Chapter 407 Rent Increases Again



After some preparations.

A system notification sounded in Li Daoxuan's ear.

[Wood Spirit Root +24]

[Constitution +24]

[Cultivation Level +24]

...

"Alas!"

Lu Xueqi was startled, and pure magical power appeared out of thin air within her body.

He went directly from a complete novice who had just learned how to draw qi into his body to a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining.

Lu Xueqi looked incredulous, her body feeling warm.

As time went by, she could sense her magical power continuously increasing.

At this rate, and based on previous sexual activity durations, it's possible that it will break records!

"Do you believe me now?"

Li Daoxuan looked at the other party with a smile.

Lu Xueqi nodded vigorously, seemingly understanding why her husband didn't cultivate but instead kept pestering her.

Her eyes shone as she looked at Li Daoxuan beneath her. Before, she would avoid him at all costs, but now she only wanted to focus on cultivating immortality.

She licked her lips and said softly, "My husband, please guide me in the future..."

Li Daoxuan felt a chill run down his spine. "No way," he thought, "this little brat can't possibly be a match for me."

...

...

Time passed by.

Lu Xueqi is obsessed with cultivating immortality.

Fortunately, the other party is just a novice who has just entered the game. How could he possibly be stronger than him?

Three days passed, and all the fasting pills on his body were used up.

"Continue."

He helped Lu Xueqi, who had collapsed, to sit up.

"!"

Lu Xueqi shuddered instantly and begged for mercy repeatedly.

"No, no! Husband, please let me go!"

Feeling the other person's trembling body, he smiled disdainfully. If begging for mercy was useful, why would there be any need for punishment?

Ignore this and continue.

After a long while, Lu Xueqi fainted again.

Li Daoxuan did not continue and withdrew the magic power used to maintain kidney function stimulation.

He glanced at the collapsed Lu Xueqi, but did not choose to use his magic to help her recover. This time, he would teach her a lesson and let her recover on her own.

He carried Lu Xueqi into the bathroom to wash up before lying down in the bedroom and holding her as they fell asleep.

......

The next day.

Lu Xueqi was awakened by a stinging pain all over her body.

Touching the red and swollen areas, she was somewhat incredulous; her husband hadn't helped her this time!

He looked at the sleeping Li Daoxuan with a resentful gaze.

Helpless, he could only lick his wounds alone in the other person's arms.

Now that she's a cultivator, she has the power to do things herself and doesn't need this big bad guy's help!

Waaah—!

It hurts so much. Before, I would feel better as soon as I woke up, but now I can only heal myself while I'm awake, enduring the pain while crying inside.

Li Daoxuan, who had been awake for a long time but was pretending to be asleep, found this scene somewhat amusing.

It does feel pain now; it was so stubborn at first.

"Will you dare to provoke your husband again?"

Lu Xueqi, who was recovering from her injuries, was startled by the voice beside her.

Seeing such a pathetic scene made me feel so ashamed I was about to explode!

To avoid being ridiculed, she casually lowered her hand and feigned confusion, asking, "What are you saying, husband? Xueqi doesn't understand..."

"Oh—! My wife says she wants to continue..."

Li Daoxuan feigned surprise.

"?!"

Seeing Li Daoxuan begin to take action, Lu Xueqi became afraid.

"Husband, I was wrong. She's just a little bit weak. Can't we stop now? Let her rest for a day..."

Lu Xueqi pushed and shoved.

Li Daoxuan pinched her nose hard.

"pain!"

Lu Xueqi's eyes were filled with tears.

"If you know it hurts, you'll learn your lesson."

Li Daoxuan let her go mainly because he had something to do today.

After cuddling together for a while, Li Daoxuan got up, washed up, and went out.

Inner district market.

After saving up spirit stones for so long, it's time to spend them.

Now that I have a side job and a spiritual root, I can't neglect my magic skills.

My own attack methods are somewhat lacking and need to be improved.

They headed straight for the attic where spells were sold.

The sale of magic is a monopoly business of the Green Wolf Gang; all the magic techniques sold here originate from their gang.

This is why spells are sold for much higher prices than cultivation techniques, since the other party has a monopoly and the power to set prices.

They dare to sell low-grade Yellow Rank spells for ten spirit stones.

The number of mid-grade items is even higher, reaching fifty!

Wow, what a huge profit margin! They're not even selling spell jade slips that can be used multiple times, but single-use jade slips with restrictions that prevent them from being taught to others.

However, Li Daoxuan was not worried. With a little more skill after the upgrade, those restrictions would be removed.

Li Daoxuan carefully selected and purchased five low-grade Yellow Rank spells that were suitable for him.

He wouldn't buy a mid-grade item; the price premium is too high. He could add some points himself and it would only cost ten spirit stones.

As for why I didn't buy more, it's because I couldn't afford to maintain them.

I have many things that consume a lot of spirit stones, enough to practice five spells.

These are offensive spells: Lightning Spell, Rock Thrusting Spell, and Wooden Spike Spell.

Defensive spell: Wood Spirit Shield.

Movement technique: Water Leap.

After paying fifty spirit stones, Li Daoxuan returned home.

Time passed quickly.

It's that time of month again to collect rent.

[Emotional Level: Level 5]

[Attribute Points: 0]

[Spirit Stones: Low Grade * 600]

In just one month, Lu Xueqi went from an ordinary person with no cultivation to a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

This is all thanks to Li Daoxuan. Before, he could only earn 20,000 cultivation points a month, which was around the time he reached +8.

He can now spend over 60,000 yuan a month.

It took 20,000 cultivation points per month for Lu Xueqi to level up so quickly; she was practically on a fast track.

I came all the way up from the very beginning, starting from the very first level.

"Stay inside, I'll go out and wait."

Li Daoxuan instructed them to go outside and wait.

He had been feeling increasingly uneasy this month. It seemed that there had been a riot in the outer district, but the inner district had not been affected because of its good security.

However, this is still a bad sign. Considering the continuous rent increases over the past few months, the Green Wolf Gang is definitely up to something.

While waiting, Li Daoxuan observed his neighbors.

Most people don't seem to have had a good month, and some have even gotten injured.

"They're here!"

Someone said something.

Manager Zhao strode over and started collecting from the first household in the first round.

Li Daoxuan paid sixteen spirit stones and received a greasy smile in return.

It made him feel disgusted.

Those who didn't tip were then targeted again.

I remember that guy was gone last month. I don't know what happened, but it certainly wasn't a good thing.

"The rent will increase to twenty spirit stones next month. Also, alchemists need to hand over a certain number of pills to the Green Wolf Gang this month. Of course, we will reduce your rent based on the number of pills handed over. The message has been delivered. Take care."

Manager Zhao said this.

Before leaving, he deliberately revealed the aura of a Foundation Establishment expert to warn those restless individuals.
