Cultivate, Sign In, And Be Rewarded Handsomely Chapter 255 – Persistence  

Only then did Yang Zhi have the chance to carefully size up this strange uncle who had suddenly barged in. This uncle looked quite strange just now, but he didn't seem so strange now. Moreover, he looked more amiable. However, no matter what, it was precisely because this uncle suddenly spoke that the kid reacted. Otherwise, he would definitely not have been able to react when he suddenly did not notice. Yang Zhi still thought that way.

Yang Tianqi protected his son behind him and looked at Li Yuanqing solemnly.

The little beggar stood in front of Hall Master Wang. He had left after winning just now, but he was suddenly called back by Hall Master Wang. No one knew what was going on.

Li Yuanqing took out the Lingzhi Grass and handed it to Yang Zhi.

Yang Zhi looked at Li Yuanqing strangely, not knowing what this uncle was up to. Hadn't he already lost this thing? Why was he giving it back now?

“I've already lost. This Lingzhi Grass is no longer mine.”

Yang Zhi walked out from behind his father and turned to look at the little beggar. The little beggar was already looking at his Lingzhi Grass aggrievedly. He felt even worse when it was given to someone else. He turned his head away, not wanting to look.

“Let me ask you, did you really plant this Lingzhi Grass there to lure spirit beasts?”

Yang Zhi replied with red eyes, “How can it be fake? We brothers prepared this for a long time, and it was picked up by someone else for no reason, I even lost to him.”

Li Yuanqing placed the lingzhi grass in Yang Zhi's hand. “Since this is yours, I'll return it to you.”

Yang Zhi was very puzzled. He glanced at the little beggar beside him. The little beggar was also unhappy, but he could only endure it obediently. “But I lost.”

Li Yuanqing called the little beggar in front of him and took out a small bottle. He casually poured out a few pills from the bottle and stuffed them into the little beggar's mouth.

The two little fellows were very curious as they smelled the very rich fragrance. The pill looked very powerful.

However, this kind of pill was not something they could come into contact with now. It was something that only adults could have. These children usually only took a look, so they did not know how precious this pill was.

However, Hall Master Wang and Yang Tianqi, who were standing at the side, were really dumbfounded. What was that thing that Li Yuanqing took out just now? Wasn't that the Vitality Reinforcement Pill?

That kind of pill was very expensive in the market. He just casually took it out and gave it to a little beggar he didn't know at all.

The little beggar followed Li Yuanqing's instructions and swallowed the pills. After eating them, he felt a warmth in his stomach, so he smiled happily and politely knelt down to kowtow to Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly pulled him up and made him stand beside him.

“Since that lingzhi grass is yours, I must return it to you. However, since the little guy won the competition, there must be a reward. I'll pay for this reward this time, but in the future, you have to fight for it yourself.”

The little beggar looked at Li Yuanqing very seriously and nodded heavily. “Young Master, don't worry. I'll definitely work hard!”

Yang Tianqi, who had been talking a lot just now, was speechless. Li Yuanqing's actions had really dumbfounded them. Who was this person? Why was he so generous? They had never heard of such a person before.

Although Rong City looked very big, it was actually only this big. If there were especially rich people here, everyone would know each other and have heard of them. They had probably seen them before.

However, Li Yuanqing looked like a young and unknown kid. It was unknown where he came from, but he was so generous now. It was really confusing.

The two of them did not say anything. Li Yuanqing asked the two children, “I lack two children to follow me now. I see that the two of you are both talented and smart. I wonder if you're interested in following me out to travel?”

Li Yuanqing was followed by Hu Jiujiu and the Man-eating Vine. However, he had to leave the huge Ping City to the two of them to manage. Now that the two of them were not by his side and the Blood Vine had disappeared for no reason, Li Yuanqing felt a little lonely.

Now that he suddenly saw these two children, he inexplicably had the thought of nurturing these two children. He was filled with emotions.

When the two children heard Li Yuanqing's words, they immediately hesitated. The two of them had never experienced this before and did not know what this big brother meant. What would happen if they followed him? It was hard to say what would happen.

Seeing that the two children were very hesitant, Li Yuanqing hurriedly said, “It's fine. If the two of you don't want to leave with me, it's fine. Think about it carefully. There's no hurry. We have plenty of time.”

Yang Zhi bit his lip and looked at Li Yuanqing as if he had something to say. However, he looked at his father beside him and held back his words.

On the other hand, Li Yuanqing originally felt that the little beggar had nothing to worry about. However, the little beggar hesitated for a long time and did not speak. He frowned and looked very conflicted.

When Hall Master Wang heard Li Yuanqing's reaction, he was extremely anxious.

He hurriedly walked to the little beggar's side and urged him, “My little ancestor, do you know what kind of person this person in front of you is? It's your fortune that Young Master Li can make such a request with you. Why are you hesitating?”

After thinking for a long time, the little beggar shook his head regretfully and said to Li Yuanqing apologetically, “Young Master, thank you very much for giving me these pills. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely try my best to compensate you. However, I still have my own things to do and can't leave Rong City.”

Hall Master Wang hurriedly hugged the little beggar and said to him carefully, “My little ancestor, why can't you understand? As long as you can follow Young Master Li, you will be able to get anything you want in the future. How can you be so hesitant now?”

However, the little beggar was very persistent. He gritted his teeth and looked at Hall Master Wang as he replied, “I can't leave. After I leave, no one will take care of Grandma Wang. She went crazy from cultivating and most of her meridians are crippled. If I leave, she will definitely be very sad.”

“Grandma Wang?”

