Chapter 306
Intelligence on Ultimate Immortals
Hand gracefully over her mouth, Huai Beiya giggled. “Our company has branches all over Third Continent. We have details on everyone, but we couldn’t find out what your hometown is. Therefore, we theorised you came from Moyun Mountains as it is the only location we don’t have a branch at. Our Primordial Infant Realm scouts entered Forbidden Mountain and verified our speculation. With that said, we were surprised to learn how famous you were there.”
Lie Shang, rank thirty-nine, unknown origins.
Ximen Buxing, rank forty, Xie Bulao’s disciple, unorthodox sect’s Golden Boy and Jade Girl’s Golden Boy.
Cheng Yan, rank fifty, unknown origins.
Xiang Nan, rank seventy-six, unknown origins.
Lan Ling’er, rank eighty-one, unknown origins.
“You don’t have the origins, schools and weapons of numerous people. Your company wasn’t able to dig up anything, I assume?” Mu Yu asked, flummoxed as to why his seniors’ profiles were incomplete.
“We are still researching some ultimate immortals, but I believe we will complete their profiles soon.”
Within less than ten days of the rankings’ publication, Million Company already completed 80% of the profiles. Unlike in Mu Yu’s scenario, his seniors didn’t receive their spiritual tattoos with others around, so their identities were still shrouded in mystery. Judging from the company’s efficiency, it was only a matter of time before his seniors’ identities were revealed.
“Did you provide this information to all of the ranked individuals?” Mu Yu inquired.
“Of course not. We are a business. Information is paramount for businesses. ‘Information is wealth’ is our principle. We don’t give away free information to anyone. If an ultimate immortal found out they could purchase it from us, we would need to raise the price.”
“I swear I only ever wanted to be a modest, low-profile exemplary youth.”
“Let me see the piece of jade. Whoever created the formation for the jade piece knows their stuff,” said Ku Mu. He checked both sides of the jade piece then tossed it back. “Million Company has crossed the line this time. They sought the help of Formation Sect to manufacture the jade piece.”
“Is there something special about it?”
“And this is why you should’ve listened to me and studied formations properly. What a waste of all my knowledge.”
“What do you mean? You know how many times my formation knowledge saved me at Second Heaven?!”
“Your knowledge is embarrassing. You’re not even qualified to carry Formation Sect’s formation casters’ shoes.”
Formation casters were the worst opponents to go up against if one didn’t have a cultivation advantage. That being said, their biggest weakness was they were punching bags if they couldn’t seize victory quickly.
“What about you? How profound is your knowledge on formations?”
“Me? I could lead all of them by the nose at once. Only one of their members would worry me. There’s a formation masked in the piece of jade. If you’re as astute as you think you are, you’d notice the caster is quite good at their craft.”
Mu Yu flipped and turned the jade piece round and round.
“There’s no free lunch! Tell me again when you paid your dues? Formations are found en masse in the world of cultivation. The crest on your hand is Third Heaven Palace’s formation; it’s used to identify you.”
“I’ll learn. I’ll learn!” Mu Yu pinched his chin and grinned. “There’s a forest nearby called Setting Sun Fiend Forest. I want to pay it a visit.”
