Chapter 104 - Shadowless
Edited by NZRose
After changing his clothes, Big Miss took out a box of red and purple lip rouge, and smeared it on his lips. She also hooked the corners of his eyes. He became a perfect evil witch girl with the charm of a fairy enchantress.
Guided by the Phoenix b.u.t.terfly, they saw the man in black, who they suspected to be Yue Ruohe, walking in this wide underground s.p.a.ce. Occasionally, they stopped to see the living corpses in the iron cages, but they did not linger and went all the way through the fragments of ghosts and shadows; it was like h.e.l.l on earth.
Then, after pa.s.sing through a short corridor, the lights here were brighter and there were more people.
The walls were hollowed out into grids of various sizes, most of which were not empty—it was somewhat similar to the chests of the Academy’s Treasure Pavilion. Under the grids where things were placed, a bronze medal was hung on each.
“Firstborn demon milk, one hundred taels of gold, or three taels of pearls and stamens.”
“Emotional Gu worm, forty taels of gold, or Gu refining materials of the same price.”
There were also some grids with silver coins and the bronze medal with the names of materials they wanted to buy.
——Obviously, the place just now was where the living corpses were sold, and this place is where the goods are traded.
The sorcerers of Northern Xia also needed cultivation materials for cultivation; especially those weird corpse refining and Gu techniques. The conditions were very demanding and required a lot of materials to support them. If you lack any material, you can put money here to buy it. If you have something you don’t need, you can also put it here to sell, or barter it.
So, did this black-robed man come here to buy something? Or to sell something?
They continued to observe and found that this person would stop for a while in front of almost every grid with something, check the items in the grid, and then walk away.
——He didn’t buy or sell. He just looked at the stuff.
Ling Fengxiao said in a low voice, “He’s looking for something.”
Seeing that the man had seen almost everything, Ling Fengxiao came forward with Lin Shu.
“My Lord.” Ling Fengxiao asked: “What are you looking for? Maybe we can help.”
The man said nothing.
Ling Fengxiao said with a smile: “Are you shy?”
The man turned his head hard, continued to see the things on the grid, and ignored them.
Lin Shu looked around and saw that many witches and wizards had turned their eyes on this place, especially on himself and Ling Fengxiao.
Because he had a bad experience in his previous life, he was very keen on this kind of naked and malicious gazes, and immediately realized that these sorcerers were looking at them with a kind of obscene and malicious att.i.tude.
It could be seen that a beautiful face, no matter where it was placed, would bring disaster.
In the night market, he really realized how black the crows in the world can be.
If Big Miss has no martial arts, or the Phoenix Mountain Villa has no power, I’m afraid there will be more sc.u.m left in this dirty and ugly world.
However, in other words, if there were no great power and martial arts, there would not be such an arrogant and domineering Big Miss.
Lin Shu: “…”
He realized that his mind was wandering again, and quickly pulled his thoughts back to observe the man in black.
The man in Black said to Ling Fengxiao: “I have something else important to do. Goodbye.”
“Oh?” Ling Fengxiao said: “Sir, why don’t you give me your residence? My sister and I will visit you tomorrow.”
The words were very appealing, and the tone was very gentle.
The other sorcerers had cast a look at the man in black as if wondering what was so special about him that he could be favored by such beauties.
But the man in black didn’t appreciate it. As soon as he slipped, they didn’t know how he moved. In a flash, he turned away from Ling Fengxiao and walked to the other side.
On the other side was an equally deep black corridor, full of shadows. The moment he stepped into the corridor, the whole person seemed to disappear into the shadow of the wall and disappeared in an instant.
A wizard laughed strangely: “He does have some skill.”
Another wizard said, “It’s a good method.”
Ling Fengxiao looked at Lin Shu.
This person, eight achievements are Yue Ruohe!
《The Part of Ten Thousand Creation》method, one skill was, ‘all things are in my internal power, a.s.similated with all things in the world’, and using this to cover up the trace, it is absolutely invincible.
At this time, if they continue to chase, I’m afraid Yue Ruohe will be on the alert, and they will not be able to keep up. Anyway, there are Phoenix b.u.t.terflies on him, they will not lose people.
What was Yue Ruohe looking for? Was it good or bad?
——We need to do another probing.
However, at this moment, they have encountered a new situation.
Since the evil witch could chat up with the wizard, other wizards could also chat up with the evil witch.
A wizard whom they couldn’t tell the age came over, his voice was low and hoa.r.s.e: “The two beauties really look like each other.”
Ling Fengxiao said: “The two of us are sisters who came to the capital, you’re looking at our natural face.”
“Oh?” The wizard said, “Where are you from?”
“We are both people with a Master, so we naturally follow the Master.”
As soon as the words came out, the scene became quiet.
The “Master” who can raise such beauties is definitely not an ordinary wizard, and if other people want to get involved, they must weigh their own weight.
However, they wanted to let Ling Fengxiao go, but Ling Fengxiao didn’t want to let them go.
He heard Big Miss’ gentle voice: “This lord, may I take a step to speak?”
Big Miss really took a step to speak.
In the corridor, Ling Fengxiao asked, “I’m not hiding the truth from Your Lord, my sister and I came this time to inquire about news for our master.”
The wizard immediately understood and asked, “What news?”
Ling Fengxiao did not speak, but took out a black stone.
This stone was a rare evil stone, born in the place where ghosts and evil spirits gather, it is very precious, and it is of great benefit to the cultivation of witches and wizards——speaking of it, they had collected this in Ten Thousand Ghost Abyss.
