Chapter 300: Bottom Fishing

Location: Xuanmiao City

Lin Jiang led the executives of the trading company to the East District. Then, he took out a bunch of tokens and said. From now on, this entire street belongs to me. Starting today, you can borrow houses to live in. Each steward will have their own building, and two caretakers will share one building.

"Thank you, host."

The executives cheered and expressed their gratitude. These were luxurious houses in the East District, each of them beautiful. The spiritual energy in this area was abundant, so they no longer needed to use Spirit Gathering Formations to gather spirit stones, which saved them a lot of money.

"The houses are chosen randomly, please don’t be picky."

Lin Jiang gave out the tokens in his hand. These tokens are like keys. He had already changed the formations of those mansions.

"Boss, what about me?"

Wei Lin walked up to Lin Jiang. Oh, those luxurious mansions, he wanted them too.

"But didn’t you already live here?"

"That was rented. I moved out."

Wei Lin said, why spend money on rent when there’s a free place to stay.

"Wei Lin, don’t say I didn’t tell you the path to riches. Now is a great opportunity to buy low. The houses here are selling for very cheap."

Lin Jiang said to Wei Lin, as the golden core and Nascent Soul of Xuanmiao City were repeatedly killed, a large number of them started to escape. The first reaction was a drastic drop in property prices here.

Originally, the property in Xuanmiao City was very expensive, even more so than Yunzhong City. Especially the mansions in the east district, they were extremely expensive. But now, they are almost as cheap as cabbage, less than a third of their previous prices. Lin Jiang took advantage of this and bought over thirty houses, including some shops.

"Master, you may be crazy, but I am not."

Wei Lin shrugged, showing no interest. The advanced cultivators in Xuanmiao City are all leaving, who would dare to buy fixed assets at this time? Aren’t they afraid of losing everything?

"If you don’t listen, it’s fine. You won’t become rich, kid."

Lin Jiang smiled and shook his head. Many people don’t understand his actions now. There are very few people who dare to buy low at this time in Xuanmiao City, including other shop owners.

Because Xuanmiao City is really in a slump now. There are less than one-third of the cultivators above the golden core level compared to before, and there are also fewer building foundation and qi refining cultivators. Many people are pessimistic about the future of Xuanmiao City.

But Lin Jiang is confident in Xuanmiao City, or rather, in the Tianxuan Sect. Since ancient times, no major sect has declined because of such things. It can be said that as long as the Blood Demon Ancestor dies, Xuanmiao City will recover and flourish. At that time, he can make a lot of money through these real estate properties.

Wei Lin no longer spoke, but he was very hesitant. He secretly opened a shop in Xuanmiao City, copying Lin Jiang’s actions. Basically, whatever Lin Jiang did, he made sure his shop did the same. He had been making profits before, but this time, he didn’t follow suit. He was still hesitating.

"Otherwise, I’ll buy one or two sets too? If I lose, it won’t affect me, but if I don’t lose, I’ll earn some pocket money."

Wei Lin thought to himself. The houses in Xuanmiao City are now very cheap, and he can afford to buy a few.

"Father, what about me? What about me?"

Small Shadiao also came forward, living in a luxurious mansion, who wouldn’t want that?

"You, do you want me to build a bird’s nest for you?"

"Father, you can’t do this. If I have to live in a bird’s nest, so be it. But I have a wife too, our family doesn’t mistreat women."

"Stop talking nonsense. You will live with me. I’ve kept a large luxurious mansion for myself. I will live in the backyard, and you can live in the front yard. Don’t forget, your duty is to protect me. If anything happens, you have to take charge, understand?"

Lin Jiang said. Small Shadiao, you’ve married and forgotten about your father. You’re becoming more and more unreasonable. Don’t you know that as a beast pet, your responsibility is to protect your owner, and in critical moments, you should act as a spear for them?

"You can live with me, but at night, you can’t eavesdrop on conversations."

"Huh, am I that kind of person? Zhongmiao Building is currently on a big discount. Don’t you think it would be great if I went there? Why on earth would I need to eavesdrop?"

Lin Jiang became furious. Small Shadiao underestimated him. Did he think Lin Jiang was just a nobody on Blue Star? Can’t he see that Lin Jiang is skilled and capable?

Talking about Zhongmiao Building, Small Shadiao first looked around and didn’t see Snow Woman. He immediately exchanged a glance with Wei Lin, smirked, and said that recently, Xuanmiao City’s economy was bad and even the fairy in Zhongmiao Building was struggling. They needed to go help.

·······

In the sky above Xuanmiao City, a cultivator from Tianxuan Sect slowly approached. The higher-ups of Tianxuan Sect immediately went to greet him.

"Greetings, Ancestor."

"No need for formalities, we have already borrowed the Tongtian Mirror. I wonder if the aura of the Blood Demon Ancestor has been refined."

