"I'm here to look for Hero Wang Kaichao. I have something to consult," said Xiao Chen.
"Oh, Mr. Wang is meeting guests. Please wait a moment. I'll line up for you!" The man nodded after listening and led Xiao Chen to a stone table in the yard in front of the door. Then, he poured a cup of tea for Xiao Chen and said, "Please enjoy." Then, he entered the house.
A fourth level martial artist was actually playing the role of a waiter? It seemed that this Wang Kaichao was really a character. He really knew how to do business. Letting a fourth level martial artist serve could satisfy the self-esteem of these guests. At the same time, it could intimidate the thieves.
Xiao Chen slowly poured and drank by himself. After waiting for about half an hour, the fourth level martial artist from before came out again. He said to Xiao Chen, "Young Hero, please follow me!"
Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. He didn't see anyone come out just now. How could it be okay? However, Xiao Chen didn't ask much. He followed the fourth level martial artist into the house. He saw a man in his forties sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room. He was tall and straight, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He could be considered a handsome person. However, there was a scar on his face, which affected his heroic aura. He looked a bit like a bandit.
"Please take a seat. I wonder why Young Hero is looking for me?" As Wang Kaichao spoke, his aura was also revealed. He was actually a sixth level martial artist. This shocked Xiao Chen.
No wonder this person could occupy a place in the Hakunamata Desert. His strength wasn't weak. However, this wasn't important. Xiao Chen wasn't here to fight. He just sat calmly opposite Wang Kaichao.
Wang Kaichao nodded in his heart. It seemed that this person wasn't an ordinary person. Under such an imposing aura, he was still able to maintain his calmness. This made Wang Kaichao look at him in a different light.
"Hero Wang, I want to inquire about something. I hope Hero Wang can give me some pointers." Xiao Chen said, "I wonder if Hero Wang's consultation fee …"
"Haha! Little brother, is this your first time here? "Wang Kaichao laughed.
"Yes." Xiao Chen was startled, then nodded and said, "This is my first time here."
"Hmm. If you want to ask me, Wang Kaichao, for information, you can pay me with money. You can also give me worldly treasures. As for the specifics, it will depend on the value of the information you want to know," Wang Kaichao said with a smile.
"Alright, no problem!" Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. As long as he could get the money, it was fine. So he said, "The matter I want to inquire about is related to the Heavenly Flame of the Fiery Mountain …"
"One hundred thousand," Wang Kaichao said.
"Ah?" When Xiao Chen heard the price, he was completely stunned. He didn't expect it to be so cheap. One piece of information for 100,000?
Looking at Xiao Chen's expression, Wang Kaichao thought that he thought it was too expensive, so he explained with a smile, "My information starts at a hundred thousand, and the Heavenly Mystical Flame isn't a secret. You can ask others, and you'll also know. But if you ask me, it starts at a hundred thousand. This rule can't be broken!"
"No, I haven't finished what I want to say." When Xiao Chen heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I want to inquire about it. Two years ago, there was a trial team that went to the ancient ruins of the Fiery Mountain. I heard that it was a mission issued by the Secular World Martial Artist's Guild. The content of the mission was related to the Heavenly Mystical Flame …"
"Trial team? And then? " Wang Kaichao asked after listening. Xiao Chen's words were too general. He couldn't tell what was going on at the moment.
"This trial team disappeared. I only know that the leader was called Xiao Feng, and his teammate was called Cheng Zhongqian," Xiao Chen said.
"Trial team … Xiao Feng … Cheng Zhongqian … Heavenly Mystical Flame … Let me think." As he said this, Wang Kaichao fell into deep thought.
Xiao Chen didn't disturb Wang Kaichao. Instead, he quietly waited for Wang Kaichao to think. After a while, Wang Kaichao seemed to have thought of something and said, "I don't remember the name of the person you mentioned. However, I vaguely remember that there was a small team from the secular world that went missing near the ancient ruins of the Blazing Mountain. After that, the Warrior Guild headquarters from the secular world came to investigate! Because most of the people who come here for the trial are martial artists, there aren't many from the secular world, so I have some impression of it. "
"Oh? Then do you remember where this team disappeared, and why they disappeared? "Xiao Chen asked.
"I don't know about this. Because when the Martial Artist's Guild headquarters came to investigate, they didn't find anything. And because it was a matter of the secular world, it didn't have much to do with me, so I didn't bother to ask about it." Wang Kaichao shook his head and said, "Now, things have changed. It's been so long, it's hard to find anything. But one thing is certain, they disappeared near the Fiery Mountain."
