Chapter 434 It’s really troublesome to buy a house

After returning to the village, Lu Nan stayed for only one night and then left.

He estimated that the village would be very busy and troublesome for the next two or three days.

So he decided to leave first.

After leaving Notting City, Lu Nan didn't know where to go for a while.

Long-term practice is undoubtedly boring.

But when I’m not practicing, I basically have no place to live except going back to the village or the academy.

Staying in a hotel all the time is a waste of money.

As for buying a house, I don’t have the money.

The housing prices in big cities are such that a single-family villa can easily cost several million or even tens of millions.

Especially in special big cities like Wuhun City and Tiandou City, housing prices are even more expensive.

Of course, ordinary houses are not that expensive.

But Lu Nan didn't want to live in a too simple house. Living in a house in the village was fine, but living in a small house in a big city would be a loss of enjoyment.

"Qian Renxue said that she is very rich and will not treat me badly after the fake engagement with her. I should be able to get some money from her and buy a house. That should be fine, right?"

Thinking back to what Qian Renxue said at the beginning, Lu Nan was somewhat tempted. With her status and position, if he asked for several million or even tens of millions, he would definitely be able to come up with it easily.

However, he felt a little embarrassed to ask for money as soon as they met.

He doesn't care about strangers, but he is not so thick-skinned when it comes to acquaintances.

"I feel cheated. She said she was super rich, but she hasn't offered to pay me yet."

After thinking about it, Lu Nan felt that Qian Renxue was just saying it casually at the beginning. After the meeting, she was not enthusiastic at all when it came to paying.

"Forget it, let's go check out the Empire or Spirit Hall to see if there are any criminals with bounties on them and go and kill a few of them."

No matter which world it is, there will always be criminals who have not been arrested, and at this time a bounty will be issued.

It exists in the pirate world and on Earth in the previous life, so Lu Nan guessed that it exists in this world as well.

So he went to the local Wuhun Hall to take a look.

He felt that among those for whom the empire offered bounties, a large portion must be ordinary criminals, so the bounty should not be high.

Since the Spirit Hall is an organization of soul masters, the criminals on which the bounty is offered should all be soul masters.

After gaining the status of a Soul Saint, one would always have some privileges in some branches of the Spirit Hall. At least, one would not have to queue up when consulting something.

After some inquiries, the staff of the Spirit Hall told him that there were indeed many criminal soul masters who had not been arrested and had rewards offered for their crimes.

However, you don't need to catch him, as long as you provide clues, you can get part of the reward.

The staff then took him to the room full of bounty posters and let him see for himself.

"There are quite a few."

Lu Nan looked at the wall covered with bounty notices and was somewhat surprised. With the efficiency of the Spirit Hall, there were still so many soul masters that had not been caught.

"This is... I think I've seen this guy in the City of Slaughter."

“This one too, and this one, too.”

Soon, he discovered that some of the wanted criminals were people he had seen in the City of Slaughter.

"Will the Spirit Hall not revoke the bounty orders for these criminals who entered the Slaughter City?" "Wait, isn't this Teacher Zhao Wuji?"

Suddenly, Lu Nan saw a bounty warrant for Zhao Wuji in the lower left corner of the wall in front of him.

And it looks like it’s been there for quite a long time, with the time written on it being more than ten years ago, and it also says that Zhao Wuji’s strength is still that of a Soul Emperor.

"It's been so many years! Zhao Wuji was already a level 76 Soul Saint a few years ago."

Lu Nan couldn't help but complain, but it seemed that Ning Rongrong had said before that the matter between Zhao Wuji and the Spirit Hall ended up in nothing.

In other words, Spirit Hall has no intention of capturing him, so it does not renew the bounty order?

This bounty order has not been updated for a long time, so the bounty amount for Zhao Wuji is still the same as when he was Soul Emperor, which is only 2.13 million gold soul coins.

Although two million is a lot, it is indeed enough for a Soul Emperor.

But now that Zhao Wuji is a Soul Saint, he is obviously at a disadvantage. The reward should at least be multiplied several times.

"However, no matter what, at least compared to other wanted criminals, Zhao Wuji's location is already known. There is basically no information about the others except that they are in the Slaughter City."

So Lu Nan took off the bounty orders for Zhao Wuji and a few others that looked familiar to him, took a quick look at the bounties for Soul Kings and above, and then left the Spirit Hall.

After leaving the Spirit Hall, he hesitated whether to capture Zhao Wuji.

The Spirit Hall neither caught any criminals nor updated the bounty, which made him hesitant.

The most important thing is that a bounty of only two million is too little. The bounties of other Soul Saints are all over eight million, and some even exceed twenty million!
Fighting a Soul Sage-level fight but taking a Soul Emperor-level bounty, it's a loss no matter how you look at it.

If the reward was more than five million, Lu Nan would definitely do it.

As long as two orders of five million come in, you can buy a nice little villa in Tiandou City.

If you want to buy a big villa in a good location, you have to do more business.

"However, it is still too troublesome to find those criminals who are Soul King and above that we just saw in this huge continent."

Lu Nan thought it was too difficult to find someone in such a huge crowd of people.

"Slaughter City... Speaking of it, most of the criminals in Slaughter City were forced into this place because they had no other options. The Spirit Hall also tacitly accepted this behavior. If I go in and capture someone, can I get the bounty?"

After all, the City of Slaughter is, in a sense, the prison of the Spirit Hall.

In other words, if he went to the prison of the Spirit Hall to capture someone and then turned around and sent him back to the Spirit Hall, people wouldn't think he was causing trouble, right?
However, if you want to catch a wanted criminal, the easiest way is to go to the City of Slaughter. You can catch a lot of them, all of whom have committed crimes.

Finally, Lu Nan decided to give it a try. If he couldn’t get the money, he would go and catch Zhao Wuji!
Before arresting him, ask the manager of the Spirit Hall indirectly whether he can raise the price for Zhao Wuji.

So Lu Nan set out again on the journey to the City of Slaughter.

During this journey, every time he passed a city, he would go to the black market to inquire whether there were any fugitive criminals near the city.

Not to mention, he actually captured several Soul King-level bounty criminals along the way, with a total value of about three to four million.

This is a soul master. If he were an ordinary person, he would not be able to earn three million gold soul coins in several lifetimes.

Of course, the main job of a soul master is not to capture criminals.

Instead, they join the empire or a large sect. Even if that person is a combat soul master who is mainly responsible for fighting and does nothing when there is no war, they can still get a lot of money every month.

However, Lu Nan has not joined any faction yet, so he can only choose to arrest criminals, which is the fastest way to make money.

Anyway, once he saves enough money to buy a house, he won’t have to go through the trouble of running around looking for someone.
