Another mission has arrived: ten sacred herbs.

Chu Xinghe didn't even know which palace he was living in.

He had been running around outside these past few days.

After returning from Wen Rushui's place, he chose to go find Zhongli Qingmeng.

This woman was indeed a villain, but she was also truly generous; she really gave away Saint Medicine if she had it.

Zhongli Qingmeng looked at Chu Xinghe.

Her eyes were filled with gossip.

"So, how did Wen Rushui treat you?"

Chu Xinghe's expression blanked for a moment, then he shook his head.

"I can tell from your expression—did you fail to cause even the slightest change in her?"

Chu Xinghe looked at Zhongli Qingmeng strangely.

"How do you know her so well? Are you very familiar with Master?"

Zhongli Qingmeng shook her head.

"I'm not that familiar with her, but when I first joined, I needed to inquire about something, so I inevitably had contact with her."

"She is a truly boring person, always maintaining a completely unruffled appearance."

"If it were any other power, I would have just sent people to snatch what I needed."

"But this person is Wen Rushui."

"I was indeed quite shocked when she took you as her disciple."

"So many heirs of great clans wanted to take her as their master, but no one ever succeeded. So, you're going to have quite a bit of trouble ahead."

Zhongli Qingmeng's tone carried a hint of schadenfreude.

"How about doing something for me?"

Chu Xinghe shook his head.

"Three stalks of Saint Medicine, plus information about Jiang Wanyin."

Chu Xinghe was stunned upon hearing Jiang Wanyin's name.

He thought of the young girl he had tricked.

"What do you want to say?"

Zhongli Qingmeng shook her head.

"I can't tell you yet. I'll only tell you once you complete the task."

"You're quite charming, to be able to make Jiang Wanyin act like that."

Chu Xinghe didn't speak.

"I can only tell you that her situation isn't very good. If you help me complete the task, I can have someone bring her a message."

Chu Xinghe thought for a moment and finally nodded helplessly.

"Speak then. Is it another mistake made by one of your incompetent subordinates?"

Zhongli Qingmeng wasn't angry upon hearing this.

"Wu Prefecture, Yu City. It's a root of trouble I planted before."

After saying that, she handed Chu Xinghe a jade pendant.

Chu Xinghe looked up at Zhongli Qingmeng.

"Three stalks of Saint Medicine aren't enough. I want five."

"The trouble you've caused yourself must be quite significant. Three stalks would be a bit of a loss for me."

"I'll give you ten."

Chu Xinghe: ...I'm so stupid, I should have raised the price earlier.

He couldn't go on like this. After finishing this task, he had to cling tightly to his Master's leg.

If he kept playing like this, who knows when he might get himself caught up in it.

Inside the spatial vortex.

Chu Xinghe glanced at the System.

Host: Chu Xinghe

Age: 18

Strength: Late Stage King Sealing

Physique: Immortal-Demon Body, Immortal Demon Eyes

Cultivation Technique: Immortal Demon Dao Scripture

Martial Skill: Immortal Demon Descends Upon Nine Heavens, Teleportation

Weapon: immortal demon zither, purple gold gourd

help points: 898,000

Inventory: immortal demon zither, one pair of black silk stockings, purple gold gourd, divine beast egg, five stalks of Saint Medicine.

Looking at the help points, Chu Xinghe endured; he would do an Advanced Gacha pull later.

He was only short by about a hundred thousand; he could gather it soon.

"System, one Intermediate Gacha pull."

[Consumed 500,000 help points. Congratulations, Host, on obtaining one Minor Realm Advancement Card.]

Chu Xinghe sighed; having it was better than nothing.

After using it, his strength rose to King Sealing Perfection.

The next step was to break through to the Emperor Sealing Realm.

Thinking about how that woman Zhongli Qingmeng had already broken through to the Void God Realm.

That bit of excitement faded significantly.

With nearly 400,000 help points left, he couldn't pull anymore... Wu Prefecture, Yu City.

Chu Xinghe walked down the street wearing a mask.

Like the reader lords, having such a face out in the open was too dangerous.

