Chapter 463: Chapter 435: Trade at Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion
Three days later.
At sunset.
Li Fan was sitting cross-legged underwater, meditating with his eyes closed.
Suddenly, he sensed the yellow light glowing from the broken stone and quickly opened his eyes.
After standing up, he asked, “Well? What about the exam? Is it legitimate?”
“Ha ha, you did a great job this time!” A sense of excitement echoed in the voice of the disembodied face.
“The exam paper is authentic! Not a single mistake!”
“I had always heard that the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals appears bright and shiny on the outside, but inside it’s already rotten to the core. Yet, it’s far worse than what the rumors suggest!”
“Such a critical matter as the entrance exam, which is related to the future and destiny of the organization, could even be utilized for personal benefits!”
“And this is only what the Tianyu State Heng Family is doing!”
“How about those more powerful? I don’t even dare to imagine!”
The disembodied face seemed to have taken a huge shock, heaving sigh after sigh, full of disbelief.
At this moment, Li Fan responded: “Isn’t this better for us? The faster the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals perishes, the sooner our Five Elders’ Organization will unify the Xuanhuang World.”
The disembodied face nodded, “Exactly! Victory will eventually belong to our Five Elders’ Organization!”
He paused, allowing his excited emotions to gradually subside.
With a solemn expression, he instructed, “We must act quickly, proceed to contact He Zhenghao and get hold of the remaining exam papers as soon as possible.”
“The location for the trade deal will be within the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.”
“I will have someone dispatched there. You’ll be responsible for the reception.”
“By the way, to make sure the remaining exam papers are correct, you must wait until the end of the exam and receive notification before letting him go.”
The disembodied face carefully instructed Li Fan on numerous things to note, and, after laying out the contact mode, he finally disappeared.
As per usual, Li Fan destroyed all traces on site before returning to Taian Island.
Deep within the Protective Array, Li Fan and his clone sat facing each other.
“Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion…”
Li Fan had been there before.
It was where He Zhenghao stored the “Detailed Explanation of Hundred Channels Formation”, his inheritance, before his tragic death in his twelfth reincarnation.
Located on Youlan Island in the Misthaven Ocean.
In his past life, Zhou Qingang managed to acquire the Spirit Stone supply from the disembodied face through this place.
“It seems that this place may be one of the Five Elders’ Organization’s hidden bases.”
After pondering for a bit, Li Fan immediately used the [One-Handed Sky Shrouding Technique], put on the [Concealing Talisman], and hid the cultivation level of his clone, waiting for the people from the Five Elders’ Organization to arrive.
The main body, on the other hand, had randomly changed its appearance and used the Teleportation Array to get to Youlan Island in advance.
After half a day, when his main body had already laid low in the sea area outside Youlan Island.
On Taian Island, a cultivator suddenly appeared in the Teleportation Array.
The individual’s appearance was unidentifiable. After arriving at Taian Island, he first wandered in the air above the island, then appeared to shake his head and sigh.
He remained still in the air for a while before taking off slowly.
Li Fan’s clone silently followed the individual.
That individual didn’t fly at a fast pace, rather slowly, as if deliberately waiting.
After leaving Taian Island for some distance, he entered a deserted uninhabited sea area.
He suddenly stopped and asked through voice transmission, “Why are you following me secretly?”
As instructed by the disembodied face on the broken stone, Li Fan’s clone did not reply.
Instead, he directly launched an attack with a palm charged with yellow earth attribute energy.
The individual seemed to not expect Li Fan to launch a surprise attack without saying a single word, and was taken aback, offering no resistance.
Just as Li Fan’s palm was about to hit him, the earth attribute suddenly turned into a wood attribute.
The person didn’t dodge nor avoid it, but just took Li Fan’s slap, standing still.
“Let’s go. We’re heading to Youlan Island.”
After verifying Li Fan’s identity, he didn’t greet him, instead using a strange voice to direct him.
“Teleportation Array?” Li Fan asked.
“Flying there.”
Having said that, he approached and grabbed Li Fan, then stepped forward.
The scenery around them shifted quickly – even when compared to the Dustcrosser Boat that Li Fan rode in his previous life, it was only slightly slower.
“Is this the speed of the God Transformation Stage?”
“Or maybe it’s a Nascent Soul Monk who’s specialized in speed…”
Li Fan was calm and composed in his heart, without looking too closely at the cultivator beside him.
He remained silent throughout the journey.
Shortly after, that individual brought Li Fan to Youlan Island.
He scanned around, but found no trace of He Zhenghao.
“Have you informed He Zhenghao?”
Then, he asked again as if to confirm it.
Li Fan nodded, “Or should I ask him again where he is?”
The man stopped Li Fan, “Just wait. It’s best not to use the Communication Talisman.”
Seemingly hinting at something, Li Fan nodded in agreement.
At the same time, his main body candidly flew towards the location of the two people.
Before long, the pick-up monk from the Five Elders’ Organization noticed the approach of the main body.
He furrowed his brows and heightened his guard.
Li Fan arrived nonchalantly before the two: “You must be Zhou Qingang?”
“I was sent by He Zhenghao.”
As these words came out, both the monk from the Five Elders’ Organization and Li Fan’s clone changed color.
He first glanced at “Zhou Qingang”, then his face became cold, and he asked in a cold voice, “What do you mean, fellow daoist?”
Li Fan seemed unbothered and nonchalant, replying, “What do you mean, what do I mean? Of course, I came for the trade deal.”
“Why didn’t He Zhenghao come here himself?” The monk from the Five Elders’ Organization hesitated for a moment and then asked.
Li Fan scoffed, “Would he dare to do such a dangerous thing personally? If the plan goes exposed, wouldn’t he be implicated?”
“It seems you guys don’t know him very well.”
The monk from the Five Elders’ Organization glanced at “Zhou Qingang” again.
And continued to ask, “So if you’re caught, wouldn’t it implicate him? With a contribution of five million, is he really that confident in you?”
Li Fan seemed to be totally impatient now, “That’s not your concern. Are we doing the deal or not?”
“If not, I’ll leave. You guys, who walk in the underworld, still being so timid!”
Li Fan looked at the two unhappily.
“After all, who cares who we trade with, so long as the exam is genuine, right?”
The voice was loud and resounding, with no attempt at concealing anything.
The monk from the Five Elder’s Organization changed color slightly and instinctively surveyed his surroundings.
After thinking for a moment, he felt that there was some truth to what the other party said.
After glaring at “Zhou Qingang”, he sternly said, “Fine, keep your voice down.”
“Come with me.”
Then, leading the two of them, he entered the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.
none of the staff inside paid any attention to them.
Not until they reached the secret room, deep inside, were they interrupted at all.
Once they had sealed the secret room, the monk from the Five Elders’ Organization asked in a somber voice, “Where is the exam?”
Li Fan shot back, “Where is the five million?”
“Cash in one hand…”
“Goods in the other…”
The two echoed each other. They stared at each other for a moment.
After a standoff, they finally exchanged Storage Rings.
“You can’t leave now.” The monk from the Five Elder’s Organization said coldly.
“I know, I know! You’re afraid that the exam is not correct, right?” Li Fan acted boldly and fearlessly.
“Look at you guys, such a bunch of country bumpkins.”
his face showed a trace of disdain he casually sat down, crossed his legs and said.
“It’s okay, I will wait here till the end of the exam.”
