Chapter 260 Beggar in the Ruined Temple



Haitang refused to let go, "No!"

"I know you've been trying to escape. I can let you go."

Haitang was unhappy, "Jun Qingguo, you made me come to this strange place, and now you want to get rid of me? It's too late! You have to be responsible for me!"

"You can go to Yuan Zhan. Aren't you engaged to him?" Jun Qingguo is not a fool. There are only a few possibilities for an ordinary person like Yuan Zhan to run so far. One is what Haitang said before, that Yuan Zhan has many ways to escape, maybe he escaped here by accident. The second possibility is that Yuan Zhan was noticed by a strong man and was accepted as a disciple, so he was able to come to such a far place in a mortal body. The third possibility is that Yuan Zhan is unlucky and was unfortunately caught by the evil cultivator and will soon be sacrificed to death.

If the first scenario were true, Jun Qingguo wouldn't be able to take Yuan Zhan back. The journey would be long and arduous, and he didn't have a single guard by his side. Even if he could hire someone, how could they possibly compare to the loyal guards he had previously? What if they suddenly turned their blades on their employers?

Moreover, Jun Qingguo felt that the silver he brought with him was not enough to hire anyone. The Xuanhuang Kingdom did not use gold and silver for transactions, but only used spirit stones or barter methods, so he was destined to be unable to bring Yuan Zhan back.

If it is the second case, then Jun Qingguo will be at his wit's end. He has just arrived and is unfamiliar with the place. Can he snatch Yuan Zhan from the locals of Xuanhuang Kingdom?

If it is the third case, Yuan Zhan will definitely die. The demon cultivators are cruel. If Jun Qing dares to go there, he will definitely be caught and killed by the demon cultivators, and will not be able to get Yuan Zhan's body at all.

Therefore, Jun Qingguo no longer planned to look for Yuan Zhan. Haitang had lost its value to him. Although he had traveled such a long distance and did not even get a single spirit stone, which was all in vain, the experience along the way could be considered a gain.

Jun Qingguo took back the Yuan-locking silk, but Haitang said, "Actually, I lied. The contract I signed with Yuan Zhan wasn't a soul contract. Initially, Prince Rui forced me to sign a master-servant contract. Later, when Prince Rui died, the contract automatically transferred to his son, Yuan Zhan... Now I'm Yuan Zhan's servant. I want to turn the tables and find Yuan Zhan as soon as possible."

Jun Qingguo said, "Then why don't you just follow the instructions in the contract and go find him?"

"No, I once said that Yuan Zhan might have a special physique... Now it seems that my predictions were correct. Yuan Zhan must have a very good physique. I can sense that he has become a spiritual master, and his realm has surpassed mine... This means that he has found a very powerful master. If I reverse the master-servant relationship between Yuan Zhan and me, his master will definitely kill me!"

Jun Qingguo said, "If the master dies, the servant should die too, right?"

Haitang said, "That's the theory, but the master-servant contract I signed with Yuan Zhan is very simple, and it has many loopholes. If I can exploit these loopholes to reverse our relationship, then Yuan Zhan's master might also be able to use these loopholes to kill me without harming Yuan Zhan."

Jun Qingguo said, "What's the point of you telling me this? I can't help you."

Haitang said, "No, you can do it. Lend me a drop of your blood, and with the help of my incantation, I can find a way to transfer the master-servant contract between Yuan Zhan and me into a contract between you and me through deception. Then you will be my master."

Jun Qingguo frowned and said, "I think you treat me like a complete fool. I don't know anything about this. What if I help you chant the spell and then find out that I have replaced you and become Yuan Zhan's servant? Wouldn't that be terrible?"

Haitang said, "No."

"I don't believe your promise."

Haitang stared at him with her sparkling eyes and said softly, "I can swear."

Jun Qingguo said expressionlessly, "Then I don't believe it either."

Haitang knew that the other party had no obligation to help her, but she was still very angry. She said, "You...you are cold-blooded!"

Jun Qingguo nodded, "Yeah, I think so too."

The two separated. Haitang was penniless, so she first found a place to take off her bulky clothes and put on her old pink dress, which outlined her graceful figure. There were many spiritual masters on the street, including many handsome men and beautiful women, and most of the practitioners had good figures. Haitang's appearance was slightly inferior, but her eyes were very beautiful. However, the spiritual masters practiced a variety of techniques. Many people could tell at a glance that Haitang's technique was related to the eyes, and thus became wary. Haitang could only deceive some naive children, but these children were backed by their parents, so Haitang did not dare to act against them easily.

After much thought, I can only deceive ordinary people.

But there were too few ordinary people, and Haitang didn't meet a single one during her journey.

"The capital city here is too prosperous, and royal guards pass by on the road from time to time. It is really not a good place to commit a crime. Anyway, I have to walk through the capital city for a long time before I can find Yuan Zhan. I will definitely meet ordinary people on the way. It is impossible that all cities are inhabited by only cultivators, right? Ordinary people still make up the majority of the people in this world." Haitang thought.

Jun Qingguo used the Suoyuan silk on himself.

When he was young, a powerful man from the Mengsha Immortal Sect passed by the Dayui Kingdom and felt that he had extraordinary talent. He gave him a piece of Suoyuan Silk and told him that if he cultivated to the Chengyuan Realm before the age of 100, he could go to the Mengsha Immortal Sect to become a disciple.

The Mengsha Immortal Sect is located in the Xuanhuang Kingdom.

However, Jun Qingguo has not yet cultivated to the Chengyuan realm. He has only the cultivation level of the early Qingyuan realm. Now he is not qualified to become a disciple, let alone join other sects to practice. He can only stay in the capital of Xuanhuang Kingdom for now.
