Chapter 428: Chapter 428

Li Rao blushed and said, “Spiritual stones rule in the auction, and you can’t blame him for that.”

Li Yi nodded in agreement, “You are right, spiritual stones rule in the auction. Who has more spiritual stones gets the item that he wants. However, fists rule outside the auction house, and you can’t blame Xu Lingfeng for beating Xu Wan up.”

“But Xu Lingfeng is Xu Wan’s uncle,” Li Rao said.

Li Yi smiled and said, “You should go to Xu Wang for help instead of coming to me. If I meet Xu Wan, I will give him a fierce kick.”

Li Rao looked at Li Yi in shock. “Third Uncle, you’ve changed a lot.”

Li Yi drummed the table with his fingers and said, “I don’t think your father allows you to come here. Get lost.”

Li Rao looked at Li Yi and said, “Third Uncle, I heard that you spent 5,000 spiritual stones on a Fire Yang Jade pendant. You seemed to have paid much more than you should.”

“If it weren’t for your fiancé, who had been competing against me, I wouldn’t have spent so many spiritual stones. Ask him to be cautious and stay away when he sees me,” Li Yi said sulkily.

Li Rao looked at Li Yi’s cold face and felt nervous.

“I don’t have time to entertain you now. You can go back.” Li Yi waved his hand.

Li Rao glanced at Li Yi and left sullenly.

Li Shuang watched Li Rao walk out with a gloomy expression on his face. “It’s weird of Miss Li to come and ask for your help.”

Li Yi shook his head and said, “Do you think she came to ask for my help? No, she came to test the water.”

“She is going to side with Xu Wang,” said Li Shuang.

Li Yi said indifferently, “She’s going to marry Xu Wan, and it is natural that she takes his side.”

…

Li Rao walked out of Li Yi’s courtyard, and a carriage pulled up in front of her.

“How is it?” Xu Wan asked.

Li Rao shook her head and said, “I can’t get much information. My third uncle is developing a bad temper instead of a higher cultivation level over the years.”

Xu Wan’s face darkened, and he said, “Looks like he doesn’t have any useful clues.”

“I think someone who knows what had happened back then fabricated the pendant and tried to fool you guys and earn a fortune. He has succeeded it,” said Li Rao mockingly.

“The pendant suddenly showed up after so many years, so we think it unusual,” Xu Wan said.

Li Rao shook her head and said, “The son of my third uncle and your second uncle might not be an Establishment Foundation, and he might be dying of old age if he is still alive.”

Xu Wan said, “It’s likely. That subordinate of my second uncle seemed to have taken that child to an island where Qi was scarce. There was not even a Golden Core, and an Establishment Foundation cultivator could be a king on the island.”

…

Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan waited for more than half a month before they went to visit Li Yi.

“Mr. Xu,” Xiao Jinting was surprised to see Xu Lingfeng standing at the door.

“What have you come here for?” Xu Lingfeng looked at Xiao Jinting warily.

“I heard that Mr. Li is good at handling beasts. I come here to ask for advice,” Xiao Jinting said.

Xu Lingfeng looked at Xiao Jinting and asked suspiciously, “Are you here to ask for advice only?”

Xiao Jinting nodded, “Yes. I heard that although Mr. Li is a Golden Core, he is exceptionally good at handling beasts. He is even much better than many Nascent Souls, so I come to ask for his advice.”

Xu Lingfeng looked at Xiao Jinting defensively, and Xiao Jinting felt uneasy under his scrutinizing gaze.

Xu Muan stood behind Xiao Jinting and looked at Xu Lingfeng curiously.

…

“Young Master, Xiao Jinting has come with his wife, Xu Muan,” Li Shuang said.

Li Yi was a little surprised. “Xu Muan? From the Xu family? ”

Li Shuang shook his head and said, “His surname is Xu, and but he is not from the Xu family. It’s only a coincidence. By the way, Mr. Xu Lingfeng has come.”

“Who is Xiao Jinting?” Li Yi asked.

“He is the First Elder of Green Cloud Immortal Sect, which was a medium sect in Cloud Continent. However, Xiao Jinting is unusual. He got the Spirit Cleansing Pills, and his family has all become single spirit root. His luck is amazing, and he advanced to Nascent Soul before he turned one hundred years old,” Li Shuang said.

Li Yi fell silent for a moment before he said, “He’s a genius, but I don’t know why he comes. Anyway, bring him in.”

“What about Mr. Xu Lingfeng?” Li Shuang asked.

Li Yi shook his head and said irritably, “Ask him to get lost.”

Li Wen smiled helplessly and said, “Alright.”

After a while, Li Shuang entered the room with Xiao Jinting, Xu Muan, and Xu Lingfeng. Li Yi frowned and glanced at Li Shuang, who looked helpless. Li Yi ignored Xu Lingfeng and fixed his gaze on Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan.
