Chapter 43 – The Mansion

Chapter 43 – The MansionLeyvi and Anda returned to the hotel room. By the time they entered the room, Lilian had already woken up, cleaned herself, and changed into a new gardening outfit. She was still ashamed of herself and didn't dare to look at Leyvi.

Leyvi sat on the bed beside Lilian, put his palm on her silver hair, and stroked it gently. "Have you had good sleep?" Leyvi asked.

Lilian nodded. She blushed a bit.

"Alright, we will talk about this later. We are moving to our new house today," Leyvi informed her.

Lilian's ears twitched as she looked at Leyvi. Moving to a new house? Where did the house come from? Are there many plots of land around the house? Can she do some gardening?

Seeing her expression, Leyvi already knew what kind of things she was thinking right now. "No, there's no place to garden over there." Leyvi lied, deliberately messing with her. Girl, you have the Goddess of Fertility Garden already, how many places for gardening do you want?

Leyvi suddenly had a premonition that if her cultivation reached a terrifying level, she might turn the whole world into her garden. Leyvi had a goosebumps. This was some villain stuff, the enemy of the entire world. No, no. He needed to keep her in check and prevent this thing from happening.

Lilian pouted. She wanted to garden around the house too.

"Alright! Let's go!" Leyvi stood up from the bed and went out of the hotel room.

Tal and Tasya were already waiting in the corridor ready to depart at any time.

After checking out of the hotel, they traveled to the east side of the city riding the carriage pulled by Mr. Bison. The housing area for wealthy people was located to the east while the housing area for common people was located to the west of Bara City.

The distance between the city's center and the housing area was quite far by walking, so public transportation was provided especially for the common people. For cultivators that reached the Foundation Building realm or higher, they could just fly.

After 15 minutes of riding the carriage, the group arrived at the location provided by the token. They immediately saw a big 'm' shaped mansion with an elegant-looking door in the middle. When the gate scanned Leyvi's token, it automatically opened itself and allowed the carriage to enter.

The carriage stopped right in front of the elegant-looking door and everyone stepped out and looked around. Leyvi was expecting it to be big but not this big. Lilian excitedly came and held Leyvi's hand while pointing at the two empty courtyards adjacent to the entrance of the mansion.

Leyvi rolled his eyes. Of course the courtyards have to be full of areas where Lilian could garden. Why can't they tile everything so this gardening demoness couldn't run rampant around the house? From his spiritual sense, not just the courtyards, but the area around the mansion and the backyard were also full of space to garden.

Leyvi sighed. He decided to find a personal maid for Lilian tomorrow. The maid has to know Lilian's whereabouts at all times and make sure Lilian sleeps and cultivates properly.

Anda giggled as she sensed Leyvi's troubled thoughts.

"Everyone, come here and insert your spiritual imprint into this token," Leyvi instructed.

One by one, they implanted their spiritual imprint and a smaller token would come out of the original token. Anda, Lilian, Tal, and Tasya now had their personal token and they could go in and out of the mansion at will. Those without the token would be repelled by the formation covering the mansion unless someone opened the gate for them. 

As the owner of the original token, Leyvi could remove the spiritual imprint of anyone from it and disable the function of the smaller token. Leyvi was quite impressed by the formation master who designed this system.

Leyvi summoned Stripey out of the spirit beast bag. He must have been very bored inside the spirit beast bag most of the time. Stripey immediately looked around and inspected the surroundings.

"Mr. Bison, you can roam around the properties as you like. Stripey, this is going to be our house from now on. There are a lot of trees in the backyard, you can play there. If you go outside the properties, don't you dare make any trouble!" Leyvi reminded Mr. Bison and Stripey.

He was not concerned much about Mr. Bison but Stripey's abilities could cause much trouble if he was unrestrained. So far, there hasn't been any formation that could stop or detect Stripey when he's in stealth mode. A thief would have caused chaos everywhere if they had owned Stripey, everyone would have lost their belongings.

