Guo Huai put away the ring and fairy sword belonging to the head of the Sheng family and walked out of the ring in high spirits.
Ling Zhantian flew over and hugged Guo Huai excitedly, and said happily: "I thought the sect master couldn't survive just now, but I didn't expect that in just the blink of an eye, you killed the head of the Sheng family."
"Okay!"
Guo Huai said in a calm tone.
After the joy of victory, he felt an indescribable emptiness and loss in his heart. This feeling was indescribable.
"Let's go! Let's go get the reward of West Million Immortal Crystals."
Both of their previous immortal crystals were trapped in the gambling house. This was a joint venture between the three major families in Beiping Mansion, so they could also take advantage of the financial resources of both parties.
Guo Huai successfully obtained the Sheng family's Xi Million Immortal Crystals, and he also obtained 500,000 Immortal Crystals from the ring of the head of the Sheng Family, as well as two medium-grade immortal artifacts, hundreds of low-grade immortal artifacts, and various rare items. There are mountains of elixirs, materials and treasures.
It can be said that Guo Huai made a fortune again this time, but it was obtained by Guo Huai at the risk of his life. The millions of years of accumulation of the Sheng family were harvested by Guo Huai in one day.
After getting off work that night, Su Hao asked Guo Huai to come to the restaurant to celebrate. His mood today was like a roller coaster due to Guo Huai's competition, but fortunately, Guo Huai won in the end.
He also made a fortune, which made him extremely happy today.
The three of them were drinking heavily in the restaurant. When the wine was getting thicker, Su Hao suddenly put down his glass and said, "Brother Guo, I have something that I don't know whether to talk about or not?"
Guo Huai stroked his wine glass and sneered: "You have said this, if there is anything else that should be said that should be said or not, you should be the first to say anything."
"Ha~, I was worrying too much!"
Su Hao laughed to himself and said, "It's like this. Yesterday, the Zhao family of Beiping Mansion sent someone to see me and wanted to make an appointment with you."
"It's the Zhao family from the Tianhuo Forging Workshop in Hushanfang City. Do you still remember it?"
Guo Huai took a sip of the sweet and mellow fairy wine. After thinking about it, he asked, "Do you know what the Zhao family wants to do with me?"
"I'm not sure about this, but it shouldn't be a bad thing." Su Hao shook his head and said, "The Zhao family is also a first-tier family in Beiping Mansion, second only to the three top families."
Su Hao then took a breath and said: "But just a few decades ago, the backbone of the Zhao family, their old patriarch, suddenly died unexpectedly. The specific cause of death is unknown. The Zhao family has no top combat power to support them. Now the family has It’s starting to decline.”
"What do you think they mean by looking for me?"
Guo Huai asked.
Su Hao joked and said with a smile: "Maybe it's because of Brother Guo, his performance in the ring these two times was so amazing, it's not surprising that the Zhao family wants to recruit a son-in-law."
"Haha, you are talking nonsense!" Guo Huai smiled and shook his head.
"Let's do this! I'll meet with her tomorrow and see what she means!"
The next day, Zhao Lanyao, the head of the Zhao family, arrived at the appointment on time. She was seen wearing a gorgeous fairy dress, as dazzling as a blooming flower.
The moment Guo Huai saw Zhao Lanyao, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and marvel in his heart. Zhao Lanyao's appearance is very similar to Shiyun's, as if they were two fairies walking out of the same scroll.
Guo Huai had to admire the wonder of this world. Although the two looked similar at first glance, he also clearly felt that their temperaments were completely different.
The temperament of the poetry is gentle and intellectual, just like the first ray of sunshine in the morning, warm and soft.
Zhao Lanyao, on the other hand, is cold and sharp, just like the bright moon hanging high, cold and bright.
Zhao Lanyao looked at Guo Huai's surprised expression and was not surprised at all. She has long been accustomed to the stunned expressions of countless men when they see her beautiful face.
Guo Huai, the city lord of Yicheng who is famous as one of the top ten powerful people in Beiping Prefecture and has been promoted to immortal, seems to be not exempt from the common deeds. She opened her red lips lightly and said in a voice like ice jade, "Is this little girl's appearance worthy of the respect of City Lord Guo?"
