Chapter 1700 Heading to Nanhuang

"Purpose?"

Jin Peng immediately showed a sneer on his face when he heard this: "My fellow Taoist, have you gone insane? I am trading with you for business, what do I buy it for? What does it have to do with you!"

Jin Peng didn't know whether he was upright and didn't know how to beat around the bush, or he was arrogant, but he actually insulted Lu Li as soon as he opened his mouth.

Lu Li sighed softly, "Forget it, since you are not interested in trading, let's just forget about it."

As he said, he stood up and walked towards the gate. Lu Li didn't want to make too many comments about Jin Peng, but he would definitely not sell the ghost fruit to the Jin family.

"Wait!"

Seeing that Lu Li actually left as soon as he said he would, Jin Peng also stood up and said in a deep voice: "You asked me to come over, but you refused to take out the ghost fruit. Are you really playing a trick on me!"

"Do you know what happened to me if I offended my Jin family!"

"Psycho!"

Lu Li glanced at Jin Peng lightly, and finally had the urge to beat him up.

"You!!!"

Jin Peng had never been so angry before. He was furious when he heard these three words. He pointed at Lu Li angrily: "Master Xi, kill him for me! I will bear all the costs!"

"Kill me?"

Lu Li's eyes instantly burst out with a piercing cold light, and the rolling momentum rushed towards Jin Peng like a river bursting its banks. Jin Peng didn't even have a chance to react, and flew backwards with a bang, smashing the round table behind him into pieces!

Xi Kang's face changed drastically, and he dodged to block the two of them: "Daoyou, don't be impulsive! This is Bei'an City. If you kill someone here, you will definitely not get away! And..."

Sensing the momentum and pressure from Lu Li, Xi Kang was already extremely shocked at this time. He realized at this time that Lu Li's cultivation was actually much higher than his! He hurriedly warned him to prevent Lu Li from being blinded by anger and directly killing Jin Peng.

However, before he could finish, Lu Li had already turned away, leaving behind only a cold voice: "Don't try to anger me again, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"

Xi Kang went to help Jin Peng, but was pushed away angrily by Jin Peng: "Waste!"

Hearing this, Xi Kang's old face suddenly became extremely ugly. If it weren't for the immortal stone rewards and the opportunity to gain enlightenment from the Jin family's top-grade treasure land, how could he, a dignified earth immortal, be so servile.

Jin Peng stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at the door and gritting his teeth: "Shame on you, wait, I will let you know how powerful my Jin family is!"

On the other side, Lu Li returned to the fourth floor from the fifth floor and knocked on An Ming's door.

After a while, the door opened, and An Ming was slightly surprised and said, "Hey! Senior, you just came back. I couldn't find you for a long time, so I thought you came back a long time ago."

Lu Li smiled slightly, "I went out to walk around somewhere else, and I have something to ask you. Is it convenient?"

"What's convenient or inconvenient, senior, please come in and talk." An Ming smiled and made way for him, and extended his hand to invite Lu Li into the room. His respectful attitude swept away Lu Li's previous annoyance.

An Ming is only a few hundred years older than Jin Peng, but his way of dealing with people, vision and knowledge are far ahead of Jin Peng.

Lu Li has always been a respectful person. An Ming gave him a good face, so he naturally wouldn't embarrass An Ming. Seeing this, he smiled and nodded, and walked in.

"Senior, please have some tea."

After sitting down, An Ming poured Lu Li a cup of tea.

Lu Li nodded, and then said, "I want to ask you, how much do you know about the Jin family?"

"The Jin family?"

An Ming pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "The Jin family is the largest family in our Linyuan City. It occupies more than a dozen mineral veins in the north of Linyuan City, and the income is very considerable."

"The Jin family's collateral lineage, as well as some servants and guards, add up to an estimated 3,000 people, including more than 2,000 below the Spirit Severing Stage, 400 to 500 above the Spirit Severing Stage, and more than ten Mahayana-level strongmen..."

"In addition, there are three earthly immortal-level strongmen in the open, namely the head of the family Jin Geji, the elder Jin Yunzhong, and the hired protector Xi Kang..."

Listening to An Ming's words, Lu Li was secretly a little surprised. He didn't expect that the strength of the Jin family was even stronger than he imagined.

Fortunately, there are not many people in the Jin family who can really pose a threat to him. As long as he is careful, there will be no big problems.

But when he heard the last sentence, Lu Li couldn't help but frown and said, "On the surface? In addition to the three powerful earthly immortals, does the Jin family have other earthly immortals?"

"Senior, you don't know that the main reason why the Jin family can have so many resources is the Qingxuan Sect. Let's put it this way, the current ninth elder of the Qingxuan Sect is the elder brother of Jin Geji, the head of the Jin family..."

In the Nanhuang Immortal Realm, whether a family is strong or not is not just about how many mines and spiritual veins it occupies, but more importantly, whether it has a background in the three major forces.

The Jin family is a family that is not weak in itself and has a backstage in the Qingxuan Sect, the leader of the three major forces. Many disciples of the Jin family have joined the Qingxuan Sect and have a high status.

Therefore, it is not enough to summarize the strength of the Jin family just talking about the Linyuan Jin family.

But fortunately, the cultivation of the ninth elder is only the late stage of earthly immortals. Even if he comes in person, Lu Li is not without the ability to fight.

To be precise, with Lu Li's cultivation at the peak of the Earthly Immortal Realm, he is actually already a person at the top of the First Heavenly Tower. In the Nanhuang Immortal Realm, there are only a few people who can pose a threat to him.

After receiving the news from the Jin family, Lu Li returned to his room and sat cross-legged to practice.

Although the atmosphere of rules in the inn room was not as strong as that in the outside world, it was much stronger than that in the Undead City in the lower world, so Lu Li would not waste his time.

Jin Peng was naturally unwilling to let Lu Li go easily, and secretly bought some spies to keep an eye on Lu Li, but Lu Li had never left the room since he started practicing.

It was not until the end of July that An Ming came to find him, and Lu Li ended his practice. Then he went downstairs to pay the room fee and went to the direction of the City Lord's Mansion in the north.

Bei'an City was under the jurisdiction of Qingxuan Sect, and the City Lord's Mansion naturally belonged to Qingxuan Sect, but the position of the City Lord was not fixed, and was held by the senior members of Qingxuan Sect who were out on missions.

In addition, in order to prevent someone from embezzling the property of Qingxuan Sect, the position of the City Lord would be rotated every once in a while, so there was no hereditary situation in the City Lord's Mansion.

It would not interfere too much with the development of the family chamber of commerce in the city, as long as taxes or offerings were paid regularly.

Today, the City Lord's Mansion Square is quite lively. Dozens of people gathered here early in the morning. These people are all preparing to take the "Void Boat" back to Nanhuang Fairyland.

Outside the City Lord's Mansion, there are special people responsible for registration and issuing passes.

Lu Li and An Ming arrived, each paid 50,000 top-grade spirit stones, and after getting the token pass, they also walked into the City Lord's Mansion Square.

As they walked, An Ming sighed and muttered that the fee was too high. Obviously, 50,000 top-grade spirit stones were still a bit too much for him.

The normal departure time of the Void Boat is at noon.

It is still early now, and everyone is either chatting with each other or meditating in the vacant places on the side. The arrival of Lu Li and An Ming also attracted a lot of people's attention, but most of them were focused on An Ming...
