BXBX NOVEL Chapter 214: Facing Impossibly Strong Opponents!
Following a shine of divine light from a transportation array, a haughty looking middle-aged cultivator in red robe sauntered out from Moonfall City’s transportation array.
This red-robed cultivator carried a long object that was bundled by cloth behind, where any cultivator who examined that bundle would display horrified expressions.
This cultivator was clearly a Heavenly Circuit Stage cultivator. That long bundled object was exuding a cold aura that clearly hinted of a flying sword.
One could tell this Heavenly Circuit Stage cultivator was not ordinary.
This red-robed cultivator adopted an insolent bearing that didn’t pace people in sight. After touring round some shops in Moonfall City, the cultivator strolled into a shop called Spirit Pellet Mill.
Upon noticing the red-robed cultivator, the Spirit Pellet Mill shop attendant didn’t dare to neglect him and hastily rushed to welcome him. The ship attendant asked prudently, “Does senior wish to purchase anything?”
“That isn’t necessary, what can a shop like yours possibly offer me,” the tone of this red-robed cultivator was exceedingly arrogant. “Get your shopkeeper to find me, I have some items to sell to your shopkeeper.”
“Please wait senior, this one will invite shopkeeper here,” the Spirit Pellet Mill shop attendant felt rather indignant but he didn’t dare to tarry and quickly rushed into the inner courts. Moments later, an elder dressed in a longevity robe strolled out.
“This one is surnamed Mo, shopkeeper of this mill,” the elder greeted the red-robed cultivator courteously and asked, “May I know how our mill can serve this esteemed guest?”
“This one is selling highly crucial items that isn’t convenient to reveal in public,” the red-robed cultivator bragged to Elder Mo and said, “I wish to chat in private with shopkeeper.”
“Since that is so, this way please,” Elder Mo hesitated slightly before leading the way around.
Though this red-robed cultivator appeared rather unsightly, Elder Mo wasn’t scared of him acting maliciously within the boundaries of Moonfall City.
“Now that’s only the two of us, I wonder what precious goods does esteemed guest have to show?” Elder Mo inquired of the red-robed cultivator after shutting the doors to this private room.
“Good,” the red-robed cultivator directly produced a wooden bottle and poured out several brown pellet medicines which shocked Elder Mo to the extreme. Following that, the red-robed cultivator swallowed the few brown pellets and issued with a gentle tone.
“Shopkeeper Mo, can you guess who I am?”
Upon hearing a young voice this time, Shopkeeper Mo was slightly stunned and his eyes soon flickered with delight. “Wei Suo, it’s you?”
“I was afraid that a mishap had befallen this place too,” Evidently, the red-robed cultivator was Wei Suo in disguise. He then fished out and activated a skill talisman to block off all sounds before asking with a weary voice, “Shopkeeper Mo, what exactly happened to Precious Treasure Pavilion?”
“Wei Suo, you truly came,” Shopkeeper Mo trembled faintly before sighing deeply. After composing himself he quickly answered, “A mishap has befallen both our young missies.”
“What happened to Han Weiwei?” Wei Suo’s body turned abruptly stiffed.
“Ten days ago, the young master of East Victory, Dong Qingyi, came to Precious Treasure Pavilion to visit our Ji Ya again,” Shopkeeper Mo gritted his teeth and continued, “This time, he brought along East Victory’s Elder Li who possessed an astounding cultivation. However, Dong Qingyi unexpectedly said that he was merely passing by and not here to propose a marriage. Hence, our misses didn’t really pay much attention to them. Yet one day after they departed, our little missy who was originally in closed door training, was suddenly poisoned and fell unconscious. Another two days later, Dong Qingyi suddenly returned with others to propose, and commented that he could satisfy any condition Ji Ya raised.”
“Poisoned?” Wei Suo breathed in deeply and asked, “Shopkeeper Ji Ya had no other alternatives but to agree to Dong Qingyi in order to cure Han Weiwei?”
Shopkeer Mo nodded with an ashen expression. “Indeed so. Our young missy was in extremely critical condition, and shopkeeper Ji Ya couldn’t find a physician to treat her in time. Thus, she could only agree. Following that, that Elder Li returned and halted young missy’s condition from worsening with skill technique. He also mentioned that curing her wasn’t difficult, but it would require roughly a month to prepare the medicines. As for the wedding date that Dong Qingyi proposed, it is exactly a month later. That person is truly despicable!”
“Such forceful antics!” Wei Suo coldly cursed. “Then isn’t Heaven’s First Sect going to intervene?”
