Chapter 153: The Market Is Full of Opportunities!
At the foot of Mount Taiyin, Jianglu and Lou Hongzhi flew over slowly.
In order not to be detected by the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets’ flying boat, they deliberately slowed down.
After seeing the approximate landing location of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets’ flying boat, they stopped their pursuit.
It was near the Grand Moon Sect.
After the two arrived near Mount Taiyin, they began to look for that Senior expert.
Not long after, the two met.
Jianglu said to Lou Hongzhi, “Over there, I have already inquired clearly. The person holding the calligraphy piece is the Young Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, Yu Hongye. She is quite famous in the Southern Territory. It is very easy to find her.”
Lou Hongzhi snorted coldly.
“The most important thing is not to find the person holding the calligraphy piece, but to find the person who wrote it.”
“I know, but it’s easier to follow the map.”
Jianglu smiled bitterly and continued:
“Such a big shot can not be found immediately. Would that big shot find a small house to live in?”
“This kind of thing can only be done slowly, not in a hurry.”
“How about this, you accompany me to confirm the matter of the Sun and Moon Chessboard first, then I will accompany you to find that big shot?”
Lou Hongzhi also didn’t know how to search for people, so he could only nod and reply:
“Okay, I’ll go with you.”
When they arrived at the Grand Moon Sect, the two stopped.
Jianglu muttered, “I didn’t expect that this small Mount Taiyin actually had a rather large-scale sect.”
“Brother Lou, do you want to go play?”
Lou Hongzhi decisively refused. “I am only interested in that Lord’s Sword Dao now. I don’t have time to waste here. If you want to play, you can play here by yourself. I won’t waste time with you.”
“Okay. I won’t go. It’s just a small sect. There’s really no need to waste time here.”
Jianglu took out a compa.s.s-shaped magic treasure.
“Previously, I recorded the aura of the Sun and Moon Chessboard. With this compa.s.s, I can find the position of the Sun and Moon Chessboard.”
Jianglu observed the reaction of the compa.s.s.
“I didn’t expect that Senior to still be there!”
“Brother Lou, I found it. It’s nearby. How about this, I’ll accompany you to find the peerless expert who wrote the poem.”
“Okay. There’s a market ahead. Let’s go there and take a look.”
Not long after the two entered the market, Jianglu suddenly found that Lou Hongzhi, who was beside him, had disappeared.
Jianglu was very helpless.
“Really, it’s always like this. He always disappears.”
He could only look for Lou Hongzhi first.
In the end, he found Lou Hongzhi, who was in a daze, at the door of a tavern.
“Brother Lou, are you tempted by the food and wine in the Mortal World?”
Jianglu teased Lou Hongzhi while patting Lou Hongzhi’s shoulder. In the end, he was bounced back by the sharp Sword Qi.
Jianglu was so shocked that he took a few steps back and almost took out his protective magic treasure.
Jianglu used his spiritual sense and found that Lou Hongzhi was surrounded by a mysterious Daoist charm. There were many invisible Sword Intents hidden around him that could not be seen by the naked eye.
Jianglu widened his eyes and exclaimed,
“Is this an epiphany?”
Jianglu was puzzled.
d.a.m.n, could it be that Lou Hongzhi’s reflection was too long?
He had been comprehending the Sword Intent in the calligraphy in Startling Rainbow Valley, and now he had just comprehended it?
Although Jianglu was speechless in his heart, he was still very reliable.
He hurriedly cast a few hidden restrictions to prevent the surrounding people from disturbing Lou Hongzhi.
Then, he took out a small array disk from his storage bracelet and set up a protective array around it to prevent Lou Hongzhi’s Sword Intent or Sword Qi from leaking out and injuring the surrounding mortals.
Countless Sword Qi surged out from Lou Hongzhi’s body.
As a sword cultivator, Lou Hongzhi’s strength was stronger than Jianglu’s. Now that he had an epiphany and his strength had increased again, the Sword Qi that he unintentionally released was very violent.
Jianglu set up a few more array plates and used all his methods to barely hold on.
Just when Jianglu was about to be unable to hold on any longer, Lou Hongzhi’s sword aura suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Lou Hongzhi’s eyes looked very dull and confused.
Jiangliu let out a long breath.
“Lou Hongzhi, congratulations on your breakthrough in the way of the sword, but you almost ruined my precious disk array. Aren’t you going to make it up to me?”
Lou Hongzhi didn’t seem to hear Jiangliu’s words, and his eyes had recovered.
Lou Hongzhi shouted, “I found it, I found it, it’s around here!”
Jianglu was speechless.
“Brother Lou, what did you find?”
Lou Hongzhi did not speak. He looked in a direction silently.
Jianglu followed his gaze. In just a moment, his eyes widened.
It was unbelievable.
On the signboard of the pub was written:
Grand Moon Restaurant.
The three words were the same as the calligraphy that they had seen before.
At first glance, it was plain and unremarkable. They didn’t even notice the existence of the signboard. However, upon closer inspection, they could see traces of Daoist charm flowing around the signboard.
There was the way of the sword and the way of the chess.
It was clearly the same aura as the shocking sword intent that they had seen in the shocking Startling Rainbow Valley.
“Could it be that this signboard was written by that Lord?”
Jianglu’s mind was shaken. He finally understood why Lou Hongzhi had inexplicably fallen into an epiphany in the busy city.
So it was not because his reflexes were too long, but because he had encountered a supreme opportunity.
“That’s right, Brother Jiang, take a look at that place again.”
Lou Hongzhi’s eyes were burning. He turned around and pointed in another direction.
Jianglu looked in the direction that Lou Hongzhi was pointing at.
He saw that the streets of this market city were filled with secular shops.
There was a signboard hanging on every shop. The words on the signboard were all the same as what he had seen just now.
They were emitting a trace of Daoist charm and also contained a sharp Sword Intent.
The streets were filled with supreme words.
This scene shocked Jianglu.
Lou Hongzhi’s expression was also very excited.
“Hiss.”
Jianglu sucked in a breath of cold air.
His expression was frightened, and he did not know what to say.
Lou Hongzhi was so excited that he could not speak.
After holding it in for a long time, Lou Hongzhi finally let out a long howl.
“It really surprised me. I did not expect that the fortuitous opportunity that I had painstakingly searched for for a long time in the Southern Territory would actually be everywhere in this small market city.”
When Jianglu heard Lou Hongzhi’s words, he seemed to have remembered something.
He stroked his chin thoughtfully.
Suddenly, Jianglu seemed to have remembered something. He slapped his forehead and took out his compa.s.s.
The compa.s.s, which was very dim before, was now shining.
The Lord was nearby, and the Sun and Moon Chessboard was also there!
How could there be such a coincidence?
Jianglu wiped his eyes.
He was not mistaken.
Could it be that the Senior who owned the Sun and Moon Chessboard was the same person as the owner of the astonishing calligraphy piece he saw in Startling Rainbow Valley?
This was a very important discovery!
The more he thought about it, the more shocked Jianglu became.
This was simply too much of a coincidence. It was so coincidental that Jianglu suspected that he had been lured here by someone.
