Having finished the recount, Han Yi’s heart was already greatly shaken, but he still managed to suppress the change in his expression.
“Is it true?” Han Yi’s face still showed some disbelief.
“Absolutely.” The shopkeeper responded with firmness.
“Doesn’t that mean I can’t find the debtor for this sword?”
“That’s not right. Profound Immortal Pavilion is the property of Xuandan Sect. I can go to other Immortal Cities to find the Profound Immortal Pavilion, but 1 have no evidence.”
“No, I have to go to the Profound Immortal Pavilion to see. Even if the person is dead, the magic treasures in the pavilion are definitely still there. They need to compensate me with a magic treasure to make up for the price of selling a fake sword.”
“Hmph!”
Han Yi snorted heavily, turned around and walked away. After taking two steps, without waiting for the shopkeeper behind him to exhale, he turned back.
“By the way, if 1 need the shopkeeper to testify that there’s a problem with this sword tool, the shopkeeper won’t refuse, right?”
“Of course, I’ll pay you, and make sure you are satisfied.”
After saying this, Han Yi left angrily and headed straight for the Profound Immortal Pavilion.
Behind him, the shopkeeper wiped his sweat, not knowing why he always felt that Han Yi was like a fierce evil tiger, making him fearful, even feeling like facing a Gold Core cultivator in the pavilion.
Having finally sent the fierce man away, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Han Yi strode out of the Immortal Pavilion, then, following the address given by Liu Ruyan, he flew on his sword control towards the station of the Profound Immortal Pavilion.
In less than a quarter of an hour, he had arrived outside the Profound Immortal Pavilion.
At this moment.
The not-so-small Profound Immortal Pavilion had been sealed off, with Array Formations, surrounding the entire loft, not allowing cultivators to enter or exit.
Han Yi tried to reach out and press the main door of the loft, pushing hard inside, but he sensed a huge rebound force, pushing him back three or four steps.
He frowned. This sealing Array Formation was definitely at least a third-stage, which meant that only Gold Core cultivators could break it.
At this time, it was daytime, and the streets outside the loft were bustling, so Han Yi naturally couldn’t attempt further. He could only show a fierce expression, back off a few steps, look around, and his eyes lit up. There was a Myriad Immortals Inn diagonally opposite.
Striding into the Myriad Immortals Inn, Han Yi directly showed his Myriad Immortal Command, and then learned about the events happening at the Profound Immortal Pavilion from the respectful shopkeeper’s mouth.
After listening to the story, the innkeeper’s statement was the same as the one who had received Han Yi in the Immortal Pavilion, but Han Yi learned more details.
Ten days ago, when Zhuo Qun disappeared, actually nobody outside knew about it, because Wei Tushen of the Profound Immortal Pavilion had only announced to the public that the pavilion’s master, the Great Shopkeeper, was in seclusion.
But seven days ago, Wei Tushen suddenly went mad in the Profound Immortal Pavilion, killing several Qi Cultivating cultivators who were buying magic tools in the pavilion, then rushed out of the pavilion, trying to attack outsiders but was killed on the spot by a Foundation Establishment cultivator passing by.
“Did the shopkeeper see the person who killed Wei Tushen?” Han Yi suddenly raised his eyebrows.
“No, that person must have killed Wei Tushen in self-defense, and after discovering that he was the shopkeeper of the Profound Immortal Pavilion, hurried away.”
“Of course, this is just my conjecture.”
The shopkeeper, an old man, laughed and shook his head.
“Who could have thought, Elder Zhuo was usually kind to others, and even gave me some special products from Shu State when the business opened. 1 never expected him to disappear, while my friend Wei suddenly went mad, fierce like an evil beast, causing a disaster. It’s really hard to predict the world.”
This time, Han Yi was really out of ideas. He could only fiercely recount how he had bought a fake magic tool in the Profound Immortal Pavilion, and then directly booked a room in the Myriad Immortals Inn.
He wasn’t worried about damaging the reputation of the Profound Immortal Pavilion so easily. If it were that simple, the Profound Immortal Pavilion would have long been eliminated.
Late at night.
A black figure quietly jumped out of the window of the Myriad Immortals Inn and completely blended in with the wind without making a sound.
This figure was naturally Han Yi. Although he did not have his face covered, his body shape had changed, turning into a black-faced man of medium stature. This man was, astonishingly, an impression of Zheng Hai.
Han Yi found that using acquaintances as templates for disguises came more naturally.
In less than two breaths, he had already appeared on the side of the Profound Immortal Pavilion. Then, a dagger appeared in his hand.
This dagger was golden in color, with two characters carved on the side.
Slayer Demon.
This was a lower-grade magic treasure obtained from the Heavenly Secret Stele. It was Han Yi’s second magic treasure, aside from the Seven-Star Kunwu Sword: the Slayer Demon Dagger.
In terms of sharpness, this magic treasure was even more so than the Seven-Star Kunwu Sword. Furthermore, during an experiment half a year ago, Han Yi discovered that this dagger could destroy most of the spiritual energy, such as Array Formations, protective barriers formed by spiritual talismans, defensive magic skills, etc.
From its name, Han Yi also inferred that this lower-grade magic treasure had a restraining effect on the Heavenly Demons or the nearly extinct Demon Clan in the Yu Heng World.
Sharp, spirit-breaking, and Demon Slayer – these were the characteristics of this dagger.
With just a gentle swipe of the golden dagger, the Array Formation sealing the Profound Immortal Pavilion was cut open, creating a gap only a meter long, as if a zipper had been suddenly opened on the Spirit Array.
The Spirit Array flickered, instantly repairing itself. But before it could fully repair, Han Yi had already entered the Array Formation.
The Profound Immortal Pavilion in Jinyun Immortal City also had four floors. Han Yi first went to the third floor, carefully searching, eventually only finding a few puddles of bloodstains. Apart from that, the entire third floor was slightly messy, indicating that after Wei Tushen went mad, other inner disciples must have evacuated in a hurry.
When Zhuo Qun came to Jinyun Immortal City to establish a branch of the Profound Immortal Pavilion, he brought not only Wei Tushen but also seven or eight inner disciples. Those inner disciples should still be stationed at the back of the Profound Immortal Pavilion. However, Han Yi didn’t want to contact them too soon, especially as a Xuandan Sect elder.
It wasn’t that he had conspiracy theories, but rather being cautious couldn’t hurt, in case someone was watching them.
Han Yi’s plan was to investigate first, then decide whether or not to contact the other disciples based on the situation.
After checking the third floor, Han Yi went up. In the hallway between the third and fourth floors, he found a hidden compartment and took out a stack of files from it.
This hidden compartment was only known to the elders and above of the Profound Immortal Pavilion. Han Yi’s main purpose tonight was this hidden compartment.
Clues at the scene had already been found by the Daqian Six Ministries cultivators who sealed the Profound Immortal Pavilion.
However.
This hidden compartment was specially set up by the Profound Immortal Pavilion, and only Foundation Establishment elders knew about it. Moreover, the hidden compartment was made of special materials. Even with divine sense, it couldn’t be detected at all.
The things in the hidden compartment were required to be only paper files, to avoid putting in magic tools or jade plates, jade butterflies, and other spirit energy items that could be detected by special instruments.
Before Han Yi could even open the files, on top of the files, there was a piece of paper with four characters written hastily.
“Yuan Beast, Que Chen!”
