There are a few top grade Spirit Stones, but exchanging them for Spiritual Cranes would be extravagant.
Moreover, the lack of Spirit Stones is clearly just a surface problem.
The deeper issue is that the Luo Tian Sect currently lacks a stable financial source!
In times of chaos, everyone seeks to survive, and few forces can continue to thrive financially like the Shen Fu Sect.
In response, after some thought, Luo Chen provided a solution.
"For now, we'll temporarily accept the Spiritual Cranes from the White Crane Gate, and the Spirit Stones... consider them owed!"
"Let's endure this period. The Luo Tian Sect may be small in numbers, but there's an advantage in that; at least the unity among people is enough. Everyone tighten their belts, and gradually improve afterwards."
Li Yingzhang didn't expect Luo Chen's method to be like this.
But since the other party said so, he accepted it. At worst, when owing money is recorded, one just needs to have a thicker skin.