"If that's the case … then thank you very much." Although Xiao Chen was a little disappointed, he had also guessed this result. If someone really wanted to deal with his father, then they definitely wouldn't leave any clues or blackmail for people to find. Most likely, it was the people behind Cheng Zhongfan who did it.
What he didn't know now was whether they hired someone to do it, or if they did it themselves. And whether his father was still alive, Cheng Zhongfan didn't know either. But the people who knew were all dead, and with Xiao Chen's current strength, it was not enough to take revenge on the people behind Cheng Zhongfan.
"There's no need. I didn't help you, so there's no need to thank me." Wang Kaichao waved his hand, "I'm also a businessman. Even if I didn't help, I won't charge you."
"No, why don't you tell me about the Fiery Mountain and the Heavenly Flame?" Xiao Chen smiled, "One hundred thousand, right? I'll transfer the money to you now! "
"Haha, that's fine!" Wang Kaichao smiled and said, "Flame Mountain is the name of an ancient sect. These ancient sects have already disappeared with the passage of time, but it is obvious that they were preparing to leave. Therefore, there are not many heavenly treasures left in the Flame Mountain that can be found. Aside from the rich Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, which can regularly grow some medicinal herbs, the most famous thing is that there is a kind of True Quenching Flame beneath the Flame Mountain, which is also a kind of Heavenly Flame called the Nine Underworld Flame! It is said that by bathing in the hot spring water above this Heavenly Flame, it can refine the body, allowing ordinary people who can't cultivate to embark on the path of a martial artist. It can also increase the aptitude of a martial artist or a devil cultivator! "
"Therefore, many cultivators will go there to take a bath. But because the Fiery Mountain's ancient ruins is a large array formation, after entering, the route is randomly arranged. Every time you go there, it will be different, so there is no map. After entering, whether or not you can find the hot spring depends on your luck. Some people wander around for a month and still can't stand the heat, but still may not be able to find the hot spring. Regretfully, they can only be sent out." Wang Kaichao said, "And those who find the hot spring won't be able to soak for long before they are driven out."
"Oh? What's the reason for this? Could it be that the hot spring will automatically drive people out? "Xiao Chen asked with a strange expression.
"That's not the case. Because the size of the hot spring is limited, even if the Fiery Mountain is an illusion array, because there are too many cultivators, there will still be many people who will find the hot spring. Therefore, only those with great strength can soak in the hot spring for a long time. Others will be replaced not long after entering." Wang Kaichao said.
"There's such a thing? Then what if one's strength is very weak, and after entering, they find that there is no position, then what? Wouldn't that be a wasted trip? "Xiao Chen asked.
"If that's the case, then you can wait on the side." Wang Kaichao said with a smile, "Every person enters the Fiery Mountain for one month. After one month, they will be automatically sent out by the illusion array. Of course, you can come back again, but the route will be completely different. Whether or not you will be lucky enough to find the hot spring the second time is hard to say! Therefore, as long as you don't have to be sent out in a few days, you can patiently wait on the side and there is a possibility of finding a position. Like this, no matter how strong you are, you can't always occupy the hot spring! "
"I understand now." After listening, Xiao Chen couldn't help but nod and said, "Since that's the case, is there any convenient way to reach the hot spring?"
"That's it. When I was young, I also went there several times, but there were times when I couldn't find it." Wang Kaichao said with a smile, "There is a ready-made map here. You can find the ancient ruins of the Fiery Mountain. As for after entering, you can only leave it to fate."
"Thank you very much. I'll pay you the consultation fee." Xiao Chen nodded. He had asked everything he needed to ask.
"Well, my card number is …" Wang Kaichao said a set of numbers.
Xiao Chen picked up his phone and transferred 200,000 yuan to Wang Kaichao. Then he said, "The remaining 100,000 yuan can be considered as a deposit. I also ask Mr. Wang to help me inquire about the trial team!"
"That's not a problem!" Wang Kaichao also saw Xiao Chen's sincerity. He also relied on this to make a living, so he didn't decline. Leave me your contact number. If I have any news, I'll inform you immediately.
"Okay." Xiao Chen said and told Wang Kaichao his Wei contact number. Then he said goodbye and left.
To be honest, he didn't have any hope of finding his father in the Fiery Mountain. After all, Wang Kaichao said that it had been too long. There were people coming and going there. Even if there were any clues, they would have been wiped clean.
Xiao Chen's trip this time around was nothing more than a thought in his heart. Furthermore, he wanted to see if he could subdue the Heavenly Flame. If he could, it would be extremely good. Not only would his battle prowess increase, he would also be able to refine pills.
The Underworld Flame, this name was incomparably powerful. Perhaps it was even more powerful than the Samadhi True Flame. Now that he was here, if he let it go, Xiao Chen wouldn't be willing.
