“No, it’s a very distant place, and I can’t say it clearly for a while.” Ning Cheng really did not know how to explain to Lan Shu.
Lan Shu said unconcernedly, “Then let’s talk about it later, let’s ……”
Lan Shu’s words came to a screeching halt while pulling Ning Cheng back. Ning Cheng stopped and looked at Lan Shu in confusion, but found that there was some fear in Lan Shu’s eyes.
He subconsciously glanced along the place where Lan Shu had just looked over, the busy street in front of him was filled with people coming and going, and there didn’t seem to be anything special.
“Sister Shu, what’s wrong?” Ning Cheng asked with a careful voice transmission.
Lan Shu once again looked at the street in front of him, then quickly said, “Ning Cheng, let’s go back first, we won’t go to the auction, then you can go to the Weapon Pavilion yourself to purchase an axe.”
Knowing that Lan Shu must have seen something, Ning Cheng nodded his head hastily and quickly returned to Dragon Phoenix Academy after Lan Shu.
The two of them once again returned inside Lan Shu’s house, and only after Lan Shu had opened all the formations did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Ning Cheng was just about to ask what was going on when he heard a voice from outside, ”Longfeng Academy Qu Yingguang has met Senior Sister Shu, and at the same time asked to teach Senior Sister Shu one thing. A few days ago, a cultivator was nailed to death in the main square of my Dragon Phoenix Academy, may I ask if it was Senior Sister Shu who did it?”
“Don’t find me here for anything in the future.” Lan Shu’s tone was emotionless, completely devoid of the softness of speaking with Ning Cheng, and without any semblance of answering the other party.
“Yes, Qu Yingguang bids farewell.” With these words, no more sounds came from outside. It seemed that the person who had asked had already received an answer.
Lan Shu did not take Qu Yingguang’s visit to heart at all, and still said with some residual fear, “Just now I saw a demon in the street, I don’t know his name, but I’m sure he’s one of the most terrifying demons I’ve ever seen.”
Before Ning Cheng could ask, Lan Shu suddenly looked at Ning Cheng and asked, “Ning Cheng, there was a very tall man with a pale face on the street earlier, did you see him?”
Hearing Lan Shu talk about this feature, Ning Cheng immediately remembered and then said, “Yes, Sister Shu, I saw a man like that, his cultivation level seemed to be very high.”
At that time, when he saw Lan Shu’s tone come to a screeching halt, he deliberately paid attention to the opposite street. Although people were coming and going, the pale man he still had an impression of.
“In the future, when you see this man, let as far away as you can, no one knows how terrifying he is, while I saw it with my own eyes ……” Lan Shu’s voice softened quite a bit, but that scornful tone Ning Cheng could still feel.
“There was originally a sect in Le Continent called the Displaced Sect, the Displaced Sect was founded by a female cultivator who had been abandoned by the sect, and the entire sect was full of female cultivators. The Displaced Sect was not very big in Le Continent, and it was also a six-star sect. This six-star sect was single-handedly destroyed by that person ……,” Lan Shu said as she spoke of this, seemingly remembering the scene back then, with some fear still in her eyes.
Ning Cheng was somewhat puzzled in his heart, Lan Shu was able to kill the male cultivator who had offended her and hang him at the entrance of Longfeng Academy, that meant she was not a timid person, what could have made her look this way?
“He’s not human, he’s a complete devil. Apart from leaving a little girl behind, he killed all the female cultivators of the Displaced Sect. He collected up the blood of these female cultivators and went on to humiliate the corpses one by one, he was simply a beast ……,” Lan Shu’s seemed to recall the horrible bloody scenes back then.
Ning Cheng hurriedly said, “Sister Shu ……”
Lan Shu came back to her senses, her face looked better, nodded to Ning Cheng and continued, “I happened to be hiding outside the Displaced Gate, originally I wanted to go to the Displaced Gate for some things, but I saw such a bloody scene. But when I learned the reason why that devil exterminated the entire sect of the Displaced Sect, I couldn’t even believe it.
He killed all the people of the Displaced Sect, but left behind a little girl who was only about ten years old. As he was leaving, he lifted this little girl up and said, “Little thing, do you know what happens when you call me ugly? After saying that he took out a sharp knife and plunged it into the little girl’s heart, then threw the little girl straight down into the depths of the mountain stream ……”
“That beast.” Ning Cheng clenched his fist, if he could finish this guy off, he would immediately go and do it to finish him off.
