No matter what, Luo Bi had this idea, and Hua Ran naturally wouldn't refuse. He had a mother to take care of and couldn't die; he didn't want to die either, and no one cherishes their own life less than that.

"The third-grade spirit medicine costs five million interstellar coins. I have at most thirty thousand interstellar coins, and with Father's fifty thousand, we only have eighty thousand interstellar coins, which is far from enough."

Luo Hang frowned and calculated, "This house can probably be sold for over two million. Tomorrow, I'll go to the main residence and see if Grandfather and Eldest Brother can help a bit. Hua Ran can also ask friends to contribute."

"Father, if you want to go to the old residence, go ahead, but I don't think it will help. Even if you go, it will be in vain. Our family, the Luo family of Zhihuang Star, only looks good on the surface, but in reality, we have very few assets." Luo Bi smiled, not hopeful about her father's trip to the old residence. She then said seriously, "This house is our family's home; we can't sell it."

Hua Ran gave a sad smile. She knew this girl wasn't a pushover. The house was the Luo family's most valuable asset. If they didn't sell the house, the shortfall in interstellar coins would be even greater. How much could they borrow from relatives and friends?

After all that talk, it still came down to not wanting to buy the spirit medicine. Just now, he almost believed Luo Bi.

Just as Hua Ran was losing hope of buying the spirit medicine, who knew...

"I have one million." Luo Bi dropped a bomb.

Guang Zhuting and her son were stunned, and Luo Hang was clearly surprised as well: "Where did you get so many interstellar coins?"

"I saved them myself." Luo Bi replied.

"Your apothecary only pays five thousand interstellar coins a month. Even if you didn't spend a single coin for ten years, you couldn't save one million." One million was a significant amount for an ordinary family, and Luo Hang had to ask clearly to feel at ease.

"I often go to the mining area, as you should know. I saved a little bit by selling Bi Fei stones." Luo Bi explained half-truthfully. Unless absolutely necessary, she wouldn't reveal that she had awakened her mental power. She found the status of a noble Conduit Master to be a huge hassle, and she didn't want to be one at all.

"Is picking up scraps in the mining area that profitable?" Luo Hang believed her, feeling relieved and proud: "Our Ah Bi has always had good luck."

Luo Bi chuckled. There's no such thing as unexplained good luck. It was just that her awakened mental power could sense the Bi Fei stones in the ore. But she didn't say that. Living without being a talented Conduit Master was fine with her; who would want to be one!

Being a talented Conduit Master is prestigious, but Luo Bi couldn't understand what those talented Conduit Masters were thinking. They didn't wear proper clothes, only sheer or lacy silk, half-revealing, half-concealing, it was ridiculous.

For those seductive clothes, she wouldn't be a talented Conduit Master.

Mainly, the people in that circle were treacherous, and Luo Bi genuinely disliked it. Otherwise, she wouldn't have hidden her awakening.

"Now we have 1.8 million interstellar coins. Tomorrow, we'll try to borrow from relatives and friends. If we can't gather five million interstellar coins, we'll sell the house." Luo Bi considered and said, not knowing if her family could borrow interstellar coins from outside.

"Alright, let's do that." Luo Hang agreed.

The family continued to talk for a while. Hua Ran, unable to hold on, went back to rest. Luo Bi checked the time, went to the courtyard, and called Wu Yue's terminal. Under the night sky, Luo Bi spilled everything about her family's situation, holding nothing back.

"Your grandfather really did a lousy job." Wu Yue said bluntly, then sighed, "I'll lend you ten thousand interstellar coins. I'll transfer it to you shortly."
