Chapter 453: Chapter 429: The Golden Elixir Disciple
Translator: 549690339
The person guiding them here was Master Liu Feng, assigned by the lord of the manor.
In a green gown and with a somewhat frail body, he seemed like he would be blown away by the wind at any moment.
As his cultivation base was at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, He Song paid more attention to Liu Feng’s current appearance.
After reaching Foundation Establishment stage, cultivators could change their appearance, just like how Meng Guan had transformed from an old man into a young man after establishing his Foundation.
However, it seemed that Master Liu Feng hadn’t changed his appearance when he reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
Or, perhaps he had intentionally changed his appearance to what it was now.
With a hint of curiosity, He Song quickly grew interested in Liu Feng.
However, as the two exchanged dharma titles, He Song did not reveal his Master Cang Song title, but instead, casually gave the title of Master Ningyin.
Master Ningyin had already been killed by Mater Chi Jian.
He Song used his dharma title without a second thought.
There was no deeper meaning behind this decision.
It was based only on He Song’s thoughts.
If in the future he were to offend Master Liu Feng, using Master Ningyin’s dharma title could at least serve to confuse the other person.
Apart from that, it didn’t matter either way.
For He Song, the fewer people who knew his true dharma title, the better.
The more people who knew, the higher the risk of exposure if they knew one another.
Although it didn’t matter much if he was exposed, it was still an unpleasant feeling for others to know some of his identities.
In the guest hall.
After leading He Song there and serving him a pot of Foundation Establishment spirit tea, Master Liu Feng quickly spoke up.
“I have lived here for many years and met most Master cultivators in the State Mansion, but I’ve never met you before. Are you from somewhere else?”
Master Liu Feng couldn’t find any recollection of the dharma title He Song provided. This could mean that He Song was not a native of Green Moon State.
At least, he hadn’t been in Green Moon State for long.
Under such circumstances, Master Liu Feng had to ask first to get some understanding of He Song’s background, which would help the negotiation to proceed normally.
There were some Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivators like He Song in every Immortal State.
However, most of them knew they had no hope of reaching the Golden Core Realm, and instead, indulged themselves within the Immortal State.
Only a small portion of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivators still wandered between Immortal States, seeking opportunities to break through to the Golden Core Realm.
He Song, as an outsider of this rank, was quite a common sight in any state mansion.
Thus, although Master Liu Feng’s words carried a hint of doubt, his expression was quite confident.
It seemed as if he had already seen through He Song’s origin.
Facing Master Liu Feng’s gaze, He Song calmly lied.
“Indeed, I came from the Golden Snake Sect. I am new to this place and wish to buy some rare and unusual items from your pavilion.”
“Also, if you have detailed information on Green Moon State, please provide me with a copy.”
Coming from the Golden Snake Sect and wanting to buy rare items was a baseless claim by He Song.
However, he had indeed stayed at the Golden Snake Sect for a while and truly wanted to buy some items needed for the Golden Core Realm.
Considering He Song’s apparent cultivation base of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, he technically shouldn’t need such items.
However, it would make sense if he wanted to see some rarities or observe items used by the Golden Elixir Master, even if he knew he had no hope of reaching the Golden Core Realm.
Therefore, He Song bluntly stated his intention to buy some rare items.
If not for laying the groundwork for purchasing items required for the Golden Core Realm, why would He Song reveal his real intentions to Master Liu Feng?
Wasn’t that just asking to be exploited?
As for He Song’s request for detailed information on Green Moon State, that was his way of gathering information about the state.
With Treasure Pavilion being different from other forces, they had branches or main branches in every Immortal City, every Immortal State, and even every faction.
With such a vast scale, their information network was not to be underestimated.
He Song was convinced that the Treasure Pavilion must possess the detailed information on Green Moon State and would be willing to sell it.
After all, since He Song had just arrived here, he needed to familiarize himself with the local power figures, especially the Golden Elixir Masters in Green Moon State.
The most convenient source for this information was undoubtedly Treasure Pavilion.
And that was one of He Song’s objectives for coming here.
“So, you’re a fellow cultivator from the Golden Snake Sect. I apologize for any disrespect. Although I work at the Treasure Pavilion, I’ve heard quite a lot about the Golden Snake Sect. Ancestor Golden Snake is a renowned figure.”
“The Golden Snake Sect …”
Master Liu Feng didn’t know if He Song was telling the truth, but from his exaggerated facial expressions and words, He Song could tell that even if he had believed him, it was only to a small extent.
Claims of having heard a lot about the Golden Snake Sect or the prestigious status of Ancestor Golden Snake had nothing to do with a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator like He Song.
