Chapter 531: The Spirituality of the Territory

~31 min read 6,012 words

On the New Land, five thousand Three-Headed people were preparing to reclaim the land.

A Three-Headed person was carrying an offering table, learning from an experienced land reclaimer how to place offerings.

A Three-Headed person was holding paper and pen, learning from a land reclaimer how to write a contract.

A Three-Headed person was chatting with Pan Pan Dehai: "This uncle, are you also here to reclaim land?"

Pan Pan Dehai smiled and shook his head: "I'm just here to look around."

After looking around for a while, Pan Pan Dehai left.

Together with him were Hundred-Eyed Fish and Gao Gao Shuxia. Ever since they failed to compete for the territory of Back-Peerless, these two had been following Pan Pan Dehai.

After walking out of this hundred-mile territory, Hundred-Eyed Fish looked at Pan Lao with great contempt: "Master Pan, we traveled such a long way just to take a stroll?"

Pan Pan Dehai smiled: "Staying at Sea-Eat Ridge all the time, the two young ladies won't grow any skills, only flesh. Coming out for a stroll isn't a bad thing."

Hundred-Eyed Fish snorted: "Oh my, Master Pan, are you mocking us? Complaining that we haven't served you well enough?"

Pan Pan Dehai waved his hands repeatedly: "I am a person of virtue. The two young ladies should watch their words. We are just doing business together; I have never had any improper thoughts about the two young ladies."

This was the truth. In the time they had been together, these two women had done quite a few things for Pan Pan Dehai, and Pan Pan Dehai had also given them quite a few benefits, but there had never been any crossing of the line between them.

Business is business, and affection is affection. Pan Pan Dehai distinguished these two points very clearly.

Pan Lao really wanted to return to Sea-Eat Ridge, but Gao Gao Shuxia wasn't happy: "Master Pan, are we really going back like this? That's not what we said when we came!"

Pan Pan Dehai sighed: "Five thousand three-headed monsters, all walked out of the Sinner City. If they really turned their faces and fought us to the death, what can the two young ladies use to resist?"

Gao Gao Shuxia turned her head and looked at the territory—the New Land that wasn't bound by the Inner Continent—which really made it hard to look away.

Pan Pan Dehai didn't stop at all: "Two young ladies, you'd better walk faster. If you run into Green Flower Child in a while, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave even if you want to."

Ma Wu used Green Flower Child's banner to openly and aboveboard bring these five thousand people to the New Land. Whether relying on Green Flower Child's reputation or the strength of the five thousand Three-Headed people, 90% of people wouldn't dare to have designs on this piece of New Land.

But the food and drink for five thousand people became a problem. There were ways to think about food—pulling over a few carts of compressed biscuits was enough to eat for two days.

Water was not easy to handle. Transporting a load of water from Blue Yang Village, most of it would be drunk on the way.

To solve the drinking water problem, they had to reclaim the land.

Li Li Banfeng wasn't greedy. He pulled out five hundred able-bodied men to first reclaim twenty pieces of territory, each one mile long.

This piece of New Land was missing something. Ever since Li Li Banfeng got the land, he hadn't discovered a single strange monster here.

Actually, this was normal. The Inner Continent promised to send land, but didn't promise to send strange monsters. These strange monsters perhaps had to be cultivated by He He Yuxiu herself.

But now they were about to reclaim the land, and without strange monsters, what could they use for the examination?

He He Yuxiu thought simply: "Since there are no strange monsters to come here for the examination, do we have to find them ourselves?"

Li Li Banfeng had also considered this matter.

He also had a piece of New Land and had to worry about the examination every day. Last time Chu Er reclaimed the land, Li Li Banfeng had problems with the examination, unreasonably increasing the difficulty of the examination.

The purpose of the examination was to test whether the land reclaimer had the ability to manage the land. These Three-Headed people clearly possessed such ability, making the examination link seem very unnecessary.

So, could they skip the examination?

As far as Li Li Banfeng knew, no one had ever done this before.

Meng Meng Yuchun waited every day for someone to reclaim the land. It was hard to encounter Li Qi, so the links of setting up offerings and establishing contracts were simplified, but the link of examination was never omitted.

Qiu Qiu Luoye was anxious to reclaim the land, and in the later stages, all the examination links became formalities.

But even for this formality, Qiu Qiu Luoye never dared to neglect it, even for the last piece of territory, he had to call two strange monsters over to fight a battle.

