Fu Nanhua, seeing that Cai Jinjian was somewhat dispirited, took her for a casual stroll. They walked side-by-side, taking it as a way to relax. He interjected tales of strange and wonderful things from the southern Eastern Treasure Continent. Cai Jinjian still forced a smile, but her mood was indeed much better than when she had left Mud Bottle Lane, her earlier agitation somewhat subdued.

Her impression of this noble young master from Old Dragon City was gradually improving. Old Dragon City, though possessing a deep foundation and producing outstanding talents, was only a step away from the top sects. Logically, it should be far superior to the second-rate, bottom-dwelling Cloud Radiance Mountain. However, Cloud Radiance Mountain, with its orderly inheritance and orthodox origins, possessed an innate sense of superiority towards Old Dragon City, a southern barbarian land. In the past, if they had encountered each other, one could consider it good manners if they didn’t mutter “southern barbarian” behind their backs.

Cai Jinjian said with a bitter smile, “Brother Fu, although cloud root stones are the lifeline of our Cloud Radiance Mountain, since it was agreed upon beforehand, I will not renege. Even if I have to impoverish myself, I will repay Brother Fu.”

Fu Nanhua consoled, “Whether Gu Can’s opportunity is a foregone conclusion is still difficult to say at the moment.”

Cai Jinjian’s face darkened, and she shook her head, “The Intercepting River True Monarch, Liu Zhimao, may have a bad reputation, but his methods are not weak. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have a place in Book Scroll Lake. This opportunity cannot be forced. Once I anger Liu Zhimao, how can I withstand the might of a rogue True Immortal? I fear he may already hold a grudge. Once I leave the small town, without a Saint seated and rules to constrain him, heaven knows what extreme measures Liu Zhimao will take. I expect Brother Fu has seen some clues on the border. The attendants who followed me from the mountain to search for treasures here are weak and completely no match for him.”

Fu Nanhua laughed, “Rest assured. Even for the sake of those ten cloud root stones, my Old Dragon City will escort you safely back to Cloud Radiance Mountain.”

Cai Jinjian turned to him with a radiant smile, her eyes like pools of autumn water, brimming with affection.

Fu Nanhua was quite pleased with himself. He habitually reached for his jade pendant, only to realize that his Old Dragon Rain-Bringing Pendant had already been given to that boy named Song Jixin.

Cai Jinjian breathed a sigh of relief. As she walked, she leaned slightly to the left, allowing her shoulder to gently brush against Fu Nanhua’s.

The trip to Mud Bottle Lane was an unplanned gamble for Cai Jinjian, a spur-of-the-moment decision, but one that was carefully weighed. However, it proved that she had lost the bet. The price was ten priceless cloud root stones, which filled her with anxiety about her future in the town. This also unconsciously created a sense of dependence on Fu Nanhua, or rather, a gambler’s mentality. Ten cloud root stones were a gamble, wouldn’t fifty be the same? If she won, she would earn a fortune; if she lost… Cai Jinjian felt that she would not lose, absolutely not. She was Cai Jinjian, the most talented cultivator of Cloud Radiance Mountain! Her cultivation path had been smooth sailing, her realm advancements like a broken bamboo. Cai Jinjian refused to believe that she would capsize in this stinking ditch.

As Cai Jinjian’s mood improved, Fu Nanhua, feeling that the overall situation was under control, had the leisure to truly appreciate the beauty and figure of the Fairy Cai. Undeniably, she was a woman with natural charm. Once you became a Dao companion with such a woman, spending day and night together, both your cultivation and your bedchamber affairs would improve steadily.

Cai Jinjian had once been praised by a respected senior as “Cloud Root Mountain Wind, Soaring Celestial Figure.” The implied meaning was that she was an extremely rare choice of Dao companion. The Cloud Radiance ancestors, who lived off the mountain and were accustomed to doing business, had spared no expense in cultivating Cai Jinjian over the years. They had undoubtedly considered her as something to be sold at a good price. The perfect match of a celestial family marriage was more cautious and far-sighted than the marriages of secular dynasties and powerful clans.

But Fu Nanhua had little goodwill towards Cloud Radiance Mountain. To place the fate of the sect on the shoulders of one woman was simply not right. This was also why Fu Nanhua did not have a favorable impression of Cloud Radiance Mountain.

Fu Nanhua reminded her, “What if the boy next door to Song Jixin is also a chosen one from another force, and still has that natal porcelain? Then your actions this time will cause trouble, and it will be easy for people to follow the clues and find Cloud Radiance Mountain and you. Furthermore, Song Jixin and his servant, and the Intercepting River True Monarch Liu Zhimao, may all become aware of this matter.”

Cai Jinjian laughed, “Brother Fu may be focused on the clues of the opportunity and hasn’t paid attention to some of the unwritten rules here. Boys born locally in the small town, when they are nine years old, if they are not taken away from the town by the ‘porcelain buyers’ who have been waiting for nearly ten years, it means that their natural endowments are not good and they are no longer valuable. The older they get, the cheaper they become. It is obviously far more cost-effective for those sects and gangs to spend a large sum of ‘adoption money’ to be taken advantage of than to heavily cultivate a few personal disciples.”

Cai Jinjian was filled with loathing as soon as she mentioned the straw sandal boy, “Common mortals should have the awareness of common mortals!”

Fu Nanhua tried to be cautious in his wording, and persuaded, “That’s the principle, but that boy has limited experience. How could he know the nobility of Cloud Radiance Mountain’s Fairy Cai? Even if there was any offense, a lesson would be enough. Why attack twice?”

