Chapter 979: Old Zou is Alive

y. He calmed his agitation and whispered, "In the past month or so, this king has found several excuses to visit the fairy mountain, but each time I was turned away by that old geezer at the gate. The...Qiong Yu Chamber of Commerce.

Quiet room.

The steward surnamed Liu was in a gloomy mood and sat restlessly.

He paced back and forth in the room, glancing out the shop window every so often, as if waiting for someone.

It was broad daylight.

When Liu, the steward, saw the figure striding towards him from afar, his face changed slightly. He quickly put on a smile and hurried down the stairs to greet him warmly.

"Please come in, Master Dao!"

Mr. Liu, the steward surnamed Liu, was very hospitable and led Qin Sang into the quiet room.

He was about to pour tea when Qin Sang waved him off.

“Daoist Liu, how is the preparation of the spiritual herbs going”

Qin Sang went straight to the point, ready to buy the elixir and leave. Now that he had mastered the Six Demon Staves, he didn't need to waste time outside anymore.

“This…”

The steward surnamed Liu's movements froze. He raised his teacup, a trace of embarrassment on his face, as if he wanted to speak but held back.

Qin Sang saw the look on his face and frowned, saying in a deep voice, “Daoist Liu, is there something troubling you”

"Mr. Liu sighed softly, putting down the tea set and saying, “To be frank with you, Master Dao, I originally thought that by buying some from other guilds and adding to our existing stock, I could help you gather most of the required herbs. However, because all the herbs you requested are quite rare, the inventory in several island guilds is very limited. In order not to delay your important matters, I immediately sent a message to Camp around the Island, asking them to dispatch the herbs urgently. It is estimated that it will take a few days..."

"Circumnavigate the island"

Qin Sang recalled that Camp Circle Island was a rather large island in the southwest of Greater Asia. Although it wasn't too far, it would take several days to reach.

“Not bad,” Liu, the steward, nodded. “Daoist Master may not know, after the demonic chaos, the Chamber of Commerce has had several changes in a row. It’s only recently stabilized. Liu is just a small steward stationed on Dajiu Island. The one who truly controls the affairs of the East China Sea branch is Left Vice-Inspector. Ying Huan is highly valued by Left Vice-Inspector and he sent his confidants to manage them. They will definitely be able to gather the spirit medicines Daoist Master needs…”

After Qin Sang joined the Qiong Yu Chamber of Commerce, he had been following Zou Lao in the demon sea and didn't know much about the members from the inner sea. He thought back but couldn't remember who the deputy commander was.

However, not everyone can become a deputy envoy of the Qiong Yu Chamber of Commerce. There are only a few such positions in the entire chamber. Zou Lao was already a deputy envoy before he went to the Demon Sea.

"Daoist Liu, how many spirit herbs have you gathered"

Qin Sang pondered for a moment, then asked.

"

Less than 30 percent.

"

Mr. Liu, in charge of the household affairs, felt ashamed and said.

"30%, it's indeed a bit less..."

With a light tap of his finger on the table, Qin Sang pondered for a moment before saying, “Poor Dao has an urgent matter to attend to, and I'm afraid I can't wait too long. How about this Please ask your fellow Daoist to send another message to Camp Ring Island, instructing them to head north directly and deliver the elixir to Dongjia Island. Poor Dao will be heading west and will pass by Dongjia Island. We will meet there, and we should both arrive around the same time.”

Tung Chung Island lies in the northwest of Lantau Island, and is situated just north of Cheung Chau.

The Heavenly Dao Sect is located in the northwest direction. Passing by Dongjia Island on the way there won't take too much time.

When Liu, the steward, heard Qin Sang's words, he was taken aback. His brow furrowed, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

>

Qin Sang glanced at him, his heart clear. He said calmly, "Daoist Liu, please rest assured, no matter where the transaction takes place, this deal will be made with you, not some roundabout scheme."

Mr. Liu, the manager, forced a smile while his mind raced with worry.

At this moment, he suddenly had an idea. His eyes lit up and he said, "Master Daoist, your plan is brilliant, but..."

