ious and recklessly barged into the inn.Even so, he knew that the strict defenses and air of secrecy surrounding this tavern were a facade. It was a den of iniquity, a place where certain unscrupulous...Gao Song, who was almost dragged away from Jishixuan by Jiang Yun, didn't fully come back to his senses until he stood on the street.

Looking at Jiang Yun's back, his face was filled with envy as he said, "Senior, where are we going now"

These people, wanting to earn a piece of Emperor Origin Stone isn't easy. But since I met Jiang Yun, in just a few days, I've already seen him personally earn seven million Emperor Origin Stones!

Seven million!

How many cultivators could earn this much Emperor Origin Stone in their entire lives!

Comparing people to each other is truly a pointless endeavor.

Ginger Cloud's walking speed was not fast, his divine sense always covering the area behind him, and he saw the many cultivators pouring out from the Jishi Pavilion.

Although he didn't have a good impression of the old man from Jishixuan, he had to admit that what the other said was right.

Having obtained a two-million tael imperial artifact in front of so many cultivators, this news wouldn't take long to spread throughout the entire Sijinzhen City. Naturally, it would also attract envy from some people.

If only a few people had ill intentions towards him, then Jiang Yun wouldn't take it to heart.

But now, within the Four Towns City, because of the upcoming Treasure Appraisal Grand Assembly, more and more cultivators are gathering.

If most people cared too much about themselves, they would have a lot of trouble!

Even if one were not afraid of these cultivators, they would still need to purchase a large amount of blood-seal stones and cut them to obtain things and earn imperial source stones.

If there were a powerful person constantly watching over you, it would make your actions very inconvenient.

Ginger Yun thought for a moment, then transmitted her voice to Gao Song: "Gao Song, the inn... we'd best not go back. Are there any other relatively safe places in these four towns"

An inn is the most unsafe place, and you even have to guard against the innkeeper harming you.

Gao Song, who had already regained his composure, also saw the cultivators charging out of Jishixuan. Naturally, this made him realize that Jiang Yun's current situation was extremely dangerous.

Even Jiang Yun, not to mention myself, will probably become a target for everyone.

"After thinking for a moment, Gao Song smiled wryly and shook his head. "If this year's city lord were a powerful human warrior, then the City Lord's Mansion would be relatively safe, and we could go there to seek refuge."

Since now the strongest are demons, there really aren't any truly safe places in these four towns.

At this point, Koson hesitated for a moment and said: "Senior, why don't you ask some friends or elders to come"

Most people who attend appraisal meetings usually don't come alone; they bring their elders along.

Not to mention the various treasures appearing at the Appraisal Conference, just by attending the conference, each person would have at least millions of Imperial Source Stones on them.

In this situation, everyone is in danger of being robbed, so regardless of their status or position, unless they are truly top-tier powerhouses, they will definitely bring several strong cultivators from their sects or clans for protection.

In Gao Song's view, Jiang Yun must also be a person from a wealthy and influential family, perfectly capable of doing the same.

Ginger Cloud smiled but said nothing.

Their elders are quite formidable, some even being renowned figures within this chaotic realm.

>The key is that you can't find them.

Just then, a woman's voice suddenly reached Jiang Yun's ear through a transmission: "East... or rather, Master Gu Yun, I wonder if you would be willing to grace my Misty Spirit Clan territory with your presence"

"My lord, you can rest assured. I have no ill intentions. I only wish to repay your kindness in saving my life in the Imperial Cave."

At the same time that she heard the sound, Jiang Yun's divine sense had already seen a beautiful woman behind her. She seemed to have sensed Jiang Yun's divine sense and smiled faintly before gently nodding her head.

Gu Qianxi!

For Gu Qianxi to have actually recognized him, Jiang Yun was still a little surprised.

As for her invitation, Jiang Yun naturally couldn't agree blindly.

Just now, Gu Qianxi was also at Jishixuan and saw that she had obtained the Emperor's Artifact.

At this time, the other party said they wanted to repay their life-saving grace. Jiang Yun dared not easily believe it.

Gu Qianxi obviously knew Jiang Yun's thoughts, and her voice rang out again: "Young Master must have some doubts about me, and I won't force it."

In short, I will be staying at Zhukengyuan for the time being. You can come anytime, Master.

