As the largest comprehensive store in the city, Tianhua Building will not be closed either during the day or at night. And because of the cover of the night, it is a little more secretive, making it even more popular among the monks.
Therefore, at night, business is often more prosperous than during the day.
Just like in Tianhua Building at the moment, monks are constantly coming in and out of the lobby on the first floor, each selecting the products they need. There are also a lot of shop assistants, who are constantly communicating with the surrounding customers to explain.
The arrival of Mo Juren and his entourage naturally attracted the attention of many people. However, unlike many years ago, many people had no impression because they had not appeared for so long. Therefore, most people just glanced at it and stopped paying attention.
p>
Even the mortal clerks in charge of reception in the store did not recognize him. After so many years, the early batch of young clerks were already very old, so naturally they could not stay at the front desk, including the Lin sisters, who had long since disappeared.
No trace.
Mo Juren didn't care about this and immediately walked towards the stairs. After a while, he led several people to the fourth floor. After entering the hall, he happened to see Xiaomei sitting behind a wooden table, hunched over and busy with her head down.
There are eight maids around the figure, waiting quietly at the left and right.
Although he didn't say a word, he seemed to have the aura of a superior person.
Seeing this, Mo Juren couldn't help but sigh, Xiaomei is becoming more and more mature, and this steady demeanor is far beyond the comparison of the hot-tempered little girl in the past.
Vaguely aware of something, she subconsciously raised her head. When she saw the person coming, Xiaomei suddenly smiled and said, "Senior, why are you back just now? The lady has been waiting for you?"
"I will go there later. In addition, you can watch these people settle down and live in Tianhua Building for the time being." Mo Juren guessed that Xin Ruyin must have something to do, so he did not hesitate and gave a few instructions immediately.
p>
"Are you all staying?" Xiaomei glanced at Qi Yunxiao without asking the reason, and continued,
"Senior, don't worry, I will arrange it properly."
"There is still this person." Mo Juren raised his hand and pointed towards Yang Xiong, and said again,
"After settling in, take him to my room."
"Okay."
"..."
After giving a few instructions again, Mo Juren left the hall and headed straight for the fifth floor.
Xiaomei didn't waste any time and summoned several maids to start giving orders one by one.
……
Xin Ruyin's realm is only in the Qi training period. Although she doesn't need to spend a lot of time sleeping and resting like ordinary people. However, her cultivation level is too low and she still needs a certain amount of sleep every day.
Fortunately, it was not too late at this time, and the other party's room was still lit.
He knocked on the door, but got no response, which made Mo Juren a little surprised.
Letting go of his consciousness, he saw the other person sitting alone in front of the window, looking out at the night outside the window in a daze. Maybe he was too immersed in his own world and didn't even hear the knock on the door.
Mo Juren probably guessed what the other party was thinking, and couldn't help but sigh. He slowly opened the door and stepped in.
When we got closer, we also looked out the window. I have to say that the location here is good, and I can have a panoramic view of the night view of this city.
"Senior is back." Xin Ruyin came back to her senses and asked softly. She didn't show any surprise, as if the departure of decades was just a blink of an eye.
"In a bad mood?" Mo Juren nodded and then asked.
"I'm also trying my best to tell myself that it was just an accident and not his original intention. However, it's still hard to let go." Xin Ruyin sighed softly and smiled helplessly,
"In the final analysis, I am just a mortal after all, and I don't have that kind of transcendent state of mind."
"Because you care, that's why you struggle. If you don't have him in your heart, it will be easier to accept." Mo Juren shook his head slightly.
"Maybe." Xin Ruyin smiled and then changed the topic,
"I would also like to congratulate the seniors for successfully breaking through to the Danjie stage and taking one step further on the road to greatness."
"I'm not the only one who wants to congratulate you, you are no exception." Mo Juren replied with a half-smile.
"Me!" Xin Ruyin was stunned for a moment. What could she have to congratulate? Even after such a thing happened, her mood was at a low point and she couldn't think of where the joy would come from?
Ridiculing? Gloating?
Obviously it's impossible. Based on her understanding of Mo Juren, he is definitely not the kind of unreliable person. There must be some reason why he said such things.