Mr. Liu, the steward of the surname Liu, paused for a moment and said with a hint of excitement, "I almost forgot that Daozhang had previously asked me to inquire about Mr. Zou's news. I mentioned it when I was transmitting messages around Ying Camp. It's a coincidence that they just received news of Mr. Zou's safety, and he is nearby, not far away. It is said that he has made great gains in the Qisha Hall and has been in seclusion, only recently leaving his retreat. Mr. Zou originally intended to return to Tianxing Island, but when he learned that Daozhang was on Daya Island, he immediately changed his mind and decided to visit Daozhang. This shows how much Mr. Zou values Daozhang. If Daozhang leaves early, I'm afraid..."

The steward surnamed Liu spoke eloquently, his words precise and convincing.

But he didn't notice that the other person's aura had changed.

Hearing the steward surnamed Liu mention Old Zou, Qin Sang's eyes narrowed sharply. His whole body tensed, he stared intently at the steward surnamed Liu, his gaze flickering with a dangerous light, and twelve thousand alarm bells rang in his heart.

Elder Zou has already perished, his body cremated by his own hand.

Absolutely!

But the man before him swore that Old Zou was still alive and would come to see him in person.

Could it be that Old Zou actually died and came back to life Could what I experienced at Huaxian Lake have been an illusion, a dream!

Qin Sang's thoughts raced.

Mr. Liu, the manager in charge, obviously had ulterior motives, but Qin Sang couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Both parties had no grudges against each other, they were just buying a single elixir. If the members of the Qiong Yu Chamber of Commerce were all people who saw their colleagues as walking wallets, it would have disintegrated long ago.

"Hehehe..."

Qin Sang sneered, "I wonder where Master Zou is now Since Master Zou wants to come, this poor Taoist can wait a few days..."

He kept a calm facade, but his palm secretly tightened its grip on the magic banner. He awakened the Heavenly Eye Butterfly and activated the Heavenly Eye divine ability to swiftly scan the still room, finding no sign of lurking enemies.

When the steward surnamed Liu heard this, he was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Old Zou must have left the camp to circle the island and is on his way back. Daochang..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Sang suddenly attacked.

"Whoosh!"

The sword glow tore through the cloak, instantly illuminating the entire quiet room.

They sat opposite each other, very close.

When Liu, the steward, saw this, he was utterly shocked. He never expected Qin Sang to suddenly attack without any warning.

He reacted swiftly, pressing his palm downwards with force. The stillness prohibition was instantly activated, and a curtain of runes descended from the sky, swiftly pressing down on the ebony sword.

At the same time, thick vines suddenly emerged around Qin Sang, twisting like pythons. In an instant, they formed a vine cage around him.

The vines curled and pressed inward.

“Master Qingfeng, my old self bears no grievances against you, so…”

The steward surnamed Liu was furious, but still pretending. His expression showed a mix of shock, confusion, and anger, all flawlessly disguised. He loudly questioned Qin Sang.

Qin Sang sneered and said nothing, her mind moved, and she pointed at the ebony sword.

The steward surnamed Liu hastily activated the silent room's prohibition, but the loophole was exposed under the Heaven-Eye divine ability.

The ebony sword flashed, its blade radiance surging, instantly splitting into countless sword qi and sword lights, transforming into a dazzling sword wheel.

"Boom!"

The Jianlun and the rune wall collided fiercely. With a screeching 'zi la' sound, an astonishing sight occurred: the Ebony Sword pierced through the wall, slicing down in the astonished gaze of the steward surnamed Liu.

The steward surnamed Liu let out a cry of alarm, his figure retreating rapidly towards the door. He quickly summoned his own natal magic treasure—a square mirror—and struck it with force, attempting to deflect the sword wheel.

Just then, a ripping sound suddenly came from within the vine prison.

A jet of black demonic fire broke open the prison, surging out and radiating a terrifying aura. It shot towards the entrance of the quiet room with a whoosh, severing the path of the surnamed Liu manager.he eerie general flew into a rage, pounding his brow with force. His eyebrow split open, revealing a vertical eye embedded in his forehead.The inside of the vertical eye had no pupil, only a black sha...
