The boys were full of energy and enthusiasm, and they imagined themselves flying through the sky and traversing the earth, their sword energy stretching for thousands of miles.
They were chatting a bit too much and going on and on, so Lin Qianqian had to interrupt.
"Everyone, let me make this clear from the start: cultivating immortality requires spiritual roots; without spiritual roots, one cannot cultivate immortality."
Cultivation techniques are good, but not everyone can cultivate immortality. She needed to make this clear first, lest people accuse her online store of defrauding customers.
Lu Nanzhe tilted his handsome face upwards at a 45-degree angle, saying with a hint of pride, "Cultivating immortality and becoming a god—such a powerful technique, of course, not everyone is qualified to cultivate it. Those with spiritual roots are one in ten thousand people with great fortune, like me!"
"Lu Nanzhe, speak properly, and we can still be friends."
"Lu Nanzhe, what are you so arrogant about? I am the one with great fortune."
In an instant, Lu Nanzhe aroused a lot of hatred, and his cronies all started attacking him.
At this moment, a somewhat shy boy moved closer to Lin Qianqian.
"Beautiful lady, my name is Xiang Chengguang, and Lu Nanzhe and I are childhood friends. May I ask what a spiritual root is, and how one can obtain one?"
“Spiritual roots are something that people are born with, and they are the foundation for cultivating immortality. Lu Nanzhe was right; people who possess spiritual roots are one in ten thousand.”
"How can I tell if I have spiritual roots?"
Lin Qianqian took out a spirit-testing disc. "Just use this to test it."
Xiang Chengguang looked into her hand and saw a round plate the size of a vegetable dish, surrounded by a ring of gemstones of different colors, with a colorless jade stone about half the size of his palm in the center.
Before he could say anything more, Lin Qianqian spoke first: "Spiritual roots are rare, and cultivation techniques are also very expensive. You should look at all the items in our shop first, and then come to test your spiritual roots if you still want to buy cultivation techniques."
After saying that, Lin Qianqian walked away and went downstairs. As soon as she sat down on the first floor, Yunze handed her a glass of freshly squeezed spiritual juice, which was her favorite flavor.
Lin Qianqian sat down in a good mood to drink her juice, leaving the rest to Wen Mingyue and Luo Zexuan.
Her two henchmen will definitely make these young people spend money until they're bankrupt.
As expected, she was not disappointed. An hour later, a young man rushed out with his phone in hand.
Next came the second and third... Finally, Luo Zexuan and Wen Mingyue went downstairs.
They poured themselves some water to soothe their throats.
Seeing that Lin Qianqian was puzzled by the young people's behavior of running away like dogs, she took the initiative to explain.
“They had all looked at the goods and wanted to buy a lot of them. But we don’t accept the local currency; we only exchange them for Qionglin delicacies. They can only go home first and prepare what they can exchange.”
"Then what did they use to pay for the phones they took?"
She must be seeing things correctly; it seemed like each of them took a cell phone.
"They didn't even pay for the phone, but Lu Nanzhe vouched for them and let them take it first. The phone contained various video introductions, which they wanted to show to their elders at home, hoping to get material support from them."
Lin Qianqian had no objection to the credit purchase. If she was really tricked out of her money, she would just have Lu Nanzhe pay for it.
However, she believed that these young people would definitely visit again tomorrow with their elders.
After everyone left, Lu Nanzhe ran over, stammering as if he had something to say.
"Just say what you want to say," Lin Qianqian rolled her eyes at him, too lazy to play guessing games with him.
Lu Nanzhe rubbed his hands together and said, "That puppet, are you selling it for one sword and two swords?"
Lin Qianqian looked at Lu Nanzhe with amusement. This guy really has good taste; he only picks out good things.
He lent him swords one and two for a few days, and then he started to covet them.
"They have already recognized me as their master, I will not sell them!"
"Are there any other puppets? I'd like to buy two, or even one!"