The examination link definitely had special significance. Li Li Banfeng pondered whether to move some strange monsters from his own New Land over.

The key was how many to move? In the future, Li Li Banfeng planned to reclaim all the land, so three or five strange monsters definitely wouldn't be enough.

Should he borrow some from the surrounding New Lands?

The key was that he wasn't too familiar with the surrounding Local Deities. Borrowing strange monsters—I'm afraid people might not agree—

He He Yuxiu's He He Yuxiu had five thousand Three-Headed people, and soon they would become formal land. Moving these strange monsters over by then—how many strange monsters could endure this tossing?

Should he borrow some from the surrounding New Lands?

The key was that he wasn't too familiar with the surrounding Local Deities. Borrowing strange monsters—I'm afraid people might not agree—

Li Li Banfeng was worried about this matter. He He Yuxiu, on the other hand, had let go: "Seventh Brother, we don't have to make things difficult for ourselves. There are no strange monsters to come here for the examination, so do we have to find them ourselves?"

"We must follow the rules of reclaiming land. Once they set up the offerings, I will go to respond first. If the land has a reaction, let them prepare for the examination."

"We will release the news. As long as there are strange monsters willing to come, I definitely won't stop them. If no strange monsters are willing to come, then that's the land reclaimer's luck, and we can't make things difficult for them."

She didn't have any problems with these words. Li Li Banfeng was also an impatient person and agreed on the spot: "Try one piece of land first. If there's no situation, continue reclaiming. If there's a situation, we'll think of another way."

The first batch of Three-Headed people set up the offerings, and He He Yuxiu was also ready to respond.

When Li Li Banfeng first responded to land reclamation, he relied on the Judge's Pen to fly and had to rely on the projector to create an atmosphere.

He He Yuxiu was simple; she found a mask to cover her face and walked straight to the land, shouting at the land reclaimer: "Are you the one reclaiming the land?"

Twenty-five Three-Headed people looked at He He Yuxiu, not daring to breathe, only nodding repeatedly.

"Approved!" He He Yuxiu stepped forward and took the bottle of good wine on the table. She sprinkled half on the ground and drank the remaining half clean.

Li Li Banfeng sneered. With her being so sloppy, how could she possibly light up the land boundary?

Just as the laughter fell, an exclamation came from the crowd. The land boundary really lit up.

These Three-Headed people hadn't experienced land reclamation and were all very surprised to see the boundary line of the land.

Li Li Banfeng was even more surprised than them.

He He Yuxiu just responded like this, and the land boundary lit up?

I tried so many times when I first started; how does this count?

Li Li Banfeng thought for a long time and found a reason for himself.

He He Yuxiu's cultivation was high; she had already reached the Clouds. Li Li Banfeng was still at the Earth Skin level at the time, mainly due to the gap in cultivation.

The Local Deity approved the land reclamation, and the rest was the preparation before land reclamation.

By the next day, the examination officially began. Twenty-five Three-Headed people were ready for battle. This was their first time reclaiming land,

and none of them dared to be careless.

He He Yuxiu was certain no strange monsters would appear and watched coldly from the side.

Li Li Banfeng suddenly felt danger approaching. He looked into the distance for a moment, only to see a huge figure getting closer and closer in the night.

What is this?

This figure looks so familiar!

"Old Five, did you call the Swallow over?"

Ma Wu took a look and shook his head: "This is not the Swallow. This is not our family's Bagworm Moth!"

"Then whose is this?" Li Li Banfeng walked up to it, only to see a huge Bagworm Moth Lady, chewing on leaves while crawling toward the land boundary.

"Miss, what are you doing here?" Li Li Banfeng stepped forward and greeted her.

The Bagworm Moth Lady's cheeks turned red: "Little Brother, you really know how to talk. This lady is here for the examination."

Li Li Banfeng pointed at the Three-Headed people on the land: "You are here to examine them?"

"Yes, isn't this where land is being reclaimed?"

Li Li Banfeng thought for a moment and asked: "You are a wandering monster, right? Wandering monsters shouldn't participate in the examination."

The Bagworm Moth nodded: "By right, I shouldn't come, but I have an invitation!"

"Who issued the invitation?"

"Chu Yaoqian, Lady Chu gave it!"

Li Li Banfeng didn't understand: "Chu Yaoqian is the Local Deity of the New Land, right?"

