"I don't want anything like that. You should go to bed now!" Zheng-Fu did not agree and did not reject her. Without waiting for her to say anything, he simply told her to go to rest before walking into his room.
Ah!
When the young woman saw that, she just kept her mouth open. She did not think Zheng-Fu would walk away without giving a clear answer. Before she returned to her consciousness and realized that she had begged him too much. Probably no one would accept such conditions. She then turned and walked back to her room.
Inside Zheng-Fu's room…
Sigh!
"Next time, I need to be more careful. Otherwise, I would have been caught like this," Zheng-Fu muttered to himself as he helplessly let out a long sigh. He did not think he would make such a mistake. He thought that no one would be able to catch his actions. But his thought was too shallow. Even an ordinary young woman could notice it. Therefore, Zheng-Fu thought that he had to be more careful from now on.
"As for that young man's dream, I promised to make it come true, so I have to send a message to Senior Brother regarding this matter."
After pondering for a moment, Zheng-Fu decided that he would not just send people to recruit members here. It would be better if he sent people to set up a cultivation camp within this village. Because when a cultivation camp was here, not only the people in the village would be able to participate, but people in Green Mist Forest City would also have the opportunity to participate in cultivation.
But what Zheng-Fu really wanted was to develop this area by bringing part of his force to set up a branch here. If a strong force set up its branch, the area around here would prosper more. And it would be even more secure. Because his force's reputation was so famous. Zheng-Fu had heard it from the young man and the people of Green Mist Forest City.
"I should leave the village tonight. But before leaving, I should have left a message for that young woman. Of course, including an apology gift for her!" After Zheng-Fu sent a message to Jiang-Long at the Heavenly Command Sect, he left a message for the young woman. This included a gift, which was a dimensional ring containing hundreds of bottles of fifth-level divine medicine and several high-level Heavenly Purple Crystals.
He then soared out of the tavern into the darkness, without anyone knowing when he left. His target this time was an ancient ruin to the north, nearly three hundred li from Resting Village. And it was in the same direction that the reinforcements of Thousand Arms Heavenly Demon Sect were coming to Green Mist Forest City as well.
Whoosh!!!
Three hundred li away from Resting Village to the north...
Thump!
Stop!
"We'll rest here first. If we travel too much in a hurry, it won't do us any good. So we'll rest here. And we'll leave in the morning!"
Yes, sir, Master Elder!
A large group of cultivators clad in black robes all stopped in unison when they heard the words of the person at the forefront of the procession. They were disciples of the Thousand Arms Heavenly Demon Sect going to support the demon elder at Green Mist Forest City.
"Master Elder, why is there no response from Master Elder at Green Mist Forest City? It's been three days since we contacted him," a disciple suddenly asked.
"He must be busy. I have heard that the Black Bamboo Group representing the Chu Clan that we've been manipulating behind the scenes has just been wiped out by a mysterious great skilled master. Right now, they must be busy," the elder replied with a normal expression. Usually, a normal disciple should not have to know this kind of information. But this disciple was one of the important persons in the sect, so the elder had to reluctantly answer the question.
"That's how it is. Then, when we reach Green Mist Forest City, the first thing we should do would be to exterminate those human races, right?" the young demon continued to ask with an excited and battle-hungry expression.
"No, we won't kill those humans. We'll make them our slaves. Since we plan to spy on the Heavenly Command Sect, we still need to use them."
Sigh!
"What a pity. I have been cultivating for so many years. But I haven't had a chance to test my energy. But if it's the sect's command, I'll obey it. Anyway, if I meet someone who interferes with our plan, I can kill him, right?" The young man said with a sad expression at first. Before he smiled at the corner of his mouth in the last sentence
"Of course, you can. But it must only be after we've taken control of Green Mist Forest City. Before that, you could not do anything to make them suspicious!" The Elder could not help but shake his head at this disciple's attitude and words. If this young demon was not an important member of the sect, he would have smashed his skull.
"Yes, sir, Master Elder. I won't spoil the sect's plans!" the young demon promised. But the sparkle in his eyes and his smile did not say that at all.
A group of reinforcements from the Thousand Arms Heavenly Demon Sect dispersed to set up their tents and gather firewood. Before they all went to rest.
Flap!
"Do they come together this much? Huh! Never mind! As long as they don't have a Deity stage Grandmaster with them, I won't be afraid of them. Hmm, time to clean up the rest of the work!"
