Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]

Chapter 532: Buying Information

[Maybe.] Zhen Yuan said.

Although he had yet to see any law pillars, Fu’an was a large town and Zhen Yuan didn’t discount the possibility of finding treasures.

"Where should we go first?" Shen Xu wondered, looking around with curious eyes.

"Information broker." Zhen Yuan said and the double couldn’t help but be surprised.

"Is there something you want to know?" He asked and Zhen Yuan nodded but didn’t explain.

After asking around, the two learned that there were a dozen or so information brokers in Fu’an town.

Of the dozen, ten were local and mostly sold local information.

As for the remaining three, one was the Myriad Treasures Pavillion, another was the Black Market, and the last was the Tianji Pavillion.

From what Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan learned, the Myriad Treasures Pavillion mostly sold news about Treasures and resources, the black market sold all kinds of news but mostly ’black’ news, while the Tianji Paviĺlion was the most comprehensive of the information brokers.

"Let’s go to the Tianji Pavillion." Zhen Yuan said.

"Good." Shen Xu nodded but suddenly frowned.

[Ayuan, we only have six hundred thousand immortal stones. Will they be enough?] He asked and Zhen Yuan narrowed his eyes before speaking.

[We have already sold the things we brought from the cultivation world. What remains is what we have accumulated since we ascended.] He said.

Shen Xu nodded with a thoughtful expression.

A moment later, he raised his head and looked at Zhen Yuan.

[Let’s sell the low and mid grade pills, weapons, and others.] He said and quickly continued.

[Fu’an town is a tier three city and doesn’t have many powerful immortals. I think we should be able to sell level ten and eleven goods without attracting trouble.] He suggested and Zhen Yuan nodded in agreement.

"Let’s find a random shop." He said.

Soon after, the two found a weapons shop and sold the weapons that Shen Xu had refined from immortal beasts materials. Similarly, they sold pills, immortal grasses, formation disks, and others.

[Seven million and twenty thousand.] Shen Xu said after exiting the last shop.

[It’s not much but it should be enough to buy some information.] Zhen Yuan said and the double nodded.

The Tianji Pavillion building was on the main street.

When Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan arrived, they found that the door was open but there were two guards on either side.

"You can enter after paying an entrance fee of one thousand immortal stones." One of the guards informed.

Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan had already known about the entrance fee.

Although they were reluctant to part with so many immortal stones, they still paid the fee and entered the building.

The entrance was a main hall with at least one hundred doors leading to individual rooms.

At this time, thirty or so doors were open, meaning that the rooms were open for business.

"Let’s go." Zhen Yuan said, leading the way to the nearest available room.

After entering the room, the door closed behind them and more than a dozen formations rose around them.

At the same time, three futons appeared in the room; two at the centre of the room and one at the inner part of the room.

"Sit." A voice invited and the two turned to see a female cultivator sitting on the lone futon.

"What do you wish to know?" The female cultivator asked.

"We want to know why so many immortals from the middle and upper heavens have descended to the lower heaven." Zhen Yuan asked and Shen Xu raised an eyebrow.

However, he didn’t speak and allowed Zhen Yuan to ask the questions.

"I have four levels of information. Which do you want?" The female cultivator asked.

"What are their differences and prices?" Shen Xu asked.

"Low level information will give a direct but not a detailed answer. The cost is one hundred thousand immortal stones." The female cultivator started and quickly continued.

"Each level will reveal more information and the cost will range depending on your specific needs." She said.

"Give us a low level answer first." Zhen Yuan said but the female didn’t say anything.

Seeing this, Shen Xu took out one hundred thousand immortal stones and handed them to the woman.

After receiving the immortal stones, the female cultivator nodded and began speaking.

"The mid and upper heaven cultivators descended to the lower heaven thirteen thousand years ago.They came looking for some ascended cultivators." She said and the other two couldn’t help but be surprised.

However, they remained expressionless and continued to question the female.

"Have the upper realm cultivators found who they were looking for?" Shen Xu asked.

"Three hundred thousand." The female said and the double gritted his teeth but still paid.

"There are six targets. Five have been recruited to various factions but the most important is still missing."

The double’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this

’Six targets.’ He thought and a suspicion crossed his mind.

Thirteen thousand years ago was exactly when he and the others ascended.

However, he and Zhen Yuan unexpectedly ascended to a strange ascension pool.

Because of this, they escaped notice and were able to move freely.

’Could I or Ayuan be the so-called ’most-important target’?’ He wondered but remained expressionless.

[Xiaoxu, what do you think?] Zhen Yuan transmitted.

[I think there is no need to ask more.] Shen Xu said and Zhen Yuan agreed.

However, they knew that ending the questions there would cause suspicion so they pretended to ask more.

"Who are the targets?" Shen Xu asked.

"One hundred million for each of the first five identities. One billion for the last."

Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan were horrified when they heard this.

"Thank you for answering our questions. We will come again when we have immortal stones." Shen Xu said and hurriedly stood.

Soon after, the two left the Tianji Pavillion but were in no mood to shop, so they returned to the inn.

When the formations rose around their room, the two entered the space, sat in the peach trees garden, and exchanged a glance.

"As expected. This matter has something to do with us." Zhen Yuan said.
