Chapter 174: Eagerness
After having escaped from the Yan Family estate, Li Lang kept himself out of trouble by staying at the lodging his companions found while he was away. The next day, they uneventfully departed from the city after purchasing some Mortal-grade materials unique to the province of Vermillion Dragon.
He left most of those errands to his companions while he focused on teaching their new students. There was a lot to go through to give them the basic education he desired of them.
Thankfully, the newly ignited desire of his students in pursuit of cultivation fueled them to pass through these lessons. They were all motivated, having been given hope that they too could cultivate despite their aptitude. Like that, they quietly traversed through the borders between orthodox and demonic cultivators.
They uneventfully made it back to Polarity City, where it seemed to be even more lively than before. As the main auction that took place at the end of the event drew closer, more and more cultivators arrived.
Previously, it was mostly just the wealthy juniors running errands for their elders or newly ascended Foundation Establishment cultivators looking to pick up a few items. Now, many elders had arrived, with more to follow.
“What do you guys want to do?” Long Yi asked. “Should we stay until the end of the event or make our way back to Emberglow first with the kids?”
“If w-we plan to attend the main event, t-then there is no point leaving. We’ll h-have to take our new students with us anyway,”
“No,” Li Lang stated otherwise. “We will be returning to Emberglow first and returning when it is closer to the main event.
“Okay, I’ll go take a look at the auction schedule while you guys do that—Wait, what?”
“No need. I don’t plan to attend any more of them.”
Li Lang’s words had taken both his companions off-guard. They exchanged glances as if to confirm they had heard correctly. Seeing this, Li Lang elaborated.
“We’ve bought enough for now. We’ll need to keep an ample amount of funds for when we set up a place for ourselves. For now, I want to prepare for a certain project I’ve been looking forward to and I need the guidance of Senior Tie Qian to do so.”
