"My name is Du Fan. We want to buy the small building in the middle of the lake in Lingxian Alley in the south of the city, so we would like to ask City Lord Tang for a favor." Du Fan smiled, fanning himself gently with the fan in his hand, and his smiling eyes fell on Tang Zhiwu.
After hearing this, City Lord Tang did not yell at him directly. Instead, he glanced at him and said in a calm voice, "Your Excellency has a good eye. You immediately took a fancy to the lakeside cottage in Lingxian Lane. However, since you know the place, you should also know that it is not for sale."
"I know, and I also know that the deed to the lakeside cottage is in the hands of City Lord Tang. That's why we came to find City Lord Tang." Du Fan said with a smile.
Hearing this, City Lord Tang glanced at Du Fan, then took a sip of ginseng tea slowly, and said, "Since you know this, then why do you think I will sell the lakeside cottage to you? You know, there are many families in this city that want the lakeside cottage but cannot buy it."
Du Fan smiled, looked at City Lord Tang, and said, "I heard that City Lord Tang had suffered a serious internal injury and has never recovered? His strength has also been stagnant?"
Tang Zhiwu frowned, his face darkened: "What do you mean!"
"I have a seventh-level inner elixir here that can cure your internal injuries. Moreover, it may even make you stronger. I wonder if City Lord Tang wants it?" Du Fan said, looking leisurely at Tang Zhiwu, whose face changed slightly.
"Even the Lingxiao Immortal Sect regards the seventh-level inner elixir as a treasure, how could you have it? Who are you?"
Tang Zhiwu narrowed his eyes and stared at Du Fan, secretly shocked. His internal injuries had not healed for many years, and his strength had been stagnant as he said. The four city lords of Lingxian City compete every five years. This year is the fifth year, and there are only about three months left. He kept the lakeside cottage to exchange for spiritual medicine from Lingxiao Xianzong, but he didn't expect...
Du Fan stood up and walked towards the desk step by step, saying: "City Lord Tang, who we are and how we have the seventh-level inner elixir in our hands should not be the most important thing. The most important thing is that City Lord Tang needs the seventh-level inner elixir, right?"
Hearing this, Tang Zhiwu also stood up. He looked at Du Fan in front of him and asked, "You took a seventh-level inner elixir just to exchange for the lakeside cottage?"
Although the lakeside cottage in Lingxian Lane is in an excellent location and is priceless, it is still far inferior to the seventh-grade inner elixir. He originally planned to exchange the lakeside cottage with the Immortal Sect for the seventh-grade elixir, and the lakeside cottage could only be regarded as a accessory. Now they directly said that they would exchange a seventh-grade inner elixir for the lakeside cottage, which really made him a little suspicious.
"Haha, there's one more thing." Du Fan gently waved the fan in his hand and said, "We need to settle down in Lingxian City, and we need the city lord to take care of us in the future. Well, that's it."
Hearing this, City Lord Tang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it was a big deal. If it was just as they said, it would be easy. So, he glanced at the two of them and asked again, "Where are the pills?"
Du Fan smiled, put away the fan in his hand, took out a bottle from his sleeve and handed it forward: "Seventh-grade top-grade inner elixir, even Lingxiao Xianzong doesn't have such a good thing."
