Chapter 91: Seeking Wealth Amidst Danger

An old lady? An old lady living in a ring?

Whose grandma resides in a ring?

Initially, Bei Chenheng felt he was being played, but then he sensed a hint of unusual flavor.

What if the old lady didn't have a physical body?

Well, calling her an old lady might not be appropriate.

She might be an esteemed senior, considering her ability to save someone from a Saint even without a physical form.

Losing so much power and still having the ability to intervene meant she was once a Saint King!

And residing in a ring… Bei Chenheng thought it through, realizing that the ring must be a treasure nurturing her soul.

The more he thought about it, the brighter Bei Chenheng's eyes became.

This was a big catch! Recruiting a young genius was one thing, but getting a Saint King along with it?

Rebuilding a physical body was a challenging task for a lone cultivator, given the scarcity of precious materials.

However, in the Great Yin Dynasty, it was a different story.

Bei Chenheng could only say it was a small loss, considering the value of a Saint King.

"Senior, you must have information on Feng Nishang's whereabouts!" Bei Chenheng asked eagerly. Various forces were now searching for Feng Nishang.

Some were aiding Radiant Light Holy Land, some had their own motives, and others simply wanted to recruit her.

If he didn't act quickly, he might miss the opportunity.

"Senior, to know Feng Nishang's whereabouts, how much is that information worth?" Bei Chenheng rubbed his hands together and inquired.

"One Heavenly… Holy Lord Grade item," Li Yun stated, contemplating saying Heavenly Transformation Grade but decided against it.

Considering Feng Nishang's possession of the old lady in her ring, he changed his mind.

The disappearance of a young genius might not be valuable, but coupled with an unknown senior, it was worth something.

"Not too expensive." Bei Chenheng was about to complain but quickly changed his tune.

Suppressing his subsequent words, he pulled out another Holy Lord Grade spiritual herb and placed it in Li Yun's hand.

"She is leaving from the border of the Ye Clan, amidst the endless yellow sand," Li Yun said casually.

"Thank you, Senior!" Bei Chenheng exclaimed with joy, he quickly turned and left.

The Imperial Ye Clan's border was not close, and as for the Yellow Sands thousands of miles away, it was even farther.

He had to hurry over; if he arrived late, Feng Nishang might be captured.

Just as Bei Chenheng left, Liu Chengxue hurried down from upstairs.

She held a communication jade slip, approached Li Yun, and delicately asked, "Senior, do you have any information about Feng Nishang?"

"Hmm?" Li Yun glanced at Liu Chengxue, then lowered his head to look at the communication jade slip in her hand.

Suddenly, he understood.

It turns out this was from the Great Luo Sword Sect, and they also had their eyes on Feng Nishang.

After all, Feng Nishang was a cultivator of the way of the sword. Naturally suited to the Great Luo Sword Sect, if she could join, it wouldn't just be obtaining a genius for free, but also gaining a sword cultivation heritage.

Who wouldn't be tempted?

If the Great Luo Sword Sect knew that Feng Nishang had a Saint King standing behind her, they would undoubtedly do everything to secure her.

"You folks at the Great Luo Sword Sect have Yan Qingshuang, ranked one hundred… uh… ninety-nine on the Heavenly Genius Ranking! She's a true genius!" Li Yun remarked lightly.

"My master said that if Feng Nishang is willing to join the Great Luo Sword Sect, Senior Sister Yan Qingshuang is willing to yield her position as the Eldest Senior Sister to her!" Liu Chengxue solemnly conveyed.

"You folks at the Great Luo Sword Sect are truly ambitious," Li Yun commented. "No faction on the Heavenly Genius Ranking has managed to have two geniuses so far. Are you not afraid of overplaying your hand, especially considering your Ancestor isn't around, and a single Great Saint can dominate you?"

"My master said, 'Fortune favors the bold,'" Liu Chengxue whispered.

"Alright," Li Yun sighed helplessly. "One Holy Lord Grade item, but you might not have—"

Before he could finish, Liu Chengxue flipped her delicate hand, revealing a Holy Lord Grade longsword that emitted a sharp aura.

"Huh?" Li Yun was puzzled.

Where did she get that?

After checking Liu Chengxue's template, he instantly understood.

It seemed that Duan Wuly casually left her a storage ring when he visited last time. Unexpectedly, it came in handy!

"At the border of the Ye Clan, amidst the endless yellow sand," Li Yun said.

"Thank you, Senior." Liu Chengxue expressed her gratitude and prepared to relay the message to her master.

"Tell Sect Master Ren Qingtu to send over a hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, or else I'll tear the contract!" Li Yun glanced at Liu Chengxue and said playfully.

With Liu Chengxue's cultivation soaring to the peak of Aperture Connection Realm during this period, reaching the Divine Power Realm wasn't far off.

When she reached two hundred years old, she might even make it onto the Heavenly Genius Ranking.

Helping the Great Luo Sword Sect cultivate a monstrous Heavenly Genius while gaining a hundred thousand spirit stones—it was a bargain.

"Understood, Senior." Liu Chengxue smiled gracefully, acknowledging the request, and headed upstairs.
