Lighting Lanterns in the Mountains and Seas

Chapter 5-7: Helping to Pursue Women


"One hundred, there are actually a hundred, so many left, must be the stock left by that one, no doubt about it, definitely no doubt about it..."

Granny Qi muttered while circling within the cage, excitement evident between her expressions.

Yin Fei outside the cage observed, full of speculation and doubt. He had just returned from the contact point given by the other party with a message to deliver. The materials had been acquired, a full hundred fish, asking if they should all be made into food?

Seeing Granny Qi's reaction, he realized that the so-called "fish" were definitely not simple.

After trying to stabilize her emotions, Granny Qi came to the bars and softly affirmed, "Tell them to use as many materials as there are."

"Alright." Yin Fei agreed.

At Beishan Central, Jiang You'er quickly went upstairs to the second floor, standing behind Huang Ye who was at the window with hands behind his back, paying respects, "Sir."

Huang Ye slowly said, "Pass on the word, we will temporarily stop dealing with Shi Chun's matters, just observe, without permission no one is to act rashly."

Jiang You'er was surprised, "Stop? Orders from above?"

"Alas." Huang Ye sighed, "That one fell into a trap, was seriously injured by Fu Que, exposed his identity, and those above worried it has already alerted relevant parties, set up a net awaiting us. After careful consideration, they decided to stop and observe."

Since it's the decision from above, it can only be followed. However, Jiang You'er still felt regretful, "Could've gotten hold of Situ Gu's secret, just letting go like this seems a pity."

Huang Ye: "Those above naturally have their considerations, we just execute."

"Yes." Jiang You'er agreed.

In Yao Mountain City, beneath the Divine Mountain's vast grassland scenery, was indeed quite refreshing to the newcomer Li Hongjiu.

Standing on the undulating grass waves, seeing the green waves like a sea, people rising and falling with the wind, mind sharing the vastness of the long world, how could there be no wine?

Immediately took out the wine flask and drank two sips.

The result, not drinking was fine, drinking immediately disturbed the mood, returned to reality. No wonder, after drinking two good jars of wine given by Shi Chun, drinking this wine felt off, taking time to get accustomed to. Plus knowing more was coming, unwilling to settle.

No mood to admire the scenery anymore, looked towards the distant Yao Mountain City, felt meeting Shi Chun was more urgent, that rascal would not be lying about having good wine, right?

Just based on the supposed supply of fine wine, assuming true, he felt the journey worthwhile.

Immediately flew away.

Before long, landed outside the west city gate.

Looking around, according to Shi Chun's instructions, entered the city from the west gate and walked to a crossroads, waiting under a very obvious sign.

Very soon, a man came up to him, looked somewhat familiar, sized him up for a while, then smiled and asked, "Is it Mr. Li? I'm Xiao Sheng, remember?"

Both parties had simply disguised themselves, slightly covering their true appearances.

Li Hongjiu did recognize Xiao Sheng, after all, they had stayed together for a while, recognized him and greeted directly, "Where's Shi Chun?"

Xiao Sheng gestured, "Master is handling some matters, sent me to lead Mr. Li."

He knew well that without discreetly checking the surroundings back and forth carefully, Master would not appear easily given the current circumstances.

Li Hongjiu glanced at the bustling surroundings, said nothing more, nodded slightly, and followed him.

As he walked, he grew more uneasy until exiting the city from another gate, pausing before the vast grassland asking, "Exactly where are you taking me?"

Also took out the Mother-child Talisman to contact Shi Chun, asking what this meant?

Shi Chun straightforwardly told him, saying he had offended too many people, had to be cautious, just follow him, won't be any trouble.

Reading this made Li Hongjiu amused, so that rascal also knew he'd crossed too many people, put himself in such a situation for prominence, is it worth it?

"Your Master wouldn't just be hiding nearby, right?" Li Hongjiu teased, looking around playfully.

Spot on, Xiao Sheng smiled without answering, took out the Wind Scale and flew him away directly.

Across the vast grassland, endless as far as the eye could see, Xiao Sheng brought him in a few circles before taking flight directly towards Dazhi City.

The view suddenly seemed peeled of its verdant covering, revealing a layer of ash-strewn unsightly barren ground, as cultivators could clearly see it was a battleground aftermath.

Reaching here, they were not far from Dazhi City.

Soon, the two fell outside of Dazhi City.

Li Hongjiu glanced at the name on the city gate, asked, "Is the person here?"

Xiao Sheng said, "Master said Mr. Li would certainly think he brought you here with ill intentions, said Mr. Li must be curious why meet here. Master also said, Mr. Li is a smart person, what we say you might not believe, rather than meeting with misunderstandings, better let Mr. Li find out himself what Master has done here before meeting."

Li Hongjiu slightly frowned, just about to speak, Xiao Sheng added, "Master once disguised as 'Wang Ping', lived in hiding here for a year or two."

Li Hongjiu was surprised, that rascal came here a year or two ago?

To stay here under an alias for so long, he was curious about what Shi Chun did here.

Guided by Xiao Sheng's hand, curiosity led Li Hongjiu into the city.

This time, Xiao Sheng also transformed into a guide, explaining the general layout of Dazhi City to him along the way.
