After dinner, Yan Zhe cleaned up the dishes and returned to the house and locked the door.
He picked up the bag of gold, and with a thought, a ball of light wrapped around it and disappeared in an instant.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an antique room. It was a completely different world.
When he awakened the Beast Taming Space at the age of sixteen, he discovered that there was a bead inside his Beast Taming Space. As long as he touched it with his mind, he would arrive in this new world.
The two worlds are reversed, day and night are reversed, it is night over there, and it is just dawn over here.
After nearly two years of careful exploration, he has gained a general understanding of this world.
There are immortals and demons here, but the majority are warriors.
Long ago, spiritual energy dried up, immortal arts declined, martial arts flourished, dynasties came to power, and immortal sects retreated from the world. But immortals do exist, and so do monsters.
When he first came to this world, he was among a group of refugees.
Later, he found that he could return to the Beast Taming World at any time, so he began to actively seek development here.
He was extremely cautious and it took him a year to build up his own property and establish some connections in Nanli Country, Dongyang Prefecture, and Hongshi City.
Now he is the owner of the most popular restaurant "Yuanyanglou" in Red Stone City.
This restaurant was just a cover for him to make connections and to obtain his wealth. Although he was the owner on paper, he actually only owned 30% of the shares, 50% of which were in the hands of Li Shaobai, the young master of Red Stone City, and the remaining 20% were distributed among the five wealthy families in the city.
Money is nothing but external things. When Yan Zhe learned that there were immortals in this world, cultivating immortality became his pursuit.
But now the immortal sect has declined and there is no way to find a way to become an immortal.
He could only settle for the next best thing and practice martial arts first. He reached the ninth level of the Blood Refining Realm, whose strength corresponded to the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm. With sufficient tonics, he had already reached the third level. It would be extremely difficult to reach the next level.
He never gave up on cultivating immortality, spent a lot of money, and sent people to search for it.
There was finally news yesterday.
The purpose of taking such a large amount of gold bars this time is precisely for this matter.
After changing clothes and opening the door, four maids, Siqin, Nianqi, Yushu and Zhihua, were already waiting outside.
Siqin brought a basin of water, Nianqi handed over a towel, Yushu brought the toothbrush, and Zhihua held the spittoon.
After washing up, Yan Zhe waved his hand for them to leave, and the housekeeper Chen Bo stepped forward to report.
"Master, it has been confirmed again that the West City Black Market Auction this afternoon is indeed going to auction off a cultivator's storage bag. It is said that the storage bag has not been opened, and no one knows what is inside.
I'm afraid there are many people eyeing this kind of treasure."
Yan Zhe smiled and said, "It's okay. Is there anyone in this Red Stone City who can snatch things from the eldest young master? Call Brother Fu and come with me to the City Lord's Mansion later."
Brother Fu’s full name is “Fu Chenguang”. He is a master of the fifth level of the Blood Refining Realm. He was hired by Yan Zhe as a personal bodyguard and is also his teacher of Qi and Blood Martial Arts.
He had never thought of getting the immortal cultivator's storage bag himself.
Although immortal magic has declined, every immortal treasure has its own uses and will cause scramble every time they appear, not to mention storage bags that can be used to transport military supplies.
He was not in a hurry. The road to immortality was long. What he gained this time was enough as long as he could take the first step, even if it was a small step.
Every time Yan Zhe went to the City Lord's Mansion, he would make arrangements for everyone. Anyone he met, even the servants picking night incense, would be rewarded, so the people here welcomed him very much.
Because he never hid it from Li Shaobai when he did this, and he even said in front of him that he just wanted to do him a favor, so this was not a big deal.
It was indeed very convenient for him to enter and exit the City Lord's Mansion.
Li Shaobai was practicing martial arts in the courtyard. He turned around and saw Yan Zhe approaching. He put away his stance and said happily, "Brother, are you free to come and see me today?"
Yan Zhe smiled and said, "There is something important. I came here to find you."
The two of them sat down in a nearby pavilion. Li Shaobai took a sip of tea and said, "Let me guess, is this about a black market auction?"
"Haha, Shaobai, you really understand me. You know, I've been trying to find the way to immortality, but I've never found a way. Now that I've finally gotten some information, I must seize it.
But I definitely can't get it myself, so I have no choice but to come to you. I will take out all my family's wealth, three thousand taels of gold, to help you get the storage bag. I just hope that if you find any skills inside, you can print a copy for me, your brother, how about it?
The relationship between Yan Zhe and Li Shaobai can be simply summed up in five words: sincerity for sincerity.
If a young city lord like him were to use any means or schemes to contact the city lord, Yan Zhe felt that he would have been arranged by the city lord long ago.
That's it, no beating around the bush, just state your purpose directly.
Li Shaobai smiled upon hearing this and said, "Brother, you are truly generous! However, please do not get involved in this matter. In fact, this storage bag was put up for auction by the City Lord's Mansion in order to attract other cultivators."
"Oh? Where does this thing come from?" Yan Zhe asked with a start.
Li Shaobai replied, "A few days ago, my father went to wipe out the bandits in Half Moon Mountain. The leader of that mountain stronghold was a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining. This storage bag was obtained from him.
According to my father, this bandit must have gotten this opportunity by chance, and later cultivated himself to his current level.
The storage bag was not very big, only half a meter square. Inside it were only a small tripod and a jade slip related to cultivation. The jade slip contained a secret code of inheritance called 'Danding Sect'.
