"use?"
When Jin Peng heard this, he immediately showed a sneer on his face: "Fellow Taoist, are you going crazy because of your loss? My dealings with you are just business. What do I buy for, does it have anything to do with you!"
Jin Peng didn't know whether it was because he had a strong personality and didn't know how to beat around the bush, or he was just arrogant, but he insulted Lu Li when he opened his mouth.
Lu Li sighed softly, "That's all. Since you have no intention of trading, let's just forget about it."
After saying that, he stood up and walked toward the gate. Lu Li didn't want to comment too much on Jin Peng, but he was determined not to sell the Ghost Fruit to the Jin family.
"etc!"
Seeing Lu Li leaving just as he said, Jin Peng suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice, "You asked me to come over but you refused to take out the ghost fruit. Are you sincerely teasing me?"
"Do you know what will happen if I offend my Jin family?"
"Neuropathy!"
Lu Li glanced at Jin Peng indifferently, and finally felt the urge to beat him up.
"you!!!"
Jin Peng had never been so angry before. When he heard these three words, he became furious and pointed at Lu Li angrily: "Mr. Xi, kill him! I will bear all the costs!"
"kill me?"
Lu Li's eyes instantly burst out with a biting cold light, and the rolling momentum rushed towards Jin Peng with a roar like a river bursting its banks. Jin Peng didn't even have a chance to react, so he flew out with a roar, knocking the people behind him. The round table was smashed into pieces!
Xi Kang's expression changed greatly, and he stepped between the two of them: "Fellow Taoist, please don't be impulsive! This is Bei'an City, and if you kill people here, you will never escape! And..."
Sensing the aura and pressure on Lu Li, Xi Kang was extremely shocked. Only then did he realize that Lu Li's cultivation level was not even a bit higher than his own! He hurriedly issued a warning to prevent Lu Li from being carried away by anger and killing Jin Peng directly.
However, before he could finish speaking, Lu Li had already walked away, leaving only a cold voice: "Don't try to anger me again, or you will bear the consequences!"
Xi Kang went to help Jin Peng, but Jin Peng pushed him away angrily: "Trash!"
Hearing these words, Xi Kang's old face suddenly became extremely ugly. If it weren't for the reward of those immortal stones and the opportunity to realize Taoism in a high-grade treasure land of the Jin family, how could he, a dignified immortal, be so humble?
Jin Peng stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at the door and gritting his teeth: "Don't be shameless, just wait, I must let you know how powerful my Jin family is!"
On the other side, Lu Li returned to the fourth floor from the fifth floor and knocked on An Ming's door.
After a while, the door opened, and An Ming was slightly surprised and said: "Hey! Senior, you just came back. I searched for you for a long time but couldn't find you. I thought you had come back long ago."
Lu Li smiled slightly and said, "I went out to visit other places and I have something I want to ask you. Is that okay?"
"It's not inconvenient. Senior, please come in and talk." An Ming smiled and stepped aside, extending his hand to invite Lu Li into the room. His respectful attitude made Lu Li's previous worries disappear.
An Ming was no more than a few hundred years older than Jin Peng, but his conduct and vision were far behind that of Jin Peng.
Lu Li always respects me a foot, and I respect others a foot. If An Ming treats him well, he will not embarrass An Ming. When he sees this, he smiles, nods, and walks in.
"Senior, please have tea."
After sitting down, An Ming poured Lu Li a cup of tea.
Lu Li nodded and then said, "I want to ask you, how much do you know about the Jin family?"
"The Jin family?"
An Ming pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "The Jin family is the largest family in our Linyuan City. It occupies more than a dozen mineral veins in the north of Linyuan City, and its income is very considerable."
"Together, the direct descendants of the Jin family, as well as some servants, servants, and guards, there are about three thousand people, including more than two thousand people below the distraction stage, four to five hundred above the distraction stage, and more than ten Mahayana level experts. people......"
"In addition, there are three people who are known to be earthly immortals, namely the family leader Jin Geji, the great elder Jin Yunzhong, and the external protector Xi Kang..."
Listening to An Ming's words, Lu Li was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that the Jin family was stronger than he thought.
Fortunately, there are not many people in the Jin family who can really pose a threat to him. As long as he is careful, there will probably not be too much of a problem.
But when he heard the last sentence, Lu Li couldn't help but frown and said, "Obviously? Apart from the three powerful Earth Immortals, are there other Earth Immortals in the Jin family?"
"Seniors don't know that the main reason why the Jin family has so many resources is the Qingxuan Sect. Let's put it this way, the current ninth elder of the Qingxuan Sect is the brother of Jin Geji, the head of the Jin family... ..”
In the Nanhuang Immortal Domain, whether a family is strong or not depends not only on how many mines and spiritual veins it occupies, but more importantly, whether it has a background among the three major forces.
The Jin family is one of those families that is not weak in strength and has a backing in the Qingxuan Sect, the leader of the three major forces. Many disciples of the Jin family have joined Qingxuan Sect and have high status.
Therefore, just talking about the Linyuan Jin family is completely insufficient to summarize the Jin family's strength.
But fortunately, the cultivation of the ninth elder was only in the late stage of Earth Immortal. Even if he came in person, Lu Li would not be without the strength to fight.
To be precise, with Lu Li's cultivation at the peak of the Earth Immortal, he actually belongs to the people on the top of the first-level sky tower. In the Nanhuang Immortal Domain, there are only a few people who can pose a threat to him.
After getting the news from the Jin family, Lu Li returned to his room and started practicing cross-legged.
Although the aura of rules in the inn room was not as good as the outside world, it was still much richer than a place like the Immortal City in the Lower Realm. Naturally, Lu Li would not waste his time.
Naturally, Jin Peng was not willing to let Lu Li go easily. He secretly bought some informants and kept an eye on Lu Li. However, Lu Li never left the room since he started practicing.
It wasn't until An Ming came to see him on this day at the end of July that Lu Li ended his training. Then he went downstairs to pay the rent and headed towards the Northern City Lord's Mansion together.
Bei'an City is under the jurisdiction of the Qingxuan Sect, and the city lord's palace naturally also belongs to the Qingxuan Sect. However, the position of the city lord is not fixed and is held by senior officials of the Qingxuan Sect who are out on missions.
Moreover, in order to prevent anyone from enriching his own pockets and embezzling Qingxuanzong's property, the position of city lord will be rotated every once in a while, so there is no hereditary situation in the city lord's mansion.
They will not interfere too much with the development of family chambers of commerce in the city, as long as they pay taxes or make offerings regularly.
Today's City Lord's Mansion Square is quite lively. Dozens of people have gathered here early. These people are preparing to take the 'Void Boat' back to the Nanhuang Immortal Domain.
There is a dedicated person outside the gate of the city lord's palace who is responsible for registration and issuing passage orders.
Lu Li and An Ming arrived, and each handed over 50,000 top-quality spiritual stones. After receiving the token pass, they also walked into the square of the city lord's palace.
As he walked, An Ming sighed and muttered that the charge was too high. It was obvious that fifty thousand top-quality spiritual stones were still a bit too much for him.
The normal departure time of the void boat is at noon.
It was still early, so everyone was either talking to each other or meditating in the free space nearby. The arrival of Lu Li and An Ming also attracted a lot of people's attention, but most of them were focused on An Ming...
