The First Academy in the Cultivation World

"What reward?" Hua Qingfeng asked.

"Medicine, materials, magical tools, anything is fine." Ling Yan'er said, "I have some of them. Oh, and I pulled out a bottle of Foundation Establishment Pills a while ago. There were ten pills in it."

This was the first time she had drawn this familiar pill, and she had thought it didn't exist.

Because whether it was Hua Qingfeng or Ling Ziye who broke through, it seemed that neither of them took any elixirs.

Um... Ling Yan'er didn't know whether they took the elixir when they broke through. After all, she arrived both times when they were about to break through and had gone through the last two thunder tribulations.

"When did you get it?" Dongfang Zichu asked.

"I got it the day before yesterday. I only got two ten-draws, and the only thing I could use was a bottle of Foundation Establishment Pill." Ling Yan'er said, "I haven't gotten anyone in a long time."

At the beginning, three people appeared in ten consecutive draws, and she thought there were a lot of people, but she didn't expect that the probability of drawing a person would decrease as time went by.

Thinking of what happened to those people, Ling Yan'er suspected that the person drawn might appear to be white, but in fact might not be, but that kind of invisible gold or purple.

"People?" Hua Qingfeng was about to ask when he remembered the origins of Lan Lian and the others, so he said, "It's normal that I can't draw them."

Dongfang Zichu asked, "What else did you draw?"

Ling Yan'er shook her head: "No more, these are all the ones I've drawn before."

Ling Yan'er was just about to say that it looked like they wouldn't be setting off any more fireworks, so she went to play somewhere else. As soon as she stood up, she heard the sound of gongs and drums coming closer and closer.

She looked in the direction of the gongs and drums and saw a bright yellow paper dragon coming over, surrounded by a crowd.

Seeing Ling Yan'er leaning over the railing and watching the dancing paper dragon below, Dongfang Zichu asked in confusion, "Haven't you seen the real Long Xuyao ​​so many times? What's the point of looking at a fake one?"

"You don't understand." Ling Yan'er stared down without turning her head: "Long Xuyao ​​is Long Xuyao, and this dragon dance is dragon dance."

"It's quite a lively scene." Hua Qingfeng said.

Ling Yan'er said: "No, it's emotion!"

In modern times, she had only watched it on her mobile phone and TV. It was nothing like seeing it in person.

Moreover, these people's skills were really smart, much better than what she had seen on TV before.

And her position is good, she can see the whole picture.

When Ling Yan'er saw the dragon dancers leave, she suddenly said in frustration, "I forgot to record it!"

"Shall I record one for you?" Dongfang Zichu asked.

Ling Yan'er shook her head and said, "If it wasn't recorded, then it wasn't recorded. We'll watch it again next year!"

It's reasonable to suspect that you deliberately didn't record it just to find an excuse to come and watch it next year.

After the dragon dancers walked away, Hua Qingfeng went to pay the bill. Ling Yan'er put away the plate of melon seeds and took Hua Qingfeng and Dongfang Zichu to another street.

This street is basically filled with all kinds of lanterns, including those for guessing riddles, writing couplets, playing games, and simply selling lanterns.

Ling Yan'er originally wanted to guess the riddle, but then she found that she couldn't guess it. Well, although she knew all the characters, they were actually different.

Hua Qingfeng and Dongfang Zichu are good at practicing, but when it comes to playing these elegant things, they are not as good as Ling Yan'er, who can only watch the fun.

Ling Yan'er secretly resented: "I should have brought Fang Yichen with me when I came out. He would definitely win from the beginning to the end!"

He selectively forgot that Fang Yichen couldn't get out at all.

As for couplets, Ling Yan'er let it go, as the three of them really didn't have the literary talent.

Ling Yan'er bought a lobster lantern and a rabbit lantern. She asked Hua Qingfeng to hold the lobster one while she held the rabbit one.

By the time Ling Yan'er walked out of the street, it was almost midnight.

Ling Yan'er took the two of them to another street that was mostly full of snacks. After having a midnight snack, they found an inn.

Dongfang Zichu and Hua Qingfeng were in the same room. Dongfang Zichu looked at the lantern Hua Qingfeng had placed on the table and asked, "Is this how you humans celebrate the New Year?"

Hua Qingfeng nodded: "About the same. Most people are busy all year long, and they only take a few days off during the New Year."

Dongfang Zichu asked, "Doesn't Ling Yan'er take regular breaks?"

When she doesn't want to do it, she lets her substitute for the class. Even though he is the head of the Finance Department, he still has to substitute for Ling Yan'er.

Hua Qingfeng said: "She is still young, so it is inevitable that she likes these things."

