CH 53

Yan Hui felt like the wait for the overseer of intel to arrive was agonizing.

A thought slipped through her mind. If genuine fox lust fragrance needed the blood of a nine-tailed fox demon to be refined, and the nine-tailed fox demon princess had disappeared for such a long time....... Although Qinq Qiu was located in the southwest, that didn't mean they didn't have any influence in Central Plains. Yet they with all their influence couldn't located the whereabouts of the princess.......

Could it be that Su Ying had captured the fox demon princess? Furthermore, could it be that Su Ying had removed the princess's neidan and used the blood to refine?!

If that was the case, then the nine-tailed fox demon clan, who greatly valued blood relations, would bound to be extremely wrathful. The relationship between cultivators and demons had temporarily stabilized with great difficulty. Who knows, perhaps this might incite a great conflict.......

The more Yan Hui thought about it, the more it frightened her. Fifty years ago, the cultivation clans and the demon clans fought. Although Yan Hui wasn't part of it, just hearing what was circulated by others was enough to scare her.

Even though the cultivation clans were able to hold onto Central Plains in the end and push out the demon clans, the chaos of the conflict created refugees everywhere. It was a deplorable situation. Both demons and humans faced retribution in the aftermath.

The world took several decades of hard effort to restore order. If Su Ying's own selfishness wrecked that, then that really is.......

Yan Hui agonized over it and became more unsettled. In comparison to her anxiousness, Tian Yao calmly sipped tea besides her.

A short period later, a foul-mouthed man was heard along with a muddle of footsteps that burst into the room: "I said letting the attendants always deal with customers is enough! Who cares about some important customer that insist on me attending them! I'm busy!"

With those words, a thick eyebrowed and large eyed, burly man drunkenly walked in with a jar of wine. Without looking around the room, the man lifted his robes and sat muttering in a chair. The chair bore his weight, but it let out several ominous creaks. The man didn't care. He just tilted back his head, thrust his feet out, and stretched out on the chair. Then he started to snore.

Yan Hui was stunned by the sight. Tian Yao also slightly narrowed his eyes.

The shopkeeper rushed into the room from behind and stood in front of the beggar-like man. The shopkeeper still kept his smiling demeanor: "Honored guests, this is our store's intel overseer. His temperament is a bit strange, but he has some skill. The information you want to know......."

The shopkeeper hadn't finished speaking when the seemingly asleep burly man suddenly woke up. The burly man was indignant and kicked the shopkeeper's butt, causing the shopkeeper to stagger and fall in Tian Yao and Yan Hui's direction. The two moved out of the way, and the shopkeeper's head hit the seat. He clutched his nose and didn't get up for awhile.

"Rubbish!" The drunk man yelled. "I know it all! What do you mean some skill?! I have great skill! From those that fly to those that crawl, I.......belch, I know it all!"

Tian Yao immediately took over the man's words: "Good sir, since you are so skilled, I don't know whether or not sir perhaps knows what information I want."

"I said I'm Know-It-All. I know it all!"
