Days pass by
With Wei Han deliberately keeping a low profile, the turmoil at the enthronement ceremony quickly subsided.
After all, this incident brought great fame to the Zixiao Holy Land, and the other holy lands lost face, so no one dared to talk about it openly, and gradually, no one mentioned it anymore.
But beneath this calm, it seems that a storm is brewing.
Ordinary people might not be able to notice anything wrong, but Wei Han had been monitoring the situation in Bahuang City and inadvertently discovered that prices were rising in a small area.
Whether it is various levels of elixirs, spiritual materials, magic weapons, or various spiritual rices and monster meats, there have been price increases to varying degrees. And it is not just Bahuang City that is seeing price increases. I have heard many independent cultivators and vendors complain that prices in other immortal cities are also rising.
Most people don’t pay too much attention to this situation and just think it’s a normal price increase!
However, Wei Han keenly sensed that something was wrong. How could it be like someone was hoarding supplies before a war?
Thinking about the wars he had experienced in the past, Wei Han's heart immediately lifted up, and he worked harder and more carefully to collect various intelligence.
After many days of observation, he could finally confirm it!
It is true that there are powerful forces secretly purchasing supplies, and the purchasing methods are very covert and the purchasing locations are very scattered. This has led to only a slight increase in prices in various places, which has not attracted much attention.
This discovery immediately made Wei Han nervous.
Although he now has the support of the Purple Sky Holy Land, a little unrest will not be able to shake or threaten him, but he now has a large family and a lot of connections, so if someone really wants to deal with him, they can still find his flaws and weaknesses.
I just hope this is just a small local conflict.
If there really is a major conflict that engulfs the entire Ten Thousand Star Sea, then the Zixiao Holy Land is not absolutely safe either. After all, there are many conflicts among the major holy lands.
"I hope everything goes smoothly!"
Wei Han felt a little uneasy in his heart, and finally decided to use divination to predict good or bad luck.
The "Three Burrows for a Cunning Rabbit" plan was the escape route he prepared for himself, and the system's divination function was his stabilizing force. No matter what turmoil occurred in the outside world, it would not escape the monitoring of the divination function.
"System, predict my fortune in the next year!" Wei Han said.
【bite! After deducting 2 million points of merit, the divination is successful. This divination is the hexagram of Xun on top and Gen on bottom, which means that the thin ice is very dangerous and it is difficult for pedestrians to stop, like walking on thin ice. If you can survive the disaster, you will be rewarded with a great opportunity! 】
"Um?"
Wei Han's eyes widened in shock.
What's going on? Why did we suddenly feel like we were walking on thin ice?
He is the first holy son of Zixiao Holy Land. He only needs to practice steadily all the way to reach the top. Who has the ability to put him in great danger? Could it be that the entire Wanxing Sea is about to fall into chaos?
"Divination on the good or bad situation of the entire Wanxing Sea!" Wei Han spoke again.
The system directly replied: "This divination requires 2.7 billion merits, and you don't have enough merits."
Wei Han: “…”
What major cause and effect is involved?
One has to deduct 2.7 billion merits before predicting good or bad luck?
But think about it, the Wanxinghai Holy Land has numerous sects and a population of trillions. There are so many causes and effects involved, and it must be a lot of merit to rashly make divinations.
In this case, then predicting the good and bad fortune of the Zixiao Holy Land must require a great deal of merit.
As luck would have it, Wei Han had used up 80% of his merits in the last deduction of the technique, and now he only had tens of millions left, so it seemed that he had given up the idea of using the divination function to find out any clues.
Just when Wei Han was frowning and wanted to use his clone to find out the situation!
Xiaoqing and Xiaozi knocked on the door to report that Gu Mingyue was visiting.
"Senior Sister? Why is she here?"
Wei Han's eyes lit up, and he vaguely felt that her purpose might be related to matters of good or bad fortune, so he quickly withdrew from the Void Dharma Hall and walked straight towards the main hall of Wuliang Peak.
Gu Mingyue, who was wearing a water-green dress, was sitting at the side of the main hall drinking tea. When she saw him coming, she quickly stood up and greeted him, "Holy Son."
"Sister, why are you doing this?" Wei Han frowned unhappily: "A relationship like ours doesn't need to be so distant, right?"
"Haha!" Gu Mingyue smiled softly, her eyes softened, and she said jokingly, "I'm just worried that your noble status might offend me, Junior Brother. No, no, no, you can't call me Junior Brother anymore. Just call me Holy Son. This way, I won't be criticized."
"Nonsense." Wei Han waved his hand nonchalantly and said with a smile, "It's better for you and me to call each other senior sister and junior brother. After all, I am a direct disciple of Qingming Peak. The Holy Son is just an identity. How can I forget the love you and your master have shown me?"
Gu Mingyue finally regained her former cheerfulness, and a smile appeared on her face.
She knew that Wei Han was not just being hypocritical, he really didn't care about these things. He was also a person who looked cold but was warm-hearted and remembered favors.
Whether it is the former Changsheng Sect or the current Qingming Peak and Wuliang Peak!
Wei Han never looked down on his former teachers and relatives after he gained power. Even though he deliberately did not go back to visit them often, it was only because he did not want the Changsheng Sect to become an enemy that could threaten his weak spot. He still always took care of them on a daily basis.
"I came here to look for you because my master asked me to come here to inform you in advance." Gu Mingyue restrained his expression and said seriously, "The seal of the Demon Realm has loosened a bit recently. You may have to help suppress it."
"Oh? The Demon Realm?"
Wei Han's expression changed slightly, and he thought about his own fortune.
Could this matter be related to the crisis he is about to encounter? It should be!
With his low-key personality, he generally does not go out, and not going out means there is no danger. He is only likely to encounter danger when on necessary missions such as guarding deep-sea mines.
Wei Han was mentally prepared for this!
After all, he is the First Holy Son. While enjoying the fame and benefits, he should also fulfill his obligations. However, it stands to reason that since he has just made a name for himself, the sect's top leaders should not push him out to carry out missions at this time, right? They haven't even had time to protect themselves, why are they in such a hurry?
"What's so special about the Demonic Realm?" Wei Han couldn't help but ask.
"Junior brother, you should have heard of the Demonic Cave, right?" Gu Mingyue asked back.
"nature!"
Wei Han nodded silently. He had more than just heard of it. I have personally been to the Demon Cave Mine, but what is the connection between this place and the Demon Realm?
"It is rumored that there is a place called the Netherworld outside our world. It is a paradise for weird creatures and demons. In ancient times, ancient demons invaded our world and caused endless killings. Now, the remnants of ancient demons are still causing trouble in various places."
"The Demon Realm is a small world very close to the Netherworld. It is polluted by demonic energy, causing no human or animal life to survive. It is filled with demonic energy at any time and anywhere, and can constantly breed the remnants of demonic spirits!"
"Since it has no value, and destroying it will cause turmoil and hostility in the Netherworld, the major holy places in the Wanxing Sea have always focused on sealing it, and every once in a while they have to send the younger generations of the sect to practice!"
Gu Mingyue's eloquent explanation immediately made Wei Han more certain of his judgment - there was something strange about this so-called experience!