In all the world, most of the lecherous people also love money. This wizard has not escaped the clichés.
He saw him looking at the stone in Ling Fengxiao’s hand: “The girl can ask questions.”
Ling Fengxiao said: “My master has no other preferences, but only likes to study blood poisons. The Master recently heard the news that some of the wizards in my dynasty have developed new blood poison, and the corpse has blood-red skin. It’s so beautiful, the master met each other and liked it very much, but I couldn’t find a clue…”
The wizard’s face was suddenly bad: “I don’t know.”
Do you really not know?
I’m afraid not.
Otherwise, why would you look so bad?
Ling Fengxiao’s face didn’t change. Turning her left hand, she took out a white bone flower from the brocade bag and a bag of heavy gold: “My Lord, you might as well think about it again.”
The wizard pondered for a long time and said, “If I think about it carefully, I really have some impression.”
Lin Shu: “…”
It turned out to be a bargaining method.
Ling Fengxiao said, “My Lord, please speak.”
“Your master is not living in the royal capital. It is indeed possible that he doesn’t know about this.” The wizard said, “A few days ago, there was a conflict between the right guardian of the Great Wizard and the Emperor. They had a bad relationship with each other for some time. The Emperor wanted to speak with the Great Wizard, but the Great Wizard was in closed-door cultivation and did not see him.”
As the man said, a gloating smile appeared on his face.
——It seems that the relationship between the wizards and the Northern Xia Dynasty is really not very good.
Ling Fengxiao: “A conflict?”
“This blood poison is not simple. It’s like a plague. It can spread from one to another. The right guardian said that it could be used on the battlefield, but the Emperor was afraid that it would touch his own people. ”
It really is that blood poison!
Not only that, but the Wizards of Northern Xia have already thought of using it on the battlefield!
Ling Fengxiao asked: “My master is obsessed with witchcraft. No matter these things, he just wanted to see them. But I don’t know how to see the blood poison?”
“It’s difficult. The blood poison is either sealed up in the imperial palace or carried by the right guardian. You might as well go to see the right guardian of the Great Wizard.”
This is very difficult.
Although Xiao Xuan put them outside to block the wizard, he would not be foolish enough to reveal the location of such important blood poison.
If they go and see the right guardian, they’re afraid of being exposed.
They didn’t know how deep the cultivation level of the Great Wizard of Northern Xia was. The left and right guardians were second only to him. If they were matched, it would be a question of whether they could retreat completely.
Maybe it was because they stopped talking, the wizard rolled his eyes and said, “However, there are some ways.”
Ling Fengxiao said: “Please speak.”
The wizard pointed to the grid to the south: “There.”
Ling Fengxiao said: “Thank you very much.”
The wizard gave a strange smile: “Beauties, don’t stay here long.”
After that being said, he took the items and the money and left.
Lin Shu and Ling Fengxiao came under the area he pointed to.
As soon as Lin Shu raised his eyes, he was blinded by a huge number.
Three million taels of gold!
At the night market auction, the secret script technique that allowed people to cultivate to pa.s.s through the tribulation was also of this order of magnitude.
Lin Shu asked: “Do you have that amount?”
Ling Fengxiao said: “I have.”
Lin Shu: “…”
The person who has a money printing machine at home is definitely different.
However, Ling Fengxiao said, “But I didn’t bring it.”
Lin Shu understood.
Gold is just a unit. Three million taels of gold can be piled into a golden mountain and converted into silver. I’m afraid it will be as high as a real mountain.
Except for those like Xiao Xuan who have to bring enough money to buy things, if it wasn’t for having a brain problem or the ultimate miser, who would take such an amount with him?
Such a large number, I am afraid that they will require dozens of brocade bags to fit.
Lin Shu: “Can you really get it?”
Ling Fengxiao said: “Just give it a try.”
So, Ling Fengxiao removed the things in the grid.
It’s a piece of light paper, which says: “You can make the ‘Immortal Hand’ move without a trace, and everything in the world can be captured by the hand.
In other words, with this piece of paper, you can make the “Shadowless” move once.
Or, the one who hung this piece of paper in the grid was the one with the ‘Immortal Hand’, which is ‘Shadowless’.
Who is Shadowless?
He is a famous thief in the world. Even in Southern Xia, there is a legend about him.
It is said that there is nothing in the world that he can’t steal.
He wandered through the rivers and lakes, not counted as a person of Southern Xia, nor from Northern Xia, not a righteous cultivator, nor a demon cultivator. His reputation is so big that anyone who loses something valuable inexplicably will have to mumble, “Maybe it was stolen by the Shadowless!”
Moreover, this person is not only highly-skilled but also highly professional. As long as you pay three million gold, he will not cheat.
Lin Shu felt very heartbroken.
Big Miss will pay three million taels of gold!
This realization makes him more heartbroken than if he has his own debt of three million taels of gold.
He asked: “Can he really steal it?”
Ling Fengxiao said: “It is said that this person never fails.”
Lin Shu was a little suffocated: “Three million taels of gold.”
Ling Fengxiao understated: “Hmm?”
Lin Shu asked: “How much money do you have?”
Ling Fengxiao smiled: “Why do you ask about this?”
Lin Shu said: “Just curious.”
“It’s more than enough to support you.” Ling Fengxiao took the note and said, “We are working for the imperial court this time. We spend the gold of the national treasury. You don’t have to worry about not eating well in the future.”
Oh, it didn’t cost Big Miss’s money.
——No, it’s not about not eating well.
Miss, I’m not such a frivolous boy.
