Chapter 106
Chapter 106: Primordial Ruins
Fang He An tapped Li Wan Zhi on the head, saying: “Watch your mouth!”
Li Wan Zhi’s eyes rolled as he laughed and changed his tune: “Right, right, third senior uncle is going to demand justice. I just don’t know what he can get back.”
Ye Wan Wan thought it over, asking: “Did third senior uncle recognize what that Jade Slip is?”
Li Wan Zhi propped his chin and said: “I think he did, but he won’t say.”
Fang He An, who knew Xun Yin best, said: “He must not want us to take risks.”
Bai Jian nodded, saying: “Mm.”
The four of them traded looks: they wanted to go even more.
Shen Nan Zhou said: “That place should involve the Ancient Immortal Ruins.”
“What is that?”
With all four looking at him, Shen Nan Zhou answered calmly: “Primordial Ruins.”
As he spoke, he kept staring at Ye Wan Wan. As expected, Ye Wan Wan’s pupils shrank and her face changed.
Fang He An glanced between the two of them, asking: “Junior sister, have you been there?”
Ye Wan Wan answered in a hoarse voice: “Not exactly.”
[At least not in this life.]
“That place is not good. It is much more dangerous than the Illusory Dream Secret Realm. The lowest level to enter should be Nascent Soul,” she paused, then corrected herself, saying: “No, not Nascent Soul. Even experts at Divine Transformation don’t dare to step in lightly.”
Shen Nan Zhou followed up, saying: “Yeah. People say the secret of Ascension is hidden there. It is also the place where the most Ascendants fell. It’s not something we should touch.”
Hearing this, the others finally understood. They relaxed and said: “Then forget it. This isn’t something our realm should worry about. Let third senior uncle and the others handle it.”
But Ye Wan Wan still frowned. The unease in her heart would not go away.
She stared at Shen Nan Zhou, saying: “Fifth senior brother, can we talk in private?”
Ye Wan Wan pulled Shen Nan Zhou away. Li Wan Zhi started to follow, but after two steps Fang He An grabbed him by the collar and yanked him back, saying: “What are you doing?”
“Following to take a look.”
Fang He An was at a loss for words, saying: “Junior sister took junior brother out to talk on purpose. It must be something we shouldn’t hear. Why would you try to eavesdrop?”
“What could the two of them say that we can’t hear?” Li Wan Zhi asked, puzzled.
“That would be…” The words came to Fang He An’s lips, then he also had nothing to say. He froze and said: “Yeah, what could they say that we can’t hear.”
The two were about to follow when Bai Jian spoke in a small, wronged voice, saying: “I’m hungry.”
At once, Fang He An turned around and said: “Senior sister, I’ll take you to eat.”
He finished speaking and did not forget to drag Li Wan Zhi along.
Ye Wan Wan brought Shen Nan Zhou to another room. After setting a Sound Sealing Barrier, she asked: “Is the fall of the Heavenly One Sect’s experts related to the Primordial Ruins?”
Shen Nan Zhou sighed softly and said: “My friend says: why are you so smart.”
Ye Wan Wan’s voice tightened, asking: “Who had an accident?”
“Grand senior uncle.”
Gu Cang Lan.
Ye Wan Wan stood there for a long time without moving. Her face turned pale as she said: “Then the Jade Slip I brought back…”
Seeing her start to overthink, Shen Nan Zhou frowned and lowered his voice, saying: “It has nothing to do with you. News about the Primordial Ruins will break later. Not only the Heavenly One Sect. Many sects will hear of it. For the sake of Ascension, the ancestors of all sects will set out. But none of those who went came back. Grand senior uncle has already reached that realm. If he wants a breakthrough, he can only look for a chance in the Primordial Ruins. It is not your fault.”
He finished and, with a complicated look, added: “And this time, the news came early.”
“How early?” Ye Wan Wan calmed herself fast and asked.
“Ten years.”
Shen Nan Zhou said: “The exact time may change, but I guess that since this Jade Slip appeared early, the Primordial Ruins may also appear early.”
They looked at each other. So, do they still have a chance to change things?
Shen Nan Zhou said: “I’ll try to find more news about the Primordial Ruins. Also, we can’t lose this Grand Sect Tournament. In the last life…”
His voice dropped as he said: “The Heavenly One Sect didn’t join.”
