Mu Youfeng's face was ashen as he shook his head. "An expert like him would not bother to deal with us. If he wanted to kill us, he would have killed us just now."
Mu Youfeng's words slowly freed the two girls from their fear. However, their faces were still bloodless, and they looked pitiful from being frightened.
"Hmph! The Divine Wood Family truly lives up to their reputation. Today's heroic performance is an eye-opener! "
The cultivator from before stared coldly at Mu Youfeng and said frostily, "I will report everything that happened today to the Sanctuary enforcers in a while."
Mu Youfeng snorted coldly. "As you wish."
After taking a trip to the gates of hell, Mu Youfeng felt exhausted all over and did not care about anything else.
"Go back, go back, I want to go back. Quickly send me back!"
Jiang Xiuzhen suddenly shouted agitatedly. "Quickly send me back! Those two demons will come to kill me!"
Mu Youfeng forced out a smile and said, "Elder Jiang, they have already left. They won't be coming back."
"Who said they won't be coming back? Quickly send me back! "
Jiang Xiuzhen nearly roared. He grabbed Mu Youfeng's collar and said angrily, "It's all your fault! It's all your fault! If not for you, how could I have encountered those two demons? How could I have ridiculed them for no reason and offended them! You really are the bane of my life! I have been taking care of your Divine Wood Family, but you actually came to harm me! "
Mu Youfeng felt an incomparable disgust in his heart. He wished he could slap him to death. He still had the face to say that. If not for him ridiculing them, he would not have lied in front of the entire city and embarrassed himself.
However, his rationality still won over his emotions. He said, "Since Elder Jiang wants to leave, I will send someone to make arrangements."
Jiang Xiuzhen heaved a heavy sigh of relief. His entire body seemed to collapse, and he nearly sat on the ground.
Taohong and Ru 'er did not hide the contempt and disdain on their faces, as well as endless disgust. When they thought of this good-for-nothing thing in front of them, who had used his hands to randomly touch their bodies, they felt like vomiting.
After Li Yunxiao flew out of Fixed Heaven City, he changed his direction several dozen miles away from the city. After making sure that no one could catch up with him, he flew in a fixed direction.
The nearest town to Fixed Sky City was called Seawood Town. From the map of the Northern Region that he had bought, this town didn't have a large population, but it had a medium-sized teleportation array that could reach at least one-tenth of the towns in the Northern Region.
He recalled the description of this town in the jade scroll: Sea Wood Town, located in the North Sea, is one of the thirty-one vassal towns of Fixed Sky City, and is controlled by the Divine Wood Family.
The northern region was not only the region with the densest spiritual qi in the continent, but it was also the region with the largest territory. It was unknown just how many miles wide it was. Even peerless experts would not be able to fly around the northern region in less than a few decades.
In Li Yunxiao's previous life, he had never heard of the Divine Wood family or Seawood Town, but now, he was interested.
Not only was Seawood Town the closest to Fixed Sky City, but the map also said that this town produced a kind of divine tree called the Rootless Green Tree. It was said that it was a variant of the Eternal Evergreen Tree, and it could bear a kind of fruit.
This tree bloomed once every thirty years and bore fruit once every thirty years. After another thirty years, the fruit would mature. It was called the Spirit Lightning Fruit, and it was a precious natural treasure.
As the name implied, this fruit was lightning-attributed, and it was extremely beneficial to lightning-attribute Martial Cultivators.
Li Yunxiao also knew about this fruit. Although it was a natural treasure, it wasn't extremely rare. He had obtained it before, but he hadn't known it was produced in Seawood Town.
There were many thunder-attribute Heaven and Earth treasures in the world, and there were many that could surpass this fruit. However, any Heaven and Earth treasure was extremely rare, and only this fruit could be artificially cultivated and mass-produced.
He hadn't cared about this in the past, but now that he possessed the lightning art, he had already reached a certain bottleneck. If he wanted to make another breakthrough, he would probably need a great opportunity.
As for the Spirit Lightning Fruit, it just so happened that it was on the path he was on. It wouldn't take long for him to understand it, and he might be able to find an opportunity to break through the bottleneck of the lightning art.
He turned into a bolt of lightning and quickly flew through the sky. After a few days, he finally arrived in the territory of Seawood Town.
Although he still couldn't see the town, he could see a few streaks of light rapidly flying over.
Li Yunxiao stopped and revealed a puzzled expression. He could feel that the streaks of light seemed to be heading towards him.
As expected, three figures directly appeared in front of him.
Among the three, there were two men and one woman. One of them was a hunchbacked old man, the other was a man wearing a green hat, and his eyes were like a phoenix. The last woman had a wide face and a large body, and she was dressed like a simple farmer's wife.
Li Yunxiao could see through the cultivation of these three people at a glance. The hunchbacked old man had the strength of a six-star Emperor Wu, while the other two were five-star existences.
He couldn't help but be surprised. Although the overall strength of the warriors of the Northern Region was higher than that of the other three regions, the existence of a middle-level Emperor Wu's cultivation was not easily seen, let alone in such a remote town. Moreover, he had seen three of them at once.
