Blood Demon Flower

"Haha, thank you, Senior." Yue Qianchou smiled sincerely, but after glancing at Wen Lanfeng and then at Lou Yanqing, he shook his head slightly, revealing a look of deep regret, and muttered, "What a pity, what a pity..."

No one knew what he was regretting, but each listener understood his meaning. Wen Lanfeng was deeply moved and admired Bi Changchun immensely. He was amazed that Bi Changchun could find such an outstanding disciple. Why didn't his Wen family have such a remarkable scion? Otherwise, he would definitely train him properly.

Lou Yanqing behind the green veil, bit her lip slightly. Logically, she shouldn't be too concerned with this junior, but for some inexplicable reason, she felt a burning hatred that made her teeth itch...

"Stop playing tricks here." Nong Zhu said sarcastically to Yue Qianchou, then turned to Wen Lanfeng and said, "Wen Lanfeng, I'm a little worried about the two girls I brought staying with Yin Baikang. I'd better bring them here with you!"

"Alright," Wen Lanfeng nodded. Yue Qianchou was slightly taken aback and asked suspiciously, "You brought two maids with you? Who are they?"

Nong Zhu rolled her eyes and snorted, "Who cares who they are? They're not as important as your Spring Sleep Tower." Then she teleported away.

Yue Qianchou was speechless. It seemed Nong Zhu already knew about his relationship with Yan Yu. Thinking of Furong on Shuntian Island and Wu Lixue of the Wu family, he couldn't help but reflect. A moment later, he sighed sadly, realizing that he couldn't do what he had done before...

Lou Yanqing knew his background and was observing him from behind the veil. Wen Lanfeng, however, didn't understand Nong Zhu's words and asked in surprise, "Yue Qianchou, what is your relationship with Spring Sleep Tower?"

Yue Qianchou snapped out of his daze and said with a bitter smile, "We had an affair that shouldn't have happened. It's all my fault." He brushed it off casually, and Wen Lanfeng, seeing that he was unwilling to talk about it, didn't press him further...

After news of Yue Qianchou's arrival Treasure Gathering Basin, various forces began to stir. For the Spirit Transformation stage lords of the various kingdoms, Yue Qianchou's current cultivation level was not a threat; what truly captivated them was the treasure left behind by the Myriad Sword Demon Lord. Thus, they all dispatched people to secretly keep an eye on him. This kid had been hiding for so long; now that he had appeared, they couldn't let him go. Although he had Wen Lanfeng backing him up, Wen Lanfeng couldn't guard him forever. Once he left the Treasure Gathering Basin, he would be alone. At that time, personally taking action and capturing Yue Qianchou would be a piece of cake, and no one would know. As long as Wen Lanfeng didn't know who had captured Yue Qianchou, then even if he wanted to back him up, there was nothing he could do...

Suddenly, the number of people secretly watching around the Wen Family Shop increased...

Yin Baikang, atop God of Wealth Peak, had lost interest in the so-called treasure of the Myriad Sword Demon Lord after believing Niu Youde's words. However, upon hearing that Tian Ye and his companions had followed Yue Qianchou, he sensed something was amiss, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Therefore, he also ordered his men to closely monitor Yue Qianchou ...

Inside the Di Rong Kingdom's shop, Bing Chengzi's expression darkened after hearing Man Hu's account of Hu Yuntian leading the two to the Spring Sleep Tower. Undoubtedly, even with his solemn oath, he had still aroused suspicion. Since Hu Changshou was already suspicious, the others were likely no better off; it was just that most lacked Hu Changshou's power and dared not openly test him.

Being stabbed in the back by one's own ally is incredibly disheartening. However, Bing Chengzi calmed himself down slightly and put the matter aside for the time being. Such incidents are commonplace in the Cultivation World; they're nothing new. Just like recently, he and Hu Changshou had stabbed Yin Baikang in the back, even though he was also an ally. But when it came to interests, they didn't hesitate to act. The most crucial thing is to have the ability to deter others from making rash moves.

"Once the Treasure Gathering Basin Convention is over, you must immediately return to the Ice Palace with me. This is not a place to linger." For the first time Bing Chengzi's words to Yan Zhuixing carried an unquestionable tone.

Yan Zhuixing paused for a moment and said, "Master, my cultivation has stagnated, becoming a bottleneck in my cultivation of Devil Cultivation Method. The only way to break through quickly is to use the Blood Demon Flower to set up the Seven Star Blood Array to absorb the power of the stars. Everyone says that the Treasure Gathering Basin Convention full of treasures, so why haven't we seen anyone selling the Seven Star Blood Orchid yet?" Bing Chengzi and Man Hu could hear the unwillingness in his words.

"Sigh! These things are rare, but not always available." Bing Chengzi sighed slightly and said, "It turns out that the true secrets of the Demon Codex have always been sealed by taboos. Only those who cultivate the Demon Codex can discover and break through them, otherwise the Demon Codex will self-destruct. I didn't even know this. If I had known earlier that the Seven Star Blood Orchid was the Blood Demon Flower, I would have started collecting them long ago, and I wouldn't be in such a passive situation due to this last-minute decision. At least seven Blood Orchids are needed to set up the array. It's a bit difficult to collect them all at once!"

Man Hu bowed and said, "This is not your fault, Master. It must be that the Demon Devil Lord who wrote the Demon Codex did not want such a treasure to fall into the hands of his enemies, so he added a taboo protection." Then he said to Yan Zhuixing, "Junior Brother, we can't rush this. Although the Seven Star Blood Orchid is rare, it is not extinct. It will appear eventually. Let's wait patiently."

