“Okay,” Yun Luofeng smiled, “Qing Mu, give him one thousand taels of silver.”
Qing Mu was rather reluctant. In his view, that land was totally useless. However, since Yun Luofeng had ordered him, he could only take out a silver certificate with the face value of one thousand tales of silver, and sullenly give it to Master Wu.
Believing he could make the deal today, Master Wu had brought the land deed with him. After verifying the authenticity of the silver certificate he handed the deed to Yun Luofeng.
“Miss Yun, I hope we can have more chances to cooperate in the future. See you.”
He made an obeisance and left without looking back.
No one knew that his heart was bleeding at this moment…
He just sold the land that he bought with three million taels of silver for one thousand taels of silver, and he still felt relieved that someone was willing to take it off his hands.
“Miss Yun,” gazing at his receding figure, Qing Mu frowned, “why do you want this land?”
“As I said, to build a training ground on it.” Yun Luofeng drew back her gaze and drawled with a mischievous smile.
Qing Mu shook his head with a wry smile, “The training ground can be built next to the Medical Tower. We really didn’t need to waste the one thousand taels of silver.”
He was not grudging one thousand tales of silver. He just didn’t want to be swindled by that jerk of the Wu Family!
“No, the training ground will be built on that land,” Yun Luofeng said, stroking her chin and squinted, “but of course, that’s only on the surface.”
Qing Mu paused, “Miss Yun, what do you mean?”
“Don’t you think that land is strange? Why do medicinal herbs planted on it wither for no reason? I think there must be some treasures under it, so I bought it so that we can go underground and search for treasure.”
Hearing Yun Luofeng’s words, Qing Mu was startled. “I was wondering why you were willingly swindled by him. It turns out that he’s the one who was swindled by you!”
According to Yun Luofeng, there were priceless treasures under the land that the Wu Family sold her. The Wu Family people would probably cry out loud after finding out the truth.
“Qing Mu, please take care of tower building. I’ll be away for a few days,” Yun Luofeng said solemnly, and a gleam flickered across her eyes.
Qing Mu paused, “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to check out the land the Wu Family sold me.”
…
The South District.
There was only one quiet and desolate place in the bustling market district. With a lot of weeds on it, this land had no trace of human footprints. Obviously, it had been abandoned for a long time.
Yun Luofeng stopped and asked via soul communication, “Xiao Mo, do you feel anything?”
Xiao Mo hesitated for a while. “I’m not sure, but I can feel a powerful creature existing under the ground. His power is simply scary! Master, let’s not go down there. I’m scared.”
Xiao Mo had never been afraid of anything since he came to this continent, but now Yun Luofeng could feel that even his soul was trembling as if he was really afraid of the creature down here!
“Xiao Mo, I want to go underground and check it. If you can’t stand the aura down there, just wait for me here.”
Xiao Mo’s voice trembled, “Master, it’s really dangerous down there. Let’s leave.”
“Don’t worry. I can handle it.” Yun Luofeng said, looking up at him, her eyes resolute, “How can I grow without experiencing danger? If Yun Xiao was by my side, I wouldn’t take the risk. But he is not here, so I just want to catch up with him as soon as possible. I can’t keep him waiting for me too long. No matter how dangerous it is, I must go down there!”
