I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 672 The truth of the past, the daughter of an old friend (4k2, please subscribe)

Half a day later.

The personal transaction session ended, and the Kuntian Fairy City underground trading fair, which was held once every twenty years, also came to an end.

Wei Tu left in the crowd, without any sign of abnormality.

But as soon as he left the underground auction, he immediately flew up and used the "Hun'e Evil Eye" to search nearby for caves and mansions with a similar environment to the underground auction.

Finally, Kung Fu pays off.

After spending about two hours, he finally found the venue of the underground auction he had been to before and the several underground secret rooms he had seen with the Hun'e Evil Eye in the basement space of a mansion.

At this time, Fairy Baohua and the two white-haired old men wearing evil ghost masks had not left yet. They were counting the proceeds from the auction in a small secret room.

Compared with the complicated restrictions on the walls of the auction venue, the formation of this mansion is much simpler, similar to the restrictions of nearby mansions, and can only serve as a warning.

I guess it's to hide in the city.

Wei Tu didn't spend much effort. He used his powerful spiritual sense to sneak quietly into the vicinity of this small secret room and observe the movements of the three people.

After waiting for a while.

After counting the account book, Fairy Baohua stood up and handed the item to the burly white-haired old man standing on her left. She said as if reporting work, "This underground auction raised more than 6,000 spirit crystals. After deducting the cost of competing products and the dividends to major business houses, we can still make a net profit of more than 1,000 spirit crystals... We can make a little more than the last auction."

"Mrs. Xin is so capable, no wonder she is appreciated by the Marquis and has the power to host the underground auction."

The burly old man took the account book and spoke with admiration.

Madam Xin is the current name of "Fairy Baohua". Wei Tu had already learned this from her when the underground auction started.

What really concerns Wei Tu is...

The "Marquis" mentioned by the burly old man.

If he guessed correctly, this marquis should be the deputy leader of the Nine-Nation Alliance, the other deity who stood side by side with leader Feng Yuanfeng - the Marquis of Bliss.

This is normal. After all, Lord Ji Le is the master of Kuntian Fairy City. If one wants to hold a high-level underground auction here, one cannot bypass Lord Ji Le.

However, underground auctions directly run by powerful figures like Lord Ji Le Shen Hou are still relatively rare.

Because underground auctions always have the word "underground" in them, they are equivalent to the black market in Kuntian Fairy City, and are considered "illegal" operations. A large proportion of the competing products in them are stolen goods from murders and robberies.

"Elder Huang, you are joking. I am just showing off my verbal skills. I cannot compare with the two elders."

"The two elders are the pillars of the Marquis."

Fairy Baohua shook her head and smiled, replied apologetically, and praised the two white-haired old men.

"Alright! The underground auction is over now. We have to hurry back to report. If we go back too late, it will be bad if we get caught."

At this time, another white-haired old man who had been sitting in the corner and had been silent suddenly spoke, interrupting their conversation, and said in a slightly cold tone.

Seeing this scene, Fairy Baohua and the burly old man did not think it was strange, as if they were already used to it.

In this regard, Wei Tu, who was observing secretly, could guess some reasons.

Although Lord Ji Le Shen Hou had an extraordinary status and was a member of the royal family of Liuyang State, this was his "status" after his realm had greatly risen. Before that, he was just the son of a maid of a royal prince and suffered humiliation in the palace.

Later, he seemed to have practiced magic skills...

Therefore, his temperament is much more perverse and violent than that of a normal cultivator.

Two or three hundred years ago, a steward in his house, who did not know the taboos, treated his talented illegitimate son harshly. He was then and there tortured to death as a warning to others.

However, although the Lord of Bliss was extremely strict with his subordinates, he also often rewarded them generously.

Therefore, even though many cultivators could not stand the habits of the Lord of Bliss and defected, there were still many cultivators who flocked to him and joined him, willing to become his lackeys.

……

Wei Tu waited for a moment.

After a while, the two white-haired old men left the secret room where Fairy Baohua was counting the accounts and walked into another room with a short-distance teleportation array.

With a flash of light, the two white-haired old men disappeared in the mansion.

Sensing the fluctuations of the formation coming from the surroundings, Fairy Baohua at the scene understood that this was the message that Elder Huang and the other two were leaving.

The smile on her face quickly disappeared, and then she excitedly took out a storage bag from her waist and poured out more than 30 spirit crystals from it.

This was the commission she received for hosting the auction.

Compared with the thousands of net profits earned by the Lord of Bliss, her thirty-odd spirit crystals seemed extremely scarce. However, for a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage, this reward was already extremely generous.

Even some cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul cannot compare to her.

However, when she was counting the spirit crystals excitedly, she found that a green-robed monk with an indifferent expression had appeared in front of her.