"Yes!"

"She doesn't guard her own territory well, why run over here to cause trouble?"

The Bagworm Moth thought for a moment and shook her head: "Little Brother, you shouldn't ask me about this. I only care about coming here for the examination. Once the examination is successful, I'll go find Lady Chu to collect the cultivation. I don't know anything else."

Her answer really had no problems. It was very common for Local Deities to hire wandering monsters to do things in the New Land. When the Mountain-Pulling Master was around, he had hired wandering monsters to attack Meng Meng Yuchun's territory.

She didn't say anything more and continued to crawl toward the land boundary. Li Li Banfeng asked: "Miss, you have eighth-level cultivation, right?"

According to the common sense of the New Land, the Bagworm Moth Lady's cultivation was proportional to her body size. This lady's figure was much larger than the Swallow's, and Li Li Banfeng suspected she had reached the limit of a Bagworm Moth Lady.

That lady turned her head and said: "Little Brother, you have a good eye. After earning this cultivation, I will reach the ninth level. After the ninth level, I won't be a Bagworm Moth anymore; I will grow into a proper beautiful lady."

So a Bagworm Moth Lady would change after reaching the ninth level.

But this wasn't the point. The point was that an eighth-level strange monster examining a one-mile piece of land—wasn't this nonsense?

Li Li Banfeng chased after the Bagworm Moth from behind and shouted: "Miss, don't go to the land boundary first. How much cultivation did Lady Chu promise you? I'll compensate you for that amount."

"Little Brother, next time. I've already promised Lady Chu. I am a person who keeps my word."

Li Li Banfeng frowned. The first land reclamation

Just as he was about to make a move, He He Yuxiu blocked him: "Lao Qi, don't worry about this matter, I'll handle her."

The Bagworm looked at He He Yuxiu: "And who are you?"

He He Yuxiu said: "I am the local deity here. I won't let you come here for the examination."

Madam Bagworm frowned: "Oh my, you arrange the examination but won't let me come? This isn't according to the rules, is it?"

He He Yuxiu sneered: "You, an eighth-level Bagworm, examining a one-li plot of land—is this according to the rules?"

"If you had locals coming to examine, I indeed shouldn't interfere. But there are no locals here now, so you shouldn't be blocking me."

This Madam Bagworm was actually quite reasonable. She explained the situation very clearly: "You have strange creatures here, so I won't cause trouble. You don't have strange creatures here, so I, as a wandering creature, coming to examine, really doesn't violate any rules."

But He He Yuxiu didn't intend to be reasonable today: "I just want to block you, I just won't let you examine."

Madam Bagworm really wasn't afraid: "If you're willing to risk your reputation as a local deity, let's fight right here!"

The two were about to start fighting when Ma Wu stepped forward and blocked He He Yuxiu: "Sister Xiu, it's not worth it. This young lady,

how should I address you?"

As their gazes met, the young lady dodged slightly. She lowered her head and said: "My name is A-Rou."

"A-Rou, let's step aside and talk." Ma Wu kept his eyes on A-Rou.

"Then make it brief." A-Rou lowered her head, feeling a bit uncomfortable being watched, but she still followed Ma Wu.

Ma Wu went to deal with A-Rou, and before long, another old man came to the plot.

Upon seeing He He Yuxiu, the old man first bowed: "Are you the local deity here?"

He He Yuxiu nodded.

"Please sit here, I have something to discuss with you." The old man wiped a stone stool with his sleeve,

and invited He He Yuxiu to sit down.

This one was also a reasonable person. Just as He He Yuxiu was about to sit, Li Li Banfeng supported the peach with one hand, not letting her touch that stone stool.

He He Yuxiu blushed: "Seventh Brother, with so many people here, what are you doing?"

Li Li Banfeng said to the old man: "You are Fengqu Weng, right?"

The old man nodded: "You have a sharp eye."

"You also came here to examine?"

"I have an invitation, an invitation given by Lord Rong Rong Sijiao!"

Rong Rong Sijiao, this was also a local deity in New Land.

Fengqu Weng's cultivation was generally around the seventh level. Li Li Banfeng had once dealt with a Fengqu Weng; this type of wandering creature was very difficult to deal with.

Just like He He Yuxiu, if she had sat on that stone stool just now, it would have been equivalent to accepting Fengqu Weng's service. Once she had collected three services, she would have to wait for Fengqu Weng to collect the debt.

