Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Spiritual Sense Stirred
Seeing this, Ji Haoyuan didn’t stand on ceremony and reached out to take the token, casually rewarding the person with a Spirit Stone.
Once the person left, Ji Haoyuan called Bai Qingshuang over to have a meal together.
This made Bai Qingshuang a bit tempted.
To be honest, she’s never eaten food of such a caliber before.
Every dish was prepared with the finest Demon Beast meat.
Not only was it delicious, but it was also rich in Spiritual Qi.
Especially for a Qi Refining Stage cultivator like her, it had the effect of boosting cultivation.
Bai Qingshuang only ate a little, but felt the Spiritual Qi within her surging, forcing her to temporarily stop and refine it.
By the time the meal was finished, Bai Qingshuang clearly felt that her Magical Power had increased significantly compared to before.
She couldn’t help but feel a sincere gratitude in her heart.
In all her years as a guide, it’s the first time Bai Qingshuang has met someone like Ji Haoyuan.
Especially since Ji Haoyuan was a Foundation Establishment senior, it made even more of an impression on her.
Upon leaving the Moon Viewing Tower, Ji Haoyuan’s Spiritual Sense suddenly stirred.
This caused his eyes to narrow slightly as he abruptly turned to look upwards.
There.
A figure flashed and disappeared.
This made Ji Haoyuan’s eyes narrow again involuntarily.
However, he didn’t linger further, nor did he intend to investigate, as he quickly left the place with Bai Qingshuang.
At the same time.
In a private room on the third floor of the Moon Viewing Tower.
Han Pengshan stood in the shadows behind a window, watching Ji Haoyuan’s gradually retreating figure with eyes full of venom.
Beside him, two middle-aged men with fierce auras each held a beautiful young female cultivator in their arms.
One of the middle-aged men in black, while teasing the young woman in his arms, looked at Han Pengshan with an amused expression and said:
"What’s wrong, Han? You have a grudge against that person just now?"
Upon hearing his words, the other middle-aged man in blue couldn’t help but look over curiously.
Han Pengshan didn’t immediately answer the man in black, instead standing there and taking deep breaths for a while before leaving the window and glancing at the young women in their arms.
The men in black and blue immediately understood.
Without a word, they pushed the women in their arms away and had them leave.
Once the two female cultivators exited the private room, the men in black and blue both turned to look at Han Pengshan.
The man in black said, "Han, what’s the matter? Can you talk now?"
A trace of hatred flashed through Han Pengshan’s eyes, and then he turned to the two of them, speaking slowly:
"Dear brothers, would you be willing to help me take care of that person just now?"
"Hmm..."
Suddenly hearing this from Han Pengshan, the two straightened up immediately.
Their previously amused expressions turned solemn.
"Han, what’s the situation?
Who is that person?"
They were clearly seasoned Foundation Establishment cultivators.
And their approach was particularly cautious.
Therefore, before doing anything, it was essential to gather information about the other party.
Han Pengshan clearly understood their approach and immediately explained Ji Haoyuan’s situation to the two.
Afterward, he didn’t forget to add:
"Once we deal with him, I won’t take any of his belongings, everything will be left for you.
Moreover, I’ll give up an additional 20% profit on the project I promised you before.
What do you think?"
Han Pengshan was clearly aware.
To get the two of them to help deal with Ji Haoyuan, what he said alone wasn’t enough.
He needed to offer tangible benefits to be effective.
"Han, are you being serious?"
Upon hearing Han Pengshan’s promise, the eyes of the men in black and blue lit up.
They knew that currently they, along with the Han Family, were secretly developing a small mine.
If the Han Family was willing to give up an additional 20% profit, it was undoubtedly a huge temptation.
With this in mind, the men in black and blue glanced at each other.
Then they both laughed heartily.
"Han, why say that? What’s our relationship?
Your matter is our matter.
A mere Foundation Establishment from a declining family, with the combined strength of us three, isn’t it a simple matter to wipe them out?
Don’t worry, we’ve got this covered."
Saying this, the three exchanged a knowing look and couldn’t help but laugh together.
On the other side.
As Ji Haoyuan walked down the street, he suddenly said to Bai Qingshuang beside him:
"Okay, Qingshuang, let’s leave it here for now.
It’s about time for me to leave."
"Hmm...?"
Suddenly hearing this from Ji Haoyuan, Bai Qingshuang was visibly taken aback.
"Senior, are you leaving already?"
For some reason, Bai Qingshuang felt a bit of unexplainable loss.
But she quickly adjusted her mindset and respectfully nodded:
"Okay, Senior, let me see you off."
"No need."
However, Ji Haoyuan waved his hand and declined:
"Go about your own business, I’ll find my way out.
Oh, and take this."
With that, Ji Haoyuan tossed a pouch containing ten Spirit Stones to Bai Qingshuang.
Bai Qingshuang instinctively reached out to catch it.
But when she looked up again, Ji Haoyuan was nowhere to be seen.
She sighed softly in her heart.
However, upon realizing the number of Spirit Stones in the pouch, her spirit involuntarily lifted.
All together, there were over ten Spirit Stones, which was undoubtedly a fortune for a small third-level Qi Refining cultivator like her.
After leaving Bai Qingshuang’s side, Ji Haoyuan headed straight out of Crimson Sunset Immortal City.
It didn’t take long.
Once Ji Haoyuan completely left the Immortal City, he summoned the Crimson Flame Patterned Spear, flying quickly toward the distance.
After flying for about the time it takes to burn an incense stick.
Ji Haoyuan suddenly halted his forward motion.
Then his gaze suddenly turned to a certain spot behind him.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
"Gentlemen, you’ve been following me for so long, don’t you plan to reveal yourselves?"
As he spoke, three figures suddenly appeared from the void behind him.
It was Han Pengshan, the man in black, and the man in blue.
However, all three had slightly surprised looks in their eyes.
Clearly, they hadn’t expected Ji Haoyuan to see through their concealment.
To know, the man in black had specifically used a second-tier Concealment Talisman to hide themselves.
But judging by the outcome, it seemed to have had no effect at all.
