“That’s right. The golden light of the Divine Gate is omnipotent. Even the ancient immortal ruins that have disappeared in the long river of history can’t hide under the golden light,” City Lord Gu said piously.
Then, she frowned. “However, because of this, there are only two possibilities if the golden light from the Divine Gate is unable to find any trace of Qiao’er.”
Other than Qiao’er’s death and she had been possessed, City Lord Gu did not give a third explanation because that would be disrespectful to the prestige of the Divine Gate!
“Possessed? Could it be that Xin Yu ultimately made a move?” Zhou Yun felt his heart palpitate. He recalled that in the refining furnace, Xin Yu had said that she wanted to possess someone. However, at that time, Xin Yu had never said that she would possess Qiao’ er.
Zhou Yun believed Xin Yu’s words. He did not expect that she would still possess Qiao’er after coming out of the furnace!
In his subconscious, he deliberately ignored the possibility of Qiao’er’s death. He could only turn his suspicions on Xin Yu, the heretic cultivator!
“Looks like you have ideas. Do you need my help?”City Lord Gu said when she saw Zhou Yun deep in thought.
Zhou Yun was, after all, a good seedling that she had taken a fancy to. Whether it was to recruit him as a disciple or to show her sincerity, City Lord Gu planned to help him anyway.
Zhou Yun looked at City Lord Gu. He knew very well that as the City Lord of one of the dozens of large immortal cultivation cities in the Divine Gate, the price one had to pay to gain her help was very high.
And now, he was just a weak cultivator who was not even a disciple. If he asked City Lord Gu for help this time, it would probably end up with him tied to City Lord Gut s camp and being restricted by her forces.
Even though Zhou Yun knew this, he still planned to do so!
After sharing his thoughts with Qiao’er under the moonlight that day, Zhou Yun could no longer lose her. As such, even if he had to ask City Lord Gu for help, he was willing to pay the price.
Moreover, he still had a trump card that he had yet to use.
After killing the demonic beasts, Zhou Yun had a terrifyingly unreachable amount of points in his hands. Although it was still not enough to buy an egg with a divine beast bloodline like Little Qing, it should be more than enough to ask a powerhouse like City Lord Gu to help!
“City Lord Gu, I would like to ask you for a favor. I want to find a person whose alias is Xin Yu and whose real name is Yi Wuyin,” Zhou Yun gritted his teeth and said seriously to City Lord Gu, “The reason why Qiao’er wasn’t found by the golden light of the Divine Gate was very likely because of her.”
When City Lord Gu heard Zhou Yun’s words, she nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that this talented disciple would not be able to escape her grasp.
“Looks like you know who did it. I thought it would be a little troublesome, but since I know the name, the other party will be much easier to find,” City Lord Gu said lightly. She had thought that it would be more troublesome, but she did not expect that he even knew the name of the person who possessed Qiao’er.
“Could it be that City Lord Gu knows this person?” Zhou Yun could not help but ask when he saw the relaxed look on City Lord Gu’s face. He was even more puzzled. Could Xin Yu have really been an ordinary heretic cultivator a thousand years ago?
“The golden light of the Divine Gate can perfectly detect even the ancient immortal ruins. After knowing that person’s name, wouldn’t it be easy to find her?” City Lord Gu said proudly. She could see how much Zhou Yun valued the female cultivator named Qiao’er, so she naturally didn’t plan to dawdle any longer.
“The golden light of the Divine Gate has endless uses. It is the most precious wealth left behind by the true ruler of the Divine Gate,” As City Lord Gu spoke, she walked out.
“However, if you want to mobilize the Divine Gate’s golden light and find someone with a specific name, you need to go to my city. That level of golden light is the same as when we searched for the lost disciple back then. Only the City Lords have the authority to use it.”
“Zhou Yun, are you willing to come to my city?” City Lord Gu looked at Zhou Yun and said. She was not in a hurry to take him as her disciple. After all, in her eyes, he was already in her hands. She could not be too anxious and appear to be demeaning.
“Then I’ll have to trouble City Lord Gu,” Zhou Yun nodded. He didn’t ask further and just quietly walked to City Lord Gu’s side.
Very quickly, City Lord Gu stretched out her hand and waved toward the sky. A token that was even more resplendent and luxurious than Zhou Yun’s token appeared in her hand.
Then, a golden light seemed to come from the void, breaking through the restrictions of space and accurately connecting to the token in City Lord Gu’s hand from the distant headquarters of the Divine Gate.
“Close your eyes. In the next moment, you will see the most prosperous city in the Upper 24 Cities, Zenith City!” City Lord Gu’s voice was excited. She waved her sleeves and rolled Zhou Yun up.
Swish!
In the next moment, Zhou Yun felt his body become light. A speed that transcended space descended on him.
It was so fast that he could not feel any of his five senses. His body seemed to have lost all sense of perception. In the lack of vision, his mind was only left with one thought, “It’s too fast. It’s as if my soul can’t catch up to my body!”
Pa!
In the next moment, Zhou Yun felt a sense of weightlessness as if he was finally standing on the ground again after swimming for too long. When he opened his eyes again, he realized that everything around him had suddenly changed.
It was all humans.
No, to be precise, these were all immortals!
Zenith City was a huge city made up of immortal cultivators.
In the sky were floating buildings and on the ground were glazed buildings. Flying boats and flying swords flew between these buildings.
Everything looked so orderly. It was completely different from the scene at the base outside the Divine Gate where Zhou Yun was previously.
This place was like a new immortal cultivation civilization!
Before Zhou Yun could even take a few more glances, City Lord Gu pulled her
sleeve and he arrived at the tallest and most central floating building in Zenith City that countless looked up to.
The huge floating building that was several miles wide and hundreds of meters tall was like a castle in the sky. Countless spiritual stones and heavenly treasures decorated the exterior. With a glass-like material as the theme, it was not an eyesore hanging in the sky. Instead, it was even more eye-catching because of its extravagance!
“This is the most secretive place in Zenith City. There are hundreds of millions of cultivators in Zenith City, but only six have been here since the city was built. ”
As City Lord Gu spoke, she walked to a throne in the center and sat down. Then, she propped her cheek with her right hand and sized up Zhou Yun, nodding in satisfaction.
“I will use my authority as the City Lord to help you find Qiao’er, but after that, I want you to promise me one thing.”
City Lord Gu didn’t guarantee anything. She didn’t like to show off before she succeeded. She preferred fair transactions. Hence, she planned to find Qiao’er and make Zhou Yun join her camp willingly.
Rather, it was more like only after seeing Zhou Yun did City Lord Gu truly have the intention to take in a disciple..
