Chapter 826 – Moonlight City
Indeed, the worker would shake her head the next moment and spoke, "I'm sorry, but I have never heard of the Pill of Truth before."
"You don't need to be knowledgeable about it to search for it. Honestly, I don't expect it to appear in Spirit Heaven, but I want to try." Feng Yuxiang said.
The worker nodded, "Okay, I will let Senior Gu know as soon as she returns. Oh, do you have a time limit?"
"Yes. Two weeks. If you cannot find it by then, you can forget about it."
"I understand."
Feng Yuxiang retrieved a small wooden box and placed it before the female worker.
"If you can find the Pill of Truth, I will give this to the House of Riches to show my appreciation."
"May I?"
"Go ahead."
The female worker picked up the box and opened it.
Her eyes widened with shock when she saw what was inside.
"T-This is Royal-grade Spirit Jade? Are you sure? A Spirit Jade of this size is worth over 100 million spirit stones…"
"Only if you can find the Pill of Truth." Feng Yuxiang said before taking the Spirit Jade back.
"W-We won't let you down!" The worker said with a serious face.
"Good luck." Feng Yuxiang said to her.
"Young Master, shall we leave now?" She asked him a moment later.
"Yes."
As they prepared to leave, the female worker bowed to them and said, "Once again, thank you for the Fl—"
"Ahem!"
Feng Yuxiang cleared her throat in a loud and unnatural manner, interrupting the worker.
When she looked up, she could see Feng Yuxiang staring at her with hidden killing intent in her gaze.
The female worker swallowed nervously and didn't dare to finish her sentence after seeing this.
"Feng Feng? What are you doing?" Yuan looked at her with raised eyebrows.
"N-Nothing… Let's go…" Feng Yuxiang quickly said.
Once they left the House of Riches, Feng Yuxiang asked, "What should we do now, Young Master?"
"I don't know, but we have plenty of time before the disciple examination." He shrugged.
Feng Yuxiang pondered for a moment before speaking, "Then how about I take you to the person who can remove Destiny Seals? It might be a while before you can acquire techniques that allow you to destroy Destiny Seals, as they're quite rare."
"Let's do that." Yuan nodded.
"I don't actually know where this person is, but I know someone who does. Follow me."
Feng Yuxiang took Yuan to the teleportation device.
After traveling to a couple of different cities with the teleportation device, they arrived at Moonlight City.
"The Moonlight City is one of the smaller cities within Spirit Heaven, but they're one of the most popular ones due to their purpose. The Moonlight Brokers operate this entire city, and they're a group of people that sell or buy information for money or treasures. If you ever need information about something, you can just come here. Also, they exist in the other realms as well." Feng Yuxiang introduced the place to Yuan.
Once they were inside the city, Yuan could see why Feng Yuxiang called this city 'small', as there were many stores cramped beside each other with barely any space between each other.
"Are all of these stores brokers?" Yuan asked Feng Yuxiang as they walked the crowded street.
"Not all of them. Some of them are just regular businesses. Look at that store over there. Do you see that crescent symbol hanging on the door? That indicates the store is part of the Moonlight Brokers. All brokers in this city must have the symbol to operate, or they are selling information illegally and aren't as credible."
"I see… Hm? Why did we go to the auction house if we can just ask the people here about the Pill of Truth?" Yuan suddenly realized this.
"Although the information brokers in this place know almost everything about this world, they don't know everything, and there are resources the House of Riches have that this city may not and vice versa. That's why it's better to visit multiple sources."
"Anyways, do you see that tall building in the distance? That is Moonlight Brokers' main building, as well as our destination."
Many minutes later, they arrived at the front of the tall building.
"That's a lot of people…" Yuan sighed when he saw the massive queue outside the place.
At this rate, it might be hours before they can even enter the building.
"Don't worry, Young Master. I have a way for us to skip the line. Stay here for a moment." Feng Yuxiang said before she started walking towards the entrance, ignoring the entire queue.
"The line is back there." The guard at the entrance said to Feng Yuxiang.
Feng Yuxiang didn't say anything and retrieved a piece of paper from her spatial ring before shoving it in the guard's face.
The guard didn't know what he was looking at, but he recognized the crescent symbol on it.
"Please wait a moment." The guard went inside the building for a minute, returning with a middle-aged man.
"Can you show what you just showed me to him?" The guard asked Feng Yuxiang.
"T-This is…"
The moment the middle-aged man saw the papers, his eyes widened with shock.
"W-Welcome back to Moonlight City, Benefactor Feng!" The middle-aged man lowered his head and bowed to her, dumbfounding the guards there, as they have never seen the middle-aged man acting in such a manner before.
"I'm here to buy information," said Feng Yuxiang in a calm voice.
"Please, follow me inside! The Boss will handle it!" The middle-aged man said.
'The Boss?!' The guards were truly shocked now.
Feng Yuxiang nodded before turning to look at Yuan and gesturing for him to go to her.
"Is everything okay?" Yuan asked.
"Yes, they have agreed to work with us." Feng Yuxiang said with a smile.
Sometime later, the middle-aged man led the two of them to the top floor before entering a luxuriously decorated room.
"Please wait a moment while I call for the Boss.." The middle-aged man bowed to them before leaving the place.