"Senior, why don't you just say it if you have something to say?"
"Think carefully about the promise I made to you?"
"Promise?" His water-clear eyes blinked slightly, and after a while, as if he suddenly thought of something, a bright light suddenly lit up,
"What senior said is about my body."
"It's pretty fast, I thought it would take a while." Mo Juren nodded and continued,
"I said at the beginning that there is no guarantee that Mo will achieve Yuanying within a hundred years, but there is absolutely no problem in breaking through the core formation within a few decades. In addition, Mo's status in the Spirit Beast Mountain will make it difficult to find a Yuanying.
It is not difficult for Ancestor Qi to lose a burst of Xuanyin spiritual power to you every once in a while.
It just so happens that in three days I will go to Zizhi Peak to meet Patriarch Chiling. At that time, you will go with me, and I will also tell you about your story. I think it won’t be a big problem."
"Will... will it be too troublesome..." Xin Ruyin was obviously a little uncontrollably excited after hearing the other party's words.
Although she looks calm on weekdays, seeing the familiar people around her constantly improving their cultivation while she can only linger on during the Qi training period, the depressing feeling is indescribable.
It's a pity that my body has been dragging me down all these years, so I can only think about it. But now, if I can really continue to practice, it would be so gratifying.
"It's not as difficult as you think. Besides, you are still in the Qi training period, and the Xuanyin spiritual power required is not much. It is just a piece of cake for the ancestor." Mo Juren smiled and continued.
Tao,
"What you should be more worried about is the issue of elixirs, because even if you have Xuanyin spiritual power to balance yin and yang, you still need a lot of elixirs to assist.
I know that you have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. Buying some pure Yin elixirs is not a problem. However, as your cultivation level increases, more and more elixirs will be needed, and the level will be higher. Just rely on
Your little net worth is far from enough."
The problem was very realistic, and Xin Ruyin's originally happy heart suddenly turned cold.
Although the other party has given a solution, it is only a temporary solution and cannot fundamentally solve the shortcomings of the Dragon Roar Body. As a result, if you want to continue practicing, you will need a lot of resource assistance.
Over the years, she has indeed accumulated a lot of wealth through the platform of Tianhua Tower, but that is only relative to normal monks, and her own special situation is obviously far from enough.
"Are you worried?" Mo Juren asked with a smile.
"I originally thought I was very rich, but now it seems that I am still far from it, especially compared to you, the owner of the Mo Building, I am just a pauper." Xin Ruyin nodded and sighed softly.
"It doesn't matter if you are poor, I can lend it to you and pay it back slowly in the future."
"I'm afraid I won't finish it until I die." Xin Ruyin smiled helplessly.
"Haha, don't be anxious, just take your time, I won't collect debts from you." Mo Juren joked with a smile and said again,
"Okay, you don't have to worry about such trivial matters. Your health is the most important thing. You can practice with peace of mind in the future. If you are in urgent need, you can use the resources of Tianhua Building at will. You are welcome in this regard, I agree."<
/p>
Xin Ruyin was extremely moved when she heard the other party's promise. These years of getting along with her also made her understand the other party's character very well. He is the kind of person who is extremely ruthless to his enemies but extremely kind to his own people.
Such a person is simply the perfect person to follow. She can't help but feel happy that joining him was definitely the wisest choice she made in her life.
"No matter whether he succeeds in the end or not, Ruyin will always remember the great kindness of his predecessors, and will always follow him in the future..." Xin Ruyin knew clearly in her heart that whether it was the life-saving grace in the past or the problem of going to Zizhi Peak to resolve her physical condition this time,
It was impossible to repay the kindness. She owed the other party too much, and she would owe more in the future. She was afraid that it would take her whole life to repay it. She simply made a promise immediately to follow the other party forever and do her best.
Do something for it.
"You make such an important decision so easily, don't you worry about following the wrong person?" Mo Juren continued to ask with a smile.
"I believe in my own vision." Xin Ruyin replied firmly.
"That's my honor." Mo Juren shook his head slightly, stopped dwelling on the topic, and turned to ask about Tianhua Building. He hadn't been back for so many years, so he was a little unfamiliar with some specific situations.
