Chapter 488 - Treasure Guy

Chapter 488 Treasure guy

There was mist on the periphery of the White Stone Relics, covering the ruins and ancient buildings in it. It was silent and frightening.

Suddenly—

Swish! Swish!

Two white streamers fell straight from the sky. After the light burst dissipated, figures of Su Li and Xuan An appeared.

“Although the periphery of the relics is not very dangerous, you can’t be careless. You must follow me closely.”

Xuan An exhorted, and looked around cautiously. He was not relaxed as he was just now.

Su Li nodded gently and followed Xuan An. She squinted her eyes slightly and looked around. The geology of the relics was completely different from the ordinary soil outside Baishi City. It appeared brownish-purple like it was stained by blood. However, it looked dark as ink from a distance, which somewhat was similar to Black Stone Forest.

However, the fog in the Black Stone Forest made people hard to see. By contrast, the white mist here was much weaker. At least, she could see many tall outlines through the mist at a glance, but it was a pity that Xuan An didn’t dare to go there. She didn’t plan to reveal her strength yet, so she could only give up temporarily.

Xuan An was from an extraordinary family, and he had been outside for many years. He walked slowly and lightly. He took Su Li around the relics to familiarize her with it. It was safe along the way. Although they encountered a few silly evil practitioners, he killed them easily.

A few days later, as Su Li expected, they acquired invalid treasures, but Xuan An was still very happy. His tight heart relaxed a lot. While taking Su Li to continue exploring, he said intermittently the matter of Tianjiao List of Top 10,000.

“Among thousands of practitioners in the cultivation circle, there is always a small group of people who have been blessed by the natural law. They have shown extraordinary potential since they were young, and are called favored talents of the natural law!”

“Tianjiao List of Top 10,000, as the name suggests, is the top 10,000 practitioners in a generation of the favored talents. If practitioners want to be on the list, they must compete through the Tianjiao Battle!”

Speaking of this, Xuan An’s eyes showed a sense of eagerness, “In fact, this Tianjiao Battle is about to start. I am only in my early 500s, and I am still young. The top 10,000 is too far away for me. But it’s okay to enrich my experience.”

“Senior Fellow Apprentice, is 500 years old still young?”

Su Li followed Xuan An to clear the obstacles on the slope when she asked and pretended to be puzzled.

Xuan An rolled his eyes suddenly. When he turned his head and saw Su Li’s face with a hint of childishness, he said angrily,

“500 years is long for mortals, but for practitioners, it is just a moment! The age limit of the Tianjiao List of Top 10,000 is 2,000 years old, and it changes every 500 years. However, because of the disaster caused by the daughter of luck, the previous two Tianjiao Battles were not successfully held. Therefore, many people are over the age and lose the only chance to be on the list.”

Speaking of this, Xuan An looked excited and said, “After 1,500 years, this Tianjiao Battle will be extremely excellent. If I don’t take a look, it will be a pity!”

“After hearing what you said, I also want to go and see it. But unfortunately, after I return to the sect, I don’t know if my master will take me there.”

Su Li’s eyes brightened and she whispered, as if she was attracted by the scene described by Xuan An. She was full of expectation.

Xuan An laughed, “Junior Sister Apprentice, don’t worry. Tianjiao Battle is a grand event in the entire Qingshui Circle. This time I will take you to find some Mushui spiritual jades to bring back. It can be regarded as an amend for mistake. With the help of spiritual jades, you can definitely go to Shengxian Mountain to watch the battle!”

Xuan An said with certainty. Su Li’s eyes brightened. She clapped her hands repeatedly and said, “Thank you for helping me. Senior Fellow Apprentice, you are so kind!”

Xuan An flushed again and smirked happily.

After Black Lotus heard Su Li’s coquettish voice, he almost disgustingly vomited out the soul that he had swallowed two days ago. But when he saw the mirror spirit of Reincarnation Mirror laying on the side, he swallowed the soul nourishment back.

“Lord, the female cultivator accompanying the young lord is very simple, with a bone age of less than 300 years. She is not a threat to the young lord. But her origin is unknown, and it can’t be found out in a short time. Maybe she comes from other large regions or is a disciple of a small sect.”

After Xuan Jingzhou heard this, the wrinkles between his eyebrows smoothed out a little. But he was still a little concerned about the “unknown origin”, so he immediately ordered, “Continue to investigate, but you can slow down. You must pay close attention to the recruitment of practitioners for the Guling Gambling Battle. Time is running out.”

“Yes!”

After his subordinate left, Xuan Jingzhou rubbed his aching glabella. There was something on his shoulders suddenly, but he was not surprised. When he looked back, he saw Su Yue who was kneading his shoulders. And his eyes were full of love.

Su Yue no longer looked like a vixen at this moment. There was a trace of worry on her beautiful face. She asked, “Hubby, is this move…too risky?”

Xuan Jingzhou’s wide palm rested lightly on the back of Su Yue’s hand. He shook his head firmly with steady gaze and said, “The treasure that Su Li had on hand has long been clearly investigated by some schemers. If we don’t even bring back the ‘Sound Acquaintance’, the majesty that Linli Building has worked hard to build will suffer a disastrous decline, not to mention…”

Xuan Jingzhou’s eyes looked gloomy, “Ling Qinglan and Qu Lu are still in their hands. This time, whatever happens, we must succeed!”

