Chapter 215 Transaction (2)
Chapter 215 Transaction (2)
The Holy Son stared intently at Gu Yuchuan, his speech quickening considerably: "I've already said so much, I wonder what the Demon King's consideration is. In any case, there must be an answer."
Gu Yuchuan took out a jade slip directly from his storage bag: "I agree. This is what you wanted. However, Holy Son, remember one thing: this can only be used by you."
The Holy Son was also a gentleman. He raised his hand, holding the jade token, and said, "Today, I swear here that I will not reveal any information about the Canglan Realm obtained in this transaction to anyone. If it is leaked, my path to immortality will be forever severed."
After he finished speaking, Heaven implicitly acknowledged the oath. Their fortunes were both strong, and their deal was enough to attract Heaven's attention.
Thus, their business was concluded, and the Holy Son had no further intention of speaking: "Demon King, please do as you please. In three days, it will be the day I take over the throne. I am a bit busy, so I will not entertain you here."
Gu Yuchuan also stood up: "Then I won't trouble you, Holy Son. I can't wander around in Longhu Mountain. It wouldn't be good if I ended up in a place that's inconvenient for me to enter. So I'll wait in Longhu City for the ceremony in three days."
This is a good thing, after all, he's all alone here, and others have to take care of him, which makes him uncomfortable. It's better to go back to Dragon Tiger City; he's planning to go find that little sparrow.
The Holy Son nodded: "Alright, in that case, I'll have True Man Beiji escort the Demon King back. We haven't touched the spiritual fruits on the table, so you can take them with you."
Gu Yuchuan was waiting for these words. There were six spiritual fruits on the table, each of which was about as precious as the Thunder Serpent Fruit. It could be said that this table of things could buy two magic treasures. He immediately waved his hand and put all of these things back into his storage bag.
Not long after, Kitajimaru arrived again. She looked somewhat travel-worn, clearly having arrived quickly.
"Fellow Daoist, have you finished your conversation with our Holy Son and are you about to descend the mountain?"
As they walked, they chatted: "That's right, the Holy Son invited me today to catch up. It's a busy time for you at Longhu Mountain right now, and it's really not appropriate for an outsider like me to stay here for too long. I might as well go down the mountain and wait. I'll feel more at ease in the city."
Master Beiji agreed, nodding in agreement: "What you said is true. Everyone in Longhu Mountain is indeed busy preparing for the ceremony, so the hospitality may be lacking. It will be more convenient for you to stay in the city. By the way, I have already spoken to the city lord about the matter. It was all a misunderstanding. Don't take it to heart. He won't bother you again."
Gu Yuchuan wanted to hear that, as long as he was sure he wouldn't be in trouble, that was enough. He really hated trouble.
After leaving Longhu Mountain, Master Beiji stopped and said, "Demon King, I won't see you off any further. Take this waist token. When you get to the city, show it and someone will take care of you. Don't worry, they will definitely arrange the best accommodations for you."
Hearing that he wouldn't see him off, Gu Yuchuan was happy. Walking with a cultivator in the late Golden Core stage put him under a lot of pressure, since he couldn't beat the other person.
He nodded and clasped his hands in thanks to Master Beiji: "Thank you for your hospitality, Master. The rest of the journey is not far, I can go by myself. Please take care, Master."
After they finished speaking, the two parted ways. Gu Yuchuan walked a little slower, even admiring the surrounding scenery.
The road was indeed not far; he arrived at his destination in just an hour at a leisurely pace. This time, as soon as he showed his face, before he even entered the city, he was recognized by the soldiers guarding the city, and soldiers immediately ran over to fawn over him.
"Demon King, come quickly! We've all been notified and we must treat you well."
Gu Yuchuan originally wanted to keep a low profile, but now he couldn't. He could only wave his hand and say, "Alright, I'll go in by myself. You all just stay at your posts and don't worry about me."
He quickly took a few steps and disappeared from their sight. He first went to the Immortal Bureau in the south of the city to register, which was also the place that Master Beiji had told him to receive him.
Sure enough, this Shangxianju is a property owned by Longhu Mountain, and it is indeed large in scale. However, it is not open for business. This place is just for accommodating guests like them. The manager immediately arranged a superior room for Gu Yuchuan. After he went in, he found that it was better than the room he stayed at Zuixianju, and it was also much quieter.
He rested on the bed for a while, and then it got dark. He concealed himself and went out. Deep inside the Immortal Bureau, a man opened his eyes, obviously having discovered Gu Yuchuan's disappearance. However, he closed his eyes again, as if nothing had happened.
Gu Yuchuan slowly arrived at Zuixianju and came to the side of his room. If he remembered correctly, the little demon disappeared from here. He was fine at the time and felt it very clearly. It was right here.
However, after scanning the area with his magic power many times, he found nothing. Sure enough, the little demon's ability to escape the pursuit was largely due to the secrecy of this secret realm. But he was different; he understood the cause from the effect, knowing that there was a secret realm here. So, by searching slowly, he would eventually find the location of the secret realm.
He enveloped the area with his magic power. He could sense something resisting his magic power; this was probably the gateway to the secret realm. He increased the speed of his magic power flow and finally found the place. He struck it with his hand, and a blue vortex appeared in front of him.
He felt a bone-chilling cold in the vortex, so it seemed that this secret realm was of the ice element. However, he still needed to think about whether to go in or not, as who knew if there were any dangers inside.
At this moment, a ripple appeared on the surface of the vortex, and a young girl emerged. She looked charming and lovely, with a cultivation level of the first stage of Foundation Establishment. Judging from her aura, she was the little demon who stole things back then; unexpectedly, her cultivation had even advanced.
"Strange, I clearly didn't activate this secret realm, so how come the portal is open? Luckily no one went in, or they would have died instantly."
She was chanting something when she suddenly stopped, because Gu Yuchuan's magic had already imprisoned her.
"Little bird, what a bold thing you are!"
The bird was so frightened that it kept backing away, saying, "Who are you! I haven't done anything to offend you."
Gu Yuchuan didn't make a move directly. He still wanted to learn about the secret realm, so his tone was much calmer: "The day you stole things, you disappeared next to my room, causing me to fight the city lord. Tell me, was that your fault or mine?"
