Chapter 3044: Chapter 83: Hello! Dominant Tycoon Senior Brother

...

Around the same time.

In a secluded courtyard in Wu Xiang City, another group was also waiting anxiously for someone.

This was a rather understated courtyard, not small in size, quite spacious, but truly very remote. There weren’t even many shops around, and usually, there were few people coming by.

It’s worth noting that Wu Xiang City is known as Southern Blaze Divine Continent’s "Number One Market," and although its area is only about thirty percent of Luojing, its bustling nature is no less impressive. Finding such a sparsely populated area here is quite a feat.

In the courtyard.

A sakura tree was in full bloom.

It was evident that this tree had been well taken care of. Now in the flower season, the tree was covered with stunning pink sakura blossoms, appearing like clusters of pink clouds from afar, with flowers visible but not leaves.

The wind blew, the petals fluttered around like falling snow, truly breathtaking.

On the sakura tree, a young girl in a pink flowing immortal dress leaned over the tree trunk, holding a handful of pine nuts. She was nibbling on the nuts herself, while playfully teasing a chubby little squirrel with the fragrant kernels.

At the stone table below, a handsome young man was casually brewing tea, appearing relaxed and leisurely. His aura was so captivating that even the flamboyance of the flower-filled tree behind him could not overshadow his charm.

The scene truly looked like a picture-perfect painting.

However.

As soon as the two spoke, the serene and leisurely atmosphere was entirely disrupted.

"Twenty years, it’s been a whole twenty years~ When on earth can we go out to play?" The young girl in the flowing immortal dress pouted, sounding aggrieved, "Since we followed Master and the elders to Wu Xiang Demon City, we haven’t even been out for a walk."

"The sakura tree I planted back then has grown so big, and the squirrels living on it have gotten fatter. If this continues, this little guy will become a Level Two spirit beast from my feeding."

She casually tossed the remaining pine nuts to the fat squirrel, gracefully flipped to the ground, and sat directly across from the young man under the tree, staring at him and continuing, "Senior Brother Youzong, how long do we have to stay cooped up in this old courtyard? I want to go shopping, I want to go out and shop!"

Facing the playful complaints of the charming junior sister, the young man’s face showed a helpless smile, "Little Junior Sister Xuan Ying, this Wu Xiang Demon City is the stronghold of the Nether Soul Hall, and the streets are practically filled with deviants at every step and evildoers every five steps! Walking around a store could have the ceiling fall and crush a bunch of wicked cultivators. In such a dangerous place, we should honestly just stay with Master, guarding this courtyard."

"Senior Brother Youzong, are you treating me like a three-year-old?" Little Junior Sister Xuan Ying’s watery innocent eyes widened, "I am over eight hundred years old, a cultivator of Level Five in the Transcendent Void Realm. Everyone knows that Wu Xiang City is renowned for its commerce, and every two thousand years, there’s a grand black market auction! If such a place were full of dangers, who would come to trade here?"

Seeing his lie uncovered, Senior Brother Youzong could only cough twice and explained, "Others might be fine, but our Heavenly Dao Alliance is the last hope of the righteous path in Southern Blaze Divine Continent. The major magic path factions have long wanted to eliminate us completely."

"Heh~" Little Junior Sister Xuan Ying scoffed, "With the power of our Heavenly Dao Alliance, if they wanted to eliminate us, they would have done it long ago. Now, with the black market auction approaching, merchants and big figures from all directions are gathering in Wu Xiang City. Even if I stood on the street and announced I am the little disciple of the Heavenly Dao Alliance’s Hierarch, the Nether Soul Hall, to maintain its commercial reputation, would have to stand up to protect me, lest I get sabotaged by organizations like Bliss Demon Sect."

"Little Junior Sister Xuan Ying." Seeing that he couldn’t deceive her, Senior Brother Youzong sighed and had to speak the truth, "To be honest, Master and the two Golden Immortals of the alliance have been in this courtyard waiting for twenty years, actually waiting for a very important figure. Perhaps, this could be a meeting that changes the fate of our Heavenly Dao Alliance. So, we youngsters should not complicate matters."

Upon hearing this, Little Junior Sister Xuan Ying’s eyes showed a slight disappointment: "Senior Brother Youzong, I understand, I will behave."

Senior Brother Youzong’s eyes showed a hint of reluctance, gently ruffling her hair to comfort her, "Once this situation is resolved, Senior Brother will definitely take you out for a fun shopping trip."

"Oh."

Little Junior Sister Xuan Ying’s mood still appeared somewhat downcast.

As they were chatting, suddenly, a middle-aged man with a gentle appearance wearing a daoist robe appeared in the corridor.

Although middle-aged, he didn’t look very old, his features still appeared youthful, exuding a deep and majestic presence, with a remarkable demeanor. He only had some beard on his chin, giving him a somewhat weathered air, and a deeper and more profound depth that comes with the passage of time, making him look mature and steady.

He walked leisurely towards the two, smiling as he said, "Youzong, since your little junior sister is feeling stifled, just take her out for a stroll."

"Master?"

Seeing him, Little Junior Sister Xuan Ying quickly stood up, her expression slightly flustered.

"Master! This..." Senior Brother Youzong was also somewhat apprehensive, "Is this appropriate?"

"No problem, no problem." The mature middle-aged man stroked his beard, appearing relaxed, "The important figure has already secretly arrived in Wu Xiang Demon City and sent a message in secret, planning to visit soon. Furthermore, as Xuan Ying said, with merchants gathering in Wu Xiang City now, the Nether Soul Hall would certainly maintain its commercial reputation. Even if you reveal your Heavenly Dao Alliance identity, it would be no problem. Can the black market do business with the Four Great Divine Continents but not with our Heavenly Dao Alliance?"