Ye Wan Wan’s eyes shone as she said: “I know. This time, we won’t lose.”
Shen Nan Zhou smiled and said: “Yes. Senior sister won’t lose.”
After Shen Nan Zhou left, Ye Wan Wan sat for a long time. She listed the times one by one. If she guessed right, the Primordial Ruins appeared only after senior sister had her accident.
Now they are early, which means the timeline is already messed up.
“We still have time.”
Ye Wan Wan thought of that Peace Talisman.
The girl narrowed her eyes. That brat…
Which one?
Thinking of this, Ye Wan Wan entered the Spirit Market. She said nothing, just put a Peace Talisman on her stall and waited.
A few breaths later: “Ding ding ding, congratulations, stall keeper. The buyer ‘No Shortage of Money’ purchased your Peace Talisman. Seventy thousand spirit stones have been credited.”
Ye Wan Wan said: “…”
No Shortage of Money said: “…”
The other side jumped in anger, saying: “Wow, little stall keeper, you’re robbing me. Why did the price shoot up ten times? Wasn’t it ten thousand? How did it become one hundred thousand!”
Ye Wan Wan’s fingers curled slightly. The two voices were totally different.
But the Spirit Market can mask voices, so it wasn’t strange if this wasn’t his real voice.
Keeping a straight face, Ye Wan Wan said: “Supply can’t meet demand, so the price went up.”
No Shortage of Money said: “What a greedy merchant.”
Ye Wan Wan spoke lazily, saying: “You don’t have to buy this one. You can switch to something else. I also have other Attack Talismans that are cheap and useful.”
“No need. I want this one,” No Shortage of Money said boldly. “It works.”
Ye Wan Wan said: “Do you need peace that badly?”
“Sigh, little stall keeper, you don’t know how dangerous the world is. You don’t know how many sneak attacks there are out there. Without some protection and something to keep me safe, who would enjoy all the gold and silver I earned?”
“Safety comes first!”
The buyer sounded quite moved.
Ye Wan Wan said coolly: “Safety first, but life-saving second. I also have some Healing Talismans. I think there is a market for those too.”
The other side was tempted and asked: “Healing? What kind of injuries?”
Ye Wan Wan said: “External and internal.”
No Shortage of Money asked: “Do you have them right now?”
Ye Wan Wan smiled and said: “If you want them, then I have them.”
No Shortage of Money said: “Don’t smile like that. It gives me chills.”
Ye Wan Wan had a rough guess. Even if it wasn’t him, it had to be tied to him. The girl said lightly: “I’m busy these days and haven’t prepared the Healing Talismans. I’ll tell you when I finish the research.”
No Shortage of Money’s eyes spun as he said: “Oh? Are you also in Zhou Town?”
“Also?”
Ye Wan Wan’s eyes flashed as she said: “You’re here too?”
But he dodged the question and laughed, saying: “Little stall keeper, the big event in the Cultivation World right now is only this one. If you’re busy, you must be busy with it. The Grand Sect Tournament. It’s a grand event. It will be very exciting.”
“Little stall keeper, aren’t you short on spirit stones? Why not place a couple of bets? You might make some extra money.”
Ye Wan Wan raised a brow and said: “I don’t know where to bet.”
No Shortage of Money said: “You… you come to the Spirit Market and don’t play?”
“I don’t play.”
No Shortage of Money said: “I can tell. There’s a casino right next door to you, and you didn’t even notice.”
Ye Wan Wan tilted her head. She saw that, beside her stall, a casino had appeared at some point.
“When did that show up?”
“This Nine Provinces Casino only opens for the Grand Sect Tournament. It runs for six months total. It showed up a month ago. You just didn’t notice.”
No Shortage of Money got excited again and asked: “Who will you bet on? Want inside info?”
Ye Wan Wan said: “Heavenly One Sect.”
No Shortage of Money went quiet for a long time, then asked: “Is that even a sect?”
Ye Wan Wan said: “…”
[She wanted to curse.]

Immortal Way? Heavenly Way? Hah, I cultivate the Path of Killing
In her previous life, Ye Wan Wan died at the hands of the very people who should have protected her: her master and her six senior brothers. Seven swords pierced her heart, and her body was left in...