Hall Master Wang hurriedly explained, “Young Master, you don't know. This kid lives with Grandma Wang and has been here for so many years.”

The little beggar looked at Li Yuanqing gratefully and said, “Thank you very much for remembering me, but I'm going back now!”

After the little beggar finished speaking, he jogged out of Yang Tianqi's cave abode. This decision was very painful for him. There were clear benefits in front of him. This young master was clearly extraordinary. If he could follow him, it would definitely be much more comfortable than living in that narrow cave abode. However, he could not let go and let Grandma Wang stay here alone.

Hall Master Wang wanted to follow and find the little beggar, but Li Yuanqing stopped him. Instead of being anxious, he looked at Yang Zhi.

After Yang Zhi noticed Li Yuanqing's gaze, he hurriedly hid behind his father and shook his head carefully.

“What about you? Why again?”

“I want to follow Father. I'm not going anywhere.”

Li Yuanqing stood up with a smile. He did not seem to be disappointed that he did not receive these two disciples.

“Does that mean you've both made your decisions?”

Yang Zhi looked very indignant. He nodded heavily and closed his eyes. “Young Master, please leave. I will stay by Father's side.”

“Hall Master Wang, let's go then. It seems like we really came at the wrong time today.”

As Li Yuanqing spoke, he really left with Hall Master Wang without any intention of fighting for it.

When Hall Master Wang arrived at the foot of the mountain, he was still puzzled. Looking at the people coming and going beside him, Hall Master Wang finally looked at Li Yuanqing and explained, “Young Master, I don't think it's a bad thing. Although these two children are indeed talented, there are many talented children in this city. There's no need to be obsessed with the two of them. I'll help Young Master find two more children.”

Li Yuanqing smiled and waved his hand. “There's no need. I already have an idea.”

“Then what do you mean, Young Master?”

“What does Yang Tianqi do? What's his character like?”

“He's actually the instructor of the guards. He's considered an official in the City Lord Manor, but he's not famous. He can only be said to be able to obtain a cultivation resource.”

“He doesn't look like he has a good temper.”

“Young Master, you saw it just now. His temper is like this. He always does whatever he wants and is very persistent. Otherwise, he wouldn't still be a small instructor for so many years. Those people who were in the same batch as him have long been promoted to captains. Some of them even went to be deputies for the generals above. However, he's still in this position. You should be able to understand.”

Hall Master Wang knew a lot about this person. After he said so much, Li Yuanqing did not seem to have any intention of giving up. Instead, he was thinking about something with relish.

Hall Master Wang carefully asked, “Young Master, I have something to say. I wonder if it's appropriate.”

“If you have something to say, say it.”

“I thought that Yang Zhi was a little lacking. Although Yang Tianqi has already spent a lot of effort to teach his son to be a talent, this child still can't advance his cultivation and is still so timid after wasting so many resources. He's useless.”

Li Yuanqing looked at Hall Master Wang with interest. Hall Master Wang thought that Li Yuanqing had listened to his suggestion and became more and more enthusiastic.

He glanced in the direction of Yang Tianqi's cave abode behind him and said to Li Yuanqing, “Actually, everyone knows Yang Tianqi's current situation. His ranks won't go up since he has such a temper. It's already not bad that his salary is enough for him to cultivate alone, but he still has to raise such a son. His cultivation level has fallen and his son's cultivation level can't advance. No one can do anything to him.”

Hall Master Wang thought that his words would be able to persuade Li Yuanqing. However, he did not expect Li Yuanqing to suddenly smile and deny his judgment.

“I think this child's talent is very good. It's just that he has gone astray and is temporarily isolated, so he hasn't improved for a long time. If this continues, this child's life will be ruined.”

“Young Master, do you mean that Yang Tianqi's training has instead led his son astray?”

Li Yuanqing did not answer his question. He only found a direction and rushed over.

Hall Master Wang followed in confusion. After crossing most of the mountain, he noticed that Li Yuanqing had followed the little beggar back to the foot of the mountain on the other side.

At the foot of the mountain in the Northern City Region, there was a very dense cave area. There were no restrictions here. These cave abodes were all open. Most of them were simple and covered half with some stones.

After Li Yuanqing arrived, he flew towards a cave. He landed in front of the cave abode and glanced inside.

“Is anyone there?”

Not long after, the little beggar ran out of the cave abode. He looked at Li Yuanqing in surprise, not knowing why Li Yuanqing would chase him to this place.

“Young Master, why are you here?” The little beggar was a little surprised, but it was a pity. He looked at Li Yuanqing and said awkwardly, “Young Master, I'm very sorry. I don't know why you like me either. It's just that I'm not talented to begin with, so I was selected by those adults. Moreover, I don't want to go anywhere else now. Young Master, you should find someone else.”

Li Yuanqing patted his head and said to him, “I'm not here for that matter. Do you think Grandma Wang is feeling very unwell now? Can you let me take a look?”

“Young Master, do you know medicine?” The little beggar looked up happily, but he said carefully, “But those doctors all said that Grandma is too sick. If she wants to be treated, it will cost a lot of spirit stones.”

Li Yuanqing replied, “It's fine. I'm just a dabbler. It won't cost much spirit stones to treat illnesses and save people.”

“I won't especially trouble you, right?”

“No, you can lead the way.”

“Young Master, please come in!”

Although this small cave abode was very simple, the little fellow was very polite. He even bowed very formally and invited Li Yuanqing.

There were a few fluorite stones embedded in the simple cave abode. They shone weakly on an old lady lying on a pile of grass.