"I was about to report to senior." The reason why Xin Ruyin waited for the other party to come back was also for this matter. However, she did not answer immediately, but said with a mysterious smile,
"Before I report, please allow me to put myself out there. Senior, please wait for a moment."
After saying that, he immediately turned around and walked towards a large wall engraved with complicated patterns. He raised his delicate hand and moved it gently in different positions.
The next moment, the originally clear image suddenly blurred and disappeared in an instant, replaced by a completely black wall.
"You set up a formation on it!" Mo Juren still didn't understand what was going on. This was obviously some kind of illusory formation. However, this formation really surprised him. With his current powerful spiritual power,
I didn't notice it at all.
"Nine-star locking element formation, seniors should be familiar with it, right?"
"Of course it's not unfamiliar!" Mo Juren nodded. It was one of the dozen formations inherited by the Ice Soul Fairy. Not only did it have a strong shielding effect on spiritual consciousness, it could also block the vitality of the world and prevent it from having any influence.
Exposed.
However, this formation is one of the top large-scale formations among more than a dozen formations. Not only is it extremely powerful, but it is also huge in scale. It is impossible to complete it simply by simply carving it on the wall.<
/p>
"I made certain deletions and changes." Xin Ruyin obviously guessed his thoughts and gave a simple explanation. Then, he reached out and patted a certain location, and the dark wall slowly rose.
When he stood up, the scene that was revealed immediately made Mo Juren's eyes light up.
In the central area of the large wall, there are ten small squares neatly built, and in each square, there is a small storage bag.
Mo Juren probably guessed something in his mind, and couldn't help but admire his fantastic idea. Naturally, Tianhua Building has its own secret warehouse, which contains a large amount of supplies.
However, the other party rebuilt a similar existence here, which is much safer than there.
"When was this built?" Mo Juren asked curiously. At the same time, he raised his hand and took one out for inspection.
"Five years ago, when the Han family was already planning to leave, in order to protect the interests of Tianhua Building more safely, I personally arranged everything here." Xin Ruyin replied.
"You did it yourself!" Mo Juren looked slightly surprised. However, the project here is not big. After all, the opponent is a monk in the Qi training period, so it is not difficult to do it. What's more, there is only one key point here.
That is the formation used to cover up, and for Xin Ruyin it is even easier to capture.
"Yes, in order to keep it as secret as possible, I didn't even tell Xiaomei." Xin Ruyin nodded and continued,
"This is not all the profits of Tianhua Tower for more than 40 years, but only a part of them. The rest were taken to Tianluo Kingdom by several ladies."
"It's only part of it!" Mo Juren was even more surprised. The storage bag in his hand alone contained thousands of mid-level spiritual stones, and hundreds of thousands of low-level spiritual stones. If there were all these on this wall,
The total number of spiritual stones is at least five million, including those taken away, which is really surprising.
This was far beyond his expectation. After all, there is only one main store in Tianhua Building, and profits are limited and cannot reach such a high level.
"Senior, do you still remember the rules of the franchise store you created?" Xin Ruyin guessed his thoughts and reminded him in a low voice.
"You mean, the franchise fee?" Mo Juren couldn't help but feel moved. Sure enough, the latter nodded and said again,
"As Mo Dao continues to expand in recent years, Tianhualou's franchise branches have also opened in dozens of surrounding countries, and the scale has long been different from the same."
Having said this, he flipped his slender hand, and a huge scroll with a length of three feet emerged, and then was suspended in mid-air under the control of magic power.
The scroll slowly opened, revealing a detailed map of the entire Tiannan, with each country clearly marked on it.
Not to mention the north and south, there are countless countries in the large central area alone. Except for the two large countries of Tianluo Kingdom and Fengdu Kingdom, there are more than a dozen other medium-sized countries, and similar to Jiang Kingdom, Che
There are fifty or sixty small countries like Qiguo.
"Senior, please see, these red-marked locations are where Tianhualou branches are located. Basically every small country has two or three, while medium-sized countries are similar to Yue, with seven to ten branches." Xin Ruyin pointed out.
, mainly countries in the eastern region, but none of them are within the sphere of influence of the Righteous Path Alliance.
