"When I left the Ocean Gambling City with Shang Mouliang, he said that it was not safe to leave the True Spirit World with me. Therefore, he took care of it for me. I could not resist at all." Shi Yulan's tone had already calmed down. Ning Cheng guessed that Shi Yulan had already taken note of this enmity.
"How did you end up in the Orchid Borough Celestial River and ended up being sold to the slave market?" Ning Cheng asked in doubt.
Shi Yulan's hands turned white, "Shang Mouliang accepted the invitation of the Orchid Borough Celestial River King and came to the Revolving Jade City. He even brought me along. In fact, he knew that I was a vengeful person and did not feel at ease leaving me in the Shang Mou Celestial River. I did not want to be treated as a puppet, so I used his name to sign up for the Man Lun Starry Skies' Celestial Scryer Genius Tryouts, which angered him. He threw me into the slave market in front of so many people. He didn't show me any mercy. "
"Shang Mou Celestial River King is in the Revolving Jade City?" Ning Cheng asked in shock.
He was shocked that Shang Mou Celestial River King was in the Revolving Jade City. As for Shi Yulan wanting to stay alive and participate in the Celestial Scryer Genius Tryouts, he understood it very well. To leave the Shang Mou Celestial River King, the only way was to go to the Man Lun Starry Skies.
Shi Yulan nodded, "Yes, he is indeed in the Orchid Borough Celestial River, but he will soon leave the Orchid Borough Celestial River."
"I'm afraid that once he knows that the person who bought you is Wuming, he will not let you go." Ning Cheng spoke with a frown.
Shi Yulan remained silent. She had no way out. If Ning Cheng drove her away, she would once again fall into the hands of the Shang Mou Celestial River King.
"You stay here and don't go out. Go talk to Lan Ya and tell her not to go out either. When the Orchid Borough Celestial River's tryouts begin, that Shang Mou Celestial River King will definitely leave this place. Shang Mou Celestial River will also have to go through the tryouts. He cannot stay here for long. "Ning Cheng finally decided to let Shi Yulan stay.
Shi Yulan did not say any words of thanks this time. She stood up and gave Ning Cheng a bow before turning around and walking towards Ning Cheng's room.
"Wait." Ning Cheng called out to Shi Yulan, "Do you know the best mask-type weapons in the Revolving Jade City?"
"There is a place called Ice Wind Merchant Merchant House. This place is not very conspicuous, but many people in the Revolving Jade City know about it. This place has the best concealment treasures, but the price is also very high. Ordinary cultivators are not willing to go there … "
Speaking until here, Shi Yulan subconsciously reached out to take out the jade strip containing the map of the Revolving Jade City from her ring. However, she immediately showed a self-deprecating smile. Apart from the set of clothes on her body, she did not have anything else. So he continued, "The Ice Wind Merchant House is located at the North Gate of the Revolving Jade City. After you get there, you can ask any local cultivator about it."
Ning Cheng nodded, "You go back and tell Lan Ya, not to go out for the next few days. I will bring you and Lan Ya's rings tomorrow."
Shi Yulan did not refuse. In a starry sky city, without a ring or a weapon, it would only lead to death. Not to mention participating in the qualifiers.
Not long after Shi Yulan left, Jing Wuming once again stood at the door of Ning Cheng's room.
Ning Cheng opened the restriction and let Jing Wuming in. Jing Wuming heard Shi Yulan's words. Ning Cheng knew that Jing Wuming was listening at the door, so he deliberately released the restrictions to let Jing Wuming listen. If two people wanted to resolve the misunderstanding, then they must first understand what the misunderstanding was.
However, between Jing Wuming and Shi Yulan, there was no such thing as a misunderstanding. For the two of them, it was an enmity of killing one's father. Even Ning Cheng had no way to mediate between them.
"I heard it all." Jing Wuming spoke the first sentence after coming in.
Ning Cheng gave out a sigh, "I don't know how to help you. You and Shi Yulan live very close to each other. This kind of thing, you need to deal with it yourself."
Jing Wuming's face no longer showed the torment and anxiety from before. His tone even turned calm and calm, "Xiaocheng, let's end this matter here. There is no right or wrong in this matter. It stands to reason that I should have killed her to take revenge, but I really couldn't bring myself to do it. Her parents and her entire family were destroyed by my Wu Nian Academy, but she also did not do anything to me. I just feel sorry for the brothers and sisters of the Wu Nian Academy, I ….. "
"The dead are already dead. Wuming, I should not have said anything about this matter. However, even without Shi Yulan's matter, the Wu Nian Academy's methods of doing things were a bit too vicious. Sooner or later, something bad would have happened. If it was a genuine hatred, then it would have been fine. What's more, this was not a hatred at all. They even killed a few years old children. "Ning Cheng spoke with a sigh.
When he went to the Red Star Sword Faction for revenge, he had taken the initiative to let the cultivators from the Red Star Sword Faction escape. The Wu Nian Academy had exterminated the entire Wu Nian Academy, not even sparing a few years old children. Most importantly, the two sides did not have any deep hatred. Even if Ning Cheng encountered such evil acts, he would not have been able to help himself.
"Wuming, don't think too much about it. I want to tell you one thing. I originally planned to ask you and Lan Ya to ambush Miao Pu. However, I have seen Miao Pu's cultivation; he should at least be in the Undead Realm. If we ambush him, it would not bode well for us. It just so happens that Celestial River King Shang Mou is also in the Revolving Jade City. I suggest that everyone stay in the Bright Gist Resting Pen for this month and not go out casually. As for other things, we can talk about them after the tournament. " Ning Cheng's tone turned even more cautious this time. Now that many things had piled up, in case something happened, none of them would be able to escape.
