Chapter 994: Buying Some Tea
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At night, the moon shone brightly in the cloudless sky.
In the past, Bi Zhu would enjoy such a night with a snack in hand.
But, tonight, she was out of her depth. She just wanted to know what Gu Changsheng wanted and if she was safe.
She was still young and did not want to bear such a burden.
Someone like Gu Changsheng should not have approached her.
There were so many geniuses in the world. She was just one genius from the royal family.
Bi Zhu couldn’t help but sigh.
“Young lady?” said a voice in her ear.
Bi Zhu jumped in fright. She looked around and realized that there was no one around.
She could not see any aura around.
Was she hallucinating?
“Are you looking for me?” asked the voice again.
She heard it right near her ear.
“Senior Gu?” Bi Zhu asked.
“How old are you?” asked the voice.
“I’m only eighteen years old,” said Bi Zhu.
“Eighteen?” The voice sounded surprised.
“Why do I feel like you are at least a few hundred years old?”
“Senior, are you really Gu Changsheng?” Bi Zhu asked.
“You’re correct,” said the voice.
“Senior, do you really think there is a great danger in the South?” Bi Zhu asked.
She felt that this senior was very elusive.
The other person’s voice was hoarse as though he had not spoken for a long time.
“You don’t know?” asked the voice.
“How could I?” Bi Zhu felt that it was a little strange.
“You don’t know why you were chosen?” asked the voice.
Bi Zhu was stunned.
Why was he asking her that?
Was it related to the curse or the Longevity Clan?
The wind was a little strong that night. It blew Bi Zhu’s hair into a mess.
“Senior, what do you mean?”
“Looks like you really don’t know…”
“Senior, please tell me.”
“You don’t know, and that sword cultivator might not know either. It makes sense. Even Gu Jin didn’t know, after all.”
The words made Bi Zhu feel a little uneasy.
What exactly was going on?
“Do you know about my shadow?”
“The one in that cursed tree?” Bi Zhu asked.
“Yes. Do you know why the tree is in that place?”
“Because you were there when it happened…”
“Yes, but I could have been in another place, and it wouldn’t have mattered. I left behind a manifestation, but all of them disappeared except one. Do you know why?”
“Because of the river?” Bi Zhu frowned and guessed.
She was not sure where the river started and where it ended. It was dark, lifeless, and mysterious.
They didn’t seem to care much about the river.
“Yes, that river…” said the voice.
“Is there something wrong with that river?” Bi Zhu asked.
She had not touched the river when she was there, so everything should be alright.
“That river has some connection with me. I often get nutrients from there. Once I leave, it will be like opening a crack in the river,” said the voice.
“I thought you had it all figured out, but I didn’t expect you guys to be this clueless. It makes sense trouble always finds you.”
“Senior, please don’t scare me. I’m still young, and you’re scaring me too much,” said Bi Zhu.
She hoped the problem would not be worse than what she had faced in the West.
There was always trouble wherever she went.
Although overseas was in turmoil, it was still safer than here.
She could not tell whether she or Jing was a bigger trouble magnet.
“Have you heard of the most ferocious creature in the world?” the voice asked.
“Yes, I have.” Bi Zhu nodded.
Lately, she had felt that her luck was getting better, but it seemed danger still followed her.
She hated her luck.
“Oh?” The voice seemed interested. “Do you know what kind of ferocious creature it is?”
“What could be more dangerous than the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl, and the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl?” Bi Zhu asked.
The voice fell silent.
“You know a lot,” said the voice.
“Is the danger you mentioned related to the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl?” Bi Zhu asked.
“How did you know?” The voice sounded surprised.
She already knew that the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl were in Jiang Hao’s hands.
But she could not say that.
She was concerned that this “danger” seemed to be related to the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl.
She had dodged the danger from the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl only to fall into the trap of the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl.
It was just awful.
“I guessed as much. According to what you said so far, the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl is in that place?” Bi Zhu asked.
“Probably. The source of the river is there, but I don’t know where the exact location is.”
However, there was no need to worry too much. She still had time.
It was said that the Human Emperor had suppressed the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl and placed it in a safe place.
“As long as there are no accidents, it might be okay,” said the voice.
Bi Zhu was speechless.
Unfortunately, several accidents had already happened there.
Seeing that Bi Zhu was silent, the voice also fell silent.
Early the next morning, Jiang Hao returned to the inn.
They stayed in a room with a shared balcony.
Hong Yuye was standing outside. She looked into the distance and seemed to be deep in thought.
As for the Shangguan Clan, there was no problem for the time being.
Although the Blood Pool could not completely suppress the curse, it could still prevent the Shangguan Clan from being affected by the curse directly.
The people of the clan had become stronger, and their power was recovering.
Perhaps in a few years, they might become a new rising power.
When they were strong enough, they could break free from his control.
Of course, at that time, he would be stronger too.
Whether Gu Changsheng appeared or not would not affect him in the slightest.
“Can we enter that place today?” Hong Yuye turned to look at him.
“No.” Jiang Hao shook his head.
According to Xing, everything was delayed.
He just hoped that he would have enough time to prepare.
As far as he knew, they could not enter the island if they were not at the Immortal Ascension Platform.
Naturally, he needed some time to prepare. Otherwise, he would not be able to hold up his part of the deal.
“Senior, do you want to change your clothes?” Jiang Hao suddenly asked.
Hong Yuye was still wearing the red and white dress he had bought for her.
Compared to the ones she was used to; it looked a little ordinary.
It gave off a very different aura.
Hong Yuye suddenly smiled. “Stop thinking about what I am wearing and start thinking about the kind of tea I prefer. What type of tea do you plan to buy?”
“Senior, you must be joking. I already bought the tea leaves that you like. You can drink it anytime,” said Jiang Hao.
“Don’t tell me there are no new types of tea here…” Hong Yuye said.
Jiang Hao didn’t know what to say.
“Let’s go and look at the tea leaves,” Hong Yuye said as she walked out of Jiang Hao’s room.
Jiang Hao checked how many spirit stones he had.
He had around ten thousand.
It was over for him. It was not enough.
