Chapter 493 Not to Offend
The poisonous insect method was extensive and profound. If Xuan An was asked to learn all the content of the method, it would take a very long time and delay his practice. So, Su Li only taught him the control method.
After several failures, Xuan An took control of the Poisonous Power Insect basically in just half a day. He was glad when he felt that the power in his body was increasing rapidly.
Later, Su Li set out with Xuan An again and killed several poisonous insect demons to feed the Poisonous Power Insect. And some of them were killed by Xuan An with the Poisonous Power Insect.
Although they obtained many poisonous insect tones, none of poisonous cultivation insects that was comparable to the Poisonous Power Insect was found. Besides, it was troublesome to feed those poisonous cultivation insects, so Su Li discarded them.
Over one month past, Su Li searched all the places in the White Stone Relics where poisonous insects might exit, and obtained a lot. She got nearly 3,000 Mushui spiritual jades, which were almost the most she could obtained.
Su Li once tried to get close to the center of the White Stone Relics. But she gave it up when she sensed a frightening pneuma.
In this life, she didn’t intend to embark on Poisonous Insect Cultivation, and there was no need to make trouble for herself.
“Senior Sister Apprentice, are you going to leave now?”
In the front of the gate of Bais.h.i.+ City, Xuan An looked at Su Li sadly. Qiu Zhen and other people watched them from a distance and did not dare to approach.
Su Li smiled frankly, “Even the best of friends must part at some point. You should go back and have a look after leaving so long time. If we could meet again, I will come on a visit to your Jiguang Sect in person. At that time, don’t disappoint me with your cultivation.”
“I will be certain to practice hard!”
Xuan An responded with a firm voice, while he felt painful in his heart. He knew that Su Li just brushed him off. As for when they would see each other, n.o.body knew.
He rolled his eyes and said suddenly, “Senior Sister Apprentice… can you give me a carrier rune? I will not bother you at ordinary times. If I were in trouble that even my parents couldn’t deal with, I could have…”
Su Li curled her eyes and looked at Xuan An with a faint smile. She didn’t take out a carrier rune until she saw his blushes. She placed it in Xuan An’s palm and said with a smile, “It can only be used for three times.”
“Huh? Three times?”
Xuan An gave a sad face. Then he saw her beautiful image in front of him suddenly drifting away like a cloud, and only her voice rang in his ears.
“We will meet again if we are destined to meet.”
Xuan An stretched out his hands forward and grabbed nothing. He muttered to himself with wistful eyes, “Senior Sister Apprentice…”
“Young Lord, it’s time to go back.”
Qiu Zhen came up and said in a low voice, with fixed feeling in his heart. It was only one month since he left. However, the young lord had reached the Yuanying Realm under the guidance of the mysterious female cultivator.
A few minutes later, Xuan An hid the sadness on his face and regained the dandiacal state, but there was a little more firmness in his eyes.
“OK, let’s go back. I want to practice as quickly as possible!”
Qiu Zhen felt relieved when he heard it, “If the Lord heard it, he must be very happy.”
No one could foresee that the young lord should get rid of the dislike of cultivation in such a coincidence. Although Qiu Zhen knew in his heart that the purpose of Xuan An to practice was to catch up with the female cultivator of evil circle. But as long as Xuan An became stronger, the reason behind that was not important.
Whoos.h.!.+
The advanced spiritual boat carved with the seal of the Jiguang Sect flew into the nothingness and gradually disappeared into the sky.
With a sudden flash. Su Li’s figure reappeared in front of the empty gate of Bais.h.i.+ City. She raised her head and glanced at the horizon quietly. Then she raised herself on tiptoe and flew away like an arrow at once.
…
Tianyi City.
It was the most prosperous cultivation city under the control of the Tianyin Tribe, the holy sect of Jiuli Region. The largest Huangxing Chamber of Commerce in Jiuli Region had been built for thousands of years. The cultivation transactions were extremely popular here.
On this day, in front of the extremely high gate of Tianyi City formed a long line as usual. There were some pract.i.tioners, who just came out to see the world, marveled at the high gate tower.
On a notice board on the side of the city gate, a few golden letters glittered.
“People who do not reach the Jindan Realm are not allowed to enter!”
At the front of the line, a female cultivator dressed in white blended into them, looking normal and unremarkable.
It was just Su Li. If she wanted other spiritual jades except the Mushui spiritual jade, Huangxing Chamber of Commerce would be a useful channel for her. Furthermore, the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce in Tianyi City was the best choice.
After she glanced at the notice board, she thought in her heart that the pract.i.tioners, who could consider mainstays in the Jiuzhou Region, just meet the criteria for entering the Tianyi City.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd. Su Li looked back and saw a huge golden jade landau floating down from the sky, with the white tulle flying in the wind and the flames flowing under the wheels, like a fairy vehicle.
“Disciples of the Tianyin Tribe come back!”
“Gos.h.!.+ I can see the proud talents of Jiuli Region with my own eyes in my life!”
“It is a rewarding trip!”
“I’m so lucky! Today, with the blessing of these disciples, I will immediately go back to practice in isolation to make a breakthrough.”
“…”
People were discussing, and Su Li also pretended to be excited like others. But her eyes showed the soberness clearly. She coldly looked at the huge jade landau floating into the city from the sky and frowned slightly.
There were dozens of pneumas in the jade landau. Their cultivations were extremely high, and none of them was lower than the Yuanying Realm. Two of the pneumas even reached the Huashen Realm.
