Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo'
Chapter 1385 - 632: Hundred Demon Master_4
Cui Tiq indeed is a bit forgetful, he's been busy lately, pretending to be the Rong Ku God is not easy, and he has to occasionally keep an eye on De Song Cliff.
"I remember this matter, but back then you told me you wanted to seek funding from He Jiaqing."
"He Jiaqing is unwilling to cooperate with me, I can only go to Outside Provinces to find help, I've always considered you my friend, I never had thoughts of betraying you."
"Mr. Du, are you in a lot of pain?" Cui Tiq's voice changed, his tone became much deeper.
"I am in a lot of pain." Du Wenming nodded continuously, he was somewhat scared now, in his impression, Cui Tiq was a very witty person, but at this moment, Cui Tiq's tone was very serious.
"Mr. Du, can you tell me, who did you seek help from in Outside Provinces?"
"I sought help from the Birch Tree Hermit Society, I told you I'm a senior member of the Hermit Society."
"But as far as I know, under Li Qi's leadership, the Birch Tree Hermit Society has mostly disappeared from Huan Country."
Du Wenming shook his head: "The Hermit Society is very powerful, the Dark Star Bureau didn't cause them much damage."
"Then when you were wanted, why didn't you turn to the Hermit Society, but fled to Puluo State?"
"Because I feel Snowflake Beach is more reliable."
"Now why don't you seek Snowflake Beach, is Snowflake Beach unreliable now?"
"I have my difficulties." Du Wenming couldn't give a reasonable explanation, he found it very difficult to deceive Cui Tiq.
Cui Tiq was silent for a long time, the image in the mirror smiled again: "Mr. Du, I detect the smell of lies in your words,
in Outside Provinces there are many Dark Energy User organizations, you might have dealings with many organizations, but there's one organization you best not contact,
their actions are equivalent to demons on earth, I told you this organization's name, you wouldn't have forgotten, right?"
Du Wenming took a deep breath: "I remember, rest assured, I haven't contacted them."
"I don't need to be assured, because I don't need to worry in the first place, this is your own matter,
I'll give you five days, you must return to Puluo State within five days, I want to see your research results on the Boundary,
in these five days you won't suffer anymore pain, but after five days if I don't see you, you'll lose your life."
"Okay."
Cui Tiq's tone reverted to a jesting one: "Mr. Du, eat my face, it's a good medicine to remove pain."
The face he's referring to is the pus and blood on the mirror.
Du Wenming didn't hesitate at all, licked the pus and blood clean off the mirror, before the pus and blood were completely consumed, Cui Tiq didn't forget to remind: "Come to Puluo State soon, I'm waiting for you."
Go to Puluo State?
That's still early!
Du Wenming doesn't want to live under Cui Tiq's control for a lifetime.
First find He Jiaqing, then find the Hundred Demons Workshop, Du Wenming's only goal was, he needs money, he needs to purchase expensive equipment.
He has the ability to enter and exit wormholes, but this ability relies more on luck, when lucky, he can find the exit of a wormhole, when unlucky, he may be trapped in a wormhole for a long time.
He has very in-depth research on wormholes, coupled with his personal experiences inside them, he believes he can manufacture a device to lock the exit in a short time.
With the device, he can cross the Boundary at any time, and can also take refuge in wormholes at any time.
He can also continuously improve his cultivation level through the Worms in the wormholes, until he resolves Cui Tiq's affliction.
As for the organization Cui Tiq mentioned, he knew full well.
He's right, the actions of the Hundred Demons Workshop are comparable to demons on earth.
But there's one thing Cui Tiq isn't aware of, Du Wenming himself is a member of the Hundred Demons Workshop.
He has deep conflicts with the Hundred Demons Workshop, in his downfall, he didn't dare to seek Pei Yurong, he knows the Hundred Demons Workshop can do anything.
But now Du Wenming has the means to cross the Boundary, which means he has a bargaining chip, he believes he can get deserved compensation from the Hundred Demons Workshop.
The pus and blood were consumed, the strange itch on his body disappeared, the rash gradually retreated, Du Wenming calmed down, carefully contemplating his plan for the next five days.
First step, tomorrow extract the Hundred Demons Workshop's secrets, and kill those key members, directly demand compensation from the Sect Leader.
Second step, immediately contact buyers, they have ready stock on hand, as long as payment is made, the equipment can be delivered the same day.
Third step, spend three days completing the assembly of the equipment, this is a portable device, much simpler than the ones designed by Yu Yaoming.
Fourth step, immediately enter the wormhole after acquiring the equipment, suppress the affliction on himself by consuming Worms, until his body is sufficient to resolve the affliction.
Fifth step, once he has enough cultivation level and the ability to cross the Boundary, he'll be able to...
What's on the ground?
Ants?
Du Wenming's thoughts were interrupted, he discovered that what's crawling on the ground weren't ants, but text, three neatly printed words.
These three words are "Grand Sale".
Could it be him...
Du Wenming didn't think much, immediately jumped out of the window, clinging to the wall from the fifty-first floor, he climbed down.
Just as he left, Boss Lu entered his room.
Scanning the room, Boss Lu noticed the mirror on the table.
The mirror had a hint of Spirit Attribute, Boss Lu stepped forward and touched it, immediately sensed danger.
This mirror had a strange smell, somewhat similar to the smell of Green Flower.
Affliction!
Boss Lu flicked his hand, the text on the flyer flew out, wrapped around Boss Lu's right hand, forcibly tore off a layer of skin from his hand.
"Shouldn't have come! Clearly checked the calendar! The calendar said not to come!" Boss Lu regretted deeply, wished he could slap himself.
...
Late at night, the Three-Headed People and Strange Monsters all took a pause, each preparing for tomorrow's assessments.
Chu Yaoxian returned to her abode, heated a basin of hot water, washed off the dust of travel, lay in bed, fell asleep.
After sleeping for a moment, she suddenly felt someone by the bed, quickly asked: "Is it Jia Qing?"
"No," Li Banfeng struck a match, lit a candle, illuminated Chu Yaoxian's face, "Does He Jiaqing always come by at this hour?"
Chu Yaoxian was terrified: "Seventh Master, what are you doing in a woman's house in the dead of night?"
Li Banfeng thought for a moment, it indeed seemed inappropriate: "How about you come sit at my place?"
"Seventh Master, what are you seeking from me?" Chu Yaoxian was very afraid, Li Qi had entered her room, sat by her bedside, without her noticing, this showed the disparity in their capabilities.
Li Banfeng asked: "Have you seen Du Wenming?"
"Who is Du Wenming?" Chu Yaoxian indeed didn't know this person.
"Dance Cultivator, from the same Taoist Sect as you, with cultivation level above yours."
Chu Yaoxian bowed her head: "A lot of people have come up on the territory these days, I don't remember..."
Li Banfeng smiled: "How about we change places to talk, perhaps you'll remember?"
Chu Yaoxian shook her head repeatedly: "Seventh Master, don't worry, I just remembered now!"
"Remembered what?"
"That day He Jiaqing was also there, he talked with the Dance Cultivator for quite a while, what they talked about, I really don't know."
PS: He Jiaqing always thought Chu Yaoxian was someone who couldn't withstand torture, actually, he underestimated Chu Yaoxian, this person doesn't need torture at all.
