I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

In a quiet and elegantly furnished room in the Tianyuan Sect's residence in Jinyuan City.

Sandalwood incense was burning on the table, filling the room with its fragrance.

Through some of the fallen curtains, one could also see the slender and thin figure of a woman sitting cross-legged.

Among his slender fingers, there were also some unique sword-finger gestures, as he was gathering his own aura.

A faint, ethereal sword intent permeated the entire room.

"Come in."

The woman's eyes were closed, yet she seemed to understand everything around her.

As soon as he finished speaking, a girl who was about to knock on the door changed her gesture and pushed the door open.

"I hereby inform Lord Nan... that something important has happened in the city."

The girl spoke to Nan Siqi, who was meditating with her eyes closed.

Upon hearing this, Nan Siqi did not open her eyes, but simply nodded slightly to signal the other person to continue.

The young woman cupped her hands in greeting and immediately recounted everything that had happened at the Liufu Inn.

All the information that their Tianyuan Sect had gathered so far was shared with them at this moment.

When she heard that several third-rank experts had been killed, Nan Siqi finally abandoned her previous aloofness, opened her eyes, and showed a hint of astonishment in them.

"You mean... Grizzly Bear from the Northern Spirit Pill Hall was also killed by them?"

"Yes, although there was no body, it has been definitively confirmed."

The girl said respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Nan Siqi gently tapped her snow-white chin.

His eyes also kept flashing with light.

It seemed that they were trying to pinpoint Lu Xuan's identity, while simultaneously searching their minds for information about him.

Analyzing Lu Xuan's purpose.

"Let them handle the matters of the Northern Spirit Pill Hall."

"Did it have any impact on the conference?"

Nan Siqi asked.

No, not at all.

The girl shook her head.

"Then there's no need to worry about it; everything will continue as usual."

Nan Siqi said coldly.

She didn't care about the changing situation in Jinyuan City; she only cared about the Treasure Hunt Tournament. As long as the tournament didn't go wrong, that was enough for her.

"Oh, right, there's one more piece of news."

"It's being said that True Immortal Beiling will be coming to Jinyuan City."

Did Master Beiling come in person?

A fourth-grade alchemist.

That undoubtedly elevated the entire treasure-hunting competition to a new level.

The appearance of a fourth-grade elixir is on a completely different level than the personal appearance of a fourth-grade alchemist.

Therefore, the arrival of Master Beiling is also a very important piece of information.

Many people were already thinking about how to curry favor with this fourth-grade alchemist.

"understood."

Nan Siqi's tone remained aloof, showing little regard for Bei Ling Zhenren.

The female disciple immediately withdrew, no longer disturbing Nan Siqi's cultivation.

Nan Siqi frowned slightly.

"He has the guts to oppose the Northern Spirit Pill Sect within the city? This person is quite something."

It must be said that Nan Siqi also became interested in Lu Xuan, but that was all she was interested in.

Nan Siqi continued to devote more of her energy to her cultivation.

"If I could obtain a fourth-grade pill... perhaps I could break into the fourth grade in one fell swoop..."

"Unfortunately, True Person Beiling has long since lost the ability to refine pills."

"To obtain a fourth-grade elixir, one must venture into perilous territory..."

Nan Siqi's face showed a hint of conflict.

After all, venturing into dangerous territory would undoubtedly be extremely risky, and whether one could emerge alive would be entirely uncertain.

However, at this stage, Nan Siqi has not found any fourth-grade pills at this treasure-hunting event.

After all, fourth-grade pills are extremely rare.

Even if someone has some in stock, they won't easily hand it over, because this thing is different from a magical artifact; once it's used up, it's gone.

Spiritual artifacts, on the other hand, can be used repeatedly.

Furthermore, crafting magical artifacts is much easier than alchemy.

Thinking of this, Nan Siqi's mind became somewhat chaotic. She immediately continued to manipulate her sword fingers and circulate her inner energy to suppress her disordered emotions.

The next day, early in the morning.

Xu Jing left quietly last night after finishing what she had done.

No one noticed.

Lin Qiao was at the entrance of the inn early in the morning, trying to find Lin Haichao, but she still couldn't see him, which made Lin Qiao a little worried.

After finishing his morning exercise, Lu Xuan saw Lin Qiao's worried expression and immediately called the shopkeeper over.

"Shopkeeper, here are 50,000 taels of silver notes. I don't care how you spend them, you must find out about Lin Haichao, the master of Fenghai Martial Arts School... If you don't have enough money, come to me anytime. There's no limit, as long as you find him."

Lu Xuan said to the shopkeeper.

Lin Qiao felt a warmth in her heart as she listened to Lu Xuan, who was so concerned about finding her father.

"Grandpa Lu...this is too much trouble for you...I'd better wait a little longer..."

This is a full 50,000 taels of silver.

Lin Qiao didn't want to waste so much of Lu Xuan's money, and besides, she wasn't anyone to Lu Xuan... so how could she possibly do that?

"Money is just an external thing, it's just a little bit of money, finding the right person is the priority."

Lu Xuan waved his hand.

"If you really want to thank someone, then thank that father and son from the Northern Spirit Pill Sect yesterday."

Hearing Lu Xuan's words, Lin Qiao couldn't help but smile.

This joke is just too hellish.

"Don't worry, sir. The family has already given instructions. We will do our best to meet any needs you may have. It's just about finding someone; we don't need the money. The Chu family has its own intelligence network."