After finishing, Gu Qianxi nodded towards Jiang Yun and, with two subordinates in tow, turned and left.

Seeing Gu Qianxi's departure, Jiang Yun transmitted his voice to Gao Song: "Gao Song, the Spirit Race, especially that Gu Qianxi, do you understand"

"After a slight pause, Gao Song replied: 'Actually, among the entire chaotic world, the spirit clan is considered the most friendly.'"

The Lingzu, because of their different life forms, have simpler personalities and thoughts compared to us humans.

"Ahem!"

Gashon remembered that both he and Jiangyun were humans, so he quickly changed the subject: "Gu Qianxi is the proud daughter of the Mist Spirit Clan. Although her strength isn't the strongest among the spirits, her reputation is quite good."

After listening to Gao Song's introduction, Jiang Yun nodded thoughtfully.

Actually, he also has a good impression of the Spirit Race and knows that they are simple in nature.

Otherwise, the entire ancient Spirit Domain wouldn't have fallen to its current state.

If things truly come to a desperate situation, then I suppose it wouldn't hurt to consider Gu Qianxi.

"Now, there's no need to rush. I want to see who is interested in me."

Next, Jiang Yun deliberately wandered aimlessly with Gao Song in the four towns of the city.

After exploring almost the entire city area, Jiang Yun also discovered that there were over ten cultivators following him!

Jiang Yun pondered for a moment, "Just an imperial artifact has attracted so much attention. If I were to really make a significant discovery at the Appraisal Grand Gathering, I'm afraid it would be extremely difficult for me to leave the Four Towns City."

"In that case, I do need to find someone to work with!"

"At the very least, I need to make sure they can guarantee my safe exit from the Four Towns!"

"Looks like I'll have to try my luck with Gu Qianxi!"

Since the decision was made, Ginger Cloud naturally didn't hesitate any longer and immediately took Gao Song toward Zhújìng Garden.

Zhurong Garden is not a shop, but a manor of a medium size, which also serves as the residence of the Wuling clan in Sijincheng.

When Jiang Yun and the other arrived at the entrance of Zhújìng Garden, before they could even speak, a young woman came out to greet them, leading them into Zhújìng Garden and to a grove of bamboo trees.

Beyond the bamboo grove, stood two people. One was naturally Gu Qianxi, and the other was a stone appraiser.

Upon seeing Jiang Yun, Gu Qianxi greeted him with a beaming smile: "Master Gu, your presence graces my humble Bamboo Path Garden, making it blossom like never before!"

Jiang Yun cupped his hands in a salute and said, "I apologize for disturbing Miss Gu!"

Gu Qianxi smiled and said, "You're overdoing it. This is my uncle Gu Linxu, he's also a gemologist!"

Looking at Gu Linxu, Jiang Yun for a moment was lost in thought. Her eyes were fixed on him, blinking not once.

Gu Qianxi blinked, puzzled and said: "Ancient Gongzi, did you meet my uncle before"

Ginger Cloud came back to her senses and shook her head. "I haven't seen him, but Uncle Ling, you remind me of someone I used to know!"

Because Gu Linxu's appearance is elegant and he smiles often, people immediately feel a sense of familiarity with him.

Such a feeling made Jiang Yun think of his eldest senior brother!

Also because of this sense of kinship, Ginger Cloud suddenly felt that her decision to come to this Bamboo Path Garden was right, and she was willing to believe the two Spirit Clan cultivators in front of her.

As for Ginger Cloud's words, Gu Qianxi and her nephew naturally didn't think much of it, taking the two into the bamboo forest.

As soon as he stepped into the bamboo forest, Jiang Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, a flash of surprise passing through them.

Because, in this bamboo forest, the faint sense of terror that I felt outside the four towns had completely disappeared!

Gu Qianxi and Gu Linxu, the uncle and nephew, did not notice Jiang Yun's abnormality, but the expressions of both changed slightly.

Because at the same time a voice sounded in their ears: "This person has the aura of my spirit clan, very faint!"to torture Jiang Yun, he must make Jiang Yun unable to survive, or die.Finally, seeing the evil Ginger Cloud's figure right ahead, a delighted smile replaced his ferocious expression. "Die!" he shoute...
