Chapter 780: Chapter 782 Important News

The attic where Ye Xuan was had been visited by Xia Liu before.

Being a fellow cultivator, Xia Liu did not release his Divine Sense.

In such situations, casually glancing around at others is considered impolite.

Fortunately, Xia Liu wasn’t delayed; Ye Xuan and Ouyang Lingtian were resting in the hall.

Both were sitting cross-legged with their breathing synchronized.

It seemed to be a profound method of breath cultivation.

Sensing Xia Liu’s arrival, Ye Xuan immediately stopped cultivating.

Ouyang Lingtian noticed the change in Ye Xuan, slowly ceased as well, opened his eyes, and through a screen saw Xia Liu standing at the door.

“Xia Liu, no, it should be Chief Xia, what brings you here today?”

Ouyang Lingtian stood up and walked to the door, teasing him.

“Aiyo, I remember you weren’t like this before. It seems Boss Ye has trained you well.”

Ouyang Lingtian nowadays gave Xia Liu a feeling of being breezy and cheerful.

This was different from when he first met him.

Back then, he had been the Heaven Slaying Commando.

Embodying a thousand kinds of aloofness, he was now nearly transformed into a jokester.

“Giggle, I really didn’t do anything.”

Ye Xuan laughed lightly; people certainly change, and most of Ouyang Lingtian’s transformation was influenced by Xia Liu.

“Hehe, let’s not talk about this, tell me your reason for coming here, and don’t say you missed me.”

Ouyang Lingtian touched his nose, pretending to be somewhat shy as he spoke.

“Tsk tsk, in front of Boss Ye, if I dared to say I missed you, wouldn’t that be a death wish?”

“Hey hey, why bring it back to me again? Leave some room for you two to chat; I’ll go out for a stroll.”

Ye Xuan was getting restless–Xia Liu always teased her and Ouyang Lingtian during their meetings, and today was no exception.

“Boss Ye, don’t rush. I specifically came to consult you about something.”

“Figures, you didn’t come for me.”

Ouyang Lingtian shook his head ruefully.

“Hehe, Lingtian, do you remember our last trip to the club? That time…”

“Stop, stop, stop, when did I go to a club with you? Don’t slander me.”

Ouyang Lingtian panicked, glanced at Ye Xuan, wanting to vehemently explain.

Ye Xuan looked at the two with a straight face and said, “Enough, let’s discuss why you really came to see me.”

Xia Liu chuckled, then entered the attic with Ouyang Lingtian and Ye Xuan.

“Boss Ye, how much do you know about the forces behind Heavenly Mansion?”

“Oh, you’ve come into contact with them?”

Ye Xuan looked askance at Xia Liu, surprised he had encountered the forces behind Heavenly Mansion just two days after taking office.

“Mhm, I discovered it while collecting cultivation resources.”

Xia Liu felt hopeful; Ye Xuan might know this secret.

“I’ll tell you once your cultivation is fully unlocked,” said Ye Xuan coldly, smiling, as matters like this concerned many, thus she wouldn’t reveal them to Xia Liu lightly.

“This again?” Xia Liu was somewhat speechless; prior matters went unmentioned, and now even Heavenly Mansion was the same.

Could there be some connection?

“Yes, with your current level of cultivation, knowing too much might not be good for you.”

“Understood. Just wondering, does Lingtian know?”

“If you don’t know, how could my cultivation be higher than yours?”

Ouyang Lingtian smiled helplessly; his perplexities were far too similar to Xia Liu’s.

But Ye Xuan still had that same saying, when the time came, even if one didn’t want to know, she would forcibly instill it.

This is really incredible.

Ye Xuan looked at the two people, quietly drinking tea and saying nothing.

“Ah, Lingtian, strive hard…”

If Ouyang Lingtian managed to turn the tables and train Ye Xuan instead, and she admitted it, that would really be something.

“I will!”

Ouyang Lingtian clenched his fists tightly and stole a glance at Ye Xuan.

Pfft!

It was just stealing that glance, and then he got sprayed in the face with the tea Ye Xuan spat out.

“Sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”

Ye Xuan hastily grabbed some tissues, wanting to help Ouyang Lingtian clean up.

Ouyang Lingtian naturally wouldn’t let her fiddle around, after all, she did spray her own tea at him on purpose.

Xia Liu couldn’t help but snicker at the side.

To win over Ye Xuan, this guy still needs some more time and experience.

“Boss Ye, actually, the main reason I came today isn’t about the forces behind Heavenly Mansion but another important matter.”

After the atmosphere at the scene quieted down a bit, Xia Liu spoke seriously.

“Oh? As long as it doesn’t involve things your cultivation shouldn’t know about, if I know, I will definitely tell you.”

“It’s like this, I once saw in some ancient texts about a type of pill and Spirit Fruit that, once consumed, can preserve youthful looks indefinitely. Do you know where I can find it?”

Ye Xuan was taken aback, then said, “Are you talking about the Youth Preserving Pill?”

“Exactly, does such a miraculous pill really exist in this world?”

Feeling hopeful, Xia Liu knew that as long as there was a hint of a clue, he would pursue it.

“My goodness, there’s such a thing? Can it be that miraculous?”

Ouyang Lingtian was a bit startled, originally thinking Xia Liu was joking. But when Ye Xuan could actually name the pill, it was clearly remarkable!

“Of course, there is. In the world of cultivators, there’s nothing you can’t imagine, only what you can’t achieve.”

Ye Xuan gave Ouyang Lingtian a sideways glance. After all this time, hadn’t this guy read the ancient texts she’d given him?

Or did he read them and think they weren’t realistic, so he chose not to believe them?

“Boss Ye, please be straight with me,” Xia Liu was somewhat impatient.

Indeed, Ye Xuan knew the situation better than himself.

“A Youth Preserving Pill is classified as a third-level pill, requiring a third-level alchemist for refinement. During the Cultivator Era, the price of a Youth Preserving Pill was very high; if compared to present day, it would at least cost ten billion to buy one.”

“Ten billion for a Youth Preserving Pill, not expensive. Boss Ye, if you have a few, I’ll pay twenty billion for twenty pills.”

The one thing Xia Liu wasn’t short on was money. As long as Ye Xuan had them, he’d buy as many as he could.

“You’re thinking too much, how could I possibly have that kind of terrifying pill, let alone common ones?”

Ye Xuan gave a bitter smile. If she had Youth Preserving Pills, she wouldn’t even fear if she didn’t advance in her cultivation for a lifetime.

“Then where can one be found?”

Xia Liu had anticipated this result, but knowing this, there was at least a direction to strive in.

“I don’t know about the Youth Preserving Pill, but I do know there’s a place that has this kind of age-preserving pill, although I’m not sure how many years its effect lasts.”

“Hmm? There’s a lead, I need the address.”

As long as it could preserve youth, twenty years, thirty years, that wouldn’t be too bad. It could at least make the sisters happy. Even if he went bankrupt buying it for their happiness, so what?

“Harbor City.”

“Harbor City!”

As a person from Huaxia, Xia Liu naturally knew the place.

A globally prosperous international metropolis, a super financial center alongside New York and London.
