With that, Jiang Mu left the building and quickly flew towards the merchant association at the end of the long street.
Lu An naturally knew what the second-grade mission Jiang Mu was talking about was. It was written clearly in the information he had received two days ago. This was a very large merchant association. They would often announce missions to the public, including the required materials and materials, and even the bounty. Heaven Tier missions were divided into six grades. Second-grade missions were already very difficult for Heaven Tier cultivators. Once completed, one would be rewarded handsomely.
As for the business partners Jiang Mu mentioned, the merchant association would choose to work with more reliable and efficient merchants for long-term cooperation. Missions would be given to these people first. Especially the more special missions, the fewer people who knew about them, the better. They were not suitable to be announced, so these missions would be carried out by these business partners. And because of the cooperation, these merchants would have a much closer relationship with the merchant association. They would have the opportunity to interact with many of the management personnel of the merchant association, and even the core management personnel.
Lu An's target was not the merchant association, but the true manager of the merchant association, the Jiang Clan.
According to the Fu Clan's information, the Jiang Clan's status in the Spirit Race was not low. They were considered a true first-rate clan. Just like the Huo Clan that had once attacked Lu An, the Jiang Clan's status was basically the same as the Huo Clan. They had several Heavenly King Realm martial artists. But compared to the top-tier clans like the Lu Clan, they were still slightly inferior.
However, there was very little information about a top-tier clan like the Lu Clan, let alone approach them. Forcefully acting would only be more dangerous. Lu An's goal this time was to use the merchant association to gradually get closer to the Jiang Clan and form connections with the core members of the Jiang Clan. And according to the Fu Clan's information, the Jiang Clan seemed to have a very close relationship with the top-tier clans, but it was not clear what kind of relationship it was. More importantly, the information stated that even the Jiang Clan was moving around in the Heavenly Star River, searching for something.
Because of this, as long as he could get in touch with the core members of the Jiang Clan and find out the secret, it would be enough.
This merchant association belonged to the Jiang Clan. Although the Jiang Clan had many merchant associations, this merchant association was one of the larger ones and was very important. If … … the Jiang Clan would really issue missions related to the Heavenly Star River to their business partners, they might be able to find clues about the ninety-thousand-year secret even faster.
However, Lu An didn't have too much hope for this. After all, the secret of ninety thousand years couldn't have been known to everyone. The Spirit Race's various clans must have attached great importance to it.
Lu An didn't stay in the pavilion for long. He immediately left the pavilion and walked into the street.
From here to the Chamber of Commerce at the end of the long street, it would take at least half a quarter of an hour to walk. Because of this, Lu An wanted to walk slowly on the long street.
The reason why he did this was to give himself a gradual process of acceptance.
As a newcomer, Lu An's state of mind wasn't completely stable yet. He needed to calm himself down and assimilate into this Astral city. It was precisely because of this that he had to quickly absorb all the knowledge here, lest he felt as if he had never seen anything before.
Walking out of the pavilion, Lu An raised his head to look at the sky. Sure enough, it was pitch black. Only a few stars were emitting red light.
High up in the sky, there were countless red streams of light in the vast universe. It was these streams of light that illuminated the entire vast universe. Because the red light was everywhere in the vast universe, there was no distinction between day and night on the stars. Everywhere was a dusky red scene. It was even darker than the dawn.
Not only in the vast universe, but even within the stars, there were many faint traces of blood. This was the power of death. Under this light, it was easier for Lu An to hide his eyes and aura.
It had to be said that the aura of the Spirit Galaxy and the Heavenly Star River were completely different … This was a fundamental difference. This meant that the two galaxies were fundamentally different.
This place was truly filled with the power of death. If the people of the Heavenly Star River came here, they wouldn't be able to survive. Very quickly, their consciousness would be affected by the power of death and they would be killed by it. However, Lu An didn't have this problem. He walked on the long street, no different from the other Spirit Race people.
