When you step into Piaomiao Pavilion, the first thing that catches your eye is the spacious and bright hall with the floor paved with jade.
Going further in, there are rows of tall bookshelves filled with all kinds of jade slips and ancient books. These are all precious materials and information in the world of immortal cultivation.
All the information here needs to be purchased.
Fan Li walked straight into the private room for trading information without looking around.
The private rooms are equipped with formations to block the outside world's spiritual awareness and ensure the privacy of the guests.
There was a chair and a table in the room.
It is worth noting that there is a large mirror on the table.
Fan Li walked to the chair and sat down. Fan Li's image was reflected in the mirror. He was also sitting upright and looked no different from ordinary people.
But then, a magical scene happened.
There was a slight fluctuation in the mirror.
Then, the man in the mirror smiled and said, "Buy, sell, and search. What do you need, fellow Taoist?"
The tone of voice was so gentle and soft that it made one's bones go weak and scalp tingle.
This "buy, sell, and search" is easy to understand, it means buying and selling information and finding objects and people.
Fan Li said: "Search."
The person in the mirror said, "Looking for someone or something? The starting price for looking for someone is one hundred mid-grade spirit stones, and for looking for something it's two hundred."
Fan Li took out the stone tablet containing the clue to the remaining scroll of Tian Yan Jue from the space bracelet and placed it on the table.
It turned out to be a lost item.
The person in the mirror did not move, and said, "Daoyou, please wait a moment."
After a while, the person in the mirror said happily: "Daoyou are very lucky, we have a clue now."
"Please first pay two hundred middle-grade spirit stones."
Fan Li placed the spirit stone on the table as instructed, and disappeared the next moment.
The man in the mirror then slowly said, "This is an incomplete treasure map. In addition to the one in your hand, there are two more pieces left outside. One of the pieces that Piao Miao Pavilion knows about is in Ling Bao Zhai. It will be auctioned tomorrow, and the starting price is ten high-quality spirit stones."
"As for the other one, you can choose to pay 500 mid-grade spirit stones and ask Piao Miao Pavilion to help you find it."
"If it's overdue for half a year, Piao Miao Pavilion will return half of the spirit stones. If it's still not found after two years, not only will it be fully returned, but it will also compensate one hundred mid-grade spirit stones as an apology."
The person in the mirror spoke with confidence.
Indeed, they have the capital to be confident, after all, this is what Piaomiao Pavilion does for a living.
No one knows how Piao Miao Pavilion operates behind the scenes, but at the same time, no one will question Piao Miao Pavilion's ability to collect information.
Fan Li readily paid five hundred medium-grade spirit stones.
The person in the mirror smiled and said, "Thank you for your trust, fellow Taoist."
"Do you need anything else, fellow Daoist?"
Fan Li thought about it and decided that since she was already here, she might as well find out who had issued the killing order for her in Juemingtang.
The information of Juemingtang is difficult to obtain, and therefore expensive. It requires ten high-quality spirit stones, but it can be found out the next day.
The person in the mirror saw that Fan Li acted so readily and knew that he was a wealthy man, and his attitude was quite respectful.
Fan Li was about to leave, but as if she thought of something, she sat down again.
The person in the mirror smiled and said, "Do you have any other needs, fellow Taoist?"
"This time I want to sell information." Fan Li said.
The person in the mirror said "Oh" with interest.
A gleam of light flashed across Fan Li's eyes: "About the Tianji Sect, the secret past of Master Yunmeng."
The person in the mirror became even more interested after hearing this.
After listening to Fan Li, the person in the mirror touched his chin and sighed, "I didn't expect that the seemingly spotless Sect Master Mu actually had such a shameful past. Just now you said that his little disciple is actually his daughter?"
Fan Li: “That’s right.”
The man in the mirror crossed his arms, pondered for a while, and said, "Although this information is shocking, I'm afraid the price won't be very high."
After all, it's just a piece of gossip that people enjoy talking about.
Fan Li's original intention was not to make money, she just wanted to cause trouble for Master Yunmeng.
Fan Li smiled and said, "I can give you this information for free, but I have a small request."
The person in the mirror thought this guest was very interesting. "What do you want?"
"Help me spread the word."
The person in the mirror laughed and said cheerfully without asking any more questions, "Sure. Daoist friend, do you have any other information to sell?"
“Not for now.”
"Then fellow Daoist, remember to come to Piao Miao Pavilion tomorrow to receive the information."
Fan Li nodded, bowed and said, "Goodbye."
Alan was squatting on the ground. When he saw Fan Li coming out of Piaomiao Pavilion, he quickly followed him.
"Is everything going well, sister?"
Fan Li nodded slightly and said, "Take me to the inn closest to Lingbaozhai."
Alan said, "No problem. The nearest inn is Lingyunxuan. But because the auction is about to start, there may not be any vacancies there."
Fan Li said, "Let's go first and talk about it later."
