Chapter 620 - 271: Second Use of New Feature, Selling a Girl, Exposed (Part 3)

People often choose to travel by Flying Ship themselves; if they take their time, they can always arrive in a month, or if they have a fast-flying Spirit Pet, they can arrive in half a month.

For a cultivator.

A flight speed of one month or half a month can save five thousand Spirit Stones.

Unless they’re royal relatives, who would be so extravagant?

Fu Changsheng glanced at the box his elder brother handed him before leaving, and saw that it contained seven thousand five hundred and thirty-two Low-grade Spirit Stones, with both whole and broken pieces. Clearly, his brother and sister-in-law had converted all their property into Spirit Stones for him to use.

Fu Changsheng took out five thousand one hundred and sixty-six Spirit Stones and handed them to the Vice Hall Master:

"Sir, I have urgent business to attend to in North Huai Prefecture."

"Alright, Fu Clan Leader, please follow me."

The Vice Hall Master glanced at it, then stored it in his storage bag, leading Fu Changsheng to the Transmission Hall. Holding the Hall Master Token, he activated a series of Techniques, and with a buzzing sound, the Array activated, revealing two elderly men with greying beards guarding it.

The hall was divided into different small chambers.

Obviously set to transmit to different places.

Fu Changsheng glanced and noticed the words "Jingzhou", his heart stirred, and he said:

"Sir, if I were to teleport to Jingzhou, how many Spirit Stones would it require?"

"Jingzhou, being a long-distance teleportation Array, requires this amount if traveling alone."

The Vice Hall Master extended two fingers.

It actually requires twenty thousand!

Fu Changsheng’s eyelid twitched.

That’s the price of a Foundation Establishment Pill.

No wonder no one goes to Jingzhou; a round trip would cost forty thousand Spirit Stones. In this broken place, South Huai, you would have to scrimp and save significantly to accumulate such Spirit Stones.

Fu Changsheng murmured:

"If only the family could build a Transmission Array in the future."

Given that he had the "Spirit Void Talisman Scripture" in hand, perhaps drawing an Array with talismans wouldn’t be impossible in the future.

However.

For the time being.

Such thoughts were premature.

Arriving at a chamber inscribed "North Huai."

The Vice Hall Master stepped forward and exchanged a few words with the Array Master operating the Array; the Array Master nodded slightly, accepted the Spirit Stones handed over by the Vice Hall Master, and inserted a Technique into a groove.

Buzz!

The Array trembled.

Runes lit up one by one.

The Array Master tossed Fu Changsheng a Teleportation Token:

"Once the transmission starts, recite the command on the back of the token."

Fu Changsheng reached out and caught it.

He saw that it wasn’t complicated and instantly comprehended it.

"Fu Clan Leader, have a safe journey!"

The Vice Hall Master cupped his hands toward Fu Changsheng.

Buzz!

The Transmission Array lit up with brilliant beams of light, piercing through the void; Fu Changsheng felt his vision blur, and in an instant, a powerful force of attraction settled on him, while simultaneously a constricting spatial pressure made breathing difficult.

Fu Changsheng hurriedly recited the incantation of the token.

A misty Spirit Light rose from the token, enveloping him, and the discomfort vanished in an instant.

.....

Tianshan County, North Huai Prefecture.

In a secret chamber beneath a small courtyard of a brothel.

Madam Luoo carefully flattered a man dressed in a pink robe and wearing a veil over his face:

"Senior, rest assured, my adopted daughter’s talent is absolutely unparalleled, and I can swear on my life that she is still pure."

Saying this.

Madam Luoo eagerly took out a Memory Bean Pod from her sleeve.

She inserted a Technique into it.

The image slowly unfurled.

Steam rose; it was the scene of Fu Yongwei bathing.

The veiled man glanced at it, but instead of showing fondness, his eyes were full of jealousy, and his sharp voice sounded:

"Tell me, what do you want?"

"Senior, I dare not ask for much else, I just wish for two Three-Element Pills."

The veiled man flicked his forefinger.

Instantly, a pill bottle floated toward Madam Luoo.

Madam Luoo hurriedly reached out to catch it, impatiently opened it to see, and indeed it was Three-Element Pills, immediately grinning ear-to-ear with joy. With these pills, plus the Spirit Stones she had previously earned from auctioning the Foundation Establishment Pill using Yongwei, that wretched girl, she had finally awaited this day of Foundation Establishment.

After Foundation Establishment.

She would no longer have to live like a rat in the sewer, hiding and scuttling around.

However.

Upon noticing only one Three-Element Pill inside.

Madam Luoo froze:

"Senior, one is still missing."

"Bring the person here in three days, and I’ll give you the other Three-Element Pill after checking the goods. Are you afraid I won’t give it to you?"

"I dare not, I dare not."

Madam Luoo nodded and bowed, about to turn and leave.

The veiled man coldly said:

"Remember, if you dare not deliver, deceive me, Yun, no matter where you flee, I will hunt you down, turn your bones to dust. Got it?"

"Yes, Senior."

Madam Luoo’s throat moved, and she left the small courtyard trembling in fear.

She transformed her appearance and disguise several times on the way.

Until she reached an underground part of a Desolate Mountain.

An underground secret Cave Mansion had been constructed.

She activated the Array and entered.

To see Fu Yongwei casting Spirit Rain in the Spirit Medicine Garden of the Cave Mansion, seeing Madam Luoo return, Fu Yongwei collected her Technique and hurried to greet:

"Madam."

Fu Yongwei, having failed her previous assassination task, felt guilty, and had been striving doubly hard to please Madam Luoo.

Madam Luoo, however, showed no such kindness.

Coldly, she said:

"I assigned you a new task in the last few days; this time, if you mess up again like before....."

"Madam, rest assured, Yongwei will not repeat the previous mistake and will certainly complete the task perfectly."

Fu Yongwei displayed a hint of a relieved smile.

Since Madam had assigned her a task, it indicated that Madam had chosen to forgive her.