Yan Zhuixing nodded slightly, but pondered thoughtfully and said, "Perhaps there are some in the Huaxia Cultivation World, and quite a few at that."

"Oh!" Bing Chengzi's eyes lit up. "Are you sure?"

"There are Four Great Families in the Huaxia Cultivation World. Among them, the Wu family runs the largest auction house in China. I attended one and saw someone auctioning Blood Orchids with my own eyes." Yan Zhuixing's eyes narrowed suddenly. "Later, I heard that the Wu family auctioned Seven Star Blood Orchid several times in a row. This is a bit strange. Why is it that only the Wu family has auctioned Blood Orchids one after another?"

"Do you suspect that the Wu family has the Blood Orchid?" Bing Chengzi asked.

"That's not necessarily true." Yan Zhuixing shook his head, then said with a firm gaze, "But one thing I'm sure of is that the Wu family definitely knows who the seller and buyer are in the auction. It's a pity that it's not convenient to go deep into the heart of China to take action against the Wu family right now, otherwise we would definitely be able to find out something."

"Good, with a goal, there's nothing to worry about." Bing Chengzi's eyes gleamed as he said, "The opening of the Eastern Pole Sacred Land is not far off. Once Bi Changchun leaves, I won't care about anything else. I will personally go to that Wu family and find Xue Lan so that your Devil Cultivation Method can break through as soon as possible."

"Master..." Man Hu hesitated. A group of Spirit Transformation stage experts had been forced by Bi Changchun to swear a poisonous oath that they could not easily go to the Huaxia Cultivation World. However, considering that their master had already broken the taboo to save Yan Zhuixing last time, there was no point in saying anything more.

Just then, a disciple ran up and reported that Yue Qianchou had arrived at the Treasure Gathering Basin. Upon hearing the news, both Bing Chengzi and Man Hu's faces darkened; they had always held a grudge against Yue Qianchou for the death of their Second Brother.

"Yue Qianchou, you've finally shown up. It's been a long time since we last met in China... "Yan Zhuixing sneered. "The cultivation of the Demon Codex is still far from being perfected, but dealing with Yue Qianchou shouldn't be a problem."

In the backyard of Spring Sleep Tower, Hundred Charm Demoness stood by the small lotus pond, her body draped in red gauze, exuding a captivating allure. After hearing Niu Youde's words, she no longer went out to sing for money. She only hoped that Niu Youde's words were true and quietly awaited Yue Qianchou's arrival.

"Sister Ye!" Yan Yu called out happily as soon as she entered the courtyard, and quickly walked to Hundred Charm Demoness's side, saying, "Good news, do you want to hear it?"

A hint of doubt lingered between Hundred Charm Demoness's brows, but after a moment's thought, her expression sharpened as if she had realized something. What good news could there be for her at this moment? She asked excitedly, "You mean... you mean... he's here?"

Yan Yu hummed in agreement and smiled, "When I first heard this news, I was worried that you would be disappointed, so I sent people out to inquire and confirm. Not long ago, the people I sent out saw Yue Qianchou using the Star Flame Fire Art on the street. It really is the Yue Qianchou you've been waiting for."

"Really? Where is he now?" Hundred Charm Demoness asked impatiently, her face beaming with barely suppressed excitement. As the head of a palace, she had infiltrated this place from the Huaxia Cultivation World, unfamiliar with both people and land, and constantly on guard. She had endured countless hardships, the difficulties of which were beyond description. Now that she had finally managed to find him, how could she not be excited?

Yan Yu chuckled at her reaction. From it, she could tell that her seeking Yue Qianchou wasn't simply about resolving some trouble, as she claimed; there was probably something more to it. To be honest, Yan Yu was now quite curious herself. What kind of person was Yue Qianchou that could make this woman, who always seemed so carefree, so attentive?

"I heard he went into the Wen Family Shop and hasn't come out yet." Yan Yu had just finished speaking when she saw Hundred Charm Demoness about to take off. She quickly grabbed her and shook her head, saying, "Since he's here, why are you in such a hurry? The Treasure Gathering Basin doesn't allow cultivators below the Spirit Transformation stage to fly around freely. Otherwise, they'll be killed without mercy. Don't let your joy turn into sorrow!"

Hundred Charm Demoness paused, realizing the teasing tone in Yan Yu's words. Annoyed, she pinched Yan Yu's ample breasts and said, "Serves you right for laughing at me." However, she abandoned her plan to fly away and quickly left the lotus pond. Yan Yu caught up with her and grabbed her arm, saying, "I want to see what kind of man Yue Qianchou is, that he can make my sister so infatuated."

"Still talking!" Hundred Charm Demoness shouted, while the other giggled, and the two women left chattering away... Women who share the same fate are always more likely to become friends!

Two stunningly beautiful women, each more alluring than the last, appeared on the street at the same time, immediately attracting everyone's attention, with sounds of people swallowing hard audible. Ignoring them, the two women headed straight for the Wen Family Shop.

The shopkeeper was taken aback when he saw the two people enter, but immediately greeted them with a cupped hand and a smile, "So it's Master Yan and the courtesan of Spring Sleep Tower! It's an honor to have you in our humble shop! May I ask what you two wish to buy?"

"Innkeeper Wen, you're too kind," Yan Yu said with a smile. They knew each other, as they did business on the same street. She then asked, "I heard Yue Qianchou works at your shop; is that true?"

Innkeeper Wen pondered for a moment, thinking that everyone had seen it, and there was no point in hiding it, so he nodded and said, "That's right, he's here. Are you two here to see him?"
