Jiang Xiaoyue and Xu Ni swam in the water for a long time before surfacing, far from the market of the Three Sisters.
Xu Ni took out the Water Wood Lotus from the Storage Bag; its leaves carried the two toward Lake Sound Square.
Jiang Xiaoyue sat at the back of the lotus leaf, removed her shoes, rolled up her trouser legs, and placed her feet in the lake water.
Sometimes, she just used her heels to touch the water surface, leaving a white wake on the lake.
"You're enjoying yourself," Xu Ni teased, "Just pull someone into the alliance to get 1 Point, and then use that Point to learn Alchemy, another Point, continuously. Congratulations to Daoist Money Jiang, you are hopeful for longevity."
Jiang Xiaoyue didn't join in the joke, she shook her head, "Can't be casual."
"Of course, you can't be casual. What if it's someone like Weng Liang..."
"That's one aspect, there's something more important," Jiang Xiaoyue said, "Ni'er, have you thought about the future?"
"Business, of course."
"That was before, what about now?"
Xu Ni remained silent.
Jiang Xiaoyue turned her head and looked at her, "Xian'er reached the Qi Refining Sixth Layer in three months. With the resources of the Three Sisters Market, it will only be faster, destined to reach the Nascent Soul Stage, Divinity Transformation Stage."
"I know that, which is why I said recruiting people must be careful, it mustn't affect the Three Sisters Market," Xu Ni said.
Jiang Xiaoyue supported herself with her hands, looking at her feet in the water.
"Ni'er, do you plan to watch her gradually fade away, or strive to catch up and be sisters for a lifetime?"
Without waiting for Xu Ni to answer, Jiang Xiaoyue continued, "I want to keep chasing until I can't chase anymore."
Xu Ni thought for a moment and nodded too.
"So don't always think about business, broaden your view, I recruit people too, but it must be someone useful to the market," Jiang Xiaoyue added.
"I didn't realize," Xu Ni also took off her shoes and sat down, "You, a country girl selling mud from the fields, are actually smarter than me?"
"The clever ones go to the countryside to farm, the fools stay in the market and get deceived by men—without Xian'er, you would be sold by Weng Liang sooner or later."
"Don't mention him, I no longer trust men."
Jiang Xiaoyue shifted slightly, moving a bit away from her.
"What's up?!" Xu Ni glared, incredulous, "Do you even look at what you look like! If I have any impure thoughts, it would be about Xian'er!"
"Judging by appearances, how are you different from Weng Liang?"
"Not mentioning him anymore, anyway, I'm not interested in men anymore, I'll focus on making money and cultivation..."
The two chatted, taking turns steering the Water King Lotus, and after half a day, they vaguely saw someone in the distance spreading their arms, embracing a part of the lake water.
Lake Sound Square was upon them.
Upon landing ashore and having just put away their Magic Artifacts, the law enforcement disciples stationed at Lake Sound Square by the Green Moon Sect came over.
The two's hearts tightened, had the matter of killing Weng Liang been exposed?
Killing and robbing in the realm isn't a crime, as long as the Green Moon Sect doesn't press it, generally, it won't be pursued, and even if known, it's dismissed with a laugh.
But at the establishment of the market, to better control the Loose Cultivators, the Green Moon Sect granted themselves law enforcement rights; if they truly wanted to make trouble for someone, it was completely legal and compliant.
The law enforcement team came before them, taking out a piece of Imaging Stone.
"Have you seen this person?"
The two looked fearfully.
After one look, they couldn't help but glance again.
On the Imaging Stone, a man sat on a stone chair, smiling, with a refined and tall figure, his gaze lively as if in conversation, carrying an aura of scorn, with a captivating presence.
"Have you seen him?" the law enforcement disciple barked.
They snapped out of their daze, quickly shaking their heads.
"If you see the person in the image, report immediately, the Seven Sect will generously reward you, guaranteeing you build a Supreme Dao Foundation and achieve Golden Core, this is under a Magic Contract, understand?"
"Understood, understood!" they nodded repeatedly.
A Magic Contract, a level higher than a Spiritual Contract, reportedly binding even Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.
Every year during mid-autumn, during the Moon Lake competition, when the Seven Sect divides resources with the Water Clan, they sign a Magic Contract.
After the law enforcement disciple left, Xu Ni grabbed Jiang Xiaoyue's arm, "Did you see him? So handsome! If Weng Liang were this handsome, I'd gladly be deceived by him, even killed by him!"
"...Weren't you disappointed in men?"
"Is that a man? That's a Heavenly God! Ah, he's simply my lord, I'll never forget him, I must check if there's an Imaging Stone for sale later in the market!"
Jiang Xiaoyue didn't say anything to her, because she also felt this person was extraordinary.
Thinking of that handsome and slightly smiling face, her heart raced as if it wanted to jump onto him.
"I wonder why he's wanted." She mused.
Xu Ni teased, "Are you interested too?"
"I'm just curious about why he's wanted," Jiang Xiaoyue said blandly, "Let's go, it's getting late, let's hurry."
Leaving the dock and entering Lake Sound Square, they were again questioned by another group of law enforcement disciples at the market entrance.
As for who this person was, these law enforcement disciples had no clue.
They only said that the person in the image wouldn't use a Disguise, and it must be this appearance, report immediately if seen.
The two entered the market and sold the dead Scale Armor Carp from the Storage Bag.
Fortunately, the Scale Armor Carp was mainly sold for its materials, not its meat quality, so alive or dead didn't matter, as long as the scale armor was intact.
These fish were all killed by the Thunder Sound Talisman, so they died completely intact, not affecting the price.
A Spirit Crystal per pound, 1 cubic meter is 4,000 pounds, 4,000 Spirit Crystals, 400 Spirit Stones.
Huge profit!
Their eyes were red with excitement.
And this wasn't just a one-time deal!
"There are still many more of those dead fish that I haven't picked up yet!" Xu Ni exclaimed excitedly.
"Shh!!!" Jiang Xiaoyue placed a finger in front of her lips.
They looked around, everyone was discussing the fugitive, with countless female cultivators at Moon Lake coveting this man.