Lan Shu’s heart seemed to ease slightly after she told him about the incident, “Ning Cheng, I can’t see through this person’s cultivation level, I guess it’s already above the Sea Breaking Realm. I was near the Displaced Gate and I couldn’t calm down in the face of this demon, in order to avoid this demon finding out that something was wrong, I deliberately brought you back. If you have the chance to kill him in the future, remember to help the Displaced Sect take revenge by killing this beast ……”
Lan Shu did not say anything about her relationship with the Displaced Sect, but Ning Cheng had already vaguely guessed that Lan Shu had some relationship with the Displaced Sect. This kind of non-human beast, even if Lan Shu didn’t say anything, Ning Cheng would finish that beast off when he had the strength.
“Sister Shu, don’t worry, I will definitely kill this person when I have the strength in the future.” Ning Cheng said with certainty.
Lan Shu nodded, “Ning Cheng, you have the Taixu True Devil Axe, now you follow me and learn the disguise technique. Remember, don’t rush to come out inside the Rule Road, some people stay inside to advance their Yuan Souls before they come out this way, you don’t need to rush either. The rules of heaven and earth inside the Rule Road are complete, and it is the most suitable place to cultivate and comprehend the dao rhythms of various spells. Once you understand the true meaning of the rules of heaven and earth within it, you will also get half the work done when you cultivate in the future, and your spells will be more perfect and powerful than others.”
……
The day before the Rule Road was about to open, Ning Cheng bid farewell to Lan Shu, he was going to purchase an attack spirit weapon, and if there was a defensive magic treasure, he also intended to purchase one.
Lan Shu did not send Ning Cheng off, she knew that the leaders going to the Rule Road were full of people with higher cultivation than her. Her cultivation level at the early stage of God Shaping, even if she had a disguise technique, she would easily be discovered.
The Spiritual Treasure House was not famous in Longfeng City, but it was not small either, but many cultivators in Longfeng City liked to go to the Spiritual Treasure House. The main reason is that the Spiritual Treasure House has a complete range of magic treasures and the prices are relatively cheap.
Ning Cheng was currently at the Spiritual Treasure Building, he had wanted to purchase an axe, but he was attracted to a long spear instead. The lance was merely a medium-grade spirit weapon, with a black body that looked extremely comfortable, much better looking than his Taixu True Devil Axe, and the word ‘Broken Xuan’ was engraved at the end of the lance. Moreover, the price tag was no pressure for Ning Cheng, just 300,000 top grade spirit stones.
Ning Cheng directly took out three hundred thousand spirit stones to purchase the spear, and when the fellow of the Spiritual Treasure House saw that Ning Cheng was extremely quick to purchase things, he immediately knew that Ning Cheng was a rich master. After he extremely thoughtfully wrapped the lance to Ning Cheng, he then enthusiastically introduced it, “The Spiritual Treasure House is currently holding an exhibition of defensive magic treasures, this friend can go take a look if he is interested.”
“Where is it?” Ning Cheng was looking to purchase a defensive magic treasure, and now that this fellow had taken the initiative to introduce it, he immediately asked.
“It’s upstairs.” The fellow pointed to the staircase, which had many cultivators coming and going.
Ning Cheng hurriedly thanked him and quickened his pace to go up the stairs.
Once he reached the upper floor, Ning Cheng saw the spacious hall with all sorts of defensive magic treasures, and knew that he had come to the right place.
The first thing he noticed was a tripod treasure, which had the words ‘Qiankun Tripod’ engraved on the outside of it, and its appearance was extremely appealing. Ning Cheng liked this Qiankun Tripod, not only because he liked its appearance, but also because in the ancient Chinese legends, the Tripod was used by Old Master Hongjun, and it was also made of chaotic treasures.
Ning Cheng knew that this was only a legend on Earth, and he also knew that the Qiankun Tripod in front of him was not the one he was thinking of, but he still wanted to buy this Qiankun Tripod.
There were many defensive magic treasures here, and there were quite a few cultivators crowded outside to watch. Ning Cheng managed to squeeze in front of the Qiankun Tripod with great difficulty and pointed at it, saying loudly, “Boss, I’ll take this tripod.”
This Qiankun Cauldron was a top-grade defensive magic treasure, and the price was 800,000 top-grade spirit stones, a price that was within Ning Cheng’s affordability.
“I have long since taken a fancy to this Qiankun Cauldron, I will take it.” Another voice resounded beside Ning Cheng, obviously having his eye on the same thing as Ning Cheng.
