Chapter 264
Is this her???
Yu Xi took another careful look at the monster on the lantern.
Well, I can't say they are exactly the same, I can only say they have nothing to do with each other.
Although I knew that she must have become notorious after the Boundary City, this rumor was too outrageous!
If my brothers knew about this...
Yu Xi shuddered, not daring to imagine what ridiculous things they would do.
Seeing Yu Xi had already walked out of the lantern formation, but was still staring at the monster on the lantern in a daze, Zun Jin couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Murong, are you interested in the fourth young master of the demon world?"
Yu Xi looked at her silently, then looked away: "I'm not really interested. It's just that this is the first time I've seen something so strange, so I took a closer look. Are these monsters only found in the lantern array?"
Zun Jin shook his head. "How could that be? Because the monster 'Yu Xi' has committed so many evil things, her appearance can be seen everywhere in Huanghui City. This is to warn the people in the city, so that they can recognize her and run away quickly if they encounter her."
...it's over.
Now my brothers will definitely see it!
Yu Xi rubbed her forehead with a headache, and decided not to think about the horrible consequences after Zhong Xian and the others knew that the monster was her. She put down her hand and looked at the couple who were standing beside her, at a loss.
From time to time, they looked up at the stairs, anxious to go up, but because Yu Xi had helped them, they couldn't leave immediately.
Now that they saw Yu Xi finally looking at them, they hurriedly bowed their backs and thanked him repeatedly with gratitude.
"Do you want to go upstairs to find your children?" Yu Xi pointed upstairs.
The couple nodded quickly.
"I advise you not to go up there."
Yu Xi said: "Even if you go up, you may not be able to find the person, and you may even lose your life."
Upon hearing this, the couple's faces turned pale.
"W-what do you mean? So, has he already..."
Yu Xi lowered her eyes and didn't tell the truth. She only spoke softly, "You misunderstood me. Your child won't necessarily be in danger, but if you rashly provoke the monks, it will easily bring disaster upon yourself and be mistaken for a demon, just like what happened just now.
"How about this, I'll go help find your child. You're no longer within the sight of the Yaotian Sect cultivators, so I can send you away. Just give me a location, and if I find your child, I'll go find you there."
When Yu Xi said this, her tone was calm and steady, and she spoke with such skill, as if she had helped people find their children countless times before. It was easy to overlook her age.
Coupled with the strength she had just displayed, the couple did not suspect anything. They looked at each other, discussed quietly for a few words, and quickly said gratefully, "Then we can only trouble you. We really don't know how to repay you."
The couple choked up as they spoke. "We originally wanted to take our youngest to see a doctor, but we were distracted and just said a few more words when we saw him run into a narrow alley. When we chased him, he was already taken away... Could you, could you tell us why you immortals secretly took our child away?"
Yu Xi shook his head. "I'm sorry, they and I are not from the same sect, so I don't know what they want to do by taking the child away. But I will help you find the child as soon as possible... In order to save time, I will send you away first."
As she spoke, she quickly gathered her spiritual energy and made hand gestures, summoning a simple teleportation array beneath the couple.
The couple didn't get an answer from Yu Xi, and they were disappointed. But when the teleportation array lit up, they still choked up and begged Yu Xi to find their child.
When Yu Xi nodded, they quickly disappeared from the spot.
Zun Jin watched the couple disappear before his eyes, then looked at Yu Xi who was about to go upstairs, and followed him and said, "Do you really want to help them find the child? It seems very dangerous."
Yu Xi paused, looked at Zun Jin, and asked:
"Then why did you pay for them? You don't seem like a generous person."
She felt that Zun Jin was a very contradictory person.
On the one hand, he saves money so much that he doesn't even want to eat, but on the other hand, he is very generous when it comes to some things.
Zun Jin didn't expect Yu Xi to suddenly ask him a question.
She gently rubbed the hilt of the sword with her hand, and saw Yu Xi staring at her straight, wanting an answer to everything she said. After weighing the pros and cons in her mind, she said:
"If you can save their lives by spending a little money, why not spend it? As long as the money is spent on something useful, no matter how much it costs, it's worth it."
After saying that, a smile quickly appeared on her slightly heroic face, and she looked a little embarrassed:
"And I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but the money I have now isn't all mine. I don't have much money myself, so any money I can spend on others isn't mine. I'm actually a very stingy person. If I could eat and drink for free, I definitely wouldn't spend a penny... I answered you, now it's your turn to answer me."
Yu Xi turned his eyes away from Zun Jin's sword and nodded noncommittally. He had nothing to hide, so he said as he walked:
"Since you've already promised them, please help find it."
"Do you have any idea where the child is?" Zun Jin continued to ask.
"The construction of the Golden Tripod Tower involved both the Songshan Sect and the Yaotian Sect. The cultivator who took the child away must be one of them. I prefer the Yaotian Sect, so we can just find a cultivator from the Yaotian Sect who can take charge."
The Songshan Sect is very low-key in the human world and never shows off. Among the five major immortal sects, the Songshan Sect has the best reputation in the human world.
Zun Jin walked behind Yu Xi, staring at Yu Xi's back, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
[Although I know Murong is very strong, but now it seems that I am completely unable to deal with him.]
[Looking at her expression, it seems she really has no idea what the Yaotian Sect has done.]
"But even if she doesn't know what the Yaotian Sect did, the Xuyun Sect isn't a good thing either! When did Murong Ke have a daughter? Why haven't I received any news at all?"
Different from the voice Yu Xi had heard before, Zun Jin's voice at this moment was extremely cold. If she still seemed somewhat humane on the surface, her voice now was filled with indifference and alienation.
Yu Xi didn't understand, how could Zun Jin, an ordinary person with no cultivation, seem to know so much about the situation of the Immortal Sect?
There were more and more suspicious points about Zun Jin, and Yu Xi became more wary of Zun Jin, but he did not show it on his face.
There was nothing special about the next few floors. Yu Xi and Zun Jin had no interest in gambling monsters, so they went upstairs together and soon arrived at the first floor for medical treatment.
Most of those who can receive medical treatment at Jinding Tower are wealthy businessmen and dignitaries, and there are also many monks.
Most of these cultivators were injured, and those who were not injured came to buy and select spiritual herbs and medicines that could stabilize their cultivation.
