Chapter 389: 390: The Grand Opening of the Good Goods Shop
The third-floor women’s bathhouse, fee: eight top-grade Spirit Stones for two hours.
The reason for the lower charge for female cultivators was the gender disparity among cultivators; there were far fewer women, and they had fewer opportunities to acquire Spirit Stones, thus it wouldn’t be fair to charge them as much.
Although Yang Guang didn’t understand why all the upstairs was being transformed into bathhouses, since it was Li Xiaobai’s decision, there must be a deeper meaning to it.
Perhaps, like the Pudong Rooster, it held some unique efficacy.
“Yang Huan will be responsible for the men’s bathhouse, and also bring that fresh meat you found last time to take care of the women’s bathhouse.”
Li Xiaobai began to arrange the work.
“Which fresh meat?”
Yang Huan seemed to realize something and asked.
“The most handsome one.”
“Junior Brother Zhang Xiuning?”
“Yeah, him.”
Li Xiaobai said impatiently, these were trivial matters. The main goal was to use good looks to attract cultivators. Men like to look at women, and women like to look at men; this is an eternal truth.
However, in Yang Huan’s eyes, the meaning twisted. She believed that the boss wanted to have the fresh meat for himself. That he wanted to have a secret rendezvous with the fresh meat in the bathhouse, no wonder he never added any color before. It turned out the boss was into scenarios.
“No problem, boss, rest assured, I’ll bring him over tomorrow,” Yang Huan said with a bright smile.
Seeing her smirk, Li Xiaobai knew this woman was definitely thinking crookedly again, but it was no big deal. She had been mentally unwell for more than a day or two. As long as it didn’t interfere with his plans, she could think whatever she wanted.
“Woof, kid, hurry up and fill it with water, Lord Ergouzi wants to take a bath!”
Ergouzi watched the familiar scene with excitement. A Tangneng First-class bathhouse could enhance cultivation, something it had deeply experienced.
“Get lost, this is for people to soak in, not for dogs.”
Li Xiaobai kicked Ergouzi aside and said indifferently.
Allowing this wretched dog to sneak into the bathhouse would be nothing short of lowering the establishment’s tone.
“Woof, kid, you’re looking down on your Lord Ergouzi!”
Ergouzi was furious and lunged to tear and bite but was firmly caught by Jiang Yi.
Through this series of actions, Jiang Yi had thoroughly understood that this Li Xiaobai in front of him was probably not any young prodigy. The signs he showed were not those a normal genius would display.
Being able to move unimpeded on the battlefield, and possessing such treasures, his cultivation level must have reached the Mahayana Realm. He was an existence of his rank. Otherwise, people like Cai Kunxu wouldn’t keep calling him a senior.
It seems that the elders of Central Province were all deceived. This person is definitely not some Tribulation Crossing prodigy. If someone truly believes the words of the Central Province elders and comes to trouble Li Xiaobai, they are likely to die a horrible death.
Such a figure could turn the tide in a border warzone with a single maneuver—someone to be befriended, not antagonized.
“It’s not that I’m looking down on you, but I will build a special kennel just for you,” Li Xiaobai said nonchalantly, examining if there was anything missing in the house.
“The quality shop will officially open tomorrow. Once the Teleportation Formation is fixed, cultivators from the fourth battlefield will be able to come over.”
“Everyone should go back to rest now and return tomorrow.”
After sending everyone away, Li Xiaobai sat cross-legged on the bed and checked his System panel.
Several days had passed, and his stats had grown more or less.
[Host: Li Xiaobai.]
[…]
[Defensive Power: Half-step Human Immortal body (21,100,000 / 10,000,000) (Immortal Spirit Qi: not acquired) can be advanced.]
[Attribute Points: zero.]
[Hellfire (Divine Level skill) initial coverage area: 410 meters.]
[Pet: Pudong Rooster (Current number of deaths: ten.)]
[Phoenix Bloodline: 0.01/100.]
[Achievements: Trouble-Maker (25/108).]
He hadn’t been actively seeking out big shots to brush up Attribute Points lately, so the increase in his defensive power was a bit slow.
Moreover, after Mei Changqing put out the flames on the fourth battlefield with a wave of his hand, the initial coverage range of the flames suddenly plummeted. If it weren’t for the fact that he had scorched a considerable number of Flesh Mountains on the battlefield today, he probably wouldn’t have recovered to this number.
It must be said, having his afk flames extinguished really hurt.
But the days ahead were long, and once the situation on the fourth battlefield stabilized, he’d go to the third battlefield and collect the flames.
…
The next morning.
The Teleportation Formation between the Holy City and the fourth battlefield had been completed.
Countless cultivators thronged to the site. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and the moment the Teleportation Formation was completed, they swarmed into the Holy City.
Even Cai Kunxu was no exception.
He was surprised; he hadn’t expected Li Xiaobai to possess such a Teleportation Formation. Moreover, the Formation blueprint he provided was so simple it was unbelievable, easily constructed.
And its effect was identical to the overly complicated Teleportation Formations in the major cities of Central Province—simply incredible.
Perhaps this was what true big shots were like: the great way is true and simple, turning complexity into simplicity, accomplishing it effortlessly.
The center of Holy City was packed with people. The previously empty and somewhat desolate space was now crammed with cultivators.
The words “Quality Shop” had already caught their eyes, and the faint scent emanating from inside the shop was that of Huazi.
“Young Master Li, we’re here!”
“I want to buy a pack of Huazi!”
“I want to buy ten packs!”
“I’m going to buy a hundred packs for my family back home, let mom and dad taste such a divine good too!”
“Same here…”
The cultivators jostled and clamored at the entrance of the shop.
Li Xiaobai watched as Spirit Stones continuously streamed in, his smile nearly splitting his face. He estimated that at least several thousand cultivators had shown up today, the majority making bulk purchases, each buying hundreds of packs of Huazi, quite generous indeed.
It was just the beginning, but the income from top-grade Spirit Stones had already broken past one hundred thousand.
The cultivators who had snatched up Huazi couldn’t wait to try one. Squatting on the ground, they created clouds of smoke, and the cultivators behind didn’t mind their space being taken, equally indulging in the blissful experience.
Their minds felt peacefully empty, the sensation was truly magical.
“No need to fight or rush, there’s enough for everyone, let’s take it one at a time!”
“Additionally, the second and third floors are also my shops, called Tangneng First-class, very effective for cultivation, oh! If you have time, feel free to give it a try. However, space is limited, so it’s first-come-first-served.”
Li Xiaobai said while handing out Huazi, chuckling.
Hearing this, many cultivators were tempted. They felt Li Xiaobai probably wouldn’t scam them.
If the Quality Shop was already this miraculous, then Tangneng First-class upstairs probably wouldn’t be too far behind.
“Let’s go, let’s check it out!”
“It’s said to have strange effects on cultivation, perfect! I’ve been stuck at the Divinity Transformation Stage for months now, maybe today I’ll find the opportunity for a breakthrough right here at Young Master Li’s!”
