Chu Lingxiao nodded solemnly and said with a serious expression.
"I've thought of that, but the question is how do we get there? The Demon Realm has sealed off its borders due to the brutal war with the Demon Realm. Under these circumstances, it's extremely difficult for us to even move forward. There's no way we can get in."
“Ah, it’s indeed a problem.”
Gu Qingze sighed deeply, and a trace of worry appeared on his handsome face.
He was also very puzzled by this question. Since the person behind the scenes intended to lead them there, he should have anticipated the dilemma they might face of not being able to go there.
They could have given him that strange 'prop'-like thing that helped him get the 'Three Lives Flower', so they wouldn't have failed to consider this crucial link, right?
Gu Qingze thought for a moment, then suddenly an idea flashed in his mind and he said excitedly.
"We can ask our only demon vein in the demon world."
"The only demon vein?" Chu Lingxiao was confused and slightly stunned. After a moment, his confused eyes finally responded, "You mean Brother Jinnian? But we don't know when he will be back."
"No, no, no, Ling Xiao is still too narrow-minded. I'm not just referring to Brother Jinnian as a demon, I'm referring to the Song family as well."
"Song family?" Chu Lingxiao's face was full of confusion.
Gu Qingze leaned close to his ear and spoke in a low voice.
"Don't we know Song Ya? The Song family is a well-known business family in the demon world, with a complex and extensive network of contacts."
"Then he must know some other nobles. Their insider information is definitely much richer than what we know. Maybe he knows other ways to enter Xuanyin."
"That's an idea...but are you so sure that Sonja will help us?"
Chu Lingxiao was full of doubts and really didn't understand why he was so confident.
"Although I'm not 100% sure, I'm still 80% sure. After all, I'm just asking Song Ya to find out if there are other ways to enter Xuanyin. It's not a big deal and doesn't involve interests."
"Besides, we didn't ask her to find out for nothing. We paid her, and we would still pay her even if we couldn't find out. I believe that as a businessman, Song Ya must know that this is a sure-win deal."
Gu Qingze looked very confident and spoke seriously.
"That sounds like it." Chu Lingxiao nodded, but there was still a worry on his face. "But the problem is, we don't know when Song Ya will come back."
"Brother Jinnian's mother is at least easier to contact than Brother Jinnian..."
As Gu Qingze spoke, he let go of the warm embrace, took his hand, and walked briskly with him to the back garden.
There was a servant watering the flowers and plants in the back garden at that moment. Gu Qingze instantly showed a smile as warm and gentle as the spring breeze on his face, and then he and Ling Xiao walked slowly to the servant.
"Hello." Gu Qingze's voice was soft and polite.
The servant stopped watering and looked at them in confusion, his eyes full of doubt and confusion.
"We are friends of the young master who are visiting your home. I want to contact your master's wife about something. Do you have any ideas? Or if you know where she is right now, that would be fine."
The servant was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He looked them up and down for a long time, and after recognizing them, he spoke.
"Madam...she must have gone to the tavern that the master of the family is in charge of."
"Could you be more specific? After all...tavern is too broad a term."
Gu Qingze bent his knees and tried his best to make his eyes level with the servant's, without any sense of oppression, to show full respect.
"Well... I won't tell you the location. After all, both of you are human and unfamiliar with the demon world. I'll just mark it on the map."
Being stared at by such a good-looking face, the servant stepped back a few steps in embarrassment, then bravely suggested.
Gu Qingze first showed just the right amount of surprise, then solemnly and meticulously took the marked map, thanked him sincerely and with gratitude, and then pulled Ling Xiao away.
Chu Lingxiao, who was standing aside and watching, said: "........"
Although he initially thought that Qingze's actions were a bit unnecessary, even if Qingze just asked and did not perform these courtesies, he believed that the servant would tell them the information.
But later he changed his mind... It was because of Qingze's meticulousness and gentleness that the servant was so thoughtful. Otherwise, he might just tell them the location and let them find it themselves instead of marking it on the map to make it easier for them to find it.
Chu Lingxiao thought so and shook Qingze's hand. When he noticed it, he turned around and teased with a smile.
"Qingze is such a good man. He's so gentle even to his servants. I just don't know when he can be nicer to me."
"Please, am I not good enough to Ling Xiao? My heart and eyes are obviously full of you." Gu Qingze retorted with a smile that was as bright as the sun.
"I know, that's why I said be nicer to me. 'Better', understand?"
"Ling Xiao's standards are so high, but... I will try my best to satisfy Ling Xiao."
"That's more like it. I look forward to Qingze's performance then."
Chu Lingxiao nodded in satisfaction, but secretly thought in his heart that he should pay attention to these details in the future. If he spent more time and effort to be more friendly to others, he might get unexpected rewards.
