Lin Feng frowned as he looked at Sun Wenqiang, not because he was deliberately targeting him, but because Lin Feng had received some disturbing news from him.
It had been five days since Lin Feng had arrived at the third level of the Heaven Realm. He had arrived at an ancient city called Mu City, which was rumored to have been built by the Demonic Emperor Mu Chen. However, the Demonic Emperor Mu Chen was an early Titled God and had fallen a long time ago.
After arriving at Mu City, Lin Feng found a place to stay and rested for a while. He then went to the largest trading company in Mu City, the Mu Trading Company, to inquire about the White Lotus Valley. However, Sun Wenqiang knew nothing about the White Lotus Valley.
That was not right. He was not completely ignorant.
According to Sun Wenqiang's explanation, the White Lotus Valley did exist in the early years and had given birth to a few terrifying Xiantian Life Spirits. That was how it got its name. However, the White Lotus Valley had disappeared countless years ago. It could also be that someone had deliberately concealed its appearance, so outsiders did not know where the White Lotus Valley was.
The reputation of the White Lotus Valley was too great. Therefore, people had been searching for the whereabouts of the White Lotus Valley for a long time. However, the results were not satisfactory. No one had ever found the White Lotus Valley. Therefore, after the Immemorial Era, the number of people searching for the White Lotus Valley had decreased. Until now, no one had inquired about the news of the White Lotus Valley.
Therefore, when he heard the news, Lin Feng's enthusiasm was suddenly doused with cold water. His heart was extremely depressed, but no matter how depressed he was, what could he do?
He had to face reality.
Sun Wenqiang knew that Lin Feng was a big client because he had tipped him a few hundred Immortal Stones, not including the consultation fee. Moreover, Lin Feng looked like a rich young master. His gestures were extraordinary, so he naturally had to accompany such a big client well. However, Lin Feng did not get the information he wanted. It seemed that he was not in a good mood.
Sun Wenqiang said, "Lin Gongzi, our Eldest Miss might have more information."
"Your Eldest Miss?" Lin Feng was surprised.
Sun Wen Qiang hastily nodded and said, "Yes, our Miss is in charge of the Zhou Tian Pavilion. The Zhou Tian Pavilion is the place where the Mu Clan gathers and distributes information. You can obtain a lot of astonishing information there. Although there hasn't been much news about the White Lotus Valley these past few years, there should still be some clues.
Lin Feng asked, "Where is your Eldest Miss?"
Sun Wenqiang said, "Our Eldest Miss is in the Mu City. However, if you want to meet her, you will have to pay a higher fee."
"That's not a problem. Tomorrow at noon, I'll meet your Miss here. You'll be in charge of informing her," said Lin Feng. Said Lin Feng.
Sun Wenqiang's left.
Sun Wenqiang opened his mouth. He wanted to say that whether or not the Eldest Miss could meet Lin Gongzi would depend on whether or not she had the time. However, he didn't know why, but he didn't dare to say that in front of Lin Feng. He couldn't help but smile wryly. Lin Gongzi seemed to have an indescribable temperament that influenced his thoughts.
The next day.
Lin Feng went to the Mu Clan's Trading Company again. When he heard that Lin Feng was coming, Sun Wenqiang personally came to welcome him. When he saw Sun Wenqiang, Lin Feng asked, "Is your Eldest Miss here?"
Sun Wenqiang said, "She's already here. Please follow me."
Lin Feng nodded and followed Sun Wenqiang to a drawing room on the third floor of the Mu Clan's Trading Company. When he entered the drawing room, he saw a woman wearing a purple dress sitting there and drinking tea. She was tall and had fair skin. Her face was beautiful and her temperament was outstanding. Even with Lin Feng's taste, he couldn't help but sigh. What a delicate and beautiful woman.
Obviously, this woman was the Eldest Miss that Sun Wenqiang had mentioned.
Sun Wenqiang brought Lin Feng here and left.
While Lin Feng was observing the Eldest Miss, she was also observing Lin Feng. Yesterday, Sun Wenqiang had come to see her. He had said that someone wanted to see her and ask for some information. Actually, she didn't want to see him, but Sun Wenqiang had said that he wanted to ask about the White Lotus Valley.