"You're not much older than her, are you?" Dongfang Zichu was speechless at Hua Qingfeng's defense of Ling Yan'er. "You're only a few years older than her."

Hua Qingfeng said, "Aren't you also playing with her? I noticed that you were the one playing with her the most enthusiastically when we were outside."

If Dongfang Zichu wasn't small in stature and didn't want to make things too special in this place where there are so many mortals, the lobster lantern wouldn't be held by him, but by Dongfang Zichu.

Dongfang Zichu stopped talking and changed the subject, "It's so late, I'm going to sleep first."

After saying that, he flew to the bed. Hua Qingfeng did not argue with Dongfang Zichu, but practiced on the couch all night.

When Ling Yan'er woke up the next day, she heard a lot of noise downstairs.

When he came out to the lobby, he found that it was a well-dressed young lady from a wealthy family who had taken a fancy to Dongfang Zichu on Hua Qingfeng's shoulder.

She stopped Hua Qingfeng and said, "Name your price. I have plenty of money!"

Hua Qingfeng said indifferently: "I told you, this is not about money."

After Ling Yan'er came down, she didn't stand over there, but quietly watched the fun from the side.

Dongfang Zichu saw Ling Yan'er's expression as if she didn't recognize them, so how could he let Ling Yan'er stay out of it?

He flew over to Ling Yan'er's shoulder and sat down, saying, "She is my master?"

Hmm? It feels like you're playing a new kind of game?

Ling Yan'er just wanted to watch the show, not become part of it. As soon as she caught Dongfang Zichu's hand, she met the young girl's gaze. She walked over and said, "Since you are his master, how much do you want to sell him to me?"

"Nine hundred billion." Ling Yan'er blurted out.

He completely forgot that he had originally intended to say that he didn't know Dongfang Zichu at all.

The girl was speechless for a moment before she said, "I'm serious!"

"I'm serious too!" Ling Yan'er affirmed, "Look at these little hands and feet. They can even talk and fly on their own. I only charged you 900 billion, so you're making a profit."

"Our young lady is the cousin of the City Lord's Mansion." The maid following the girl said, "Our young lady is kind-hearted and wants to negotiate with you. Please make a good offer and don't be shameless."

"What's wrong with the City Lord's Mansion?" Ling Yan'er said, "The City Lord should have spoken nicely to me, but he's trying to force a sale on a mere cousin."

"Just wait!" the maid shouted, "I'll go find the city guards right away!"

"Even if you call the City Lord himself, it's still unreasonable." Ling Yan'er said, "It's not like I haven't seen the City Lord before. Do you think I'll give you my things just because you bring the City Lord here? There's no such thing as a good thing."

"Just stay here and don't run away." The maid said and ran out.

Seeing the maid leave, the young girl said to Ling Yan'er, "My daughter Zhuzhu has a hot temper, but she's right. I am indeed the cousin of the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord is my aunt. I'm not saying this to threaten you. I really want this little man. Please name a price that is worth giving up."

"That won't work." Ling Yan'er said, "I'm telling you honestly, nine hundred billion is just a joke. Even if you really got it, you wouldn't sell it. He's not my child, he belongs to me."

Ling Yan'er frowned as she spoke, as if it was okay for her to say that Dongfang Zichu was her family's child.

After all, Dongfang Zichu's true form is the tree in the school, but she really bought that tree with spirit stones!

Her tree turned into a monster, so it should be her monster, right?

"He calls you Master." The girl said, "Don't scare me."

Ling Yan'er said, "He did it on purpose. He doesn't usually call me that."

After saying that, he glared at Dongfang Zichu fiercely, but Dongfang Zichu looked innocent: "Master, why do you say that?"

Ling Yan'er was so shocked by the shouting that she wanted to strangle the other person to death. Dongfang Zichu was definitely causing trouble on purpose.

But after a moment, a team of city guards came in following the maid who ran out. Seeing this, Hua Qingfeng stood silently behind Ling Yan'er.

When the leader of the city guards came in, he was still saying, "Who wouldn't give our cousin face?"

When the maid led him to Ling Yan'er and Hua Qingfeng, he saw Hua Qingfeng's cultivation level clearly, his pupils shrank and he said, "Senior, this is all a misunderstanding."

Ling Yan'er didn't say anything. Hua Qingfeng replied, "What misunderstanding?"

The city guard glared at the maid, but the maid said unconvincedly, "It's her good fortune that our young lady has taken a fancy to the little man in his hand. How dare she tease our young lady!"

The girl had sensed something was wrong from the city guard's attitude, and as soon as the maid finished speaking, she quickly said, "Zhuzhu, don't say that. It's fine if she doesn't want to give it up, but I don't really need her."

Zhuzhu seemed to understand something after hearing what the girl said and said, "Since the young lady doesn't want it, forget it. Let's find someone better."

