Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1434: Chapter 1435: Searching for the Manor

Lu Yi naturally knew it was Ye Luo, and she wouldn’t refuse him.

”The young master’s room is best cleaned personally by me to ensure everything is perfect,”

Lu Yi said with a gentle smile as she turned her head.

Ye Luo also smiled faintly. In Ye Luo’s heart, he never regarded Lu Yi as merely a songstress. To Ye Luo, whether it was Lu Yi or Nalan Rou, they were akin to Ling Qingya and others back on Earth—just his women, nothing more and nothing less.

”Come on, let’s go and rest. Tomorrow, you’ll go out with me to find a good place and purchase a manor—so we’ll have our own home!”

Upon hearing Ye Luo’s words, Lu Yi’s face distinctly flushed red. It was unclear whether her blush was due to Ye Luo’s mention of resting together or the idea of building their own home.

It was another night of rain and clouds. However, early the next morning, Lu Yi still managed to rise well ahead of time.

By the time Ye Luo awoke, Lu Yi had already prepared breakfast for him.

After finishing breakfast, Ye Luo quickly sought out Yun Liancheng, who was engaged in his morning practice.

”Brother Yun, are you planning to head to the academy today?”

The Royal Academy didn’t mandate daily attendance. As long as one completed the tasks assigned by their mentors, no one would interfere. Furthermore, the academy had a dedicated task bulletin board, encouraging students to take the initiative to search for appropriate assignments for cultivation.

Royal Academy’s cultivation philosophy emphasized traveling across distant lands and honing one’s strength through continuous battles.

Compared to other academies, it was notably more open-minded.

Thus, whether Yun Liancheng decided to go to the academy or not was entirely up to Yun Liancheng.

”Why do you ask, Brother Ye? Do you have something in mind?”

Yun Liancheng responded with a puzzled look at Ye Luo, clearly anticipating that Ye Luo must have some intention if he was asking about this.

As expected, Ye Luo didn’t hesitate: ”I plan to find a good spot, purchase an estate, and establish my own residence.”

”Oh? Could it be that staying at my Cloud Manor doesn’t suit you?”

Yun Liancheng looked slightly confused, as Ye Luo’s sudden talk of buying an estate naturally prompted doubt.

Ye Luo offered a light smile: ”Not at all. I’ve grown quite accustomed to living at Cloud Manor. However, I can’t always stay at your place, can I? Besides, the residence should be located within the city!”

Regarding this, Yun Liancheng didn’t harbor any dissatisfaction. After all, having one’s own home was also a marker of identity. If one lacked a personal residence, they might be perceived as insignificant.

Yun Liancheng understood that if Ye Luo was bringing up the idea, he must indeed wish to secure his own estate. Thus, Yun Liancheng nodded in agreement, saying, ”That makes sense. Very well, I’ll accompany you.”

”By the way, Brother Ye, have you decided through which channel to purchase? Residences in the Imperial Capital generally have three acquisition methods. The first involves estates owned by the administration. These often consist of reclaimed properties from defunct families, and they tend to be incredibly spacious, furnished thoroughly—even the servants are already in place.”

”Of course, the administration also constructs new franchises. Within the capital, the Imperial Family exercises prevailing authority, so even newly built estates are impeccably equipped!”

”The second channel involves properties sold by major noble families. Some nobles seek out prime locations to construct estates for sale, while others liquidate portions of their assets. Though arguably less refined compared to royal properties, these homes are undeniably exquisite.”

”Finally, the third option is private transactions. Occasionally, families facing decline—or other unforeseen circumstances—sell off their estates.”

”So, Brother Ye, have you given any thought to which channel you’ll use?”

Ye Luo pondered briefly but didn’t deliberate much: ”Any channel will do. The important thing is finding a residence I genuinely like. As for the source, it doesn’t matter as long as the procedures are in order.”

Yun Liancheng laughed heartily: ”In that case, it’s settled. Let’s go, Brother Ye—I’ll take you there right now!”

With no hesitation, Yun Liancheng quickly invited Ye Luo to head out together.

Soon, several guards from Cloud Manor, along with Lu Yi, gathered before setting off with Yun Liancheng and Ye Luo.

Initially, Ye Luo intended to personally search for a property himself. But just as they headed out, a Royal Guard unexpectedly arrived at Cloud Manor.

”May I inquire whether His Highness Ye Luo is present?”

The Royal Guard directly posed this query to those at Cloud Manor.

Upon hearing Ye Luo’s name mentioned, people promptly notified Nalan Rou.

What happened next left Nalan Rou utterly astonished.

It turned out the guard was here to deliver a property deed for Luo Shui Manor!

It was a grand manor meticulously crafted and refurbished by the Royal Family’s full efforts.

Moreover, its location wasn’t far from the Imperial Palace!

The Imperial Capital was expansive, yet the closer one was to the palace, the more exponentially valuable the estates became.

It was no exaggeration to say that the manor granted by the Royal Family to Ye Luo was in the most prestigious core area. The neighboring estates all belonged to high-ranking officials of the Great Tang Empire.

Nalan Rou was dumbfounded, fully aware of the tremendous worth of Luo Shui Manor—but had never imagined it would now belong to Ye Luo.

Since Ye Luo had already left with Yun Liancheng, Nalan Rou could only receive the deed for the time being and await Ye Luo’s return to deal with it.

Ye Luo and Yun Liancheng, meanwhile, remained oblivious to the fact that while they were out searching for a manor, the Royal Family had already bestowed upon Ye Luo a royal mansion!

...

”Brother Ye, what do you think of this manor?”

At this moment, Ye Luo and Yun Liancheng were inspecting a projection of an estate, with a middle-aged man standing before them.

”Gentlemen, this manor is truly exceptional—with a prime geographic location, merely a four-hour walk from the core area of the capital. The environment is serene, and if you purchase the estate, I’ll even gift you one hundred servants for you to move in directly. What do you say?”

The middle-aged man was the steward of a noble family. Since Ye Luo wanted to buy property, Yun Liancheng naturally assisted in connecting him. Surprisingly, they encountered a family readily selling their estate.

”So, Brother Ye, what do you think? This place is fairly decent, isn’t it?”

Yun Liancheng asked Ye Luo with a smile.

Ye Luo surveyed the surroundings carefully. He had to admit, this particular estate was truly outstanding.

In the Imperial Capital, such a property could undoubtedly be considered top-tier.

Within the estate were three subtle Spirit Gathering Arrays. One was designated for cultivation, another for alchemy and artifact refining, and the third for the spiritual medicine garden.

Furthermore, the previous owner of the manor appeared to have a strong affinity for cultivating spiritual medicine, as the garden still contained numerous spiritual plants.
