Gu Yang opened his eyes, looking at a devout Lily kneeling on the ground, he asked, “What is it that you’re doing?”
Lily was clearly a little excited, jabbering in a strange language.
He turned to Qian Xiyun who was standing dumbstruck on the side, asking,
“Can you understand what she’s saying?”
Qian Xiyun looked at him with a peculiar gaze, swallowed, and said, “She seems to mistake you for some kind of ‘holy messenger’ of a sect called the Divine Bird Society. She wants you to return to the West Bank Continent to save their believers or something.”
Upon hearing that, she couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Gu, have you ever been to the West Bank Continent?”
“I haven’t.”
Gu Yang shook his head. He knew the problem likely traced back to his cultivation of the “Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens” technique.
As for this Divine Bird Society, it was probably the Phoenix Society. Qian Xiyun’s translation was slightly off.
He learned from the simulation that Lily had mistaken him for a holy messenger, so he decided to expose his True Essence, and sure enough, she bowed immediately.
He said to Lily, “Get up.”
She only then rose from the ground, her face respectful.
Gu Yang spoke, “I am not some holy messenger, you have mistaken me for someone else.”
However, Lily shook her head, continuing to jabber in her unintelligible language, interspersed with a few phrases in Great Zhou.
Gu Yang kind of understood, she seemed convinced it was him.
He tried to ask her a few questions, attempting to gain a clear understanding of a shaman’s cultivation methods.
Unluckily, due to the language barrier, communication was too difficult.
Qian Xiyun was equally helpless. Regarding the language of the West Bank Continent, she could only manage daily communication. When it came to professional terms, she was equally at a loss.
All Gu Yang could somewhat understand was the concept of ‘meditation.’
It seemed like they could only fully comprehend a shaman’s cultivation method once Lily had thoroughly learned the Great Zhou language.
Qian Xiyun said, “Actually, there are several shamans and mages in Jingzhou who come from the West Bank Continent. There are also a few priests. Their cultivation methods are drastically different from those of Great Zhou. They generally gain magic through meditation and communication with gods or the will of heaven and earth.”
In her words, she didn’t seem particularly impressed with that kind of cultivation method.
The martial arts of Great Zhou always involve introspection. It’s normal not to think highly of methods that involve seeking power from gods.
Gu Yang then asked Lily another question, “Why did you come to Great Zhou?”
Lily just began jabbering once more.
Qian Xiyun translated, “She said, she came here to look for a lost holy scripture.”
A holy scripture?
Couldn’t it be the “Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens” technique, could it?
Just as this thought flashed across his mind, Gu Yang dismissed it.
The “Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens” technique, although mysterious, is a legitimate martial arts technique. It couldn’t possibly originate from a foreign land.
When he further asked where that holy scripture had been lost, Lily shook her head to indicate she didn’t know.
If she didn’t even know where it was, they could only rely on luck now.
Feeling fairly rested, the three of them continued on their way.
This time around, Gu Yang easily gained a little sidekick, though Qian Xiyun did not seem bothered at all.
Afterward, Lily used a disguise spell, altering their appearance. They went into a town and bought three horses to speed up their journey.
In this way, they didn’t have to worry about revealing their identities and they could also gather some information.
Three days later, they arrived at a ferry crossing and saw a tea house by the roadside. Feeling thirsty, they stopped to order three cups of tea.
Conversations from two people in the martial arts world could be heard nearby.
“…Have you heard? The tenth beauty on the Beauty List, Miss Cao of the Cao family, has offered a reward of a million taels for the whereabouts of a man.”
Gu Yang’s action of taking a sip of water paused, his gaze flickering towards the two men.
“Tsk, tsk, truly worthy of being one of the nine prominent families. A start-up reward of a million taels, what a big spender! I wonder if that man is her enemy or her lover.”
“Definitely an enemy. I heard that Cao Yi Yi is quite flirtatious, with countless lovers. She wouldn’t be so hung up on one man…”
“Hush, be quiet. Are you seeking death? If you’re overheard by someone from the Cao family, aren’t you inviting trouble?”
“It’s my mistake…”
“I think that Miss Cao is most likely playing with people. If she really wants to find someone, why doesn’t she give a name or description? How would anyone go about searching?”
“Well, not necessarily. One million taels of silver, all piled up in a courtyard in Bingzhou city…”
Listening up to this point, Gu Yang knew what Cao Yi Yi was planning.
She was spreading rumors, solely to lure him into seeking her out.
She was quite clever, she had quickly found his soft spot – money.
One million taels.
Gu Yang was rather moved, however, since she dared to put out the bait, there must be a trap set. If he really went there, it would be like throwing himself into a trap.
Nevertheless, he made sure to note this down.
Once he was powerful enough, it wouldn’t be too late to take the money.
Following a brief rest, the three continued on their way.
By now, they had left Luo Prefecture and reached Bingzhou.
That night, they rented a room in a city.
At the hour of the Rat, two figures sneaked out of the inn, it was Gu Yang and Lily, clad in black robes.
“Let’s go.”
With a wave of his hand, Lily used the invisibility technique and they vanished without a trace.
Moments later, the invisible Gu Yang and Lily arrived at the Four Sea Bank in the city and jumped straight in.
In no time, they found the vault where the gold and silver were kept and didn’t alert anyone along the way.
Lily cast a spell and opened the vault.
Once they entered, Gu Yang transferred all the gold and silver into the system. His balance, which had only been 430,000, suddenly increased to 570,000.
A full 120,000 taels.
Lily watched, somewhat startled, as the gold and silver disappeared into thin air.
That move possessed no fluctuations of any magical technique.
She thought it was a native magic of Great Zhou, so she didn’t think much of it.
In her mind, it was perfectly normal for a holy messenger to know spells.
Just before he left, Gu Yang wrote a line on the wall, “Borrowing some gold and silver from your vault,” and signed it “Plum Blossom.”
The entire operation didn’t take ten minutes and went very smoothly.
Gu Yang felt exhilarated as he left the bank.
The day he discovered Lily could use an invisibility spell, he had entertained the idea of using it to steal money from bank vaults.
He deliberately exposed his True Essence that day as he had pre-planned everything.
Experience proved that her spell, although a little fancy and not really useful in battles, it was indeed magical in other ways.
While Gu Yang lacked money before, he had never contemplated robbing a bank.
Firstly, he didn’t want to harm too many innocent people.
Secondly, such an act would draw too much attention. In no time, everyone would know that he could make money vanish into thin air, arousing suspicion.
Such a deed had too low a return for its high risks.
But now that he had Lily’s cooperation, it was different. Stealing the silver from the vault would not alert a soul.
Finally, Gu Yang cautioned, “This matter cannot be revealed to anyone, including Miss Qian.”
Lily understood this sentence and nodded solemnly.
