Ch 209: Liu Dongyue Is Hungry
“Actually, you don’t need to really make it.”
At this time, Shangguan Wanwan took out a bead from her Storage Bag.
This bead was entirely black, and it shimmered with a strange luster. Shangguan Wanwan handed the bead to Li Hanzhou and said, “Actually, I have a Space-Time World Bead, but this Space-Time World Bead is broken. I want to find a Spirit Treasure Master to repair this bead for me.”
“Can I take a look?”
Li Hanzhou asked.
Shangguan Wanwan nodded.
Li Hanzhou picked up the bead and examined it carefully. He injected his Spiritual Power into it, and found that the black bead trembled slightly, then became still.
Li Hanzhou was also experienced in making Spirit Treasures.
He immediately discovered the problem.
For some reason, the runes on this bead had been partially erased, causing the bead to be inoperable.
In his previous life, Li Hanzhou had encountered this situation while repairing washing machines and refrigerators for people. To put it simply, the internal circuitry had a problem; a certain part was broken, but most parts were fine. One only needed to redraw the erased runes, and it could be activated.
It wasn’t a difficult task.
“This is a Cold Sky Bead, right?”
Li Hanzhou examined the black bead in his hand.
“Yes,” Shangguan Wanwan said, “The Space-Time World Bead is made from two beads. One of the beads’ core is the Cold Sky Bead, and the other’s material is the Earth Scorching Bead.”
“I have two more here. If you can help me, I can give you these two beads.”
Saying this, Shangguan Wanwan took out two more.
Li Hanzhou was somewhat surprised. Cold Sky Beads and Earth Scorching Beads were very rare Treasures. He didn’t expect Shangguan Wanwan to have two more.
This made Li Hanzhou curious. What exactly was Shangguan Wanwan’s identity? To have such Treasures, she certainly wasn’t just a simple teahouse owner.
“Can you help me with the first matter now?”
Shangguan Wanwan couldn’t help but ask.
“Yes.”
“But I need the reward first.” Li Hanzhou pointed to the Manual in Shangguan Wanwan’s hand, which made Shangguan Wanwan wary. She couldn’t help but say, “That won’t work. If I give you the thing, what if you run away?”
“Sigh.”
Li Hanzhou couldn’t help but shake his head. “If I were to kill you right now, the Manual would still be mine. Is there anyone in this house who can stop me?”
“Ah this…”
Shangguan Wanwan thought about it; if Li Hanzhou really wanted to kill her and steal the treasure, she wouldn’t be able to stop him.
Although she didn’t know how strong Li Hanzhou was, Copper Hammer died without even getting close, and based on that skill alone, she had no power to resist.
“It’s more like you…”
Li Hanzhou pointed to Shangguan Wanwan’s face. “I have a friend, whose mother told him before she died, never trust beautiful women, because beautiful women are the best at deceiving people.”
“Are you complimenting my beauty?”
Shangguan Wanwan raised her eyebrows. When other men complimented her beauty, she wouldn’t feel anything, and even found it annoying. But when Li Hanzhou complimented her beauty, Shangguan Wanwan felt a little delighted.
“Is that the point?”
Li Hanzhou sucked in his palm, and the Guide fell directly into Li Hanzhou’s hand.
“Alright, I’ll go do your bidding.”
Saying this, Li Hanzhou went out the door.
Watching Li Hanzhou’s departing back, Shangguan Wanwan could only pray in her heart that Li Hanzhou was a man of integrity.
She couldn’t sleep either, so she decided to wait for Li Hanzhou to return.
So Shangguan Wanwan took out some tea leaves and prepared to brew herself a pot of tea, drinking tea while waiting for Li Hanzhou.
Before the water even boiled, the door outside opened. Shangguan Wanwan looked and found that it was Li Hanzhou who had returned.
“What happened?”
Shangguan Wanwan was stunned and couldn’t help but say, “Didn’t you find it?”
“The matter is done, why wouldn’t I come back?” Li Hanzhou asked strangely.
“Done?”
Shangguan Wanwan was greatly surprised and couldn’t help but say, “You already killed Rao San?”
“Yes.”
“He had many guards, all Transcendent Realm Experts. Besides Copper Hammer, his mansion also had two Profound Connection Realm Experts!” Shangguan Wanwan couldn’t believe it.
She couldn’t even kill a chicken that fast.
“I killed them all incidentally.”
Li Hanzhou not only killed Mr. Rao San, but also picked up Mr. Rao San’s Storage Bag, which contained a full One Million Taels of silver. This made Li Hanzhou very happy.
After all, he didn’t have much money on him.
This was also an unexpected gain.
Shangguan Wanwan didn’t say she believed or didn’t believe, but waited quietly until dawn.
After dawn, Shangguan Wanwan heard the noise from the street.
“Shopkeeper!”
At this time, Xiao Zhao ran in from outside.
He said breathlessly, “Shopkeeper, something major happened outside! Last night, Mr. Rao San was murdered!”
“Really dead.”
Shangguan Wanwan was surprised at this moment. Although she knew Li Hanzhou was unlikely to lie, hearing that Mr. Rao San was actually dead still left her somewhat dazed.
The man who had caused her so much headache and fear for so long, a man she felt completely powerless against, was dealt with by Li Hanzhou as easily as eating and drinking.
“Morning.”
At this time, Li Hanzhou also walked in from outside.
“Xiao Li, did you hear? Mr. Rao San was murdered,” Xiao Zhao said, patting Li Hanzhou on the shoulder.
“Didn’t pay attention,” Li Hanzhou shrugged.
“Mr… Mr. Li, good morning.” At this moment, Shangguan Wanwan responded, but she didn’t dare to call Li Hanzhou by his name, instead addressing him as Mr. Li.
This made Xiao Zhao a little strange.
Mr. Li?
When did the shopkeeper become so polite to Li Hanzhou?
Li Hanzhou didn’t mind, but continued to tell the Tale of the White Snake.
He told the Tale of the White Snake during the day, and repaired the Space-Time World Bead for Shangguan Wanwan at night. At the same time, Li Hanzhou was also making a Space-Time World Bead himself.
Two beads, even separated by tens of thousands of miles, could still be used for teleportation.
If he could send one bead to Yun Qianzhu, wouldn’t things be much simpler? Then Yun Qianzhu could simply activate the teleportation and return to his side, or when he returned to the Longevity Temple, he could have Yun Qianzhu activate the Space-Time World Bead to teleport back.
But this was only a backup plan. Seeing Yun Qianzhu was still very difficult at present. A place like Buddha’s Treasury, he couldn’t even calculate it, it must be extremely difficult to approach, plus there was that old Monk Jiulong there.
If he forced his way in, he might suffer a loss.
At this moment, on the isolated island in the Chaotic Cloud Sea.
Gurgling…
Liu Dongyue had been here for many days.
He still hadn’t found a way to leave, and his food was gone. He was already feeling hungry.
He felt that he might starve to death here.
His martial arts were mediocre, and relying on True Qi to sustain himself couldn’t last many days.
Looking back at the wooden door behind him, he couldn’t help but want to take a few bites.
