Chapter 179: Why Aren’t We Moving Yet?
"Do you want to settle in our village? Then just having a house won’t be enough; you’ll need to buy land too."
"I plan to buy two acres of land," Ye Qinxian quickly nodded.
Then she immediately asked, "Auntie, whose house is this?"
Upon hearing this, the elderly woman said, "This house belongs to Uncle Zeng. He is currently living at Li Langjun’s home, so this house has been left vacant. If you want to buy this house, I can take you to find Uncle Zeng…"
"Thank you very much, Auntie," Ye Qinxian gratefully replied.
Soon, the helpful aunt led Ye Qinxian to a large courtyard.
On the way, the aunt bumped into a few other women, and after explaining Ye Qinxian’s situation, they all followed her to this place.
"Girl, you haven’t married yet, have you? We have plenty of excellent young men in our village…"
Seeing Ye Qinxian alone, many of the women couldn’t help but awaken their matchmaking instincts.
"Auntie, I don’t want to marry yet; let me settle down first," Ye Qinxian declined.
Before long, they arrived at a large courtyard!
"Uncle Zeng, Uncle Zeng…"
"Li Langjun, are you home?"
The main gate of the courtyard opened, revealing a man who looked to be in his twenties.
This man was Li Xiaojun.
"Li Langjun, this young lady wants to buy Uncle Zeng’s house…"
The women quickly explained Ye Qinxian’s purpose.
After listening, Li Xiaojun looked at Ye Qinxian with a meaningful glance, then stepped aside.
He had already figured out Ye Qinxian’s background—a Great Ascension stage powerhouse who was very beautiful but had suffered serious injuries.
It was obvious that her injuries were from the talisman attack he had sent to Tuoba Ye!
"Come in; Uncle Zeng is inside," Li Xiaojun said to the group.
Quickly, everyone followed Li Xiaojun into the courtyard.
This courtyard was a three-section compound. The young man led the group to the front courtyard’s reception area, then went to find Uncle Zeng.
Before long, Uncle Zeng arrived.
"You want to buy my house?"
"Yes…"
After a brief negotiation, Uncle Zeng sold his house for three taels of silver.
"Husband, why is it so lively?"
At that moment, She Shiyun walked out from the backyard.
"Oh, someone wants to buy Uncle Zeng’s house…" Li Xiaojun casually introduced.
However, the moment She Shiyun came out, everyone failed to notice Ye Qinxian’s gaze brighten as she looked at She Shiyun.
She practiced a technique that allowed her to sense other people’s root bones and absorb their essence to strengthen her own root bones.
The moment she saw She Shiyun, she recognized that She Shiyun possessed extraordinary root bones.
At that moment, in Ye Qinxian’s eyes, She Shiyun’s root bones essence already belonged to her.
When the opportunity arose, she would absorb She Shiyun’s root bones essence.
Once she completed the essence absorption, she could give her a sum of wealth.
In Ye Qinxian’s view, even though She Shiyun had cultivation root bones, she would only ever be an ordinary person.
Cultivation was controlled by noble families, and ordinary people should not even think about it.
Thus, instead of letting it go to waste, it would be better for her to absorb She Shiyun’s root bones essence and then give her a fortune.
This was the best way Ye Qinxian believed to exchange benefits.
Others did not notice Ye Qinxian’s gaze, but Li Xiaojun did.
A slight cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
While he did not understand the meaning behind Ye Qinxian’s gaze, he could sense that it was not good.
He wanted to see what this Great Ascension stage woman planned to do.
If she crossed him, she could not blame him for being ruthless.
Soon, Uncle Zeng sold the house to the other party.
This matter was merely a brief episode in Li Xiaojun’s life.
That night, Li Xiaojun was sleeping with She Shihan in his arms.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes.
In the next moment, his figure vanished from the spot.
At that moment, in another courtyard, a woman climbed over the wall and quickly entered.
After the woman arrived, she directly used her divine sense to open a door.
That room was where She Shiyun and her three children were sleeping.
She Shiyun pushed the door open.
Soon, she saw She Shiyun sound asleep in bed, along with the three children beside her.
The moment Ye Qinxian saw the three children, her expression instantly changed to one of extreme shock.
Then came joy, an overwhelming joy.
For she discovered that She Shiyun’s three children possessed root bones that were extraordinarily powerful.
Compared to She Shiyun’s root bones, the children’s were like fireflies to the bright moon.
If she could absorb the essence of these three children, she did not know how much her own root bones would evolve.
Just as Ye Qinxian was filled with ecstatic joy.
Suddenly, a faint voice echoed in the room, "Why aren’t you making your move?"
“ hzz～”
Upon hearing this voice, Ye Qinxian felt her scalp tingle with dread.
She quickly turned around and saw a young, handsome man standing behind her.
To her shock, her divine sense could not scan this man at all.
That situation was quite terrifying.
It indicated that the other party’s cultivation level far surpassed her own, especially in terms of the soul.
"Who are you?"
"You sneak into my wife’s room in the middle of the night and still ask me who I am? Don’t you find that funny?" Li Xiaojun sneered at Ye Qinxian.
In his mind, he thought that this woman, able to reach the Great Ascension stage, must possess excellent spirit roots.
If he captured her to have children, he wondered what kind of spirit roots they might produce.
“Ahem, senior, I didn’t mean to offend. I just feel that your lady’s cultivation talent is remarkable, and I wanted to take her as my disciple,” Ye Qinxian said sincerely to Li Xiaojun.
"You think I would believe that?" Li Xiaojun continued to sneer.
Seeing Li Xiaojun’s reaction, Ye Qinxian knew that today probably would not end well.
If she hadn’t been injured before, she would have escaped at the first opportunity.
But now that she was hurt, it was impossible for her to flee.
So, she turned her gaze to the still-sleeping She Shiyun and the three children on the bed.
She believed her chance of survival lay in kidnapping She Shiyun and the three children, making the other side hesitant to act.
Thinking of this, she quickly reached out her claws toward She Shiyun and the three children.
However, in the next moment, she realized she was completely unable to move.
Moreover, she felt a desperate, overwhelming pressure emanating from Li Xiaojun.
"Want to touch my wife and kids? You’re dreaming!"
Li Xiaojun coldly laughed and waved his hand, causing Ye Qinxian’s neck to automatically move into his grip.
Quickly, Li Xiaojun lifted Ye Qinxian by the neck and left the room.
Moments later, Li Xiaojun brought Ye Qinxian to another room and set up a formation barrier.
