Investment System In Xianxia World Chapter 28

Chapter 28 May I Ask for Your Name, Sir?

The Lingzhi grass was quickly obtained.

After confirming that it was a hundred-year-old Lingzhi grass, Li Xun paid eighty-nine high-grade spirit stones and an additional medium-grade spirit stone to the store clerk.

After paying for the spirit stones, Li Xun held the Lingzhi grass in one hand and looked up at the girl standing at the entrance of Treasure  Pavilion.

Under his gaze, the seemingly ordinary girl was enveloped in a visible white light.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for discovering a white investable person. Investing in one Lingzhi grass can yield fifty medium-grade spirit stones!]

"Only a white investable person?" Li Xun frowned.

This doesn't seem right!

Based on his experience in novels from his past life, even if this destitute girl wasn't the protagonist, she should at least be a female lead. How could she only be a white investable person?

Could it be that the investment targets really have nothing to do with their luck?

"System, are you sure the investable person is only at white-level?"

[Ding, correct]]

"Okay."

Hearing the system confirmation, Li Xun reluctantly accepted this fact.

Although the girl was only a white investable person, it indirectly confirmed his speculation that investable people can be found everywhere as long as he had enough items in his possession.

"Shopkeeper," Li Xun called out.

"Guest, do you need anything else?"

The servant ran over again, smiling, and asked, "What else can I do for you, sir?"

"That girl over there," said Li Xun, putting the Lingzhi grass in the servant's hand and pointing to the girl outside the door. "Give this Lingzhi grass to her."

"Sir, may I ask why?"

The servant was momentarily confused. Just now, he asked what kind of experiment Li Xun wanted to do, and he didn't see any experiment being done. Was the experiment finished so soon?

It turns out that the sir still wants to give the grass to the girl outside.

"What are you waiting for?" Li Xun said impatiently.

"Yes, sir, I'll go right away."

The servant picked up the Lingzhi grass and ran to the door of the Treasure  Pavilion. When he reached the girl, he handed her the Lingzhi grass and said, "Take it. It was given to you by the young master inside."

"Huh?"

The girl looked up, with two obvious tear marks on her dirty face. When she saw the Lingzhi grass handed over by the servant, a glimmer of light appeared in her dull eyes.

She took the Lingzhi grass from the servant and quickly ran into the Treasure  Pavilion.

This time, the two guards did not stop her.

After entering the Treasure  Pavilion, the girl went straight to Li Xun, knelt down with a thud, and said, "Thank you, sir! Sir has shown great kindness to Chu Lingyue!"

"Chu Lingyue will never forget Sir's kindness and will be willing to be a cow or a horse in her next life to repay Sir's favor."

Upon hearing the girl's words, Li Xun touched his nose in embarrassment and couldn't help but look at himself in the mirror. Fortunately, he didn't have any kink for young girls.

When he was sending the Lingzhi Grass just now, his divine sense had already investigated the girl's cultivation aptitude. Although it couldn't be said to be poor, it couldn't be considered good either. It could only be regarded as average, and using her talent alone, joining a sect like Xuan Yan sect would be insanely difficult.

Currently, this young girl was still an ordinary person with no cultivation techniques. It could be certain that she would be nothing but a pile of bone buried underground a hundred years later. The only reward Li Xun could gain from giving her the Lingzhi Grass today was a small reward from the system.

"Get up."

Li Xun reached out a hand and helped the girl up. He said gently, "Your mother's condition is critical. You should go back and take care of her first."

"May I know your name, sir?"

Chu Lingyue stood up and asked softly.

"My name’s Li Xun."

Li Xun casually replied.

"I will never forget your name, sir!"

After speaking, the girl kowtowed to Li Xun before putting the small bundle in her arms at her feet. She quickly stood up and ran away into the distance.

"This little girl…"

Watching Chu Lingyue disappear into the crowd, Li Xun shook his head and smiled.

"Interesting."

In her words just now, Chu Lingyue only mentioned repaying the favor in the next life, but didn't mention repaying the favor in this life. Did she understand the difference between herself and Li Xun?

After all, how could an ordinary person repay the kindness of a cultivator?

Watching Chu Lingyue run away, Li Xun picked up the small bundle she left behind and opened it. He saw the five pieces of low-grade Spirit Stones lying quietly inside, and he fell into deep thought.

"An ordinary person who faces a group of cultivators without fear and dares to break into the Treasure Pavilion, and she can even take out five pieces of low-grade Spirit Stones while wearing tattered clothes… Could that little girl have some mysterious  background?"

He couldn't figure it out for a while, so Li Xun decided to stop thinking about it. He accepted the five low-grade Spirit Stones and silently said in his mind, "System, i want to receive the reward."

"Whoosh."

On the table next to him, a pile of Spirit Stones suddenly appeared and disappeared

Before anyone could see clearly what had happened, Li Xun had already stored the fifty middle-grade spirit stones gifted by the system in his storage ring.

"One Lingzhi Grass for fifty middle-grade spirit stones, not bad, not bad at all," Li Xun consoled himself.

Then, he stood up and walked towards the city gate.

Meanwhile, in a remote corner of Panshi City, Chu Lingyue ran into an alleyway.

In the past, this shabby alleyway was deserted, but today it was different. Suddenly, a group of fierce looking warriors stationed inside the alleway, which should not have been possible to exist in a small location like the Panshi City!

There were thousands of them, each wearing armor and riding on fierce beasts. They held spears and pikes high in the air, their bodies flashing with metallic luster and exuding a chilling aura.

Thousands of them had gathered here, but not one of them excluding a sound.

Their elite level could be seen just from this alone.

After Chu Lingyue ran into the alleyway, a leading general dismounted from his fierce beast and knelt down in front of her, saying in a low voice, "Greetings, Little Princess. Please come with us back to the Imperial Dynasty!"
