Hearing Li Yun's words,
Liu Chengxue was first stunned,
Then,
She was overjoyed!
The senior in front of her was incredibly powerful, and every word he spoke was laden with meaning. What he had said just now was clearly purposeful!
She thought carefully for a moment.
“Senior, are you saying that you know Du Qianshang's whereabouts?”
“Naturally.”
Li Yun nodded.
The fish had bitten the hook!
To his surprise, the first transaction came so quickly, so early!
“Please, Senior, guide me!”
Liu Chengxue said respectfully.
Her feud with Du Qianshang had reached the point of no return.
Today,
If Du Qianshang didn't die,
She would always have to guard against his surprise attacks wherever she went.
Du Qianshang wasn't an ordinary person—he was a core disciple, and his talent wasn't much inferior to hers. Given time, it was uncertain who would achieve greater things.
The principle of “letting the tiger return to the mountain” was something every cultivator understood!
“I never offer guidance without reason.”
Li Yun smiled.
The system's calculations required Heavenly Mechanism Points. Right now, he had zero Heavenly Mechanism Points, so even if he wanted to help, he was powerless.
“The purpose of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower is to calculate the Heavenly Mechanism. Every time I reveal a part of the Heavenly Mechanism, I must endure the Heavenly Dao's backlash. Do you understand the consequences?”
Li Yun paused, then continued with a deeper meaning.
As for the Heavenly Dao backlash—he was just making that up. He had to make it sound grand to justify his price.
“I see!”
Liu Chengxue immediately understood and felt a bit guilty.
The senior had been so considerate of her,
Yet she had planned to get the information for free, without offering anything in return—she realized that was truly inappropriate.
After a moment of thought,
She took a shining sword from her space ring.
She placed it in front of Li Yun and softly asked,
“Senior, I don't have many valuable items, but this top-grade spiritual weapon... I wonder if it would be to your liking?”
Liu Chengxue was nervous inside.
To her, this top-grade spiritual weapon was incredibly valuable,
But how much value would it hold in the senior's eyes? Only the heavens knew.
After all,
Someone of this senior's caliber could easily possess several Saint weapons or even Emperor weapons.
[Ding, a top-grade spiritual weapon discovered. It can be exchanged for 10 Heavenly Mechanism Points!]
Suddenly,
A system prompt sounded.
Li Yun's heart stirred, but his expression remained unchanged. He asked inwardly,
“System, check Du Qianshang's whereabouts.”
[Checking Du Qianshang's whereabouts requires 5 Heavenly Mechanism Points. The host has insufficient points to perform this action.]
“Oh?”
Li Yun raised an eyebrow.
Only five points needed?
The spiritual weapon Liu Chengxue had given was worth 10 Heavenly Mechanism Points, so this meant he would get a 5-point rebate!
This wasn't a loss at all!
Li Yun silently accepted the top-grade spiritual weapon from Liu Chengxue and exchanged it for 10 Heavenly Mechanism Points.
Now, he had 10 Heavenly Mechanism Points.
Li Yun thought to himself,
“System, check Du Qianshang's whereabouts.”
[Name: Du Qianshang]
[Cultivation: Mid-stage Meridian Opening Realm]
[Affiliation: Nine Nether Demon Sect]
[Master: Elder Yang Qiu of Nine Nether Demon Sect]
[Current Location: 500 miles north of Great Wasteland City, in an unnamed valley]
[Current Status: Severely injured, preparing the Five Demons Devouring Heaven Formation (click to view details), aiming to counter Liu Chengxue. Elder Yang Qiu of Nine Nether Demon Sect is on his way and will arrive in approximately two hours.]
[Click to expand more...]
“Well, well...”
Li Yun clicked his tongue.
This wasn't just not a loss—he had actually gained quite a bit.
Not only did he learn Du Qianshang's whereabouts, but he also obtained the Nine Nether Demon Sect's unique formation and the method to break the Five Demons Devouring Heaven Formation.
The Five Demons Devouring Heaven Formation had existed for a long time,
And so had its countermeasure. That didn't require any Heavenly Mechanism calculation—it was just a bonus from the system.
After reviewing the details about Du Qianshang,
Li Yun turned to Liu Chengxue, who was eagerly watching him, and spoke.
“Du Qianshang is currently in a valley 500 miles north of Great Wasteland City. You can go and find him.”
“Thank you, Senior!”
Liu Chengxue was overjoyed and quickly expressed her gratitude.
Although 500 miles wasn't too far,
If she were to search on her own, it would be uncertain how long it would take. What if Du Qianshang was rescued by someone from his sect? That would mean she had failed to catch him and would have gained a powerful enemy, one who followed the Demon Path—there would be no place for her to cry.
The other side had no bottom line and would strike at any time.
After thanking him,
Liu Chengxue turned to leave.
“Wait.”
Li Yun called out.
“Is there anything else, Senior?”
Liu Chengxue turned around, confused.
“Since you're the first guest of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower, I'll give you one more piece of information.”
Li Yun smiled.
He understood the value of returning customers.
Having Liu Chengxue as the first client, the reputation of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower would surely spread!
“Du Qianshang has already set up the Five Demons Devouring Heaven Formation, and you only have two hours. If you don't kill Du Qianshang within two hours...”
“The one who dies in the end will definitely be you!”
Li Yun said.
“Ah?”
Hearing this,
Liu Chengxue was stunned.
Two hours?
Aside from the time it would take to get there, she would also have to break the Five Demons Devouring Heaven Formation?
Was this a joke?