Li Li Banfeng certainly couldn't let Fengqu Weng enter the plot. If he really let him in, those simple Three-Head people would be played to death by him.

"Old man, don't be in such a hurry to examine, let me discuss something with you—"

Before Li Li Banfeng could persuade Fengqu Weng, a cook came from behind.

Li Li Banfeng recognized this cook; he was one of Meng Meng Yuchun's subordinates.

"Brother, you've come too?" Li Li Banfeng didn't know what to say.

Upon seeing Li Li Banfeng, the cook hurriedly bowed: "Seventh Master, is this your territory? Then I won't come."

"Don't be in a hurry," Li Li Banfeng asked, "Did you also receive an invitation to examine?"

The cook nodded: "I have a friendship with the local deity Sha Sha Dingzhong. He invited me, and I discussed it with Miss Meng, and she also approved."

"Sha Sha Dingzhong is acting on orders from the Inner Province, deliberately coming to stir up trouble, right?" Li Li Banfeng remembered He He Haiqin saying this matter; a group of local deities were rushing over to seize territory, and Sha Sha Dingzhong, Chu Yaoqian, and Rong Rong Sijiao were among them.

"I really don't know about this matter," the cook didn't dare to speak recklessly, and bowed again: "Seventh Master, you go ahead and get busy, I won't disturb you."

"Brother, don't go yet. There are some things I don't quite understand and need to ask you for advice," Li Li Banfeng kept the cook there. "If a plot of land never has suitable people coming to examine, then just don't arrange an examination. The local deity directly acknowledges the account, counting this person's wasteland reclamation as successful—can that work?"

Li Li Banfeng really asked the right person. The cook was knowledgeable and had been struggling in New Land for many years, so he really knew a lot: "Seventh Master, wasteland reclamation must have an examination. Skipping the examination, this matter certainly won't succeed."

"If the local deity acknowledges it, won't the wasteland reclamation be successful?"

The cook shook his head repeatedly: "People have many misunderstandings about wasteland reclamation, thinking that if the local deity nods, the reclamation is successful.

But if the local deity nods, if the territory doesn't acknowledge the account, this plot of land won't successfully reclaim the wasteland, and the lit boundary line won't go out.

The reclaimer inside the boundary line cannot walk out; walking out counts as a failure of reclamation. The reclaimer outside cannot walk in; even if they enter, their participation in the reclamation won't count."

"The territory must have a response." Li Li Banfeng was carefully analyzing the concepts within.

"Seventh Master, I only have a half-understanding of this matter, I'll tell you as much as I know," the cook tried his best to explain. "The local deity is the master of a place. To be a local deity, you must first be familiar with the territory."

Li Li Banfeng knew this.

To ascend above the clouds and become a local deity, one must be extremely familiar with the territory and stabilize one's own status through the territory.

The cook continued: "The process of becoming familiar with the territory is connecting with the territory and sensing each other. Only when the territory has a response is this master of the place acknowledged."

Hearing the cook say this, Li Li Banfeng had some concepts.

The cook continued: "Wasteland reclamation is the same. It's selecting a small plot of land in the territory and establishing a small landlord.

This small landlord needs to obtain the recognition of the local deity and also obtain the recognition of the territory. The examination is the process by which the reclaimer obtains the recognition of the local deity and the territory.

Seventh Master, think about it. If you were the territory and I were the local deity, I invited a friend to carve out a piece of land and said it was his. I nodded and acknowledged it, regardless of whether you agreed or not—could you be happy in your heart?

If you aren't happy, the wasteland reclamation certainly won't succeed. Between the territory and the local deity, a rift might also appear. To put it bluntly, the territory is angry.

When there are many such things, the rift between the territory and the local deity becomes deeper and deeper. After a long time, the territory won't acknowledge this local deity anymore.

I have encountered such a thing. There was a local deity whose territory was very close to Black Stone Slope. Every year, many people reclaimed wasteland. He was a very easygoing person, approachable, and many wealthy families in Puluo Province were willing to send people to reclaim wasteland there.

This person was also eager for success and wanted to turn his territory into a proper one. The examination was done very perfunctorily; some plots didn't even have an examination and were directly given away.

At that time, more than three thousand square li of wasteland were reclaimed in his territory, and many people felt his territory could really become a proper one. Who would have thought that suddenly one day, his contract crawled out of the soil by itself?

