"Hehe, a few thousand spirit stones? Ten thousand spirit stones? Did they really think that the Clear Void Holy Land was still around? It's only 30 spirit stones. Don't be ungrateful. I'm already giving you face by giving you spirit stones.”
The embroidered-robed man in front of him revealed a sneer and mockery. His face was filled with impatience and he even began to threaten.
"Then…you…if you have the ability, go ahead and snatch it. I won't sell it for 30 spirit stones no matter what.”
The young woman was still stubborn. Her eyes were full of unyielding. Although she was weak, she was not timid at all.
"You're courting death…"
Upon hearing this, the embroidered-robed man in front of him immediately flew into a rage and was about to make a move.
However, his companion suddenly pulled him back and shook his head." The patrol team is watching. Don't make a move in the South Imperial Sacred City. Back then, the Clear Void Holy Land…"
He did not finish his sentence, as if he was a little afraid.
The embroidered-robed man understood. His expression changed slightly. Then, he cursed in his heart, threw the raw gemstone in his hand, and turned to leave.
After the young woman saw that they had gone far away, she quietly squatted down and picked up the raw stones that were thrown on the ground one by one. Then, she carefully wiped the soil on them clean.
This kind of thing happened every day, and she was used to it.
However…
She sighed imperceptibly.
Ever since 50,000 years ago, the Clear Void Holy Land had suffered a sudden disaster and fell apart.
The elders and disciples who should have left had all left. Now, there were only two or three people left.
At its peak, although the Clear Void Holy Land could not compare to those immortal orthodoxies and supreme sects, its heritage was extremely long.
There were saints who had been passed down from generation to generation, and there were even quite a number of divine artifacts. There were even invincible existences who were half a step into the quasi-supreme realm.
However, after the disaster 50,000 years ago, Holy Lord Qing Xu went crazy on the spot and rushed into the central area of the Divine Ruins Ancient Mine.
The other elders also had various problems one after another. They either went berserk or had a huge change in their temperament. In short, none of them had a good ending.
The entire Clear Void Holy Land seemed to have suffered an ominous curse as it rapidly declined and headed for destruction.
After that, even the ruins of the Holy Land were divided and robbed by other forces, not to mention other resources. Today, only this remote gambling den in Nanque Holy City still existed.
Because there was a ban in the South Imperial Sacred City, cultivators were not allowed to fight, so it was a little more peaceful.
"Master…"
The young woman picked up the raw gemstones scattered at the door and walked into the gambling den. She looked at the crippled old man who was sleeping soundly against the threshold and reeked of alcohol. She sighed softly again.
The gambling den was even more dilapidated and desolate than the outside world. Weeds grew in many places, and they were even half the height of a person.
She was usually busy dealing with all kinds of troubles in the gambling den. She didn't even have time to cultivate, let alone clean up these weeds.
"Junior Brother…"
After putting down the raw gemstone in her hand, the young woman was suddenly stunned. She noticed that her junior brother, who was usually silly and liked to look at the sky, seemed to be a little different.
Although his eyes still looked a little lifeless, they seemed to be a little clear.
She rubbed her eyes and wondered if she had seen wrongly.
"Senior Sister Red Bean…"
Suddenly, the young man's voice sounded. It was calm and clear, very clean.
Xiao Hongdou's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Junior brother…you…you've recovered?”
"Yes, I've recovered." The young man nodded. His figure was slender, and his eyes were clear. He was no longer as listless as before.
Although he was dressed plainly, he had an extraordinary temperament.
"Great, great…"
Xiao Hongdou covered her mouth tightly and almost cried tears of joy.
A crippled drunkard master and a junior brother who had been silly since he was young. This was the current situation of the Clear Void Holy Land.
She was an orphan and was picked up by her master when she was young. She had grown up in this gambling den since she was young.
Many things about the Clear Void Holy Land were only told to her by her master when he was awake occasionally.
This junior brother named Xiao Yan was also picked up by his master.
However, he had contracted a strange illness since he was a child. Even the famous divine doctor of Nanque Holy City had come to see him. In the end, he could only shake his head and leave.
" Although I've been a fool all these years, I still have some memories. Thank you for taking care of me all these years, Senior Sister Red Bean…" Xiao Yan said calmly as he looked at the dilapidated gambling den.
In her memory, Xiao Hongdou had indeed been taking care of her all these years. She was both her mother and sister.
" Junior Brother, you…" Xiao Hongdou suddenly felt that this junior brother of hers had become different. There was something about him that even she couldn't describe.
She had only seen that kind of temperament from the disciples of the big sects and the big shots.
Xiao Yan seemed to know what she was thinking and said softly," Senior Sister, don't worry. You can leave anything to me in the future."”
Xiao Hongdou nodded her head in a half-understanding manner. With her knowledge, she really didn't know what her junior brother's current state meant.
Rumble!
Suddenly, a shocking sound rang out in the distant sky.
A huge ancient warship sped over and landed in the depths of Nanque Sacred City.
"That's…the reclusive immortal clan, the Jiang family…"
Xiao Hongdou raised her head and looked over. Her face was filled with shock. She knew what that meant.
In the South Tower Holy City, only a faction at the level of the reclusive immortal clan had the right to disregard the rules of the city and descend directly.
That was a level that a small figure like her would never be able to come into contact with.
"Hidden Immortal Clan…"
Xiao Yan also noticed this scene, and his expression changed slightly.
……
The reclusive immortal clan, the Jiang Family, descended upon the Southern Palace Holy City, causing quite a stir.
Although there were many crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the Nan Que Holy City, and there were many big shots, a behemoth like the reclusive immortal clan was still extremely rare.
It was rare to see a force of this level descend so brazenly without any concealment.
Many cultivators and living beings discussed animatedly. They were all guessing who was inside the ancient warship.
"According to the black-robed old man's memories, the Book of Death should be in this area…"
At this moment, in the depths of Nanque Holy City, in a magnificent palace.
Jiang Minghan looked at the sheepskin map in his hand and tapped his fingers on the table unhurriedly.
The Jiang Clan naturally had properties in the Nan Que Holy City. Medicine shops, stone gambling dens, weapon shops…they had almost everything.
Therefore, Jiang Minghan directly chose to come to the Southern Palace Holy City. After all, it was convenient.
"Hmm?"
" From the looks of it, the Book of Death happens to be located in a Kuangqu, and it's adjacent to the Divine Ruins Ancient Mine. The Divine Ruins Ancient Mine is a forbidden area with a notorious reputation…"
"The faction you belong to is…the Clear Void Holy Land?”
Jiang Minghan raised his eyebrows slightly.
According to the information he had obtained, the Clear Void Holy Land had been destroyed 50,000 years ago. The reason was unknown and it was suspected that it had been contaminated by an unknown.
There were even more rumors that the Clear Void Holy Land had dug out a few baskets of red and black blood mud in that Kuangqu back then. As for what was dug out after that, no one knew.
According to the black-robed old man's memories, the Book of Death was buried there, and the time was actually right.
What was uncertain now was whether the Clear Void Holy Land had dug out the Book of Death 50,000 years ago.
