Luo Beixi has been practicing in seclusion over the years, and his cultivation has also improved a lot. He just came out of seclusion a few days ago, and he saw that he had received a lot of transmissions.

There are all kinds of news in the palace with the identity token, and there are also the prohibitions outside cave abode, where the transmission symbols are being bumped around.

So he read them one by one, and yesterday he left the palace and went to a place in the city where there were regular gatherings of Void Refinement monks, and some friends also met.

There are too many gatherings like this in Xiuxian City, almost at every level. The Spirit Transformation monks are gathering with the Spirit Transformation monks, the Nascent Soul Cultivator are gathering with the Nascent Soul Cultivator monks, etc.

Only equals can talk. High-level monks look down on them, and they look down on low-level monks. Naturally, they all have their own small circles.

And within the same cultivation level, there are also different circles. For example, Luo Beixi will definitely not get together with monks from the same sect who have a bad relationship. If his face is too unfamiliar, others will not let them join easily!

Among the transmission notes Luo Beixi received, there were many communication or invitations from monks of the same level. Yesterday happened to be the day when these people got together again, so he went over to participate.

While everyone was chatting there, Luo Beixi heard a monk named Ding Liumin talk about the excellence of some Pill he had refined.

This person said that it took him several years to refine a bottle of Pill, which also included a kind of Gu insect that is difficult to find as raw material...

Ding Liumin expressed that it was not easy for him to refine such a poisonous elixir. His original intention in saying this was that he wanted to barter with some people, hoping that through more unique things, he could exchange for something he was satisfied with.

Sure enough, Ding Liumin's words attracted the attention of some people, including Luo Beixi, but Luo Beixi was interested in a different direction than others.

After he decided to attend this party, he left the sect directly, but when he walked out of "Holy Devil Palace", he didn't pay attention to the shops on the street.

Luo Beixi Unless you specifically want to buy something, you don't pay too much attention to those shops on weekdays.

Although this place is "Saint Demon City" and the things sold in the city are extraordinary, he is a Void Refinement Realm monk himself. There are really not many things that can get into the eyes of a monk at this level.

What's more, he is also a monk in "Holy Devil Palace" and a core elite disciple. He has priority in purchasing Pill, materials, and techniques that are rare in the outside world.

Therefore, he did not think that he would just happen to encounter something good if he just went out casually. That would be too easy and worthless.

At the same time, Luo Beixi would not have thought that by such a coincidence, someone would open a shop specifically to sell poisonous insects. Not everyone can do this kind of shop.

Luo Beixi At the party, after hearing Ding Liumin talk about the function of Pill, he wanted to know where the other party got the poisonous insect.

In addition to buying it from the two special shops in the city, Ding Liumin might also get it outside. If possible, Luo Beixi really plans to go there and take a look.

So he decisively traded with the other party, and finally got the bottle of Pill at a high price after several rounds of bidding with others.

Later, when he and Ding Liumin were trading alone, they asked about the source of the main material for refining Pill. Ding Liumin was also extremely shrewd and immediately understood the meaning of Luo Beixi's words.

His status in this small circle can only be regarded as average, unlike Luo Beixi's very lofty status. This is the sphere of influence of "Holy Devil Palace", who is the core elite disciple of the clan.

In their daily life, Luo Beixi's words are quite weighty in their small circle. They are exactly the people they want to make friends with. Ding Liumin was able to enter through the introduction of others.

In the past, we were only familiar with Luo Beixi, but Luo Beixi didn't say a few words to him. Today, after the other party purchased Pill, he suddenly asked about it. The purpose couldn't be clearer.

They didn't bother to ask for information in vain, so they were willing to pay a high price to buy Pill. For me, this was undoubtedly a good opportunity to make friends.

If someone else asked such a question, Ding Liumin might not necessarily tell him. Although this voodoo came from a place not far away, it was his own opportunity, so why should he tell the other person?

But in response to Luo Beixi's inquiry, Ding Liumin had almost no hesitation, and immediately sent a message to tell the source of the Gu insects, and also told some things about the "Gu Xingyuan".

After hearing this, Luo Beixi looked slightly startled. He did not expect that this shop named "Gu Xingyuan" was actually opened not far from the mountain gate of "Holy Devil Palace".

When I came here today, I didn't notice such a store, so Luo Beixi made a note of it.

When he went back that day, he stopped to look at it from a distance for a while, but he did not enter the store at that time. He just observed it secretly for a while.

After returning, Luo Beixi sent someone to the palace where the store was managed and brought over the information about the store.

Any shop opened in "Saint Demon City" will have certain records in "Holy Devil Palace", mainly for the purpose of classification management.