Seeing this scene, Fairy Baohua's face changed suddenly. She took a few steps back and reached for her waist, ready to fight back.

But soon, Fairy Baohua seemed to have thought of something, and a smile appeared on her pretty face again.

"I wonder what business you have here, senior?"

She knew that the cultivator who could break into this place was at least at the quasi-god-transformation realm, and was not someone she could deal with.

Rather than angering this person and getting killed, it is better to pretend to surrender and remain submissive.

Maybe, I can get some benefits from this green-robed monk.

"Sure enough, you are not her."

Hearing this, Wei Tu shook his head, with a hint of loss and relief in his eyes.

At this moment, he came in his true appearance. If this woman was the Fairy Baohua, she would never show such an expression and say such a rather unfamiliar words.

——During the underground auction, he did not see any clues in this woman and thought that she was the reincarnation of Fairy Baohua, who came to the Dayan cultivation world for unknown reasons.

But just now, when he was outside this mansion, when he used his spiritual sense to carefully observe this woman, he noticed the difference in the aura between this woman and the Fairy Baohua.

Although the difference was very small, it was extremely obvious in his eyes as a god.

He guessed that it was very likely that "Fairy Baohua" or "Madam Xin" had unlocked some secret technique or magical power after leaving the underground auction, which caused her aura to leak out inadvertently.

This is not just his random conjecture, but has certain basis.

——The monks who participated in the underground auction all concealed their identities. What strength did "Madam Xin" have to dare to reveal her true face and let the monks present see it?
This is unreasonable!
Many Yuanying cultivators present wanted to know the true identity of the boss behind the underground trade fair.

Secondly, there is no shortage of stolen goods in the underground trade fair, which are very hot and will inevitably attract enemies to hunt them down...

Unless "Mrs. Xin" has the ability to deal with these crises.

Obviously, with his early Nascent Soul stage, he probably doesn't have this ability... Even if he could rely on the "God of Bliss" of his boss, it would be too costly.

After all, it's just a small matter of hiding one's true appearance.

Therefore, there is only one explanation for all these suspicious phenomena - this woman's appearance is not her real appearance, but the result of disguise.

But what puzzled Wei Tu was.

Why is this woman so real that even a powerful man like him cannot tell that she has changed her appearance?

And...the person he disguised himself as happened to be his old friend "Fairy Baohua".

After saying this, Wei Tu said no more. He glanced at Madam Xin indifferently and flicked his sleeves.

The next moment, a black light appeared, and Madam Xin was like being hit hard. Her face became numb at first, and she swayed a few times, then she fainted and fell to the ground. At the same time, the black light that passed in front of Madam Xin also stopped in mid-air, revealing the appearance of the Red Dragon Ancestor.

"Friend Wei, don't worry. My soul-calling technique, combined with the body of a heavenly ghost, will not leave this little girl with any trouble after it's over..."

Hearing this, Wei Tu on the side nodded.

Appearance can be faked, but blood aura is not easy to fake. It was because Madam Xin revealed the blood aura of "Fairy Baohua" that he did not doubt this woman too much at the beginning.

However, although this woman is not the Treasure Flower Fairy, it is not difficult for him to guess that this woman should have a close relationship with the Treasure Flower Fairy.

That's why at this moment, he did not conduct a direct and forced soul search on the woman, but instead prepared to let the Red Dragon Ancestor use the gentle method of "soul-calling technique" to find out the truth.

——If Baohua died, his hatred for her would not continue.

No harm to the family.

This is why he is so tender-hearted.

"You start."

Wei Tu stepped back and gave the order.

Hearing this, the Red Dragon Ancestor chuckled, his lips moved slightly, and he recited an obscure spell. Then he bit his fingertips and dripped a drop of inky blue blood of the Heavenly Demon onto Madam Xin's forehead.

Not long after.

"Mrs. Xin" stood up stiffly, looked at Wei Tu and Old Ancestor Chilong with a dull gaze, and began to voluntarily describe her relationship with Fairy Baohua and what secret technique she used to disguise herself as Fairy Baohua.

A quarter of an hour passed.

Wei Tu roughly understood some details.

Just as he thought, Mrs. Xin was indeed closely related to Fairy Baohua, and she was Fairy Baohua's biological daughter.

However, Mrs. Xin had no idea who her biological father was, and Fairy Baohua never mentioned it during her lifetime.

But according to Mrs. Xin's current life span of over 370 years old, he should be Yuanjie's posthumous child.

He is over 370 years old and has achieved the Nascent Soul stage, which is even more powerful than Wei Tu who was 400 years old.

But there is a reason for this…

When Madam Xin was building her foundation, she failed to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. Knowing that she did not have much time left, Fairy Baohua gave her daughter an initiation.

