Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

”Mountain View Building’s master wants to meet me?”

Chu Xiu was slightly taken aback. Although Mountain View Building was a secret organization, it operated such a huge business that its network must be extremely vast, possibly even having intricate connections with the three Celestial Kings.

Chu Xiu even had a vague feeling that Mountain View Building might be stronger than the four major families!

The ruler of Mountain View Building must definitely be among the few at the pinnacle of power in Huaxia.

Such a person actually wants to meet him voluntarily?

However, Chu Xiu’s thoughts only flickered slightly, and he calmly nodded: ”No problem.”

Considering his current strength and importance, it’s not surprising that Mountain View Building’s master would be interested in him.

The person in charge bowed slightly and said, ”Please follow me, sir.”

The person in charge led Chu Xiu all the way to the top floor of Mountain View Building, where, upon opening the door, six people were already seated inside.

Given such a large number of individuals, Chu Xiu wasn’t surprised; in Data Abyss City, a moment’s notice was enough to summon those needed.

He looked up, noticing the six people’s peculiar forms. Sitting in the main chair was a Daoist with an ethereal demeanor, slightly protruding forehead sides. Beside the Daoist were two creatures, one tiger-headed and humanoid, the other dragon-headed and humanoid. Further away, three others were distributed: one completely shrouded in shadows, face indistinguishable; a burly man; and a blonde woman.

Among them, Chu Xiu paid extra attention to the one hidden in shadows. In Abyss City, everything was data, revealing no real-world information, yet this person still maintained such an appearance, like a black hole devouring everything, giving nothing away.

”Young friend, finally you’ve come, please sit, please sit.”

As Chu Xiu entered, the Daoist in the main chair smiled and spoke.

Once Chu Xiu sat down, he continued, ”Let us introduce ourselves first. I am Mountain View Building’s master, known as Thousand-Faced Monarch among Daoists, and beside me are our building’s Cyan Dragon and White Tiger emissaries.”

Chu Xiu was slightly surprised, knowing Mountain View Building had four levels of assassins, and above the fourth level were the four emissaries.

Unexpectedly, these two should be Demigod level experts.

Thousand-Faced Monarch looked at the burly man and the blonde woman, with the burly man cheerfully saying, ”I am Andrew, and this is Olesya.”

”Red Federation people?” Chu Xiu asked.

Andrew smiled and said, ”Correct.”

Red Federation was a powerful nation neighboring Huaxia, full of experts, including a Celestial King overseeing it. Chu Xiu never expected to attract their attention.

”Are you associated with Giant Divine King?” Chu Xiu inquired.

Giant Divine King, the Celestial King overseeing Red Federation, renowned for combat prowess and an extraordinarily powerful physique, along with Sun King and Martial Extreme King, was acknowledged as one of the most talented Celestial Kings.

Unlike Huaxia, which had three Celestial Kings, the single Celestial King nation had almost all experts connected to that Celestial King in some way.

But Andrew merely smiled and said, ”We’ve met a few times.”

Chu Xiu knew they didn’t wish to reveal much; perhaps even Andrew and Olesya were false names, or they might not even be Red Federation people.

In an illusory world, reality and illusion are hard to distinguish.

Chu Xiu didn’t say more, focusing on the last person.

The person remained in darkness, briefly saying, ”Call me Wu.”

After speaking, he then said nothing more.

The atmosphere was somewhat silent until Thousand-Faced Monarch spoke, ”This friend here is the one who issued the task you previously received.”

Chu Xiu was startled, realizing his delayed recognition; he indeed accepted a task related to God of Pain’s intelligence.

Initially thought to have been issued by an organization like the Investigation Bureau, he unexpectedly found it was a peculiar individual, whose origins were unknown yet dared to explore the truth of the Outer Realm Demon.

Mountain View Building’s master continued, ”Alright, young friend, time is precious, let us not beat around the bush.”

”The sole purpose of our gathering is to hope for the acquisition of the [Anchor Point] in your possession.”

”Oh?” Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows.

It’s been over two years since he passed the Talent Trial; counting those given to the Investigation Bureau, Chu Xiu still had a total of five [Anchor Points].

Despite the small quantity, they were basically all the Anchor Points dispersed outside currently, besides him and perhaps the Investigation Bureau possessing a few.

Thousand-Faced Monarch laughed and said, ”Please be assured, young friend, we would naturally offer a price far above the market value in exchange for the Anchor Points.”

Chu Xiu said, ”Sir, you jest. In the current situation, I doubt you are uninformed; no Anchor Point can be wasted.”

Thousand-Faced Monarch asked, ”Are you referring to your agreement for a duel with the Divine Envoy?”

Chu Xiu replied, ”Sir, you seem well-informed.”

Thousand-Faced Monarch smiled and said, ”Thus, it would be mutually beneficial; by obtaining the Anchor Points, we naturally would assist young friend in defending civilization. With our strength, we should be qualified to be young friend’s allies, right?”

”Help me resist enemies?”

Thousand-Faced Monarch’s words amused Chu Xiu somewhat.

Now claiming several powerful demigods want to voluntarily help him resist enemies, a feat he couldn’t achieve even with substantial expenses?

Swindling fools?

Chu Xiu’s expression remained unchanged, simply saying, ”If you truly intend so, wouldn’t it be better to apply with the Investigation Bureau? With your abilities, surely they’d not refuse.”

Mountain View Building’s master seemed to anticipate his response, chuckling and saying, ”You’ve placed your trust in the Investigation Bureau, young friend; you’re overly trusting of the government.”
