"Hmm! I heard your ancestors were once wealthy. How did you end up in such a state?"
Li Yunjing nodded slightly and asked curiously.
"Ah! The past is unbearable to look back on!"
Li Chuanzong shook his head. If it werenât for seeing Li Yunjing and inexplicably feeling very close to him, he wouldnât have divulged the truth. He didnât want to say much about these things.
Who would want to expose their shortcomings in front of a stranger?
"Haha! I heard that you owe some money and intend to use the house to clear the debt?"
Li Yunjing didnât ask any more about the past but instead said with a smile.
"Are you from the Wang family?"
Li Chuanzong was shocked; he couldnât help but take two steps back, looking at Li Yunjing with a bit of fear.
Obviously, the Wang family wasnât a good family to deal with either!
"No! My surname is also Li. Perhaps a thousand years ago, we were from the same family!"
Li Yunjing smiled and, looking around the courtyard, said, "Your courtyard isnât bad. If refurbished, it could be a good place to live. If I bought it, would Brother Li be willing?"
"This..."
Hearing Li Yunjingâs words, Li Chuanzong showed a trace of shock.
He never thought that the Li family brother who had just walked in would want to buy his ancestral home!
This made it hard for Li Chuanzong to refuse.
Selling the ancestral home was ultimately not a good thing, but the creditor would come in three days, and he had no money to repay. The house would definitely not be saved.
If this person was willing to offer a large sum, Li Chuanzong was very willing to sell the house to Li Yunjing.
"Are you serious?"
Li Chuanzong couldnât help asking.
"Of course! Do I look like someone with nothing to do? If I wasnât sincere in purchasing, why would I waste time with you here?"
Li Yunjing smiled and said affirmatively.
"Then wait a moment, Iâll go discuss with my wife?"
Li Chuanzong asked.
"Sure!"
Li Yunjing nodded. After seeing Li Chuanzong go inside, he wandered around the courtyard.
As for the conversation between Li Chuanzong and his wife, Li Yunjing heard it clearly. Even if he didnât want to listen, it couldnât escape his ears.
The couple was discussing the price for selling the house. As for selling the ancestral home, there was no disagreement at all.
After a good quarter of an hour, Li Chuanzong came out with his wife and a four or five-year-old daughter.
"It seems youâve agreed?"
Li Yunjing raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile.
"Ah... ah? Yes!"
Li Yunjingâs question left Li Chuanzong somewhat at a loss, not understanding how this person determined that he must sell the house to him.
"Excellent! Here are ten gold ingots. This is my sincerity!"
Li Yunjing smiled, casually tossing ten gold ingots out of his sleeve, which landed in front of Li Chuanzong and his family of three!
Each gold ingot weighed ten taels!
A total of one hundred taels of gold!
This gold was enough for Li Chuanzongâs family to live worry-free for a lifetime!
Seeing so much gold, the three of them were stunned, almost unable to react, and didnât even hear what Li Yunjing said. They just stared down at the gold at their feet.
"Haha!"
Watching the three of them, Li Yunjing smiled slightly. He didnât disturb them, just quietly watched the family of three.
Among mortals, gold is the pinnacle of wealth. For gold, people commit all sorts of crimes, defying laws and morals at every moment.
But to cultivators, gold is the least valuable thing!
Sometimes even scrap iron and copper are worth a bit more than gold!
Of course, Li Yunjing didnât actually have gold. He mastered the "Gold Law" and could casually use Gold Divine Techniques to create ten gold ingots in his hand.
Now, seeing the junk he created making people go mad with excitement, Li Yunjing could only sigh softly.
"Alright! Weâll sell it!"
After a while, Li Chuanzong finally reacted, bending down to pick up the gold while loudly agreeing.
"Very well!"
Li Yunjing nodded and added, "Take the gold and live well. You can start packing up. Once youâre ready, you can leave!"
"Alright! We donât have much to take! Weâll leave right away!"
Li Chuanzong said excitedly.
The house was shabby, full of old items. Now with the gold, they didnât lack money and naturally didnât want any of the old things.
"Alright then!"
Li Yunjing shook his head, watching as the family left excitedly.
Who knows how long this family will stretch out those ten gold ingots?
But these matters were not something Li Yunjing wanted to deal with. His dealings with the Li family were over. Whether Li Chuanzongâs family lived or died in the future was no longer related to him.
Looking at the dilapidated courtyard, Li Yunjing used his mana to summon a gust of wind, blowing away the dust. Then, he conjured a water curtain to wash over the four rooms, and finally unleashed four flames to evaporate the water.
After cleaning the place, Li Yunjing released eight "Puppet Mechanism Beasts" into the various rooms to start searching for items.
The broken furniture and clothes were carried to the courtyard by the "Puppets" and piled on one side.
After nearly everything was counted, Li Yunjing entered the room where he sensed spiritual energy.
Stepping over the threshold, Li Yunjing took a quick look around. It was a room of over a hundred square meters, divided into inner and outer sections.
All the clutter had been moved out, revealing the green floor tiles.
Because Li Yunjing used his mana to clean the room, removing the dust, the scene from years ago was revealed once more.
On the green floor tiles, Li Yunjing saw a faint green glow, with traces of spiritual energy emanating from them.
