Ninth In the World

Immediately, Di Jiu sensed countless scorching eyes on him. Even Xian Wuxun looked fervent. He knew very well what was going on. Everyone had come for the Supreme Glazed True Silver. What was their purpose for wanting the Supreme Glazed True Silver? Wasn’t it to refine their armor?

Di Jiu, who could gift a half-supreme-grade flying vehicle, apparently knew a Weapon Saint or a top-notch Blacksmith Grandmaster. The most probable explanation was that Di Jiu was a Blacksmith Grandmaster himself. Otherwise, who would gift such a precious thing?

If he knew a Weapon Saint or Blacksmith Grandmaster, that would mean that the Supreme Glazed True Silver would be the most valuable thing in Di Jiu’s possession.

If they did not want to show respect for the Xian Family’s etiquette, many people would have already come over to Di Jiu’s side to get to know him, as this meant that the Supreme Glazed True Silver could become the best armor.

In fact, there was something else that Di Jiu was unaware of. In addition to receiving gifts, the Xian Family had a top-notch Blacksmith Grandmaster who could refine half-supreme-grade divine weapons. In the event of an outbreak, they could refine a supreme-grade divine weapon. Top-notch Blacksmith Grandmasters were few and far between. When everyone obtained Supreme Glazed True Silver, some people would choose to stay there and wait for the Xian Family to refine it for them.

The success rate of refining a supreme-grade divine weapon was extremely low, and the refining speed was very slow as well. Thus, the Blacksmith Grandmaster of the Xian Family had yet to become a Weapon Saint.

Even if the Xian Family’s Blacksmith Grandmaster managed to become a Weapon Saint, Di Jiu would still be a target many people would want to associate with. First of all, the Xian Family’s Blacksmith Grandmaster would not help so many people refine various kinds of Supreme Glazed True Silver Armor. Second, the blacksmithing price set by the Xian Family was extremely high.

Most importantly, Di Jiu’s cultivation level was low. There was naturally no psychological barrier when it came to becoming friends with a cultivator with a low cultivation level.

“These are your jade talismans.” After the female servant put away Di Jiu’s gift, she gave him two jade talismans in a respectful, polite manner.

“Thank you for your gift, Big Brother.” Xian Wuchan, who had walked over to Di Jiu, bowed very politely.

However, her voice sounded like a broken gong. She sounded nothing like a young lady.

When Di Jiu was about to gesture with his hand, a jade pendant effusing a faint fragrance fell into his hand. At the same time, Xian Wuchan’s voice said, “This jade pendant has been with me for many years. I’ll give it to you, Big Brother.”

Xiao Lie, who had wanted to thank him with a bow, immediately grew solemn.

Di Jiu subconsciously broke out in a cold tremble. He really did not want to annoy Xiao Lie because of this jade pendant that had been with Xian Wuchan for many years.

Judging by Xian Wuchan’s actions, there would be a follow-up. Di Jiu shook his head in distress. He did not know whether this came from Xian Wuchan or Xian Wuxun. Anyway, he could not throw it back to Xian Wuchan, could he? That would be too shocking.

By the time the gift-giving process was finally over, the Xian Family had made a fortune. Di Jiu thought that they were going to talk about the mystic area next. What he had not expected was that the Xian Family would then start a Dao Trade Meeting.

Many cultivators who had come were wealthy, and the things they traded out were all valuable. At that moment, the Xian Family once again took out some jade talismans to have a trade. The cultivators who had not obtained a jade talisman had to trade for a jade talisman with all their might. Just as Di Jiu had expected, the value of the jade talismans traded now was much higher than the value of the jade talismans during the gift-giving process. As a result, everyone sighed. The Xian Family really did know how to do business and was particularly annoying as a result.

The Dao Trade Meeting had been going on for almost a day, but Di Jiu had yet to make a trade. He was not interested in anything at the Dao Trade Meeting. Several cultivators mentioned directly and indirectly that they wanted to trade for a flying divine weapon. However, Di Jiu pretended not to hear them. As a Primordial Dao Alchemy Saint and a Weapon Saint, only a few things could pique his interest.

Once the Dao Trade Meeting ended, Xian Wuxun stepped forward and said, “Dear friends, the natural restriction array of the Xian Ocean has now loosened. Daoists with jade talismans, please follow me there…”

Except for a few cultivators who had not obtained jade talismans, most people stood up and set out to follow Xian Wuxun to the mystic area.

