Chapter 1767: A Small Token

~6 min read 1,153 words

As Shen Xian's words fell, a disgusting-looking monster charged out of the fog ahead.

All five had never entered Liufang Dizhi before, so naturally they'd never seen such a thing.

In an instant, Zhao Zhengping and the others had readied themselves for battle, but Xu Jie shouted in a low voice.

"Wait."

Hearing that, the four were baffled—what are we waiting for? The monster is already lunging at our faces.

On the contrary, Xu Jie calmly looked at the figure on the monster's back—this must be the Heavenly Pride Ye Zhangqing spoke of from within Liufang Dizhi.

No idea which faction they belong to, but it doesn't matter—Xu Jie told Zhao Zhengping and the others not to act rashly and stepped forward alone.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhengping wanted to speak up to stop him—it was too risky—Xu San..........

But before he could speak, Xu San clasped his hands and said to the youth.

"Give me a moment to say a sentence."

Hearing that, the Liufang Dizhi Heavenly Pride opposite didn't know what Xu Jie was up to, but granting a moment's time was no big deal, so he nodded doubtfully and agreed.

Seeing this, under the gaze of Zhao Zhengping and the others, Xu Jie leapt onto the monster's back, then said something to the Liufang Dizhi Heavenly Pride—no one knew what.

Anyway, after watching the two babble on for a while, Xu Jie suddenly put his arm around the Heavenly Pride's neck.

This sudden move even startled Zhao Zhengping.

Just as he was about to speak, the next second the Heavenly Pride showed no aversion to Xu Jie's action, instead grinning and immediately linking arms with him.

Just like old friends who've known each other for years, they chatted and occasionally burst into loud laughter, though that smile somehow felt lewd.

Huh???

Zhao Zhengping and the others were utterly confused—what's going on? Does Xu Jie know that person?

Impossible—he's never been to Liufang Dizhi before; we're all first-timers, so he couldn't possibly know those Heavenly Prides inside.

Just as the four were dazed, Xu Jie, standing beside that Heavenly Pride, already waved and shouted at them.

"Don't just stand there—hurry up and come on up."

Huh???

Hearing that, Zhao Zhengping and the others, full of doubt, jumped onto the monster's back; as they all got on, the Liufang Dizhi Heavenly Pride turned his head and said something to Xu Jie—no one knew what.

Xu Jie then nodded, and everyone rode the monster forward into the fog.

"So what's the situation now?"

Sitting on the monster's back, Wanxiang looked curiously at the front where Xu Jie chatted with the youth, and quietly asked Zhao Zhengping beside him.

Facing Wanxiang's question, Zhao Zhengping replied with a strange expression.

"How would I know?"

"Aren't you his senior brother?"

"I am his senior brother, not some worm in his gut—I was just with you all a moment ago."

No one knows what Xu Jie did, but suddenly he's gotten along with that Liufang Dizhi Heavenly Pride like real brothers—could his affinity really have exploded like this?

Also, that's not right—Xu San never had that kind of affinity from childhood.

Anyway, we don't know how Xu Jie managed this, but under the guidance of that Liufang Dizhi Heavenly Pride, our group arrived at a tree island.

This should be the base of that youthful Heavenly Pride and his companions.

Regarding some matters inside Liufang Dizhi, Yun Xiantai naturally told them about them yesterday.

However, Yun Xiantai had only heard this from Ye Zhangqing and hadn't seen it firsthand, so what he told Zhao Zhengping and the others was mostly just advice.

As for what actually happens after entering Liufang Dizhi, the five will have to figure it out themselves.

The monster carrying the five slowly landed, and Xu Jie jumped down following the youth.

Afterward, many Liufang Dizhi Heavenly Prides gathered around, apparently curious about these outsiders.

Zhao Zhengping, feeling doubtful, hurried to follow Xu Jie, and the others likewise stayed close behind.

Everyone was curious—what exactly did Xu Jie do to become so quickly acquainted with that Liufang Dizhi Heavenly Pride? It's off, very off.

Under the gaze of the four, Xu Jie was recommended by that Heavenly Pride to his elder brother.

That is the leader of this group, a cultivator at the Great Emperor Realm.

Seeing the group's leader, a Heavenly Pride, Zhao Zhengping and the others flashed a hint of apprehension.

He looks about their age, yet he's already a Great Emperor Realm cultivator.

With such cultivation, if he really attacked, the five of them would definitely not be a match.

But the next second, Xu Jie took out a book from his Space Ring............. Huh???

Seeing the Dao Yisheng Cheng-published courtesan picture album in Xu Jie's hand, Zhao Zhengping was dumbfounded.

Why the hell is he pulling out this thing? Are you sick?

But before Zhao Zhengping could react, Xu Jie handed the courtesan picture album to the youthful elder brother, grinning and wearing an expression all men understand.

"Just a small token; I hope fellow Daoist won't disdain it."

"Huh? What is this.................."

At first, the youthful elder brother didn't know what this was, frowning as he asked; he actually had no fondness for these outsiders.

Compared to the Heavenly Prides who had interacted with Ye Zhangqing earlier, this group was obviously more aloof.

But as Xu Jie opened the first page of the album, grinning, he said:

"Just a little trinket; for the elder brother to relax in his spare time, it's not bad."

Looking at the picture that made one's blood surge, the youthful elder brother's whole face flushed red.

His heart surged with excitement, he secretly thought:

"What kind of treasure is this? There's actually such a treasure in this world?"

And Xu Jie casually called out "big brother", bringing this person back to his senses; immediately, without changing expression, he took the portrait and then gave Xu Jie a meaningful look.

This kid knows the ropes—such a treasure has never existed in Liufang Dizhi; at least I've never seen one.

Then he put on a look of approval, patted Xu Jie's shoulder, and nodded as he spoke.

"You're not bad; from now on you're one of us brothers."

"Thanks, big brother, for thinking highly of me."

"Sigh, we're all brothers of the same family—family doesn't keep secrets."

"Since big brother values me so much, I naturally won't disappoint; there are a few more volumes here—big brother, please take them all."

"Good brother."

"As long as big brother likes it, that's fine."

"Huh???"

Seeing Xu Jie already having his shoulder put around by that youthful big brother, Zhao Zhengping and his three companions, who had been watching from the side the whole time, were dumbfounded.

"What's going on now? Damn, are the people of Liufang Dizhi poisoned? Just a few albums of courtesan paintings and you guys pull this?"
