Li Yunjing said, "My surname is Li, and my given name is Yunjing."

"Li Yunjing... is he the leader of the Luozhen Sect, Li Yunjing?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Chun was so shocked that he stood up abruptly, staring wide-eyed at Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing nodded. "I am unworthy to be the head of the Luozhen Sect."

At the same time, Li Yunjing also produced the Luozhen Sect.

Generally speaking, Li Yunjing would not wear the sect leader's token on his waist.

After all, this sect leader's token was made from a piece of second-grade spirit jade.

It is very valuable.

Wearing it on your waist, wouldn't that be telling others that you're a wealthy person?

This will inevitably attract some desperate individuals.

Upon seeing the sect leader's token, Shen Chun confirmed Li Yunjing's identity.

"So it was Sect Leader Li in person. Forgive my poor eyesight, I didn't recognize him. I have been disrespectful to Sect Leader Li."

Shen Chun bowed respectfully to Li Yunjing.

There was nothing he could do; Shen Chun was just a Rogue Cultivator.

No matter how much wealth he possessed, even if he could establish Myriad Treasures Pavilion, he was still just a wealthy Rogue Cultivator.

Li Yunjing is the leader of a sect.

Not to mention that he has recently risen to fame, and his reputation has spread throughout the entire Xunxian Town.

These are people that Shen Chun is far from being able to provoke.

If Li Yunjing doesn't like him,

Use some connections slightly.

Shen Chun probably wouldn't be able to handle it.

If one dies and one's spiritual essence dissipates, it is the consequence of one's own actions.

Li Yunjing waved his hand. "No need for that, let's discuss the price."

Upon hearing this, Shen Chun didn't dare to sit down and quickly spoke up.

"Everything is negotiable, everything is negotiable. If Sect Leader Li wants the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, he only needs to give 15,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stone."

Li Yunjing looked at Shen Chun.

There was some helplessness regarding Shen Chun's attitude.

This identity of mine is really useful.

That saves you over two thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stone.

However, Li Yunjing was not the kind of person who would act recklessly just because he was of special status.

"No, how about 17,700 Low-Grade Spirit Stone?" Li Yunjing said.

Shen Chun wanted to say something more.

However, he met Li Yunjing's gaze.

I suddenly realized.

If I insist on the price of 15,000.

If this gets out, wouldn't it tarnish Li Yunjing's reputation?

After all, besides Li Yunjing, there were other people who came to Shen Chun to discuss the acquisition of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

For example, the acquisition price negotiated with Shen Chun for the Clear Wind Sect was 16,300.

Shen Chun offered prices of 17,300 and 17,000 respectively, compared to others.

In short, it's all higher than 15,000.

If these people found out that I only sold 15,000, what would happen?

There's a chance people will think that Li Yunjing used his status to force me to lower the price.

After all, even a Third-Rank Sect Clear Wind Sect offered 16,300.

Upon realizing this, Shen Chun immediately nodded:

"It was my oversight; let's go as Sect Leader Li."

Li Yunjing nodded with a smile.

"Alright, it's settled then, seventeen thousand seven."

"I don't have that many Spirit Stone on me. Take me to get some."

Shen Chun said, "Sect Leader Li, there's no need to worry. I can't run away either."

I also need to prepare the relevant land deeds and such.

Li Yunjing nodded, then prepared to leave.

However, Shen Chun then spoke:

"Sect Leader Li, although I am naturally pleased that you are willing to acquire Myriad Treasures Pavilion, there are some things I need to explain to Sect Leader Li in advance."

First of all, if Sect Leader Li acquires Myriad Treasures Pavilion, he will definitely offend Clear Wind Sect.

If the Luozhen Sect and the Clear Wind Sect become enemies, Sect Leader Li, you can't blame me for not informing Sect Leader Li beforehand.

Furthermore, once Sect Leader Li reopens Myriad Treasures Pavilion, it will inevitably face various disturbances from the Clear Wind Sect.

If the Luozhen Sect cannot withstand the pressure, they cannot back out and allow me to take back the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

Shen Chun's expression was serious, with a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.

These words were spoken by Shen Chun after mustering up her courage.

After all, if Li Yunjing is angered, the consequences will be very troublesome.

Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing smiled and showed no anger.

"Don't worry, now that we've acquired Myriad Treasures Pavilion, everything from now on will be borne by the Luozhen Sect, and it has nothing to do with you."

The Luozhen Sect will not go back on its word; I can guarantee that.

Shen Chun breathed a sigh of relief and cupped his hands in thanks to Li Yunjing: "In that case, thank you very much, Sect Leader Li."

