"I do not wish to search, but that does not mean I believe in the Heavenly God Temple!" Lu Fan said coldly. "As soon as I left Jiangbei, someone stole the Nine Dragon Grass. This is likely related to the Heavenly God Temple, and they are the ones who leaked this information!"
"The King of the Northwest speaks thus, and I am extremely alarmed!"
A smile played on his lips as Puzhi stated frankly, "I say the same thing, the Nine Dragon Hall is not in the Heavenly God Temple. If the King of the Northwest does not believe me, you can search directly. If you suspect without cause, I will have difficulty explaining!"
"Very well, if the Heavenly God Temple insists on this, I shall see how long you can last!" Su Dan Novel Network
Lu Fan said coldly, "You should be very clear that I am the King of the Northwest. If this is the case, there will be no good outcome for you. Since the Nine Dragon Grass was intercepted by your Heavenly God Temple, I will naturally find evidence. When the evidence is presented, the Heavenly God Temple will cease to exist. I will personally inform the Heavenly Court and send experts to encircle and suppress you!"
Puzhi's brow furrowed. Lu Fan's words made him more fearful. If this were true, it would not be a good thing for them.
Lu Fan and Liu Ruyan turned and left. They did not stay long, as they knew this was not a place to linger. The Heavenly God Temple refused to admit it, and the matter was extremely troublesome.
After leaving, Lu Fan did not delay. He went to the Liu family in Jiangbei. Liu Shuzhen of the Liu family in Jiangbei was cultivating. Upon hearing that someone was looking for her, she hurried out.
"Why have you returned?" Liu Shuzhen asked with surprise. However, her attitude towards Lu Fan was very deferential. She now knew that Lu Fan was the King of the Northwest, and she was not someone he could afford to offend.
"We've encountered a bit of trouble and would like your help!" Lu Fan said with a slight smile, without any pretense.
"Whatever the King of the Northwest wishes, just command it. The Liu family will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Liu Shuqin quickly clasped her fists, her expression earnest. She was very clear about this. If she could befriend Lu Fan, their Liu family would surely have a place in the future.
"Do you know where the most experts in Jiangbei City are located?" Lu Fan asked. "Preferably those with some connection to the Heavenly God Temple!"
"In the entire Jiangbei City, the Heavenly God Temple has the greatest influence. Apart from the Heavenly God Temple, there seem to be no other exceptionally strong forces!"
Liu Shuzhen was suspicious but hesitated to speak directly.
"I see!"
Lu Fan nodded. "Are there no other places? After all, Jiangbei City has such a vast territory!"
"Have you encountered some trouble?" Liu Shuzhen asked again, this time with more seriousness.
"That's right, we've indeed encountered some trouble. The Nine Dragon Hall was stolen!" Liu Ruyan said frankly. "These people are highly skilled and not ordinary individuals. We originally wanted to ask you, but it seems you don't know much either!"
"I see!"
Liu Shuzhen nodded. "In that case, you must have been targeted by the underground merchants!"
"Underground merchants?"
Lu Fan asked with surprise. "What kind of organization is this? Why have I never heard of it before?"
"The underground merchants are not an organization, but merely an underground trade. Their purpose is to take on missions and earn enough magical treasures!"
Liu Shuzhen stated frankly, "However, using people from the underground merchants is very expensive. The theft of the Nine Dragon Grass must be related to the underground merchants."
"I didn't expect Jiangbei to have such rules!" Lu Fan nodded slightly, his heart filled with surprise.
"Jiangbei has many rules!" Liu Shuzhen said frankly. "If you want to go to the underground merchants, I can take you there. But even if you go, you likely won't find any clues. They have already succeeded and must have concealed themselves."
"In that case, all our clues are cut off!" Lu Fan frowned. "To obtain the Nine Dragon Grass, we went through immense hardship, and now we have to give up halfway!"
"Perhaps you can go to God of Wealth Jiang. He might have a way!"
After a moment of hesitation, Liu Shuzhen said, "God of Wealth Jiang can calculate anything. No matter what it is, he can figure out one or two things. If you can ask him to act, it will be twice the result with half the effort!"
"God of Wealth Jiang?" Lu Fan was slightly stunned. He had never heard of this God of Wealth Jiang, but he was very curious about his abilities.
Under Liu Shuzhen's guidance, Lu Fan and the others soon arrived at God of Wealth Jiang's shop. The shop looked dilapidated, with only a few talismans inside and nothing else of significance.
After observing carefully for a moment, Lu Fan saw an old man lying in the shop, looking lazy and indifferent.
"God of Wealth Jiang, business is here!"
Liu Shuzhen said with a smile, "This is a good opportunity, you can't miss it!"
Facing these words, God of Wealth Jiang raised his head slightly, looking somewhat languid. "Just say what you need. But you should know my rules. If you want me to act, you must offer something that moves me. Otherwise, I won't act easily!"
"That is natural!" Liu Shuzhen looked at Lu Fan, with a knowing look.
As the King of the Northwest, Lu Fan should possess many treasures.
Lu Fan gave an embarrassed smile and looked at God of Wealth Jiang. "Senior, what do you want? If possible, I can give you some cultivation techniques?"
"That's not necessary. I have plenty of cultivation techniques!" God of Wealth Jiang shrugged. "If you don't have anything I'm satisfied with, there's no way you can get benefits from me. After all, I, God of Wealth Jiang, do not do unprofitable business!"
"If I'm not mistaken, Senior must be quite knowledgeable about the Five Elements techniques. How about this, I will write down a Five Elements secret technique for Senior to observe. This will be of great use to Senior. This secret technique is not of much importance to me."
"You speak with great confidence!"
God of Wealth Jiang looked at Lu Fan. "I am most familiar with the Five Elements secret techniques. Trying to impress me with this is beyond your ability. If you have no other treasures, then leave quickly! Don't waste my time here!"
Facing these words, Lu Fan felt somewhat helpless. He then wrote down the incantation for the Five Elements secret technique. This was content from the Wordless Heavenly Book, which was not much of a treasure for Lu Fan. However, for those who practiced the Five Elements techniques, it was different.
After all, the things in the Wordless Heavenly Book had never disappointed Lu Fan. Moreover, Lu Fan knew very well that his most valuable assets were likely the many contents within the Wordless Heavenly Book, which recorded various ancient secret techniques and could be used endlessly.
