Chapter 132: Secret Talks

  Yuè Zhù Fēng is the highest peak on Xī Xīng Island, reaching a height of two thousand zhang. It is also the only place with the best quality spiritual vein on Xī Xīng Island. Legend has it that at the top of this mountain, there is a Well of Spiritual Eye that never dries up for ten thousand years.

  Such excellent conditions naturally made this peak the main peak of Xingxing Island. The island master Tian He, set up his cave mansion on this peak.

  On this day, in a hidden cave in the Moon Pillar Peak, a middle-aged cultivator with half a foot of black beautiful whiskers and a refined appearance was having a soft conversation with an eight-foot-tall, burly man with a rugged face.

  "Brother Min, I heard that the ancient seal space that your esteemed sect spent great effort to open has been jointly taken over by the three major powers and will even be opened to the outside world. Is this true? If so, won't the hard work of several fellow daoists from your sect have gone to waste?" asked a middle-aged cultivator with a long beard.

  "Tian He brother, my sect was also forced to do so, and unexpectedly leaked the news, taking a step ahead of other sects in the Inverse Heaven Alliance. Even the Orthodox Alliance and the Hundred Sects Alliance joined in! As a result, my sect had no choice but to agree to co-manage in order to establish itself in the Starry Sea. Fortunately, our sect leader was able to reason with them and keep control of the transmission array in our hands. This way, every time we transmit a cultivator, we can collect some spirit stones, and our sect can also earn a profit. Otherwise, it would be a waste of effort, doing all the work for others!" Da Han sighed, showing some dissatisfaction with the actions of the three major powers.

  "Hey, this is also normal. The three major powers can't just sit and watch your sect rise to power. Although you lost the opportunity to monopolize the treasure, you avoided the crisis of being swept away by the three major powers. At the same time, you can take advantage of the situation to make a big profit and increase the strength of your sect. Looking at it this way, your sect isn't losing out on this deal!" The long-bearded elder said with a hearty laugh.

  Dahan cupped his hands and smiled, saying: "This is all thanks to Tian He's help, who helped our sect find Yun Lei Xiao, a master of the array technique that appears only once in a hundred years. Otherwise, our sect would not have been able to open up this space in such a short period of time."

  "Alright, alright. Yun Lei Xiao is just a Qi Condensation stage cultivator from the Cloud Thunder Sect, naturally not worth mentioning. Speaking of which, this person's grandfather and I have some connections, he can be considered an acquaintance. I wonder how he is doing now, still serving the noble family?" The middle-aged cultivator asked lightly while stroking his black beard.

  "Hey! Min Certain came this time, it's precisely because of this matter! Our door wants to apologize to Tian He brother! That Yun Lei Xiao has a very violent temper, not long ago, our school asked him to improve the ancient seal space array restriction, but he not only didn't listen, instead found an opportunity to self-detonate his true yuan, and thus his soul flew away!" Da Han shook his head, saying with apology.

  The middle-aged man with a long beard nodded and said faintly, "So that's how it is. When I handed him over to your family, I expected this day would come. Since I promised to hand him over, naturally I won't bother about his life or death! Your family doesn't need to apologize specially for coming here. I suppose Brother Min has come from afar with another intention?"

  "Haha, the one who knows me is indeed Brother Tian He! That's right, this time I've come to entrust a task to Brother Tian He. Please help our family out once again, and we'll increase the reward by 50%!" The big man laughed loudly, offering an offer that his counterpart couldn't refuse.

  "Oh, what can I do for you? I suppose it's about making a move in the Penglai Fairy Island's jurisdiction again. Otherwise, with your sect's strength, there would be no need to use me!" The long-bearded cultivator asked with a smile on his face.

  "Brother Tian He is indeed clever, it's true. After our door inquired about it, we heard that Yun Lei Xiao Yu has a daughter who deeply understands the true transmission of Yun Lei Xiao's formation method. At the time when the Yun family was hijacked, this girl escaped from the pursuit of several foundation-building middle-stage cultivators with her initial foundation-building cultivation. Decades have passed, and it is said that this girl has also formed a golden elixir, is this true?" Da Han asked seriously.

  The middle-aged master's face sank, and he stroked his long beard, but didn't immediately respond. After a moment, he slowly said: "Hehe! Your sect's news is indeed well-informed, I'm afraid there are also spies from your sect on the Western Star Island that this humble monk manages!" He casually glanced at the big man with a slight smile and continued: "No mistake, this woman is likely already a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. Moreover, one of this humble monk's beloved disciples may have been killed by her hand!"

