"I want that Treasure Map. If possible, could you sell it to ? Whatever you want, I can satisfy you—Spirit Stones, Alchemy Materials, Cultivation thods, Qin Strange Arts… everything I can bring out." Qing Shuang lightly extended her jade-like arm, stretching out her slender fingers. Her expression was quite solemn as she looked at Chen Fei and spoke.
That Treasure Map?
Hearing this, Chen Fei froze. No matter how many possibilities he had run through in his heart, he had never expected that she had co for this.
But that… but isn't that sothing that belongs to the Pei Family? She's an outsider, and she's interested too?
"Lord Qing Shuang, can you give a reason? You should know that during the day, those people outside gave a step down, and I didn't take it. Now… I don't think you can put more pressure on than they did."
Chen Fei narrowed his eyes as he spoke.
No matter what she ant, this thing, this Treasure Map—honestly, he really didn't want to take it out and sell it!
It's not that he's coveting that so-called treasure left behind by the Qingyue Pill King, but now that he's already stirred up so much trouble, if the thing isn't even in his own hands anymore, wouldn't that be far too unjust?
"…I'm not trying to force you. It's just, just that…" Qing Shuang's beautiful eyes flickered, dimming a little. She shook her head, then spoke again: "During the day, the one talking with Ruan Qinglong was the Head Elder of the Pei Family of Ghost Wolf City's main branch, stationed here for the Pei Family of Eagle Gorge. Do you know what level of expert that is?"
"Head Elder?" Chen Fei's eyes flickered. "Oh? What level of expert? I'm all ears."
"Second Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm!"
As those few words left Qing Shuang's soft lips, a powerful aura unfolded from her body, incomparably terrifying as it swept in all directions. It was like a blade-keen airflow violently crashing against Chen Fei's body, shoulders, hair, face… bursting out with muffled booms, peng peng peng.
All of this made Chen Fei's pupils shrink on the spot.
"I can help you block him. Of course, that's only part of the transaction terms. I'll repeat myself: whatever you want—Spirit Stones? Alchemy Materials? Cultivation thods? Qin Strange Arts… as long as it's sothing I, Qing Shuang, can obtain, I can swear an oath upon the Great Dao to find it and deliver it to you."
Qing Shuang's expression was dim as she blinked at Chen Fei, licking her rosy lips. It wasn't deliberate, but it truly looked extrely seductive. Her voice was soft and numbing, drilling into one's heart.
She said, "But as the price in exchange, please give that Treasure Map. Can you?"
"Cave Master!"
At this mont, a startled shout ca from far and near. It was Yan Zhou, the Iron Lion. He seed to have sensed that astonishing disturbance and ferocious aura Qing Shuang had released just now. His face was filled with shock.
Because he was actually quite familiar with how powerful that level of strength was!
Could it be that those bastards from the Pei Family had quietly snuck in!?
But when he rushed over and saw the incomparably stunning Qing Shuang, he couldn't help but freeze for an instant. What a beautiful woman…
Not just a girl, but a woman.
"Hiss! She, she…?" But then he realized that the source of that terrifying-level realm and aura was actually this woman? His expression changed abruptly, and a sheen of cold sweat silently slid down. His body tensed up!
Putting aside Qing Shuang's breathtaking allure, when the Iron Lion looked into her pupils, they were trembling. Because he could clearly feel the aura on her body and the terrifying Spiritual Energy fluctuations she was emitting.
Just how powerful was that kind of fluctuation! She had actually, truly, reached the Second Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm!?
She was an Expert of Second Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm?
Yan Zhou, the Iron Lion's gaze flashed with shock and uncertainty. He stuck out his tongue to lick his lips, his face stiff, trembling slightly.
"Cave Master, she… she's an Expert of Second Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm?" he finally asked slowly.
"I know." Chen Fei nodded. "You can go down first. It's fine, I'll talk to her alone."
Talk alone?
Yan Zhou, the Iron Lion's eyes trembled slightly, but he didn't say anything more. He bowed slightly to Chen Fei, then bowed slightly to Qing Shuang as well, before turning to leave.
However, he didn't go far, stopping outside the courtyard just in case.
Seeing that even soone like Yan Zhou, the Iron Lion, a Peak of First Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm expert, was so obedient to Chen Fei, Qing Shuang's eyes flickered with curiosity. "He's your follower?" she asked.
She had heard that Chen Fei seed to be a very powerful Alchemist. But could he be so powerful that he was worth a Peak of First Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm expert's allegiance?
If that were true, it would be truly shocking! Because even in Ghost Wolf City, there might not be anyone as young as Chen Fei, yet worthy of a Peak of First Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm expert's service—a monstrously talented Alchemist!
No! This couldn't just be called talent, it was monstrous genius, a freak of nature!
At such a young age, he would truly be a heaven-defying Alchemist monster in talent and potential!
"No, he's just my subordinate… Forget it, let's talk business. Lord Qing Shuang, can you tell why you want this Treasure Map? As far as I know, doesn't this thing belong to the Pei Family?" Chen Fei shook his head and spoke.
"The Pei Family?"
Upon hearing this, Qing Shuang's eyes flickered, a trace of anger, hatred, and helplessness flashing through them. In the end, she still shook her head and said in an even tone, "Actually, my surna is Pei as well. My real na is Pei Qingshuang."
"Your surna is also Pei?" Chen Fei was stunned, and then his expression darkened sowhat as he looked at her with a trace of coldness. "I really didn't expect that in this tiny Azure Dragon Ravine, you, Lord Qing Shuang, such a great Buddha, would be hidden here. The people outside, most of them don't know, do they?"
Feeling Chen Fei's change in attitude, Qing Shuang's eyes flickered slightly. Her soft lips curved into a faint smile, but then her expression still beca sowhat complicated.
"Actually, my identity isn't what you think. I'm not on the sa side as those people outside who claim to be from the Pei Family." Qing Shuang said faintly.
"Oh?" Chen Fei was stunned again, his gaze flickering. "Apologies, Lord Qing Shuang…"
He didn't continue to ask, because he wasn't sure whether he should.
"Six hundred years ago, our ancestor exhausted his life's strength to lead our Pei Family and plant roots in Ghost Wolf City, becoming one of its inhabitants. But at that ti, our Pei Family's power was actually very ordinary. We might not even have counted as Third Tier."
Seeing that Chen Fei had fallen silent, Qing Shuang's beautiful eyes flashed. In the end, she sighed and began speaking to herself, "But at that ti, although our Pei Family's temple was small, it still had three branches."
"Three branches?" Chen Fei murmured curiously.
