Chapter 737 - 737 The Nine-story Demonic Tower
737 The Nine-story Demonic Tower
“You’re so lucky. You don’t need to look for a top talent like Wushuang Ghost in Huangsha Town. He brought him to you by himself instead and you even subdued such a strong person by arm wrestling. You’re blessed indeed.”
Jin Xiangyu couldn’t help but tease Wushuang Ghost when she saw that he had fallen into a carefree state.
“Haha! It’s all thanks to the lady boss.” Li Xiang chuckled.
Then, the two of them started to chat.
Li Xiang got some strange information about the Golden Desert from her.
“It’s said that there’s a secret realm in the Golden Desert. Whenever a sand tornado blows in the desert, people with great luck can enter the secret realm. It’s said that the secret realm is extremely mysterious, and there are many incredible things inside. The people who entered kept their mouths shut about the situation inside. I only know that it is very mysterious and dangerous inside, but there are also great opportunities. If one managed to escape from the great disaster and come out alive, one will receive a great fortune. I only know that it’s called the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm.”
As they were chatting, Jin Xiangyu suddenly brought up this matter.
“The Devil Kingdom Secret Realm? The great danger comes great fortune.” Li Xiang couldn’t help but reveal a trace of surprise, but he also remembered this secret realm. Such a place was often mysterious and had special magical powers. Even the rules inside would be different.
A secret realm meant an unprecedented great fortune, especially for those that had not been fully developed.
Wushuang Ghost suddenly woke up and said, “It’s said that the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm is cursed, and you can’t go there easily. If one is not careful, one will die even if one comes out alive. I’ve seen a brother die in front of me, and I don’t even know how he died. He was the one who came out from the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm.”
In the past, Wushuang Ghost knew many people in Huanghsa Town. They hunted fierce beasts, chatted and drank together, and were considered friends. At that time, he had a friend who, by chance, was brought into the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm by the sudden explosion of a sand tornado. At that time, he had even obtained quite a few treasures in the secret realm. However, after he reappeared, he mysteriously died within three days.”
It was said that he had been cursed by the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm and had died from the curse.
That incident left a deep impression on Wushuang Ghost.
When they were drinking together, the cultivator was drunk and unknowingly said a lot. Some secrets and taboos were mentioned, including those the people who entered the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm did not want to mention.
However, it was after that drunk incident that the man died in just one day.
There were no wounds on his body as if he had died of natural causes. His lifespan had been exhausted, and the way he died was very strange.
He was still alive the day before, but he died without knowing why the next day.
This kind of situation made many people extremely wary of the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm, not daring to mention it easily. They didn’t even want to get close to the secret realm, afraid that they would encounter bad luck and curses.
“Wushuang, do you know about the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm?” Li Xiang asked curiously.
“I know a little. According to my friend, the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm is very strange. It’s a ruin that is mysterious and dangerous. He was drunk at that time and didn’t say much. He only said that there was a Nine-story Devil Tower in the Devil Kingdom and didn’t say anything else. After that, he died inexplicably.” Wushuang Ghost explained everything he knew in detail with a serious expression.
“Devil Kingdom? Nine-story Demonic Tower?”
A strange look flashed in Li Xiang’s eyes, but he didn’t show it. He just kept this matter in mind. There was no need to mention it again since he hadn’t entered the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm.
However, he was still very curious as to whether this Nine-story Demonic Tower was the same as the one he knew of.
If it was true, then it would be interesting.
“There’s such news! It seems like those who entered the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm hid a lot of things from us. It might be taboo and can’t be told. Once it’s revealed, they will die inexplicably as if they’ve been cursed.”
Jin Xiangyu was an extremely intelligent person. She immediately guessed that the cultivators who entered the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm must have been banned from wantonly spreading anything that happened in the secret realm. Once it was leaked, they would encounter a disaster and die a strange death as if they had been cursed.
“Forget it. This kind of thing depends on fate. If there’s no fate, there’s no way to enter. If you can enter, it means that you’re fated with the secret realm. You can naturally understand what you want to know.”
Li Xiang didn’t force it and let the matter pass.
“The tornado will appear anywhere in the Golden Desert. It won’t be limited to a fixed location. Maybe you’ll have the opportunity to enter the secret realm, Country Lord Li. You’ll have to tell me if that happens. I can buy the information with money,” said Jin Xiangyu with a chuckle.
She was very interested in the information about the secret realm.
She was in the business of selling information. Information might not be valuable to others, but it was valuable in her hands.
Information was worthless to people who didn’t need it. It was a waste of time even listen to it. But those who needed it would be willing to buy it no matter how high the price was. To a certain extent, this was a business without cost.
Moreover, information would not be sold to just one party.
“Hehe! Country Lord, this Du Kang wine is indeed magical. I felt as if my entire body and mind were floating in a fairyland just now. I was so carefree. I had heard some people say that anyone who had Du Kang wine would either hide it well or drink it before it was discovered. I didn’t understand before, but now that I know that Du Kang Wine can really make one unable to stop drinking! If it was me, I would hide it even more securely!”
Wushuang Ghost grinned, holding the wine jar in his hands. He did not intend to put it down for even a moment. There was still more than half of the wine in the jar, but just a few sips were enough to make him fall into a carefree state.
He didn’t continue drinking, but sealed the precious wine again and kept it in his storage bag.
“Do you know that not to mention Du Kang Wine, even Du Kang himself is under the command of your Country Lord? He can have as much Du Kang Wine as he wants.” Jin Xiangyu could not help but laugh.
“Even Du Kang is under Country Lord?”
Wushuang Ghost was completely excited, and he could not suppress his excitement at all.
To a drunkard, this was the same as a pervert seeing a beautiful woman. He was extremely excited and difficult to restrain himself.
Du Kang! This meant that there would be an endless supply of Du Kang Wine in the future. He would no longer have to worry about not having any more wine to drink after finishing it.
“That’s right! Wushuang, why did you suddenly come to the Dragon Inn? Did you go out to hunt fierce beasts?” Li Xiang suddenly asked.