After discussing it with Shen Chun, we will proceed with the acquisition tomorrow.

Li Yunjing then left Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

After leaving Myriad Treasures Pavilion, Li Yunjing opened the sect panel.

[Sect: Luozhen Sect]

[Rank: First-Rank Sect]

[Sect Leader: Li Yunjing (Foundation Establishment Middle Stage)]

[Number of Disciples: 29 Outer Disciple (13 Early Qi Refining, 7 Mid-Stage Qi Refining, 1 Late Qi Refining), 4 Elders (2 Foundation Establishment Early Stage, 1 Foundation Establishment Late Stage, 1 Peak Foundation Establishment)]

[Reputation: Emerging Fame]

[Resources: Low-Grade Spirit Stone (6923), Mid-Grade Spirit Stone (7), Second-Rank Spirit Vein (1)...]

[Prosperity Level: 18]

[Sect Buildings: Sect Grand Hall (lv5), Spirit Field (lv4), Poultry Coop (lv5), Sect Master's cave abode (lv4), Patriarch Hall (lv4)...]

The sect's publicly available number of Spirit Stone is far from enough; it doesn't even have ten thousand.

After thinking about it, Li Yunjing decided that the only option was to borrow some Spirit Stone from the Immortal Pavilion.

Since we're all on the same side, we get more discounts.

Borrowing a loan is stress-free, and you don't have to worry about not being able to repay it.

Just after Li Yunjing left Myriad Treasures Pavilion and headed to the Immortal Pavilion.

The fifth-floor window of the Baoge Pavilion opposite Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

A woman who looked to be around thirty years old watched Li Yunjing's departing figure.

If I'm not mistaken, he should be the recently popular leader of the Luozhen Sect...

What was he doing at the Myriad Treasures Pavilion?

The woman leaned against the window, muttering to herself, looking quite puzzled.

The woman shifted her gaze and looked towards the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

"There's no time to lose. The sect is pressuring us; we need to take over Myriad Treasures Pavilion immediately."

Upon realizing this, the woman immediately summoned a disciple of the Clear Wind Sect.

"Go find Shen Chun again. This time, we must take down Myriad Treasures Pavilion."

I don't care what method you use.

If you can't finish it, don't come back.

The disciple immediately replied, "Yes."

After the disciple left the treasure pavilion and walked across the street, he arrived in the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

The disciple knocked on the door of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion and waited quietly.

Shen Chun assumed it was Li Yunjing returning, so he quickly walked over and opened the door.

Upon seeing that it was a disciple of the Clear Wind Sect, Shen Chun's expression immediately darkened.

"Wan Xing, it's you?"

Shen Chun was about to close the door immediately.

Wan Xing reached out and blocked his way, forcibly entering Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

"Shopkeeper Shen, why can't it be me?"

Wan Xing sat down as if he were in his own home.

Shen Chun looked at Wan Xing with a gloomy expression.

"Please leave. Myriad Treasures Pavilion does not welcome you."

Wan Xing raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Is that so? Has Shopkeeper Shen become so successful that he doesn't even want Spirit Stone offered to him?"

"What do you mean?" Shen Chun asked, confused.

Wan Xing said, "I came here naturally to discuss the acquisition with Shopkeeper Shen. Clear Wind Sect is generous and has decided to add another three hundred."

Sixteen thousand six, that price should satisfy you, right?

Wan Xing looked confident of victory.

To be honest, offering this price is already giving Shen Chun face.

Otherwise, there wouldn't even be this price.

Upon hearing this, Shen Chun immediately let out a cold laugh.

They want to sell Myriad Treasures Pavilion themselves for a price lower than Li Yunjing offered; how laughable.

"Please leave. Myriad Treasures Pavilion has already been sold by me," Shen Chun said.

Upon hearing this, Wan Xing's gaze immediately turned cold.

"To whom did Shopkeeper Shen sell Myriad Treasures Pavilion?"

Shen Chun snorted.

"Although I, Shen, have many shortcomings, I, Shen, would never do something like betraying someone."

You won't get a single piece of information out of Shen.

Wan Xing narrowed his eyes, a fierce glint appearing within them.

If this weren't in Xunxian Town, Wan Xing would have already made his move.

"If Shopkeeper Shen won't tell me, I'll investigate myself. However, there's one thing I need to remind Shopkeeper Shen."

The sect gave me a strict order: Myriad Treasures Pavilion must be acquired by the Clear Wind Sect.

If I fail to complete this task, the sect will not forgive me.

I don't want to die young.

If I remember correctly, Shopkeeper Shen also has family.

If I were to die young, I fear I would have to take a few people with me in my grave.