  "What? This girl is at most just formed her Golden Elixir not long ago, how could she possibly kill Tian He's beloved disciple? Even if she has some extraordinary treasure or secret technique, the disciple should still be able to escape!" The big man said with a slightly changed expression.

  "This matter is also unclear to me. How, your esteemed family has set its sights on this newly ascended Golden Elixir female cultivator again?" the middle-aged cultivator asked with a hint of a smile.

  "Haha, I won't hide it from you, Brother Tianhe. Our sect indeed wants to borrow her Array Dao. Our sect still needs to do some perfecting work on the seal of the space-restricting grand array. If we can find a few cultivators who have studied the ancient grand arrays deeply, perhaps we can complete it faster. I want to ask for your help, Brother Tianhe. As long as you capture this girl and her father alive, just like before, and hand them over to our sect, our sect leader will personally thank you and won't forget your helping hand. We'll also give you another batch of high-quality furnaces." The big man said with a smile, revealing his true intentions.

  "Hmm! Since the master of our sect has spoken, how could I dare not comply? Besides, this woman killed my disciple, so naturally I won't let her off. Handing her over to our sect is fine too. I agreed to this matter, but this woman is extremely cautious and her movements are unpredictable. Although I mobilized many people, it's still difficult to find her for the time being. This is different from suddenly capturing Yun Lei Xiao, it's not easy to succeed in one move." The middle-aged cultivator picked up the tea cup beside him, took a sip of the spiritual tea, and lightly agreed.

  "Alright! As long as Tian He is willing to help, this matter won't be a problem! As for the time, Tian He doesn't need to rush, finding her within thirty to fifty years will be sufficient, no need to hurry!" The big man said happily.

  "In thirty to fifty years, this is easy to handle. This woman won't dare to show her face and use the transmission arrays between the major islands. I believe she can't run far either." The long-bearded monk said calmly, with a confident expression.

  "Thanks for your trouble, Brother Tianhe! As a cultivator of the Inverse Heaven Alliance, I'm afraid it's not convenient for me to stay here any longer. Now that things are settled, I'll take my leave and return to Xingzhou Immortal Island!" The burly man saw that his mission was accomplished and immediately had the intention of returning. Although this Western Star Island is remote, it also belongs to the Orthodox Alliance's sphere of influence. As a Yuan Ying stage cultivator of the Inverse Heaven Alliance, he really didn't find it convenient to linger here. If those Orthodox Alliance Yuan Ying old monsters were to discover him, they would inevitably have another round of arguments, and even add a lot of trouble for his sect!

  "All right, I won't see you off too far then!" The middle-aged monk stood up and bowed with his fists clasped together.

  "Alright, alright! Please!" The big man slightly cupped his fists and with just a slight sway of his body, he had already walked out of the cave and transformed into a thin, almost invisible yellow light that disappeared in the sky above Moon Pillar Peak.

  A moment later, a 16 or 17-year-old enchanting girl with charming eyes like silk walked out of the cave, wearing a light green short dress and skirt, revealing her slender waist. She was walking towards the middle-aged cultivator, who surprisingly turned out to be a high-ranking cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage.

  The middle-aged master saw the woman, and his long hair fluttered up. He changed from being calm and composed to being flirtatious, with a hint of lechery in his eyes. He said softly, "Baby, how did you come out?"

  "I heard that Master Min came by just now, could it be that my husband is tired of me and wants to ask Master Min to find another concubine?" The young girl's cherry lips pouted slightly, her beautiful eyes gazing at the middle-aged monk with a hint of resentment, speaking in a tone of utmost grievance.

  "Darling, what are you talking about! With you by my side, would I ever look at those mediocre women?" The middle-aged cultivator smiled slightly and opened his arm, pulling the young girl into his embrace. He stroked her slender and delicate curves with abandon, laughing: "If it weren't for your beauty, I wouldn't have lowered myself to associate with the cultivators of the Inverted Heaven Alliance on the Xuanzhou Immortal Island, and taken action against the junior of my old friend!"

  "What's wrong, husband? Don't you think it's worth it?" The girl leaned against the man's chest, gently stroking and breathing like an orchid.

  "Haha, it's worth it! It's worth it!" The long-bearded monk burst out laughing, full of joy and satisfaction.