“Shopkeeper Ji Ya already thought of that and seeked out Heaven’s First Sect for aid. However, Heaven’s First Sect claimed that there was no evidence and merely dragged for time, in addition to being incapable of assisting with young missy’s condition,” Shopkeeper Mo shook his head and continued, “Seeing Heaven’s First Sect’s attitude, perhaps they are already in cahoots with East Victory, wanting to share the Precious Treasure Pavilion amongst themselves. Otherwise, how could East Victory possibly behave so brazenly?”
Wei Suo contemplated silently before asking, “What is the state of the Precious Treasure Pavilion now, what plan does shopkeeper Ji Ya have?”
“That Elder Li is constantly residing in the Precious Treasure Pavilion on the pretext of observing young missy’s condition. Shopkeeper Ji Ya and young missy is obviously being imprisoned, and East Victory has dispatched many cultivators to surround Precious Treasure Pavilion. Ji Ya foresaw that you would arrive here for information and cut all contact with us, fearing that we would be exposed as Precious Treasure Pavilion’s property as well.”
The old Shopkeeper Mo then paused a while and coughed. “Shopkeeper Ji Ya wishes you to know this. Since Heaven’s First Sect refuses to intervene, the opposition is not something we can rival. She wants you to temporarily refrain from returning to Spirit Peak City or intervene in this matter. If possible, after she marries into East Victory, she will try to send young missy here and wishes that you will escape with young missy in the future.”
Wei Suo paused silently without any change in expression. He then inquired further, “You mentioned that Elder Li possesses an astounding cultivation level, may I know exactly what level is that?”
“I am not sure about the specifics, but he seems to be a character around Thought Division Stage level 3-4 or higher.” Shopkeeper Mo didn’t say anything else. Besides, with Wei Suo’s current cultivation, it was impossible to go against a Thought Division Stage level 3 character
“I got it.” Wei Suo’s eyes flickered and nodded. “I wonder if Shopkeeper Mo sells any excellent healing pellet medicines?”
“Our best healing pellet medicine is the Baselesspot Pellet.” Shopkeeper Mo answered.
“It is fine then, this one shall take his leave now. If there’s anything else, I will naturally find shopkeeper Mo again.” Wei Suo stood up and altered his voice with pellet medicine once again. Then, he departed from Spirit Pellet Mill.
After leaving Spirit Pellet Mill, Wei Suo continued touring around different shops of Moonfall City. He looked as though he was planning to stay here for a long while, and located a quiet room and another training room.
After entering the training room, Wei Suo first released out his Mind Devouring Bug and produced a jade basin. He poured two bottles of Demon Nurturing Liquid and dozens of demonic beast carcasses out, which crowded out this room.
Following that, he entered the quiet room and sat down in a meditative posture. He fished out a pellet bottle and produced a blood red pellet medicine.
During his journey to Moonfall City, he occasionally stopped to rest due to the limits of his divine sense. Still, Wei Suo didn’t idle but spent his time concocting Demon Nurturing Liquids and fed his Mind Devouring Bug diligently. Moreover, he also searched for healing pellet medicines that were better than the Little Long Life Pellet and the Hundred Grass Pellet.
After going through a few cities, Wei Suo managed to purchase a certain Nine Spiritshift Blood Pellet that could rejuvenate one within two days.
Apart from procuring the Nine Spiritshift Blood Pellet, he also purchased a single United Void Pellet.
After gaining clarity on current events, Wei Suo understood that panicking was useless. Thus, he prepared to refine this Nine Spiritshift Blood Pellet and heal his wounds first.
As for the United Void Pellet, Wei Suo wasn’t going to use it yet.
Besides, in the face of a Thought Division Stage level 3 cultivator, a Heavenly Circuit Stage 4 or 5 cultivator wouldn’t make a big difference. One could only rely on the might of artifacts or treasures when facing cultivators of higher levels.
Fighting head on against East Victory and Heaven’s First Sect was something Wei Suo definitely wanted to avoid. Yet for him to pat his buttocks and leave, Wei Suo was similarly unwilling to do so.
“Precious Treasure Pavilion probably cannot be preserved, but with a suitable opportunity, Han Weiwei and Ji Ya can still be rescued.”
After retrieving the Nine Spiritshift Blood Pellet, Wei Suo produced that metallic shimmering Blood Feasting Artifact Dagger. His brows knitted together as he sunk into deep contemplation.
After attempting along the way, Wei Suo found out this artifact couldn’t absorb a demonic beast’s blood to strengthen the might of the blood pearl.
From his experience in battling Ancestor Zhang, the Mid-grade Spirit Class Divine Six-Suns Firefork may not be sufficient to rival a Thought Division Stage level 3 or above cultivator. Right now, he could only rely on this dagger.
