Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 536: Chapter 250: Discovering the Mine, Escaping Danger, Seventh Prince

Therefore.

Liuu Meizhen was the only one heading to the Cloud Dragon Marketplace.

Fu Yongyi was somewhat worried:

”Mother, be careful on your journey.”

.....

The Cloud Dragon Marketplace is a thousand miles away from Butterfly Valley.

Liuu Meizhen, riding the Two-headed Green-eyed Python, arrived at the entrance of the marketplace before dark. Unlike Jingzhou, there were quite a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators coming and going near the Cloud Dragon Marketplace, and occasionally you could see Great Cultivators of the Purple Mansion flying.

This alone shows.

Jingzhou is more prosperous than Jingzhou.

At the entrance.

The ones guarding the city gates are all Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Liuu Meizhen queued up at the end of a long line, and when it was her turn, the guard glanced at her Life Disc and muttered:

”Another one from South Huai.”

Though the voice was low.

Liuu Meizhen heard it clearly.

She furrowed her brow slightly.

But she didn’t know who the guard was talking about.

Passing through the Barrier Gate.

A rich Spiritual Qi rushed to her face.

Liuu Meizhen sensed it.

The richness of this Spiritual Qi was much stronger than the Tier Three Low-Grade Spirit Vein at their Yunshan County’s fiefdom:

”Jingzhou really spares no expense.”

Looking around.

The marketplace was bustling with crowds, with cultivators in various Dharma Robes shuttling between the myriad of stalls.

There were stalls selling Flying Swords.

Stalls selling pills.

There were also small talisman stalls, where various talismans trembled in the wind, including Fire-Controlling Talismans, Thunder Protection Talismans, etc., with the stall owner holding a Talisman Painting Brush and drawing live, attracting many onlookers.

From the distant Spirit Pet Pavilion.

Occasionally came the screeching and howling of Spirit Pets, Spirit Deer emitting auspicious aura and Spirit Fox with lively eyes were all confined in specially made Spirit Cages, waiting for someone destined.

The whole marketplace was enveloped in Spiritual Qi, bustling with activity.

The flow of customers was far greater than the Wanning Marketplace.

Liuu Meizhen chose a window seat in the Rainy Mood Tea House, ordered a pot of Fangping Tea.

She opened all her senses.

From the neighboring tea seat came faint conversation:

”Brother Qiu, I heard that a mysterious ancient site has emerged at the border of the Land of the Far West, and the Court has reportedly gathered manpower to compete with the sects of the Far West for control of this site. Is this news true or false?”

”Brother Liao, this is no lie. At the time of the emergence of the site, it caused quite a stir. I specifically went to the Master of All Things to inquire about the news, and I heard...”

The following words had turned into transmission.

After a while.

An excited voice came again:

”Brother Qiu, since this is the case, we must get ready as soon as possible.”

”Indeed, after all, the intelligence from the Master of All Things is always accurate, bought with real silver, and never wrong.”

”Entering this ancient site and obtaining an opportunity, then the Spirit Stones we’ve accumulated will be sufficient to lease a shop from the Tang Family. Shops in the Cloud Dragon Marketplace make gold every day. With it, we brothers will have a foundation to settle down.”

”.....”

Sitting next door, Liuu Meizhen placed three Spirit Stones on the tea table, rose, and left the tea house, identifying the direction.

Headed towards West Street.

At the end.

A shop built from skeletons came into view, emitting a sinister Blood Qi.

Above the shop hung a sign reading:

”Master of All Things”

The door was tightly shut.

Liuu Meizhen glanced at the groove on the door.

With a wave of her sleeve.

Ten Spirit Stones fell into it.

Buzz!

The door opened wide.

Liuu Meizhen stepped inside.

Inside, a myriad of recently deceased Demon Beast heads hung upside down, the central point of the room harbored a blood-colored mirror.

On the mirror, a crooked line of text declared that different intelligence required different rewards, not only limited to Spirit Stones.

Buzz!

A gust of sinister wind blew past.

The text on the mirror vanished instantly, and gray mist permeated, then transformed into a strange skull. Within nine eye sockets, Ghost Fire swirled, a voice emerging that was neither human nor ghostly:

”Hehe, tell me what you wish to know.”

.....

After leaving the Master of All Things.

Liuu Meizhen stayed in the marketplace for a few more days, confirming the intelligence’s accuracy.

Only then did she depart from the Cloud Dragon Marketplace.

Upon leaving the marketplace.

She subtly felt something amiss:

”Being watched?”

Suddenly.

She recalled the guard’s unintentional remark upon her entrance, ”Another one from South Huai,” could it be...

In a flash of insight.

Liuu Meizhen suddenly guessed a possibility.

Yet she hadn’t anticipated that she already consumed a Disguise Pill; ordinary people shouldn’t recognize her at all.

After a moment’s deliberation.

Liuu Meizhen didn’t summon the Two-headed Green-eyed Python, opting for transportation flight instead, and not towards Butterfly Valley.

After leaving the Cloud Dragon Marketplace.

She flew toward Hongmeng Mountain, towering into the clouds, where the Jingzhou World Suppression Bureau is located.

Once she entered the mountain.

The initially trailing aura clearly stopped at the outside of the mountain gate.

In the pine forest at the foot of the mountain.

A burst of white light appeared, followed by the fleeting figure of the Gongsun Clan Leader, his eyes flashing with hesitation:

”Could it be that I was mistaken?”

But that woman’s aura was indeed very similar to Liuu Meizhen’s.

The Gongsun Clan Leader waited at the original spot for nearly half a month.

Never saw that woman come down from the mountain, feeling a sense of relief:

”Luckily, I didn’t make a move earlier.”

Evidently.

That woman is with the World Suppression Bureau.

Otherwise, how could she stay at the World Suppression Bureau for so long?

The Gongsun Clan Leader turned away.

The Demon Beast materials he brought had yet to find a suitable buyer, and the auction at the Cloud Dragon Marketplace was about to be held.

....

Within Hongmeng Mountain.

Liuu Meizhen waited in a side hall of the World Suppression Bureau for about a month, finally rising to speak to the guard:

”Since Hall Master can’t make time, I will return another day.”
