Urban All-Round Master

After the three days of free giveaways ended, Liu Ruyan finally understood Nangong Bing’s intentions.

The Beauty Powder was indeed good. From the very start it was hyped up to a sky‑high price, and sold at a sky‑high price. The world is so big; apart from a few countries that dared to buy the Beauty Powder, those other merchants who didn’t know anything about it simply wouldn’t come to stick their necks out.

Distributors in other countries didn’t understand this stuff, so naturally they wouldn’t touch it. Without distributors running ads, consumers in other countries would of course have no idea what this so‑called Beauty Powder was.

During those few days of free giveaways, although the Beauty Powder produced by Huayu Group burned through a lot of capital, it pushed the Beauty Powder’s effect and reputation out to the entire world!

Once the three‑day free giveaway ended, those who had used Beauty Powder before would inevitably spend money to buy a ton of it. That was the real advertising. Consumer word of mouth is the biggest live advertisement of all!

——————————

After tasting endless benefits, Lin Zifeng and Big Handsome’s ambitions started growing bigger and bigger.

After tracking down the whereabouts of the Immortal Suppressing Tripod, Lin Zifeng took Big Handsome and headed overnight straight for the Sect Hall of the Divine Sky Sect. It was said that the Immortal Suppressing Tripod was right inside the Sect Hall. If they could get it, then this trip would be worth it...

Under cover of night, one man and one dog once again slipped into the Sect Hall.

Staring at the lofty summit before him, at the very top of the mountain, there was a grand and imposing palace. Lin Zifeng knew that had to be the Sect Hall.

The Immortal Suppressing Tripod was very likely somewhere in that supreme palace on the mountaintop.

So, one man and one dog moved together, slowly sneaking forward. When they reached the Sect Hall, Lin Zifeng was shocked to find that there wasn’t a single Guard posted there. Could it be that no one dared enter the Sect Hall?

”Kid, don’t you feel something’s off here? Why do I feel like there’s some weird aura in this place?”

After stepping into the Sect Hall’s area, Big Handsome immediately showed extreme agitation and unease. Its instincts were usually very accurate, so it sensed a certain degree of danger.

How could Lin Zifeng not also feel a powerful aura inside? It was not weaker than the aura of the Supreme Emperor of the Taishang Sect during the battle at Kunling Mountain.

It didn’t seem much weaker than the Supreme Emperor at all.

”Don’t tell me there’s someone inside the Sect Hall as strong as the Supreme Emperor?” Lin Zifeng’s thick brows furrowed slightly.

The Magic Bracelet had already started to feel extremely restless. If they went in like this, it would only add more danger—this was Lin Zifeng’s premonition.

The Immortal Suppressing Tripod was inside; they had already come this far. If they didn’t at least try, they might never get another chance.

”Kid, looks like tonight won’t be peaceful. We might very well run into those Supreme Elders of the Divine Sky Sect, maybe even bump into the Sect Master himself.” Big Handsome was growing uneasy as well.

”We’ve already made it this far, and you’re thinking about backing out?” Lin Zifeng narrowed his eyes, looking at the grand, awe‑inspiring Sect Hall. His mind was made up—the temptation of a Holy Artifact like the Immortal Suppressing Tripod was just too great.

With that, Lin Zifeng didn’t slow his pace. He strode forward, step by step, toward the Sect Hall. No matter what danger awaited, he had to give it a shot.

After all, the two of them had already stolen so many Peak Masters’ treasures. Sooner or later it would be discovered. If they didn’t move early, once they were exposed, it would be hard even to come back and try their luck.

Gulp~ Big Handsome swallowed hard, his heart jumping right up to his throat.

He followed in Lin Zifeng’s footsteps, moving toward the Sect Hall...

.........

”Hm?” Just as they entered the Sect Hall, Lin Zifeng’s brows twitched again; he felt a bit surprised. His X‑ray vision was fully open along the way, and he hadn’t seen a single person. It was precisely because of this that he grew even more tense.

