Ninth In the World

Chapter 719: Why Are You Asking Around About Me?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Di Jiu was puzzled. Ren He’s father, Ren Jisha, was the Hall Master of the Moon Traverse Divine Hall and was comparable to Dao Integration experts. Would Ren He himself even suffer from Qi Deviation when he had attained Primordial Chaos? This was weird, no matter what.

“After that happened, Ren Jisha didn’t ask Fairy Yueshu forcefully?” Di Jiu asked again. He knew that Xuan Yushu had some doubts about Yin Yueshu. Otherwise, she would not have just told him to only have a look at her and not remember her.

Xuan Yushu shook her head while saying, “No. After that happened, Hall Master Ren left the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City with his son. I heard that he went to look for the Two-Realm Flower. Only the Two-Realm Flower can treat Ren He.”

The Two-Realm Flower? Immediately, Di Jiu recalled that he had a pair in his Ninth World. If Ren Jisha was willing to exchange the Sun Core for them, he definitely would not be stingy with the Two-Realm Flowers.

Besides being able to assist in Dao Validation, remodel the physical body and meridians, and restore the soul and Principal Spirit, the Two-Realm Flower also had an important feature: It was an antidote to any poison. It could be said that the Two-Realm Flower was more precious than most top-notch Dao fruits.

Ren Jisha had gone to look for the Two-Realm Flower to treat his son, causing people to think deeply. As for why Ren Jisha had released the news on the Two-Realm Flower, Di Jiu understood very well.

The Two-Realm Flower was not easily obtained. Therefore, Ren Jisha had released the news on the Two-Realm Flower because he wanted people in possession of it to exchange it with him or anyone with news to inform him.

It looked like he had hope. Upon thinking of that, Di Jiu asked spiritedly, “When is Hall Master Ren returning to the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City?”

Xuan Yushu replied with a bitter smile, “I’m afraid nobody knows, but I heard that he will come back every few years. Based on previous situations, he will come back after a few months at most.”

Bam! A figure rushed over. From the looks of it, he was rushing over while escaping.

Xuan Yushu, who sat facing Di Jiu, suddenly stood up and shouted in shock, “Wei Fei!”

“Sister Shu!” Once the young man who rushed in saw Xuan Yushu, he stepped over with just one step.

Di Jiu noticed that this young man was covered in blood and a few of his bones were broken. Evidently, he had been injured outside not long ago.

“Get out. The Bright Boat Teahouse is not somewhere you can cause trouble.” A shop assistant rushed over to chase away Wei Fei.

Di Jiu stood up and stopped this assistant by saying, “Let him sit over here. This is a friend of mine.”

Upon seeing the Magnetic Divine Tea on Di Jiu’s table, the shop assistant hesitated before telling him, “Dear guest, this friend obviously escaped here after being injured while someone sought revenge on him. If he stays, it will have a bad impact on our shop.”

Di Jiu faintly replied, “It’s fine if this store is afraid. We’ll leave right away.”

The shop assistant turned red upon hearing that. After all, the Bright Boat Teahouse had some fame in the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City. If the teahouse was worried about inviting trouble because of an injured guest and chased him away as a result, their reputation might take a devastating hit right away.

Although this shop assistant knew very well that this friend of Di Jiu was not there for tea, gossip was a fearful thing. When people spread this information, they would twist the truth.

“Alright then.” The shop assistant hesitated for a while but eventually did not chase him away.

“Thank you, Senior Brother, for helping me.” After the shop assistant left, this young man immediately cupped his fists before Di Jiu, sounding very respectful.

Xuan Yushu also stood up. After thanking Di Jiu with cupped fists, she stared at the young man and asked, “Wei Fei, why did you fight with someone in the Sacred Dao City?”

Wei Fei quickly answered, “I didn’t. I met the Chuang Brothers outside the Sacred Dao City. If I hadn’t escaped quickly, I’m afraid I would have lost my life.”

“You’re still dead. I, Chuang Youxin, don’t believe that you can stay in the Bright Boat Inn forever.” A yellow-skinned man walked in and scanned Di Jiu disdainfully while he was talking.

Behind him was a weak cultivator. The two of them had a cultivation level at the late-stage Dao Transformation.

This shocked Di Jiu greatly. Wei Fei and Xuan Yushu were both late-stage Dao Birth cultivators. How had they become enemies of two late-stage Dao Transformation cultivators?

Without paying attention to what Chuang Youxin had said, Wei Fei sat down.

Di Jiu did not mind those two Dao Transformation cultivators. He also knew that after being watched by two irksome fellows, it was unrealistic to continue asking about Yin Yueshu. Fortunately, he knew what he had to know.

“Why are you asking around about me?” Another voice spoke. When Di heard this voice, his heart leaped. He knew who had come.

Sure enough, stunning Yin Yueshu appeared before Di Jiu a moment later.

“Greetings, Fairy Yueshu.” As soon as Yin Yueshu appeared in the inn, everyone stood up and bowed.

Xuan Yushu, who was with Di Jiu, turned pale. She had not expected Yin Yueshu to know that they had talked about her even though she had set up a restriction.

However, Di Jiu sighed. His cultivation had declined after suffering serious injuries and even his sensory ability had dropped a lot. Otherwise, how could he not have known that Yin Yueshu had set up a Trigger Array in the entire Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City?

The array was not complicated and was merely triggered by a word. As long as her name was mentioned, she would know.

The level of the noise-isolation restriction that Xuan Yushu had set up was too low, so it was obviously unable to isolate their conversation.

Yin Yueshu did not pay attention to anyone else. She just stared at Di Jiu. Only Di Jiu could see the killing intent in her eyes.

Di Jiu calmly said, “You are a graceful woman matched with a nobleman. You are really beautiful, Fairy Yueshu. Even though I know I have no hope, it’s normal to ask around about you.”

“Not bad. You have guts, and what you said is pleasant.” Unexpectedly, Yin Yueshu nodded at Di Jiu.

While she said that, her gaze landed on the teapot of Magnetic Divine Tea on Di Jiu’s table and she said, “It’s no wonder you didn’t care about the Steep Rain Pill I gave you and casually gave it to someone else. I really didn’t know that you were so wealthy that you could even afford Magnetic Divine Tea.”

“You’re flattering me. I’m just an upstart who happened to acquire some wealth. I wouldn’t dare say I have more good stuff than other people. However, I really do have some divine crystals,” Di Jiu replied in a tone that was neither overbearing nor humble.

Even though Yin Yueshu was at the early-stage Primordial Chaos and he had suffered serious injuries, she would not stop him if he wanted to leave. Based on her words, he could see that she was inconsiderate.

A hint of admiration flashed in Yin Yueshu’s eyes. “Not bad. You have some guts. I’m going out to meet some friends this time. Come with me.”

Di Jiu immediately replied, “Fairy Yueshu, I’m only an ordinary cultivator. Won’t I be disgracing you by going to your friend’s gathering?”

Yin Yueshu faintly answered, “That will only be disgracing me. You just need to come with me. When we get there, just say you’re my servant.”

Di Jiu chuckled. “Fairy Yueshu, even though I appreciate your beauty, I’m not interested in becoming someone’s slave.”

If Di Jiu had not known that the Sun Core was very likely in Yin Yueshu’s possession, he would not have bothered talking so much with her.

“Ha ha...” Yin Yueshu laughed. Not only was she not angry, but she also said with a smile, “Not bad. In that case, come with me as my suitor. I haven’t seen anyone like you in a long time.”

At the thought of the person with the surname Ning, she sank into deep thought for a while...