Because of the Fusion with the Immortal-Demon Body, that ethereal and otherworldly temperament.

Still attracted quite a few people.

He had to first determine who that Child of Destiny was.

At this moment, the sound of discussion rose.

"Quite a lot of people have poured into Yu City this time; it's so lively."

"They're probably here for the Linglong Pavilion auction, right?"

"That's only one aspect. There's another reason."

"Brother, tell us quickly."

"*Cough*, you see, it's almost noon, and I have things to do at home."

"Brother, if you're not too busy, I'll treat you to a trip to Guanxin Tower."

"Fair enough, then I shall accept your kind offer."

Hearing Linglong Pavilion and Guanxin Tower, Chu Xinghe's eyes flickered.

Guanxin Tower was a place for accommodation and dining; he had stayed there in Mysterious Province.

He didn't expect there to be one in Yu City as well.

As for Linglong Pavilion, who hadn't heard of it?

It sold various Medicinal Pills, weapons, and held auctions.

Chu Xinghe also followed into Guanxin Tower.

He sat not far from the person who had just spoken.

"The Linglong Pavilion auction is only one aspect. The other is that the Taixuan Sacred Land's Fairy Miaoyin is coming."

"Brother, tell me more?"

"I heard it from the cousin of the boyfriend of the niece of the third daughter-in-law of my neighbor Old Wang; he's an Inner Sect Disciple of the Taixuan Sacred Land."

"Now that you mention it, I remember Fairy Miaoyin seems to have come from our Yu City; she used to have a connection with Yu Linmo."

At the mention of Yu Linmo, the expressions of several people changed.

"Three years ago, that Young City Lord's Origin was dug out; he's considered crippled for the rest of his life."

Hearing this from a distance, Chu Xinghe frowned.

A Young City Lord... that's a bit of a problem.

Combined with the auction, Chu Xinghe's eyes narrowed.

This is getting interesting.

When he walked out of the tavern, he asked Zhongli Qingmeng for money.

"Rich lady, give me some money."

"What, taking my money to buy resources for yourself? You certainly know how to make a profit."

"Shadow Five and Shadow Six have some on them."

Shadow Six emerged from the shadows and handed Chu Xinghe a ring.

"The Young Miss told me to give this to you."

Chu Xinghe opened it to take a look.

Truly a filthy rich tycoon.

In the Grand Void Heaven Realm, the common currencies are Spirit Stones, Spirit Crystals, Spirit Origins, and Divine Stones. Each has Low, Medium, High, and Top Grade divisions.

One Mid-Grade Spirit Stone can be exchanged for a hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

But only a fool would actually exchange them.

What Shadow Six gave him was a hundred Top Grade Divine Stones, a thousand High Grade Divine Stones, and various medicinal herbs.

Most importantly, three rule jade talisman; these things can only be condensed by a Saint and allow a cultivator to comprehend rules.

This is of immense help even to experts of the God Emperor Realm, and they are priceless and rare.

Chu Xinghe took out the purple gold gourd.

He threw all the medicinal herbs inside.

After a while, over a hundred Medicinal Pills appeared in his hand.

Top Grade Soul Spirit Pills for the Emperor Sealing Realm.

He found Linglong Pavilion and walked in. It wasn't gold and jade, but built from thousand-year-old ancient wood.

Grand and elegant, with inscriptions carved on it.

"I wonder what the Young Master would like to purchase?"

Even though Chu Xinghe was wearing a mask, the Maid's eyes lit up.

"Auctioning items."

The Maid's eyes brightened. Although she couldn't see Chu Xinghe's appearance clearly, she could sense it from his temperament.

"Young Master, please follow me."

The Maid led Chu Xinghe into a room.

"Deacon, this Young Master wants to auction some items."

The Deacon looked at Chu Xinghe and nodded.

Chu Xinghe didn't waste words.

He took out the Medicinal Pills.

The Deacon stood up abruptly.

"Top Grade Soul Spirit Pills, good stuff!"

The Maid beside him was also startled.

"Top Grade Medicinal Pills—how long had it been since they'd seen any?"
