Chapter 95: Chapter 94: Is this the jade that needs to be appraised?

After discussing some details of the Netherkin’s conspiracy with Miss Kirin, Luo Wusheng finally saw her off.

By the time the conversation ended, it was already late afternoon.

Because they were all serious individuals, they had been discussing important matters the entire time, without touching on any other topics.

As Luo Wusheng watched the other person teleport away, he absentmindedly rubbed his chin while looking at the empty room.

One had to admit, the ability to casually teleport yourself without any trouble was really cool.

And this method of appearing and disappearing was much more advanced than stealth. If he could also teleport, going to the Red Blossom Pavilion would be really simple, he can arrive at Yao Ji room with nothing but a thought, and almost no one would be able to detect his whereabouts.

It was marvelous.

Unfortunately, although he, as the Demon Sect’s Holy Saint, possessed exceptional talent, he had not broken through to the Nascent Soul realm during this one year in the original story.

When the original Luo Wushend died at the Demon Purging War, he was still at the peak of the Golden Core stage.

It was because of this reason that he rarely focused on cultivation in his daily life and chose to sleep comfortably at night.

Cultivation was something he would have plenty of time for after surviving the Demon Purging War.

“But today, I do feel a bit inclined to cultivate…”

I really want to advance to the Nascent Soul stage.

With this thought in mind, he decided to follow his heart and sent a message to Lu Yuliu, but received no reply. He promptly returned to his room.

Rarely feeling so inspired and with nothing else to do today, he could indeed devote himself to cultivation.

……

“Senior Brother has returned to his room? And he has started cultivating?”

Bai Xiaoyao, who had been secretly observing the movements in the side hall, had a look of confusion on her face.

It had been a long time since she last saw her Senior Brother cultivate. Previously, whenever she went to disturb him in the [Netherworld Domain] during the [Three Thousand Demon Domain], he was indeed cultivating all the time, but for some reason, after giving her the Blood Spirit Jade, he had stopped doing that..

But now,she was witnessing her Senior Brother cultivate for the first time after arriving at the Royal City.

It felt like an era had passed.

’Perhaps it’s because Senior Brother has been extremely busy since coming to the Royal City, having to guard against the conspiracies of the mastermind who pulled the string from the shadow, which has taken his focus away from cultivation— Starting to cultivate now might mean that Senior Brother has made significant progress in the matters he needs to accomplish in the Royal City? Or perhaps the identity of the hidden figure has begun to surface?)

In any case, this should be a good thing.

With this thought in mind, Bai Xiaoyao suddenly sensed another presence.

“Is it him?”

Her eyes flickered, pondering something.

After confirming once again through her spiritual awareness that her Senior Brother was indeed diligently cultivating, and even showing signs of entering a meditative state in such a short time, Bai Xiaoyao cautiously pushed open her own room door.

Seeing that there was still no movement from her Senior Brother’s room, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly transformed into cascading white shadows, heading in a different direction.

……

Gao Shi felt that nothing had been going well for him lately.

As one of the most talented disciples of the current generation Heavenly Divination Tower disciple, he felt that he hadn’t received the treatment befitting of his status.

Well, it was probably because his style really didn’t match the Heavenly Divination Tower.

But recently, things have been a bit excessive.

His own master, who was always lost in her thoughts, had directly abandoned him halfway to the Royal City confiscating all his belongings, leaving him destitute and on the verge of sleeping on the streets.

After finally encountering the seemingly reliable Daoist friend named Long Dahai on the persuasion of the latter, he thought that his luck was about to turn around. He had hugged the thigh of the Demon Sect’s Holy Saint, a super powerful ally…

But he never expected that this Daoist friend with such a simple and honest name like Long Dahai would actually deceive him!

That Lord Luo didn’t just fail to value him, he treated him like a venomous snake and wished for him to leave as soon as possible.

How could this happen? Gao Shi is not here to cause trouble!