Alan stopped talking and led the way quietly.
When we arrived at Lingyunxuan, it was already fully booked just as Alan had said.
Fan Li didn't force it and asked Alan to take her to another inn.
Alan was afraid that Fan Li would miss the opportunity again and get tired, so she suggested that Fan Li rest in Lingyunxuan while she went to explore the way first.
Fan Li had no objection, as she also wanted to try Lingyunxuan's delicious food.
"Wait a minute, take this."
Alan looked at the spiritual jade in his hand and immediately understood what Fan Li meant.
Her sister was afraid that a little beggar like her wouldn't be able to enter the inn, so she gave her a certificate that could scare others.
"Sister, wait for me here, I'll be back soon!" Alan ran out without saying a word, working very hard.
Fan Li ordered some delicacies containing spiritual power at Lingyunxuan, sat down on the second floor, and waited for Alan to come back.
Fan Li likes to enjoy delicious food alone in a quiet place, so he chose a seat by the window, which has a good view and can take in the beautiful scenery outside the window.
But every time she relaxed, there would always be a few bad apples that would ruin her mood.
Su Muqing, Han Shouyu and Lin Zichen entered Fan Li's field of vision.
It wasn't surprising to see them here, after all, they were on the same teleportation array as her.
But Fan Li was a little confused because there were only three of them here.
Isn’t Song Xixi with them?
At the same time that Fan Li noticed them, the three of them also became aware of Fan Li's presence.
When they saw Fan Li, the three of them were stunned.
Fan Li withdrew his gaze, making no secret of his annoyance towards them, and immediately used his spiritual power to close the window, completely blocking their sight.
There was a slight bang, and the three of them came back to their senses instantly.
The light in their eyes gradually dimmed.
Xiao Qi was so unwilling to see them that she didn't even bother to show her face. They had wanted to go up and say hello to her...
Han Shouyu felt really uncomfortable and couldn't help but say something that didn't make him feel right: "Is it because she practiced the ruthless way that she became so rude? She was clearly not like this before!"
In the past, at this time, Lin Zichen would definitely rush up to teach Fan Li a lesson, but now he could only remain silent.
Su Muqing glanced at Lin Zichen. His impression of Fifth Junior Brother was that he was a playboy with an eccentric and talkative personality. It was rare to see such a negative side of him.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
Su Muqing couldn't help but worry.
There is no doubt that Lin Zichen is the most impetuous among them.
An impetuous character is not conducive to consolidating his Dao heart. His cultivation is low and he does not practice diligently on a daily basis. Once he experiences a major setback, his Dao heart will be easily affected.
In mild cases, one’s spiritual practice may become unstable and one’s cultivation may regress; in severe cases, one may develop inner demons.
The inner demon is absolutely fatal to the cultivators.
As the eldest senior brother, Su Muqing could not watch his junior brother go to destruction.
He must do something for him, otherwise Fifth Junior Brother would not be able to get out of this situation on his own.
It is not difficult to guess that the fifth junior brother’s knot must be related to Xiaoqi.
Thinking of this, Su Muqing felt a headache again.
Fan Li is no longer their Xiao Qi. Now she even thinks it is unnecessary to look at them. What should he do to cheer Lin Zichen up again?
Got it!
Su Muqing put his hands on Lin Zichen's shoulders, stared at him seriously and said, "Old Five, do you want to get Xiao Qi's forgiveness?"
"But Senior Brother, Xiao Qi no longer recognizes me. She will never forgive me." Lin Zichen's shoulders slumped a little more and he looked listless.
There is another very important point he didn't dare to say.
It is very likely that Fan Li was hunted by the Juemingtang because of him.
Lin Zichen didn't dare to face this result and was in great pain.
Su Muqing held his shoulders tightly and said sternly, "Old Five, since you recognize your mistakes, you should make amends."
Lin Zichen was stunned and asked: "Make up for it?"
Su Muqing: "To be precise, it's atonement!"
Lin Zichen seemed to understand something and his eyes slowly widened.
Su Muqing put his other hand on Han Shouyu's shoulder and said to his two junior brothers in a serious tone: "Let's atone for Xiaoqi's sins together!"
It was an unchangeable fact that Fan Li practiced the ruthless way, and because of this, they could not give up.
Lin Zichen and Han Shouyu were moved. The eldest brother's words were like a beacon on the sea, clearing away the heavy fog, sweeping away the confusion and depression of the past few days, and giving them a direction to work towards.
The two nodded heavily and decided to atone for Fan Li together with the eldest brother.
Lin Zichen's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Not just us, we also have to convince the second and third senior brothers!"
Su Muqing was very pleased to see Lin Zichen was so aware.
He believed that as long as they were united as brothers, they would be able to win back Fan Li's heart!
Even if he and Fan Li cannot become Taoist companions, Fan Li cannot leave their Xuanji Peak. She will always be a member of their Xuanji Peak.