"Boss, can I eat those grasses? They looked delicious." Mr. Bison asked permission from Leyvi. The properties were uninhabited for quite a while so the grass has grown long. 

"Umm Boss, how long are we going to stay here?" Stripey also asked.

"Sure, you can become our lawn mower, and eat all the grasses around the property. Anda, how long are we staying here?" Leyvi officially appointed Mr. Bison as the lawn mower of the family and turned to Anda asking the question posed by Stripey. Sёarch* The nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Hmm, there are still many months before the Alchemy Conference. Initially, I planned to search for a special fire for as long as possible before the conference started, but now, since I got Little Fiery early and we suddenly have a house here, we can stay here until 2 months before the conference commenced. I estimated the journey from here to the South Region Alchemy Association's headquarters with the carriage would probably take around a month. We will depart a month earlier in case any delay happens." Anda made a thinking pose as she explained her plan in detail.

Leyvi nodded. He then looked at Stripey.

"Umm Boss! Don't worry, Stripey is a law-abiding citizen so nothing bad will happen!" Stripey saluted to Leyvi and immediately vanished. 

Even Leyvi's powerful spiritual sense couldn't detect Stripey's presence at all. Law-abiding citizen my foot! Who was it that stole a bunch of stuff from the cultivators of the Mountain Dew Sect previously? Leyvi shook his head.

"Alright, let's go in," Leyvi turned around and opened the front door.

Mr. Bison quickly went to the nearest grass and started chomping and eating the grasses. As a demonic beast, he doesn't need to eat grass anymore to get any nutrients, however, he is still a Bison, and like human cultivators, good food is still something to be enjoyed.

The rest of the group followed Leyvi and walked through the main hallway until they reached the mansion's main hall. There was a big chandelier made from crystals in the middle of the ceiling.

Leyvi scanned the whole interior of the mansion. There were 21 bedrooms in the 4-story mansion, 1 master bedroom on the top floor, and 20 other bedrooms separated equally between the floors. 

Each bedroom has its bathroom, toilet, mini kitchen, and most importantly cultivation area.

At the top left and right corner of the main hall, two circular stairs were connected to each floor and there was a round glass elevator in the middle of each stair which also connected to each floor.

There was also a living room on the ground floor, a big kitchen on the first floor, and a big bathroom with a pool tub and laundry room on the second floor.

Leyvi also noticed a big basement area that was equipped with multiple barrier formations. It was the area to practice martial skills or other heavy work.

Leyvi once again was surprised by how massive this mansion was. Who was generous enough to give him a place like this? A mansion like this should cost an extreme amount of money to buy. Leyvi suddenly sweated, wouldn't it be expensive to maintain the operation cost of this mansion too? There were so many arrays and formations installed within the property to make a lot of things function automatically, all of these won't be cheap!

Leyvi quickly went to the control room that was located at the end of the main hall and checked the cost needed for the mansion to function. 

"Holy!" Leyvi was shocked. They would need at least 500 low-grade spirit stones per month to operate the basic functions of the mansion. It would cost more spirit stones if formations were activated for training or increasing the concentration of spiritual energy in the cultivating room.

Anda appeared behind Leyvi and comforted him. "Husband, don't worry. I will start selling my alchemy product soon so all these costs won't be a problem. With Dumbfi...Little Fiery in my possession, Tier 3 alchemy products would be easy to refine now!" Anda declared with confidence. 

Little Fiery inside Anda almost cried. Master, you were about to call me Dumbfire right?

Leyvi instantly cheered up again. He totally forgot about this. Anda was supposed to be their money-making panda!

"All hail Anda! All hail Anda! Bless Goddess Panda!" Leyvi lifted the smiling Anda and spun around like they usually did to celebrate.

Tal and Tasya looked at each other as they heard the sound of cheers coming from the control room. Masters are flirting again. Both of them thought.