"Reporting to the Ancestor, it has been refined. I specifically went to North State and found a tribe that was wiped out by the Blood Demon Ancestor. After three days, I refined three strands of the Blood Demon’s aura."

"Thank you for your hard work."

The Tao Achieving cultivator from Tianxuan Sect nodded. Blood Demon Ancestor was extremely cautious in his killings in Xuanmiao City, leaving no clues. They could only search in North State.

On the ground, there was a jade bottle. The Tao Achieving cultivator from Tianxuan Sect opened it, and a strand of red aura floated out. He used a spell to stabilize it, and then he used the Tongtian Mirror. The Tongtian Mirror had a simple appearance, similar to an ordinary bronze mirror. But as the Tao Achieving cultivator infused it with spiritual energy, the Tongtian Mirror immediately underwent changes.

"Boom"

The Tongtian Mirror emitted a ray of light, forming a light curtain in the sky. Within the light curtain, a middle-aged man appeared.

"It’s him."

"Junior brother has seen him before."

"This person has been in Xuanmiao City for several years, quite mysterious."

A Void Achieving said, he was previously in charge of Xuanmiao City’s Void Achieving. He had seen the Blood Demon Ancestor in Xuanmiao City, but at that time, the Blood Demon Ancestor had changed his appearance, so he didn’t notice.

"To think that he hid in Xuanmiao City for so many years, it is truly a disgrace for us."

"The Blood Demon Ancestor’s disguising skills are impressive. It is normal for junior brother not to have noticed, no need to worry."

The few of them discussed, their legs were getting numb. The Blood Demon Ancestor had hidden right under their noses for so long. If they had discovered it earlier, things would not have turned out this way.

The cultivator from Tianxuan Sect didn’t say much. They just used the Tongtian Mirror to check the surroundings of Blood Demon Ancestor and try to determine their location.

"Uh-oh, Blood Demon Ancestor sensed it and started moving quickly."

"It’s okay, they can’t escape."

The cultivator from Tianxuan Sect said, as the Blood Demon Ancestor in the mirror sensed being watched and started moving fast. No matter how they moved or changed appearance, it didn’t matter as the Tongtian Mirror had all the control.

"Two people, go ahead and stop the Blood Demon Ancestor. They should be in Liang State."

The cultivator from Tianxuan Sect has already determined the general location of the Blood Demon Ancestor. They should be hiding in Liang State, which was expected. They wouldn’t dare to go to a place like Zhongzhou where there are many Tao Achieving cultivators who can easily kill them.

Zhou Huaiying also stepped forward at this time. The cultivator from Tianxuan Sect captured a strand of breath into a compass treasure and handed it to Zhou Huaiying and another person. They quickly bowed and left.

"Senior, the two senior brothers may not be able to catch the Blood Demon Ancestor. Let me go as well."

"No, you stay here and guard Xuanmiao City. I’ve already ordered the activation of the mountain protection formation. This time, I will personally go."

The cultivator from Tianxuan Sect said that the Blood Demon Ancestor is a great threat and they cannot let him escape again. He needs to take action personally.

After giving the order, the Tao Achieving cultivator from Tianxuan Sect rushed to the Liang State. His speed was not fast because he had to use the Tongtian Mirror to monitor the Blood Demon Ancestor. The Blood Demon Ancestor was moving at high speed and constantly changing directions, so they needed real-time updates.

Two hours later, the Tao Achieving cultivator from Tianxuan Sect saw the figures of Zhou Huaiying and another person in the Tongtian Mirror. They had already found the Blood Demon Ancestor and launched an attack together. The Blood Demon Ancestor was no match for them, but he escaped quickly and kept evading.

"What’s wrong with Zhou Huaiying? He let him escape twice."

The Tao Achieving cultivator from Tianxuan Sect watched the battle and felt a little angry. The Blood Demon Ancestor’s Art of Blood Escape was very famous, but they had already found ways to counter it.

One of the methods was to use a treasure that could freeze the surroundings when he used his escape technique, preventing him from turning into blood and escaping. However, Zhou Huaiying acted too late and the Blood Demon Ancestor still managed to run away.

Another method was to use a seventh-level Sealing Symbol to directly seal the space. But once again, Zhou Huaiying’s timing was too slow and both treasures were wasted.

"Huaiying has been in the Divine Kingdom for too long. After coming out, he hasn’t fought against a Tao Achieving taoist friend of the same level. It seems that I have to remind him to practice more in the future."

The Tao Achieving cultivator from Tianxuan Sect didn’t doubt much. He just felt that Zhou Huaiying hadn’t fought in the Void Achieving realm before, so his combat experience was lacking. He needed to practice more in the future, or else he might be at a disadvantage in battles against enemies.
