Hearing Liu Mufeng’s remarks, Xue Hao snorted contemptuously. “You’re lying! I don’t believe your nonsense. Since City Lord Wang has cut off the father-daughter relationship with your mother back then, how can it be possible to restore the relationship with his grandson now?”

Looking at Xue Hao, still doubting his identity, Liu Mufeng smiled. Then, raising his hand, he slowly took out a key from his storage ring. “This is the key to my residence. I live in the East of Black Dragon City, No. 6 Cross Street. The Young City Master can send someone to check it out in Black Dragon City. In addition, the Young City Master can also find two painters to paint a portrait ofXiaoXu and me. Then take the portraits of the two of us to find our neighbors nearby and ask to see if we have lived there for four years.”

“You, you…” Xue Hao opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say, glaring at Liu Mufeng who looked calm and composed, without a trace of panic as he spoke so frankly.

“I came to Rune City today with sincerity. This key is a small gift. I’ll give it to the Young City Master.” After speaking, Liu Mufeng put the key on the coffee table.

Looking at the indifferent and calm Liu Mufeng, and then looking at his angry son, Xue Gang shook his head helplessly. He turned to look at Liu Mufeng. “Nephew Liu, don’t listen to Hao‘er‘s nonsense. He is just a child. Your mansion is your private property. How can you give this key away casually?”

“It doesn’t matter. It’s just a place to cultivate. If the Young City Master likes it, what’s the harm in giving it to the Young City Master?” Laughing, Liu Mufeng said generously.

“No, no, that’s the house that City Lord Wang gave you. How can we occupy the nest?” Shaking his head, Xue Gang hurriedly refused.

“You, do you really live in Black Dragon City?” Xue Hao asked again, looking at the guiltless Liu Mufeng.

“Yes, I live in Black Dragon City. I have lived there for four years.” This is the truth.

“But, didn’t you say that your grandfather City Lord Wang and you have mended the relationship? Why don’t you live in the City Lord’s mansion if that’s the case? Why do you want to live elsewhere?” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Xue Hao asked again.

Hearing this, Liu Mufeng smiled wryly. “Young City Master, I’m just my grandfather’s grandson. My surname is not Wang. I have three uncles and five cousins. The Wang family has a large population. So it’s very inconvenient for me to live in the City Lord’s mansion with a foreign surname. Besides, there are too many people. It also affected my cultivation. That’s why my grandfather bought a house outside, allowing me to live in a quiet place to cultivate with peace of mind.”

“That’s it?” Xue Hao was still a little dubious.

“Enough! The matter of nephew Liu as the grandson of City Lord Wang is a family affair, so don’t ask anymore questions!” Glancing at his son, Xue Gang signaled his son not to ask any more questions.

“Yes, father!” In response, Xue Hao stopped asking.

“Can’t I listen too?” Xue Hao asked.

“Young City Lord can stay.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng did not drive him away. After all, whether this matter can be accomplished or not depends on this person.

“Good.” Hearing this, Xue Hao didn’t leave.

Glancing at the closed door, Liu Mufeng nodded. He took out a list from his storage ring. He got up and walked to Xue Gang and handed it over to the other party. “City Lord Xue, I want these talismans.”

“Oh?” Taking the list, Xue Gang glanced from top to bottom. They wanted a lot of second-level magic talismans, and also twenty third-level directional teleportation talismans.

“So many? Together, these spirit talismans cost at least 80 million spirit stones. You have just returned to the Wang family for four years, and the City Lord has already given you such an important job as purchasing these?” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Xue said Hao asked suspiciously.

“No, this isn’t the magic talisman that the Black Dragon City wants to buy. This is a batch of magic talismans that my Dao companion and I need.” Looking at Xue Hao, Liu Mufeng told the truth.

“Nephew Liu, may I take the liberty to ask, what’s the use of you wanting so many talismans?” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Xue Gang just asked curiously.

“For the Cang Mountain Secret Realm.” Liu Mufeng didn’t hide it and told the truth.

“The Cang Mountain Secret Realm? Isn’t the Secret Realm of Cang Mountain still three years away from opening?” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Xue Gang’s eyes were full of doubts.

“No, it doesn’t take three years. It will be opened in eight months.” Looking at the shocked City Lord, Liu Mufeng said confidently.

“Impossible. The Cang Mountain Secret Realm opens every hundred years, and only three years later will be the one-hundred-year period.” Shaking his head, Xue Hao didn’t believe it.

“No, the Cang Mountain Secret Realm has been opened twelve times, but it was not a hundred years each time it was opened. There was a gap of ninety-seven years and three months between the first and second opening. The second time it was opened. It’s been ninety-six years and eight months between the third opening…” Looking at Xue Hao, Liu Mufeng explained the exact time between the twelve openings.

