They had experienced a surge in cultivation after drinking some tea, so how could they let go of this free opportunity?
However, one should still maintain a certain level of composure in front of seniors to leave a good impression.
The four veteran actors, concealing their inner elation, bowed gratefully to Ye Buxiu.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, senior."
"No trouble at all, no trouble at all." He opened the door and went in, carrying a fruit basket.
The four arrived shortly after.
However, as soon as they entered, they felt an immense pressure that instantly overwhelmed their minds.
Their minds went blank, and the four people, as if they had stopped thinking, could only feel endless despair.
"What's wrong?"
The dazed state dissipated instantly as Ye Buxiu spoke.
Only then did they have the opportunity to look around at their surroundings.
The stick, the broom, and even the withered tree beside them all exuded a strange, misty aura.
The courtyard was filled with an atmosphere of chaos, like an abyss.
But those who were actually there were like ants in an abyss, easily drowned by a single spit.
Fortunately, Ye Buxiu's voice drifted over and relieved them of this oppressive feeling of despair.
"What are you all standing there for? Come in."
Ye Buxiu called out and went to find Xiao Huang'er again.
"Little Phoenix, time to eat fruit."
There was no response when I knocked on her door, but the withered tree beside her answered.
"Master, Little Phoenix went out to play with Big Black this morning."
"Going out to play again, don't go causing me trouble like yesterday."
Ye Buxiu was speechless. It wouldn't be good if she went to a place with weak spiritual energy and caused trouble, thus gaining a bad reputation. After all, he was still thinking of making a fortune by collecting rent at home!
Never mind, we'll talk about it later. Let's entertain the guests first.
Ye Buxiu returned to the living room, where the five people at the table were staring at the fruit with shining eyes.
This is no fruit; it's clearly a highly nourishing food, and a divine-level tonic treasure at that!
"Senior, can we start eating now?"
"Of course," Ye Buxiu said with a smile.
"Whatever, there's plenty outside after I finish eating, I'll go pick some more."
At his command, the crowd rushed forward like madmen.
They didn't even need to spit out the peels of grapes, longans, lychees, mangoes, etc., and swallowed them whole.
That's not so bad. Not only were the rinds of the watermelons he picked eaten, but some people even drank the watermelon juice from the table.
However, these things melted instantly in the mouths of the four people, transforming into the purest spiritual energy, which their bodies absorbed frantically.
Ye Buxiu, standing to the side, was sweating profusely.
Have these people never eaten fruit before?
The food in front of them was devoured in an instant.
"Is there anything else, seniors?" the four asked, still wanting more.
The pre-entry reserve had long since vanished.
"You guys really can eat a lot. Yes, of course."
Ye Buxiu went out and picked another basketful, which he then placed in front of the four people.
They saw the fruit being served and immediately reached out to grab it.
Ye Buxiu remained there, completely bewildered.
Is it really that delicious? Why didn't I realize it before?
Guan Sanguan noticed Ye Buxiu's expression and realized that his behavior was really too inappropriate.
He quickly coughed lightly to stop the sect leader from eating so voraciously.
The two people standing nearby also sensed something was wrong, so they coughed twice to cover it up and swallowed the fruit peels in their hands politely.
Guan Sanguan forced his voice into a line and spoke to the other three.
"Everyone, don't you think our senior looks rather unwell?"
"Our excessive greed has displeased our seniors."
“Indeed, the senior seems quite disappointed in us,” the others echoed.
That being said, at the time they had three competitors, and there were only a handful of divine fruits in front of them. Anyone would succumb to such a powerful temptation, and the scramble for them was unstoppable.
They restrained their desires and began to absorb the spiritual energy they had ingested.
They knew very well that if Ye Buxiu hadn't been there, they might have even gone to war over these treasures!
Seeing that the others had stopped moving, Ye Buxiu asked, "Have you all finished eating?"
No one answered him; all four of them were now focused on sensing the improvement in their cultivation levels.
They are experiencing the pleasure of enhanced bathing abilities...
"Ahem," Minato reacted the fastest, trying to cover it up, and said, "Senior, actually we came here this time to rent one of your mountains. We hope you will grant us permission."
Permission granted! Permission must be granted!
Ye Buxiu was overjoyed; another person had come to deliver money!
"What do you think of Guixu Mountain next to Yinmo Mountain?"
Ye Buxiu had actually considered the possibility of establishing a branch sect within the Water Phoenix Sect.
He felt that it would be better to keep the Water Phoenix Sect and the Fire Storm Sect closer together.
In his eyes, both sects were proud existences in the world. With their reputation, he could firstly defend against troublemakers from that world, and secondly, he could boost his popularity.
Isn't this a win-win situation?
"Thank you so much, senior!" Shuimen Shuimiao said excitedly after hearing this.
This senior colleague is actually quite easy to get along with; he agreed to take them in so readily.
"Senior, this is the rent."
Minato took out a bundle of spiritual energy paper rolls worth 10,000 from his storage ring and handed them to Ye Buxiu.

Five hundred tickets... five exchange points!
Are you really that hasty in buying this land? Didn't you even bother to check it out first? What if it's not suitable? What if it's overgrown with weeds and infested with birds and animals?
After all, I haven't seen that mountain in a long time!
"Um...why don't you take a look at the terrain before making a decision?" Ye Buxiu suggested.
Minato showed no appreciation whatsoever for his efforts.
"No need, senior. We trust you, so we'll choose that place. Let's sign the contract and put our fingerprints on it!"
"Wait a minute, are you sure you don't want to take a look? I have a map here! It can holographically interpret the information there!"
Ye Buxiu was getting anxious. This was the first time he had ever seen a buyer urging a seller to sign a contract so he could get the money!
That's way too wild!
Holographic interpretation? What is that?
Could it be that we'll get to see the legendary magical artifacts of our predecessors again?
Shui Miao pondered for a moment, and finally whispered a few words in front of the sect leader's door.
Minato said to Ye Buxiu, "If we could get a sneak peek at the complete interpretation of the sects in the past, that would be an honor."
"Don't worry, leave it to me. Although I haven't been to that mountain for a long time, it's definitely a great place with mild winters and cool summers, and abundant fruit trees."
"Since you all love fruit, you'll definitely be able to eat your fill!"
Ye Buxiu used the Flying Dragon Cloud-Piercing Hand technique to retrieve the chessboard from the next room.
He waved his hand, and suddenly a large red X appeared on the chessboard.

Ten points of exchange value? Why don't you just rob me? You just cheated me out of 25 exchange values yesterday, and now you're doing it again.
