The woman was Lingmu. After being burned by the scale powder last time, Hongyu took her to a quiet place to recuperate.
At this moment, she was speaking to the woman in the black dress by the window: "It has been investigated and found that there is no Azure Vein in Lingyou Valley at all. Instead, it seals a giant vine demon!"
"The vine demon..."
Mu Shuangshuang, as always, fiddled with her fingers. Only after hearing this did she look up and say, "Late stage of the Spirit Void Realm, possibly even a Void Cave Realm vine demon... It can't be some unknown nobody. Can you find out its identity?"
"This... the news coming from the valley seems to be related to the Demonic Sect and the Dark Abyss..."
"Dark Abyss? Demonic Sect... that sounds familiar..."
After pondering for a while without reaching a conclusion, Mu Shuangshuang said again, "If we could recruit this level of combat power to our ranks..."
"It seems quite possible!"
Lingmu stepped forward and whispered, "I heard from the people in the valley that this wisteria demon originally came for revenge, but was stopped by a human boy, and in the end, she even willingly left with that boy!"
"A little boy?" Mu Shuangshuang raised her hand and tapped her delicate chin. "The one who poked your butt?"
"..."
Lingmu's face immediately turned a deep liver color.
Sure enough, this is a joke I'll probably never get over!
"Then I don't know..." Lingmu rubbed her buttocks, looking resentful: "If that's the case, so what?"
"If that's the case, then that's interesting!"
Mu Shuangshuang tossed the hem of her knee-length black skirt, a playful smile on her face: "Isn't it something to be happy about that we can still find such an interesting young man in this boring world?"
What do you mean by "interesting"?
Are you kidding me? I was bent over like that!
"Relax..."
Mu Shuangshuang propped her head up with her hand, looked out at the night sky, and a strange smile appeared on her lips: "He's still a man after all. There are many ways to deal with him, aren't there?"
...
On the other side, Shen Yunhao walked out of Tianbao Pavilion with satisfaction.
Another longsword, now sheathed, appeared in his hand.
However, this time it was no ordinary item, but a genuine high-grade spiritual treasure, which cost Shen Yunhao a full three thousand spirit stones!
As for these spirit stones, they were naturally given to him by Shu Wuxin before his departure.
Lingyou Valley is located in the Cangmang Mountains and is surrounded by several spiritual mountains. The spiritual stones produced there naturally belong to Lingyou Valley.
Lingyou Valley has very little interaction with the outside world. Most of the spirit stones are distributed to disciples for cultivation and seclusion. Over the years, the valley has indeed accumulated a lot of spirit stones and can be considered quite wealthy.
Originally, Shen Yunhao wouldn't have received these spirit stones, but after it was confirmed that Qing Teng would leave with Shen Yunhao, Shu Wuxin generously gave her ten thousand spirit stones.
For ordinary cultivators, this is already a considerable fortune, enough to buy some Xuan-level magic treasures and artifacts at auctions.
But what made Shen Yunhao rather embarrassed was that these spirit stones looked more like a dowry that Shu Wuxin had prepared for Qing Teng...
Since Shen Yunhao's cultivation level was insufficient, he was unable to use storage magic treasures, so these spirit stones were all entrusted to Qing Teng for safekeeping.
The little guy has become Shen Yunhao's portable piggy bank, and when he's not busy, he turns into a small vine and hangs on Shen Yunhao's wrist.
Furthermore, regarding the top-grade spiritual treasure, the Guixue Sword, Shen Yunhao actually got a bargain.
Generally speaking, a top-grade spiritual treasure would cost more than this, but this Guixue Sword had been damaged to some extent before, which caused its price to drop by about half.
According to the manager of Tianbao Pavilion, this sword needs to be repaired by a master craftsman who can inscribe array patterns before it can truly unleash the power of a top-grade spiritual treasure.
Otherwise, its current effectiveness is only slightly stronger than some mid-grade spiritual treasures.
Buying this sword was somewhat of a coincidence. When he walked over and saw the description, he thought the name "Gui Xue Sword" was good, so he asked Mo Yan behind him if he could repair the array patterns on it.
It was just a casual question, but to my surprise, Mo Yan immediately nodded.
"Child's play..."
Only then did Shen Yunhao realize that this guy seemed to be a genuine Void Realm cultivator...
He suddenly had the feeling that in those novels, the protagonist is accompanied by an old man with a white beard.
He immediately wanted to buy the magical treasures that had been discounted due to the damage to the magic array, have Mo Yan repair them, and then resell them to make a fortune.
Then he got beaten up by Mo Yan.
"Do you know how many Void Realm cultivators there are on the mainland? I could easily slaughter a low-level sect right now, and spirit stones would pour in like water! And you actually want me to do your hard labor and repair these broken toys?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunhao's initial joy at having gained an advantage vanished, leaving him feeling utterly bored.
"Why bother with all this nonsense? Just take me shopping for clothes already!"
Of course, the reason Mo Yan agreed to help him repair the sword was because she knew that Shen Yunhao had a particular fondness for swords.
Besides the influence of that sword fairy wife, Shen Yunhao also had a chivalrous dream that had been growing in his heart since childhood.
What boy wouldn't love to travel the world in white robes and with a sword?
Besides, it's that stinky older brother...
...
Shen Yunhao later gained a completely new understanding of the Illusionary Demon Qi that Mo Yan mentioned.
He had been worried that the cultivators of the Tai Xuan Dao Sect might discover the identity of the Green Vine Demon and whether he would be able to board the Lingxiao Flying Boat.
Even after he sat in the high-class cabin on the fifth floor of the airship, no one suspected the pretty little girl next to him.
"Brother Yunhao! I want to go play on the deck, will you come with me?"
Thinking back to the first time he rode the Lingxiao Flying Boat, he was just like her, wandering around like a curious child, and Shen Yunhao couldn't help but chuckle.
Then, an old friend came to mind.
"I wonder where Brother Ma has gone. If it weren't for the scale powder he gave us... maybe everything would be different!"
"As for Zhongzhou, I remember there's a Daoist named Ruyan in the Taixuan Dao Sect. Brother Ma should really like him!"
"This is so ripe... Ouch! Green Vine? Why did you hit me?"
Shen Yunhao rubbed his head, looking completely confused.
Qing Teng pouted, looking displeased: "What naughty things is Brother Yun Hao thinking about?"
"???"
...
In the evening, after finally coaxing the little one to sleep, Shen Yunhao went to the cubicle alone.
This is the advantage of a large room; it costs more spirit stones, but it gives you plenty of privacy.
Shen Yunhao found a table and then eagerly lit the white dragon lantern in his hand.
Seven days have passed, and it's time to have a long phone conversation with my adorable little white dragon again.
However, this time when the image became clear, the face of a beautiful woman appeared on the other side.
The woman frowned slightly, revealing a strange expression: "You're the heart thief? How come you're just a little kid who hasn't even grown his first hair yet?"