Su Yue was not an indecisive person either. She knew the importance of this move. Although she was still extremely worried, she didn’t show it anymore. She just nodded and said,

“Senior fellow apprentice is ready. If the gambling battle fails, he will personally take the action! In that case, Wanjian Sect will be exposed, and the senior fellow apprentice can only lead people to take secret actions, which will involve many parties. The situation will be bad.”

Xuan Jingzhou nodded solemnly. He sighed and said, “I have secretly recruited some practitioners who are good at using poisonous insects, and I hope… we won’t fall into this situation.”

A few days later, an underground ruin in the periphery of relics.

With a muffled sound “bang”, Xuan An crawled out of the cave with frustration. When he saw Su Li’s expectant gaze who was squatting on the side of the cave, he sighed and opened his palm.

“No one had noticed this small underground adytum before. There are also spiritual jades in it, but they are just ordinary spiritual jades, instead of Mushui spiritual jades.”

Su Li saw a few lowest-grade spiritual jades scattered in Xuan An’s palm, and her shining eyes dimmed immediately. Then she reluctantly smiled and said, “Senior Fellow Apprentice, you have worked so hard. If you can’t find it, then forget it.”

At the same time, she was wondering in her heart whether she should leave Xuan An aside and go to the depths of the relics alone to take a look.

Seeing the disappointment in her eyes, Xuan An couldn’t help but feel lost. This was his first time as a senior fellow apprentice, but he couldn’t help much.

If his strength was stronger, maybe he could take her to go inside the relics.

Xuan An who was slack in practice had the thought of working hard in his heart for the first time. But he couldn’t make it at once. It was obviously not realistic to improve his strength now.

He calmed down and thought for a moment. Suddenly, his eyes brightened. He clapped his hands and said, “I know! Let’s go to Tianyake Attic!”

He said cheerfully. Subconsciously, he wanted to take Su Li’s hand and take her away.

Su Li’s eyes flickered, and she walked away without a trace, but she expressed confusion, “Tianyake Attic? Why do we go to Tianyake Attic? Although it sells intelligence there, it isn’t a long time since the relics opened. If the intelligence about Mushui spiritual jade is sold there, it must have been extorted long ago.”

When Xuan An heard this, he immediately forgot the confusion about Su Li’s avoiding and quickly explained, “That’s not the same. We go to the temporary station that Tianyake Attic specially designs for White Stone Relics. If there is no news about Mushui spiritual jade in that place, we don’t have to waste our efforts. And we can go to the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce to buy it!”

“I see. Then, Senior Fellow Apprentice, let’s go quickly!”

A look of hope appeared on Su Li’s face, and then she wondered, “What is the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce? Is it possible that it has something to do with the Huangxing Hall?”

“Yes!”

Xuan An nodded. He stretched out his hand and drew the sword. Then he jumped on sword, looked back and smiled,

“The strength of Huangxing Hall is not strong among the four peak holy sects, but those old Taoist nuns run business very well. Huangxing Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in Qingshui Circle. As long as you can afford it, you can almost buy anything!”

Su Li drew out the sword and showed a look of understanding. Then she immediately bent over and said, “Thank you for answering my question, Senior Fellow Apprentice.”

“It’s fine. It’s a trivial matter. Let’s go to the station and have a look!”

As soon as Xuan An waved his hand, the sword rushed into the sky with his body. Su Li followed closely with a faint smile in her eyes.

This guy was like a treasure, and every sentence could unearth considerable information. He was really her lucky star.

…

Tianyake Attic, the largest intelligence organization in Qingshui Circle.

Originally, Su Li didn’t know who set it up, but after Xuan An’s ostentatious introduction, she finally learned that it was set by a force called “Tianxing Valley” in ancient age.

Although a large number of intelligence dealers on the periphery of Tianyake Attic cooperated with it and it was loosely organized, in fact, it was loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Real master of Tianyake Attic rarely showed up, and the foundation was even more unfathomable. Even if it was not listed in four peak holy sects, it was the most mysterious force among all the cultivation forces in Qingshui Circle.

“Su Li, this Tianyake Attic is not just as simple as this stupid guy said. In the heyday of me, Qingshui Circle became a mess. However, this organization remained unmoved and was feared by various factions. I suspected that at that time, this Tianyake Attic’s true origin could be traced back to the prehistoric age!”

“Black Lotus, why didn’t you tell me about Tianyake Attic before?”

“Well… You didn’t ask me, right?”

Black Lotus was embarrassed. Fortunately, Su Li did not delve into it any more. When she and Xuan An stopped, they saw a busy market which built temporarily. Practitioners moved around. Patches of orderly soil and stone streets and houses looked extremely comfortable.

Su Li looked up and saw the iconic “Tianyake Attic” engraved on the tall stone archway at the gate of market. And under this line of characters, the character “station” was also engraved. As Xuan An said, it was a temporary station.

Xuan An was smiling, but he wiped his sweat in secret and felt distraught. He had never been here, and after a few laps around the relics, he almost lost his way. Fortunately, he was lucky.

“I heard that Tianyake Attic’s stations are very safe. No one is allowed to resort to force. I hope it is true…”

Murmuring in his heart, Xuan An finally plucked up his courage to walk into the stone archway with Su Li.
