Deng Pinghai smiled and tossed out a communication talisman... a white one.
"How about this, I think Brother Qiu shouldn’t be in a hurry to leave our Great Love City. Why don’t you reconsider? But about joining the Ghost Seeking Cave... I advise Brother Qiu to be cautious."
"Make sure not to choose the wrong side."
Deng Pinghai said as he ford a hand seal, and his figure transford into a puff of black smoke, leaving from above the seat.
This spell is quite showy... Ji Yuan felt a bit tempted, thinking that Second Brother Yun Qianzai might like it.
After all, those who can disappear on the spot like this are mostly Golden Core cultivators. They maneuver the Golden Core Escape Light to co and go without a trace.
Once Deng Pinghai left, only Ji Yuan and Wu Yunbo remained in the tavern.
So Ji Yuan’s gaze naturally fell on this "informant."
Wu Yunbo was even more carefree, dropping to his knees before Ji Yuan at once with a softening of his legs.
"Elder, Elder Qiu, I truly had no choice. Since Bai Piao left, I’ve been scared of being poor!"
He said with a weeping face:
"If it weren’t for joining the Great Love Sect and having Brother Deng’s help, my tavern would have gone bankrupt long ago, not to ntion the possibility of a breakthrough in cultivation."
Ji Yuan didn’t speak but instead released his divine sense, which instantly encompassed the entire street.
Deng Pinghai... really had gone.
And there were no other Foundation Establishnt cultivators nearby either.
Earlier, when he had just stepped into the tavern, Wu Yunbo had already used a communication talisman.
Ji Yuan was acutely aware of this, but he didn’t stop it because he wanted to know the Foundation Establishnt cultivator behind Wu Yunbo. He initially thought it would be soone from the Ghost Seeking Cave.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a loose cultivator within Great Love City.
"Get up, introduce your Great Love Sect first."
Ji Yuan had no intention of killing Wu Yunbo. Not only was he a friend of Bai Piao, but killing him would be neither beneficial nor interesting.
"Yes, yes."
Seeing that Ji Yuan did not kill him right away, Wu Yunbo knew his life was spared. He stood up quickly, thought for a mont, and then said:
"Elder Qiu may not know, but this Great Love City originally belonged to our Great Love Sect. It was forcibly taken by the Joy Palace, resulting in the current situation."
"Oh?"
Ji Yuan indeed didn’t know about this.
"Great Love City was originally the city of the loose cultivator Great Love Zhenren; it was also a gathering place for many loose cultivators. Everything was fine initially until that ti... Great Love Zhenren went with a friend to the Fusian Island overseas to seize treasures, but unexpectedly died there."
Wu Yunbo explained:
"Later, the Joy Palace took the opportunity to occupy it, and our Great Love Sect dispersed until, until we welcod the direct descendant of Great Love Zhenren, who is now our sect leader, the Mourning Taoist."
"Has your sect leader ford his core?"
Ji Yuan asked.
"Well... it seems he hasn’t." Wu Yunbo said, sowhat awkwardly.
"So, he hasn’t. How many Foundation Establishnt cultivators do you have altogether? Don’t tell just the five Foundation Establishnt loose cultivators in this city."
"Of course not. Those five elders are just our visible strength; secretly, we have three more Foundation Establishnt cultivators." Wu Yunbo spoke with a sense of pride.
The implication was that Ji Yuan should join quickly.
Of course, it was only because Ji Yuan’s background reassured him that he dared to say so much. If he wasn’t sure about Ji Yuan’s background...
He wouldn’t be so forthcoming.
"Eight Foundation Establishnt cultivators, that’s just barely enough. Earlier, Deng Pinghai said he plans to attack the Ghost Seeking Cave?"
Who are you planning to target then? The Divine Eagle Palace is too strong for you to handle. The Celestial Fire Cave and Red Dragon Gang are about equal with your Great Love Sect. The weakest is the Blood Prison Sect, is it possible it’s the Blood Prison Sect?
Ji Yuan asked in a deep voice.
Wu Yunbo showed an awkward expression on his face, "This junior doesn’t know. If they really decide to take action, it would be those Foundation Establishnt cultivators doing the work, while we Qi Cultivation cultivators are not relevant."
As he spoke, Ji Yuan’s divine sense remained locked onto him.
He didn’t seem to be lying.
In matters like this, it’s reasonable for a Qi Cultivation cultivator to not know. If he could imdiately say who they were targeting, that would indeed be suspicious.
Wu Yunbo, seeing Ji Yuan remain silent, hurriedly added another sentence.
"But surely, they want to overthrow a faction inside and replace it; only then can we strengthen the divine might of our Great Love Sect, attracting more heroes to join."
"Aren’t you afraid of attracting the Joy Palace?"
Ji Yuan scoffed, making Wu Yunbo feel quite awkward.
"Well, I’ll go back and think about it. This matter... is not urgent."
Ji Yuan said, waving his wide sleeve and standing up.
Wu Yunbo quickly bowed again, "This junior has heard that this war might start in two to three months, so if Elder has any thoughts, an early decision is essential. If not... it’s best to leave quickly."
Those words were truly sincere.
Especially the advice that Ji Yuan should leave quickly.
"Got it."
Ji Yuan waved his hand and walked out the door.
A day later.
After wandering around for a long ti and using another Transformation Talisman, Ji Yuan finally returned to his lodgings.
When abroad, caution is paramount.
Back at his place, he was still contemplating this matter.
From what Deng Yunhai said, the Great Love Sect’s plan to invade the Ghost Seeking Cave seed to be out in the open; it was just because he was new here that he didn’t know.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have ntioned it right after eting.
In that case, the current issue is whether or not to get involved in this war.
As for the Corrupted Yin Spruce, he had also checked with several shops in Great Love City over the past few days; no matter how big or small, he had inquired.