He gave all his life's work to his daughter.

Of course, this is also largely due to the fact that Madam Xin's physique is similar to that of Fairy Baohua. Not all second-generation fairies can receive the enlightenment and blessings of their elders.

It was precisely because of this "initiation", coupled with the fact that she inherited the blood of the Fairy Baohua, that Madam Xin only needed to use a little disguise to act in the appearance of her deceased mother, making it difficult for outsiders to detect any clues.

However, this alone was not enough for Madam Xin to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in just three hundred and seventy years.

It is not that easy to achieve the Nascent Soul in the Da Cang cultivation world.

It was the Lord of Bliss who brought Madam Xin from the Da Cang cultivation world to the Da Yan cultivation world, and gave her the Nascent Soul Pill and corresponding resources, allowing her to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

And according to Mrs. Xin's memory.

The reason why Lord Ji Le brought her to the Great Yan cultivation world was very simple. It was because of her beauty that she won the favor of Lord Ji Le.

The reason why the name of the Lord of Bliss contains the word "Bliss" is because he is extremely fond of matters between men and women and likes to go out and hunt for beauties.

This is also the origin of the name "Madam" of Mrs. Xin.

But in Wei Tu's opinion, the reason should not be that simple.

Because the time when Ji Le Shen Hou went to Da Cang Xiujie was too coincidental, and it was too coincidental that he "ran into" Madam Xin...

——The Da Cang cultivation world is quite far away from the Southern Region. It takes five years to travel from Da Yan to Da Cang, even for a Spiritual Transformation.

The round trip takes ten years.

Although ten years is not a long time, it is rare for a god-transforming master to waste this time and go to a remote countryside.

"It should be the butterfly effect after Ding Lezheng came to the Great Yan Cultivation World..."

"The Lord of Bliss knew that Ding Le was looking for me, so he was investigating the matter. On the way, he happened to run into Madam Xin, the deceased daughter of Fairy Baohua..."

Wei Tu frowned slightly and came up with a possible reasonable explanation.

The appearance of a Divine Master in the usually barren Cang Territory was undoubtedly big news in the southern region of the Great Yan cultivation world.

And Ding Lezheng happened to be wanted for him...

Just imagine, if he were the Lord of Bliss, he would probably be interested in a Nascent Soul cultivator named "Wei Tu" and want to go to Cang Yu to see why Ding Lezheng achieved the God Transformation and why he was wanted for "Wei Tu".

"If that's the case, then the secret realm of the Royal Palace... has a certain chance of being known to the Lord of Bliss."

Wei Tu was in a heavy mood. After all, this meant that after Feng Yuan, he had another rival who was coveting the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace.

"Ding Lezheng, you act too ostentatiously."

He sighed inwardly, thinking that Ding Lezheng's death was not unjust. Even if he had not done it, he would have become a corpse trampled upon by others on the road to becoming an immortal because of his ostentatious nature.

“Yes, there are probably not many strong people in this world who can remain cautious after occupying a high position like me…” Wei Tu thought secretly.

Unlike others, he truly has a treasure in his possession and has the potential to make further progress, so he acts with extreme caution, fearing that he will make a mistake and regret it for the rest of his life.

It is hard to say whether it was the various treasures that influenced his temperament, or it was precisely because of his character that he had so many valuable treasures at his disposal today.

……

After finding out the cause and effect.

Wei Tu's gaze towards Madam Xin also became softer.

It was true that Yuanjie betrayed him.

But it is true that back then, he was besieged by Lou Sanhua and others, and Yuanjie, Baohua Fairy and others risked their lives to save him.

Since Fairy Baohua did not mention the old grudge to Madam Xin and asked her to take revenge, then this girl was not the daughter of his enemy, but just the daughter of an old friend.

"The old grudges have come to an end."

Wei Tu sighed lightly, waved his hand to erase the memory of him in Mrs. Xin's mind, then flicked his sleeves and prepared to leave the mansion.

However, as if he thought of something, he turned back and left a Nascent Soul Pill that he had refined in his early years to increase his cultivation next to Mrs. Xin.

Yuanjie is Yuanjie, and Baohua Fairy is Baohua Fairy.

Although they were husband and wife, they were also two living people in his eyes. He couldn't just ignore the old relationship between him and Fairy Baohua because of Yuanjie's betrayal.

Maybe Baohua didn't think so.

It was just because he saw that he was too powerful and there was no hope of revenge, so he didn't want his daughter to bear this hatred, so he concealed the grudge.

But...it's already dead.

Don't hesitate to speculate about living people with the greatest malice.

When it comes to the dead, we should think positively.

After all, I am already the winner.