This local deity didn't know about it at the time. Later, he discovered his body was unwell, but unfortunately, it was too late. The contract was unearthed, his cultivation level dropped, and because he didn't deal with it in time, his soul was damaged, and he became a wounded demon. A territory with great hope,

just like that, was gone.

This is an example of the territory taking revenge on the local deity. So, Seventh Master, you must deal with the examination very seriously."

Li Li Banfeng said: "If you encounter a territory without strange creatures, there is really no way to examine. Then can this wasteland never be reclaimed?"

The cook shook his head: "Seventh Master, I've explained so much to you, but actually, I mainly want to say one thing: the territory has spirituality. You must treat the territory as a living person.

I haven't seen a territory without strange creatures, but I have seen plots without strange creature examinations.

Some reclaimers chose plots in remote places where there weren't many strange creatures to begin with, and coupled with the fact that the reclaimers' strength wasn't low, most strange creatures weren't willing to risk their lives for cultivation. Even if the local deity forced them, they weren't willing to come.

After three days passed and the examination ended, no strange creatures came to fight, but this also counted as successful wasteland reclamation, because the territory knew the reason here.

Seventh Master, I really didn't see strange creatures in your plot, but this doesn't mean no one came to examine. Wandering creatures came, and they weren't here to stir up trouble; they were also here for the examination. If you don't let the wandering creatures make a move, this is deliberately cheating, and the territory certainly won't agree."

Li Li Banfeng listened intently. The concepts introduced by the cook gave Li Li Banfeng a new understanding of territory, local deities, and reclaimers.

Thinking about it, he really felt it was strange. Li Li Banfeng discovered that these concepts made him feel very familiar. Where exactly the familiarity lay, Li Li Banfeng couldn't figure out for a moment.

The territory acknowledges the local deity, and the local deity and the territory together protect the reclaimer. This seems to be like the mansion, the mansion spirit, and the mansion cultivator... —

Li Li Banfeng was still thinking when Fengqu Weng, taking advantage of Li Li Banfeng's inattention, had already entered the territory.

"Friends, you've worked hard. Sit." Fengqu Weng used his sleeve to sweep the bluestone slab on the ground.

Just as several Three-Head people were about to sit, Li Li Banfeng shouted: "You can't sit! This is to examine you!"

The twenty-five Three-Head people suddenly realized. Fengqu Weng rolled his eyes at Li Li Banfeng and began to fight with the Three-Head people.

The Three-Head people had the advantage in physique, but their combat experience was really limited, and their tactics were very singular—relying on their bodies to fight hard. In less than ten minutes of fighting, six Three-Head people unintentionally received three services from Fengqu Weng and lost their combat ability, only able to watch quietly from the side.

He He Yuxiu was anxious in her heart. If they kept fighting like this, the Three-Head people had almost no possibility of winning.

Li Li Banfeng wasn't anxious; being anxious was useless. He couldn't interfere in this matter.

He took two Golden Origin Pills from his bosom and handed them to the cook.

The cook was greatly shocked; this gift was too valuable.

"Seventh Master, I can't accept this—"

"Accept it, brother." Li Li Banfeng looked at the battle situation of the reclaimers and then looked at the five thousand Three-Head people waiting for water to drink. This was clearly another ruthless move by the Inner Province.

The New Land the Inner Province gave Li Li Banfeng had no strange creatures, which increased the reasonableness of wandering creatures coming over to examine.

The combat power of wandering creatures was extremely high, which brought great difficulty to the wasteland reclamation of New Land.

If Li Li Banfeng wanted to borrow some wandering creatures from the surrounding territory, surely no one would dare to lend them to him. Whose strange creatures came, that local deity would be equivalent to offending the Inner Province.

If Li Li Banfeng wanted to move wandering creatures from his own territory, it would mean exposing his New Land. By then, the Inner Province would certainly strictly investigate Li Li Furong, and the New Land contract might even bring backlash to Li Li Banfeng.

This situation was not easy to break.

While he was thinking deeply, the battle already had a result. In about half an hour, all twenty-five Three-Head people were defeated by Fengqu Weng.

This Fengqu Weng had a sense of proportion. He used Feng cultivation techniques to control these twenty-five people and let them leave the territory on their own. He didn't kill anyone. Several people resisted desperately and were injured by Fengqu Weng, but they weren't injured too heavily.