Gao Shi sighed.

Fortunately, the Demon Sect’s Holy Saint wasn’t a devil himself and ultimately took in this helpless diviner. He arranged for Gao Shi to help out casually in the Demon Artifact Pavilion, giving him treatment similar to that of Long Dahai and the others.

With his solid foundation at the Foundation Establishment stage, he had been busy all day until now, waiting for the shift change.

“If only I had asked Senior Brother for help in divination every day when we were still in the Calculation Province. Maybe there would have been a chance to avoid troubles— But I couldn’t do that. After all, it was the Tower Master herself who took action…”

He didn’t know what the Tower Master was really planning. Clearly, there was still a long time before the competition for the Human Immortal List began— Well, it would be better not to investigate too deeply.

Suddenly, Gao Shi’s body trembled.

The trembling didn’t stop, but instead became even more intense.

In front of him appeared a young girl.

Dressed in white clothing, she was extraordinarily beautiful, her eyes half-closed as she looked at him.

The Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect!

Gao Shi’s heart skipped a beat, and memories of a certain smiling face from the Demon Sect’s Holy Saint yesterday flashed through his mind.

His face turned pale for no apparent reason, but he forced himself to remain calm and respectfully bowed to her.

“Sister Bai.”

He clearly didn’t want to say more, and he wished he could run away immediately.

But Bai Xiaoyao wasn’t so easily deterred.

“Yesterday, when I saw Fellow Daoist Gao’s a member of the Heavenly Divination Tower and his extraordinary divination skills, I wanted to give it a try. But I didn’t expect things to turn out like that…”

The woman’s voice paused, and then she smiled, “Today, coincidentally, I meet Fellow Daoist again. Why not divine a jade stone for me?”

She still felt that something was off with her Senior Brother’s actions yesterday.

Especially the perfectly timed usage of that mind reading eyeball, which made her, already quite sensitive, suspicious.

After much thought, she still wanted to test it out.

Gao Shi on the other side swallowed hard.

As expected, here it comes.

Thinking of what the Demon Sect’s Holy Saint said to him before leaving yesterday, he quickly scanned the surroundings with his spiritual awareness.

’Huff… The other two women aren’t here, and there’s no one else nearby. According to Lord Luo’s words, I can divine this particular situation…)

His nervousness subsided a little.

Gao Shi remembered the strict boundaries set by Luo Wusheng, vowing not to appraise jade in the presence of others, especially when multiple women were present, based on the threat to his life that Luo Wusheng had issued at the time.

Although he didn’t understand why the Demon Sect’s Holy Saint would do such a thing, and he had no clue why his own life was at stake in such a situation, he was not foolish enough to treat it as a joke. After all, at that time, Luo Wusheng’s murderous intent had almost overflowed.

Fortunately, the current situation was safe.

With this in mind, he felt less anxious, straightened his posture slightly, and nodded.

“Naturally, this can be done. After all, I have received quite a few ’considerations’ from Lord Luo.”

Receiving a positive response, Bai Xiaoyao smiled slightly and raised her small hand, preparing to take off the Star-Moon Jade ornament she wore in her hair.

The jade stone she wanted to appraise was the only one she had.

However, during the process of taking it off, her movements paused slightly, and then she looked towards the direction of Luo Wusheng’s room.

In that brief moment, she felt an eerie fluctuation coming from that direction, giving her an inexplicable sense of unease.

’What is Senior Brother cultivating? Why does it give me this feeling?)

But when she wanted to investigate further, the strange fluctuation disappeared in an instant, as if it was just her imagination.

She glanced at Gao Shi, who seemed to have no reaction at all, and a hint of doubt arose in Bai Xiaoyao’s mind.

However, she had unknowingly taken off the Star-Moon Jade ornament from her head.

Gao Shi, wanting to leave this troublesome place as soon as possible, immediately spoke up.

“Is this the jade that Sister Bai wants me to appraise?”