The three people's faces revealed a surprised expression, and they looked a little bewildered because they found that they couldn't see through the cultivation of the young man in front of them at all.
The hunchbacked old man looked at Li Yunxiao a few times, and asked with some uncertainty, "Friend, are you going to Seawood Town?"
Li Yunxiao frowned slightly, and said, "In this direction, besides going to Seawood Town, where else can I go?"
The hunchbacked old man suddenly laughed, and said, "It seems that I didn't get the wrong person. Friend, you should also be here for the Spirit Lightning Fruit."
Li Yunxiao said, "Let's not talk about why I'm here, but the three of you … why are you here?"
The hunchbacked old man laughed, and said, "If you are here for the Spirit Lightning Fruit, then we are here for you."
"Oh? If the three of you have something to say, then just say it. "
Li Yunxiao slowly put his hands behind his back, and looked like he was all ears.
The three people frowned slightly. Although they couldn't see through Li Yunxiao's cultivation, they could see that he was actually around 20 years old, so they didn't think that his strength could surpass the three of them.
But at this moment, seeing his fearless appearance, they couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
The man with phoenix eyes wearing a green hat said, "Then we will say it directly. Friend, you didn't use the transportation formation, but directly flew over from Fixed Sky City, so you must be looking for a lot of Spirit Lightning Fruit. The few of us specialize in receiving guests like you. "
With Li Yunxiao's intelligence, he immediately understood and said, "You are here to smuggle Spirit Lightning Fruit?"
The three people's expressions changed, and a gloomy look flashed across their faces, but they quickly recovered.
The hunchbacked old man coughed a few times, and said, "You can't put it in such a bad way. What Spirit Lightning Fruit? This is the biggest taboo in Seawood Town, and you will be hunted down. We are only selling Spirit Lightning Fruit wholesale. "
"That's right, wholesale!"
The square-faced woman also said.
Li Yunxiao frowned, and said, "Does Seawood Town have a purchase limit for Spirit Lightning Fruit?"
The three people were stunned, and they looked at Li Yunxiao strangely again. The man with phoenix eyes even glared and said, "Why don't you know? Are you not here to buy Spirit Lightning Fruit? "
Li Yunxiao said, "I really don't know. Please explain in detail."
The man's face immediately sank, and he sneered, "Don't try to play any tricks. If it wasn't for the Spirit Lightning Fruit, why would you spend so many days flying over from Fixed Sky City?"
Li Yunxiao explained, "I was originally planning to go somewhere else, but something went wrong during the teleportation, and I was directly teleported thousands of miles away from here. That's why I came to Seawood Town, intending to leave through the teleportation formation here. However, I am also very interested in the Spirit Lightning Fruit. "
In order to prove his words, he raised his hand, and a trace of green lightning flickered on his fingertip before disappearing.
The three people's pupils constricted, especially the hunchbacked old man, whose eyes flashed with a trace of extreme shock and fear.
This was because the power of lightning that Li Yunxiao had just displayed was abnormally pure. Even he, who specialized in lightning cultivation techniques, had to admit that he was inferior.
"Cough, cough. It's good that this friend is interested in the Spirit Lightning Fruit."
The hunchbacked old man coughed a few times before saying, "According to the rules of Seawood Town, anyone can only buy a limited amount of Spirit Lightning Fruit, and they have to go through extremely strict management and registration. Even a high-level Martial Emperor is only allowed to buy a hundred of them. "
He then carefully stared at the changes in Li Yunxiao's face, wanting to find some clues.
This was because he was still suspicious of Li Yunxiao's cultivation. At this age, there was no way that Emperor Wu could reach high level. At least, the four prodigies of the north couldn't do it.
"A hundred? That's not enough! "
Li Yunxiao's face darkened, and he snorted, "The Spirit Lightning Fruit is only the size of a thumb. For those who specialize in lightning god art, ten thousand is barely enough."
"Tch! Ten thousand!! "
The three of them sucked in a breath of cold air. Clearly, they were shocked by Li Yunxiao's random numbers.
The farmer woman said, "How many do you want, friend?"
Li Yunxiao retorted, "How many can you provide?"
The farmer woman's lips moved, wanting to say something, but she stopped and turned to look at the hunchbacked old man. Clearly, the hunchbacked old man was the backbone of the three.
This was very normal. In the world of martial artists, the strong were always respected.
The hunchbacked old man said, "We definitely can't take out ten thousand. In fact, we don't have much on hand. We just save a little and buy some from other places. So we only have around a thousand."
Li Yunxiao sneered in his mind. He knew that the hunchbacked old man was lying. Three intermediate level Emperor Wu wouldn't wait outside Seawood Town for a mere thousand Spirit Lightning Fruit.
He didn't point it out and just said, "If that's the case, then there's nothing to talk about. A thousand is far from what I need. I'll just go straight to Seawood Town. "
The hunchbacked old man didn't stop him and just stepped aside, "Then there's no other way. Friend, please."