This was because she was very curious about the White Lotus Valley.
However, she hadn't expected that the person asking about the White Lotus Valley would be such a young cultivator. Of course, besides being young, he was also very handsome. However, she had seen too many handsome men. Naturally, she wouldn't look at Lin Feng differently just because he was handsome.
She stood up and introduced herself, "This servant is Mu Xianyu. May I know your name?"
"This servant is Lin Feng."
"So it's Lin Gongzi. Lin Gongzi, please have a seat."
Both sides exchanged some pleasantries. After the host and the guest were seated, a maid served Lin Feng some spirit tea.
Mu Xianyu smiled and said, "Yesterday, I heard that you were looking for information about the White Lotus Valley?"
"It's like that. I wonder if you know anything about the White Lotus Valley?" Lin Feng asked.
Mu Xianyu didn't answer Lin Feng's question. Instead, she asked, "What do you know about the White Lotus Valley?"
Lin Feng frowned slightly. This woman was really strange. He had spent money to get information, but he hadn't gotten any useful information. Instead, she asked him how much he knew about the White Lotus Valley.
How could she do business like this?
She could roughly guess what Lin Feng was thinking. Mu Xianyu said, "I'll use some information I know in exchange for some information you know."
It seemed that she didn't want to sell information about the White Lotus Valley.
She wanted to use information in exchange for information.
Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, "My knowledge about the White Lotus Valley is limited. I only know that there are a few Xiantian lifeforms there, and there's also a very powerful heavenly fire. Apart from that, I don't know anything else."
"There's really a powerful heavenly fire?"
Mu Xianyu's eyes lit up. Her actions made Lin Feng's heart skip a beat. Could it be that this woman also wanted the heavenly fire?
? Had a competitor appeared out of nowhere?
However, Mu Xianyu's next words dispelled Lin Feng's worries. Mu Xianyu said, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in the heavenly fire. I'm actually interested in something else, but I'm not sure if the White Lotus Valley really has that thing. However, that thing is more or less related to the heavenly fire. Since it's confirmed that there's a heavenly fire in the White Lotus Valley, there's a high probability that it's also in the White Lotus Valley."
Mu Xianyu didn't say what it was, and Lin Feng didn't ask. Lin Feng said, "Now, you can tell me what you know."
Mu Xianyu said, "Some time ago, I found out something."
Mu Xianyu paused for a moment before continuing, "I'm sure you know that the Xiantian lifeforms that were born in the White Lotus Valley were extremely powerful. Later on, it was said that they died in a great battle between Xiantian lifeforms."
"I've heard about it." Said Lin Feng.
Mu Xianyu continued, "Later generations wanted to find the White Lotus Valley, but they couldn't find it. Some people suggested that if they could find the descendants of the Xiantian lifeforms, they might be able to find some clues about the White Lotus Valley. However, after many years, there was no news about the descendants of the Xiantian lifeforms. Therefore, many people thought that maybe the Xiantian lifeforms didn't have any children."
Said Lin Feng, "The stronger you are, the more difficult it is to have children. Therefore, it's normal that they didn't have any children."
Said Mu Xianyu. "Yes, so many people thought that maybe they didn't have any children. Therefore, the clues were cut off."
"As time passed, the White Lotus Valley gradually became a legend. A few days ago, I accidentally found a descendant of a Xiantian lifeform. After a series of investigations, I was able to confirm that he really was a descendant of that Xiantian lifeform. Maybe he knows something about the White Lotus Valley. I've already sent people to bring him here. He'll be here soon. When he arrives, we might be able to find out more about the White Lotus Valley from him. Even if we can't find out the exact location, we should be able to get some useful information."
After hearing Mu Xianyu's news, Lin Feng was very happy. He had thought that the clues about the White Lotus Valley would be cut off, and that he wouldn't be able to find the celestial flames in the White Lotus Valley anymore. But now, it seemed that there was always a way out.
Said Lin Feng. "Maybe we can go to the White Lotus Valley together when the time comes?"
Mu Xianyu nodded and said, "Of course, that's not a problem."
Lin Feng didn't stay for long and left.
