Chapter 2511: Since It's an Improper Request, There's No Need to Ask

This girl of the Spirit Yang Tribe, the agreement she initially reached with Extreme Bliss Heaven, was to obtain funds by auctioning off her own Spirit Yang Pills.

Meanwhile, Extreme Bliss Heaven would take a twenty percent cut of the profit as compensation.

As a condition of the exchange, Extreme Bliss Heaven promised to guarantee the girl's safety within its sphere of influence.

Precisely for this reason, when that Spirit Child of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe had designs on the girl, she was utterly powerless to resist.

After all, Extreme Bliss Heaven gives no face whatsoever to the Spirit Children of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe, completely ignoring their existence.

However, Xu Jie has now successfully refined the Spirit Yang Pill and is about to leave Extreme Bliss Heaven.

This means the girl has lost her reason to remain in Extreme Bliss Heaven. Her current problem is how to safely leave the city and depart from the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens.

In this unfamiliar place, relying solely on her own strength, for her to sneak past the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child without any outside help and successfully escape the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens is nearly an impossible task.

So the girl naturally thought of asking Xu Jie for help.

After all, in the unfamiliar Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, Xu Jie is the only person she knows.

Just then, the girl followed closely behind Xu Jie as he left seclusion, her face showing sincere intent as she spoke softly.

"Young Master Xu, regarding the previous matter..."

However, before the girl could finish speaking, Xu Jie laughed and interrupted her without hesitation, speaking in a relaxed tone.

"This matter, I already told you before—I can't make the decision and don't have that ability. If we're talking about who in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens could handle this, I only know my junior fellow disciple. As long as he agrees, there will be absolutely no problem, so I can only bring you to find him."

In fact, Xu Jie actually has little influence in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens; his confidence in saying this comes entirely from his connection to Ye Zhangqing.

Therefore, when faced with the girl's request, he naturally could only defer the decision to Ye Zhangqing and could not directly agree to her demand.

After all, he himself indeed lacks the authority and ability to fulfill the girl's wish.

The girl learned from Xu Jie that his junior fellow disciple was actually the person who had originally bought her. However, since then she has not seen him again.

According to Xu Jie, his junior fellow disciple is a very strange person; even when faced with such a precious Spirit Yang Pill, he feels no stir at all, even acting somewhat dismissive, completely disregarding the Spirit Yang Pill.

This attitude is something the girl has never encountered in her life before.

Hearing this, the girl nodded lightly and replied.

"Thank you for the introduction, Young Master Xu."

Having said that, the two returned together to the Tian Family Estate.

After Xu Jie inquired with Tianlin and Miao Qianqian, he then learned that Ye Zhangqing had already gone to Heaven Above Heaven.

Because the girl was eager to leave the city, the two immediately set off at full speed for Heaven Above Heaven.

However, just as they were rushing full speed toward the Tian Shan Heaven Restaurant, a coincidence quietly occurred.

At that very moment, the Spirit Child of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe and the Heavenly Official who had once been responsible for teaching many Immortal Chefs to Ye Zhangqing also entered the Heaven Above Heaven Restaurant together.

This Heavenly Official has deep ties with the Heavenly Spirit Tribe and has always been on close terms with them.

Therefore, before formally visiting the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child conceived the idea of first paying a visit to this Heavenly Official, hoping to make the formal visit to the Heavenly Palace go more smoothly.

Regarding the request of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child, this Heavenly Official naturally would not refuse.

After all, he has long had deep friendship with the Heavenly Spirit Tribe, and in recent years he has truly profited greatly from them—details that are hard to explain to outsiders.

Faced with this Spirit Child of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe, the Heavenly Official of the Heavenly Palace showed extraordinary enthusiasm, as if he had reunited with an old friend long lost.

After all, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe is his major patron, containing countless rare treasures and precious resources, which fills the Heavenly Official with anticipation toward this Spirit Child.

The two walked into the Tian Shan Heaven Restaurant, found an elegant private room, and then ordered a table full of mountain delicacies and seafood.

However, this Heavenly Official of the Heavenly Palace had no interest in these delicacies.

Since tasting Ye Zhangqing's culinary skill, he has completely lost interest in the food prepared by other Immortal Chefs.

In his eyes, these foods are nothing but plain, ordinary fare, utterly incomparable to Ye Zhangqing's craftsmanship.

Although the Heavenly Official did not hold high expectations for this meal, out of politeness he still reluctantly accompanied the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child in eating a few bites.

However, his thoughts had already drifted to the ninth heaven, completely failing to focus on the food before him.

The Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child evidently did not notice the Heavenly Official's thoughts; he continued to smile and utter pleasantries, trying to make the atmosphere more harmonious.

However, just as he was speaking fluently, his voice suddenly cut off, as if someone had suddenly choked his throat.

The Heavenly Official raised his head somewhat surprised, following the gaze of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child, and saw at the entrance of the Tian Shan Heaven Restaurant a figure slowly walking over.

It was a man dressed in a cyan robe, with handsome features and an elegant bearing.

In an instant, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child's eyes blazed with furious fire as he stared fixedly at that man, as if he wanted to devour him alive.

Just as the Heavenly Official curiously followed the wooden pipe, his gaze fell upon the person who had entered the Heaven Above Heaven Restaurant.

Instantly, his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of surprise.

Because he was not unfamiliar with Xu Jie—he had seen him before at the Tian Family Estate and knew he was Ye Zhangqing's junior fellow disciple.

However, what puzzled him was what connection there could be between Xu Jie and the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child.

Why, upon seeing Xu Jie, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child looked as if he had encountered a mortal enemy, that look of wanting to eat him is truly bewildering.

What is even more astonishing is that his gaze was utterly ferocious to the extreme, as if he shared a deep, blood‑sea grudge with Xu Jie.

Just as the Heavenly Official was still pondering the reason, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child actually spoke first.

His tone sounded somewhat urgent, as if he cared greatly about this matter.

"Senior, you are a person of the Heavenly Palace, moreover holding the rank of Heavenly Official—within this immortal city you are indeed a high‑ranking, powerful figure. I, the junior, have a humble request here; I hope you can extend a helping hand and lend me your strength. If this succeeds, I will surely be grateful to you, unforgettable for life."

These words, spoken by the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child, were sincere and heartfelt.

But combined with that kid's glare just now, the Heavenly Official knew this matter was certainly not anything good.

Furthermore, Xu Jie is Ye Zhangqing's junior fellow disciple—how could this Heavenly Official possibly be willing to offend Ye Zhangqing?

Therefore, even when facing his own patron, the Heavenly Official responded to the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's Spirit Child's request without changing his expression.

"Since it's an improper request, there's no need to ask."
