The little loli abruptly changed the subject, her pair of peach-blossom eyes fixed on Ye Bufan, her expression both excited and expectant.
She was even a little worked up.
“W-What?!”
Ye Bufan seemed to have misheard her and rubbed his ear.
Flowing Cloud City, the rogue-cultivator holy land within the Zhao Kingdom, was where Ye Bufan had spent a hundred years of his rogue-cultivator life, and he had many old friends and acquaintances there.
It was also there that he had been abducted by Chu Zixue.
“Didn’t you understand? I told you to take a woman to bed! Go at it hard!”
The little loli said loudly.
“Th-this kind of thing, I’m afraid I can’t do.”
Ye Bufan’s eyelid twitched. For even the dignified Old Ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect to be this excited, his cultivation had to be heaven-reaching!
He was supposed to take her to bed?
Even if she was willing, his little frame could not take it!
“Don’t worry, that woman is only at Foundation Establishment great completion right now. Didn’t I give you a Binding Immortal Rope? Tie her up!”
“I’ll give you these two talisman treasures as well, along with a strike containing Core Formation cultivation power and ten Tier-3 talismans.”
The little loli took out a few things and threw them to Ye Bufan.
As if she had imagined Ye Bufan sleeping with that woman, her little face grew so excited that it turned a little red.
In order to find that woman’s reincarnated body, she had searched the Zhao Kingdom for over a hundred years. Once she confirmed her identity, that woman would never be able to fight her again in this life!
Of course.
The reason she did not go personally was naturally because her own aura would easily cause the other party to awaken early.
“…”
Ye Bufan held the talisman treasures and Tier-3 talismans, his breathing quickening.
They were all treasures!
With the Binding Immortal Rope in hand, even if he faced Core Formation, he would still have some ability to protect himself.
“Master seems a little off right now. I’ll talk about it once I get to Flowing Cloud City.”
Ye Bufan looked at the loli in a black dress, who seemed like a little demon; her temperament differed far too much from that of the little girl in a white dress from before.
Seeing Ye Bufan put away the items, the little loli finally nodded in relief.
Apparently in a great mood, she said casually, “If there is anything you do not understand in cultivation, ask away. As your master, I’ll teach you… huh?!”
The little loli was suddenly stunned and abruptly reached out her small hand to grab Ye Bufan’s wrist.
“You cultivated the Heavenly Fiend True demonic art?! Do you not want to live?”
“You even reached Foundation Establishment level six?!”
The little loli’s pair of peach-blossom eyes went wide.
Earlier, she had been focused on having Ye Bufan handle the matter, and on top of that, he had hidden his aura with the Divine Concealment Art and the Beast-Transformation Art, so she had not noticed it for a moment.
Only after a closer inspection just now did she immediately discover the clues.
In her view, with her disciple’s aptitude, even if he had Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, it would take decades to reach Foundation Establishment level six.
She had never expected it.
He had actually reached Foundation Establishment level six in just over two months!
Such a perverse speed was beyond even her reach back in the day.
“You have quite a few secrets.”
The little loli gave Ye Bufan a deep look.
Ye Bufan showed no change in expression and remained very calm.
“Could it be related to Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment?”
The little loli fell into thought.
She had studied the Heavenly Fiend True demonic art; its origins were mysterious, and she had even personally witnessed a disciple’s cultivation process.
Unfortunately, in the end, baleful qi directly entered his body, and he went mad on the spot.
In all history, Ye Bufan was the first to cultivate it successfully!
“Everyone has their own opportunities. I am not so low as to snatch my disciple’s. I do not want to ask about your secrets.”
“The faster you cultivate, the better.”
The little loli looked at Ye Bufan, and an unusual glint flashed in her peach-blossom eyes.
“If you form Core Formation in the future, I can give you the method for Core Formation. As for anything else… I’m poor too. My spirit stones have all been used up, and I have nothing much to give.”
“Go to Flowing Cloud City. It’s very lively there right now, and you might just find what you need.”
The little loli said with a soft laugh.
The Demon-Sealing Ruins were just around the corner.