After thinking about it, Ning Cheng added, "Give me the images of the two cultivators from the arena who plotted against you and Lan Ya."
Jing Wuming raised his hand and drew out the images of the two cultivators, "It's these two fellows. They should not be the people of that Celestial Lord. Most likely, the Celestial Lord had temporarily invited them.
Also, you have to be careful. I'm going into seclusion for a month. From today onwards, I will put aside everything and focus on cultivation. As for the matter with me, Shi Yulan, you don't have to worry about it. Just treat it as someone you just met. The past her and the past me are no longer there. "
After Jing Wuming finished, he slowly turned around and left. As for whether he could really do it or not, only the Heavens knew.
… …
Ning Cheng did not really stay in the room to rest. For a month, he would not cultivate in this place. With his current cultivation speed of absorbing the starry skies' Essence Qi, the progress he could make in a month was negligible.
Therefore, he decided to change his appearance. Elder Sister Shu had taught him the Appearance Changing Technique. Since separating from Lan Shu, Ning Cheng had not seen her again.
With his Appearance Changing Technique, it would be too difficult to cover up in the Revolving Jade City. However, his Spiritual Consciousness was powerful enough that he could use his Spiritual Sense to cover up and change his aura. However, it was only temporary. Therefore, the thing that Ning Cheng wanted to buy the most right now was a mask-type weapon that could cover up one's aura and face.
If not for Shi Yulan, Ning Cheng would never have known about the existence of the Ice Wind Merchant House in the Revolving Jade City. Although the name Ice Wind Merchant House sounded very imposing, it was not a good place. Not to mention that it was located in a remote place, there was only a single broken wooden building.
After Ning Cheng walked into the broken wooden building, he realised that it was quite lively inside. At least eight or nine people crowded inside the small wooden building, looking at a variety of mask-type weapons in the windows of the wooden building. An old man with a thick book in his hand sat behind a dilapidated counter, looking intently at it.
As Ning Cheng came in, no one paid any attention to him. Ning Cheng, like these people, also looked at the mask-type weapons in the windows.
When some of the cultivators who bought the mask-type weapons paid for it, Ning Cheng paid a little attention. A best quality true artefact mask-type weapon cost 500 million Blue Coins. Moreover, a cultivator who bought a low-grade dao artefact mask-type weapon had to pay 20 billion Blue Coins.
Such an expensive price, Ning Cheng thought in his heart, Shi Yulan really did not say anything wrong. In other places, the price of a best quality true artefact ranged from 100 million to 300 million Blue Coins, while a low-grade dao artefact would generally cost around 10 billion Blue Coins. However, this place directly doubled the price.
Ning Cheng looked left and right. Although the people here had already left, he still could not make up his mind.
"If you want to do a big deal, I still have a middle-grade dao artefact here, do you want it? This middle-grade dao artefact has not been refined yet. The first person to refine it, would be able to change their appearance at will. If you are the first person to refine it, then even I would not know that you are wearing a mask-type weapon. "The old man suddenly put down the book in his hand and spoke to Ning Cheng with a smile.
Ning Cheng did not feel excited; he knew that he could not afford to buy a middle-grade dao artefact, "Senior, do you think I look like a customer who can afford a middle-grade dao artefact?"
"You do. If you do not have enough celestial coins, you can exchange it with items. As long as you can come up with something that satisfies me, I will exchange it with you." The old man spoke with certainty.
Ning Cheng thought that this old man should be an Artefact-crafting Master. Artefact-crafting Masters generally had fire-attributed main Spiritual Roots. He also had some Fire Origin Crystals, but he did not know if they would be useful to this fellow.
"How many celestial coins is this middle-grade dao artefact mask-type weapon?" Ning Cheng thought of the Fire Origin Crystals and could not help but ask.
"This dao artefact has some flaws, so I will give you the cheapest price, 10 billion Green Coins." The old man spoke with increasing interest.
Ning Cheng took out a Fire Origin Crystal and spoke, "I don't have that many Green Coins, I only have a piece of Fire Origin Crystal ….."
The old man on seeing the Fire Origin Crystal in Ning Cheng's hand immediately lit up. Not waiting for Ning Cheng to finish his words, he anxiously called out, "Yes, yes, you can use that Fire Origin Crystal to exchange for my mask-type weapon. Today, someone finally came up with something decent ….. "
In his eagerness, the old man even reached out to grab the Fire Origin Crystal in Ning Cheng's hand.
Ning Cheng calmly took back the Fire Origin Crystal and spoke up slowly, "My entire net worth is this piece of Fire Origin Crystal. If I only exchange it for a mask-type weapon, what would I do in the future."
Although he spoke those words, Ning Cheng was cursing in his heart. This old man actually took out a middle-grade dao artefact mask-type weapon just to exchange for something good. It was not what he said at all.
At the same time, Ning Cheng also realised the preciousness of this Fire Origin Crystal. If he had known about it earlier, he would have gotten more of it.
"I can compensate you with some Green Coins, just name a price." The old man turned even more anxious, fearing that Ning Cheng would turn around and leave.
Ning Cheng stretched out his hand and started counting on his fingers, "I need an attack-type weapon, a real Celestial River-class Battleship, a little pocket money, and some good cultivation pills. By the way, I also plan to buy a Immortal Cave in the Revolving Jade City and find a few wives ….. "
The old man's face turned darker and darker as Ning Cheng spoke.
