Boss Jiang spoke gravely, “Mr. Tu has calculated everything. As long as we follow his instructions, this journey will be startling but not dangerous…”
The name “Mr. Tu” seemed to carry significant weight.
The man was somewhat reassured.
Boss Jiang continued, “After this deal is closed, we will earn a large sum of Spirit Stones. Then, the brothers can buy some Pills and Spiritual Objects to cultivate in seclusion. At the very least, they could increase their realm by one or two levels.”
“Once the heat dies down, we can resume our old business…”
The man’s eyes lit up at the mention, but he grinned sheepishly, “With so many Spirit Stones, cultivating in seclusion seems painfully tedious…”
Boss Jiang saw through his thoughts and kicked him, scolding, “Spend less time in the brothels, you worthless lot…”
The man grinned sheepishly, somewhat unconvinced, then glanced at Mo Hua and asked:
“So what about this kid? Are we selling him too?”
Boss Jiang nodded, “I’ve got it figured out. There are a few rendezvous points outside Qingzhou City. We’ll sell him there along with the others. We’ll take whatever we can get…”
…
The two talked until the deep of the night beckoned them with fatigue, and they both closed their eyes to rest.
Within the Sea of Consciousness, Mo Hua, who was practicing the Formation while secretly eavesdropping on the “story,” furrowed his brow.
“Several groups…”
“Mr. Tu…”
“The deal…”
It seemed these human traffickers were not just from one group but perhaps part of a larger gang.
And there were even Demon Cultivators involved…
He just didn’t know if the groups of Demon Cultivators he had encountered on his journey were also engaged in “abducting Cultivators.”
And this “Mr. Tu”…
Who was this person?
“Calculated” a journey that’s startling but not dangerous?
How did he calculate it?
Did he also know the Calculation Method akin to the Heavenly Secret, or did he possess treasures like the Heavenly Secret Lock?
Mo Hua was troubled:
“What should I do now?”
“Shall I bust this ring of human traffickers who ‘trade Cultivators’ in one fell swoop?”
