Wan Dao said, “Senior, if you need anything, please do not hesitate to give me instructions.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “We came out of the wheel and saw a caravan … Do caravans often pass by here?”
Wan Dao said, “Yes, yes. This is the only place for caravans to pass through. This is also the reason for the prosperity of this small town, hehe.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “So what’s the bigger local business?” If he wanted information, then the comptoir would be a good place to gather information.
Wan Dao said, “There are no major trading houses here. They are all passing caravans. Because there are two turn points here, and our town is between them, this is a place to rest. The people in the town depend on the caravans to live.”
Tan Da was shocked, “Two round points?”
Lei Xingfeng couldn’t help but shake his head and say, “What a f*cking extravagance! There are actually two wheel points. As expected of the heart of Myriad Lakes Continent.”
Wan Dao explained, “We have very few places here. I heard that there will be seven or eight wheel points in some places. That is where the real population is concentrated.”
Lei Xingfeng couldn’t help but be speechless. It was simply inconceivable. He understood that this was a fixed-point wheel point, that is, each wheel point corresponded to a wheel point. This should be an ancient wheel passage that ordinary people could use. It was different from the edge of the Wilderness. The wheel points and ancient wheel passages in the edge were only available to high-grade Daoists. Ordinary people simply couldn’t use them.
Wan Dao explained, “However, using the Ancient Lun Passageway is very costly. Only comptoirs have such financial resources and capabilities. Even if we have to pay a high price, we can take the convoy of the comptoir. Normally, we would rather walk or go by boat than use the Ancient Lun Passageway.”
Wu Zhen said, “What kind of price do we have to pay to act together with the caravan?”
Wan Dao said, “A person needs about a hundred gold rings. It depends on the specific location. If it is far away, the price will be even higher.”
More than a hundred gold rings. Even Wu Zhen was shocked. The purchasing power of gold rings in this world was extremely high. Ordinary people had almost no gold rings in their hands. Without a certain amount of money, it was difficult to earn gold rings. Ordinary people would often find goldsmiths to make jewelry when they earned a gold ring.
“It’s very expensive,” Wu Zhen said.
Lei Xingfeng didn’t think it was expensive. He had a lot of golden rings. In the past, it was his little sister who kept them. Ever since they parted, he had obtained quite a bit of golden rings, especially from his master. He even obtained quite a bit of wheel rings and wheel seal rings. Even large sects had very few treasures like this. Those were much more precious than gold rings.
Wan Dao invited the three of them to his home. In this small town, he was an overlord-level tyrant. Everything was said and done. Of course, he was nothing for high-level cultivators from outside.
Lei Xingfeng nodded in agreement. After all, the store was too crude and could not travel far today. He still needed to find a place to spend the night. There was someone to entertain him, so he was too lazy to find a hotel. The three of them followed Wan Dao out.
Wan Dao’s home was at the edge of the town. It was very inconspicuous. It was similar to an ordinary resident in the town. However, it was only slightly older. Wan Dao smiled apologetically and said, “It’s a bit crude. Haha, please, please come in!”
The outside of the house was rather dilapidated, but after entering the front hall, the inside was completely different. Although it wasn’t carved beams and painted buildings, it was also exquisite and tidy. The wooden planks on the ground were polished smooth and shiny, and there were all sorts of vases of flowers in the corner. Lei Xingfeng sighed in his heart. Cultivators in this world really enjoyed it. Even if it was very inconspicuous outside, there was a different world inside.
After XinFeng sat down, he smiled and said, “Not a bad place.”
Everyone sat down together. Wan Dao said, “Senior, where are you going? If there’s anything I can do for you, please feel free to give me your instructions.” Since Lei Xingfeng said that he was passing by, he was also curious where the two True Masters were going. He repeated what he had said earlier. In fact, deep down in his heart, he had a sense of crisis. He hoped that the two masters could leave as soon as possible.
Lei Xingfeng waved his hand and said, “There’s nothing we need to help. Let’s go to Wave Origin City. Haha, since the ancient wheel passageway here is very developed, it’s very easy to get there.”
Wan Dao heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. The pressure placed on him by the two Adepts was simply too great. Especially the four-ringed Adept. He was truly frightening.
Lei Xingfeng said, “Do you know anything about Wave Origin City?”
Wan Dao said, “I know a little.”
Bo Yuan City was the largest sect here, occupying the largest island of Bo Yuan Lake. The entire Bo Yuan Lake had a radius of several thousand square kilometers. It was the largest lake here. The small islands in the lake were densely packed with stars. The largest island in the lake was Bo Yuan Island. Later, when a large force occupied the city, Bo Yuan City came into being.
Wan Dao briefly introduced the origin of Wave Origin City. He said, “Wave Origin City is very powerful. I heard that there are many Daoist level experts, and there are more than ten thousand disciples. Among them, there are countless Thousand Lun Masters, Wan Lun Masters and Milun Masters. However, we are already on the periphery of Wave Origin City’s forces. Moreover, this place is remote and sparsely populated. Wave Origin City has little interest in this place. Haha, otherwise …”
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “Otherwise, I wouldn’t have let you occupy this place.”
