Starting Cultivation During a Trip

Chapter 364 193: Chen Dragon and Human Xiao! Li Yishan's Father_3

At this moment, Lin Jianyue's gaze fell upon the tiger bone Zhang Fan had just obtained from Hong San.

The pale yellow bone glistened with a shiny oil sheen, its surface veined with subtle blood streaks—considered top-notch among tiger bones.

"Interested?" Zhang Fan spoke up.

Originally, he planned to sell it; keeping it would be useless for him. Perhaps he could sell it to Jiang Hu, who also used tiger bone for talisman painting.

"I could use it for medicine refining." Lin Jianyue nodded.

The Thirteen Zodiacs, each with their own strengths.

Maotu Lin Jianyue practices [Medicine Furnace Pill Transformation], refining as an alchemist, collecting great medicines for her cultivation to strengthen the primordial spirit and create various magical elixirs.

For example, the [Chaotic God Pill], [Magic Sword Pill], [Medicinal Fire Pill], and others she had used at the Imprisoned Immortal Temple are all elixirs she refined.

The more elixirs Lin Jianyue refines, the stronger her cultivation becomes.

Because of this, her cultivation is extremely costly. When encountering good medicinal materials and exotic treasures, she spares no effort to acquire them, and she earns money just as quickly.

In real life, Lin Jianyue works with various medicine vendors, with profits unimaginable to ordinary people.

"I'll give you 120,000 for these two pieces of tiger bone, already thirty percent above market price." Lin Jianyue said confidently.

She could tell the two tiger bones Zhang Fan held weren't from regular tigers; they likely came from Wang Yue gathering herbs and were close to becoming spirit monsters.

This type of tiger bone is indeed rare.

"So valuable!?" Zhang Fan's eyes lit up.

Hong San was indeed generous, offering such an expensive gift as a greeting.

But thinking about it, these items were originally meant for Sui Chunsheng, and he just got lucky.

Sui Chunsheng is a public officer of the Jiangnan Province Daoist Alliance, and their relationship...

Mixed thoughts stirred within Zhang Fan. He snapped back to reality, shaking his head, "I can only sell you one piece."

The remaining piece should be shown to Jiang Hu; maybe he could use it.

"If there's only one piece of tiger bone, I can only offer 50,000." Lin Jianyue replied coolly.

"Deal." Zhang Fan agreed without bargaining, as they were free gains.

The two exchanged instant messaging; Lin Jianyue directly transferred 50,000 yuan to Zhang Fan and took one piece of tiger bone.

With 50,000 credited to his account, plus the rental income from the yard that Si Snake Bai Yujing had left him, Zhang Fan's deposit finally approached six figures.

"I'll be off now, contact me if needed."

With that, Lin Jianyue rose to leave, as she spent most of her time cultivating and refining elixirs; the leisure just now was quite rare.

Seeing off the trouble, Zhang Fan breathed a slight sigh of relief, but his nerves remained taut.

As long as Maotu is in Yujing City, he can't afford to relax.

"I've got money now, might splurge a bit tonight."

Grinning, Zhang Fan dialed Li Yishan's number.

"Hello..."

The sound of Li Yishan's voice came from the other end, sounding somewhat tired and different from usual.

"Come out for hot pot tonight, my treat." Zhang Fan, generous for once, offered.

"Zhang Fan? Today?"

After a brief silence, Li Yishan's voice came through again, seeming somewhat disoriented.

"What's up with you? Haven't slept?" Zhang Fan asked.

"Not today." Li Yishan replied.

"Something up?"

"I might have to see my dad."

"Your dad?" Zhang Fan paused, then asked strangely, "Wasn't your dad dead?"

"Your stepmom found you a stepdad?"

After another brief silence, Li Yishan's voice finally sounded again.

"Right, my dad is dead."

"Huh!? Wait, was your phone stolen? Is this really Li Yishan? Do you still know who your dad is?" Zhang Fan asked seriously.

Silence, just silence.

Then, Li Yishan's familiar voice eerily arose.

"I know..."

"My father is Li Cunsi!"

Li Yishan answered in an almost strange tone.
