Wu Shattered Star River

#729 - Chapter 729: No Return

Jiang Han didn't want to spend this divine crystal, because from Sun Feifei's tone, he had actually guessed some things.

If it were just a simple theft, and only Commander Wang was behind it, then smoothing things over wouldn't be too difficult.

After all, Commander Wang was only at the eighth level of the Seeker Realm. Sun Feifei had the ability to meet with Marquis Yan Bei. Finding some people to greet Commander Wang and pardon Wu Yao'er and Fang Mengyao wouldn't be difficult.

Since even Ruyi Pavilion felt it was difficult and asked for a price of one hundred billion divine crystals, then it definitely wasn't just Commander Wang behind it; it was undoubtedly Lord Wu He.

Jiang Han couldn't take out one hundred billion. Even if he could, it would take at least several years.

So, asking Ruyi Pavilion to help rescue the two was a dead end.

Then there was only one last path left.

Rescuing the prisoners by force!

Jiang Han pondered for a moment and asked, "Can I trust your Ruyi Pavilion? For example, if I wanted to ask you to investigate some things, even if the business isn't successful, can you help me keep it a secret? I don't want anyone to know about this."

"Of course!"

Sun Feifei nodded without any hesitation and said, "You don't need to question Ruyi Pavilion's reputation."

"In fact… I didn't think the previous matter was a rip-off. It's just that you felt it was. One million to take you to see Marquis Yan Bei, that price was already very worthwhile."

Jiang Han nodded slightly and said, "I need to find out the route my two friends are taking to the mines, as well as the overall combat power of the army escorting them."

Rescuing them from the prison within the city was too difficult. Even if they could snatch the people out, they wouldn't be able to escape.

So, the safest way was to snatch them on the way to the mines. After snatching them, they would immediately flee far away and never come to Bei殇 City again.

A glint flashed in Sun Feifei's eyes, and he looked at Jiang Han and Xuan Yuanqing in surprise, saying in a deep voice, "You want to rescue the prisoners? You don't want your lives!"

Jiang Han sighed and said, "We have no other choice. Can your Ruyi Pavilion gather intelligence? Do you dare to participate in this matter?"

"What a joke!"

Sun Feifei said proudly, "It's not Ruyi Pavilion rescuing the prisoners, but… it's not that I look down on you, but with your strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to rescue them."

"You don't have to worry about that!"

Jiang Han said in a deep voice, "Are you taking this business or not? I only need the accurate route and the situation of the escorting personnel. Name your price."

Sun Feifei pondered for a moment, then said, "Fifty million, and I'll give you accurate information. But we have one request: we need to erase your memories of trading with us."

Jiang Han and Xuan Yuanqing exchanged glances and understood. Erasing the memory of the transaction meant that even if they were captured alive, it wouldn't have any impact on Ruyi Pavilion.

Jiang Han asked, "Only erase the memory of the transaction? It won't cause any damage to our souls, right?"

"Of course!"

Sun Feifei nodded and said, "Don't worry, we have our ways. This kind of situation happens often. We can't possibly harm our customers."

Jiang Han and Xuan Yuanqing understood. When many people sought confidential information from Ruyi Pavilion, Ruyi Pavilion would erase the memory of the transaction to avoid leaving evidence and implicating Ruyi Pavilion.

"Deal!"

Jiang Han didn't hesitate any longer and asked, "When will there be news?"

Sun Feifei thought for a moment and said, "They will be escorted to the mines with a batch of prisoners in three days. Accurate news can be obtained the day after tomorrow. You pay a deposit of ten million, and I will arrange for someone to notify you when there is news."

"Alright!"

Jiang Han said to Xuan Yuanqing, took out all the Celestial Dust Crystals, and asked Sun Feifei to find someone to calculate the price.

Anyway, he had to pay the remaining forty million in two days, so he simply sold all the Celestial Dust Crystals.

Seeing the Celestial Dust Crystals all over the ground, Jiang Han felt a little heartache. He had worked hard for more than two months to get sixty million divine crystals.

