Mortals, and even my disciple Han Li, don't mess with me!

Chapter 67 Extorting Old Demon Yunlu!

"Fellow Daoist, have you figured it out?"

As soon as she sat down, Fairy Luo Yao asked the question.

"Your Highness has misunderstood. I only hoped that you could help me gather the materials I needed. Just now, I felt that quite a few fellow cultivators did not want me to obtain the materials I needed. I believe that this transaction will not be able to gather all the materials I needed. However, it would be somewhat ridiculous if I could not produce even a single one."

"So, if I'm not mistaken, someone is deliberately targeting me. They don't want me to get the materials I need. Is that right?"

Wu Yun then shared his guess.

After all, he has been in the limelight for a while and has become too feared by many.

If he were to advance any further, I'm afraid no one in the entire Tiannan cultivation world would be able to restrain him.

"I am unaware of this matter, but I believe you are overthinking it. Perhaps it is all just a coincidence, and you need not concern yourself with it."

Upon hearing Wu Yun's words, Fairy Luo Yao's expression changed slightly, and she then gently comforted him.

"I hope it's as you say, Fairy. Then I'll trouble you to help me collect the necessary materials. Collect as much as you can. I promise you won't be shortchanged afterward, so please rest assured. As for slaying the old demon Yunlu, that's truly a difficult task."

"Although there is a minor grudge with this person, it is not enough to warrant killing him. Therefore, Fairy, please choose someone else for this matter."

Wu Yun nodded and then declined Fairy Luo Yao's request.

"Fellow Daoist, are you worried about offending the Old Demon of the Joyful Union Sect?"

"I'm not happy," said Fairy Luo Yao, her expression not very pleasant.

"I'm not so worried about offending him, but I don't want to cause myself such a big trouble for nothing. It might also implicate the people around me. I hope you can understand, Fairy."

Wu Yun then patiently explained.

"However, if I cannot kill the old demon Yunlu, I fear I will never be able to break through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage in this lifetime. Therefore, I hope that you, fellow Daoist, can lend a helping hand. In the entire Tiannan cultivation world today, apart from the three top cultivators, I am probably only you, fellow Daoist, who has this strength."

Fairy Luo Yao gave a wry smile and explained the reason.

"Because of my younger sister's matter, this Old Demon Yunlu has become my inner demon, and the cultivation method I practice places great emphasis on inner demons. If I cannot resolve this, I am afraid I will never be able to break through in this lifetime. I hope you can help me, fellow Daoist."

"Inner demons, can't we use other methods?"

Wu Yun frowned and pressed for more information.

"I have tried other methods and supernatural powers to deal with inner demons, but they have all been ineffective. The only way is to eliminate the inner demons and completely eradicate their source."

Fairy Luo Yao shook her head.

"That's really a difficult situation."

Wu Yun felt a little regretful after hearing this.

"Not to mention that I have little grudge against this old demon Yunlu, with the Mulan clan's invasion, this old demon is definitely a great help, so it's really not advisable to take action for the time being."

"Fellow Daoist is right, now is indeed not a good time. Let's wait until the Mulan clan's invasion is over before discussing anything else."

Fairy Luo Yao nodded with a wry smile, agreeing.

"I will do my best to help with these materials. However, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to gather them all."

"It's nothing. It would be strange if we could gather them all, but it's perfectly normal if we can't. I'll figure something out when the time is right. There's no rush, this matter is not urgent at all."

Wu Yun was not surprised by this.

The two then got up and left the teahouse, showing no intention of continuing their conversation.

Wu Yun continued to stroll around the city.

But something unexpected, yet seemingly inevitable, happened: Old Demon Yunlu came knocking on his door.

"That old devil is really in a hurry, as if he's afraid I'll kill him."

Upon receiving the message invitation from the old demon Yunlu, Wu Yun couldn't help but smile.

He hadn't expected that the old devil would get the news so quickly.

And they came knocking on our door so quickly.

After laughing, Wu Yun got up and let Yunlu Old Demon enter the hall of his pavilion.

As soon as I entered the hall, the entire hall was filled with a somewhat unpleasant scent of perfume.

But Wu Yun didn't care and simply asked Yunlu the Old Demon to sit down.

"May I ask what brings you here today, my friend?"

-

Wu Yun was almost asking this question knowing the answer already.

"You don't know I've come here? I hope you won't interfere in my affairs with Fairy Luo Yao, or don't blame me for being ruthless. Although your demonic blade is powerful, I'm not one to be trifled with."

When Wu Yun asked the question, the old demon Yunlu retorted with some displeasure.

"Fellow Daoist Yunlu, are you threatening me?"

Wu Yun sneered at this and said.

"Threats? I wouldn't dare. I only hope that you won't interfere in the feud between me and Luo Yao. This is a feud between the two of us, and it has nothing to do with you."

The old demon Yunlu's tone became much calmer, and he said indifferently.

"Then I'll have to trouble you to do one thing: help me collect all the materials I need. Collect as many as you can, as much as you can. If you agree, then this matter will have nothing to do with you. If you don't agree, for the sake of my own future, I might agree to Fairy Luo Yao's conditions, since Fairy Luo Yao promised to help me break through to the mid-stage or even late-stage Nascent Soul realm after it's done."

Wu Yun then took out his materials list and handed it to Yunlu Old Demon.

He also stated his conditions and made a threat.

After hearing Wu Yun's words and seeing the list of materials he produced, Yunlu Old Demon's face immediately darkened.

Yunlu Old Demon's face immediately darkened.

"Fellow Daoist, don't you think your conditions are too unreasonable? Every single material on this list is a rare find in the cultivation world. It might take ten or even a hundred years for even one of them to appear. How can I possibly collect them all for you?"

"Your Hehuan Sect is wealthy and powerful, and these are just some materials. Is it really necessary to get so angry? Besides, compared to a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator, these materials seem to be nothing. If it really doesn't work, I'll go find your good senior brother, the Hehuan Old Demon, and ask him if he's willing to agree."

Wu Yun's words were a complete threat.

There's even a hint of "If you don't agree, I'll go to your parents" in it.

"I can only say I will try my best to help, but I can't guarantee that I can collect all the necessary information. But you must promise not to interfere in the matters between me and Luo Yao."

Yunlu Old Demon took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, agreeing.

"I knew you were a straightforward person. Then it's a deal."

Wu Yun readily agreed with a smile.
