C35 – Speak of the Devil

Ding Liu, a broker in Creek Town, a secret agent of Pool Feather Mountain Manor, and a former immortal cultivator at the Core Formation Stage, why did he come here?

Liu Yuan was puzzled. He hid in the corner and watched as Ding Liu rushed over, pushed open the door and shouted, “Eleven, there might be a cure for my injuries!”

Liu Yuan’s eyes widened in surprise. Eleven? He was calling Wanniang ‘Eleven’?

He knew that Ding Liu was Six, and now that Wanniang was Eleven… Could it be that they were both from the Fallen Jade Mansion?

Liu Yuan was beginning to connect the dots. He had played the game before and he knew that Ding Liu was from an immortal sect called the Fallen Jade Mansion.

The Fallen Jade Mansion was located in the east of the Middle Continent, very close to the Sea of Eternity. Other than the Sea Slashing Tower, the Fallen Jade Mansion was the farthest east sect on the continent.

The previous sect masters all had the same code name — ‘Yellow Spring’.

However, their real names were never known to people. It was obvious that something was wrong with this sect.

The east of the Middle Continent, close to the Sea of Eternity, was quite dangerous because it was often invaded by the host giant beasts of the Devil Clan.

Many cultivators there trained themselves in life and death situations, and thus they tended to become violent and cruel. Besides, the buildings often got destroyed during fights, so these rogue cultivators usually wandered about without a fixed residence.

As a result, the place was always chaotic, crowded with people of all sorts, who were willing to pursue success and profits at all costs.

The Fallen Jade Mansion consisted of such rogue cultivators.

At first, they gathered together to seek protection, but later on, they began to start a business in the gray zone.

The members of the sect replaced their real names with code names and took missions for a living. They were not allowed to betray their clients.

There were all kinds of missions, and their clients were from different circles. Gradually, more and more people, from all over the Middle Continent and even from the other four small continents, joined this sect.

The sect didn’t have a good reputation, since some of its business could hardly be considered legal or moral.

They would do good things and evil things, as long as the missions were profitable.

However, players would still love to join this sect to make some quick money, and many studios would especially send players to the Fallen Jade Mansion to get Spirit Stones.

Therefore, although Ding Liu was an immortal cultivator, it wasn’t strange for him to work as a subordinate of a martial sect — after all, he used to do this for a living.

But, as a former immortal cultivator, he could never forget that flaming arrow that pierced through his knee.

And now, Liu Yuan had given him a chance to recover.

Liu Yuan was puzzled, “But why did he come to find his former companion? What does he want to do? Revenge? And Wanniang’s death… Perhaps it has something to do with the Fallen Jade Mansion.”

Betrayal was never allowed in the Fallen Jade Mansion, because the missions they took were usually top secret. If, in any case, the confidential information was leaked, it would be a devastating blow to the Fallen Jade Mansion.

Therefore, traitors were always mercilessly executed.

The survival of Ding Liu was almost unprecedented.

But what about Wanniang?

Did they escape from the sect together?

Liu Yuan was very curious. He thought he had probably come across some hidden plot of the game. Alas, if he hadn’t transmigrated, he might have been able to post another storyline analysis online.

Hearing Ding Liu’s voice, Wanniang was stunned for a moment before she stood up. The gentleness on her face was instantly replaced by a cold seriousness. She cast a stern glance at Ding Liu, “You found the Cold Accumulation Jade?”

Ding Liu paused and immediately replied with a nervous smile, “Yes, I found it.”

This puzzled Liu Yuan even more, “It seems that Wanniang has a higher status than Ding Liu? Or perhaps she has better strength or intelligence, so she appears dominant.”

Wanniang wiped her hands and sighed in relief. She softened her tone and said, “Don’t be so anxious. How many times have I told you? Don’t act recklessly. You can find a subtler way to tell me about this. How can you just show up here?”

Ding Liu nodded and patted his forehead, “Yes, yes, it’s my fault. But I’m not here just to tell you about that.”

Wanniang frowned, “Then what is that?”

She asked as she gestured for Ding Liu to follow her, “Come in. It is not safe outside.”

Ding Liu cleared his throat and asked in a low voice, “Where is the little one?”

“He’s playing on the hill. He has always been a wild kid.” Wanniang sighed.

Liu Yuan touched his chin as he thought to himself, ‘It seems that I can find Gu Chang on the hill, and probably the old man as well.’

From the looks of it, Ding Liu and Wanniang were very familiar with each other. It was very likely that they had escaped from the sect together.

So far, Liu Yuan had found out that Wanniang had also been a traitor from the Fallen Jade Mansion; after she escaped with Ding Liu, she settled down in this place working as a prostitute, fell in love with Gu Shisong and gave birth to a son.

However, Gu Shisong was killed and, as Pool Feather Mountain Manor was in trouble, more and more cultivators came to this place.

Liu Yuan could easily figure out what happened after that. Wanniang’s identity was probably exposed later on, and the Fallen Jade Mansion tracked her down and killed her.

As soon as they came inside and sat down, Ding Liu said in a low voice, “A strange man told me the whereabouts of the Cold Accumulation Jade. He knows that I betrayed the Fallen Jade Mansion, but he doesn’t seem like someone from the Fallen Jade Mansion. Instead, he wants to help, and I’ve indeed got the Cold Accumulation Jade. That’s why I’m here.”

Wanniang frowned, “You have to be more careful. This could be a trap. If you make a mistake, our lives will be at stake.”

Ding Liu nodded, “Of course, I know. I’m always cautious. After all these years, I have never been exposed.”

Liu Yuan agreed that this Ding Liu was a very discreet man. He had never expected to see Ding Liu here.

He had been paying attention to Creek Town these few days, and yet he found nothing about Ding Liu’s whereabouts.

Wanniang said, “I know I can trust you… but who is this person?”

Ding Liu said, “It is the man that Fuhuan took in a month ago. His name is Liu Yuan, also known as Liu Junxuan. Not only has he won the heart of the young Miss Gu, but he is also said to be a lover of the heiress of Water Moon Dock. I have never heard of him in the cultivation world. I have no idea who the hell this playboy is…”

Liu Yuan figured that he had got pretty much all the information he needed, and it was time for him to show up. So he cleared his throat and slowly walked into the courtyard, “You are right. I am a playboy.”

“Eh?”

Startled, Ding Liu turned around and saw Liu Yuan walking in with a meaningful smile on his face.

“Of course you have never heard of me. After all, just like you two, I have no choice but to live in the dark as well.”