Fu Nanhua felt that Cai Jinjian’s sudden attack was unusual. There must be something strange about it, and it might be related to the opportunity. So he hoped to elicit some information to see if he could find any clues, lest he became a praying mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind him. He had treated her as an autumn cicada, but perhaps she was the oriole. Old Dragon City had gone through untold hardships, and had offered prices that were far more exaggerated than those of Righteous Sun Mountain and Cloud Radiance Mountain, only to obtain some fragmented secret rumors. Fu Nanhua only then learned that the so-called opportunities in the small town over the past three thousand years, after that magnificent and tragic battle, besides that group of exceptionally talented children from the small town, had indeed only been magic treasures left behind by the previous masters. But when this blessed land was facing complete collapse, it was not so simple.

In the final dynasty, with broken mountains and rivers, divine weapons and heavy treasures must be born to welcome the new dynasty’s new atmosphere.

Cai Jinjian was somewhat unhappy, “Don’t mention him, it makes me sick just thinking about him.”

Immediately afterwards, a rare hint of ferocity flashed in her limpid autumn eyes. However, unwilling to spoil her image as a fairy in Fu Nanhua’s mind, she did not express her thoughts.

If she encountered that lowly boy outside the small town in the future, she would definitely let him die a quick death, instead of just dragging out a sickly body and continuing to survive for a dozen or twenty years.

The tall woman especially hated the boy’s eyes. Deep down, she had an obsession she had never deeply considered.

Those pure and clean eyes, she had never seen them a few times from beginning to end in Cloud Radiance Mountain, which was known for its “immaculate purity.” What qualifications did a poor boy growing up in a slum have to possess this beauty day after day, year after year?

Cai Jinjian tilted her head and rubbed her eyelids. This action made her distant mountain eyebrows even more slender.

Fu Nanhua, who had been looking around at the scenery, casually joked, “In the well lanes of our Old Dragon City, there is a widespread saying that the left eye jumping brings wealth and the right eye jumping brings disaster.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Is your left eye jumping or your right eye jumping?”

Cai Jinjian quickly retracted her hand as if she had been burned and glared at him. Obviously, her right eyelid was jumping right now.

Fu Nanhua, who had brought this on himself, quickly tried to salvage the situation and laughed, “The nonsense of common mortals is not to be taken seriously.”

The corners of Cai Jinjian’s mouth turned up, she turned to the side, gazing at Fu Nanhua’s profile, and said triumphantly, “Fooled you, right?”

Fu Nanhua was stunned. Looking at Cai Jinjian’s coquettish and childish behavior, he was inexplicably moved.

He suddenly hesitated. Did becoming a pair of celestial beauties with her be more conducive to Old Dragon City’s plan to move north? If Cai Jinjian succeeded in obtaining the opportunity here and returned to the mountain gate, her status would inevitably rise. If she operated properly, she might even have a chance to become the mistress of Cloud Radiance Mountain. In the long history of the Cloud Radiance Mountain genealogy, there were also precedents for women to be in charge. In this way, Old Dragon City would be like having a springboard, rightfully infiltrating the heartland of the Eastern Treasure Continent. From then on, the north and south would echo each other, attacking and defending as needed. This would be a kingly enterprise, allowing Old Dragon City to get rid of the embarrassing situation of having strength but only being able to be confined to a corner, suffering from rejection for hundreds of years.

Not far ahead, a few steps away, was the intersection of two lanes.

Fu Nanhua saw the intersection, suddenly awoke, and seemed to understand something, his eyes becoming firm again.

Fu Nanhua, wearing a tall crown, instantly broke out in a fine sweat on his forehead.

Those who disturb my mind must be killed to strengthen my Dao heart!

At this moment, when Fu Nanhua looked at Cai Jinjian again, his eyes, demeanor, and state of mind returned to the previous ease. It was purely like appreciating a picture, beautiful women and beautiful scenery can all nourish the eyes. Now, he could look at her a few more times, after all, she was destined to die in his hands after leaving the small town.

Killing people and setting fires brings golden belts, building roads and laying bridges brings no bones.

Listen, some famous sayings from the bottom of the city are really universally applicable.

Fu Nanhua’s heart suddenly opened up.

Cai Jinjian tilted her body, her voice soft and charming, and asked with a smile, “Nanhua, what are you thinking about, so happy?”

She quietly changed to a more intimate name.

Fu Nanhua shook his head and smiled, just about to speak, when the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a black shadow.

A thin boy, as if he only took one step, crossed from the transverse lane to Cai Jinjian. His left hand quickly picked upwards, while his right fist had already smashed into the abdomen of the Cloud Radiance Mountain Fairy. The momentum was strong, and the sudden force in the space seemed to have a faint whistling sound, forcing the woman to bend down.

Although the boy’s right hand strength had far exceeded that of his peers, the boy was actually left-handed. Therefore, the sharp weapon held by the boy’s left hand completely penetrated Cai Jinjian’s throat, directly piercing through the lower oral cavity.

The boy did not give up. His right fist smashed into the woman’s chest, and his left hand still lifted upwards.

Ensuring that there would be no surprises in this sneak attack.

At that moment, blood spurted from the woman’s originally slender white neck.

Then, the boy exerted force in his waist and ankles, and bumped the tall woman’s chest with his shoulder, sending her violently into the transverse alley.

Fu Nanhua’s feet were rooted to the ground, standing still.

The young master of Old Dragon City was blank.