Guo Huai came back to his senses and said quickly: "Seeing Patriarch Zhao, I couldn't help but think of my wife. You two are very similar, and I can't help but marvel at the wonders of this world."
Zhao Lanyao's face turned cold instantly. She felt that Guo Huai was deliberately teasing her. As the head of the Zhao family, she has a respected position. How could anyone dare to be so disrespectful to her?
Seeing that she had misunderstood him, Guo Huai quickly explained: "Clan Leader Zhao, don't get me wrong. My wife is still in the lower realm. You two are 70-80%25 similar. I don't mean anything else."
After hearing this, Zhao Lanyao's expression softened slightly. She snorted coldly and said: "City Master Guo, I hope you will be careful in your words in the future."
Guo Huai sighed secretly in his heart, the head of the Zhao family was really cold and hard to approach. He quickly changed the subject and asked, "What does Patriarch Zhao want from me?"
Zhao Lanyao took a deep breath and said with firm eyes: "Thirty years later, the Orchid Secret Realm will be opened. I would like to invite City Master Guo to explore the secret realm with me."
Guo Huai frowned, feeling unhappy. Orchid Secret Realm, this is a place where monsters are rampant and there are many treasures. He knew that entering the secret realm would not only face attacks from monsters, but also compete with others for treasures and opportunities.
With one more person around, he not only has to be distracted from taking care of her, but also takes away his own opportunities.
"Give me a reason why I should go with you." Guo Huai said calmly.
"Five million immortal crystals, this is my sincerity!" Zhao Lanyao placed a ring on the table and said.
Guo Huai shook his head: "You know that I am not short of immortal crystals. If you can't impress me with other sincerity, Patriarch Zhao should invite you back!"
Zhao Lanyao pursed her lips, a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes. She knew that Guo Huai was not short of immortal crystals, so she could no longer seduce him with money. She decided to use her strongest trump card.
She took out a small jade box from her sleeve and opened it. Five star-like beads shone inside. She took out one of them, put it in the palm of her hand, and then slowly stretched it towards Guo Huai.
"These are the spirit beads of heaven and earth. Each one contains endless power of law. With them, you will achieve unprecedented breakthroughs and improvements." Zhao Lanyao's voice was low and seductive.
Guo Huai's eyes moved slightly. He was no stranger to this kind of treasure. The Heaven and Earth Spirit Pearls are rare godsends. Legend has it that each of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Pearls possesses the power of several laws.
Obtaining it can enhance the understanding of the power of the laws inside, and enhance strength and breakthroughs faster.
We must know that a heavenly immortal's breakthrough to the true immortal realm requires not only a massive amount of immortal energy, but also a threshold that must comprehend the power of the eighteen laws. Otherwise, even if one reaches the peak of the immortal realm, it will be difficult to break through to the true immortal realm.
Although he does not lack fairy crystals, the heaven and earth spirit beads are also attractive enough to him.
He stretched out his hand and gently caught the Heaven and Earth Spirit Pearl handed over by Zhao Lanyao. The beads emitted a dazzling light on his palm, and warm power flowed into his body, making him feel the endless possibilities.
Guo Huai's eyes became sharp. He looked at Zhao Lanyao and asked: "Do you want to use these five heaven and earth spirit beads in exchange for my joining?"
Zhao Lanyao nodded, she knew this was the best bargaining chip. She was secretly glad that she had expected it and brought these heaven and earth spirit beads to deal with emergencies.
Although these five heaven and earth spirit beads are extremely precious and are worth at least tens of millions of fairy crystals, for me to go to the secret realm to get the treasure, these five heaven and earth spirit beads are not worth mentioning at all.
"Okay then, I agree to your request." Guo Huai withdrew his hand and put the Heaven and Earth Spirit Pearl back into the jade box.
He knew that by entering the Orchid Secret Realm this time, he would not only gain treasures and opportunities, but also gain the power of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Pearls, which would be of great help to his cultivation.
Zhao Lanyao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Thank you City Master Guo, I believe our cooperation will achieve great success."
Guo Huai nodded. He also believed that this adventure would start a new journey and bring endless opportunities and challenges. He is looking forward to the opening of Orchid Secret Realm and can't wait to start a new adventure.
