Li Chengfeng and the others came out of the capital governor's office. He smiled at Liu Sumei. "Why did you come to the Divine Capital to lodge a complaint?"
Liu Sumei smiled apologetically. "I wanted to catch Xu Tao and bring him to the capital. I didn't expect him to escape punishment …"
Li Chengfeng was curious. "Even you can't find him?"
Liu Sumei's ability to turn back time to prove Grand Senior Brother's guilt had left a deep impression on him. He felt that Liu Sumei was omnipotent.
Liu Sumei shook her head. "I once used a spell to search for Xu Tao's whereabouts but all I saw was a tainted black shadow. I suspect … he might have been infected by the Hades King.
If that's the case, he can't be used as a witness even if we catch him. I suspect the case will not be accepted and will be transferred to the Divine Sect. "
Li Chengfeng was confused. "Why would it be transferred to the Divine Sect?"
Liu Sumei explained, "Because once Xu Tao is infected, he will no longer be a mortal. The entire case will be attributed to a cultivator and the Imperial Court will naturally pass the case to Cosmos God Sect."
Chengfeng was speechless, he knew that the cultivation world and the government had always minded their own business. Whenever a big case occurred in the cultivation world, and it did not involve the government, if the sect could not resolve it internally, it would be reported to the Cosmos God Cult, and the Cosmos God Cult would be responsible for the resolution.
This was one of the reasons Cosmos God Sect had a high status.
However, if Xu Tao was really infected and the case was pushed to Cosmos God Sect, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Because the main sect in this matter was the Spiritual Mountain Sect. If the Cosmos God Cult handled this matter, it would be equivalent to giving the Cosmos God Cult a reason to meddle in the affairs of the Spiritual Mountain Sect. At that time … Li Chengfeng would become a sinner of the Spiritual Mountain Sect.
Li Chengfeng quickly made up his mind. He must not let Cosmos God Sect be the scapegoat for this case!
But what should he think of?
Xu Tao, where is he now?
The drumming had died down but the people's gossipy emotions did not dissipate for a long time. Even the shocking case of Taiyang City's Crown Prince being attacked was diluted.
Grand Senior Sister found Li Chengfeng and glared at him. She said coldly, "Do you know what you're doing?"
Li Chengfeng did not avoid her this time because he had his reasons. He stared at her and sneered, "Aren't I helping you?
I'll help you stir up the water even more! "
Grand Senior Sister was infuriated, but her expression remained indifferent, only colder. "No!
You are courting death!
This was the Divine Capital, not Mount Numinous!
It's not a place you can jump into! "
Zhao Feiyue also looked at Li Chengfeng worriedly. She did not say anything, but silently stood behind Li Chengfeng, expressing her stance.
Liu Sumei sensed the tension in the air. "Are you here for the World Grand Tournament?" Li Chengfeng nodded. "You're here for the tournament?"
Li Chengfeng nodded. Liu Sumei smiled. "Then hurry up and register. Don't miss the time."
There were still at least ten days before the deadline, but Liu Sumei was obviously trying to help Li Chengfeng out. He nodded and bowed. "Grand Senior Sister, please bring us to the registration area. We don't want to waste time."
His words also expressed his willingness to submit to Grand Senior Sister. He acknowledged her actual leadership and expressed his willingness to look at the bigger picture.
Grand Senior Sister could not lose her temper, so she turned and left with a cold smile.
Li Chengfeng gave Xiaobao and Han Tianxing a look and both of them followed her. However, the registration area for cultivators participating in the World Grand Tournament was on the west side of the Divine Capital. It would take them almost a day to get there if they walked at the speed of an ordinary person.
They hailed a horse carriage. Just as they were about to board, someone shouted, "Please wait, Perfected Masters!"
They turned to see a registrar sprinting towards them. It was the registrar who helped with the case in the Capital Governor's office. He smiled apologetically at them, then turned to Liu Sumei, Li Chengfeng, Xiaobao and Han Tianxing. "Perfected Masters, please leave a place for us to stay. We'll start the trial in a few days so we can send you a summons. Please attend."
Liu Sumei smiled. "I live on Mystical Street. You can find me at the Beauty House there."
The registrar was stunned. The Beauty House?
Wasn't that where the world's number one courtesan, Beauty Yu, lived?
How did this Enlightened Being in front of her get together with her?
What he did not know was that not only was Liu Sumei a great cultivator, she was also a renowned courtesan.
The main reason was that when Liu Sumei's family was in decline, she was once sent to the Musical House to be an official prostitute, and was taught all kinds of entertainment skills all day long. Fortunately, before she was combed, she was rescued by her former benefactor, and finally escaped from the nightmare and the sea of bitterness.
However, this period of time and the past had affected Liu Sumei greatly. She sympathized with these prostitutes, and was not like most people, who were full of discrimination against prostitutes.
