The next day!
In the morning.
Accompanied by the Jiang siblings, Cheng Buzheng headed with the two of them toward the restricted area within this Immortal City.

True Lord Mingxiang, seated upon the throne above, smiled faintly. Her pressure receded like the ebbing tide, and her vermilion lips parted.

"I heard from my disciple that you require a Golden Crow Crystal to refine a Life-Bound Magic Treasure?"
Hearing this.
Cheng Buzheng's expression turned solemn. He nodded gravely and said:
"Replying to Senior, that is indeed the case!"
"I hope True Lord will part with it!"

Moreover, this was the first time he had received definite information: the Golden Crow Crystal was in True Lord Mingxiang's possession. That made him even less willing to let the matter end here!