After listening to Liu Mufeng’s words, Xue Hao opened his mouth in shock. “You, how do you know such details?”

“It’s written in ancient books. I often go to my grandfather’s study room to read some ancient and historical books. Also, I can understand ancient texts, and I can understand many ancient books. I know that the secret realm will be opened in eight months. I guessed it based on the operation ofJiaziin the past twelve years. However, I can’t guarantee whether the secret realm will be opened at that time. However, if the Young City Master wants to go to the secret realm, I advise you to prepare as soon as possible. It is absolutely impossible for the secret realm to be opened after three years. Because, in the past 12 openings and eleven intervals, it has never been a hundred years.” Looking at Xue Hao, Liu Mufeng said.

“Oh, I see.” Nodding, Xue Hao looked at Liu Mufeng with a strange expression for a long time. He thought to himself,‘This guy is really amazing, he actually understands the Cang Mountain Secret Realm in such detail, he even figured out when it will be opened.’

“Thank you, Nephew Liu for telling me.” Smiling, Xue Gang smiled and thanked him.

“City Lord Xue, there is no need to be polite. Let’s get down to business. Let’s talk about our business. I don’t know if City Lord Xue has any goods on the list.” Looking at Xue Gang, Liu Mufeng asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Xue Gang smiled. “If my Rune City has no goods, what is Rune City?”

Looking at Xue Gang, who was full of confidence, Liu Mufeng nodded. “I knew that you must have no problem finding the materials, City Lord Xue.”

“Of course, there will be no problem. Within five days, I will be able to prepare the batch of magic talismans that Nephew Liu wants. However, 80 million spirit stones are not a small number. I can count on City Lord Wang’s sake. So I’ll give Nephew Liu a 10% discount, seventy-two million spirit stones. What does Nephew Liu think?” Laughing at Liu Mufeng, Xue Gang asked.

Hearing this, Liu Mufeng smiled wryly. He bowed his head and turned to Xue Gang. “Many thanks to City Lord Xue for his kindness. However, the younger generation doesn’t have that many spirit stones.”

Hearing this, Xue Hao couldn’t help but widen his eyes. “Hey, you don’t have spirit stones, and yet you came to my house to buy magic talismans? Are you here to play the father and son with insincerity?”

“Nephew Liu, do you want to owe a portion of the spirit stones in the name of City Lord Wang?” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Xue Gang asked calmly.

“No, I don’t even want to give out a single spirit stone.” Shaking his head, Liu Mufeng said very seriously.

Xue Hao’s face turned black. “Ya, if you don’t want to give out a piece of spirit stone, then you think you can just rob it?”

Looking at Xue Hao who was in a hurry to quarrel with him, Liu Mufeng smiled. “Young City Lord, you are flattering me too much. City Lord Xue could crush me to death with a single finger in just two strokes. How can I have the ability to rob?”

Xue Hao’s anger subsided a little. “Then, what do you mean?”

“I just want to make a deal with City Lord Xue. Exchange other treasures for this batch of magic talismans.” Liu Mufeng said, looking at Xue Gang and his son.

“Treasure? What treasure can be worth 80 million? Take it out and we’ll see. We won’t exchange it if it’s not worth the price.”

Liu Mufeng smiled and looked at Xue Gang, asking for his opinion.

“Nephew Liu, I’m curious too. What kind of rare treasure can be so expensive? I want to see it.” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Xue Gang just said curiously.

“City Lord Xue Hao’s future, I don’t know if it’s worth the 80 million spirit stones?” After speaking, five Spirit Insects flew out of Liu Mufeng’s sleeves. Golden, green, blue, red, and brown. The five insects flew into Liu Mufeng’s palm, danced around in circle on his palm, and then was taken back by Liu Mufeng into his sleeve and back inside the bracelet.

“This..!! This is the Five Elements Spirit Insect?” Xue Gang was shocked when he saw the five insects.

“No. There is no Five Elements Spirit Insect now. But it is a close relative Spirit Insects that has returned to the ancestors by 30% of the Five Elements Spirit Insect’s bloodline.” Liu Mufeng said this thoughtfully and carefully.

“Five Elements Spirit Insects? Dad, what are the Five Elements Spirit Insects?” Looking at his father, Xue Hao asked suspiciously.

Glancing at his son, Xue Gang did not answer. Instead, he turned to look at Liu Mufeng. “Nephew Liu used them to wash the spiritual roots?”

“Wash? Washing spiritual roots?” Hearing this, Xue Hao was shocked. He thought,‘Can these insects wash the spiritual roots? Is there such a thing as these insects?’
