“Little Wang, get your king here. I want to make another deal with him!” A voice came from a cave in the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch.

“Miss Yin, His Highness is in seclusion forging. If there’s nothing important, no one can disturb him.” Wang Xin’s voice sounded.

“Forging, forging, is there no end to forging?” Yin Yuzhu said unhappily. “Is this how you treat your great-grandmother? Little Wang, let me tell you, I know your Great Qin’s ancestors. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll complain about you?”

“No…” Wang Xin said weakly. “He’s been dead for hundreds of years…”

Yin Yuzhu: “…”

She sat on the edge of the bed, fuming.

“Little Wang, do you want to get stronger?” Yin Yuzhu rolled her eyes and looked at Wang Xin.

“Yes, I do.” Wang Xin said honestly. “My cultivation has been improving very quickly recently. It shouldn’t be long before I can break through to the first rank of the Martial Dao.”

Wang Xin didn’t know why, but when he faced Yin Yuzhu, he really wanted to say a few more words. This was completely opposite from his normal personality.

“Is a first-rank martial artist very strong?” Yin Yuzhu said disdainfully. “I’m a first-rank martial artist, but I was still imprisoned.”

Yin Yuzhu said resentfully. “If I was stronger and could hang that Zhou brat up and beat him up, would you still dare to treat me like this?”

“His Highness is very strong. Even Great Demons are not his match,” Wang Xin said. “If I could have one percent of his strength, I would be satisfied.”

“To think you’re so big-sized,” Yin Yuzhu said disdainfully. “Is that all you’ve got?

......

“Little Wang, I have a cultivation technique that can make you stronger quickly. Do you want to learn it?” Yin Yuzhu’s voice was filled with temptation.

Wang Xin was stunned and nodded subconsciously.

“If you want to learn, you have to promise me one thing,” Yin Yuzhu continued.

“What is it?” Wang Xin asked blankly.

“I want to walk around. It’s so stuffy in this room,” Yin Yuzhu said. “If you’re worried, you can follow me.”

“This…” A conflicted expression appeared on Wang Xin’s face.

“I’m not a bad person. Don’t you trust me?” Yin Yuzhu said.

“It’s not that. His Highness instructed me—”

“His Highness, His Highness, are you a man? You keep talking about His Highness. Don’t you have any opinions of your own?” Yin Yuzhu said angrily. “I really misjudged you!”

Wang Xin’s face flushed red. As a masculine man who had almost never interacted with women, how could he withstand such provocation?!

“That’s not true! I’ll allow it!” Wang Xin said loudly. “Don’t you just want to walk around? Where do you want to go? I’ll accompany you!”

The corners of Yin Yuzhu’s mouth curled up slightly, and a sly look flashed across her eyes.

…

When Zhou Shu walked out of the forging room, he immediately saw Xiao Jianghe waiting outside.

“You’re back.” Zhou Shu smiled in surprise. “The operation went well?”

Although he had the help of five Grand Craftsmen, it still took him five days to forge the Water Frost Sword.

Five days was enough for Xiao Jianghe to kill his way back and forth.

“I didn’t disappoint you!” Xiao Jianghe cupped his hands. “Your Highness, we followed your instructions and successfully killed the rat demons. We obtained countless supplies.

“I’ve already handed the supplies to Deputy Pavilion Master Shi for inventory. Those rat demons were also killed.”

Xiao Jianghe said calmly, “I did some preparatory measures. No one should discover that we did it in a short period of time.”

“I trust you to do your job.” Zhou Shu patted Xiao Jianghe’s shoulder and asked, “How are our casualties?”

“A dozen soldiers died, and some suffered minor injuries,” Xiao Jianghe said. He said it casually, but this battle was actually not easy.

Only a dozen people had died, which was already a remarkable result.

“Everyone did a good job,” Zhou Shu said. “Go and get some Essence Cleansing Pill from Deputy Pavilion Master Shi. You’ll be rewarded based on your contributions.”

“Yes,” Xiao Jianghe said. “Your Highness, I also found some human remains in the rat demon’s nest.”

This was the reason why Xiao Jianghe had been waiting for Zhou Shu outside the forging room.

He took something from the Cosmic Bangle on his wrist. “This is what I found on the human remains. Please take a look, Your Highness.”

Xiao Jianghe held the thing with both hands and handed it to Zhou Shu.

Zhou Shu casually took it. It was a palm-sized square bronze plate. It looked a little like the Divine Constable Bureau’s waist token, but it was heavier than the waist token, and the patterns on it were more detailed and complicated.

Zhou Shu held it in his hand and carefully observed it. After a moment, he suddenly realized that the patterns on the square bronze plate seemed to form several words.

“This is…?” Zhou Shu looked surprised. He finally recognized the words that formed the pattern on the square bronze plate. He couldn’t help but read them softly, “Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain?”

“Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain? What does that mean?” Xiao Jianghe was puzzled.

When he’d gotten the square bronze medal, he had only instinctively thought it might be valuable, but he didn’t know exactly what it would do.

He had also carefully observed it, but he couldn’t tell that there were words on it!

As expected of His Highness.

“I don’t know either.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “This bronze plate should be an identity token. Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, it might be a sect or the name of a place…”

Zhou Shu’s heart skipped a beat. Unfortunately, ever since the Longevity Sword had blocked the first-rank demonic beasts, it had been in hibernation, and Elder Shi didn’t appear.

Speaking of which, although Yin Yuzhu claimed to have lived for more than a thousand years, she was nothing compared to the Longevity Sword, Shi Changsheng.

The Longevity Sword, Shi Changsheng, was an old monster who had lived for countless years. This square bronze plate seemed to mean something, and he would probably be the only one who could recognize it.

“Did you find anything else?” Zhou Shu asked as he continued to study the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain bronze plate.

“There’s nothing else.” Xiao Jianghe shook his head.

Click—

Before Xiao Jianghe could finish speaking, the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain bronze plate in Zhou Shu’s hand suddenly let out a crisp crack.

Xiao Jianghe looked over and saw that Zhou Shu was also surprised.

The Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain bronze plate actually split into two from the middle!

“Don’t look at me. I didn’t break it,” Zhou Shu said casually. He really didn’t do anything to the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain bronze plate!

It was because he had touched some mechanism that caused it to split apart.

“Such a heavy bronze plate was actually hollow.” Zhou Shu raised the two halves of the bronze plate. Between them was a hollow space!

There was a white cloth stuffed into the small space inside.

Zhou Shu reached out and pulled out the cloth.

The rolled-up cloth was actually three-feet-square big when opened.

It was covered in black lines, and it was marked in red on some parts.

“This is a map?” Zhou Shu was surprised. “Is this a map to the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain?”

The map on the white cloth looked very detailed, but Zhou Shu recognized every word on it. But when combined, he had never heard of it.

Even when he was on the Ten Nations Continent, Zhou Shu didn’t know much about the places in the Ten Nations, let alone the places marked on the map.

Zhou Shu looked up at Xiao Jianghe. Xiao Jianghe was from the Ten Nations and was knowledgeable. He should know more about the Ten Nations Continents than him.

Xiao Jianghe shook his head. He couldn’t recognize where this map was either.

“Have Great General Meng and the others returned? Aren’t they mapping the surrounding terrain? Let them all come and take a look. They might recognize where this place is.”

Zhou Shu rubbed his chin and pondered. “If this place isn’t far away, we can explore it. This Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain sounds like it’s very valuable.”