Prostitutes and prostitutes were two completely different things. Prostitutes used their beauty to entertain people, while prostitutes used their flesh to entertain people. Some famous prostitutes who had integrity and a bottom line were very clear about this point and insisted on it. However, they also knew that when the world praised them, they naturally treated them as famous prostitutes who could shake the world, but deep in their hearts, they still thought of them as wanton sluts who could sleep with anyone.
This registrar's reaction was the best example. Liu Sumei saw this and although she was unhappy, she was well-mannered and did not flare up. She only smiled and boarded the carriage with Little Bell.
The carriages then headed towards the west of the city.
Along the way, Chengfeng and the others took in the sights of the Divine Capital. They arrived at Divine Grade Street, which was on the west side of Mystical Street. This street was extremely long, and the entire street was filled with all sorts of items needed for cultivation.
The street was divided into three sections. The first section sold materials used to make magic treasures for cultivation. All the cultivation sects in the world had set up shops here.
"Come, come, come! High-grade spirit stones from the Spiritual Mountain! Ten taels of silver per kilogram! Discounts for higher quantities! Please come in and take a look!"
"Everyone, top-grade spiritual jade from the Nan 'an Mountain! It's a great spiritual jade that can be used to craft all sorts of magical treasures!"
"Southern Shark Skin! High-grade Southern Shark Skin! Excellent for sensing magical energy and comfortable to hold!"
"Perfected Tianyi said it's the best rushes in the world! It's perfect for drawing array patterns!"
The moment they entered the street, Li Chengfeng and the rest were stunned by the bustle and prosperity before them.
Although the Spiritual Mountain Sect also had a variety of cultivation materials and tools at the foot of the mountain, compared to this place, they were nothing. There was no comparison at all.
The shops in front of them stretched as far as the eye could see. The street in the middle was wide enough for six carriages to travel side by side. Some of the shops on both sides were as tall as five stories, with carved railings and painted rafters that looked like palaces. Even the shortest one was exquisitely built and decorated with all sorts of magical treasures.
Compared to the 'Gourmet Street', this street was a competition of all sorts of rare treasures, all sorts of unique architectural structures, and all sorts of magical designs. Li Chengfeng and the rest were dazzled just by looking at it from the outside. They could not stop exclaiming in awe along the way, showing the characteristics of inexperienced country bumpkins.
As they walked forward, they arrived at the area where all kinds of pills and ingredients were sold. The moment they entered, they smelled a strong herbal fragrance. The air seemed to be intoxicating. Li Chengfeng and the rest only took a whiff and they felt refreshed and refreshed. They were in high spirits and were in high spirits.
Once they left this area, they would reach the most important core area where magical treasures were sold. Here, they could see Cosmos God Sect patrolling every ten steps, their eyes scanning every passerby who entered and exited this area vigilantly.
Li Chengfeng looked at the 'Hundred Treasures', 'Immortal Pavilion', 'Ten Thousand Laws House', 'Heaven's Fortune', and other large merchant houses that specialized in selling magical treasures and talismans. Along the way, they were not as noisy as before. Their doors were open quietly without any advertisements or shouts. Occasionally, a few people walked in and out. The attendants at the door were humble and respectful, but at the same time, they exuded an air of arrogance that was unique to the servants of tycoons.
After passing through this street, Li Chengfeng finally arrived at the residential and registration area for cultivators, Mystical Street.
Under Grand Senior Sister's guidance, Li Chengfeng came to a place specially designed to handle and receive cultivators.
"This is called the Immortal Seeker, the place to register for the World Number One Tournament," Zhao Feiyue whispered from behind.
Zhao Feiyue whispered behind Li Chengfeng. In order not to attract attention, she carefully hid her face behind her veil.
Grand Senior Sister said to Li Chengfeng, Xiaobao and Han Tianxing, "Follow me!"
The Immortal Seeker looked no different from an ordinary government office except that the entrance was decorated with the Cosmos God Sect's Yin Yang Sun and Moon totem pillars. There were three doors at the entrance, the left for entry, the right for exit, and the middle door was tightly shut.
There was a long queue on the left side of the main entrance. At the entrance, there were two officials and two cultivators sitting at a table. One of the officials was in charge of checking everyone's customs clearance documents and referral documents. The other official was in charge of monitoring them to prevent anyone from taking advantage of bribes. The cultivator on the other side was in charge of stamping and issuing the examination documents. The last official was also in charge of monitoring them.
Grand Senior Sister swaggered to the entrance with Li Chengfeng and the rest, then threw their documents and referral documents to the front of the table.
One of the officials looked at them in dissatisfaction and growled, "Line up at the back!"
Grand Senior Sister scoffed. "These are Spiritual Mountain Sect disciples. They were late a few days ago, so we're here to make up for it today."
The official was displeased. "They don't have to line up if they're late?"
Grand Senior Sister smiled faintly. "Oh?
Are you sure? "
The official raised an eyebrow and was about to scold her when his assistant pulled him back and whispered something in his ear. The official's expression changed and he stood up to look at Li Chengfeng. "You're the Li Chengfeng who protected the Crown Prince and killed the Thundercloud Demon and Jue Wuji in one battle?"
