“It turns out that he climbed up to the Guan family, no wonder,” Mu Nanfeng said as he arrived, feeling enlightened.

“Brother Mu, you are here? Why did you just say it’s no wonder?” Ren Chijing greeted Mu Nanfeng, then asked in confusion.

“I just met Li Tianyan at Laibao Pavilion and saw that he spent 70,000 taels to buy two semi-spiritual weapons from the foreign place.” Mu Nanfeng was curious about the methods Li Tianyan used to win over Guan Haoran. However, as for the prodigal son, no matter how lavish Young Master Guan was, he had never given anyone tens of thousands of taels.

“Seventy thousand taels?” Everyone was shocked by this amount.

“That’s right.” Mu Nanfeng felt a little more balanced seeing the jealous looks on other people’s faces.

“By the way, Brother Mu, didn’t you go to Laibao Pavilion today to buy a new sword? Why didn’t you bring it over?” Hong Tao asked Mu Nanfeng a little strangely when he saw Mu Nanfeng came in empty-handed. Why didn’t he bring it back after buying a new sword? Let them took a look.

“I haven’t bought it yet, but I’m interested in a black gold sword. It’s quite extraordinary. Unfortunately, the hilt is inlaid with blue rock pine, so I didn’t buy it because it didn’t look useful.” Mu Nanfeng shrugged.

Others were a little moved when they heard this. Although they were just acquired warriors, who wouldn’t want to have one or two things related to semi-spiritual weapons?

“Brother Mu, is that the one you are talking about?” Jian Yuhao pointed to Guan Haoran, who was holding a sword underneath and walking into the medicine hall opposite with an air of dignity.

When Mu Nanfeng saw the sword in the opponent’s hand, he almost couldn’t help spitting out a mouthful of blood. Although he had already thought about giving up the sword, it was still difficult for Mu Nanfeng to accept it when he saw it being bought by someone else. And… the person who bought it was Guan Haoran, an ignorant guy.

Everyone sympathized with Mu Nanfeng upon seeing his reaction. It would be a lie to say that Mu Nanfeng really disliked such a sword.

.

“Brother Li, I heard someone said that you appeared in Jincheng today and came out to look for you.” Guan Haoran said loudly to the people inside as soon as he stepped into the medicine hall.

“Young Master Guan, the sword in your hand…” Li Tianyan turned around and was about to say hello when his eyes saw a very familiar soft sword.

“I just went to Laibao Pavilion to look for you and didn’t meet you, so I bought a sword. How about it, it’s not bad.” Guan Haoran smiled and showed off the new sword in his hand.

Li Tianyan: “…” How did Guan Haoran survive until now despite being so prodigal?

“By the way, Brother Li, do you still have the talismans? When will you sell me a few more?” Guan Haoran glanced around before discussing with Li Tianyan in a low voice.

Almost all of his talismans were taken away by his mother at a high price. Now he only had twenty low-level talismans and a handful of banknotes. It was not easy to live such a life with money and nowhere to spend it.

Fortunately, Li Tianyan didn’t know what the other person was thinking.

When he heard that Guan Haoran wanted to buy a talisman, he thought that he had indeed spent a bit too much today and in needs of money, so he nodded, “Come back and pick it up in five days.”

“Okay.” Guan Haoran was completely happy now.

“It turns out that Young Master Guan and Young Master Li have such a good relationship.” The shopkeeper had been observing since Guan Haoran entered. Seeing the lively interaction between Guan Haoran and Li Tianyan, he immediately regretted his earlier behavior.

“That’s necessary. Young Master Li is my brother. When Brother Li comes to buy things from now on, the shopkeeper must not neglect him,” Guan Haoran replied matter-of-factly.

“Absolutely,” the shopkeeper responded with an embarrassed look on his face.

Li Tianyan, observing Guan Haoran’s arrogant expression, sensed that the eldest son of the Guan family might not be as unsophisticated as he appeared. Everyone had their own way of survival, and Guan Haoran’s demeanor was likely a form of self-protection.

“Young Master Li, the medicine has been packed for you. Please take a look first. Also, this is a gold seal given by our medicine hall. You can get a better discount next time you come,” the shopkeeper said, offering the packed medicine bag along with a small seal to please him.

“Let’s go, Brother Li, I’ll treat you to lunch. Let’s go to Biyun Tower for a good meal,” Guan Haoran made a bold invitation as Li Tianyan finished his business.

“It is better to be respectful. This Li thanks Young Master Guan,” Li Tianyan accepted the invitation, and they walked out of the medicine hall together, with Cheng Qi and Li Wu following.

A few people swaggered through the market to Biyun Tower nearby. Onlookers in the teahouse opposite observed the scene, and as Li Tianyan and Guan Haoran walked away, a silence fell with various thoughts among the spectators.
