After that, Lu Xiaoyu showed the old man her phone gallery, “This is Naughty Pig, and Big Cat. Lu Shu bought this house on the hill, and this is our farmland…”

Li Xianyi hesitated before asking, “Why do you only grow chives, Lu Shu…?”

“Easy to sell,” Lu Shu was busy thinking about his sea of chi and the snow mountain, he felt miserable about the prospects of this killer weapon of his.

Lu Xiaoyu passed her phone to Li Xianyi for him to scroll through the photos himself. She loved to take photos and Li Xianyi would have a rough idea of the happenings around the siblings based on the pictures and Lu Xiaoyu’s description.

Of course, Lu Xiaoyu was smart enough to exclude big secrets in it, like Anthony…

Still, in a fit of annoyance, Lu Shu shot a glance at Li Xianyi, “Grandpa, you can switch to the next photo with a swipe of your finger. There’s no need to apply your saliva…”

Lu Shu was feeling bad for the new phone he had just bought for Lu Xiaoyu…

Li Xianyi paused, “… habits.”

“From Li Xianyi’s distress, +401…”

The old man was never familiar with phones. Now, although he got himself a satellite phone so he could receive Xiaoyu’s calls, it was not a touch-screen one either…

“Alright,” Li Xianyi wiped clean the screen with his sleeve and returned the phone to Lu Xiaoyu. Honestly speaking, he was not too worried about the Lu siblings, as they had been living well even before they met him. Thus, there was no reason they would be worse off after he left and Li Xianyi did not think it was necessary to give himself any extra credits.

In fact, most people liked to be extra. They easily got the wrong idea that they were replaceable and unimportant if other people’s lives were equally good regardless of their presence. Then, they may try hard to do something so as to seem “special”.

Li Xianyi did not stay for long. Before he left, he reminded them, “This time, the Golden Foundation has sent people into the remain as well, led by Zhi Wei. You have probably met before but I’m not sure if you still remember him. They will be wearing our logo. However, bear this in mind, never let your guard down against them, although they are more reliable than others in most situations. After all, people can change.”

It served as a hint that there might have been something wrong inside the Foundation.

According to Li Xianyi, during the great depression before the Spirit Qi regeneration, the Golden Foundation was the biggest entity of superpowers in the world. These days, however, its status was under constant attack.

This had resulted in two branches of ideologies, one to uphold the Foundation’s vision of peace and protection, while the other advocated for an active competition for resources, so as to better fulfill the Foundation’s duties.

There was no clear right or wrong. But Lu Shu would certainly get all he could before he started on the topic of who needed a guardian.

The other party was not at fault either. Competitions brought about casualties and no one would yield their resources for free to the Golden Foundation.

After a long moment, the name Zhi Wei finally rang a bell. Was he not the guy who was good at bearing grudges?

Within ten minutes after Li Xianyi was gone, a new entry of distress points flashed on Lu Shu’s background panel “From Li Yixiao’s distress, +999!”. Lu Shu drew a startled breath, it seemed he went after Li Yixiao… that was totally unexpected from Li Xianyi’s earlier reaction.

It must have been due to Lu Xiaoyu’s words about Lu Shu being roped in by Li Yixiao. Otherwise, his distress points would not have been attributed to him…

Although quiet, the old man could take really harsh action…

Soon, Li Yixiao climbed over the walls behind the safety house into the yard stealthily. He poked his gigantic head into the window, his face swollen with bruises, “Did the old man come back after he beat me up? Did I reveal anything?”

“Everything’s clear on your face…” Lu Shu hissed, “Quickly take a shower and get changed. Speaking of which, where did you go at night, Heavenly King Li?”

“Pattaya is not safe now. You must be more careful outdoors. Without capabilities of my level, I can’t guarantee your safety,” Li Yixiao avoided the question, it would be simpler to not mention where he went.

But in reality, among the three of them, everyone was safe excluding himself…

Before he entered the bathroom, Li Yixiao added, “We reached here later than many organizations. They came more than a month ago. Also, many Practitioners’ markets are already open in secret, where goods are exchanged or sold. I know a rather popular place and the one hosted by the Golden Foundation is relatively safe. We can go and take a look tomorrow. Although the invitation is indeed hard to get, with me, you don’t have to worry!”

“We, are not worrying about anything. Please, we have eyes and brains…” Li Yixiao was on Lu Xiaoyu’s current version of the blacklist.

In fact, obtaining an invitation was not a difficult issue, as it simply served to distinguish between the commoners and the Practitioners. Li Yixiao had already received one before he headed to Thailand, from Nie Ting.

Such markets were of interest to the Heavenly Network, as it was a rare opportunity to have international cultivation resources gathered in one place. Thus, the Network hoped to acquire some magical weapons for focused training of some internal practitioners.

Surely, it was not Li Yixiao’s duty.

Why not? Because Nie Ting was not out of his mind yet…

Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu exchanged a look of assurance, he needed such markets.

Sixty magical stones were a universally valuable currency. Be it Metahumans or Practitioners, everyone could use it to accelerate the growth of their power. Unsurprisingly, some rich people even bought it for their magical pets. With regard to other stuff…

Lu Shu had not decided whether to sell his eleven petals, which was equivalent to the combined energy of six-hundred and sixty magical stones. He had to judge the situation carefully before he showed them in public.

At this moment, the doorbell rang. Lu Shu whispered cautiously, “I’m going to open the door. Be careful.”

This meant, get ready to attack if the visitor was malicious.

Unexpectedly, outside the door stood Zhi Wei. What was he doing here?

Zhi Wei smiled and looked at Lu Shu without uttering a word. After the last meeting, he took great efforts in coming up with a counter against Lu Shu’s nasty greeting. His final decision was to let Lu Shu greet him first!

Zhi Wei almost jumped at the idea. How brilliant!

After a long and silent two minutes, Lu Shu raised his brows and an English word escaped his teeth, “Hello.”

“From Zhi Wei’s distress, +666!”