Whoosh!!!
Boooooom!!!
Argh!
Yaaaaak!
Nooooo!!!
Slash!
Thump!
Zheng-Fu immediately decided to rush into the encampment of the Thousand Arms Heavenly Demon Sect. His first target was the elder who supervised these disciples. With such a huge difference in energy levels, the demon elder was beheaded by Zheng-Fu in just a few breaths. Before the other disciples were next until no one survived.
Slash! Slash! Slash!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Of course, this horrific event was not known to anyone. Because this area is far from the residential area and rarely anyone travels through. So no one knew what was going on here.
The next morning, at the entrance to the ancient ruin...
"This ancient ruin is really huge. Even though it's been broken for a long time. This is so big that it must have been a city before. Judging by the civilization of the building, it should be over two thousand years old. According to the people at Resting Village, this ancient ruin has been explored many times before. There probably won't be anything left. But why don't I feel that way!?"
Last night, after defeating the Thousand Arms Heavenly Demon Sect reinforcements, he slept in their camp. Because that place was not far from this ancient ruin. Before, he woke up early to come here.
Arriving at the ancient ruin area, Zheng-Fu came across building debris along the road. Including ruins of houses, stone pillars, crumbling walls, and many other strangely shaped buildings.
But what Zheng-Fu was interested in was the fountain in the center square of the ancient ruin, which was still in working order. There were only several small cracks on the edges, even though it had been thousands of years. And the statue on it had signs of being broken by some action.
"If it wasn't the Immortal sorcerer or above, no one would know that there are spell characters carved around this fountain. Hmm! Such a complex spell and very difficult to solve. If someone is not careful, they'll miss and be hit back by energy. But for me, it's no big deal!"
What others could not see were the spell characters surrounding the fountain. Because most people were more interested in the treasures in the ruins and surrounding buildings. Although some people might be interested in the fountain, no one had ever discovered these spell characters anyway.
But that was not Zheng-Fu, an Immortal sorcerer. He could easily spot this spell. He even knew its type. According to Zheng-Fu's examination, it was a sealing spell. So, he tried to loosen this spell.
Half a shichen passed...
Groooaaaan!
After spending half a shichen, Zheng-Fu finally managed to loosen this sealing spell. The moment he finished, the fountain suddenly split apart, revealing a secret passage downstairs.
"It's really a secret passage! But where does it lead?" Zheng-Fu thought in many ways about this spell. But mainly, he thought there had to be a secret passage behind this fountain. And it was as true as he thought. But what he did not know was where the end of this secret passage was.
"If you don't try to go down there, how will you know? If you want a tiger cub, you have to go to the tiger's cave!"
Zheng-Fu thought that he should go down and explore. Because, in any case, he had nothing to lose. If he encountered an imprisoned demon monster who was strong at the Deity stage, he was able to escape it. And he could seal the entrance as soon as he escaped. Because he had modified the sealing spell and made it connect with his spirit energy. Whenever he ordered it, it would be sealed immediately. And that would cause that Deity stage demon monster to be imprisoned again and forever.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Plink! Plink! Plink!
Whoosh!!!
The deeper Zheng-Fu descended, the more he could feel the moisture and cold from below. And he also heard the sound of water dripping on the ground all the time. Zheng-Fu thought that this secret passage might be under a river or a lake or adjacent to areas with water. Otherwise, there would not have been water dripping all the time and making it so wet.
Half an hour later...
Thump!
Huh!?
After walking down for half an hour, Zheng-Fu found a giant door in the vast hall. It was a giant door that looked very strong and formidable. Also, there were some works of art carved on it. But what caught Zheng-Fu's attention the most was a huge skeleton sitting in front of this door.
Looking at the size of the skeleton, Zheng-Fu thought that while still alive, it had to be more than three meters tall. Aside from being tall and huge, it was probably a high-stage great skilled master as well. Otherwise, this skeleton would have already decomposed after such a long time.
"What's behind this door? What made this person guard in front of this room?" Zheng-Fu slowly and cautiously approached the giant door. Because he was afraid that there might be some hidden traps. But when he reached the door, nothing happened. Zheng-Fu, therefore, touched the door with his hand.
Groooaaaan!!!
Huh!?
Whoooooooosh!!!
Ah!
