Weighing the Pros and Cons

Inside an inn in Sea Suppressing City.

Jiang Fugui glanced at Cheng Buzheng and said:

"It's been a long time since we've gotten together, so let's take this opportunity to get together!"

"Junior brother, what do you think?"

"And it's certain people who keep insisting on going to the Jade Jade Pavilion!"

In the end, Jiang Fugui looked pained and glanced helplessly at Jiang Siling.

Jiang Siling remained unfazed, calmly sipping her tea, seemingly oblivious to Jiang Fugui's pained expression.

Upon hearing this...

Cheng Buzheng aback; he hadn't expected Jiang Fugui to come here for this matter.

He knew all too well how expensive the Spirit Meal at the Jade Jade Pavilion was; a cultivator without any wealth would probably have to pay the restaurant for their underwear after just one trip inside.

Moreover, the most expensive item is the restaurant's special Spirit Wine, called "Jade Jade Wine." The fact that it can be called its signature wine speaks volumes about its extraordinary quality.

It is said that this Spirit Wine can not only improve one's cultivation level, but also allow one to remain at the bottleneck level as long as one has enough Spirit Wine Spirit Stone to purchase it, without needing to meditate and cultivate day after day or year after year.

Even so.

However, to this day, no descendant of any high-level cultivator has been known to cultivate using this method!

It is said that a single small pot of this Spirit Wine costs more than eight thousand Spirit Stone, which is roughly equivalent to Cheng Buzheng's achievements in guarding Xuanli Island for a year.

Even a descendant of the Nascent Soul Realm True Lord wouldn't be so extravagant as to enjoy this Spirit Wine every day!

Although Cheng Buzheng was also eager to take action upon hearing this news!

Even if he couldn't drink the Spirit Wine, he still wanted to try the Spirit Meal at the restaurant. Although he couldn't afford that many Spirit Stone, he could at least benefit from the wealth of Jiang Fugui!

But he realized it was somewhat inappropriate to go now; the siblings had just reunited, and to go at this time...

Immediately, Cheng Buzheng shook off the shameful thought.

With such a good thing happening, you're still thinking about this and that, hesitating and indecisive!

Then, Cheng Buzheng, with a smile on his face, shamelessly said:

"Then I shall respectfully comply!"

When are you going?

Cheng Buzheng muttered to himself.

It's just about getting a free meal.

We can invite him back when he becomes successful!

"Tomorrow!"

Jiang Fugui said helplessly:

"I'll have a good meal and drinks, then I'll attend the Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly the day after tomorrow!"

The three then started chatting.

Chatting casually!

He also learned about Jiang Siling's general situation over the years from Jiang Fugui, while Cheng Buzheng simply recounted his own situation.

Of course, many shady things are covered up and glossed over.

Two hours later.

After Cheng Buzheng and closing the door, Cheng Buzheng frowned.

He originally planned to use a puppet to participate in the Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly, but since Jiang Fugui's Identity Token had a private room, he didn't need to sit in the main hall.

When the time comes, we'll use a puppet to participate in the Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly, sitting in a private room—that will ensure everything goes smoothly!

Afterwards, they pulled off the switcheroo!

appropriate.

Perfect.

Previously, Cheng Buzheng's concerned inquiry about Jiang Siling's safety was naturally an attempt to subtly find out if her master had come here.

To pinpoint the last loophole in this strategy.

But he didn't expect that the last link would be missed.

The fact that Nascent Soul True Lord has arrived in Sea Suppressing City at this time is undoubtedly because he is here to attend the Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly.

It's impossible for the Nascent Soul Realm True Lord to be so idle as to personally escort his disciple to Sea Suppressing City. Besides, Jiang Siling didn't leave the Immortal City along the way; she could directly take the Teleportation Array to reach Sea Suppressing City.

There's no danger to speak of!

If the puppet continues to be used to participate in the Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly, there is a high chance that it will encounter True Lord Mingxiang. With the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, he will definitely be able to see through the puppet at a glance.

That's without a doubt!

Moreover, Cheng Buzheng guessed that the private room represented by Jiang Fugui's Identity Token was very likely the same private room where True Lord Mingxiang was located.

Logically speaking, it is unlikely that even Nascent Soul Realm True Lord would possess two Identity Token simultaneously.

Cheng Buzheng was inclined towards the latter, so he now had to change his original plan!

Although it didn't go against his original intention, and besides, he had already spent the money on the Teleportation Array, he was really unwilling to not participate in the Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly.

After all, it's too difficult to buy items that help with breakthroughs outside!

Otherwise, it would Cheng Buzheng at least twenty more years to earn enough Honor Points for the Treasure Pagoda, or Contribution Points for the Immortal Alliance, to exchange for treasures that would aid in his breakthrough.

This is taking too long. Perhaps another twenty years of honing his skills would be enough for him to achieve a breakthrough naturally!

Immediately.

Cheng Buzheng murmured to himself;

"As long as I stay quiet and remain invisible in the private room, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Moreover, he also had Teleportation Array Disk at his disposal.

Moreover, with the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator presiding over the private room, no other cultivator would likely be interested in buying a treasure to aid in a breakthrough!

Perhaps you can even get a small discount when buying breakthrough items!

After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Cheng Buzheng made a final decision to participate in the Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly in his true form once Cheng Buzheng that his safety would not be threatened.

After making his decision, Cheng Buzheng was finally no longer hesitant, but he was still a little nervous.

Immediately.

Cheng Buzheng sat cross-legged on the bed, slowly calming his mind.

After a long while.

My mind returned to a state of utter emptiness.

After that, Cheng Buzheng began his daily practice of refining his cultivation level!

The next day.

Cheng Buzheng sat cross-legged on the bed, his five hearts facing the sky.

A ray of sunlight shone through the glass-like window, illuminating a face as smooth as warm jade.

"Thump... thump... thump!"

As the door was knocked on, the shimmering white Light Screen in front of it also began to glow faintly.

The moment the Warning Formation was triggered.

Cheng Buzheng also withdrew from his cultivation state.

Then, he stood up and walked towards the door.

Upon opening the door, I expected to see Jiang Fugui, but it turned out to be Jiang Siling.

At this moment, she stood quietly outside the door like a graceful lotus flower, looking at him with a smile.

Upon seeing this scene!

Cheng Buzheng off guard; although his expression remained calm, he almost lost his composure.

"It seems your State of Mind is still somewhat unstable!"

"Beauty is a knife hanging over your head; be extremely careful!"

Cheng Buzheng silently reminded himself and calmed his mind.

Then, he smiled and said:

"Oh, it's Senior Sister Jiang!"

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, Senior Sister. Where is Martial Brother Jiang?"

Cheng Buzheng asked with some curiosity, "Normally, it should be Jiang Fugui comes here!"

He was a little puzzled by this.

"Him!" Jiang Siling smiled broadly.

"He went to ask my master about cultivation issues very early this morning!"

"Judging by the time, it's almost over. Let's go downstairs and wait for him!"

Upon hearing this...

Cheng Buzheng but sigh at Jiang Fugui's good fortune; he was able to consult Nascent Soul True Lord through his sister's connections.

Although he doesn't need guidance in cultivation, this is fortuitous opportunity that most cultivators would never obtain in their entire lives.

Then, Cheng Buzheng smiled and said:

"Senior Sister Jiang, please!"

As he spoke, he gestured for them to come forward.

The two chatted as they walked downstairs.
