Chapter 36: The Cave Outside Yongdao City

"My friend, you are joking. Meeting each other is fate."

"It is fate that we can meet in Yongdao City today. It is also an honor for me to meet you. It is getting late. If you have nowhere to go, why don't you come to my house and have a chat?"

Yu Zhentian said with a smile.

Hearing this, Jiang Ming frowned, then asked: "Is there anything to eat?"

Yu Zhentian was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Yes, yes, yes! The food in my house is much better than that outside!"

After saying that, Yu Zhentian smiled and guided Jiang Ming towards Yu Mansion.

Along the way, Yu Zhentian also talked a lot about Yongdao City and the Yu family.

Seeing that Jiang Ming liked delicious food, he shifted the topic to food, and thus learned Jiang Ming's name.

Not long after, Yu Zhentian brought Jiang Ming to the mansion.

Walking through the gate of the mansion and arriving at a side hall, Yu Zhentian asked the servants to prepare the meal, and then invited Jiang Ming to take a seat with a smile.

After taking their seats, Yu Zhentian personally poured tea for Jiang Ming, which was a very flattering move.

Jiang Ming smiled slightly.

Even a fool would know that Yu Zhentian wanted to ask him for something.

But he didn't understand why Yu Zhentian, a late Jindan master and one of the strongest in Yongdao City, would be interested in him, a Qi training stage person? Jiang Ming drank a sip of tea and said lightly: "No one is here now, Master Yu, please speak up if you have something to say."

Yu Zhentian was stunned for a moment, then replied with a smile: "Although you are young, you have a keen eye. Then I will not beat around the bush."

"I wonder if young friend Jiang Ming has ever heard of the Immortal Palace outside Yongdao City?"

Immortal palace?

Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows.

The so-called immortal palace is generally a lie. After all, those who truly become immortals will ascend to the upper world.

Of course there are some exceptions.

For example, Jiang Ming.

However, he had heard the inn waiter mention the cave outside Yongdao City, but he didn't mention much. He just said that both the Liang family and the Yu family had sent people there, and in the end only the young master of the Liang family came out.

It was after he came out that the young master of the Liang family was noticed by the people of Xuanming Sect.

Could it be that the cave has not been fully developed yet?

"I'm just a casual cultivator. I don't know much about this place since I just arrived here." Jiang Ming said.

"I see. That's not surprising." Yu Zhentian took a deep breath and said, "To be honest, I invited you to my Yu Mansion this time precisely for this matter."

"Oh? Why?"

"Just for my Qi training period?"

Jiang Ming was somewhat interested.

Yu Zhentian said: "This matter has nothing to do with cultivation. That immortal palace is very strange. The person who discovered that immortal palace was just an ordinary person who had never practiced cultivation. In other words, everyone can enter and exit that immortal palace."

"So, after hearing the news, our family and the Liang family sent many family disciples to the Immortal Mansion to see if they could find some opportunities. But in the end, the only one who got the opportunity was the young master of the Liang family."

Having said that, Yu Zhentian also sighed.

Jiang Ming's expression didn't change much. At least what he heard here was not much different from what the waiter of the inn said.

In other words, Yu Zhentian did not lie to him.

At this time, Yu Zhentian continued, "Although my Yu family did not get the opportunity, the disciples who entered said that there are still many treasures in the Immortal Palace. However, after entering the Immortal Palace, the true energy in the body will be suppressed, and the only thing that can be exerted is physical skills."

"I went to check it out myself a few days ago, and what they said was indeed the same as what my disciples said. Unfortunately, when we were young, we didn't pay much attention to the aspect of body building. We could only watch the treasures in the Immortal Mansion, but we didn't know where to start."

Hearing this, Yu Zhentian’s intention became clear.

It was obvious that Yu Zhentian took the attack from the Xuanming Sect disciple with his bare hands because he saw Jiang Ming.

For ordinary people, this kind of physique is just physical strength.

But for the Immortal Palace he mentioned, it is an excellent choice!

Jiang Ming smiled faintly and said, "Why is Patriarch Yu so sure that I will cooperate with you?"

Yu Zhentian sighed: "To be honest, our Yu family does not have the strength to obtain the inheritance of the Immortal Palace. Therefore, I can only rely on you. If you want to monopolize the inheritance in the Immortal Palace, I can't do anything about it. Just treat it as a good relationship."

Yu Zhentian's words sounded nice.

It has to be said that he handled every detail very well, but Jiang Ming still noticed something strange.

That is, Yu Zhentian did not speak in a hurry.

He still has his plan in mind.

However, Jiang Ming did not intend to continue playing, and said calmly: "I can cooperate with you. I can bring out everything in the Immortal Mansion for you, but I also have conditions."

Yu Zhentian narrowed his eyes slightly.

To be honest, he really didn't expect Jiang Ming to agree so readily and without discussing any conditions.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"What conditions?" Yu Zhentian asked.

"Please help me keep an eye on which sects have seen the fastest growth in strength recently." Jiang Ming replied.

"Sect?" Yu Zhentian frowned: "Is it that simple?"

Jiang Ming didn't answer.

Soon, the food began to be served.

Yu Zhentian did not continue talking. Instead, he showed the same harmonious smile as at the beginning and explained every aspect of Jiang Ming's hospitality.

After the reception, Yu Zhentian arranged Jiang Ming to stay in an empty room and let him rest for a night before making any plans.

On the other side, Yu Zhentian turned around and came to the Yu family meeting hall.

"Master, did the boy agree?"

The Yu family's steward was obviously a little anxious.

"I agreed." Yu Zhentian frowned.

"Since you've agreed, why are you still so distressed?" The manager didn't quite understand.

"Do you know what conditions he proposed?" Yu Zhentian said lightly.

"What is it?"

"He asked me to investigate the sect that has seen the fastest increase in strength recently."

After hearing this, the manager was a little confused about the situation.

Is it that simple? Nowadays, there are many powerful sects, and there are also many sects that are rising quietly.

Although the number is not small, as long as we investigate, it won’t take long to list all these things out.

Compared to the treasures in the Immortal Palace, this request is simply insignificant!

It's like ordering a bunch of delicacies from land and sea, but he just eats the vegetarian dishes.

Yu Zhentian waved his hand and said, "Maybe he is really a casual cultivator who wants to find a sect that can quickly improve his strength."

If that's the case, it would make sense.

After all, in their eyes, Jiang Ming was just a cultivator in the Qi training stage.

At this time, Yu Zhentian said seriously: "Are you sure that the Liang family will also go to the Immortal Palace tomorrow?"

The steward nodded heavily: "Confirmed! But if the Liang family really brings back the treasure tomorrow, will the young lady still be married?"

A sneer appeared on Yu Zhentian's lips: "That depends on whether their lives are strong enough."

Hearing this, the steward suddenly felt the hairs on his body stand up.
