"This has nothing to do with the Awakening God Tower. I don't care. You can do whatever you want after you leave the tower," the middle-aged manager said calmly.
"Sir, that's not appropriate."
A woman's voice came from outside the Awakening of the Gods Tower. Her voice sounded a little angry.
A moment later, a woman in a blue warrior's outfit walked in with her hands behind her back. She had a cold expression on her face.
"Miss, why are you here?" The fat second manager quickly went up and greeted her respectfully.
"I happened to pass by and heard someone outside saying that the Awakening God Tower is bullying the Yun Family. How could I not come and take a look?" The woman didn't even look at the second manager as she spoke.
The woman who just came in looked like a young girl, but her posture was generous and calm. She also had the temperament of an expert. Needless to say, everyone knew that she was the daughter of a wealthy family.
When she walked into the room and stood still, Xiao Lingyu saw that she was holding a leather whip that was coiled into a circle behind her back.
When she saw the leather whip, Xiao Lingyu subconsciously felt that this woman had some violent tendencies.
"The Yun Family's manager may be a little disappointing, but we can train him ourselves. Lord Liu, you don't have to worry about it. As for these cultivators who just ascended, they clearly said that they wanted to become a member of the Yun Family. Now that they've woken up, they've been deceived by despicable people and want to go back on their words. The Yun Family will never allow this," the eldest daughter of the Yun Family said firmly.
"Woman, why are you so unreasonable? We've already said that we'll return everything that the Yun Family has done for us. We just ascended and won't be of much use to the Yun Family. Why do you have to force us?" Jiang Lanchang said angrily.
"To be honest, it's not a big deal, but the Yun Family has worked hard in this gourd city for many years. We have our own dignity. How can we allow you to play with us like this?" the eldest daughter of the Yun Family replied.
For some prestigious families, face and dignity were often more important than their lives.
"Tsk, isn't it just for face? Is it that honorable to squabble with weaklings like us who just ascended? Don't tell me that the Yun Family is constantly increasing its strength just to show off in front of us newcomers? "Jiang Lanchang's mouth was still very sharp, and her words were filled with sarcasm and ridicule.
"If we can't even deal with you, how can the Yun family establish itself in Gourd City? If even you so-called newcomers can casually trample on my Yun Family's dignity, who will give my Yun Family any face in the future? "Yun Family's Eldest Miss also spoke with conviction.
"I don't care about your Yun family's face or what's inside. I just want Eldest Young Miss to understand one thing. Your Yun family wants face, and our Spirit Awakening Tower also wants face. You guys caused trouble here and even attacked our Spirit Awakening Tower's Spirit Awakening Tower. That's because you guys attacked our Spirit Awakening Tower first. Seeing as how the Yun Family and our Awakening God Tower have been cooperating well for so many years, I won't go to the City Lord's Mansion to speak. Eldest Miss, you should bring your Second Steward outside to argue. Our Spirit Awakening Tower still needs to do business, so we won't entertain Eldest Miss. "The middle-aged steward waved his hand impatiently.
Yun Family's Eldest Miss glared angrily. Blue veins appeared on the back of her hands that gripped the whip. However, a moment later, those blue veins were covered by her smooth, white skin. She smiled faintly and said, "Since Sir mentioned the City Lord's Mansion, then my Yun family will go to the City Lord's Mansion to argue."
"Let's go!"
Yun Family's Eldest Miss led the Second Steward out of the Spirit Awakening Tower.
The middle-aged steward leisurely returned upstairs. Judging from his expression, he seemed to be certain that even Yun Family's Eldest Miss wouldn't dare to make a big fuss in the Spirit Awakening Tower.
"Why are you leaving just like that? You don't even want the Yang Crystals?" Jiang Lanchang said with a smile.
"Don't be happy too early. This matter isn't over yet," Qing Xuan said with a frown.
"Didn't you hear her say that the Yun family is going to the City Lord's Mansion to seek redress?" Yueru's expression was somewhat disdainful.
"We'll deal with whatever comes our way. What's there to be afraid of!" Miao Ying said even more directly.
Xiao Lingyu felt a headache coming on. His wives were all prideful. Apart from himself, they wouldn't submit to anyone else. Even if the heavens wanted to make things difficult for them, they would still dare to rush up and poke a big hole in the heavens.
In fact, Xiao Lingyu also knew that the reason why they were so fearless was because of their firm belief in him.
They believed that even if the heavens collapsed, their husband would be able to support them in a safe corner.
The Yun family obviously wouldn't let this matter go. With Xiao Lingyu's current strength, he simply couldn't face them. However, since he was able to find his friends and family in such a short time after ascending, it was worth it even if he offended the Yun family.
But now, he didn't have the Primal Chaos Manual or the Demon Sealing Pagoda. How was he going to arrange for his friends and family?
Even if he allowed them to stay by his side, the Dingmao Room that he owned wouldn't be able to fit so many people. Furthermore, the Dingmao Room was a place where the Awakening God Tower did business. He definitely wouldn't allow all of the Awakening God Tower's friends and family to squeeze in.
