Gou Zaixiu Immortal World Gets A Wife

Chapter 4: Expressing Gratitude

Li Guanxuan wandered around the mobile stalls in Dongjiefang Market for half an hour before selling two first-grade medium-grade protective talismans and two first-grade low-grade return-to-yuan pills.

He earned seventeen low-grade spirit stones, one less than the market price.

He still had twenty-one talismans and four return-to-yuan pills on hand... but he couldn't sell them at the stall anymore.

Li Guanxuan vaguely felt that when he took out the first-grade medium-grade protective talisman, many cultivators' gazes fell on him.

If he were to sell the remaining talismans and return-to-yuan pills at the stall, he might really attract the attention of robbers...

Li Guanxuan sighed inwardly. It seemed that he had to go to a shop, at least for safety.

In this world, it really didn't allow the lower-level scattered cultivators to survive.

Finally, Li Guanxuan arrived outside a grandly decorated shop. A faint white mist emanated from the surroundings, and a glimpse of lustrous glass could be seen flashing by. This large shop was guarded by a formation, even Foundation Building cultivators would find it difficult to break through in a short time.

The sign read: Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.

Li Guanxuan knew about Myriad Manifestations Pavilion. It was a super shop in the cultivation world, where everything could be found.

Li Guanxuan entered the shop, and the interior was splendidly decorated, exuding an air of luxury everywhere.

A young man doing odd jobs saw Li Guanxuan and immediately approached him with a smile on his face, politely asking, "Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"

"I want to sell some things," Li Guanxuan stated his purpose.

The young man nodded with a smile, slightly bowing and gesturing, "Please follow me."

Soon, Li Guanxuan was led to a dark room. Candlelight flickered, and an old man dressed as a merchant suddenly appeared behind the counter, smiling and saying, "What would you like to sell, sir?"

As the young man tactfully stepped back, Li Guanxuan looked at the clone in front of him and said, "Twenty-one first-grade medium-grade protective talismans and four first-grade low-grade return-to-yuan pills."

In Myriad Manifestations Pavilion, each transaction could not be less than one hundred spirit stones.

Of course, Myriad Manifestations Pavilion would not disclose any information about the seller to anyone.

The shopkeeper straightforwardly said, "Six low-grade spirit stones for each talisman, and the return-to-yuan pills at the normal market price, totaling one hundred and thirty low-grade spirit stones."

A loss of more than forty spirit stones...

Li Guanxuan sighed helplessly in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. Compared to these dozens of spirit stones, safety was the most important.

After completing the transaction, Li Guanxuan also purchased one hundred first-grade talisman papers, ten bottles of spirit blood cinnabar, one thousand jin of spirit rice, and some spirit vegetables and meat... totaling ninety low-grade spirit stones.

The shopkeeper set the list on fire and smiled at Li Guanxuan, asking, "Are you a first-grade medium-grade talisman master?"

Li Guanxuan nodded.

The shopkeeper continued, "Judging from the quality of these talismans, about eight of them are drawn rather roughly and obscurely, gradually improving later, showing a bit of skill. I suppose you have just stepped into the first-grade medium-grade level...

I don't know if you're interested in buying some symbol-making methods like the Frost Symbol or the Flame Symbol. They're not expensive, only ten low-grade spirit stones for two symbol-making methods. If you can draw a first-grade medium-grade symbol, you can sell it for at least seven or eight spirit stones."

"That's fine," Li Guanxuan nodded in agreement. After all, he could only draw protective talismans. If he learned the drawing methods of two more symbols, besides increasing his income, he would also have two more life-saving methods.

Hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled and said, "The Exploding Spirit Symbol is a more powerful symbol. The symbol-making method only costs ten low-grade spirit stones."

Li Guanxuan: "..."

Truly worthy of being a branch shopkeeper of Myriad Manifestations Pavilion, he had a knack for sales.

