Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "That's true. Once you leave the barren land of Qushan, everything you see and hear is like a newly unfolding scroll, refreshing your senses."
"Hey, Master, look, there's wine!" Bai Li's eyes, as clear as autumn water, lit up instantly as she spotted the signboard of a floating palace in the distance. "Immortal's Drunkenness? That's quite an arrogant name."
Arriving in a new environment, many things seemed shrouded in mystery for Chen Xuan.
Restaurants are places of enjoyment, and many wandering cultivators will step into them when they come here. Firstly, they will rest for a while, like tired birds finding a warm nest; secondly, they will inquire about some useful information, just like searching for a bright pearl in the ocean of knowledge.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan smiled and said loudly, "Let's go and try the true spirit wine and immortal brew of the cultivation world. It must be a nectar of the highest order."
"Yay!" Bai Li cheered, her voice echoing like a clear silver bell in the air. She immediately steered the dilapidated flying boat beneath her feet, speeding towards the "Immortal's Drunkenness" sign like an arrow released from a bow.
However, before even entering the shop, Chen Xuan and his companion noticed the sign hanging at the entrance. Upon seeing that the shop only accepted spirit liquid currency, Bai Li pouted and said discontentedly, "Master, what should we do? We don't have any spirit liquid."
Chen Xuan frowned slightly. Before leaving Qushan, he thought that with so many spirit grains in hand, he could travel the world freely. He never expected that he would have already learned a profound lesson before even arriving in Qingtian County.
Just as the two were feeling completely lost and confused, a disheveled old man in the distance laughed loudly and called out to Chen Xuan and his companion, "Fellow Daoist, would you like to buy information? The price is reasonable, and there's no deception. If you're new to Dead Sea City, this information will definitely be of great help and can save you a lot of time."
The old man was only at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. He wore a shabby yellow robe, his mustache resembled two crescent moons, his slanted eyes looked like those of a cunning fox, and his cheekbones protruded high. He did not look like a kind person at all.
Chen Xuan and Bai Li turned around upon hearing the sound, their gazes fixed on the source of the noise.
At this moment, the old man had already floated down to their side. After landing, he first looked up at the signboard of "Immortal's Drunkenness," his eyes filled with longing, as if he were gazing at a priceless treasure. Then, he greedily inhaled the aroma of wine wafting from the shop, his expression exaggerated to the extreme, "Good stuff! The Drunken Dragon Saliva has been opened again, the fragrance is simply irresistible."
"Senior, how much does your so-called information cost?" Chen Xuan pondered to himself. If it could really save time, he wouldn't mind this seemingly casual sales pitch.
Bai Li stared intently at the old man, her face full of vigilance. She telepathically communicated with Chen Xuan, reminding him to be extra careful.
"Hahaha, fellow Daoist, it's no trouble at all." As soon as the old man heard that a "fat sheep" had taken the bait, he instantly put on a dignified and otherworldly appearance. Unfortunately, no matter how he pretended, his sleazy and slovenly face could not hide his true nature.
Chen Xuan did not take this to heart.
“Young friend, I have lived in Dead Sea City for a full thirty years. It is no exaggeration to say that I have been to every corner of Dead Sea City. I know every geisha in every pleasure house as beautiful as a flower, every wine in every house as exquisite as nectar, and every weapon shop that doesn’t rip people off.”
After boasting for a while, the old man noticed that Chen Xuan's expression didn't change much, so he quickly held up one finger and said with a smile, "I only charge one or two ounces of Origin Liquid for each piece of information. Very cheap, young friend."
Chen Xuan was extremely intelligent and immediately realized that the old man was trying to rip him off.
However, Chen Xuan had no idea how much this intelligence should be worth.
"Origin Liquid?" Chen Xuan frowned slightly and murmured, as if pondering the value of this mysterious substance.