This Fengqu Weng knew how to do things well. He didn't provoke Li Li Banfeng and He He Yuxiu, and he also earned his cultivation level.

A hawk flew over in the sky. Fengqu Weng looked up and saw the hawk circling the plot three times. Fengqu Weng then walked out of the plot.

He had successfully defeated the reclaimers this time and had already been recorded by that hawk. The hawk would tell Rong Rong Sijiao,

and fulfill the reward for Fengqu Weng.

Fengqu Weng could choose to continue staying here to examine, or he could choose to quit while he was ahead and leave immediately.

But this old man was very smart. He didn't make the choice himself; he handed the choice to the local deity: "Madam, I only have this much ability, and I still want to earn a living here. Do you reward me or not?"

He He Yuxiu wished she could beat him up. How could she let him continue to stay here to examine?

It was Li Li Banfeng who wanted to keep Fengqu Weng, because if Fengqu Weng left, other strange creatures would come to examine, and they might not be able to be like Fengqu Weng, only fighting for victory or defeat without harming lives.

The cook saw Li Li Banfeng's thoughts. Having accepted the two Golden Origin Pills, the cook felt uneasy in his heart and wanted to help Li Li Banfeng do something: "Seventh Master, this group of reclaimers has some means, but they don't know much about tactics. If they are given some guidance, they will have the power to fight against wandering creatures."

Li Li Banfeng was happy: "Brother Cook, you must help me with this matter."

The cook nodded and said: "Since Seventh Master thinks highly of me, first listen to my method. First, we cannot open a one-li plot anymore; at least start from three li.

Wandering creatures all have cultivation levels above the fifth level. Fighting with wandering creatures for a one-li plot is really not worth it. The first thing we need to do is to raise the reclaimed territory to three to five li, and only let one or two wandering creatures into the territory to fight each time. By doing this, the reclaimers can carry it through, and the territory can also look past it."

A one-li plot is one square li, a three-li plot is nine square li, and a five-li plot is twenty-five square li.

The cook hit the point. Fighting with wandering creatures cannot just be exchanged for one square li; one must ensure that this battle is worth it!

The cook continued: "The second thing we need to do is to let these reclaimers know how to fight. They like to fight straight and direct, only knowing how to charge forward.

This move is really useful against Bagworms, and with their strength, they can fight a Bagworm. But it's not very suitable against Fengqu Weng. Later, you gather another group of reclaimers, set up the offerings again, and tomorrow I will be examined with them, and by the way, I will teach them some tactics."

The cook was really decent. Li Li Banfeng thanked him repeatedly and hurriedly gathered the reclaimers.

To open three li of land, Li Li Banfeng gathered one hundred Three-Head people. The cook shook his head: "Seventh Master, this matter isn't the more people the better. If one coward leaves the boundary line, we will lose everything.

I will choose thirty from these one hundred people; that will be enough."

The cook had chosen the people, written the contract, and set up the offerings. Just as He He Yuxiu was about to step forward to respond, she suddenly saw a man come up to talk.

"Eldest Miss He, don't be in a hurry. I have something to discuss with you."

He He Yuxiu stared at the man, examined him for a moment, and asked: "Are you Feng Feng Chongli?"

Hearing this name, Li Li Banfeng also looked over.

Why did Feng Feng Chongli come?

Could it be that he also had his eyes on this territory?

He was a person from Snowflake Pier.

He He Yuxiu hadn't seen wrong; the person who came was indeed Feng Feng Chongli.

Feng Feng Chongli took off his top hat and bowed to He He Yuxiu: "Eldest Miss, that you still remember someone like me is truly Feng's honor. Feng came today because I want to talk about a big deal with you, a big deal of three million ocean dollars."

"Three million ocean dollars?" He He Yuxiu laughed. "This amount is not small. A Baile Gate is only eighty thousand ocean dollars. You first tell me what kind of deal it is?"

Feng Feng Chongli pointed to his feet: "It's this piece of land, a territory of one hundred li in radius. Feng wants to pay three million ocean dollars to buy this piece of land."

He He Yuxiu shook her head: "Not for sale."

Feng Feng Chongli took out an abacus: "If you feel it's too little, the price can still be discussed. You first give a price, and I'll calculate it carefully."

He He Yuxiu wasn't the kind of person who liked to beat around the bush. She didn't waste words with Feng Feng Chongli: "You don't need to calculate. No matter how much money, I won't sell."

