Ch249 - Xiaoyue's Worries

After returning to the room, Liu Mufeng directly set up a barrier enchantment.

“The cook at Helian’s family is pretty good, the food was delicious.” Jiang Xu laughed as he said this, he was very satisfied with the dinner today.

“Eat, eat, eat, you only know how to eat. Your man has leaked the news. Maybe tomorrow, people from the Sun family will come to kill us. You still have the mood to eat! You are so stupid!” Standing on the table, Xiaoyue reprimanded, hating for iron not becoming steel.

“Tomorrow? How is that possible? The members of the Sun family are all in the Zunhuang Continent? How is it possible for them to know we are in the Shengtian Continent? Xiaoyue, you are worrying too much.” Jiang Xu said helplessly to the little fox.

“How is that impossible? I don’t think the Zhou family and Helian’s family are good people. Maybe they will betray you and inform them.” Xiaoyue couldn’t help feeling a little anxious.

“It is indeed possible for the Zhou family and the Helian family to betray us. However, it is not easy for the Sun family to come here. There is a vast ocean between the Shengtian Continent and the Zunhuang Continent. It takes 50 years to go back and forth by water or by air. In other words, if they send news today, it will take 25 years for the news to reach the Zunhuang Continent. Even if the Sun family uses an eighth-level artifact, it will take them another 12 years at the fastest for the flying magic artifact to come here. Adding up the arrival of the boat and them coming here, it would take 37 years. And we will be going to Mechanism Island in two months. They can’t find it even if they want to find us.” Liu Mufeng had naturally considered these timing issues, otherwise, he would not have chosen to disguise himself when he first came to the Shengtian Continent. Changing his appearance was not only to avoid the pursuit of the Bai family, but also to prevent someone from tipping off the Sun family.

“They can make a teleportation array! We came here in a teleportation array!” Rolling its eyes, Xiaoyue exclaimed.

“Teleportation array? Do you think ancient teleportation arrays are Chinese cabbages, and can be found everywhere? The teleportation array we used has been destroyed by Mufeng, and they can’t use it even if they wanted to.” Looking at Xiaoyue, Jiang Xu explained.

“XiaoXu is right, ancient teleportation arrays are not so easy to find. I was able to find it because I read a lot of geography and history books. However, many cultivators are unwilling to read such idle recreational books.” Liu Mufeng could find the teleportation array because he had read the original novel, otherwise, even if others read those idle books, it would not be easy to find them.

“Actually, it’s useless even if they can find the teleportation array. The ship from the Shengtian Continent to the Zunhuang Continent left thirty years ago, and it will take another twenty years to return. Now, even if the cultivators in the Shengtian Continent want to spread the news, it’s impossible for the news to reach the Zunhuang continent.” Jiang Xu frowned.

“How do you know that there is only one boat from Shengtian Continent to Zunhuang Continent?” Xiaoyue asked again.

“Oh, so that’s how it is.” Nodding, Xiaoyue expressed its understanding.

“Not bad, you understand it in detail.” Liu Mufeng couldn’t help giving a thumbs up to his wife.

“Oh, it’s because I was bored on the boat. I often exchanged pointers with the Zhou Brothers. You know that Zhou Qian is more cautious and doesn’t talk much, but Zhou Kun is easy to talk with when he’s careless. We often talked privately. I asked him about going to the Zunhuang Continent, and he told me. However, I don’t know if what he said was true. But I know that the Zunhuang Commercial Firm is located in Jiang City, we can inquire when you are free. If we go back by this ship, we can only wait for the ship that will go seventy years later.” Jiang Xu sighed. They were going to Mechanism Island for 30 years, and there was no way they could catch up for the ship coming back in 20 years.

“No, we won’t be taking this ship. It’s too risky to go back by sea. At least four out of ten cultivators who take this ship to the Zunhuang Continent would die at sea. In addition, cultivators who take this kind of ship to the Zunhuang Continent, are very likely to be sent to the mining area to be a miner, or be sold as slaves”, Liu Mufeng frowned as he explained the situation.

“Is that so?” Hearing this, Jiang Xu couldn’t help twitching the corners of his mouth.

“Yes, the Zunhuang Continent is the only high-level continent among the many continents. The cultivators are very xenophobic, as we saw from Lin Yu. In the eyes of the Zunhuang Continent cultivators, the people in the Shengtian Continent are no more than just chickens and dogs. Therefore, compared to selling the special products of the Shengtian Continent, selling the cultivators of the Shengtian Continent would definitely earn more spirit stones, and these cultivators had no background, and would not cause trouble if they sold them. Otherwise, why do you think cultivators from a high-level continent would come to a middle-level continent to open a business?” Liu Mufeng said with a smile.

