Chapter 394: Mutual Deception

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After flying for several thousand kilometers, Chen Chen stopped and found a deep mountain to hide in. He took off his mask and returned to his original appearance.

The instant he killed the Peach Blossom Sect master, he used the Haoran Sacred Light Technique to purify his opponent’s sea of consciousness. However, his divine senses had reached the intermediate stage of the Spirit Severing stage. After absorbing the divine senses of the initial stage of the Spirit Severing stage, the improvement seemed to be very small.

Shaking his head, Chen Chen took out his communication token.

“Grandmaster, I’ve escaped a calamity. How about you?”

“It’s good that you’re fine. I’m fine too. Hurry back to the sect. Once you’re in the sect, even that Demon Venerable won’t be able to do anything to us.”

Seeing his Grandmaster’s communication token, Chen Chen let out a long sigh of relief.

He didn’t know how the Peach Blossom Sect was doing now, nor did he know how that second Demon Venerable would react when he found out that the Peach Blossom Sect Master had fallen.

He only knew that he needed to rest now. It was fine that he had to go through the tribulation, but he still had to battle with the Peach Blossom Sect Master. That attack just now had poured out almost all of his strength.

At this moment, he just wanted to lie down and sleep.

...

Just like that, after half a day, Chen Chen woke up from his sleep. Although his brain was still a little groggy, the spiritual energy in his body had recovered quite a bit.

Without any delay, Chen Chen flew directly to the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect. He did not hesitate to take a big detour in the middle and avoided the Peach Blossom Sect from a distance.

When he returned to the sect, the first person he saw was, of course, the grandmaster.

At this moment, although his Grandmaster’s face was full of smiles, Chen Chen could see sadness and self-reproach from the depths of his eyes.

Chen Chen sighed in his heart. The reason that his grandmaster was like this must be because of the matter with Fairy Wu Nian.

Fairy Wu Nian went missing because she went out to look for grandmaster. It was impossible for his grandmaster not to blame himself.

If this matter could not be resolved, it would probably become Grandmaster’s obsession.

“Grandmaster, what was the treasure that day?”

Although Chen Chen knew what it was, he still mentioned it in order to change the topic.

“It was the Linglong Divine Gold.” Qing Mu did not have anything to hide from Chen Chen and replied directly.

“Then who ended up with the Linglong Divine Gold?”Chen Chen asked curiously.

“I’m not sure, but it was definitely in the hands of our group of people who participated in the auction.”.

“After the auction that day, there was a fight. During that time, some of the auctioneer’s followers and disciples took the opportunity to leave the auction house.”.

“I guess the Linglong Divine Gold was taken away by one of those people. Anyway, it was definitely not auctioned by an insider of the auction house.”.

“I heard from my master that the City Lord of Spirit Gold City doesn’t seek advancement. When faced with something like the Linglong Divine Gold, he would only keep a respectful distance.”

Hearing this, Chen Chen nodded and said softly, “Those who can afford so many Spirit Stones... are most likely Spirit Severing stage cultivators. Moreover, this Spirit Severing stage cultivator has a very strong foundation.”

“It’s hard to say. After the auction ended that day, the two Spirit Severing stage cultivators who participated in the auction started the dispute. The two of them joined hands in an attempt to suppress all of us Void Refinement realm cultivators and find the Linglong Divine Gold. However, not long after they made their move, they were all caught by the two demon supremacies of the Crimson Fiend sect.”

Qing Mu shook his head, his eyes filled with doubt.

When Chen Chen heard this, his eyes flickered and he asked, “Grandmaster, which one of you told the two Demon Venerables of the Crimson Fiend sect that it was possible that the auction house of the Spirit Gold City was auctioned off internally, resulting in the destruction of the Spirit Gold City?”

“I think... His name is something called Householder Yunshui. He was the first one to make a move that day.”

Qing Mu recalled for a moment and said.

When he heard this answer, a thought flashed through Chen Chen’s mind like a flash of lightning.

The Linglong Divine Gold was most likely bought by this cloud water Householder.

Although this person was a Spirit Severing stage cultivator, he was very rational. He knew that with his own cultivation, he would definitely not be able to defend the Linglong Divine Gold.

The first move that day was to mislead the cultivators, making them think that he wasn’t the one who bought the Linglong Divine Gold.

After that, he was accidentally captured by two Demon Venerables and misled two Demon Venerables, resulting in the destruction of Spirit Gold City.

Although there was no evidence, Chen Chen’s sixth sense told him that it was this person.

