The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

Chapter 181 Crossing the Storm, Purchasing Intelligence

After settling matters concerning the Free and Unfettered Sect, Lu Yao began his journey to the next world.

According to the information transmitted by the Haotian Pearl, the world Lu Yao is going to this time is the Fengyun World.

The saying "A golden carp is no ordinary fish; it transforms into a dragon when it encounters wind and clouds" runs through the entire world's storyline.

In Lu Yao's view, the world of Fengyun was no longer a simple martial arts world; even legendary mythical beasts like the Fire Qilin and the Azure Dragon had appeared, making it a true fantasy world.

The world of wind and clouds.

Lu Yao's figure appeared instantly outside a village.

"We need to figure out where the story is right now."

Lu Yao looked around a few times. He didn't know where he was. His most urgent task was to figure out whether the plot of the Fengyun World had started yet.

Based on the experience of the previous worlds, Lu Yao should have arrived at the very beginning of the story of the Fengyun world.

At this time, Mud Bodhisattva should still be telling Xiong Ba's fortune, trying to trick him into going to find Feng Yun.

Mud Bodhisattva is a man of real skill. The fact that he was attacked by the heavens for telling fortunes for others shows that his fortune-telling skills are not simple.

The saying "A golden carp is no ordinary fish; it will transform into a dragon once it encounters wind and clouds" seemed more like a description of Duan Lang to Lu Yao.

The key point is that this kid actually obtained two dragon essences later on and almost transformed into a dragon.

......

Lu Yao planned to go to the village to take a look and ask the villagers about the situation.

The sun had just risen in the sky, and a few drops of dew clung to the roadside grass and trees.

As Lu Yao approached the village, villagers carrying farm tools would occasionally emerge from the village and head towards the fields.

"Sir, I've gotten lost here. I don't know which direction the nearest town is."

Lu Yao stopped an elderly man with a deeply lined face and asked him for directions.

"Lost? Which direction is the nearest town? It's only half an hour's walk away."

The old man who was stopped by Lu Yao was taken aback, then pointed in a direction.

"Thank you, old man."

Lu Yao thanked the old man and then leaped towards the town.

The martial prowess in the world of Fengyun is not low, so Lu Yao had no intention of deliberately hiding it and directly used his lightness skill to travel.

Half an hour later.

Lu Yao walked into a bustling town and sat down in an inn.

"What would you like to eat, sir? We have everything you need in our shop."

After Lu Yao sat down, a waiter immediately came to him and said in a solicitous manner.

"I'll ask you a few questions. If you're satisfied, then it's yours."

Lu Yao smiled and took out five taels of silver and placed them on the table.

Money is still useful no matter where you are.

"Please ask, sir, and I will answer to the best of my knowledge."

The waiter's eyes lit up when he saw the silver on the table.

Do you know where the Leshan Giant Buddha is?

Below the Leshan Giant Buddha is the Lingyun Cave, where the Fire Qilin is located.

"Sir, this place is not far from the Leshan Giant Buddha. It only takes two days to get there by horseback."

The waiter hurriedly spoke to Lu Yao, his eyes never leaving the silver.

"Tell me about the World Society and the Peerless City."

After obtaining the location of the Leshan Giant Buddha, Lu Yao immediately inquired about the two strongest forces in the Central Plains.

In the world of Fengyun, martial arts are everything. As long as you are strong enough, you can become emperor. It is a world where martial arts reign supreme and heroes are judged by their martial prowess.

Even the dynasties in the world of Fengyun are equivalent to martial arts forces, only relatively more powerful.

"Sir, you've come to the right person. Wushuang City is a formidable force, as for the Tianxia Association? I have no idea about that."

The waiter's interest immediately rose when Wushuang City was mentioned, but he said he had never heard of the Tianxia Society.

Lu Yao's expression shifted slightly, and he immediately realized that the World Society was not well-known at the moment, and it was highly likely that Xiong Ba had not yet taken Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng as his disciples.

Xiong Ba's World Society only gradually grew stronger after he took in Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, so Mud Bodhisattva's prediction wasn't entirely wrong.

After asking a few more questions, Lu Yao handed the silver to the waiter.

Without delay, Lu Yao left the town, released the giant eagle from his primordial space, and rode it towards the Leshan Giant Buddha.

What would normally take two days on horseback only takes half a day with a giant eagle.

Half a day later.

Standing atop the Leshan Giant Buddha, Lu Yao gazed at the surging river before him, feeling utterly at peace.

Lu Yao leaped directly from the top of the Leshan Giant Buddha and landed steadily at its feet.

Soon Lu Yao discovered a cave beneath the Buddha statue.

"Lingyun Cave!"

Lu Yao stared at the dark cave entrance with a solemn expression.

Lu Yao could sense a burst of intense heat emanating from the Lingyun Cave, causing his true energy to become slightly agitated.

"I wonder how strong this fire qilin is."

Lu Yao was still unsure of the Grandmaster's position in the Fengyun World, so he dared not enter Lingyun Cave lightly.

"We can only try the Green Man King."

Nie Renwang was no weakling; he was a renowned master in the martial arts world. Yet, he still met his tragic end in Lingyun Cave.

If Lu Yao can't even beat Nie Renwang, then entering Lingyun Cave would just be suicide.

With that thought in mind, Lu Yao rode the giant eagle and left the Leshan Giant Buddha.

Half a month later.

Lu Yao looked at the brothel in front of him with a strange expression.

The brothel was tall and magnificent, with its vermilion doors wide open and a string of lanterns hanging on either side.

However, it was daytime, and the brothel was very deserted.

But Lu Yao didn't care at all and walked straight in.

"Oh dear, we have a guest."

A middle-aged woman dressed in flamboyant attire swayed her slender waist and approached Lu Yao with a small, bright red flower fan in her hand.

"The guests have arrived a bit early today. The girls are all resting. Of course, there's a different price during the day, so you'll have to pay extra."

The woman glanced at Lu Yao with seductive eyes a few times, and said with a smile.

"I'm looking for Miss Ruyan."

Lu Yao didn't come to the brothel for fun; he directly took out ten taels of gold and threw it to the woman in front of him.

"Ruyan? She's not seeing guests today. How about I find you another girl?"

The woman was taken aback by Lu Yao's words and looked at the gold in her hand with some hesitation before asking.

"I only want Ruyan."

Lu Yao frowned and took out another ten taels of gold.

The young lady named Ruyan in this brothel is from the intelligence agency Baixiaolou. Lu Yao only learned about this place after making many inquiries, and he guessed that this brothel was also owned by Baixiaolou.

"Please follow me, sir."

The woman hesitated for a moment. Seeing Lu Yao's wealth and generosity, she was unsure about his background. Someone who could casually give away twenty taels of gold was obviously there to buy information.

However, the higher-ups of Baixiaolou were present at this time, and Ruyan was also reporting the situation to them. It was not appropriate for them to receive guests, but Baixiaolou made its living by selling information, and they couldn't just let the money slip by.

After leading Lu Yao to a room, the woman asked him to wait a moment before leaving.

"interesting."

Lu Yao picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, and smiled gently.
