Lou Xiaoyi decided to let nature take its course. He would investigate the Green Vine Chamber of Commerce to the best of his ability in the exile for several years to strengthen the persuasiveness of his future statements. Then, no matter the result or not, he would tell Nan Zhenren everything after returning to the Blue Sky Sect, except for the question about fate.
This was the biggest difficulty! In fact, if he didn't care about fate, he didn't know how to talk to the higher-ups about his feelings. Could he just rely on his sixth sense?
He needed to think of a good excuse, a good way, and a good starting point to reveal everything that happened in the Five Rings and Blue Sky! If it really didn't work, he wouldn't hesitate to expose his own fate!
This was a great sublimation of his state of mind!
He already regarded Xuanyuan as his home, the Blue Sky Mountain as his ancestral home, and the Five Rings as his handsome horse that roamed the universe …
Most importantly, he didn't think anything would happen to him if he lost his fate! He had the stars! He had the five elements! There would be more and more of these things in the future! So what if he didn't have the fate in his mind? Wouldn't it be him? Wouldn't it be invincible? Wouldn't it be able to beat the heroes?
Everything had to go with the flow! He had to make the right decision at the right time! It couldn't be said that he was just wasting time and opportunities before! No one was an immortal, and it was impossible to know the heaven and earth. He had to find the abnormalities and patterns in the scattered events that happened continuously before he could make a judgment!
Then, now that he had made a basic judgment, he only needed to investigate the Green Vine Chamber of Commerce!
This wouldn't take much time, just a few years. He could feel that the conspiracy about fate had been going on for hundreds of years, and it might continue for a long time in the future!
To move against a domain like the Five Rings Blue Sky, it wasn't something that could be decided and set off on a whim! This required a long time to prepare, at least hundreds of years, and possibly thousands of years. Then, in order to better convince the elders, he naturally needed more evidence!
Without the fate, it would be difficult for others to understand his feelings. How to make them believe him was a problem! If he was a half-immortal, all of this wouldn't be a problem, but he was just a small Jin Dan, and a newcomer who hadn't even formed his Gold Core for a hundred years. Who would believe that he could predict a crisis that affected the universe?
His hair wasn't even fully grown, and he hadn't even gone out alone in the universe. This kind of situation really made people feel helpless!
If he wanted to investigate the Green Vine Merchant Guild, he would inevitably need to follow them, investigate them, and spy on them. There were countless members in the Green Vine Merchant Guild. How could he find the key people and clues? It was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Moreover, this was very contradictory to his cultivation plan!
At a time like this, he did not choose to focus on his personal cultivation. Instead, he chose to consider the big picture. At this moment, he had truly matured into a qualified Xuanyuan Swordsman.
And growth came at a price!
Over the past year, he had become familiar with the details of the Green Vine Chamber of Commerce. He also had a general understanding of the position of people like Fatty He in the Chamber of Commerce. It was probably the concept of a professional manager in the future, who was responsible for the operation. The real decision-makers of the Chamber of Commerce were the big bosses standing behind the scenes, including the top families in the exile, the big sects, and even the Heaven-defying Sect!
At this point, he was somewhat unable to continue his investigation. Because what he was about to face was no longer a mere Jin Dan, but more of the high and mighty Yuanying cultivators! In terms of combat strength, he was not afraid of these so-called Yuanying cultivators. What kind of powerful characters could hide in the exile?
His state of mind was not good enough! But now, he was investigating and not fighting. In terms of playing mind games, it was difficult for him to compete with those old foxes!
A year later, the exhausted Lou Xiaoyi returned to Ginzhou City once again. He was just passing by, and not because this city had any special meaning. He intended to rest here for a period of time, and then decide whether to follow his original plan of cultivating to the middle stage of Jin Dan before returning to Mount Yi. Or directly return home, and completely push this troublesome matter that involved too much of his energy to the sect?
There were so many Perfected and Perfected Cultivators, and each of them was extremely capable and cunning. It did not make sense that the burden of the sect would be placed on the shoulders of a mere Jin Dan!
In the evening, he found the most ordinary tavern in the city to drown his sorrows in alcohol. In this past year, his alcohol tolerance had increased. Stress could turn a boy into a man, and it could also turn a normal person into an alcoholic. There were no true alcoholics among the cultivators, because they could not get drunk. However, it had become normal for them to not leave their teapot. That was the way they vented their frustrations after everything went wrong. There were some things that no one could talk about, and no one could listen to!
A tall and mighty old man led a cute young lady into the tavern. The two of them came to his table and respectfully bowed to him. The young lady, in particular, bowed to him with the etiquette of a grand master.
Huang Ju was not surprised by the difference in the person in front of him compared to a year ago. Unusual people did unusual things, and it was not easy to pry into the private affairs of a capable person. He only did what he was supposed to do.
"Envoy! This child, Xiao Ya, has already finished her preparations and is about to set off for Mount Yi. By chance, she found traces of you in the city, and wanted to ask if you have anything to tell her? Xiao Ya is also on the way … "
Lou Xiaoyi nodded, not knowing what to say. The atmosphere became very awkward. Huang Ju was shrewd and ruthless, and Lou Xiaoyi was absent-minded … Only the bored Huang Xiao Ya was looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar person, who was both a villain and a benefactor …
He was completely different from before! What exactly had he gone through? He used to be such a sunny young man, a handsome Swordsman who could not be distinguished if thrown into the crowd. Now, his beard was unkempt, his hair was messy, his clothes were dusty, and he drank a cup of wine every time. It made people …
Of course, she did not know that this was deliberately done by Lou Xiaoyi to disguise himself. Otherwise, if a Foundation Establishment cultivator could maintain a clean appearance at any time, there was no reason that Jin Dan could not do the same.
In the land of exile, who could make him like this? With the sharpness of his sword, he might not even care about those Yuanying ancestors, right?
She did not know. She only knew that if this guy came to ask her about her aunt's whereabouts, she would most likely not refuse. She did not know why, but her mood was complicated, so complicated that it hurt a little.
The highest realm of chasing a girl was desolate, mysterious, powerful, and melancholy … Desolation could close the gap between the two sides. Mystery could make people want to find out, especially for a girl who was not deeply involved. Strength could make people feel that they could rely on her. Melancholy could stir up the motherly light in the depths of a girl's heart …
Huang Xiao Ya really wanted to do something for him, but she did not know how to say it! The difference in strength between them was so great that it could be said that it was like heaven and earth. What could she really do?
Suddenly, Lou Xiaoyi raised his head and looked at her quietly. "Can you do something for me?"
Huang Xiao Ya nodded firmly, as if she was using her life to make a promise. "Okay!"
