Qi Tian lay on the ground, regaining his composure after a long while. However, he only felt a bit better, his head was still throbbing and his spirits were sapped. Without any special ans, it would take a long ti for him to recover.
Falling victim to the sche of the Ghost God Temple made Qi Tian realize their inscrutable tactics and caused him to reflect on his own protective asures, which were clearly insufficient. If he could have anticipated and taken preventive actions against this potential threat, he wouldn’t have suffered in this way. Furthermore, his reaction at the ti was flawed to so extent. Even though the half-step Golden Core from the Ghost God Temple, who he killed, acted too quickly for him to respond, had he reacted more swiftly and used the Heavenly Dao Engine to absorb that white figure as fuel, he wouldn’t have encountered this problem.
Damage to his soul, however minor, was unacceptable. Qi Tian began devising ways to find a quick solution. He initially thought of the half-step Golden Cores of the Ghost God Temple he had slain. Since they were able to execute such tactics, they might have an appropriate solution, perhaps a technique or a pill. But soon, Qi Tian dismissed the idea of examining the spoils of war. He had just fallen for the Ghost God Temple’s trap and who knew if they had other tricks up their sleeves. If there was another attack, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it. Moreover, it was a critical ti to leave the secret realm. Any mishap was not acceptable. If his soul was damaged again, even a stranger could tell sothing was wrong with him, and by then, no matter how he tried to hide, it would be too evident.
Then, Qi Tian thought about the open market at the entrance of the camp. He might find sothing he needed there. When he first arrived at the camp, everyone was poor and thus reluctant to sell their valuable items, fearful of not getting a good price. But that was not the case anymore. Everyone’s purses had inflated with lots of spirit stones from their mining efforts. Now was the perfect ti to sell at a worthy price. Once they left the secret realm, they had to hand over a significant portion of their gains to the Wanjie Comrce. Why would they wait and hand over their surplus spirit stones for free to Wanjie Comrce?
Once the idea struck, Qi Tian tried to suppress his splitting headache, left his tent, and walked slowly towards the entrance. Of course, his sluggish pace was comparable to an average person’s slow walk, not like soone who is ill and takes small steps forward. If he walked like the latter, it would draw too much attention.
What Qi Tian didn’t know was, the mont he left his tent, a few individuals left the area where the cultivators were gathered, which was arranged by Wanjie Comrce. Among them were two key people from Wanjie Comrce, Wan Xiaolan and Lin Youbi, responsible for the mining mission. The other two figures, one with a black face and the other with a white face, like the black and white impermanence, were Jiang Fan and Lu Kui, responsible for the Ghost God Temple’s mining mission.
“Jiang Fan, what exactly are you searching for?” Wan Xiaolan’s countenance darkened. Jiang Fan and Lu Kui had paid a sudden visit that day, but when asked about their purpose, they revealed nothing and rely expressed their intention to look around the campsites of Wanjie Comrce.
Wan Xiaolan and Lin Youbi knew the duo had dishonorable intentions, but they didn’t dare to refuse outright. Jiang Fan and Lu Kui were Golden Core powerhouses, sa as them, who had suppressed their cultivation realm to be here. If they hadn’t suppressed their cultivation level, they would have been more formidable than Wan Xiaolan and Lin Youbi at Wanjie City. The overall strength of the Ghost God Temple was sowhat better than Wanjie Comrce. What’s more, the Ghost God Temple had many unpredictable tactics which were difficult to guard against. Wan Xiaolan and Lin Youbi feared any blunt refusal might harbour resentnt in Jiang Fan and Lu Kui. If the latter plotted against them later, they might not even realize how they ended up dead.
Hence, Wan Xiaolan and Lin Youbi agreed to allow Jiang Fan and Lu Kui to wander around their campsite with the condition that they accompany them. Jiang Fan and Lu Kui readily agreed. Following this, the fourso started touring the campsite where Wanjie Comrce’s cultivators were gathered.
The actions of Jiang Fan and Lu Kui confird the speculations and worries of Wan Xiaolan and Lin Youbi. Jiang Fan and Lu Kui weren’t just idly wandering. Athough they didn’t enter any tents, they covered every nook and cranny of the campsite without sparing any blind spots, and occasionally even examined a compass-like magical tool.
Wan Xiaolan wanted to sneak a glance at the magical tool, but Jiang Fan and Lu Kui always found so excuse to block his view. Having almost completed a circuit around the campsite, yet without the intention of leaving, Jiang Fan and Lu Kui drew Wan Xiaolan’s impatience, prompting him to express his dissatisfaction directly.
Lin Youbi also said, “Sirs, we are all Golden Core powerhouses with a prominent status in Wanjie City. We have already shown our moral and ethical righteousness by allowing you to wander around our campsite. It’s ti you showed so sincerity in return.”
Jiang Fan and Lu Kui glanced at each other. Then, Jiang Fan said, “If I’m not mistaken, all the cultivators gathered in the campsite we just toured are cultivated by your Wanjie Comrce. They are your own people. The people in the remaining campsite are your hired laborers, right?”
