"Impossible! When he left the Heavenly Realm, he was only at the Great Emperor level, but the top experts guarding the Heavenly Demon City were at the Pseudo-Saint level. With such a difference in realm, even a pure human sword cultivator like him, a Great Emperor, should not be able to make up for it!"
"But what if he breaks through to the Half-Saint level, or even directly breaks through to the Pseudo-Saint level?"
"How is this possible? It's only been a short time since he left this place. How could he have broken through so quickly!"
"But he possesses the unparalleled aptitude among humans to attain the status of a Human Emperor!"
"Could it be?!"
"..."
The more the group discussed it, the more shocked they became.
The masked monks also learned from the conversations of these people about the horrifying things this person had done when he came to this place.
"Three breaths have passed, and the price has now risen to 150,000 Heavenly Crystals."
"Once you confirm the purchase, I will tell you where he is, and even his cultivation level, status and position."
"You only get one chance. If you don't buy after three breaths, the transaction will be considered a failure."
As Ji Ruojun spoke, she lit a cigarette and slowly exhaled smoke.
If Su Bai were here, he would surely recognize that the cigarettes she was smoking were the same pack he had once given her.
"Three...two..."
"make a deal!"
final.
The masked monk still chose to make the deal.
Ji Ruojun accepted the storage ring he offered, showing no surprise on her face, clearly having already anticipated this outcome.
The masked monk, having obtained the answer, vanished into the void and departed.
Stay where you are.
Ji Ruojun sighed, "Another one who doesn't know the rules. The teleportation array is closed today."
As he spoke.
As if remembering something, Ji Ruojun turned around and glared angrily at the group of people in the inn.
"I have an announcement to make: every pack of 'Relieve All Worries' from Jubaozhai will increase in price by one Heavenly Crystal Stone!"
"No, Master, what do you mean by this?"
One of the cultivators choked on the smoke upon hearing this, coughing as he spoke.
The other cultivators were no better off, and they all crowded around to plead for mercy.
But Ji Ruojun didn't give them a chance and left directly.
after all.
If it weren't for these guys being so talkative, her information could have sold for at least 300,000 Heavenly Crystals!
...
Night arrives with the wind.
But Tianxing City was bustling with activity.
The reason is simple: the sudden popularity of "Jie Qianchou" (a type of herbal remedy) has caused this city, which serves as a post station, to become extremely popular, with many people coming and going in search of "Jie Qianchou".
Although it was already late at night, Jubaozhai was still bustling with activity and noise.
“Master, the other Treasure Pavilions in the other cities have sent messages, and without exception, they are all still seeking the method to make ‘Relieve a Thousand Sorrows’.”
Above Jubaozhai, Ji Ruojun looked at the lively scene below, her eyes flickering slightly, lost in thought.
for a long time.
She then lowered her head and looked at the obsequious old man in the ornate robe.
"Get rid of them. This was personally developed by the master of this place. How could I give it to them so easily?"
"But they said that because they weren't selling the cure for all sorrows, business at the restaurant had plummeted."
"Then tell them to import it from here; if they don't agree, then there's no point in talking!"
"How could I possibly give away something that I worked so hard to develop so easily!"
That's all.
Ji Ruojun waved for the old man to leave, and then, as if she had made up her mind, she took out a stone that shimmered with precious light.
“Father, I can take over Jubaozhai, but I have one condition.”
"explain."
A deep, resonant voice emanated from within the stone.
"In this conflict between humans and other races, we at Jubaozhai stand with the human race!"
Why?
“My father has far more spies under his command than I do, and he also possesses the Sky-Gazing Mirror, so he naturally understands the reason behind it.”
"You mean, Su Bai?"
"yes."
Ji Ruojun nodded.
"Although my Jubaozhai is powerful, under the suppression of the Celestial Palaces, it is just a small force active in the Heavenly Realm and cannot go to the Nine Heavens to truly develop and grow!"
"That's right. Su Bai is no ordinary man. He was able to lead the defeated human race to turn defense into offense, which is something that ordinary people cannot do. In any era, he would be an extraordinary genius that cannot be ignored by the human race, or even the Heavenly Path Realm!"
"But have you ever considered that although he is recognized by two human treasures and is nominally the true ruler, his strength is too weak. As of now, he is only at the peak of the half-saint level and has not even walked the path of divinity!"
"He possesses the strength to kill a pseudo-saint, but you must understand that the ultimate survival of the two races depends on the battle between true saints. Even if he can stir up a storm before reaching the true saint level, he is ultimately just a slightly larger ant!"
"It's not that the human race has no chance at all, but it's a bit too hasty for you to suppress him now."
“Father, although we are businessmen and everything we do is for profit, you must understand that helping someone in need is always better than adding to someone’s success.”
Ji Ruojun spoke in a deep voice.
"and……"
