Over The World, Beyond Heaven

"I just thought I'd have a little discussion with you, that's all."

Hu hu!

Ah!

As he finished speaking, Zheng-Fu smiled slyly and mischievously. He knew he might have crossed the line. But it was a habit that he could not help but do when he had the chance.

"You!"

Of course, Mie-Xiang-Qi was not really angry that she was being teased by Zheng-Fu like this. But she was an important elder of the Sacred Heavenly Star Divine Sect. Therefore, she had to keep her expression and posture calm. She could not joke with anyone in front of other people, especially men. So, she had to show an expression of dissatisfaction.

"Come on, Sister Xiang-Qi! I was only teasing you. How about this!? Let me treat you to some food as an apology!" Zheng-Fu wanted to ask Mie-Xiang-Qi something, so he pretended to invite Mie-Xiang-Qi out, claiming it was compensation because it was not convenient to talk there.

"You'll treat me to a meal? Do you see me as a child who can use food as bait!?" But Mie-Xiang-Qi could not keep up with Zheng-Fu's words. Because at that moment, her emotions were so chaotic that she could not think of anything.

Ah!

"Then what do you want me to do to stop being angry at me?" Zheng-Fu did not think that the middle-aged woman would still be able to calm herself. So, he had to play his part according to her script.

"Can you… erm... go for a walk with me outside?" Mie-Xiang-Qi replied with great embarrassment. She actually had something to ask Zheng-Fu as well. But it was not appropriate to talk there. So, she had to invite Zheng-Fu out for a walk. But because she was a woman, having to ask a man out like this made her feel very embarrassed.

"All right! So, where are we going? I don't belong here, so I don't know where we should go." Zheng-Fu immediately replied.

"Heavenly Cloud Mountain! That's a good place. It's also a famous tourist attraction of Heavenly Cloud City!" Mie-Xiang-Qi thought for a moment before answering.

"Good! Then, Sister Xiang-Qi, please lead the way!" Zheng-Fu nodded before standing up and extending his hand towards Mie-Xiang-Qi, letting her guide him.

All right!

"Master Da-Ye, Master Chuan-He, I'll have to excuse myself for a while. When I finish my business with Sister Xiang-Qi, I'll come back quickly. And during my absence, you two should use these!" Before Zheng-Fu left, he turned to the two middle-aged men and handed over two vials, each of them containing three tenth-level pills, to both of them.

Hah!

"What's this!?"

The two were puzzled when Zheng-Fu suddenly gave them the small bottles. Even though they could see what kind of bottles they were, they did not know what kind of pills were in those small bottles.

"It's something that will change both of your lives. It's up to you to choose to accept it and use it, or let it go!" Zheng-Fu did not say that inside the vials were tenth-level pills. He said, giving a hint so that the two of them continued to wonder. Because if he told the truth, it would not be fun for him.

Hah!

When Zheng-Fu refused to tell him, the curiosity of the two increased even more. So, they opened the lid of the medicine bottle before the enticing scent filled with spirit energy waves spread out from the medicine bottle.

Booooooom!!!

Ah!!!

"Is this high-level medicine!?"

"Young Master..."

But before the two of them could ask, Zheng-Fu's figure had disappeared from their sight. So they could only swallow their words back.

"What medicine did you give them? It doesn't seem like an ordinary medicine," after coming outside for a while, Mie-Xiang-Qi asked, because she could also feel the fragrance and preciousness of that medicine.

"Just three tenth-level energy booster pills each," Zheng-Fu replied with a casual expression. But in reality, he said and acted like this because he wanted to see the middle-aged woman's reaction.

"Tenth-level energy booster pills!"

"Are you saying that the medicine you gave them is rare tenth-level medicine? And you also gave each of them three pills! Are you crazy or have dementia to give them such a precious thing!"

It was exactly as Zheng-Fu had thought. When Mie-Xiang-Qi listened to Zheng-Fu until the end of his sentence, she cried out in shock.

"I don't have dementia or anything. I gave it to them because I had agreed to exchange something with them. And the items we exchanged are as valuable as those medicines." Zheng-Fu continued to express his indifference. He tried not to smile or laugh as he explained to Mie-Xiang-Qi.

"Exchange!?"

"Agreement!?"

Mie-Xiang-Qi became even more curious when she heard that. Anything that could be exchanged for a tenth-level energy booster pill must have been extremely valuable.

"Let's just say that they and I have an agreement. But if you want some, I can give it to you."

"Really!?"

