Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 365: Chapter 363: Waiting for a Rabbit by a Tree Stump

At this moment in the Imperial Capital of the Dongling Kingdom, Su Han had already changed into black clothes.

A conical hat was placed on his head, his entire body shrouded by magic elements, making his face indiscernible to anyone below the Dragon Emperor Realm.

In front of him stood a massive pavilion, towering over a dozen stories high, seemingly conjured from spiritual power, floating above were three large characters — Nine Heavens Tower!

Nine Heavens Tower, much like Myriad Treasures Trading House, had many branches.

However, Nine Heavens Tower was not a trading house, and its branches were at minimum located within the Imperial Capital.

Nine Heavens Tower was equivalent to a sect, yet it was not a sect, specializing in the business of information trading and assassin hires.

It was said that any news across the Dragon Martial Continent, Nine Heavens Tower would be the first to know, and there was no news on the entire continent that Nine Heavens Tower was unaware of.

This legend might be somewhat exaggerated, but it also highlighted the formidable capabilities of Nine Heavens Tower.

Rumors said that the influence and foundation of Nine Heavens Tower could completely contend with the Top Ten Super Sects, yet Nine Heavens Tower always kept a very low profile, even more so than Myriad Treasures Trading House, and its true capabilities were unknown to anyone.

Su Han pondered for a moment and then stepped directly into the Nine Heavens Tower.

“Welcome to Nine Heavens Tower.”

At the entrance of the Nine Heavens Tower stood a young man.

With a smile on his face, the young man slightly cupped his hands towards Su Han and then asked, “I wonder if the guest is here to trade information or to hire an assassin?”

“Information,” Su Han said.

“Please come in, guest.”

The young man led Su Han into the grand hall of the Nine Heavens Tower. There were quite a few people inside, each busy with their own affairs, paying no mind to each other. There were also quite a few people dressed in black like Su Han, wearing conical hats, so Su Han did not stand out.

“What information would the guest like to purchase?” asked the young man.

Su Han pondered for a moment and said, “I want a business route of the Sect of the Battle God, the best if it’s from the Dragon Pill Realm.”

The Sect of the Battle God, though a Super Sect, also had its own businesses to manage. Otherwise, what would support the entire sect and its countless disciples?

This business might not compare to Myriad Treasures Pavilion, but with the Sect of the Battle God as its backing, and all its escorts being disciples sent out for real-world experience, nobody dared to entertain any crooked ideas.

“Sect of the Battle God?”

The young man’s breathing hitched when he heard the words “Sect of the Battle God.”

“What, can’t it be purchased?” Su Han frowned slightly.

“No, no, no, there’s nothing in all of Dragon Martial Continent that Nine Heavens Tower can’t buy.”

The young man showed a confident smile and then led Su Han to the second floor.

There were noticeably fewer people on the second floor, but the two did not stop there and continued onward until they reached the fifth floor.

In the fifth floor, there were several private rooms; they entered one of these rooms, and the young man brought out a crystal stone.

He lightly tapped on the crystal stone, and it immediately projected a silver screen, listing rows of text.

“These are all the business routes of the Sect of the Battle God.”

The young man smiled and then said, “If the guest has a preferred route, you can inform me. I will quote you a price, and if you are satisfied, I will then give you the precise route, along with the names, cultivation bases, and all detailed information of the escorts.”

“So many?”

Su Han glanced over, and the information stretched down the screen, numbering in the tens of thousands.

“The Sect of the Battle God, being one of the current great super sects, is naturally not deficient in its business routes,” the young man explained with a smile.

Su Han looked for a moment before pointing at one of the options, saying, “Let’s take this one.”

The route he chose passed right through the Dongling Kingdom and could lead directly to the headquarters of the Sect of the Battle God.

Of course, heading to the headquarters did not mean that this route went straight there; it had many branches leading to various areas.

“Let me check.”

The young man tapped repeatedly on the crystal stone as if there was an invisible screen only he could see.

Moments later, the young man withdrew his gaze and smiled, saying, “The information for this route costs one hundred thousand spirit stones.”

“That expensive?”

Su Han frowned deeply, thinking it was just a route and he had assumed it would only cost a few thousand spirit stones, ten thousand at most.

“My dear guest, if it were any other sect, even a first-class sect, it would only require a few thousand spirit stones, but super sects are fundamentally different,” said the young man.

Su Han contemplated briefly, then waved his hand and immediately produced a space ring.

“There are one hundred thousand spirit stones in here, take a look.”

The young man took the space ring, checked it, and then nodded.

“Whoosh!”

The invisible screen in front of him changed at that moment, with other routes disappearing, leaving only the selected one.

“My dear guest, let me give you a piece of advice. While you might reap great benefits from these commercial routes, remember that the opponent is the Sect of the Battle God. If you’re thinking of tampering with them, make sure you have the strength to withstand the wrath of a super sect,” the young man kindly cautioned.

Su Han ignored him, memorized the route, and then left the Nine Heavens Tower.

…

Half a month later, Su Han had already left the Dongling Kingdom.

At this moment, he was sitting on top of a large tree.

The leaves of the tree had completely withered, with heavy snow still falling from the sky and a layer of white frost covering the ground.

At a glance, the world around him had turned completely white.

Over half a month, Su Han had carefully observed this snow and ultimately confirmed that it did not melt at all.

His gaze towards the snow was as if he was looking at a fierce figure, even though Su Han had tried to blast the snow away, it ultimately did not turn to nothingness.

This snow was very bizarre!

“Guard Team Captain Song Qi, cultivation base at the Peak of the Dragon Pill Realm, with fifty guards, the lowest at the Dragon Blood Realm, three at the Dragon Pill Realm, heading to Snow Moon City, transporting goods…one million spirit stones!”

Su Han calmly sat on the tree, as this piece of minor route information surfaced in his mind.

What he had purchased at the Nine Heavens Tower was a complete main route, which contained thousands of minor routes. At this moment, Su Han was waiting for one of these minor routes.

“This Sect of the Battle God really is confident!”

Su Han muttered, “Just three at the Dragon Pill Realm and over ten at the Dragon Spirit Realm, the rest all at the Dragon Blood Realm… Such cultivation levels could be completely swept away by one at the Dragon God Realm, yet the Sect of the Battle God is transporting one million low-grade spirit stones.”

Su Han was right; ordinary sects really wouldn’t dare do this, only super sects had such confidence.

Should someone actually dare to rob them, just showing the token of the Sect of the Battle God would probably make the robbers flee like a bereaved dog.

The majesty of a super sect is inviolable!