He would have soon been able to gather one hundred million divine crystals to meet Marquis Yan Bei, but now he could only use them to buy information.

Looking at the Celestial Dust Crystals all over the ground, Sun Feifei glanced at Jiang Han in surprise and said, "You've gained a lot in Yama Mountain these three months. That place is so dangerous. Not only did you survive, but you also managed to snatch so many Celestial Dust Crystals. Very impressive!"

Xuan Yuanqing said somewhat shamefully, "It has nothing to do with me. Jiang Han snatched them all alone."

Sun Feifei glanced at Jiang Han in surprise again. He didn't waste any words and arranged for someone to come in to appraise the Celestial Dust Crystals and calculate the price.

After calculating all the Celestial Dust Crystals, it was about the same as Jiang Han expected, exceeding sixty million divine crystals. Jiang Han paid ten million and then left with Xuan Yuanqing.

The two returned to the inn. Because they had no information, they didn't discuss any plans and honestly cultivated in seclusion, waiting for news.

One day later, Xuan Yuanqing's body trembled in seclusion, and then his aura continued to rise.

Jiang Han was alarmed, his eyes suddenly opened, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.

At such a critical moment, Xuan Yuanqing actually broke through to Earth Immortal?

Could it be that facing enormous pressure, Xuan Yuanqing's state of mind had changed and he had suddenly had an epiphany!

Earth Immortal was very difficult to break through. It was a threshold.

Jiang Han had reached the peak of the Void Realm for a long time, but he didn't feel any sign of breaking through to Earth Immortal.

Xuan Yuanqing's Dao was more complicated. He originally thought that breaking through to Earth Immortal would also be very difficult, but he didn't expect to break through at this critical moment.

Jiang Han waited excitedly. After a moment, Xuan Yuanqing opened his eyes, and Jiang Han quickly asked, "Did you break through?"

"Yes!"

Xuan Yuanqing smiled bitterly and then said, "I'll first buy some time to stabilize my realm!"

"Okay!"

Jiang Han nodded, greatly encouraged. Xuan Yuanqing's breakthrough to Earth Immortal would definitely greatly increase his combat power.

Not to say that he could kill Divine Realm experts, but at least he could sweep through the Earth Immortal Realm, and he could withstand Divine Realm experts for a while, which was a great help to him.

Jiang Han calmed down and continued to cultivate in seclusion.

A day passed again, and Jiang Han heard a knock on the door outside. He opened the door.

A martial artist came outside and said only one sentence: "My shopkeeper invites you."

Jiang Han understood, turned to look at Xuan Yuanqing, and seeing that he was still in seclusion stabilizing his realm, he walked out alone and went to Ruyi Pavilion.

Jiang Han was taken to a secret room, where Sun Feifei was already waiting.

He activated the divine formation, thought for a moment, and said, "I'll give you a suggestion: don't buy this information. It's best to give up this operation!"

"Hmm?"

Jiang Han raised an eyebrow. From Sun Feifei's tone, he heard a lot of implied meaning.

Sun Feifei didn't want him to buy it, and wanted him to give up the operation, which meant that Sun Feifei was extremely pessimistic about their success, and the possibility of them dying to rescue the prisoners was extremely high.

Jiang Han was silent for a moment, looked at Sun Feifei with firm eyes, and said, "I have no choice. Those two are my friends. I must save them!"

Sun Feifei frowned and asked, "Is one of them your wife? Or are both of them?"

"Neither!"

Jiang Han shook his head and said, "They are friends, life-and-death friends! If I encounter trouble, they will also risk their lives to rescue me!"

Jiang Han didn't waste any more words, took out fifty million divine crystals, and said, "Give me the information!"

Sun Feifei put away the divine crystals, threw out a piece of information, and thought for a moment, saying, "There is a problem with this escort of prisoners. I think it's a trap! Deliberately attracting you to rescue the prisoners. If you go… chances are, you'll never return."