Just as Xiao Lingyu was in a dilemma, Miling also came down from upstairs. He patted Xiao Lingyu's shoulder and said, "I have a residence in the city. Although it's not big, it's still a place to stay. Brother Xiao, if you don't mind, you can arrange for everyone to stay there first."
"Fellow Daoist Miling is really considerate. I was worried about this matter, and you came to help me in my hour of need," Xiao Lingyu said meaningfully.
"Brother Xiao, please don't misunderstand. Lord Steward informed me and asked me to come down and help. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known that there was such a matter downstairs," Miling explained.
"Then, thank you very much, Lord Steward and Miling." Xiao Lingyu cupped his fists and thanked them.
"It's not a big deal. Brother Xiao, you don't have to be so courteous. Let's go. I'll bring you over to take a look," Miling said generously.
Walking on the streets of Gourd City, Miling whispered to Xiao Lingyu, "You were introduced by me. If you cause trouble, I'll be in trouble too. Brother Xiao, you have to be careful when you're on Gourd Island in the future. Don't offend people that you shouldn't offend or can't afford to offend. The Awakening God Tower's Awakening God Tower's Awakening God Tower has more freedom. The tower doesn't give us many restrictions, but similarly, if anything happens outside the tower, the Awakening God Tower won't interfere. At most, they'll find another person to replace you. "
"Thank you for your reminder, Brother Mi." Xiao Lingyu nodded sincerely.
Xiao Lingyu could guess that the reason the Lord Steward let Miling come down from the third floor was probably because he was introduced to the Awakening God Tower by Miling. There shouldn't be any other deeper intentions.
"As for the Yun Clan saying that they want to go to the City Lord's Mansion, I don't think they're that stupid. There's a strict ban on private fights in the city. Just now, in the Awakening God Tower, it was their second steward who attacked you first. They violated the ban first. Even if their clan is big, the City Lord's Mansion won't be able to help them. They definitely won't go and ask for trouble."
Miling first comforted him, then said worriedly, "However, the Yun Clan has been in Gourd City for many years. It can be said that they have deep roots. There are countless experts in the clan, and they even have a Nirvana Realm expert. Not to mention ordinary Immortal Realm cultivators, even the other big and small factions on Gourd Island rarely dare to fight with them. The Awakening God Tower isn't afraid of the Yun Clan looking for trouble. They don't have the guts, but Brother Xiao, you have to be careful in the future. Today, Brother Xiao also saw that the Yun Clan didn't care much about the ban on fighting in the city. "
Under Miling's instructions and guidance, it took less than half an hour for everyone to arrive at a maple forest in the north of the city, just like the Awakening God Tower.
This maple forest in the north of the city was actually a residential area. There were many small courtyards here, which were the private residences of the city's long-term residents.
The fiery red maple leaves connected together, rising and falling with the wind, like a warm sea of fire.
"The scenery here isn't bad." Anya said with satisfaction.
"Let's buy a house here in the future." Jiang Lanchang said.
"The houses here aren't cheap. Look at the smallest courtyard, which is only five or six feet wide, but it costs nearly a million Yang Crystals to buy it. And that's only if a cultivator is willing to sell it." Miling said.
"It doesn't matter. Our husband is very capable. No matter where he goes, he's always rich." Jiang Lanchang didn't care.
Miling wanted to say that this was the World of Immortals, so it was different, but he smiled and didn't dampen the mood.
After walking for a while, Miling led everyone to a small courtyard.
The courtyard door seemed to be made of steel, and there was a palm print on it. Miling pressed his left palm on the palm print, then released his power and chanted an incantation, and the big iron door slowly opened.
There were seven or eight rooms in the courtyard, which looked like a courtyard house. There was a big tree in the middle, but this tree almost occupied the entire space of the courtyard.
"Hehe, my humble house is a bit shabby. Everyone, please bear with it for a while." Miling looked at the dissatisfied faces of the women and said with a dry smile.
"How many Yang Crystals is your house worth?" Jiang Lanchang asked curiously.
"It cost 2.3 million Yang Crystals to buy it." Miling replied.
"Then for a Spirit Awakening Expert like Brother Mi, how many years does it take to earn 2.3 million Yang Crystals?" Jiang Lanchang continued to ask.
"Uh … if it's a normal shift, it would take five million years." Miling paused for a moment before replying.
"You only earn half a Yang Crystal a year on average?" Jiang Lanchang said in surprise.
Miling was even more embarrassed. For a Spirit Awakening Expert, accumulating wealth was indeed slow, but the advantage was that it was stable.
Many cultivators who went out on adventures didn't earn much, and it was very dangerous. As the saying goes, if you always wander in Jianghu, how could you not get killed?
However, cultivators in the World of Immortals didn't have to worry about their lifespans. The most they had was time. For cultivators who didn't have great ambitions, living a stable life was undoubtedly the best choice.
