The two of them discussed until the evening, and Xiao Ningxue even brewed tea several times before they came up with conditions that both parties could accept.

Looking at Daoyan's leaving back, Lin Ji showed a satisfied look. This time he gained a lot. Tianyan Sect was worthy of being the force that dominated the Western Continent for a thousand years. He estimated that if he raised the price again, the other party would grit their teeth and agree. But forget it and be more restrained. After all, he would have to interact with the Western Continent in the future.

"Brother, when the time comes, the two continents of the north and south will also want the jade pendant of the Trial Tower. Are you also prepared to trade in this way?"

"Of course, I was willing to open the Trial Tower in order to recycle the spirit stones. Ningxue, do you still remember how much spirit stones the sect gave to ordinary disciples every month when we first left Broken Mountain and arrived at the outer sect?"

In response to Xiao Ningxue's question, Lin Ji first confirmed it, and then asked her a question in return.

"It seems that the basic amount is one spirit stone. With the sect's missions, the average disciple gets two spirit stones a month. To be honest, it's not enough."

Xiao Ningxue thought for a moment and answered that she had not experienced these things at the beginning because of Lin Ji, and she came to the conclusion by observing the situations of the disciples around her.

"Almost. In order to maintain the order of Xuantian Empire and let the monks work with peace of mind, their salaries are now several times higher than before. We have already lost a lot of spirit stones before. If it weren't for the Trial Tower, we really couldn't maintain the operation of Xuantian Empire. Now there is extra income, of course we can't let it go."

After listening to Lin Ji's words, Xiao Ningxue nodded, indicating that she understood, but she still couldn't help but continue asking out of curiosity.

"Brother, it's normal for you to be able to reasonably open a store in a city on the Western Continent, but why do you need a port for mortals?"

"I just thought that maybe in the future the mortals of Xuantian Empire could go to other continents to do business, so I mentioned it casually."

After Lin Ji finished speaking, he stood up, reached out to pull Xiao Ningxue up, and walked out of the courtyard holding her hand.

"It's getting late, Ningxue, you might as well stay here."

"…it is good."

……

In a flash, a month has passed and there are still 10 days before Lin Ji and his wife's wedding. During this time, the news of the wedding has spread throughout the East Continent. Now the inner city of Xuantian City is overcrowded with cultivators who are preparing to attend. Even the number of mortals in the outer city has increased.

Daoyan in Tianshu City also abided by the agreement very much and taught Xiao Ningxue and other formation masters the formation knowledge of the Western Continent very responsibly. Maybe it was for this reason that she seldom left Tianshu City, while other disciples of Tianyan Sect visited the surrounding area.

The demon clan finally arrived at Xuantian City today. After passing through layers of guards with the invitation left by Lin Ji, they successfully arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. At this time, they were meeting Luo Youran in the City Lord's Mansion.

In the empty hall, Luo Youran, who was sitting in the main seat at the top, put down the invitation in his hand and observed the dozen or so visitors who claimed to be from the demon clan below, among whom there was even a golden elixir.

"Are these all transformed demons? They must have been selected, all of them are handsome men and beautiful women, especially the short-haired girl standing in front, who looks like a teenager. Although she is wearing men's clothes, her appearance is too beautiful. Ningxue and I are slightly inferior to her."

While Luo Youran was thinking, Feng Tian below was getting a little impatient. Just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Qingniao with his eyes. Qingniao was afraid that he would anger Luo Youran. Feng Tian had been in a bad mood during this period because he was not satisfied with his transformation, so Qingniao stepped forward and asked.

"Lord Luo, is there any problem with the invitation? When can Daozi come?"

"Please wait a moment, Demon King. I have already sent him a message and he should be here soon."

Luo Youran saw the little movements of the two demons, replied with a smile, and waved his hand. Several chairs appeared for them to rest and wait. He took out some spiritual fruits from his savings ring and placed them on the table. Then he lowered his head to deal with other matters. The demons were guests, and with the Golden Core Demon King present, Luo Youran naturally did his best to entertain them.

More than ten minutes later, there was a sound outside the hall. Knowing that Lin Ji had arrived, Luo Youran put down the pen in his hand, stood up, and saluted the visitor with a faint smile on his face.

"Master, please take a seat."

Lin Ji didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, walked past Qingniao and other monsters, walked to the main seat and sat down, while Luo Youran stood behind him.

When Lin Ji came in, the monsters stood up from their seats and rearranged themselves. Lin Ji looked at the petite figure with short hair, and after confirming that it was Feng Tian's aura, he asked with a strange expression.

"Are you Feng Tian?"

“…It’s me.”

Feng Tian, ​​who was mistaken for a girl by Luo Youran, turned his head away, avoided Lin Ji's sight and answered reluctantly. He really didn't expect that his appearance would be so feminine after his transformation. He had been autistic for a long time and didn't want to come to Xuantian City. It was only after the ancient Wutong tree's persuasion that he followed Qingniao out. However, to Feng Tian's surprise, his appearance actually made more monsters support him.

"Very beautiful, as expected of you who has the blood of the Phoenix."

Lin Ji's praise made Feng Tian look even worse, but there was nothing he could do. His status and position were not as high as his, and he couldn't beat him, so he could only sulk with his head down. Seeing this, Qingniao hurried out to smooth things over.

"Daozi, there are twelve demons coming this time, and they can all transform perfectly. As long as they don't take action, there is basically no chance of being discovered as demons."

Hearing this, Lin Ji began to carefully look at the monsters behind Qingniao. They were all beautiful and handsome. If Qingniao had not stated it in advance, he would not have been able to tell that they were monsters. However, Lin Ji always felt that something was missing. After thinking for a while, he spoke.

"You don't have to transform completely into humans. You can show some demon features, such as tails, ears, and other features that don't affect your appearance. What I hope is that humans and demons can live in harmony in the future. I even want you to have the opportunity to appear in the city in your true form, rather than for the demons to hide their identities and simply blend in with the human race."

Lin Ji's eloquent words moved the inexperienced demons below, and they all revealed some demon characteristics. This unique style that was different from that of humans made Lin Ji very satisfied. Even the blue bird put some feathers on its clothes to show its identity. Only Feng Tian, ​​who read the most books, knew that Lin Ji was just exaggerating, but he also put some feathers on his clothes to fit in.

"It's good like this now. There's still some time before my wedding, so you can stay in the City Lord's Mansion for the time being. City Lord Luo will arrange for someone to take you around and familiarize you with the environment."

"Yes."

All the monsters responded in unison. Lin Ji smiled and gave instructions to Luo Youran behind him.

"You Ran, go arrange their accommodation first."

"Yes, Master."

After receiving the order, Luo Youran walked in front of the monsters and took a close look at Feng Tian without leaving any trace. She had made a mistake before. She never expected that such a handsome man would be a man.

"Please come with me."

After saying that, Luo Youran walked out of the hall first. The monsters bowed to Lin Ji in an unskilled manner and said goodbye before following him out one after another.