Lin Qianqian put down her juice and said, "Haven't you already taken back the Lu family? What do you need a puppet for?"
"Boss Lin, oh no! Sister, I'm calling you sister, please help me!"
Lu Nanzhe, who had just been a little shy and embarrassed, immediately changed his attitude.
"Who's your sister? Call me Boss Lin."
"Why can't I call you 'sister'? I heard Xiang Chengguang call you 'sister'. Why can he call you that, but I can't?"
Lu Nanzhe felt a little wronged, since they were the ones who met first!
"In short, I'm not your sister, so don't call everyone 'sister'."
“I will call you sister. If you agree, you will be my real sister, and I can add your name to the Lu family genealogy.”
"Thank you, but no need. Please don't put me in the family genealogy without my permission."
"Don't refuse so quickly. Being listed in the family tree means you can inherit half of the Lu family's assets. Sister, why don't you think about it!"
"Don't even try, I don't care about that little bit of family fortune."
Lin Qianqian put down her cup and wanted to leave, not wanting to say anything more to him.
He really has an eye for talent; he's really good at faking accidents!
"Don't go, sis!"
Lu Nanzhe quickly grabbed her sleeve, wiped his face, and immediately started wailing with snot and tears streaming down his face.
"Sister, I'm suffering! I did manage to take back the Lu family, but besides the main branch, there are many other branches, and even more people who are greedy and covetous. There are very few people I can truly trust. Uncle Chen can't protect me 24/7. In the three days I've been at the Lu family, I haven't been able to sleep soundly. I don't dare to sleep at all unless Jian Yi and Jian Er are standing by my bedside."
Lin Qianqian slapped away his hand that was grabbing her sleeve in disgust: "Say it again, call me Boss Lin."
"Okay, sis."
Lu Nanzhe has decided that it's your business if you dislike him, and it's my business how I address you; he's shameless.
He had to cling tightly to Lin Qianqian, his powerful patron; what could be more important than staying alive?
Lin Qianqian was speechless, but then she sighed sympathetically. Indeed, large families have many members and complex human relationships.
If they were of one mind, his mother wouldn't have died so quickly. And his father, an outsider, couldn't have taken control of the Lu family so easily.
Lin Qianqian thought for a moment and said to him, "My Sword One and Sword Two are puppets at the Mahayana stage. I don't have many of these myself. If you want to buy them, I also have puppets at the Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation stages. Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation, um... that's equivalent to your tenth rank..."
"I want it, I want it!" Before Lin Qianqian could finish introducing it, Lu Nanzhe shouted that he wanted it.
He feels really insecure right now; apart from Uncle Chen, he doesn't dare to trust anyone in the Lu family.
I need one of my swords, Sword One or Sword Two, with me for everything, which is why I came to the shop so quickly.
He trusted Lin Qianqian and her group of friends, whom he had only recently met, more than the members of the Lu family!
Lin Qianqian didn't ask Lu Nanzhe what he would exchange for it, because she knew Lu Nanzhe could afford the price.
Lin Qianqian took out a puppet, stuffed a high-grade spirit stone into its chest, and taught Lu Nanzhe how to recognize it as his master.
Lu Nanzhe's newly cultivated divine sense was almost drained by the puppet.
Fortunately, although he had just started cultivating, he had eaten Qionglin delicacies since childhood, so his spiritual power was abundant and solid. With Lin Qianqian's help, he finally succeeded in recognizing the master.
Although I've suffered a bit and am still a little dizzy, I'm very happy and laughing like an idiot.
After recognizing the master, he could truly feel how strong his puppet was, a feeling that Sword One and Sword Two could not give him, since Sword One and Sword Two's master was not him.
Now things are much better; he has his own bodyguard, and his safety is finally guaranteed.
He immediately named his puppet bodyguard Lu Zhong.
Anyone could betray him, but Lu Zhong would never, ever.