Feng Feng Chongli clicked the abacus beads and advised again: "Eldest Miss, you really need to calculate this account well. You must calculate the gains and losses inside clearly.

I know you want this piece of land to ascend above the clouds. I can find you another piece of New Land. This piece of New Land doesn't cost money; I'll give it to you.

Of course, the contract for the New Land I give is incomplete, only one piece. But since it's for ascending above the clouds,

having this one piece is enough. Taking another one is a burden.

Now this territory has two contracts, attracting bees and butterflies, leading many people to stretch their necks and watch. I am a businessman, paying money to buy it from you, but others may not follow these rules. They may not pay money, and they may even want to take your life. Which is the principal and which is the interest, you calculate it yourself."

He He Yuxiu didn't want to be bothered by Feng Feng Chongli anymore: "Everything you say is useless. This territory is not for sale. You leave immediately."

"I estimate you can't make the decision on this matter," Feng Feng Chongli turned his eyes to Li Li Banfeng. "Li Qi, what do you think? Can this business be done?"

Li Li Banfeng was thinking.

He wasn't thinking about how to do the business; he was thinking about how to fight this battle.

If it were someone else, relying on the name of Green Flower, plus the momentum of five thousand Three-Head people, they could be scared away.

But Feng Feng Chongli couldn't be scared away. He wasn't afraid of Green Flower, and facing these five thousand Three-Head people, he didn't seem to be afraid either.

According to the clues provided by An Zongding, Feng Feng Chongli's cultivation had already exceeded above the clouds.

Li Li Banfeng's mansion and travel cultivation were both close to the second level above the clouds. He He Yuxiu had just reached above the clouds and didn't have a level yet, and her body hadn't recovered either.

Relying on just the two of them, they certainly couldn't beat Feng Feng Chongli, and pulling five thousand people to fight together, it was hard to say if they had a chance of winning.

Cultivators above the clouds cannot make a move against the local deity of the place on proper land. Li Qi knew this point.

Facing the local deity of New Land, do they still need to follow this rule? Li Li Banfeng wasn't too clear about this point.

If he wasn't clear, he would ask directly. Li Li Banfeng said: "If we don't want to sell, do you want to buy by force?"

Feng Feng Chongli laughed: "You really hit the nail on the head. I am determined to get this piece of land. You sell, cough, cough, cough, sell, if you don't sell, cough, cough, cough, you also have to, sell—————"

While making ruthless threats, Feng Feng Chongli coughed continuously, which really hurt his momentum.

Li Li Banfeng was also very curious why Feng Feng Chongli suddenly started coughing.

It turned out that a middle-aged man had come to his side and was smoking. He didn't know what kind of tobacco leaves were in the pipe, but it was very choking.

Feng Feng Chongli watched the man hold the pipe and smoke one puff after another. Seeing that the tobacco leaves in the pipe were almost burned out, Feng Feng Chongli specifically asked: "Finished smoking?"

The middle-aged man knocked out the tobacco ash and loaded another pipe in the blink of an eye: "Still early. I smoke three pipes at a time!"

Feng Feng Chongli nodded slightly: "If I'm not mistaken, you are the Three-Pipe Tobacco Leaf Yellow, Senior Ye."

"You guessed wrong. I don't have the surname Ye; I have the surname Huang." Ye Ye Jianhuang lit the tobacco and smoked a puff with a smile.

Feng Feng Chongli bowed: "Senior Ye, are you also here for this territory?"

Ye Ye Jianhuang puffed out smoke and shook his head: "I'm not here for the territory; I'm here for my brother. Lao Qi, I heard your business is open, so I came to congratulate you!"

Li Li Banfeng didn't know Ye Ye Jianhuang, but he remembered a sentence Tang Tang Changfa said at the Changsan Book Apartment.

City Lord Sun found two helpers, one was A-Gui, and the other was A-Huang.

Li Li Banfeng greeted him with a smile: "Brother Huang, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

PS: In July, the performance of the Lord of Puluo Province grew steadily. Sala thanks everyone.

The kindness of the readers is truly endless. I worked hard to write during the day, and I will add a chapter in the early morning tonight to express Sala's deep respect for all the readers.

Tomorrow is the first. The minimum monthly tickets must be left for Sala. In the monthly ticket list, Sala will fight with them again! Must kill into the top ten this month, thank you all readers!
