Sword Casting Manor handed over an order and once more sent off the dazed Zhang Huaping.
Upon returning to Pingchang City, several shopkeepers guarding the entrance of the teleportation array saw Zhang Huaping's dazed expression and weren't surprised at all.
Clearly, he had seen something that defied common sense once again.
Even the previously sarcastic mature female shopkeeper kindly handed over a cup of hot milk:
"Sister, drink this to warm your stomach and calm your nerves. You can't have anything happen to you; you are our precious treasure, our bridge to connect with Demon Manor."
Seeing the hot milk, Zhang Huaping looked as if he had seen something terrifying, shaking his head and retreating repeatedly.
With people scared , who would dare go?
The look of disdain and terror, seeing milk as if it were a toilet.
"Are you alright?" The old shopkeeper showed a worried expression.
"I'm alright. This time it's not the usual kind of horror, but... but something indescribable."
Zhang Huaping came to his senses, took out various blind box items, and pulled out a big order worth three hundred thousand magic coins, "This is the harvest of this journey!"
Several families divided up the weapons, took the order, and their eyes lit up.
A big order of three hundred thousand magic coins!
Even for the three great families, this was extremely rare, let alone for these second-line families.
This time, none of the people from the three great families came; previously, they aimed for the lion's share.
Now, it was the turn for the representatives of the four or five second-line families present to take over.
Looking at the order, everyone knew that the Demon Manor wanted to seize the opportunity to buy cheaply.
But how could they not make money?
The order included all sorts of professional equipment, and no one thought it was needed by the manor itself.
For a noble family to master even one legacy is already remarkable!
In their eyes, these assorted pieces of equipment were merely there to stock up, ready to buy low and sell high, or even smuggle and sell them in other cities.
After receiving the invitation, a group of ironworkers stopped their brick-laying and welcomed the offline frenzy directly.
Furiously posting on the forum.
[Blacksmith Team Sells Slots]
[Cafeteria Sells Slots]
A bunch of wealthy people madly shouted prices.
Especially some game streamers and various industry people, buying slots not just to play games for show but also to make money.
Su Yuniang was originally just a second-generation rich kid and a gunfight streamer for fun, but with all sorts of memes going viral, even she was tempted.
Opening her bid at ten thousand straight away.
Ning Zheng just glanced a few times and lost interest.
"What auction house is being held in my forum?"
Ning Zheng was surprised that his forum had such a mode of operation; he previously knew about various auctions in Pingchang City.
But reality was no longer his concern; how much they sold for didn't matter, as long as the blacksmiths were happy and got a taste of success.
His gaze instead fell on the Legendary Eye Squad.
The four of them were now very enthusiastic.
Having got two slots, they were practically buzzing with energy, starting to crazily plot against the ancestor.
After some time exploring and getting close, the Meat Field Sister finally opened up to them.
In fact, she was tired of it.
This was the first time in her life she had met such bothersome disciples, such crazy descendants.
And these four crazy ones were just the stragglers?
The blacksmiths now at the manor must be even more terrifying?
She felt a bit anxious.
At this moment, listening to the questions from these four, she still answered: "Hmm, a method for rapid cultivation of the Five Elements, regardless of the cost?"
"There are many such sinister methods, all of which cut off one's prospects and have no real use."
The red-clothed sister, in fact, was a good person with a cold exterior and a warm heart, often answering questions for hidden vein disciples.
"We want to know." Puffy Eyes' eyes sparkled. Google seaʀᴄh novel•fire.net
The red-clothed sister thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "Forget it, after all, you only have one life. If you're merely curious..."
She took out a secret manual of the Blood Burning Technique and a formula for the Blood Burning Pill.
"This is a kind of obscure cultivation technique belonging to our family, but it requires a cultivator of the Blood Separation Flower to help comb the meridians."
Dizzy and the others were pleasantly surprised.
Indeed, we traditional demon cultivators are good people; none of these ancestors are evil!
They accepted the secret manual and couldn't help but say:
"Ancestor, besides demon techniques, is there a faster method, like limb splicing, to cobble together a Five-Body Realm Great Perfection?"
"I cultivate a left hand, and he cultivates a right hand?"
The red-clothed sister gave them a deep look.
Why are these people so underworldish?