The middle-aged woman exclaimed in shock. She was very glad to hear that. If she received a tenth-level energy booster medicine, maybe she could break through to the ninth level of the Deity Soul stage.

"Of course, but you must…" Zheng-Fu was about to propose conditions, but Mie-Xiang-Qi hurriedly drove up, not letting him finish.

"If you want me to do something immoral or obscene, you keep your medicine. I don't want it!"

"I don't want you to do something like that. I just want you to help me keep some things a secret until I finish my work. Then I'll immediately give you ten tenth-level pills. What do you think? This deal isn't bad at all, right?" Zheng-Fu actually wanted Mie-Xiang-Qi to help conceal the matter about the secret land and prevent anyone from interfering while he was inside. And this was something he wanted to discuss with Mie-Xiang-Qi outside.

"Keep some things a secret!?"

The middle-aged woman furrowed her brows slightly in confusion. She still did not quite understand what Zheng-Fu wanted her to do. But she believed that it was definitely not a bad thing or obscene.

"When that time comes, I'll tell you again what the matter is. But now I want to know where Heavenly Cloud Mountain is. Is it far? If it's far away, we'd better go take a walk around the city market first." Zheng-Fu still did not say what secret he wanted her to conceal. To keep her from thinking any more than this, he changed the subject and asked about the distance to Heavenly Cloud Mountain instead.

"It would take another ten of li to travel to reach it. If you want to stop by the market first, you can. After all, the atmosphere in the evening is definitely better than when the sun is hot like this!" Mie-Xiang-Qi understood that Zheng-Fu was not ready to tell her the story yet. So, she did not want to ask too much and waited for the time to come.

"Then that's good. Sister Xiang-Qi, please lead the way!" Zheng-Fu smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

"All right!"

Half an hour passed at the main market in the heart of Heavenly Cloud City...

"Come in, come in! Here is the core of the Heavenly Golden Core stage monster beast for sale. Come in and choose to see and buy. They're all genuine!"

"We have the Heavenly Golden Core stage monster beast eggs. Raise them now and they'll grow up later!"

"Advanced Primitive Level armor. There are complete sets and individual pieces!"

"Whoever wants a good weapon, please come this way. Our shop has a wide variety of weapons for you to choose from!"

"If anyone has personal health problems, our herbs can help. Guaranteed to be strong and durable until dawn!"

.

"The market of this city is bustling! And there are so many things to choose from." Zheng-Fu turned to Mie-Xiang-Qi with a smile. After he walked past many shops that sold everything, from general merchandise to weapons, armor, or even various kinds of medicine.

"It's true that there are a lot of things for sale here. But most of the items are not rare and valuable. They're goods that can be easily found everywhere. If you want to buy good things. You have to go to the Holy Paradise Chamber of Commerce. There are a lot of good items there, whether it be advanced Legendary Level weapons or even high-grade Immortal Level weapons," Mie-Xiang-Qi explained as she recommended a place that sold valuable and high-level goods in this city.

"Holy Paradise Chamber of Commerce!?"

"Hmm! I don't want to buy anything; I just want to take a walk. Moreover, those things are not necessary to me. Unless there's a Deity stage weapon for sale there." Zheng-Fu was not planning on buying anything. Therefore, he did not bother to go to the Holy Paradise Chamber of Commerce at all. He only came for a walk because he wanted to relax.

Hah!

"You really have a sense of humor. Your Heavenly Command Sect is now the number one sect. Because you have two Deity stage identities, both Former Sectmaster Li-Feng-Jun and Current Sectmaster Li-Gao. Heavenly Command Sect's power and strength have become number one. And because of this, people are flocking there to apply to be disciples."

Mie-Xiang-Qi suddenly spoke about the Heavenly Command Sect with a happy and satisfied expression on her face.

"It's normal for many people to come and apply to become disciples because of its increased fame and power. But it's often followed by enemies and spies as well. However, those matters are not related to me. This is the duty of those elders of your rank to deal with it. As for me... I should just keep traveling!" Zheng-Fu knew what Mie-Xiang-Qi meant. But to him, these things were only normal. And it was not something he had to think about or be responsible for.

"Are you still a member of Heavenly Command Sect? Why did you say that!?" Mie-Xiang-Qi was shocked by Zheng-Fu's words. She did not expect Zheng-Fu to say that. Because normally, disciples always tended to side with their sect and had a loyal heart towards it.

"Of course, I belong to the Heavenly Command Sect."