Wan Dao nodded and said, “Yes, I have some relationship with Wave Origin City, so they acquiesced to our existence. Haha, our luck is pretty good.”
After chatting for a while, Qi Yaoyan brought a dozen people in. He said, “Uncle Grandmaster, the things you bought are all in the front hall. Senior … go and see if you’re satisfied with them.”
Lei Xingfeng nodded and stood up. The few of them came to the front hall. There were about ten futons piled on the ground, and seven or eight baskets full of various kinds of food. The baskets were packed with rice, and there were all kinds of chickens, ducks, fish, and meat in the baskets.
Qi Yaoyan said, “They are all local products and are not worth much. Haha.”
XinFeng took out a few golden rings and placed them on the table. He smiled and said, “I appreciate it.” Raising his hand, he placed the food on the ground into Lun Zang’s space. With his Four Rings True Body’s strength, Lun Zang’s space was already very large, and he could store a lot of things.
Qi Yaoyan said, “I met Martial Uncle Tian just now. He said that there were many strangers in town. Let’s be careful.”
Wan Dao said, “Don’t be nervous. Is the person from outside … a cultivator? How strong is he?”
Qi Yaoyan said, “He should be a cultivator. Otherwise, Martial Uncle Tian wouldn’t have told me … He told me to tell Grandmaster Uncle that it would be best to send someone to keep an eye on him.”
Wan Dao said, “How many people are there?”
Qi Yaoyan said, “Of the seven people, three were discovered later. They should be a group.”
Wan Dao asked, “Can you find out their strength?”
Qi Yaoyan said, “There are a few Hundred Lun Masters and a few Thousand Lun Masters. However, according to Martial Uncle Tian, he can’t tell the depth of one of them. Furthermore, that person is obviously the leader of that group of people.”
Immediately, Wan Dao’s expression darkened. One had to know that Martial Uncle Tian was a Wan Lun Shi, He couldn’t tell the depth of it. That person was at least a Milun Master. He had the same strength as him. This made him a little nervous. He was afraid that he was a cultivator who came from outside to snatch territory. If he was a cultivator who came to snatch territory, there would inevitably be fights. Whether it was winning or losing, it was not good for him. If he lost, nothing would be left. If he won, he would lose his subordinates.
After a while, Wan Dao said, “Keep an eye on them and instruct them not to clash with them unless absolutely necessary.”
Qi Yaoyan said, “Yes, I know.”
Wan Dao said, “Oh right, are there any special signs on these people?”
Only then did Qi Yaoyan recall something important. He patted his head and said, “Ah, I forgot to say, these people are very strange. They are all wearing masks.”
Lei Xingfeng immediately straightened his waist. He and Tan Da exchanged a glance. A trace of anger appeared in their eyes. They were actually relentlessly chasing after him. These masked people were truly reckless. Lei Xingfeng asked, “What kind of masks are they?”
Qi Yaoyan described the shape of the mask. Lei Xingfeng nodded. He knew that they were masked men. The only thing he wasn’t sure about was whether they were looking for close friends or enemies, Lu Hao.
Qi Yaoyan continued, “Apart from these masked people, there are quite a few strangers. They are not people from our town, nor do they look like people from a caravan. I have never seen them before. About a hundred people are about to enter our town.”
At this time, a Wandao Clan disciple came in and said, “Those strangers have entered the town. All of them are wearing masks. Martial Uncle and Ancestor, they are very tyrannical … and they are coming towards our home …”
Wan Dao’s expression immediately changed. He said, “Could it be … it’s for us? Strange, we shouldn’t have offended such a person …”
Lei Xingfeng didn’t say anything either. He knew that once these people arrived in the town, they would definitely come to look for the local tycoons. Therefore, these people would definitely come to their homes. At that time, they would decide how to act. Since the other party refused to let him go, then he had no reason to let him go.
After exchanging glances with Lei Xingfeng, Tan Da spoke. He understood what Lei Xingfeng meant. As for Wu Zhen, he was at a loss. Of course, with Lei Xingfeng and Tan Da present, he didn’t have to worry about anything. He just had to follow him.
Wan Dao couldn’t sit still anymore. He stood up and charged, saying, “Senior, I’m going out to take a look. Senior, please forgive me. This junior can’t accompany me anymore.” He was extremely anxious to know if those people wearing masks were harmful to them.
XinFeng nodded his head and said, “Yes, you go.”
After Wan Dao left, Tan Da couldn’t help but ask, “Are they looking for Lu Hao or us?”
Lei Xingfeng said, “No matter who you are looking for, I think … as long as you see us, there will definitely be no peace. Prepare to fight.”
Wu Zhen said carefully, “Why don’t we … avoid them?”
Lei Xingfeng shook his head and said, “I can’t escape.”
Wu Zhen was puzzled, “Why can’t we avoid them? Be careful, we should be able to avoid them.”
