"Big business?"
The elder's interest was piqued. He shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian, "He is the big business you were talking about?"
"That's right. He is very rich. You can ask for as much as you want." The Thief of the World snickered, making Ling Xian speechless.
"Your cultivation is not bad, and your temperament is not bad as well."
The elder checked out Ling Xian. Seeing how handsome Ling Xian was and how reserved he was, his eyes flashed with shock.
Though this was their first meeting, his eyes were sharp. Naturally, he could tell that Ling Xian was extraordinary.
"You are flattering me."
Ling Xian softly smiled and didn't want to waste any more time. He got straight to the point, "I am here to find out some information."
"Everyone here is here for that."
The elder smiled, "I understand what you mean. Follow me, let's talk business."
With that, he turned around and walked towards the house in front of him.
Seeing this, Ling Xian followed. The Thief of the World did the same. His eyes shone with curiosity.
However, he was stopped by the elder.
"It's not like you don't know the rule of the Cicada Pavilion. A third person is not allowed to be here. So, you better stay where you are."
The elder said with a smile. He flapped around his sleeve and closed the door, blocking the Thief of the World outside.
This made the Thief of the World unhappy, but there was nothing he could do.
"I like this rule."
Ling Xian softly grinned and glanced around. The place was pitch black. There were no candles or pearls. The four walls were engraved with complicated formations and runes that could prevent outsiders from probing with their Divine Souls.
"This is one of the most important rules of the Cicada Pavilion. Without this rule, the Cicada Pavilion wouldn't have developed to where it is today."
The elder grinned, "Let me formally introduce myself. I am the manager of this place. Everyone calls me the Spectral Elder."
"Spectral Elder, I won't tell you my name." Ling Xian said softly, unwilling to reveal his real identity.
"I understand. Everyone here doesn't want to reveal their real identity. Many people even change their appearance."
The Spectral Elder softly chuckled, "Okay, let's end our small talk here. Next, let's talk business."
Hearing this, Ling Xian erased his smile and turned serious.
"State your purpose of coming here, what information do you need, whether it's a person, a matter, or an object." Elder Ghost chuckled and said, "I heard that the Cicada Tower only accepts these three types of information, I don't understand the rest."
"I'm looking for something."
Ling Xian spoke in a low voice. He knew very well that if he relied on himself, he would not be able to find Yu Hua Die. There wouldn't even be a single clue.
Only with the help of a force like the Cicada Listening House would there be a little hope.
Even though the Feather Butterfly was a treasure of Heaven and Earth and Ling Xian didn't want to reveal it to others, he had no other choice. In any case, he only wanted to inquire about the news, and it wouldn't attract the attention of others.
"What is it?" Elder Ghost's voice was old and full of smiles.
"Yu Hua Die."
Ling Xian slowly uttered out these three words. His tone was soft, but it was like a thunderclap that froze the elder's body.
"So you are here for Yu Hua Die."
The Spectral Elder stared at Ling Xian and softly sighed, "The eighth ranked treasure on the list of treasures sure is tempting."
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned slightly, a little confused.
However, what the Spectral Elder said next solved his confusion.
"Since last month, you are the tenth person to ask about Yu Hua Die."
At this, Ling Xian's frown deepened, "Before me, there were nine people who asked about Yu Hua Die?"
"That's right."
The Spectral Elder nodded, "I have been the manager of this place for hundreds of years and I have never met anyone who wanted to find Yu Hua Die. But since last month, there have been nine people asking about it."
"This is very unusual. Could it be that the Yu Hua Die is about to be born?"
Ling Xian's brows were tightly locked together. In the past hundred years, nobody came to ask about it, but in one month, there were nine people asking about it. He couldn't help but suspect that the Yu Hua Die had made a move and attracted everyone's attention.
"If the Yu Hua Die is about to be born, the Cicada Listening House will receive the news."
The Spectral Elder spoke softly, "But the Cicada Listening House only has one piece of news about the Yu Hua Die."
"Please tell me."
Ling Xian's spirit was lifted. He didn't care about the people who asked about the Yu Hua Die. What he cared about was whether or not he could learn about the butterfly.
"I can't tell you for free."
The Spectral Elder grinned, "You have to pay the price."
"Please speak. As long as it's reasonable, I will not say no." Ling Xian said in a low voice. His voice was powerful and powerful.
"I don't think I need to tell you how valuable the Yu Hua Die is. Information about it is also hard to get."
The Spectral Elder smiled, "However, I don't want your spiritual stones or treasures. I want you to tell me why you came here to find the Yu Hua Die."
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned. He understood what the elder meant. However, he didn't want to talk about it. Therefore, he avoided the question, "The Cicada Listening House is famous in the North Underworld Region. It is the best place to find the Yu Hua Die."
"No, you have misunderstood me."
The Spectral Elder looked at Ling Xian and smiled, "Don't avoid the question. You know what I am talking about."
"Can't I just not tell you?"
Ling Xian raised an eyebrow, knowing the elder's real intention. He wanted to know why he came to the North Underworld Region.
Though this doesn't seem like much, there was a hidden message. A very important message. Therefore, the Spectral Elder wanted to ask, but Ling Xian didn't want to answer.
"Of course you can. But you won't be able to get my information."
The Spectral Elder grinned, "I can tell you very clearly that this information is very useful."
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned and fell into a dilemma.
The Spectral Elder had made himself very clear. There were only two paths before him. One, to trade information for information. Two, to return empty-handed.
The latter was out of the question. It wasn't easy for him to find clues about the Yu Hua Die, how could he give it up so easily?
As for the former, it was a secret of the Yu Hua Die kind. Even if the Spectral Elder confirmed that the Yu Hua Die was born in the North Underworld Region, it wouldn't matter too much.
Therefore, after a moment of silence, Ling Xian said, "Oh well. I read from an ancient book that the Yu Hua Die was born in the North Underworld Region. Only when the last one dies will the next one be born. The last Yu Hua Die died in the North Underworld Region. "
"So the Yu Hua Die has such a secret."
The Spectral Elder's eyes brightened and he smiled, "Then I can confirm that my information is true."
"I have given you my information. It's your turn." Ling Xian's eyes were as sharp as swords as he stared at the Spectral Elder.
"Don't worry. I have always been honest."
The Spectral Elder grinned, "What I know is that 10 years ago, the Yu Hua Die appeared once in the Forest of Dreams."
At that, Ling Xian's eyes exploded with heavenly light, "Is that true?"
"I wasn't sure at first. But after hearing your information, I am certain that it is true." The Spectral Elder's voice was firm and firm.
Hearing this, the light in Ling Xian's eyes intensified.
He originally thought he would at most get some clues. He didn't think he would get the exact location!
Though that was 10 years ago and the Yu Hua Die might not still be in the Forest of Dreams, at least he was certain of one thing.
In this lifetime, the Yu Hua Die really did appear!
