Gang Boss

Chapter 023: Gang Boss

The next day, just as the sky in the far distance began to show a hint of dawn, Yuan Tianzong called out to Bone, saying he needed to leave for a bit and instructed him to wait around the house and not wander off.

Bone nodded repeatedly, his timid and fearful rat-like appearance completely at odds with the ferocious snake skull on his head.

Yuan Tianzong couldn't help but chuckle, knowing that even without his specific instructions, this fellow would hide in the most concealed spot and wouldn't dare to move around carelessly.

The reason it was relatively safe here was entirely due to the fact that he had recently killed many mutated creatures. He had processed their bodies by the pond, and the residual powerful aura was enough to deter most other anomalous beings, making them mistakenly believe that a beast king resided here.

Yuan Tianzong's reason for leaving was to get his hands on a mobile phone from this era.

He had already realized that his source of information was practically non-existent. This feeling of being unable to obtain external information was terrible.

As a cultivator who had "stowed away" from the Dharma-ending era to the present, he naturally didn't have identification from this era. However, Yuan Tianzong was not one to fuss over details and didn't care about it at all. He directly found the cultivation-related criminal elements operating in the city, gave their boss a severe beating, and then demanded that the man hand over two mobile phones.

The gang boss, beaten into a pulp, was on the verge of tears. He clutched his face and wailed, "Big Brother! It's just two phones, you could have just said so! Why did you have to start with violence..."

"Do you have money?" Yuan Tianzong asked calmly.

The gang boss quickly nodded, fawning, "Yes, yes, yes! Big Brother, how much do you need?"

"Three hundred."

The gang boss's face contorted in pain, and then he gritted his teeth, "Big Brother, three million would require a few hours' wait. Have you eaten? Why don't you have something here first, and I'll immediately send someone to get the money."

Yuan Tianzong couldn't help but laugh and waved his hand, "You misunderstood. It's three hundred, not 'ten thousand'."

The gang boss thought he had misheard.

Yuan Tianzong continuously browsed through the information, his face devoid of any emotion.

He had already personally understood the golden lotus's functions.

Comprehension was something innate, and extremely difficult to change.

Many cultivators who had not personally visited the Kunlun Heavenly Pool were filled with regret and remorse upon learning all this.

Yuan Tianzong's mind stirred slightly, and a wisp of void white flame materialized out of thin air, gently flickering in the approaching twilight, exuding an ineffable mystical aura.

His comprehension had also been extraordinarily enhanced, but compared to other cultivators who had obtained the golden lotus, he clearly had an additional, extra gain.

As the sun set, its afterglow bathed Yuan Tianzong. He stared intently at the void white flame in his palm, pondering silently.

Based on his experience in the Dharma-ending era, searching ancient texts and exploring hidden secrets, he believed that ancient Daoist sects and certain long-standing aristocratic families might harbor secret information from the most ancient eras.

And if he wanted to uncover the origin of this wisp of void white flame, he would probably have to start from these places and try his luck.

There was a sect belonging to the Daoist school within Wangwu Mountain.

That night, Yuan Tianzong once again left the wooden cabin and headed towards a certain location within the mountain.