As he walked, Lu An observed the shops on both sides of the long street. He also observed the customs here to see if there was any difference between what he had learned. The facts proved that the information was very accurate. The people on the long street looked very extroverted. Most of them looked very confident, and even a little conceited. Compared to the Sengoku civilization, the people on the long street were obviously much louder in terms of speech, expression, and body movements. They didn't care about trifles. Some people even danced around exaggeratedly.
Different civilizations had different pros and cons. Perhaps it was because he grew up in the Sengoku civilization that Lu An felt that the Sengoku civilization was better.
Lu An walked and stopped. He would randomly enter some shops to observe. Through the actual objects, he confirmed the knowledge he had learned. This made the knowledge more intuitive.
Lu An's clothes were relatively simple. Even so, many people on the street looked at him. It wasn't because Lu An had exposed himself, but because the people on the long street were generally weaker. Celestial Realm cultivators were even rarer. Although Lu An's clothes were simple, one could tell at a glance that they were made of materials that only Celestial Realm cultivators would wear. This meant that Lu An was a Celestial Realm cultivator. Naturally, people would look at him.
Lu An didn't like being stared at. Moreover, with his current personality, he didn't like crowded places. After walking past some shops, he didn't stop. He kept walking toward the merchant association.
He walked to the entrance of the merchant association. Exactly half an hour had passed.
Lu An stood in front of the merchant association. This merchant association was very big. It was a rare four-story building on the long street. It was about a thousand feet long and took up almost half the street. This was enough to show the merchant association's strength.
Lu An didn't stop. He walked in front of the crowd. As soon as Lu An entered, someone saw the new guest. Although this merchant association belonged to the Jiang Clan, they naturally had to be polite when doing business. Moreover, the new guest was a Celestial Realm cultivator. He immediately went up and asked, "What do you need?"
Lu An looked at the person and said according to Jiang Mu's instructions, "I need to complete a second-class mission."
Second-class mission?!
Hearing this, the person was stunned. He was only a Normal Realm cultivator, but he knew what a second-class mission meant. He immediately said, "Please follow me!"
Immediately, the person led Lu An to the top of the building. Soon, the two arrived at the second floor. They walked into a long corridor and finally stopped in front of a room.
The door of the room was open. The person inside was Jiang Mu.
"Supervisor." The person immediately reported to Jiang Mu, "This friend said he completed a second-class mission!"
"Oh?" Jiang Mu's expression was obviously delighted. He immediately stood up and said, "Please come in!"
His acting ability was very strong. Lu An couldn't see any flaws in his words or expressions. If the two hadn't just met, even Lu An would have been fooled.
"You can leave," Jiang Mu said to the person.
"Yes."
The person left. Lu An entered the room with Jiang Mu and sat on the side. Gao Mu quickly took out two items from his interspatial ring. One was a mission paper with the mission's content written on it. The other one was a rock, a very precious ore.
Lu An took the paper and quickly looked at the mission. It was to find an extremely rare ore. Lu An had seen this ore in his studies before. He knew its characteristics. It was obvious that Jiang Mu wanted him to remember this second-class mission so that he wouldn't have any flaws.
Then, Jiang Mu picked up the ore on the table and exclaimed, "This Tomorrow Night Stone is really beautiful. It's a top quality item!"
As he spoke, Jiang Mu took out three brocade boxes from his interspatial ring and said, "These are your rewards. Oh right, may I know your name?"
"Chu Xing," Lu An said.
"So it's brother Chu!" Jiang Mu smiled and said, "I see that brother Chu is a talented person with great strength. You can also obtain this Tomorrow Night Stone. Are you interested in cooperating with my company? That way, you can receive more missions. If brother Chu can receive more rewards, our company can also receive more resources. Isn't that wonderful? "
"… …"
Lu An frowned slightly. He didn't immediately answer. Instead, he fell into deep thought.
Jiang Mu was clearly startled. He then said, "If you cooperate with us, we can help you if you have any difficulties in the future. Whatever you want to trade will be much cheaper. Are you not tempted?"
"… …"
Lu An looked at Jiang Mu. After a few breaths, he finally said, "Okay."