Since the Dao Trade Meeting had ended, everyone was free to move around. Many cultivators came over to exchange communication pearls with Di Jiu, who refused nobody. Anyway, he would help others refine some armor when he had time.

“Brother Di, the Eldest Elder has invited you over.” When Di Jiu was about to be squeezed into the middle by all the cultivators who wanted to exchange communication pearls, Xian Cang came over.

Surprised, Di Jiu looked at Xian Cang. “Daoist Xian, I’m about to go to the mystic area. Why don’t I go over after I come back?”

He said that simply because Di Jiu felt that Xian Cang was a good person. If any other person from the Xian Family had invited him, he would have rejected the invitation without hesitation.

He knew very well why the Xian Family had called him over, but he had no time to head over now.

Xian Cang answered with an awkward smile, “Daoist, rest assured. This will not delay your time in the mystic area. It’s just a cup of tea and a few words. That hidden restriction array will take some time to open, and you will only wait if you go now.”

In Xian Cang’s opinion, since Di Jiu’s cultivation level was low, he could not help much with breaking the array.

“Alright.” Di Jiu, who did not want to put Xian Cang in a difficult position, accepted his invitation.

Xian Cang looked at Qu Fang, who was next to Di Jiu. After hesitating for a while, he did not say that he wanted Qu Fang to stay behind. In fact, even if he said that, Di Jiu would not let Qu Fang stay behind.

Xing Xi was a terrifying woman, and Di Jiu did not believe that the Xian Family could handle her. If he was not by Qu Fang’s side, he was afraid that the Qu Family would be killed by Xing Xi in a moment. As for the Xian Family, he was sure that they would not stand up to avenge Qu Fang.

Xian Cang led Di Jiu and Qu Fang to a delicate wooden house in the backyard of his home and said, “Daoist Di, please go in. Daoist Qu and I will wait for you here.”

Di Jiu replied with a smile, “Qu Fang, come in with me. Anyway, I’ll come out after having a few words.”

Xian Cang froze, not knowing how to answer Di Jiu for a moment. The Xian Family’s Eldest Elder was asking to meet him. How could Di Jiu bring in an unrelated person?

A laugh came from the wooden house. “Come in together.”

When Di Jiu heard that laughter, he knew in his heart that the Eldest Elder should be the most powerful person in the Xian Family who was above the Dao Integration Realm.

Naturally, Di Jiu did not hesitate to bring Qu Fang into the wooden house with him.

Sitting in the wooden house was a middle-aged man who did not seem very old. He had a pale complexion, a short beard, and black hair that was not very long.

His Dao runes were not on display, but in Di Jiu’s opinion, his cultivation level surpassed the Dao Integration Realm.

“Please have a seat…” That middle-aged man stopped halfway, as Di Jiu had sat down while he was speaking.

Frankly speaking, it had been many years since he had seen a cultivator who had dared sit down casually.

When Qu Fang saw Di Jiu sit down, he naturally sat down without hesitation.

“Not bad. You should know who I am, right? I am the Eldest Elder of the Xian Family, Xian Bainan.” Xian Bainan looked at Di Jiu with a smile and did not suppress the surrounding space with his cultivation aura.

Di Jiu sighed. Why did people with a higher cultivation level have to view the world in such a condescending way?

“May I know why Elder Xian asked me to come over?” Di Jiu did not bother talking too much and got straight to the point. He had obtained two jade talismans to enter the mystic area, which had been exchanged for his flying divine weapon.

“You gifted Wuchan a half-supreme-grade flying divine weapon. I also heard that you still have a supreme-grade flying divine weapon. Do you know a Blacksmith Grandmaster? Or are you one yourself?” When Xian Bainan saw that Di Jiu was unwilling to waste time there, he spoke directly.

A Blacksmith Grandmaster had a chance to refine a supreme-grade divine weapon, but this chance was extremely low.

While he said that, his Spiritual Force started to sense the fluctuation in Di Jiu’s surrounding aura and Dao runes. He believed that even if Di Jiu had hidden his cultivation level, he would have no way to cover his traces.

“You’re wrong. I don’t know any Blacksmith Grandmaster and I’m not one either. I’m a Weapon Saint,” Di Jiu said without any worries.
