After the rebirth of the master's wife who was hated by everyone, all of them were burned to de

The stall owner said, "This immortal has a good eye. This isn't just any cinnabar you'll find on the market. I heard it was dug out from a new spiritual vein. This is my first batch. Would you like to try it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jingyue quickly followed his master's wife's example and opened a box of cinnabar to smell it carefully, but he couldn't tell the difference. He then looked at the box in his master's wife's hand and asked, "Is there any difference?"

He didn't see the difference, maybe because his cultivation was too low.

"I want a box." Lin Xuxi took out a low-grade spirit stone and then took out another one, handed it over very generously, and asked, "Where is the spirit vein?"

"In the East Forest Sea." The stall owner took the two spirit stones with both hands and whispered, "Go west of the East Forest Sea. There are rocks everywhere, no trees or flowers. There's not much cinnabar mined there, so we just sell it all in the city."

"Thank you." Lin Xuxi collected the cinnabar and left.

Zhou Jingyue was stunned and hurriedly chased after her and asked, "Master's Wife, is there anything wrong with the cinnabar? Why did you suddenly want to buy that thing?"

Lin Xuxi was in a good mood, so she explained, "There are some differences."

Just one sentence made Zhou Jingyue overjoyed. He couldn't suppress the smile on his face and chased after him, laughing happily. He thought: Master's wife talked to him! That's great!

He can say one thing today and two things tomorrow, and if he keeps trying, his mistress will definitely forgive him!

The two came to the building complex in the center of Yudu.

There were people coming and going at the gate. It didn't look like a shop, but rather the residence of some high-ranking official in the human world.

There is one main door and two side doors, and you can enter from either side after entering.

Some are just coming in to do business, while others are leaving after getting good things.

"Master's Wife, let's go meet Tao Fengzhi. I am familiar with him. We can ask for a place to stay in Jinbao Pavilion so that it will be convenient for you to buy anything." Zhou Jingyue suggested.

Lin Xuxi did not answer. She wanted to go directly to her old boss, get the things, and then go back as soon as possible.

"This must be Master Lin, right?" A woman in her early thirties, richly dressed, walked over and stopped in front of the woman. She bowed slightly and smiled, "Sorry for the wait."

"Yeah." Lin Xuxi nodded and asked, "But is it the old boss who's here to invite you?"

"Yes." The woman smiled and led people inside.

Zhou Jingyue felt a little awkward following behind. He thought his mistress was only at the Treasure Pavilion to buy some magical instruments and elixirs. He could just say hello to Tao Fengzhi and show himself to be of some use.

Unexpectedly, the master's wife knew the old boss directly.

Lin Xuxi was invited to a small attic, and Zhou Jingyue was stopped outside.

"Master's wife, I'll be waiting for you outside. I'll always be here." Zhou Jingyue tiptoed to look inside, and only put away his smile when the door was closed.

"Old boss."

As soon as Lin Xuxi entered the small attic, she smelled an unusual medicinal fragrance. Then she looked at the old boss sitting on the chair, looking very old.

The smell of medicine came from him.

After reaching the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, Lin Xuxi could distinguish the specific effects of medicinal flavors. This flavor should be a life-extending medicine.

But the leader did not mention that the old boss was dying.

"Master Lin, cough, cough—" The old boss forced himself to stand up with the help of the armrest, invited someone to sit next to him, and said in a hoarse voice: "I am useless, alas."

"Old boss, what's going on?" Lin Xuxi sat down before he could see the other party's specific situation.

His face was pale, his eyes cloudy. His breathing fluctuated greatly, so I was afraid it wasn't a natural death, but rather poisoning or some other cause. I couldn't make a hasty conclusion without a thorough investigation.

"The Xuan Lei Pagoda was stolen." After the old boss said this, he coughed twice, and his coughs were muddy.

Lin Xuxi: "What!?"