If such a massive Sect Hall had no Guards and was this eerily quiet, there was definitely a reason.

”Dead Dog, you wait here for me first. In a bit I’ll go in. If anything dangerous happens, I’ll signal you, and you just run, got it.” Lin Zifeng said, looking back.

”Damn! What about you? I’m not running off by myself!” Big Handsome looked at him with wide, anxious eyes.

Lin Zifeng shook his head with a wry smile, not wanting to discourage him. He said, ”With you, you’re more of a burden to me. Without you, I might actually stand a better chance of getting away.”

”Damn it! It’s not you I’m worried about, it’s all those Elemental Power Seeds in your hands. If you kick the bucket and croak in there, then all the days I’ve spent running around with you will have been for nothing.” Big Handsome snarled.

Though he said that, in truth this Dead Dog was still worried about Lin Zifeng’s safety. On the way here, his instincts told him the Sect Hall was not a good place, so he was afraid something would happen.

”Remember, once anything happens to me inside, I’ll signal you. When that happens, you just run.” Lin Zifeng reminded him again.

”Hey, hey, hey! Kid, you’re really going in there alone?”

Big Handsome was still uneasy; who knew what kind of existence was inside?

But Lin Zifeng’s figure had already vanished outside the palace, turning into a bolt of lightning that shot into the palace interior.

With his X‑ray vision, finding the Immortal Suppressing Tripod wasn’t that hard. He kept going deeper into the Sect Hall. After dodging several life‑threatening dangers, Lin Zifeng arrived in an extraordinarily grand great hall!

In the center of the great hall there was a huge pyre. Above the flames floated a massive triangular purple cauldron, its purple aura soaring into the heavens. The body of the cauldron was covered in dragon‑shaped script and all sorts of complicated, obscure arcane characters.

The most eye‑catching thing about it, what most drew Lin Zifeng’s attention, was the purple mist pouring off the cauldron’s body, incomparably sacred.

The great cauldron hung in midair, with a pile of blazing fire beneath it, burning without pause. The temperature was extremely high; even at a relatively close distance, one could feel the heat against one’s skin.

”It really is a Holy Artifact!” Lin Zifeng’s eyes widened as he couldn’t help sighing. All his focus was drawn to that cauldron. If he wasn’t mistaken, this cauldron being roasted by the great fire had to be the Divine Sky Sect’s Holy Artifact, the Immortal Suppressing Tripod!

It was just that, why did they need to burn the Immortal Suppressing Tripod with such fire? He couldn’t figure it out. Big Handsome wasn’t by his side now, and there was no one to ask, so his head was filled with thick confusion.

”Collect!”

Lin Zifeng shouted, and the Magic Bracelet exerted its full strength to seize that purple‑aura‑shrouded Immortal Suppressing Tripod. First he had to get it; then they’d talk.

”Buzz buzz buzz... buzz buzz buzz... buzz buzz buzz...”

However, as the Magic Bracelet burned through a huge amount of Elemental Power to pull in the Immortal Suppressing Tripod, the tripod’s purple aura surged wildly, as if it possessed Spiritual awareness and refused to move from above the burning pyre.

”Collect!”

Lin Zifeng focused his mind and once again controlled the Magic Bracelet.

Whoosh~

This time, the Immortal Suppressing Tripod could no longer hold out. It was finally sucked up by a beam of white light from the Magic Bracelet into its inner Space.

”Good. Once I refine you, you’ll be my Holy Artifact.” After putting the Immortal Suppressing Tripod away, Lin Zifeng hurriedly headed back the way he came.

But just as he collected the Immortal Suppressing Tripod, earth‑shaking changes erupted within the Magic Bracelet’s storage Space. The Immortal Suppressing Tripod was like something being controlled by someone else, constantly ramming around and expanding inside the storage Space, as if it would burst through the Magic Bracelet and come crashing out at any moment.

And the Magic Bracelet was also straining with all its might to suppress the Immortal Suppressing Tripod. A Holy Artifact was clashing with a Divine Artifact.
