Yu Xi’s eyes could barely conceal her excitement, and she nodded.
“Correct, the business agreement needs us to find Ku Mu Monarch and conclude the agreement’s mark, only then it would truly end, others can’t replace him.”
In her view, they were just one step away from success.
“Let’s go then, hope everything goes smoothly.”
Han Yi took the lead and walked into the Supreme Pavilion, followed closely by Yu Xi.
Han Yi’s current aura is at the Golden Core Stage, while Yu Xi’s aura is still at the Foundation Building late stage.
Han Yi showed his black iron level identity plate, a gift from the Supreme Pavilion when he purchased the Immortal Ship Spirit Talisman and other treasures at Tian Nan Immortal City. The plate contained over 900 points. If the points reached 10,000, they could be upgraded to a silver token.
After entering the trading palace corresponding to the Golden Core Cultivators, Han Yi directly told the shopkeeper that he was looking for Ku Mu Monarch. He had done business with Ku Mu Monarch before, and this time, he was going to give him a big order.
Although it was impolite for someone at the Golden Core Stage to seek an audience with a monarch, Supreme Pavilion was the exception. Deals exceeding a certain amount were only handled by the monarchs.
Furthermore.
Han Yi did not bring up matters belong to the Yu family.
However,
what surprised him was that Ku Mu Monarch was not there.
“He’s not here?”
“But this month was the time Ku Mu senior agreed with me, if I am late, I won’t be able to do this business.”
“Or, can you help me find out where Ku Mu senior is, I will go look for him.”
The shopkeeper was a middle-aged cultivator. Although he was only in the Foundation Building Stage, he remained composed and usual in front of Han Yi.
“I am sorry, guest if the honoured Monarch is not in the building, we don’t know where he went.”
“How about this, leave your contact details. If Ku Mu senior returns, I will have someone contact you, and then you can come to trade, how about it?”
After thinking for a moment, Han Yi reported a fake address, and then left with Yu Xi.
“Why is it like this?”
Yu Xi looked somewhat tranced.
“It was clearly agreed upon that Ku Mu Monarch would be waiting at a branch of the Supreme Pavilion three months from the deal. Now he’s not here, how can we do the trade?”
“But, the fake address which Master Wang gave, was it because he speculated that Ku Mu Monarch intentionally made it difficult for the Yu family?”
During this time, Han Yi had taken Yu Xi on a cautious tour of the Cultivation World. He taught her to be wary and careful, and she guessed the meaning behind Han Yi giving the fake address.
Han Yi did not confirm this, as he was not sure himself, but that did not prevent him from being prepared.
“We will find out in the next few days.”
“Let’s go.”
Han Yi took Yu Xi to an inn ten miles away called Spirit Immortal Inn. Although the Spirit Immortal Inn was not as grand as the Supreme Pavilion, it was also a considerable business in Daqin, specializing in accommodation. Yu Xi’s map marked the nearby Spirit Immortal Inn.
After checking in at the Spirit Immortal Inn, Han Yi took Yu Xi to another inn diagonally opposite. This inn, not as famous as the Spirit Immortal Inn, was called the Crossing Cloud Inn.
In the Crossing Cloud Inn.
As soon as Han Yi entered the bedroom, he habitually cast the Great Mysterious Qiankun Array. Instead of sending out his divine sense, he took out a mirror. In the mirror was the image of a room in the opposite Spirit Immortal Inn.
This was a premium magic tool called the Shadow Mirror. The mirror could show images within ten miles and was also called the Shadow Mirror.
This double insurance setup made Yu Xi respect him even more. Even if someone really came to the Spirit Immortal Inn to bother them, they could not guess where they were.
Defence and offence at will.
Yu Xi admired Han Yi and sighed.
There was nothing unusual on the same night.
The next day, Han Yi, as usual, practiced in his room. With the Great Mysterious Qiankun Array in place, he was quite at case.
There was nothing unusual on the second night.
On the third day, Han Yi was pleased to see that Yu Xi did not lose her patience and practiced cultivation with him.
Yu Xi’s progress over the month also impressed Han Yi.
This female cultivator had average combat strength but was highly capable of learning and adapting, proving herself to be teachable.
There was nothing unusual for seven consecutive days.
On the evening of the eighth day, Han Yi suddenly opened his eyes. A shadowsilently entered the room Han Yi had rented at the Spirit Immortal Inn.
It was a middle-aged cultivator.
Upon entering the room and finding no one, he was startled and exited the room quickly.
“It’s not Ku Mu Monarch.”
“Who is he then?”
Yu Xi also snapped out of her trance, her face tense. It was naturally incomprehensible to her why he had sneaked into their room at the Spirit Immortal Inn this late, and it definitely wasn’t to inform them that Ku Mu Monarch had returned.
Han Yi frowned slightly, “I haven’t seen him before.”
What Han Yi meant by ‘haven’t seen him before’, was that he wasn’t seen in the soul shadows of Tuoba Li and Tuoba An.
At least, he was not a Golden Core cultivator of the Zhang Family, nor was he Tuoba Tu.
“Don’t worry, let’s wait some more.”
The night passed without incident.
The next day.
To Han Yi’s surprise, when he entered the Spirit Immortal Inn, the shopkeeper informed him that someone had left him a message. It was a cultivator from the Supreme Pavilion. He informed Han Yi that Ku Mu Monarch would arrive in three days and asked him to come to Supreme Pavilion..
