“You mean… the owner of that shop is out of the city right now?!” There was no light here, and even the life presence was very weak.
In fact, the life presence was so weak that one could smell death.
Death-like silence and coldness filled this place as if it were a mansion in Hell!
As that deep voice, which sounded like it was coming from a corpse that was crawling out of a tomb, resonated in the stone hall, pale firelights suddenly lit up one by one.
When the pale firelights lit up, instead of giving some warmth to the stone hall, they instead added to the gloomy chill.
In the stone hall stood two rows of black-cloaked cultivators on the sides, and these two rows of people stretched all the way to the gate of the hall!
Judging from the presence emitting off of these cultivators, one could tell that they all had extremely high strength, and the weakest person’s cultivation stage was no lower than the True Lake Realm!
The black-robed man sitting in the center of the stone hall had a more horrifying presence, and he seemed to be engulfed in an ominous darkness which no one would want to touch, not even a little bit!
Under the dim firelight, people could see that a middle-aged man stood in the hall, and he said, “It’s true!”
A chilly wind blew into the hall, dimming the pale firelights, and the deathly sensation intensified.
In Half City, the Heaven-Defying Online Games Guild seemed to have gained its footing on the surface after it took out a Divine Ocean Realm cultivator. After nearly 100 people witnessed the incident, people had to believe that it was true after investigating the facts even though a lot of them didn’t believe it at first.
However, the words about the wonders in the shop circulated in the city, and many forces began to create schemes.
Driven by greed, great strength couldn’t stop people from coveting what they wanted. After all, many powerful figures in Half City were killed by schemes and conspiracies.
Even the most powerful figures had their weaknesses. If the weaknesses were exploited, they would die no matter how strong they were.
For the forces who had deep roots in the city, it wasn’t difficult to gain information.
After these days of investigation, they found that the main shop seemed to be in an extremely distant place, which meant that the great force behind the shop wouldn’t be able to reach Half City in a short time.
Therefore, they could rule out this threat.
Secondly, even though this shop could instantly destroy Qin Honglin, who was at the Divine Ocean Realm, it was done inside the shop.
Even outside the shop, despite his great strength, the shop owner had taken a long time to kill a Blood Devil which had just come out of its prison and was thus quite weak.
When Fang Qi killed Li Huangquan, he didn’t show a strength great enough to kill someone at the Divine Ocean Realm.
In other words, the shop owner was strong but not impossible to deal with.
Then, they could capture Fang Qi in secret and get the information about the shop from him! It was a well-thought plan!
“Where is he?”
“Black Dragon City! I heard that the Netherworld Underground Palace excels in soul-searching techniques. If you have information, my master hopes…”
“My Netherworld Underground Palace will take all those spiritual artifacts!” The gloomy wind howled in the stone hall, and all the light went out instantly! It sounded as if hundreds of ghosts were walking in the darkness and crying out in fear.
…
– In Black Dragon City –
This city was less populated than Jiuhua since there were no ordinary people living here.
There were only cultivators residing in this city.
“Forgive me, I love freedom and can’t bear restraint…” Mr. Fang sang the song with his hands in his pockets while he searched for the Spatial Spiritual Rock in Black Dragon City in a great mood.
The passing cultivators all looked back and stared at him at a loss for words.
This city looked better managed than Half City; at least there were no spiritual boats parking in the air above the city.
Maybe I should get a ride with a demon beast.
Since every big city forbad flying in the city, and the rules in this place were stricter than in Half City, Fang Qi hired a beast carriage. “Go all the way to the west! Straight to the center of the city.”
The driver was an ordinary cultivator wearing grey clothes. Therefore, Fang Qi asked him about the general information of Black Dragon City.
About half an hour later, the driver said, “Daoist Brother, the Castellan Estate is before us!”
Fang Qi looked up and saw a huge mansion with several luxurious carriages parked in front of the gate. The most eye-catching thing was a pure white lion that looked quite magnificent. Fang Qi wondered who its master was.
Castellan Estate?
Fang Qi looked at the big mansion with high walls sulkily.
You make things difficult for me even for the first item! That’s not nice!
I’m an educated and cultured man, and you want me to steal a treasure from the Castellan Estate?!
Fang Qi looked at the walls of the estate and calculated silently.
Which wall should I scale? Are there any defensive arrays? Are there dogs in the house?”
“Daoist Brother!” the cultivators said, “If you don’t need me anymore, I’ll go now!”
“Please!” Fang Qi waved his hand.
When the carriage was gone, Fang Qi walked closer to the Castellan Estate. The gate was closed for the night, and he didn’t see any guards, which helped Mr. Fang a lot.
However, when he walked forward, the snow-white lion suddenly roared and bared teeth at him; it looked so ferocious, as if it would pounce on him at any moment!
There are no dogs inside, but there’s a lion outside?!
Fang Qi frowned and found the situation quite troublesome.
Roar! Roar! While he was thinking, the snow-white lion’s roars became even louder.
Fang Qi picked up a brick from the ground and walked toward the lion in frustration.
“I will knock you out, you hear me!”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
“You dare to dodge?!”
The snow-white lion fell to the ground, and Fang Qi entered the estate by scaling the wall.
At this moment, a group of people walked toward the gate from the inside. The gate opened, and a dignified-looking, middle-aged man with white hair and a beard cupped his hands. “I’m honored by the visit from the Heavenly Fairy of the Nanhua Faction. But… why are you leaving so soon?”
The middle-aged man asked, “Do you have any complaints about my hospitality?”
A woman in white walked out of the gate followed by several people wearing celestial-like white clothes. “Castellan Huangpu, I have an important bit of business to tend to, so I can’t trouble you any longer. Little White!”
She beckoned.
Since it was a short visit, they had left their carriages and mounts outside the gate. She looked around and called, “Little…”
“!!??”
The snow-white lion lay on the ground, and beside it was a brick.
“What’s going on?! I just climbed in, and then it shows that the target is out of the gate?”
All the people watched while a figure jumped down from the wall; they gaped at this sight, and their minds went blank!