After Lin Feng left, the space distorted and an old woman appeared.
She was Mu Xianyu's protector.
Asked the old woman, "Miss, why did you agree to explore the White Lotus Valley with him?"
Said Mu Xianyu. "This person isn't simple."
"Yes." The old woman nodded and said, "That's why we have to be on guard against him."
Said Mu Xianyu. "We're both taking what we need. Maybe we can use him."
The old woman thought for a moment and said, "Should we send someone to investigate his identity?"
"There's no need," said Mu Xianyu.
The old woman thought about it and agreed. After all, they had only worked together once, and they probably wouldn't interact much in the future. There was no need to find out who Lin Feng was, and knowing too much might not necessarily be a good thing. Moreover, if Lin Feng found out that they were investigating him behind his back, there might be some unpleasant things.
After leaving the Mu Clan's Trading Company, Lin Feng frowned slightly. He felt that Mu Xianyu had agreed too quickly. Was there some sort of scheme behind this?
Lin Feng smiled bitterly. There was no need to think so much. Moreover, with his current strength, even if she had some sort of scheme, it would be very difficult for her to succeed.
So!
There was no need to worry!
He just had to wait patiently!
The next afternoon, Mu Xianyu came to Lin Feng's residence to visit Lin Feng. She brought a piece of news that made Lin Feng feel extremely depressed.
This was because the descendant of the Xiantian Realm cultivator had secretly run away on the way here.
"What's going on?" Lin Feng asked curiously.
Mu Xianyu smiled bitterly and said, "I heard that guy made all sorts of excessive demands on the way here and was reprimanded by the guard commander. Then, he ran away."
"All sorts of excessive demands? For example … " Lin Feng looked at Mu Xianyu.
Mu Xianyu said, "For example, at the beginning, this guy was clamoring for women. My subordinates had no choice but to take him to some brothels. But later, that guy made even more excessive demands. He didn't want to go to those brothels anymore. He even ordered my subordinates to help him snatch the good girls he had taken a fancy to. My subordinates naturally didn't agree, so a conflict broke out. This was the fuse that caused him to run away."
Lin Feng was speechless. This guy didn't look like a good person at first glance.
Back then, his ancestor had been a peerless hero.
He had made a great name for himself, and his legacy had been passed down to his generation. But now, he had become like this. It really made people sigh.
Lin Feng said, "Don't blame your subordinates. I think they did the right thing. Although we really want to get information about the White Lotus Valley, we can't make mistakes in our principles. We can't do things that are completely heartless."
Hearing Lin Feng say this, Mu Xianyu looked deeply at Lin Feng. She probably didn't expect Lin Feng to say something like this. After all, people nowadays only cared about benefits. How many people cared about the life and death of others? Or was this matter against morality?
Mu Xianyu said, "Don't worry, Young Master. I don't blame my subordinates for this. I've already sent people to look for that guy. I'm sure they'll find him soon."
"I hope so." Lin Feng nodded.
Mu Xianyu said, "Recently, there's news that Donghuang Taiyi's reincarnation has appeared. There's a gathering tomorrow, and some demonic cultivators will be coming. They'll probably bring news about this. Are you interested in attending?"
Lin Feng had already known about Donghuang Taiyi's reincarnation from Gu Xiaoling, but Lin Feng didn't know much about what had happened after Donghuang Taiyi's reincarnation. Originally, the news of Donghuang Taiyi's reincarnation had only spread to a small circle in the mortal world.
From the looks of it, the cultivators of the Heaven Realm also knew that the Eastern Emperor Taiyi had returned from his tribulation. The Eastern Emperor Taiyi was a powerful figure who had once single-handedly created the Heavenly Court. It could be seen just how powerful he was. Who knew what kind of attitude he would have when he returned from his tribulation?
Lin Feng said, "Of course I'm interested in attending. May I know where the gathering is tomorrow?"
Mu Xianyu said, "It's at Shepherd God Restaurant. I'll bring you there tomorrow."
Lin Feng cupped his fists and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Fairy."
Mu Xianyu smiled and said, "You're welcome, Young Master."
Mu Xianyu didn't stay with Lin Feng for long. She stayed for fifteen minutes before leaving.