As for the situation of the forces behind the store, they will check as much as they can, and will not insist on getting to the bottom of it. This is a common practice in all immortal cities.

Unless it is really suspected that you are from a hostile force, or the store has done something it shouldn't have done, then you will be thoroughly investigated...

Luo Beixi After getting the information, he immediately started reading it and at the same time compared the situation described by Ding Liumin with the information in his hand.

Then, he fell into deep thought. He already doubted whether this "Gu Xingyuan" was targeting him?

This is not because he is suspicious, but a shop like this that specializes in selling Gu insects has always been very rare, not to mention that it is opened at the mountain gate of "Holy Devil Palace".

If someone knows some of his secrets, it is really possible that he will do this. His situation is not the same as others, although there are fewer and fewer people who know about it.

But as long as someone knows your secret, only those people will communicate with others, and some things may not be hidden even if you want to.

After years of seclusion, there was such a special shop not far from the mountain gate. This made Luo Beixi, who had always been wary, react differently from others.

And if Li Yan knew about it, he might be surprised. He had already thought of the special nature of his shop. Would it arouse Luo Beixi's suspicion? But after thinking about it, he felt that it would not happen.

It's just that Luo Beixi has his own secret, so as soon as Luo Beixi knew about "Gu Xingyuan", he first thought about whether he was being targeted.

Luo Beixi After thinking for a while, he decided to go over and take a look the next day, but he roped in another person, and when he became suspicious, his purpose became two.

One is to judge whether his guess is because he is suspicious or if it is really possible; the second is of course to go to the store and look for what he needs...

Now that Luo Beixi has left the "Gu Xingyuan" and has returned to the sect, in a relatively safe environment, he quickly sent a message to ask the middle-aged Soul Cultivator, and the other party also answered quickly.

Moreover, the meaning of the middle-aged Soul Cultivator's words gave people a very direct feeling. It was just like stating some things without mixing his thoughts. When these words fell into Luo Beixi's mind, he felt different.

In the description of middle-aged Soul Cultivator, there was no direct evidence that there was something wrong with those two people, but it also failed to provide him with any unusual clues.

When the waiter in the store first saw the two of them, his soul fluctuated violently, which could be understood to mean that he was just a little demon.

With Luo Beixi's special physique, he has always been very sensitive to Demon Beast. When he came back from the party yesterday and stopped to look at it from a distance, he was sure that the shop assistant in "Gu Xingyuan" was a Demon Beast.

However, there is nothing special about this matter. Immortal Spirit Realm There are many races of various sizes. Demon Cultivator can be said to be everywhere in Fang City and Xiuxian City.

In fact, White Devil Race is also a kind of Demon Beast, but because their bodies are very tough, their ancestors call themselves the more domineering "devil"!

Today, because the little demon's cultivation level was too low, he could not sense the approach of the two of them. He suddenly heard himself talking, and was stimulated without warning. His soul fluctuated violently, which was within a reasonable range.

Later, little Demon Beast went to the backyard to report the matter. In a panic, his soul fluctuated again, but it could still be considered within the normal range.

The soul of Wang Xing did not fluctuate much. Where was the opponent's cultivation? After all, he was a monk of Void Refinement Early Stage. Although he heard that two "Holy Devil Palace" monks arrived together, he was not too surprised, and it was within the normal range.

If a monk above Void Refinement Realm suddenly arrives, and if Wang Xing's soul only fluctuates slightly, then there must be something wrong with this person.

Through his conversation with Wang Xing, he could see that this man was a veteran in business and his words were quite rigorous. It was difficult to directly discover the problem from the other person's words, so this also prevented him from clarifying his guess.

"... There is nothing that senior brother wants in his shop, so they can't possibly use this as a lure to get senior brother to take the bait!"

Middle-aged Soul Cultivator continued.

Luo Beixi nodded, and he asked Junior Brother Ye to follow him, just to see if a shop like this that specialized in selling Gu insects had anything he needed.

If he discovers that it really exists, he will not be happy about it, but will have to be very careful.

Now after hearing what Junior Brother Ye said, Luo Beixi felt a little relieved. If someone who didn't know his own details wanted to use a Gu insect shop to set up a hook, then he would have made the wrong calculation.

As for Wang Xing, he is also quite proficient in Gu control. I have read his information and found out that this person is not from the Cangxuan Realm, but should be an outside monk from other large realms.

Luo Beixi doesn't have much doubt about this. It's like a special type of monk. Once he decides to show his face, he will basically stay away from the place where he practices and doesn't want others to know his details...

In this way, Luo Beixi also had many questions. After saying goodbye to the middle-aged Soul Cultivator soon, he returned to his cave abode!
