223 Boss Wan (2/2)
'But if we don't do it, I'm afraid the entire sect will die here! Since he was asking about the way to bypass the Ten Extremes, it's obvious that he wants to secretly make his way back in. He will not be able to give us trouble in the future...'
Thoughts were running wild in Han Yangkun's head, but all he showed was a wide smile. ”Sir, you're right... The Three World Mountain is mysterious. It is alright for us lowly beings to enter. The higher the cultivation of a person, the greater the chance to encounter the Illusionary World. This is a natural obstacle. Therefore, what do we have to fear?”
Taking two steps forward, his remaining hand struck down forcefully.
”Chi!”
Blood spurted everywhere.
This heavily injured young gifted Wu Zong, the Eagle Lieutenant of Da Qian, had become a subject for testing.
”Very well. You are trustworthy enough!”
As the mysterious spiritual knight chuckled, it was like the murmuring ghosts in the ears of the young master of the Nine Suns Sect.
...
Although the Ten Extremes were heavily militarised, there were still commoners living there.
In the desert plains, which was between the Three World Mountain and the defensive line of the Ten Extremes, there were a few special resources, like an extremely valuable quarry and a few species of special and unique medicinal herbs.
This was why the commoners of the Ten Extremes or even the businessmen and soldiers were reliant on these resources for their survival, forming a perfect model for business to thrive.
Of course, as these resources were being transported, there would be smugglers.
For instance, by paying lower taxes, they would profit more. There were many who would risk their lives for elemental crystals.
Han Yangkun had presented to Fang Yuan a way of communication between the smugglers.
At the mysterious point where three rivers met, Qin Qing lit up some smoke. After a long while, they could see around 10 horses galloping their way towards them.
Although they were nowhere as well-equipped as the guards from Da Qian, they were all still well-built and had murderous vibes, as though killing was their second nature.
”Where is Han Yangkun? Why is he not dead yet?”
The cavalries in front gave way, revealing an old man dressed in tattered clothing. He was extremely skinny and his eyes were darting around like a mouse.
”Boss Wan!”
Fang Yuan walked out from the shadows and waved his hands.
All the riders were 4 Heavenly Gate martial artists. However, the most crucial point was that Boss Wan, although unappealing, was a spiritual knight!
Without such a strong backing, how would these cavalries dare to travel thus far to trade?
”You are...”
Boss Wan had a suspicious look in his eyes.
From Fang Yuan, he could sense danger. It was a secret spiritual knight technique of his own, of which he had used multiple times to escape from danger. There was no way he could be wrong about Fang Yuan.
”That's not important. The most important is the fact that you are a businessman of integrity, and that you would recognise this, right?”
Fang Yuan laughed and threw out a black dagger blade.
”You are indeed the person that Elder Han recommended!”
Boss Wan took out a dagger's handle and pieced it together with the blade. It was a perfect match, and he nodded his head. ”The few of you, are you all looking for a way in?”
”That's right! Please assist us, Boss Wan!”
Fang Yuan clapped his hands and Qin Yun brought a large sack over to Boss Wan.
”Elemental crystals? These are low-quality ones!”
Boss Wan nodded his head and one of the riders went forward to take a look at the contents of the sack.
”A thousand elemental crystals for each person! I'm sure the price is still the same, right?”
Fang Yuan enquired directly.
”Of course not...”
Boss Wan rolled his eyes about as his mind went through a list of fugitives who had just escaped Da Qian. Slowly, he shook his head. He could not think of any fugitives who would want to risk their lives by entering Da Qian from the desert plains.
No one in Da Qian knew about the issue in Qin Family yet, and no outside would be able to see their motives.
Needless to say, there were no records of Fang Yuan in Da Qian.
”I have something to clarify!”
Boss Wan smiled. ”I have a path which links into Da Qian, and this path is able to bring you into the Ten Extremes. However, those without an identity imprint will not be allowed to enter the final gate into Da Qian. Spiritual talismans are used to ensure security over there. Previously, Elder Han could go through the gate smoothly as he was escaping Da Qian, but it is different for the three of you...”
”Identity imprint? Can we take a look at it?”
Fang Yuan thought for a while before asking.
”Of course!”
Boss Wan nodded his head, and the previous rider came forward and revealed his left arm.
On his arm, there was a tattoo-like imprint. It was engraved deep into his arm and into his veins, and on it, there was a little spiritual glow.
”It is a miniature spiritual array and is bound to our circulatory system, which makes it non-transferrable!'
Fang Yuan nodded his head and exclaimed. ”We just want to enter the Ten Extremes. Please show us the way, Boss Wan!”
”No problem!”
Elder Wan nodded his head in confusion.
The guards of the Ten Extremes had the equipment to check for the identity imprints. If they did not have it, they would be labelled as fugitives and would be killed.
Why would these three people dare to enter? Were they thinking of hiding inside the Ten Extremes? This would be impossible! Could they have people in the Ten Extremes waiting for them?
After a series of exchanges, Boss Wan felt that the three of them were extremely mysterious.
