Chapter 529: Chapter 226: Second Order Cave Mansion, A Place to Live in_1

“Little Liu, brought someone again!”

The hoarse voice echoed, making the spacious Ice Palace feel rather chilly.

An old woman sitting in a lounge chair opened her eyes and cast a glance at Luo Chen and his two companions.

Xu Xiao Liu shrank his neck and went over to her.

“Elder Shi, these three are friends of my uncle. They want to rent a cave dwelling.”

The old woman shifted her gaze towards them.

Luo Chen bowed his hands in a gesture of respect.

The old woman grunted in response and called out towards the inner part of the palace.

“Ah Lan, bring out the Hun Yuan Device.”

Soon, a sweet reply came from the inside.

“Coming, Granny!”

Then, a young girl ran out holding a large spherical magic tool.

She skillfully put the spherical magic tool on the table.

“Elders, are you interested in renting cave dwellings?”

“We certainly are, they…” Xu Xiao Liu grinned and approached.

However, he was glared down by the girl, “I was asking the elders, not you.”

Xu Xiao Liu retreated with a wry smile, seemingly unaffected by the scolding.

Luo Chen glanced at him, then walked up to the girl.

“Are there any particular considerations for choosing a cave house? How much is the rent?”

The girl, Shi Lan, directed a stream of spirit power into the spherical magic tool.

Immediately, a realistic environment was projected from it.

The scenes varied from simply natural to richly splendorous, a room perched on a cliff overlooking the entire city, and even one hidden behind curtains of falling water forming a natural waterfall.

Each cave dwelling had its own unique features.

“Our cave dwellings are situated on Tianlan Peak at the back.”

“This mountain is a legitimate Third Order Spirit Vein Land! From it, the prosperous Spirit land stretching three thousand miles around Tianlan City was created.”

The sweet introduction was heard.

Luo Chen and the others nodded in understanding.

They had noticed this when they first entered the city.

The density of Spirit Qi inside the city undoubtedly maintained the level of First Order Spirit Vein.

Compared to the courtyard of The Great River District they once tried, it was not much inferior.

And this was just the Spirit Qi density on the city streets.

One could imagine how abundant the Spirit Qi would be at the location of the main vein.

“The Spirit Lands in Tianlan Immortal City and the surrounding Spirit Mountain are mostly First Order Spirit Lands.”

“Only on Tianlan Peak, there are Second Order and even Third Order Spirit Lands!”

“Given that the three elders are in the Foundation Establishment Stage, I recommend renting a Second Order Cave Mansion.”

As she spoke, Shi Lan rotated the Hun Yuan Device, revealing the interiors of several cave houses marked with white light.

This was not a problem.

Luo Chen’s gaze fell on the Hun Yuan Device, filled with surprise.

“Why is it that even though all of these are Second Order Cave houses, the white light displayed on them comes in shades of pale white, pure white, and deep white?”

Shi Lan flashed a sweet smile, “That’s obviously because there are different levels within the Second Order Cave houses!”

“Oh?”

“We categorise every Order of Spirit Land into Ascendant, Medium, and Lower Grades. The higher the grade, the denser the Spirit Qi.”

“On Tianlan Peak, there are Ascendant Grade Cave Houses suitable for Qi Refinement Stage, there are the three different Sub-Grades of Ascendant, Medium, and Lower Grade Second Order Cave Houses suitable for Foundation Establishment Stage, and if you want, we also have Third Order Lower Grade Cave Houses for rent.”

Behind them.

Nangong Jin and Li Yixian looked at each other in surprise.

So there’s even a grading system for Spirit Land Cave houses?

They remain silent in mutual understanding.

Along the journey, they had noticed that Luo Chen was more adept than they were at handling these affairs.

Instead of rashly saying something that could offend others, it was better to let Luo Chen negotiate.

Luo Chen naturally knew what they were thinking, but he didn’t mind.

These were minor matters after all.

“So, how is the price of the cave house rent calculated?”

Shi Lan patiently explained, “From First to Third Order, we price it by hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands, respectively. The rent is calculated monthly, with a discount applied annually. The longer the lease, the cheaper the price.”

It seemed a bit complicated!

Nangong Jin knitted his eyebrows as if he was wrestling with the equations.

Li Yixian was in a similar state, with a completely baffled look on his face.

Only Luo Chen nodded, exuding an aura of understanding.

“If I were to rent a Second Order cave house for one year, what would the respective prices be?”

Shi Lan answer came without any hesitation, “For a Second Order Lower Grade Cave House, the monthly rent is a thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones. If you rent it for a year, it only costs ten thousand. For the Medium Grade Cave House, the monthly rent is two thousand, and twenty thousand for a year. The Ascendant Grade Cave House has a monthly rent of four thousand, and forty-eight thousand for a year.”

“Wait a second!”

Li Yixian couldn’t hold back, “Why does the Lower and Medium Grade Cave houses get a discount for two months’ rent, but the Ascendant Grade Cave house doesn’t have any discount at all?”

The girl blinked her eyes.

Very nonchalantly, she replied, “Because we have plenty of Lower and Medium Grade Cave houses, but only twenty Ascendant Grade ones. They are always in high demand, so we cannot offer discounts.”

Alright then!

With that reasoning, she didn’t know how to protest.

Or rather, she didn’t need to protest. The pricing for the Ice Castle was set this way.

Either accept it, or leave.

“What about for three years?” Luo Chen asked.

Shi Lan replied, “For three years, the base price remains the same. If you want a better discount, you would have to rent at least ten years.”

Ten years!

Li Yixian started to feel dizzy.

If they rented the Ascendant Grade Cave house for ten years, that would cost nearly half a million!

Even if they were to sell off the Li family, they still wouldn’t have that much in Spirit Stones.

Shi Lan looked at the trio, showing a sweet smile, “So, what Grade of Cave house would the elders like to rent?”

Li Yixian hesitated a bit.

The eyes of Nangong Jin, however, were wavering between the Lower and Medium Grade Cave houses.

Suddenly, a voice broke the silence.

“Could you perhaps, take us to see the houses in person first?”

Shi Lan was stunned. An on-site inspection?

From the side, a coughing sound was heard.

“Lan, take them. Show proper respect.”

Shi Lan quickly nodded.

“Gentlemen, please follow me.”
