Lingxu Realm, Dry Thunder Continent.
Red Qilin Marketplace, where the streets teemed with people like a tidal flood and carriages and horses clattered noisily.
Green Rain Pavilion, rear courtyard.
A tall green-shirted youth sat within a Cyan Stone Pavilion, holding a Golden Glowing Dharma Disk.
"The Five Lights Clan and Yaksha Clan of the Lower Realm were fighting a fierce battle?"
The green-shirted youth asked in surprise.
"That is correct. The flames of war had spread across more than sixty realms. It was most strange; no one knew how they had suddenly come to blows."
A respectful woman's voice rang out.
"Keep an eye on the Yaksha Clan and Five Lights Clan on the Dry Thunder Continent. If you obtain any major intelligence, report it at once."
The green-shirted youth instructed.
"Yes, Elder Xu."
The woman agreed.
A red-faced Red-Robed Elder entered with a well-featured yellow-shirted youth.
"Elder Xu, this senior has come to purchase information."
The Red-Robed Elder gave a brief introduction before withdrawing.
"I am Xu Lin. What information does Fellow Daoist wish to purchase?"
The green-shirted man asked politely.
"I want to know which cultivators Jade Lotus Immortal associated closely with, such as her friends, as well as information about those cultivators."
The yellow-shirted youth came straight to the point.
"Information regarding Jade Lotus Immortal is very expensive now."
Xu Lin said meaningfully.
"Name your price, Daoist Xu."
The yellow-shirted youth asked calmly.
"Fifty Top-Grade Spirit Stones as a deposit. Once the matter is complete, another five hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones."
Xu Lin said.
The yellow-shirted youth took out fifty Top-Grade Spirit Stones and a Red Communication Disk, handing them to Xu Lin. "My surname is Shen. If you obtain any information, Fellow Daoist may contact me."
"No problem. A promise once spoken cannot be taken back."
