Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion

Chapter 231 – Immortals don’t last three generations

Liu Yanping immediately rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "Senior Brother Meng, stop joking."

"You have Changsheng call me uncle, but you have him call you sister. Shouldn't you also call me uncle?" Meng Fan said with a straight face.

Of course, to Liu Yanping, this was clearly a case of fake seriousness.

"What does it matter? We each have our own titles. Besides, even if I were willing to call you uncle, my grandfather probably wouldn't be too happy about suddenly having such a big son!" Liu Yanping found a perfect angle to counterattack.

One had to admit, her angle was indeed quite good!

Meng Fan stopped teasing Liu Yanping and changed the topic.

"I came to find you because I need your help with something," Meng Fan said seriously to Liu Yanping.

"What do you need help with?" Liu Yanping immediately asked.

Usually, it was her asking Meng Fan for help. It was rare for Meng Fan to ask her for a favor.

The only time was when she introduced Senior Sister Ye Qingyu to Meng Fan.

It was worth mentioning that later, Senior Sister Ye had expressed her "gratitude" to her more than once.

"I'm short on Spirit Stones, and I want to..."

Meng Fan originally wanted to ask Liu Yanping to introduce him to some people for a business deal, but Liu Yanping thought Meng Fan was asking to borrow Spirit Stones.

"How much do you need?" Liu Yanping interrupted Meng Fan with a grand gesture.

Her demeanor was extremely domineering, truly living up to her reputation as the young rich woman of Shu Mountain's younger generation.

Even Meng Fan hadn't expected such a reaction from Liu Yanping. His intention wasn't to borrow Spirit Stones.

Unexpectedly, this young lady was so generous. Unable to refuse her kindness, Meng Fan straightforwardly said, "Ten thousand Spirit Stones."

Liu Yanping was stunned, standing there like a wooden chicken, staring blankly at Meng Fan.

"Ten thousand Spirit Stones? Are you robbing me?"

This was a huge sum, even Liu Yanping was a bit reluctant.

It wasn't that she couldn't afford it, she just didn't want to!

If she tried to scrape it together, she could indeed come up with ten thousand Spirit Stones.

But to lend such a large amount to Meng Fan without any guarantee, she was really hesitant and a bit scared!

What if Meng Fan didn't return it?

Well, even if she reluctantly believed Meng Fan wasn't that kind of person!

But what if he couldn't repay it?

This was ten thousand Spirit Stones!

Sure, her friendship with Meng Fan was priceless. No, it was worth more than gold!

But ten thousand Spirit Stones were worth countless pieces of gold, too many to count.

"Junior Sister Liu, you misunderstood. I didn't come to borrow Spirit Stones," Meng Fan explained his original plan.

"I do need Spirit Stones, but not by borrowing from you.

I came to ask if you could introduce me to some disciples who have Spirit Stones. I can instruct them in sword techniques and charge Spirit Stones as a fee.

You know my sword skills. Charging them some Spirit Stones for guidance is definitely worth it!"

Meng Fan spoke earnestly, his tone extremely calm.

If anyone else had said this, Liu Yanping would have laughed at them for being delusional. Who do you think you are?

But Meng Fan...

Such a good deal?

Getting Meng Fan's guidance in sword techniques was definitely a stroke of luck!

"No problem. I know plenty of rich but lousy swordsmen. If you're willing to guide them, I guarantee they'll obediently hand over the Spirit Stones!" Liu Yanping patted her chest confidently.

Meng Fan smiled. He had guessed right.

In the circle of a rich woman, everyone around her was bound to be wealthy!

"So, how do you think we should charge for the Spirit Stones?" Meng Fan humbly asked for advice.

After all, Liu Yanping was clearly more knowledgeable about these people's financial capabilities.

"A thousand Spirit Stones per person!" Liu Yanping said confidently, asking for a high price.

Uh...

Meng Fan cautiously asked, "Isn't that a bit expensive?"

"Expensive? You're worth that price!" Liu Yanping had more confidence in Meng Fan than he did himself.

Meng Fan actually thought he was worth that price too, but since it was his first time doing this business, he wondered if he should offer a discount?

In the end, his vision was too narrow!

He had worked tirelessly for so long to earn just a few thousand Spirit Stones. It was hard to imagine someone would pay a thousand Spirit Stones just to improve their sword skills!

Seeing Meng Fan's expression, Liu Yanping thought for a moment and then said, "Senior Brother Meng, how about this: for disciples who haven't mastered Sword Intent, you guide them to master it and charge 500 Spirit Stones.

For those who haven't mastered Sword Momentum, you guide them to master it and charge 1,000 Spirit Stones.

As for those who haven't even mastered Sword Qi, it's too demeaning, we won't take them!"

Meng Fan nodded, "That works."

This young lady, Liu Yanping, had quite a business mind. This idea was indeed good.

"I'll introduce someone to you first so you can get some practice and familiarize yourself with the process," Liu Yanping said efficiently, ready to make the introduction.

"Who?" Meng Fan asked curiously.

This speed was impressive; it seemed he had found the right person.

"Isn't there someone right here? Yang Shishi! Don't be fooled by her quiet demeanor; she seems easy to bully.

But anyone who dares to bully her is in for bad luck!

Because her grandfather is Elder Yang from the Enforcement Hall.

As for Spirit Stones, Yang Shishi isn't lacking.

Although she's not as rich as I am, she doesn't care about 500 or 1,000 Spirit Stones!"

Hearing Liu Yanping's words, Meng Fan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Why did everyone he knew seem to be the third generation of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect!

No wonder there's a saying in the Cultivation World: "Immortals don't last three generations."

Looking at the mediocre third generation like Liu Yanping and Yang Shishi, it was clear why.

***

Moments later, Liu Yanping brought Yang Shishi and Shu Changsheng back.

Yang Shishi had evidently heard Meng Fan's idea from Liu Yanping. She shyly said to Meng Fan, "Senior Brother Meng, I have a sword technique called 'Flying Rain Sword Technique,' but I've never been able to cultivate it to the Sword Momentum level. I'm willing to spend a thousand Spirit Stones for your guidance!"

This young lady was always shy in front of Meng Fan.

Meng Fan didn't mind. Many women couldn't be themselves in front of their idols, and he understood.

Blame it on being too handsome and excellent!

"Flying Rain Sword Technique, please demonstrate it first, Junior Sister Yang." Although Meng Fan had encountered most of Shu Mountain's sword techniques, there were always some he hadn't seen.

Like the Flying Rain Sword Technique Yang Shishi mentioned, he had no impression of it.

Next, Yang Shishi began practicing her sword technique in front of Meng Fan.

After watching it once, Meng Fan simulated it in his mind and showed a faint smile.

He extended his index finger and pointed lightly forward.

A Sword Momentum appeared in the direction Meng Fan pointed, and in mid-air, raindrops seemed to faintly fall.

Meng Fan was too strong, his Sword Dao foundation was terrifying, and with the supreme talent of Sword Dao Transcendence, he could fully comprehend such a level of sword technique just by watching it once.

Not only Sword Momentum, but if he wanted, he could even cut out a Sword Soul!