The red-clothed sister sneered, "If you could splice other people's limbs and viscera, who knows how many people would have reached the Five-Body Realm Great Perfection, and the Four Viscera Great Perfection."
"Other people's bodies are not a unified whole; you can use them, but they can never form a perfect cycle!"
If it were useful to install other people's viscera, why would those cultivators replace them with magical artifact type organs?
They would have long murdered to snatch hands, feet, and organs!
Thus, maintaining bodily integrity becomes extremely important.
So, those brutal court tortures, the five-body dismemberment, and the excavation of the four viscera... are truly terrifying.
Because even the offspring of great families can't splice other people's limbs back and continue cultivating after being punished, rendering their paths to cultivation completely ruined.
This truly is torment!
Unless one possesses extremely rare heavenly and earthly treasures to restore the original sources of the limbs.
Dizzy said speechlessly, "So that's how it is, we can't splice, we can only honestly squeeze our potential to cultivate."
The red-clothed sister couldn't be bothered with them, "I've already given you everything."
"Wait, we have important questions to ask." Dizzy hurriedly said.
The red-clothed sister sat on the chair and pressed on her temples.
She truly has a good temper.
If it were the adoptive father ancestor from next door, he'd have already gone off the rails.
"I want to ask about our family's origins."
Blind couldn't help but say, "Forgetting history is betraying the past! We cannot forget everything engraved deep in the marrow and blood of our bloodline!"
This wave belongs to game background exploration.
This batch of demon cultivators suddenly descended, and there was obviously a great secret.
"You actually have some sense of family honor." The red-clothed sister looked at them approvingly, "We come from Continent City."
The core hub of Xinyi Continent — Royal City?
Everyone was taken aback.
They were no longer novices.
That is the core area of Xinyi Continent, an intersection of countless great sects and ancient holy lands.
They didn't expect their background to be so grand?
"The rest isn't for you to know." The red-clothed sister sighed.
"Then can we ask, who ordered the attack on the Jiao Family Stronghold to capture this vein?" they asked.
The red-clothed sister didn't hide:
"It was your Puppet Ancestor, who loves puppets of all the divine beasts in his life. Qilin, Divine Tiger, Divine Turtle, and especially loves dragons..."
"He accidentally heard that there was a headless Jiao dragon here, pieced together at the Five Elements, barely hanging on... So he became interested and wanted us to attack the Jiao Family Stronghold together."
"The Magic Copper vein was what we wanted as well."
"We decided to attack to capture the Jiao dragon as a puppet and the Magic Copper vein to provide resources for the clan."
Everyone connected the clues in their minds.
In the previous stories of Jiao Wuyu and Li Youzhu, the demon cultivators came upon hearing the news.
And Ning Zheng was thinking in his heart.
"That is to say, their court patron came after acquiring the Magic Copper vein here, then began to curry favor."
"It might even be that the three ancestors didn't know, but those current demon men among them acted on their own, seeking self-preservation, and somehow managed to climb up to wealth."
He sorted out his thoughts.
He initially wanted to inquire with the ancestor, but even the ancestor didn't know who the patron was.
"By the way, your Puppet Ancestor is also quite a good person."
The red-clothed sister gossiped:
"He is a generation older than me, he raised me, but unfortunately, he is obsessed with puppets, tinkering with them all day, as if they are his sweetheart... Back then, sigh."
The Legendary Eye Squad heard about the gossip.
It turns out our greasy love confession doesn't work because this sister already has a sweetheart.
Could this be a hidden mission to increase favor, to connect the two elders for a twilight romance?
This should be a ghost marriage.
And Ning Zheng, listening to their gossip, suddenly remembered the Puppet Ancestor.
Only then did he wake up:
"Almost forgot, the Puppet Ancestor is about to be revived before the red sun, and the time is almost up, I need to arrange the ancestor's paper house to move back in."
He just felt like something was supposed to be done before the red sun.
Ning Zheng couldn't be bothered to go up the mountain, and directly used the communication token to notify Jiucai Rong on the mountain to start preparing the third ancestor veneration ceremony.
No matter if people accept the ancestor veneration or not, the appearance work must be done well!
This made Jiucai Rong on the mountain quite happy.
The third ancestor veneration ceremony is finally here?