The shopkeeper knew how powerful Lu Xuan was, and he also knew the Chu family's attitude towards Lu Xuan.

They definitely have the utmost respect for Lu Xuan.

Given this, the manager of Liufu Inn readily agreed to all of Lu Xuan's orders and would do his utmost to fulfill them.

Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

Clearly, Lu Xuan approved of the Chu family's attitude in this regard.

Since the Chu family is so cooperative, then we should also bring them some benefits in the future.

"Alright, thank you, shopkeeper."

Since the other party refused to accept it, Lu Xuan only took out a thousand taels of silver notes and stuffed them into the shopkeeper's pocket.

That fifty thousand taels was for the manager to do some business.

However, this thousand taels also belonged to the shopkeeper.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper did not refuse.

This is a reward from your superiors. Refusing it would be disrespectful. Just accept the money and get things done.

"Thank you for your trouble, shopkeeper."

Lin Qiao stepped forward and said.

The innkeeper bowed slightly in greeting and then walked out of the inn.

Liufu Inn has also been closed to the public for the past few days.

Now that it's daylight, they've started repairing the wall that was damaged yesterday.

These people from the Northern Spirit Pill Hall have truly committed heinous crimes.

Since you're going to die anyway, why do you have to crash through this wall? Can't you just go through the main entrance?

Liang Wanquan of Guyun Pharmacy can hold off on making a move for now.

After all, Lu Xuan hadn't found a good opportunity yet.

However, Lu Xuan also knew about the Mu family, as they ran a casino business, which presented a good opportunity for him.

"Don't wander around today. Stay in the inn. On one hand, wait for the innkeeper's message. On the other hand, Yunshan will be coming with her sister. Please help me make arrangements. This 10,000 taels of silver is for you to manage."

Lu Xuan took out ten thousand taels of silver notes.

Since receiving those 700,000 taels of silver, Lu Xuan has gradually become more generous with his spending.

Ah, I knew it.

It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality

"No, Grandpa Lu, I can't accept your money."

Lin Qiao quickly replied.

Lu Xuan had saved her life many times and treated her so well; how could she possibly accept Lu Xuan's money?

"Here, this is also for arranging things for Yunshan and the others."

"Besides, your Grandpa Lu can't use your money."

Seeing that she couldn't refuse, and fearing that she would displease Lu Xuan, Lin Qiao obediently accepted.

"That's a good boy."

Lu Xuan chuckled.

He then swaggered out.

This inn is under the protection of the Chu family.

It was Lu Xuan who killed people yesterday; it had nothing to do with the Chu family or anyone else. Even if the Northern Spirit Pill Sect were to take action, it would only be to cause trouble for him, and would not affect Lin Qiao and the others.

Lu Xuan immediately inquired about it.

The Huajin Casino, owned by the Mu family, is the largest casino in the entire Jinyuan City.

In the past few days, countless experts from all over the country and other places have come.

When bored in one's spare time, one naturally thinks of ways to pass the time.

The Joaquin Casino is clearly a very good place for entertainment.

The Joaquin Casino used to operate from morning till night without interruption.

The news of Lu Xuan leaving the inn quickly spread far and wide.

When people heard that Lu Xuan had actually gone to the Mu family's Huajin Casino, they knew that another good show was about to begin.

"What? That Lu Xuan has come to our casino?"

When Mu Yuanhong, the head of the Mu family, heard this news, he was immediately taken aback.

There are so many casinos in this city, why did you have to come to my territory? What does that mean?

However, it's understandable, given the immense reputation of Joaquin Casino.

"Master, there's no need to worry. They're just here for entertainment. Our casino is a legitimate business, protected by the authorities. They're just trying to give us money."

"A Mu family elder said."

Although such troublesome people are not very popular.

If you open your door to do business, you can't stop people from coming.

We can't just chase people away, can we?

That would truly offend someone.

"Could it be that he found out that the person who attacked outside that day was from the Black Blood Hall of the Mu family?"

Mu Yuanhong said in a deep voice.

This is what he is worried about.

If I had known He Donglin was going to die, I shouldn't have agreed to this in the first place.

Now they're in a difficult situation, and it's hard to say whether Lu Xuan knows the inside story.

"Patriarch... in my opinion... the other side most likely knows that last night's battle was clearly aimed at He Donglin."

"Now that they've come to our Mu family casino, they're definitely here for revenge."

"I think we can leave this person at the casino for now, and then quickly go to inform the Beiling Medicine Hall to spread the news. This would also be a way of doing the Beiling Pill Sect a favor."

"The Northern Spirit Pill Sect has lost a hall master; this matter will not be left unresolved."

"No matter how strong Lu Xuan is, how could he possibly be an enemy of the Northern Spirit Pill Sect?"

Another, younger elder said.

That makes sense.

"The Northern Spirit Pill Sect will definitely take some action, and our Mu family can take this opportunity to establish a cooperative relationship with the Northern Spirit Pill Sect."

"There are also rumors that True Person Beiling will personally come to Jinyuan City at that time."

Everyone settled on this idea and did not harbor any wishful thinking.

Mu Yuanhong had already made up his mind.

That's fine too; let's use someone else to do the dirty work.

The Mu family has lost far too many people.

"Alright, then we'll do as you say. Keep this person occupied, and then go and notify the Northern Spirit Pharmacy."