The Huashen Realm meant nothing to her, so she didn’t care it. What she really cared about were the pneumas of the two disciples in Huashen Realm, which reminded her of two old friends.
Tianyin Tribe…
“Hey! It’s you. What are you thinking about? Do you still want to enter the city?”
The guard’s irritable voice came into Su Li’s ears. Then she came back to earth and gave an apologetic smile. The guard was slightly shocked.
This normal female cultivator looked so beautiful when she smiled.
While he was stunned, Su Li had already taken the rune for entering the city from his hand, and disappeared into the big tactical matrix for protecting the city, which made him regretful.
After Su Li entered the city, it was bustling and noisy.
In her eyes, Tianyi City was similar to other cultivation cities. The differences were only that the roads were wider, houses were magnificent, and the cultivations of pract.i.tioners were higher.
For example, the street was flat and wide, which could accommodate dozens of pract.i.tioners walking side by side. From time to time, she could see powerful pract.i.tioners sitting on the backs of monsters pa.s.sing by. There were no pract.i.tioners who set up stalls on both sides of the street. There were only exquisitely decorated pavilions and stores.
Su Li asked for the specific location of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce to a casual pract.i.tioner, and went there immediately.
In a while, a nine-floor pavilion located at the corner of the center street came into her eyes. The letters, “Huangxing Chamber of Commerce”, on it was edged with purple gold, which was gorgeous and incorruptible.
“The Huangxing Chamber of Commerce was very rich. Little Su Li, don’t you consider going to the Huangxing Palace? There are all things you could wish for!”
Black Lotus looked at the gate of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce. His eyes were s.h.i.+ning with excitement. He lapsed back into his old ways again, and desperately urged Su Li to stole something.
Su Li applied the isolation matrix on the surface of the Black Lotus Ring readily, and stepped into the gate of the pavilion. A cold and fragrant breath embraced her.
At the same time, one of handsome male cultivators in indigo clothes beside the gate came out and stood upright in front of Su Li. He said with a gentle and polite smile, “Excuse me, what can I do for you? I am Qing s.h.i.+’er. I can lead the way for you.”
Su Li tilted her head and glanced at the female cultivators in pink clothes on the other side of the gate indifferently. She just nodded and said, “Take me to see the Mu spiritual jades with the Five Elements, except for the Mushui spiritual jade.”
When Qing s.h.i.+’er heard it, his eyes brightened immediately. He guided, “This way, please!”
Although the rest Mu spiritual jades with Four Elements was not as precious as Mushui spiritual jade, there were still valuable. If he could make a deal with her, he would not worry about his cultivation resources this month any more.
Thinking of this, he pretended to turn around in a casual way and quietly glanced at Su Li, who was younger than him. He envied in his heart.
Different people had different fates.
Some people were born in wealth families, and didn’t need to worry about cultivation resources at all. However, people who were born in poverty like them had to rely on themselves to obtain the cultivation resources. Only by doing their best in the Chamber of Commerce could they get meager income and advance their cultivations, and their future was ambiguous and worrisome.
“Are we there?”
Su Li suddenly asked. Qing s.h.i.+’er was shocked and said, “Nearly there. Just ahead.”
He didn’t dare to think more or show any emotions. Compared with those desperate casual pract.i.tioners, he was lucky enough. After all, he had a good look and could work in the safest place, Huangxing Chamber of Commerce.
Certainly, Su Li did not know the thoughts of such n.o.bodies like Qing s.h.i.+’er. As soon as she stepped into the branch pavilion, she saw rows of transparent counters made of crystal for sealing spiritual jades. Rows of rare spiritual stones and spiritual jades in great variety were placed in the counter.
Beside the counter, there were several servers whose ident.i.ties were same as Qing s.h.i.+’er. They humbly made an introduction for the pract.i.tioners who either dressed in rich or looked cold and arrogant.
After Su Li walked to the counter and glanced at the jades and stones, she nodded in satisfaction and pointed at one of the fiery-red spiritual jades, “Very good. Show me the Muhuo spiritual jade.”
As soon as she said it, an expression of embarra.s.sment appeared on Qing s.h.i.+’er’s face, “Our Huangxing Chamber of Commerce has regulations that…”
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by sweet giggles suddenly.
“Hahaha, a hick! How dare you come to the Tianzi Side Hall without knowing the regulations of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce? Yutian, the threshold for your Huangxing Chamber of Commerce is too low, right?”
Her voice was not loud, but all those present, who were in great cultivation and could hear and see well, heard it clearly. They all cast their eyes on the woman.
After taking a look, many people changed their faces slightly, and took pity on Su Li.
Why was this playboy also here?
In front of the counter near Su Li, there was a slender and graceful female pract.i.tioner with a fine feature snuggling up to a young man with a pale face. Her eyes were full of temptation.
While speaking those words, the female pract.i.tioner straightened up from the young man’s arms. Her eyes made the male cultivators beside her erotic and made the female cultivators frowned.
That woman…was the famous s.l.u.t in Tianyin Tribe, Yin Jiaojiao.
Su Li glanced at the two people. Then she returned her gaze to Muhuo spiritual jade and asked Qing s.h.i.+’er, “What is the regulations of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce?”
Qing s.h.i.+’er’s face paled and his lips trembled. He quickly transmitted the sound in silence, “You’d better go! Yin Mingyu is the only son of the First Elder of the branch of Chamber of Commerce in Jiuli Region, so you must not offend him!”
