Chapter 1365: Chapter 554: Together to Black Mountain [Subscription Request]
Tianyuan Immortal City.
After Zhou Chun hurried back here, he did not visit Luo Qingni immediately, but first investigated the situation of the pursuit of the Dual-Headed Black Flood Dragon from a few years ago, as well as the situation of Thunder Cliff Valley.
Several years have passed, and the matter with the Dual-Headed Black Flood Dragon has come to an end.
The final result was unsurprising; the Dual-Headed Black Flood Dragon successfully escaped. It is said to have fled to a country in the northeast called Qu Country, and has since vanished without a trace.
Considering how it had been hidden in the Black Mist Marsh for who knows how many years without detection, the chances of finding it again shortly after its disappearance are virtually nil.
Anyway, the Great Zhou Kingdom has basically given up on this matter and only issued a high bounty notice casually.
As for the unfortunate Kuanglei True Person, there is still no news. The closure strategy of Thunder Cliff Valley has not changed, and it is unknown how long the closure will last.
This suggests that Kuanglei True Person was indeed seriously injured, to the extent of having to isolate himself from external forces by sealing off the mountain.
For Zhou Chun, of course, this was good news, reassuring him enough to contact Luo Qingni.
Not long after, in the Qingni Residence, Zhou Chun, now disguised and with a new face, met with Luo Qingni again.
âHehe, Taoist Friend Zhou, you came quite quickly.â
Inside the cave residence, Luo Qingni looked at Zhou Chun, who had changed his appearance again, and couldnât help but smile, teasing him a bit.
To this, Zhou Chun jokingly replied, âTaoist Friend Luo sent a message summoning me, how dare I not come quickly? If I were late and kept you waiting, it would be my fault!â
Upon hearing this, Luo Qingni couldnât help but cover her mouth and laugh, âTaoist Friend Zhou, you do know how to joke. How dare Qingni blame you? You are now Qingniâs major client!â
After some mutual teasing, they finally got down to business.
Luo Qingni looked at Zhou Chun seriously and said, âLet me inform you, regarding the exchange conditions for the Jade Dew of Porcelain Flower, Qingni has reached an agreement with Huayue Valley. They are very interested in your 3,000-year-old Jade Marrow Ganoderma and are willing to exchange it for that item!â
âAs for the 3,000-year-old Gold Thread Bamboo, Qingni recently learned that a sect called Cold Crow Sect in Liang Country has been cultivating this spiritual medicine for generations, and they are likely to have a Gold Thread Bamboo that meets our age requirements!â
âQingni has also investigated the situation of Cold Crow Sect. Although they had a Nascent Soul Stage True Person in their ancestors, they have now declined. There are currently only six Golden Core Stage cultivators in the sect, with the highest cultivation level being at the Late Golden Core Stage.â
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately said, âExchanging the 3,000-year-old Jade Marrow Ganoderma for the Jade Dew of Porcelain Flower is not a problem, but how does Taoist Friend Luo plan to obtain the 3,000-year-old Gold Thread Bamboo?â
âThis is precisely why Qingni called you over,â
Luo Qingni nodded slightly and then said to Zhou Chun, âLiang Country is several countries away from Great Zhou. Qingni only learned about the general situation of Cold Crow Sect from a traveling Taoist friend from Liang Country and doesnât have a plan on how to exchange with them.â
âTherefore, to be safe, Qingni wants to invite Taoist Friend Zhou to accompany me to Liang Country. Letâs visit those Golden Core cultivators of Cold Crow Sect together and see what conditions they want in exchange for the spiritual medicine!â
From her words, it sounded like there were no personal connections to rely on this time, and she planned to seek the medicine directly in person.
This sort of thing is not uncommon in the cultivation world, as many Golden Core Stage cultivators do this to buy spiritual medicine or to buy materials for crafting Dharma Treasures.
However, without personal connections, going to a foreign country to buy rare spiritual medicine can be dangerous.
Especially considering Luo Qingni is a loose cultivator with no backing and an Alchemy Master, one cannot guarantee that no forces would have malicious intentions.
Understanding this, Zhou Chun naturally could not refuse and immediately agreed, âZhou Mou has no issues; when does Taoist Friend Luo plan to set off?â
âIn about half a month. This journey is not expected to be short, so Qingni needs to inform various parties and handle some matters first!â
Luo Qingni pondered slightly and then provided an answer.
âThen I will meet you outside the city in half a month,â
Zhou Chun nodded and agreed wholeheartedly.
Afterwards, he bid farewell to Luo Qingni and headed to Zhou Daoyiâs cave mansion.
Several years later, Zhou Daoyiâs injuries had fully healed, and he was now living quite comfortably in Tianyuan Immortal City.
Zhou Chun came here mainly to discuss some matters regarding the familyâs development over the years and to talk about some noteworthy things within the family.
For instance, how the Zhou Familyâs âHeavenly Spirit Morning Postâ became a bestseller, attracting the covetous eyes of the Moon Wheel Sect and Sunflame Sect.
Also, how he settled Thunder Flood Dragon Baibaiâs lair outside the Su Family Mountain Gate, and what considerations were behind this move.
Zhou Chun spoke about the various matters, picking out the more important ones.
However, Zhou Daoyi was more concerned about the situation of Zhou Zhiying, the junior with the top-grade Spirit Root Aptitude, and specifically asked Zhou Chun about it.
Zhou Chun could only relay the relevant details.
As he spoke, Zhou Daoyiâs eyes grew brighter, and in the end, he couldnât help but click his tongue and say, âTsk tsk, listening to you, Zhengchun, makes me want to meet this little girl Yingâer even more. Perhaps when you return to the family, I should secretly go and meet her with a hidden identity?â