As a rogue-cultivator holy land and also the Zhao Kingdom’s largest place of transaction, Flowing Cloud City, being outside the jurisdiction of the righteous and demonic paths, drew people from the righteous path’s Five Immortals Sect and the three demonic sects to conduct transactions there.
“Yes.”
Ye Bufan nodded helplessly.
The little loli stood up and vanished from where she stood with a light sway.
After the other party left, Ye Bufan fell into thought, planning the matters concerning Flowing Cloud City.
“Master, you really are Foundation Establishment level six, aren’t you?”
Lu Luo’s pretty face turned pale, as if she had suffered a huge blow.
Three months ago, Master was still in Qi Refining, while she was a lofty Foundation Establishment level three cultivator. Now… he had already reached Foundation Establishment level six, and she was still at the third level.
The gap between people was simply too great.
“This must not be spread outside.”
Ye Bufan waved his hand, and with a flick of his finger, a bottle of pills fell into Lu Luo’s hands. “These are Yuanhe Pills. They should help you break through to Foundation Establishment level four.”
These pills had no side effects and came from Li Kui.
“Thank you, Master. Thank you!”
Lu Luo stared blankly at the dozen-odd pills in the bottle, and in the end she could not help but redden around the eyes and bow deeply.
She had paid far too much to obtain pills that could raise her cultivation.
The bitterness involved was known only to her, and she had never expected that in the end, it would actually be Ye Bufan, whom she had once wanted to harm, who gave them to her.
Moreover, these Yuanhe Pills were expensive; a dozen or so of them were worth at least six thousand spirit stones.
Even a saintess candidate would be reluctant to give them away!
Thinking of this, Lu Luo looked at Ye Bufan with her beautiful eyes, so moved that she almost melted.
Ye Bufan’s eyes remained calm, and he did not take it seriously.
These were ordinary pills, and their effects on him were too weak, not even one-fifth as effective as poison pills.
There was no use keeping them in his hands.
“Prepare yourself. Tomorrow I’ll go to the Task Hall to take a mission, and then I’ll head to Flowing Cloud City.”
Ye Bufan thought to himself.
Naturally, the mission would be one near Flowing Cloud City.
There were many treasures at the Flowing Cloud City auction, including spiritual items that could improve Core Formation quality.
What Ye Bufan wanted were the ones with large side effects.
There was also a secret art that could improve the success rate of talisman drawing.
The key problem was that the medicinal materials for refining pills had run dry and could no longer support the rapid growth of his cultivation.
The Heavenly Demon Sect market was too small.
As more and more disciples returned, the medicinal herbs in the market had all been looted clean.
Flowing Cloud City was densely populated and full of all kinds of people, so he could definitely gather the medicinal herbs there.
As for the sect mission, it carried no risk and could be completed as a side task.
The next morning.
Before Ye Bufan could even go to the Task Hall, Gu He came to his door on his own.
This was already the fourth time.
Gu He had originally thought that this Old Ancestor’s first disciple, who was cowardly to the core, would refuse again.
What he had not expected was that the other party actually agreed!
“Junior Brother, look at this. This is a mission to hunt a Yellow Dragon Snake. Although it is a bit difficult, Junior Brother can invite a few helpers! With Junior Brother’s status, I believe many people would be willing to help.”
“And this task of searching for a Yin Nether Stone in an extreme-yin land…”
Gu He quickly took out the mission booklet and enthusiastically pitched it.
“Is there a mission for Flowing Cloud City?”
“Junior Brother wants to go to Flowing Cloud City? Yes, yes, yes. There’s the mission to kidnap a Foundation Establishment level six disciple from the righteous path’s Shangqing Palace, named Xu Zhengyi. It’s quite difficult.”
“However, this mission is not for a single person; it is done by six or seven people at once, so the safety is greatly increased. Junior Brother really only needs to go through the motions.”
Gu He was stunned, considered it for a moment, and pointed to a mission in the booklet.
The mission was posted.
It came from a Core Formation elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
“This is the one.”
Ye Bufan nodded. Six or seven people kidnapping one person did not seem to be difficult at all.
The main thing was that it was safe.