Li Guanxuan said, "I have a friend who needs a dual cultivation technique. Do you have any recommendations, shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper looked at Li Guanxuan, who was slightly supporting his waist, pondered for two seconds, and asked, "Is your friend's physical condition similar to yours? If so, I recommend the Yin-Yang Foundation Building Life Technique. It's not expensive, only three thousand spirit stones. With three thousand spirit stones, you can touch the threshold of Foundation Building and make a stable profit."

Li Guanxuan laughed dryly, "My friend doesn't have that many spirit stones."

The shopkeeper suddenly realized, then smiled and said, "The lowest price for a dual cultivation secret technique is five hundred spirit stones..."

"That's alright, I'll go back and talk to my friend."

"Understood, understood..."

"By the way, how much does a mid-grade Qi Gathering Pill cost?"

"Fifteen low-grade spirit stones per pill."

"Give me two... and also some things to replenish qi and blood, just a little bit."

"..."

After leaving the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion, Li Guanxuan didn't dare to stay in the East Street Market for even a moment. He blended into the crowd and left directly.

On the way, Li Guanxuan was very cautious. He was truly worried that Azure Serenity City would suddenly erupt in a battle at the Foundation Building level, and it would affect him, a small Karamee.

After all, Azure Serenity City is currently very unstable. If he could avoid staying, he would try his best not to stay.

When he was almost home, Li Guanxuan finally relaxed a little.

Wen Rongxin had been waiting in the courtyard, occasionally tiptoeing to see if her husband had returned.

Until she saw Li Guanxuan's figure, Wen Rongxin hurriedly ran to the door and welcomed her husband back.

Li Guanxuan embraced Wen Rongxin's slender waist and walked into the house, smiling and saying, "I bought a lot of things on this trip. At least for the next year or so, we won't need to go out."

"Mm..."

Wen Rongxin leaned against Li Guanxuan's chest, her face blushing.

When she saw Li Guanxuan take out so many spiritually rich rice, vegetables, and meat, Wen Rongxin couldn't help but slightly open her rosy lips, her face filled with disbelief.

"There's... too much... it will spoil."

"You're so silly. Look at what these things are. How could they spoil?"

Li Guanxuan lightly tapped Wen Rongxin's smooth forehead and took out a storage bag to show her.

With a storage bag, there was no need to worry about food spoiling.

Wen Rongxin rubbed her forehead, a layer of mist forming in her almond-shaped eyes from the pain. However, her face showed a hint of joy, and she whispered, "It must be expensive."

"You go cook, I'll go next door and invite Chen Yinshan and his wife to have dinner at our place."

Li Guanxuan smiled and left after speaking.

Wen Rongxin let out a small sigh. A storage bag would cost at least ten low-grade spirit stones.

But she couldn't say anything. After all, Li Guanxuan was the one in charge at home.

When Chen Yinshan and his wife came in, Zhao Guili also went to the kitchen to help, leaving only the two men chatting in the hall.

"It's different when you have a wife. The house is much cleaner." Chen Yinshan sipped his tea and laughed.

Li Guanxuan took out six low-grade spirit stones and handed them to Chen Yinshan, saying, "These are spirit stones for talisman paper. Keep them."

Cultivators living in the slums were not wealthy.

When Li Guanxuan couldn't go out to buy talisman paper and cinnabar in the past, it was Chen Yinshan who personally went and even paid for the materials in advance, a total of four low-grade spirit stones.

"It's too much."

"My talisman skills have improved a lot recently. When I run out of talisman paper in the future, I'll have to trouble you."

"Alright, I'll accept them then."

Chen Yinshan picked up his teacup and smiled, "I'll use tea as a substitute for wine. I wish you a prosperous immortal fortune. When you become a second-stage talisman master in the future, don't forget to take care of us."

"We're neighbors, we should take care of each other."

Li Guanxuan also picked up his teacup, and the two of them finished their drinks.

Soon, the food was ready.

During the meal, Zhao Guili smiled and said, "Rongxin, I also went from being a mortal warrior to a cultivator. If you have any questions, feel free to come to me."

"Okay, thank you."

Wen Rongxin's eyes showed gratitude.

Whether it was a warrior or a cultivator, it was better to have someone guide you than to fumble around on your own.
