In this way, Lilia and her family lived in Xingyue City, living next door to Li Haiming's house.
It was Li Haiming who helped them find the place where they lived. After all, they had just arrived and were not familiar with the place.
Originally, Li Haiming wanted to invite them to live in his house, but was rejected by Lilia and the others. It was inconvenient to live in someone else's house, and they were embarrassed to trouble the other party.
The rent of the house that Li Haiming found for them was not expensive, only five low-grade spirit stones a month.
Perhaps this is not cheap for others, but for Lilia, a rich little girl, it is not worth mentioning at all. After all, she has a lot of top-grade spirit stones. Even some big families in Canglan Realm are probably not as rich as her.
Yang Anping and his friends felt that five low-grade spirit stones a month were too expensive.
Even though they are in the Lingyuan Realm where spiritual energy is scarce, they are at least Jindan-stage cultivators, so it's not possible that they can't even take out five low-grade spirit stones.
But they are really that poor, even poorer than a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage.
Forget about the five low-grade spirit stones, they didn’t even have a spirit bead on them.
Because their spirit stones were all used up in maintaining the formation and restoring their spiritual power.
The reason why spirit stones can be used as the universal currency in the world of cultivation is mainly because spirit stones contain spiritual energy, which can be absorbed by cultivators, so they can also be used for cultivation and to quickly restore spiritual power.
However, because spirit stones are precious, few people would consume them in this way unless absolutely necessary.
The barrier of the city where they were originally located was broken, and the powerful beings and high-level demons who protected their city perished together, and a large number of demons poured into the city.
They and a group of monks escorted the surviving people to escape. Along the way they had to deal with the pursuing demons. When their spiritual power was almost exhausted, they could only absorb spirit stones to replenish it.
By the time they escaped from the demons and fled into the mountains, they had only a few spirit stones left.
And the few remaining spirit stones were also used up by the formation over the years.
In the first few days after Lilia and her companions arrived in Xingyue City, many cultivators came to inquire about their origins. After all, when they followed Li Haiming into the city, many people in the city saw them, so many people had heard of them.
During these few days, they were not idle and inquired about the situation in Xingyue City.
For example, the population of Xingyue City currently has nearly 100,000 people. The city lord of Xingyue City, who is also the strongest person in Xingyue City, the powerful person in the out-of-body stage, is named Mingyuan.
Of course, they also found out about the cultivators in Xingyue City who were good at formations.
The cultivator who was good at formations was now in the late Jindan stage. His cultivation was higher than Yang Anping's, and he was older than Yang Anping. His attainments in formations might be higher than Yang Anping's. So after hearing about him, Lilia wanted to find him to see if he could help her carve out a teleportation formation to send her back to Canglan Realm.
Although Yang Anping and others didn't know why Lilia was so obsessed with the teleportation array, they naturally had no objection to Lilia's desire to find the cultivator who was good at array formations.
After all, they owe Lilia too much.
If it weren't for Lilia, Yang Anping and Jiang Yi would not have successfully advanced to the Golden Core Stage, and Jiang Er would still be at the second level of Qi Refining.
They will not be able to reach Xingyue City safely.
However, they had no relationship with the formation master and were not sure whether the other party would be willing to help, so they could only look for Li Haiming for help.
Xingyue City is so small, Li Haiming must know the other party, and they might even be friends.
It would be great to have him help with the matchmaking.
Li Haiming would naturally not refuse this request, and he agreed immediately, smiling and saying to them: "You've made the right choice to find me. Chang Yi and I are close friends. Don't worry, he will definitely help you for my sake."
The Chang Yi mentioned by Li Haiming is the cultivator who is good at formations.
He had promised Lilia and the others to take them to see Chang Yi, so he would naturally not go back on his word. At this moment, they were already standing in front of Chang Yi's residence.
"Brother Li, why are you here?" Chang Yi saw Li Haiming coming and immediately came out to greet him.
Chang Yi looks like an old man with white hair, but he looks energetic, with a straight back, and does not have the old looks of an ordinary old man.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that he looks older than Li Haiming, he is actually more than 20 years younger than Li Haiming.
As for why he looks older than Li Haiming, it is simply because his cultivation is lower than Li Haiming's, so his life span is not as long as Li Haiming's. Now, because he has not much life left, he looks old.
Seeing Lilia and Yang Anping standing behind Li Haiming, Chang Yi couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Who are these people——"
In fact, he had already guessed about the identities of Lilia and the others. After all, he had heard the rumors in the city in recent days. So when he saw Li Haiming coming with a few strangers, he naturally guessed that Lilia and the others might be the people that Li Haiming had brought back from outside as everyone was talking about recently.
"Brother Chang, let's go inside and talk." Li Haiming did not introduce Lilia and the others to him immediately, but motioned for him to go inside and talk.
Chang Yi nodded when he heard this and led them into the house.
After they sat down, Li Haiming introduced Lilia and the others to Chang Yi.
Following Li Haiming to Chang Yi were Lilia and Yang Anping. After all, they were afraid of disturbing Chang Yi if there were too many people, not to mention that the two Jiang brothers knew nothing about formations.
Although Lilia didn't understand the formation, this matter was related to her, so she naturally had to come.