Hearing this, Jiang Xu understood. “So that’s the case, I was still thinking about it before – People in the high-level continents all use high-grade spirit stones, how could they be interested in middle-grade spirit stones, and what’s more, the Zunhuang Continent had everything they wanted, so how could they be interested in the products of middle-grade continents? It turns out that the purchase of special products is just a cover, what they want are the cultivators from the Middle Continent!”

“Yes, in the Zunhuang Continent, it is very difficult to find miners. Therefore, human trafficking is definitely a profitable business. In fact, our Lingwu Sect is the same. According to the requirements of the sect, you must be in the Spiritual King Realm to enter the inner sect However, in order to have sufficient miners in the spirit stones mine of the sect, every time the Lingwu Sect selects disciples from other middle-level continents and low-level continents, they will also recruit cultivators in the Spiritual Master Realm, in order to bring them back to the sect to mine the mines.” Liu Mufeng explained seriously.

“Oh, that’s it.” Nodding, Jiang Xu felt that the Zunhuang Continent sects’ cultivators really had a lot of ideas in their hearts, they could think of so many ways to find miners and slaves.

“Then if we don’t take the ship, and the teleportation array was already destroyed, how do we go back? Are we going to stay here forever?” Thinking of this, Xiaoyue was very depressed.

“Don’t worry, I will find a way. Since I brought you here, I will definitely find a way to bring you back.” Liu Mufeng smiled. He just needed to go back to Zunhuang Continent according to the protagonist’s trajectory.

“Don’t worry, Xiaoyue, my Master will definitely take us back.” Perched on Liu Mufeng’s shoulder, Xiaoyuan was very assured of Liu Mufeng’s ability.

Xiaoyue rolled its eyes and said nothing. It knew that Liu Mufeng was very insidious and cunning, so he probably had his own way.

“Mufeng, do you have other ways to go back?” Jiang Xu asked curiously.

“En, there are other ways, you don’t have to worry. However, I want to wait until we have advanced to the Spiritual Profound Realm before going back. In those circumstances, we will be safer. If we go back to the sect to advance, the time will not be right, Master will be suspicious. If you advance outside the sect, it would be very troublesome for the Sun family to find us. Therefore, the best way is to go back after advancing outside the sect.”

“Yes, it makes sense. When we become cultivators in the Spiritual Profound Realm, even if we can’t beat that Grandfather of Sun Miaomiao, we will have no problem escaping.” The higher the strength, the more secure they were.

“Outrageous, if you can’t fight, you’ll run.” Rolling its eyes, the little fox said in a depressed manner.

“If you have the ability, when you return to Zunhuang Continent, you go and kill Sun Miaomiao’s grandfather. If you can kill that old man, I will confess to you like an ancestor in the future.” Glaring at his beast pet, Jiang Xu retorted.

Hearing this, the little fox lowered his head. He was a fifth-level fox, and was actually asked to kill an eighth-level cultivator. Wasn’t Jiang Xu too crazy? This was like its Master was wanting to kill him.

Looking at the silent little fox, Jiang Xu snorted coldly.

“Okay, let’s stop talking about this,XiaoXu, let’s go to bed early, tomorrow Fellow Daoist Helian wants to challenge you for a sword competition.” After speaking, Liu Mufeng stood up and pulled up his lover who was sitting on the chair.

“En.” Jiang Xu followed Liu Mufeng into the inner room.

Looking at the limp little fox lying on the table, Xiaoyuan flew over. “Xiaoyue, don’t be discouraged. Although our strength is not good now, we will become eighth or ninth level sooner or later.”

“Go, go, go, don’t bother me!” Seeing Xiaoyuan flying over, Xiaoyue said in an irritated mood.

“Brother Yue, don’t do this.” Landing in front of Xiaoyue, Xiaoyuan said flatteringly.

“What are you doing?” Xiaoyue asked suspiciously, looking at Xiaoyuan flying and buzzing around him.

“Brother Yue, aren’t you able to transform? You can teach me, I want to transform too.” Looking at the little fox, Xiaoyuan begged.

“You, how do you know?” Xiaoyue asked suspiciously.

“Hee hee, I saw you secretly trying to shape-shift on the boat.” Xiaoyuan laughed.

“I use the secret method inherited from our Nine-Tailed Fox. It may not work for you if you use my method.” Xiaoyue frowned.

“Brother Yue, teach me, I want to try too.” Xiaoyuan begged.

“En, okay!” After thinking about it, Xiaoyue finally agreed to the other party’s request.
