Chapter 425: Dancing in the Minefield

Li Xiaobai was at a loss for words inside; the old man was as off-key as ever.

Spouting nonsense here, isn't the Cultivation World all about the strong being revered? Since when did house and mount matter?

"Hehe, the old beggar doesn't speak without basis. Look at Elder Old Song who, despite his age, still hasn't found a wife and is destined to be lonely. Why? Because he doesn't own any property!"

"Look at those from the Eastern Sea. When you mention them, you think of the Eastern Sea's Vice Leader. Why? Because the Eastern Sea is their property!"

"And then there's Elder Tianji, whose cultivation level isn't much, but whenever someone mentions 'Immortal Spirit Daily's Elder Tianji,' everyone has to show a bit of respect. Why? It's all about property!"

"So, times have changed. Without your own territory, it's embarrassing to even announce where you're from when you're outside. It's a big disadvantage."