"Excuse me, Senior." Cheng Wei said to the girl, "Our cousin is the only girl in her generation. She is usually spoiled at home. Please don't mind it, Senior."

Ling Yan'er asked, "What if we insist on making a fuss?"

Seeing Cheng Wei's attitude towards Hua Qingfeng, the girl knew that she had offended someone she couldn't afford to offend. She took out a purse from her bosom and said, "I can give you all the banknotes I brought out today as an apology."

It can be seen that although he is spoiled, he is also a resilient person.

Her maid was the bad guy, and she was the good guy. It was obvious that she was the one who took advantage of her power to bully others first, but it was the maid who stood up first and took out all the banknotes. If Ling Yan'er continued to refuse to give in, it would seem that it was Ling Yan'er's fault.

Under normal circumstances, Ling Yan'er should have refused compensation and then let the matter go.

But Ling Yan'er took the purse that she handed to Hua Qingfeng and said, "Since you have apologized so sincerely, it would be bad if I didn't accept it. I will accept this banknote. Next time you like someone else's things, remember to ask where they bought them first. Don't force them to buy or sell. You are lucky to have met the two of us with good tempers. If you are not, you will be beaten up without any reason."

Pulling out five silver notes worth one thousand taels from her purse, Ling Yan'er returned the purse and the change inside to the girl, saying, "You can't just give away a young lady's purse. Keep it safe."

It sounds like it's still very considerate of young girls.

When the girl saw Ling Yan'er accept the things and Hua Qingfeng didn't say anything, not even changing his expression, she knew that Ling Yan'er was the one who made the decision for him. She took the purse that Ling Yan'er returned and left with the maid.

When the city guard saw the girl leave, he looked at Hua Qingfeng's face and saw that he didn't look angry, so he left too.

The girl waiting at the door saw Cheng Wei coming out and quickly went up to him to apologize: "I'm sorry, Zhuzhu acted on her own and caused you trouble."

Cheng Wei's attitude towards the girl was still very good. He reminded her: "He is a powerful being in the Nascent Soul stage. He is not someone you can mess with."

After the reminder, the city guards left and they had to continue patrolling.

Hearing the reminder from the city guard, the girl glanced at Zhuzhu and then looked inside the inn. There was relief in her eyes that she had escaped a disaster. She guessed that the other party was a cultivator. After all, Dongfang Zichu looked like a little demon.

Anyone who can bring it out and parade it around is definitely not an ordinary person.

If Ling Yan'er had been the one leading the group at first, she might not have spoken, but when she saw that it was a man leading the group, she dared to step forward and ask.

Seeing that it was Ling Yan'er who came out, although she knew that there was little hope, she still wanted to ask. Besides, she had a relationship with the City Lord's Mansion, so those who didn't want to offend the City Lord's Mansion would naturally be willing to sell things to her.

But she didn't expect that they were actually at the Nascent Soul stage, the same level as her aunt. No wonder they were not afraid of her aunt.

Although she was unwilling, the girl knew that she could not get what she wanted, so she stomped her feet and left.

After Ling Yan'er and Hua Qingfeng paid the bill and came out, Ling Yan'er grabbed Dongfang Zichu and asked, "Why did you suddenly call me master?"

Dongfang Zichu said, "I'm just cooperating with her. I want her to know that I'm not selling to someone else. What if she thinks I'm not taken and wants to take me away by force?"

"She is just a mortal, how could she take you away by force?" Ling Yan'er didn't believe Dongfang Zichu's explanation at all.

Hua Qingfeng said, "Her maid was able to bring the city guards so quickly. If Dongfang Zichu was alone, it would be hard to say. If the city guards took action, Dongfang Zichu would be no match. The four people in that team are all in the Jindan stage."

Dongfang Zichu said, "If Hua Qingfeng wasn't in the Nascent Soul stage, do you think they would leave so easily?"

In other words, since they couldn't beat Hua Qingfeng, they simply apologized without offending anyone. If Hua Qingfeng was still in the Jindan stage, those people would have a different attitude.

It's obvious at first glance that he is used to bullying others by taking advantage of his power. Such a person naturally knows who he can offend and who he cannot afford to offend.

Ling Yan'er said, "Then I think the banknotes I received are too little."

After saying this, Ling Yan'er gave two banknotes to Hua Qingfeng and one to Dongfang Zichu, saying, "Let's go to the bank and exchange these banknotes."

Hua Qingfeng and Dongfang Zichu had no objection.

It's no wonder that she dared to ask Ling Yan'er to name the price, as she could carry five thousand taels with her. However, the three of them didn't have many opportunities to use mortal silver, but it was not completely useless.