This person was still Zhou Lu’s master. Zhou Lu was a late-stage Void Refinement realm cultivator. After so many days of his master’s disappearance, how could he dare to rescue his master alone>

He did not have as many trump cards as Chen Chen did, nor was he as smart as Chen Chen was.

As for the importance of friendship...

Chen Chen closed his eyes and thought about it carefully.

In the secret prison, Zhou Lu’s expression was indeed joyful after seeing that his master had been saved. However, that joyful expression didn’t seem right.

It didn’t seem like he was excited after his family member had been saved. On the contrary, it seemed like he had been relieved of a heavy burden after surviving a disaster.

Then he thought about that Householder Yunshui... the person who had run away before him seemed to be him!

When he ran away, he didn’t even look at his disciple. They didn’t seem like a pair of master and disciple who were close to each other. Their feelings couldn’t even be compared to his and his Grandmaster’s.

After these scenes overlapped, Chen Chen was even more convinced of his own judgment.

Householder Yunshui should have bid for the Linglong Divine Gold, and after he got the Linglong Divine Gold, he handed it over to Zhou Lu, asking him to take the Linglong Divine Gold and leave the Spirit Gold City.

After that, he caused a ruckus in the auction house... and the reason he was so confident in Zhou Lu was most likely because Zhou Lu had a fatal weakness in his hands.

That was also the reason that Zhou Lu had no choice but to take the risk and return to the Spirit Gold City to save Householder Yun Shui.

“I see, this Householder Yun Shui sure knows how to scheme.”

Chen Chen muttered to himself, and then his eyes lit up as he turned around and flew out of the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect.

“Chen Chen, where are you going?”

His grandmaster’s voice came from behind him.

“I’m going out to look for something. I’ll be back soon!”Chen Chen replied loudly.

...

In less than two hours, Chen Chen arrived in front of the ruins of the Spirit Gold City once again.

If Zhou Lu had a fatal weakness that Householder Yun Shui had grasped, then he definitely didn’t have that much trust in Householder Yun Shui.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for him to bring the Linglong Divine Gold back to Householder Yun Shui’s residence.

If he were Zhou Lu, he would definitely hide the Linglong Divine Gold in a place that only he knew about. After that, he would tell Householder Yun Shui about the place.

This kind of place had to satisfy one characteristic, which was that it was very accessible. Only then would it be convenient for Householder Yun Shui to retrieve it.

Who knows, he might just randomly pick a dense forest and bury it.

All sorts of possibilities flashed through his mind. Chen Chen took a deep breath and didn’t think any further. He began to ask the system, “System, use a ten thousand kilometers tracking to search for the Linglong Divine Gold.”

“It’s 1,600 kilometers underground to the west of the host.”

Upon hearing this answer, Chen Chen’s eyes flashed with extreme excitement. As expected, Zhou Lu really hid the Linglong Divine Gold in a very casual place near the Spirit Gold City!

Now that his natal dharma treasure was waiting to be reforged, what he lacked was high-quality refining materials.

Under such circumstances, if he encountered the Linglong Divine Gold, he absolutely could not miss it.

...

Two hours later.

Chen Chen really found a storage ring under a rock in a deep mountain forest, and found the head-sized Linglong Divine Gold in the storage ring.

After obtaining the Divine Gold, Chen Chen left immediately.

...

After he left for less than fifteen minutes, a person arrived at this place.

However, this person was not Householder Yunshui, but Zhou Lu.

At this moment, Zhou Lu was extremely excited. That day, his master had given him a storage ring at the auction house and made him consume a highly toxic medicinal pill.

Only his master had the antidote for this medicinal pill, so he did not dare to run away with the treasure. After his master went missing, he had to think of a way to rescue him.

After learning that it was the Red Fiend sect who made the move, he was already in despair. He didn’t expect to meet Zhang Ji halfway and save his master.

After both of them escaped, the first thing they discussed was the treasure.

Since the treasure was in his hands, he proposed to get the antidote first and then leave. After he was far away from his master, Householder Yunshui, he would inform him of the location of the treasure through the communication token.

Householder Yun Shui was eager to obtain the Linglong Divine Gold, so he could only compromise in the end. However, he...reported a fake location far away from this place!

Thinking of this, he chuckled and carefully moved the stone away.

In the next second, his body suddenly froze, because the storage ring hidden under the stone had disappeared without a trace.

What was even more terrifying was that... at this time, an indifferent voice sounded from behind him.

“Disciple, you are still too inexperienced to plot against me.”
