Chapter 857: Chapter 857: News of Clues
"Oh."
Avana looked at those light and shadow images and found that among them, several were of exceedingly beautiful women. Moreover, these images were placed at the forefront by Zhu Fei.
A trace of curiosity appeared on Avana’s face as she pointed to the images of the four women and asked Zhu Fei:
"Brother Zhu, these four sisters are so beautiful. Are they your Dao companions?"
Zhu Fei followed the direction of Avana’s finger and realized that the four people she was pointing to were Tang Mengyun, Pan Tingting, Shen Yuyan, and Gu Youlan. He couldn’t help but think to himself how sharp her intuition was.
Without hiding anything, Zhu Fei nodded with a smile and said:
"That’s right, the four of them are indeed my Dao companions. The rest are also my friends from the Lower Realm."
As Zhu Fei spoke, he explained the light and shadow images to Avana.
Apart from Tang Mengyun and the other three women, Zhu Fei also transformed the light and shadow images of Yun Duo, Scorpion, Lin Hao, and others.
Since he wanted Avana to help find and investigate these people’s whereabouts, Zhu Fei naturally didn’t hide their situation.
After Zhu Fei explained the general situation about these people, Avana nodded and said:
"Brother Zhu, don’t worry. I will definitely do my best to help you find these people’s whereabouts. As soon as I have news, I’ll inform you immediately."
Suddenly, Avana seemed to think of something and added to Zhu Fei:
"By the way, Brother Zhu, if possible, you can also post a task at Xuanyuan Tower. I heard from Sister Xiao Die that the Xuanyuan Tower is one of the largest intelligence organizations on the Xuanhuang Continent, with excellent reputation and credibility."
Zhu Fei nodded slightly. He had heard a bit about Xuanyuan Tower before, and its intelligence was said to be quite reliable.
"Yes, I will certainly go over to Xuanyuan Tower when the time comes. As for Wantong Commerce and our Dragon God Heavenly Palace, that will be your responsibility."
"Brother Zhu, it’s no trouble for me, please don’t be so polite between us."
Avana pouted, seemingly quite displeased with Zhu Fei’s courtesy.
Zhu Fei laughed and shook his head repeatedly, "Okay, okay, we won’t be polite, if you say so."
Zhu Fei felt a bit embarrassed, thinking to himself that girls are just girls, not seen for a long time, they indeed change from before.
Avana seemed to understand Zhu Fei’s thoughts and gave a light, coquettish hum before quickly smiling and said to Zhu Fei:
"Brother Zhu, after I finish the things on my side, can you take me to live in your Yue Dan Heavenly Sect?"
"To my side?"
Hearing Avana’s sudden proposal, Zhu Fei was slightly taken aback, then smiled wryly.
But ultimately, Zhu Fei did not refuse, nodding with some helplessness, "Alright, it’s up to you, but you must complete the cultivation tasks assigned by Sister Long to you first."
Zhu Fei knew that before Long Mengdie left, she had given Avana the task of refining her body.
It involved using pure True Dragon Blood combined with the unique Body Cultivation Skill of the Dragon God Heavenly Palace for physical training.
This training would take quite some time, and according to Zhu Fei’s rough estimate, Avana would need nearly a century in the refining process.
However, upon hearing Zhu Fei’s response, Avana’s wild yet beautiful face broke into a radiant smile.
"Alright, Brother Zhu, it’s a deal. You can’t back out then."
"Yes, I won’t back out." Zhu Fei nodded helplessly.
Thus, at Avana’s request, Zhu Fei stayed in the Dragon God Heavenly Palace for another day, then bade farewell to Avana and her guard Long Hao before leaving the Endless Star Sea.
...
A month later, Zhu Fei arrived at Xuanyuan Tower and posted a task to find Tang Mengyun and others.
After another half month, he finally returned to Yue Dan Heavenly Sect.
In the time that followed, Zhu Fei hardly went anywhere, spending his days either cultivating or accompanying Qiu Ruoxue and the other women.
This way of living continued for almost three full years.
During these three years, Zhu Fei’s cultivation also progressed from the Middle Stage of Great Success to the Late Stage of Great Success.
Indeed, the Immortal Crystals Zhu Fei had previously acquired were completely exhausted during these three years of cultivation.
One day, just after leaving Ji Xuanyue’s room, Zhu Fei suddenly received a message from Xuanyuan Tower.
The message from Xuanyuan Tower did not give much detail, only informing Zhu Fei that there seemed to be some leads on the people he was searching for, suggesting he come over to discuss in person.
Zhu Fei understood that Xuanyuan Tower was a business, and before he had paid the necessary fees, they wouldn’t divulge too much information about those two individuals.
Without hesitation, Zhu Fei explained the situation to Qiu Ruoxue and the other women, arranged things at Yue Dan Heavenly Sect, and then headed directly to Xuanyuan Tower in Central State.
It didn’t take long, using the Transmission Array, Zhu Fei appeared a few days later in a luxurious VIP suite within Xuanyuan Tower.
A female cultivator in the Middle Stage of Great Success, wearing a colorful dress and with a graceful and beautiful appearance, appeared before Zhu Fei with a smile on her face.
Her name was Meng Qin, and she was currently one of the top managers at Xuanyuan Tower.
Zhu Fei had been received by Meng Qin when he first came to Xuanyuan Tower to issue his task.
Meng Qin was not unfamiliar with Zhu Fei and knew him to be someone who dared to challenge Qinghai Immortal Island and the Dragon God Heavenly Palace openly.
Fortunately, Meng Qin did not yet know that Zhu Fei had destroyed Qinghai Immortal Island and become the new master of the Dragon God Heavenly Palace, or she would not have dared to let Zhu Fei come personally.
"Hehe, Master Zhu, two of the people you asked us to look for now have some vague leads. If you’re willing, I can tell you the information right now."
Smiling, Meng Qin moved to a side table and personally prepared a cup of Spiritual Tea for Zhu Fei.
While holding the Spiritual Tea she handed him, Zhu Fei’s mind wasn’t on the drink at all but was rather eager to ask:
"Friend Meng Qin, please tell me, what have you found in your investigations?"
Seeing that Meng Qin only smiled without speaking, Zhu Fei suddenly seemed to realize something, quickly took out a Storage Ring from his body, and handed it to Meng Qin:
"Friend Meng Qin, can you tell me now?"
