Chapter 792: Molten Fire Dao (II)
Li Zhouwei had already read the letter earlier and now spoke in a low voice, "Indeed, the Radiant Sky Stone was obtained by Yu Fuzi in Dongning Palace. The spiritual energy in Xu State is chaotic and difficult to predict, making it hard even for Purple Mansion Realm cultivators and Maha to manipulate. It might actually be safer because of that."
Li Ximing nodded and saw golden light flickering in Zhouwei’s eyes as he continued, "With a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator stationed at Changxiao Gate, we cannot recklessly offend them. We might fall into a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator's scheme. We can only rely on another Purple Mansion Realm cultivator to secretly plot from within.
"Currently, Changxiao Gate and Hengzhu Dao Gate are locked in endless conflict. Their hatred runs deep. We could exploit this. Whether by allying with Hengzhu Dao Gate or trading with them, we must find an opportunity to obtain the treasure."
Li Ximing listened for a while and nodded. Zhouwei stood tall and said, "No matter what, we must first investigate Yu Fuzi, find out his cultivation and what treasures he possesses, as well as his temperament and preferences. As long as he is not hiding within his sect without stepping out, there will be an opportunity. The only problem is that our senior members are stationed guarding the northern borders and cannot act freely. Future movements will be hard to coordinate..."
After Zhouwei finished analyzing the situation, Li Ximing stroked his beard and nodded, dispatching people to investigate. Then he smiled at the younger man and said gently, "I've encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation recently and just emerged from seclusion. I thought about refining some pills, partly to enhance our cultivation, and partly to clear my thoughts. A change of pace might bring about a breakthrough."
Li Zhouwei asked, "Uncle, you mean..."
"I wonder if there are any Bright Yang-type demons in the Eastern Sea. We could capture one and use it in alchemy for supplementation..." said Li Ximing.
Li Zhouwei was slightly surprised and replied, "Such creatures are rare in the Eastern Sea, but I will investigate immediately. There may have been no news of them in recent years."
He gave Li Ximing a careful look, sensing that his uncle was somewhat different today. But an unaware Li Ximing simply nodded in agreement.
