Early morning the next day.
Li Xiaobai strolled through the streets, humming to himself as he made his leisurely way toward the Baihe Family's estate. Yesterday, Nangong Menglu had personally come to deliver money—it was enough to make him chuckle all night. This disciple from the prestigious Heavenly God Academy truly had a robust sense of generosity. She treated him like some peerless master, offering a staggering amount he simply couldn't refuse.
After all, appearing as an Elder of the Heavenly God Academy wasn't cheap. If she'd offered less, she wouldn't have succeeded in hiring him. The price naturally needed to match his elevated status—it was nothing short of astronomical. This gambit was beyond lucrative, with the only condition being that he must take payment first before handling any matters.
