“Qi Tian, how come you’re here?” Huang Liuyan suddenly saw Qi Tian, first delighted, but then she immediately became worried. She quickly communicated with Qi Tian through a sound transmission, “Be careful, Cheng Daoran is here. You mustn’t let him discover your whereabouts?”

“Cheng Daoran is here? Didn’t he buy a dead estate in Guihua District? Shouldn’t he be cleaning it up at this moment?” Qi Tian asked, surprised.

Huang Liuyan didn’t know how Qi Tian found out about Cheng Daoran buying the dead estate in Guihua District. This wasn’t the place for them to have a long conversation. She conveyed through sound transmission, “He thought he could find some decent cultivation resources by buying the dead estate, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment. There are hardly any valuables inside. The spirit stones he lost this time are at least over two million middle-grade spirit stones, which has nearly driven him mad. He’s fuming right now. You need to be careful; if he finds you now, you definitely won’t have any good coming your way.”

Qi Tian almost laughed out loud. Two million middle-grade spirit stones were definitely not a small amount. For Cheng Daoran, it might not hurt him fundamentally, but it was certainly a big blow to his finances.

“Sister Yan, do you have enough resources for your cultivation? If not, just tell me, and I will give you some more,” Qi Tian said.

“There’s no need, I still have plenty of the spirit stones you gave me last time. Qi Tian, it’s not easy for you to struggle alone outside, better keep them for yourself.”

Just as Huang Liuyan and Qi Tian were about to say more, they heard someone calling out, “Junior Sister, who are you talking to?”

It was Cheng Daoran’s voice. Huang Liuyan was startled but then calmed down immediately and said, “I have a guest here, asking me about some matters.”

Cheng Daoran squeezed through the crowd and looked at Qi Tian uninhibitedly. Qi Tian smiled and nodded at Cheng Daoran, saying, “Greetings, senior.”

Cheng Daoran failed to recognize Qi Tian. The number of times he had met Qi Tian were few and far between; he could count them on the fingers of one hand. He really couldn’t distinguish any features of Qi Tian’s, and anyway, Qi Tian had changed his appearance now, even specially altering his eyes. It wasn’t just Cheng Daoran; even Huang Liuyan, who was quite familiar with Qi Tian, had not been able to recognize him.

Cheng Daoran said, “What are you asking about? Speak up, maybe I can give you some advice.”

Qi Tian replied, “It’s just some minor issues; I wouldn’t dare to trouble the senior.”

“It’s no trouble at all; just say it. Everyone in the National Master Manor knows I, Cheng Daoran, am most willing to help the younger generation. If you don’t believe me, you can ask my Junior Sister. Junior Sister, isn’t that right?”

In front of outsiders, Huang Liuyan couldn’t possibly expose Cheng Daoran’s true nature, so she unwillingly nodded in agreement.

Qi Tian sneered inwardly. He knew some things about Cheng Daoran. This so-called Mansion Young Master indeed liked to support the younger generation, but with two prior conditions: one, the juniors must not threaten his position. The National Master Manor had documentation of at least a dozen juniors who were harmed by Cheng Daoran, not to mention those without evidence. Another condition was that Cheng Daoran never did a losing deal; those juniors helped by him had to swear loyalty to him or obey him, with him as their leader. If they refused, there was no way one could even borrow a single spirit stone from Cheng Daoran.

Qi Tian said, “Since the senior insists on inquiring, then I will discuss it with the senior. I was asking this amiable-looking senior about where to buy Three-Turns Heaven Earth Pills. My financial means are limited, so I’m looking to purchase a few low-grade Three-Turns Heaven Earth Pills. Senior, do you have them in stock?”

Cheng Daoran asked, “What price do you plan to offer for them?”

Qi Tian raised a finger and said, “One hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones each. Isn’t that a sincere enough price?”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Daoran nearly spat a mouthful of water in Qi Tian’s face. He realized this was just a fool. He couldn’t be bothered to talk to Qi Tian anymore and turned to Huang Liuyan: “Junior Sister, I know you are kind-hearted, but in the future, when you meet such a fool, keep your distance early to avoid being infected by them.”

After speaking, Cheng Daoran waved over two men, then pointed at Qi Tian and ordered, “Get him out of here. From now on, he’s not welcome in the National Master Manor, nor will we do business with him.”

The two cultivators were completely obedient to Cheng Daoran, and without a word, they began to usher Qi Tian away.

Qi Tian hadn’t expected Cheng Daoran to be so overbearing. Since he couldn’t have a confrontation with Cheng Daoran, he had no choice but to put on an indignant expression and leave resentfully. He didn’t even have a chance to make a gesture to Huang Liuyan for fear that doing so would raise Cheng Daoran’s suspicions.

After leaving, Qi Tian continued to ride his flying sword at a low altitude, heading toward the next place where dead estate goods were being sold.

It took him two full days to visit all the potential places where he could find a good deal. The result wasn’t much, but it was still satisfactory. He bought three items in total, all of which were selected after careful detection using the sensing function of the Heavenly Dao Engine for Spirit Qi. Among them was a black, paint-like object that looked like half of a black pot’s bottom. It didn’t look like anything valuable from any angle, but the reaction of the Heavenly Dao Engine to it was extremely strong.