"It was stolen last night. The things in the small attic on the second floor were going to be auctioned in a few days. Except for the Xuan Lei Pagoda, everything else is fine." After saying this long paragraph, the old boss was almost out of breath.

"who is it?"

"I don't know."

The old boss took out a bodhi leaf and handed it to Lin Xuxi, explaining, "Only this thing will remain. We dare not publicize this matter. After all, such a thing has never happened in Jinbao Pavilion. Moreover, that person must be at least in the Spiritualization Stage, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to evade the numerous traps and steal the Mysterious Thunder Pagoda."

"The Black Thunder Pagoda itself is also a treasure." Lin Xuxi took the Bodhi leaf and smelled it. The smell was familiar. She was wondering where she had smelled it before, but was interrupted by a cough.

"Old boss, what happened to you?"

The old boss shook his head and said, "I don't know." His health was also strange. It began to decline gradually five years ago, and nothing he did was effective.

"Old boss, why don't you go to Xuanyu Sect? Ask the Sect Master to take a look."

"No need." If he really wanted to save him, the old boss could go to the sect leader. But he didn't want to. His Taoist partner had been dead for many years, and he was too lonely on his own.

If he died from this, that would be fine. He could go and accompany Jinjin. Now he was forcing himself to find the Xuanlei Pagoda and hand it over to the Sect Master in exchange for the Xuanyu Sect's protection.

After all, although Feng Zhi is good at business and thrives in the business world, he is only in the early stage of golden elixir cultivation. He hopes that Xuanyu Sect can help Feng Zhi and stabilize Jinbao Pavilion.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to find the Xuan Lei Pagoda. But... he never expected it to be stolen. Now he didn't know what to do.

Seeing that the old boss didn't seem to care about life or death, Lin Xuxi didn't dare to ask any more questions. The topic turned to the lost Xuan Lei Pagoda and asked, "Where did you lose it?"

"The attic. Even the Immortal Slaying Sword wasn't lost, only the Black Thunder Pagoda. This is truly suspicious. Furthermore, only the Sect Master knows that the Jinbao Pavilion has obtained the Black Thunder Pagoda." The old boss coughed a few times, regained his breath, and continued, "I won't be going up there. Master Lin, please do as you please."

"Thank you." Lin Xuxi nodded and went upstairs.

When Lin Xuxi went up to the second floor, she realized that her old boss really believed in her. The second floor was filled with magical instruments of level three or above. These things made anyone jealous.

The Xuan Lei Pagoda is special, usually placed in a glazed enclosure. It is said that the Xuan Lei hidden in the pagoda is the golden thunder hidden by a Mahayana cultivator when he was overcoming tribulations.

If people go in to strengthen their muscles and bones, if magic weapons go in, they can also be affected by the mysterious thunder.

"If the glass cover was not taken away but taken away directly, either he was well prepared or that person's cultivation level is also in the Mahayana stage." The second possibility is obviously not the case, that is, he was well prepared.

Only the Sect Master knew; even Zhou Jingyue, who had come with her, had no idea she was here for the Mysterious Thunder Pagoda. Yet, it was stolen the night before her arrival. How had the news leaked out?

Lin Xuxi looked down at the Bodhi leaf in her hand and fell into deep thought.

"Why hasn't Master's Wife come out yet?" Zhou Jingyue paced back and forth at the door.

"Jingyue."

Seeing that it was his good friend, Zhou Jingyue hurried forward and bowed, saying, "Fengzhi, long time no see."

"Yes, long time no see."

Tao Fengzhi returned the gift. Seeing his friend alone here, he asked with a strange smile, "Why is Jingyue wandering outside this little attic? Is there anything he wants?"

There were barriers and formations in the small attic, and no one could enter except him, his father, and the invited guests.

"I'm waiting for Master's Wife to come out." Zhou Jingyue hooked Tao Fengzhi's shoulders, pulled him to the willow tree nearby, and asked, "Fengzhi, I have something to ask of you."

"But it doesn't matter."
