Becoming a true immortal through my descendents' praying-Chapter 423 - 330 Yang Genshuo’s Rashomon Manor (Part 1)_2

"Sure! Can't wait!"

After hanging up, Yang Genshuo casually checked WeChat and then browsed the news.

"Shimen Daily: A mysterious tycoon has bought the French estate in our city, auction canceled."

He saw that the reporters interviewed several local tycoons who were clueless about why the auction was canceled.

Yang Genshuo chuckled.

"Why cancel? Because I gave them an offer they couldn't refuse."

The construction cost of the estate was around 20 million, similar to external reports, but since the land deed was signed years ago, it came with great authority, not just the 70-year property rights of the current districts. Even if they developed a scenic area, it wouldn't affect Yang's ownership of the mountaintop.

Thus, the land was valuable, and the starting bid was 35 million. Yang Genshuo clinched it with a final offer of 50 million, and the homeowner immediately signed the contract to transfer ownership.

He scrolled through everyone's comments and found the netizens quite amusing.

"Such wealth, must be illicit! Government should investigate!"

"The summit of Jiuhua Mountain belongs to all citizens of Shimen City, why should it belong to him privately?"

"This place is only worth a few million at most, building your own house is much cheaper, the media always exaggerates."

Despite these comments, Yang Genshuo didn't feel offended.

Instead, he chuckled and replied to each comment below:

"Anxious!"

"Anxious?"

"Hehe~ Anxious!"

It just proved that having money really does broaden one's mind!

Furthermore, all of Yang Genshuo's wealth was from taxed, legitimate income. Even the mayor had to address him as the outstanding entrepreneur Mr. Yang.

These sour comments actually made Yang Genshuo feel... somewhat exhilarated.

Without realizing, Yang Genshuo ended up reading many more news articles about the "city's mysterious tycoon."

He scrolled and scrolled until suddenly he gasped.

"Wait! What was I doing just now?"

He looked around his cultivation room and smacked his forehead.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.

"Darn!"

"The perils of modern immortal cultivation!"

"Busy with mobile phones, when do I have time for cultivation? A phone call interrupts halfway through cultivation, then I scroll through news and short videos, and it's time for dinner, barely five minutes after dinner and it's family bonding over the latest viral content..."

"The greatest challenge in immortal cultivation, the mobile distraction."

"Nope, gotta set this thing aside."

The big estate was being prepared for auction, so the previous owner's belongings were taken away, leaving it spotlessly clean. Yang Genshuo went to the living room and placed his mobile on the table.

Then, he sealed off his 'Five Elements Unification Room' and began cultivating 'Mechanical Techniques.'

Under the effect of 'Blessings: Calming Heart' with a 'Comprehension' boost of +30, Yang Genshuo almost instantly grasped the magic techniques and proceeded smoothly.

His eyes closed, his breath gradually steadied. With each inhale and exhale, the spiritual energy from the cultivation room flowed into his body, forming a cycle as dictated by the 'Mechanical Techniques.'

And just like that, he repeated the cycle and... drifted into a transcendental state.

He had entered meditation.

...

The next morning, an uninvited guest arrived at Yang Genshuo's estate, carrying a bunch of equipment.

"Folks, good morning! Brother Zao here again, live streaming for you all. Today we continue exploring the secret tycoon's estate of our city. Smash that like for Brother Zao, and once we hit a thousand viewers, I'll go knock on the door!"

Chi Zao, a famous influencer from Shimen City known for exploiting trending topics for live streams, where the crowds were the hottest.

Using his knack for creating stunts, he had managed to amass a million followers.

Today, the news of the mysterious tycoon buying the estate was trending online, stirring quite the buzz.

He had started the live stream early in the day.

The viewer count in his live stream was rapidly increasing, quickly surpassing a thousand and still climbing.

"Alright! Let's see if your Brother Zao can meet the mysterious tycoon!"

However, after pressing the doorbell for a long time, no one responded.

"That's odd... his car is inside; there should be someone around?"

The live chat laughed at him, while Brother Zao scrambled to entertain and keep up his streaming antics.

But still, no one answered the door.

'Could it be he's really not home?' Chi Zao wondered.

At that moment, two cars arrived from down the mountain, carrying nine people.

Dressed in work attire, they looked like laborers.

Chi Zao's eyes lit up as he approached them.

"Bro! I'm Chi Zao, a local media personality. Are you guys here for work?"

"What are you talking about? Move aside!"

Cheng Bo, impatient, then entered the security code at the gate, admitting himself and his lab team into the estate.

"Hey! Hey, hey~ Brother! Boss! Dad! Take me with you, I can do any work, and I don't want money!"

Chi Zao shouted from behind, but Cheng Bo couldn't care less about him.

Today, he had brought the eight Vajras of his lab to Yang Genshuo's estate.

One PhD and seven masters,

all under 30, still untouched by the cynicism of society, something both Cheng Bo and Yang Genshuo greatly valued.

As they viewed the grand estate, the eight couldn't help but gasp.

Cheng Bo held back, as the lab's leader and Yang Genshuo's close friend, he needed to show some decorum.

Of course, after finding out yesterday, he had gasped quite a few times already.

"Brother Cheng, the mysterious tycoon that's been the talk of our town these days, couldn't it be..."

Female researcher Xiao Nannan gestured towards the estate with a trembling voice.

"Mm."

Cheng Bo looked profoundly mysterious.

Though not his property, it did not stop him from showing off.

"Wow~~~"

Seven people gasped in unison.

And Cheng Bo's assistant, Song Qiao, adjusted his monocle and said calmly:
