Chapter 1261: Chapter 526: Tianjing Bestows Treasure, Treasure Map Appears in the World [Subscription Request]_4

The reason he stayed in the family mountain gate to cultivate and did not go to the Great Zhou Kingdom was mainly due to concern that the Green Lotus Temple might be unwilling to accept their gambling loss and secretly make some moves against the Zhou Family.

Additionally, he currently has little need for anything from the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Except for needing Luo Qingni’s help to refine the Dragon Transformation Pill, there is no longer any compelling reason for him to go to the Great Zhou Kingdom.

As for gathering the materials to refine the Ancient Dust Pill, Lin Hongyu can completely manage it for him, or he could let the family cultivators handle it.

For this reason, he even allowed some family Foundation Establishment cultivators and Purple Mansion cultivators to travel to various countries to help him collect the materials.

If Luo Qingni concludes her seclusion and sees his message, she would find someone to inform him, so there’s no need for him to go wait in person.

"It’s rather strange; it’s been over a year since the gambling battle ended, yet the Green Lotus Temple truly has not made any moves. Could it be that they are truly intimidated by Baiyue True Person’s warning and dare not take any action? This doesn’t seem like the style of Taoist Yiyang and Master Qingwei!" freewёbnoνel.com

On this day, Zhou Chun went to the Central Peace Hall to check the family’s financial situation. After learning that everything was steadily improving, he couldn’t help but wonder.

He had originally prepared for Green Lotus Temple to use commercial methods to attack the Zhou Family from various places. Given the scale of Green Lotus Temple, doing this could still bring considerable trouble to the Zhou Family.

Moreover, this kind of attack, strictly speaking, is merely commercial competition. The Moon Wheel Sect surely wouldn’t interfere with how Green Lotus Temple conducts its business!

But what he hadn’t anticipated was that Green Lotus Temple did nothing, and even the Zhou Family shops within Lanzhou’s Hongya Marketplace were still operating normally without being deliberately targeted.

This unexpected situation instead gave Zhou Chun an uneasy feeling, as if it were the calm before the storm.

After pondering for a while, he issued a command for family elder-level high-ranking members to minimize outings in the coming years, or when they do go out, to discreetly conceal their true identities to avoid any unforeseen events.

For the current Zhou Family, as long as no high-level cultivators beyond the Purple Mansion Phase are accidentally lost, even if a few Foundation Establishment cultivators go missing or perish, the loss is still bearable.

Several months later, Zhou Mingde suddenly came personally to Zhou Chun’s abode to see him.

"Zhengchun, do you remember the treasure map we obtained from the Jiang Family’s secret vault after their demise?"

Inside his abode, as soon as Zhou Mingde saw Zhou Chun, he unexpectedly brought up an old matter from many years ago.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately reacted and, showing a surprised look, said to him, "Of course the junior remembers. Now that you’ve suddenly mentioned it, could it be that you’ve discovered another treasure map corresponding to it?"

He distinctly remembered that the Beast Skin Map Scroll was only half a map, a fragment, but the beast skin material was of a Third Order Demon Beast.

A treasure map made of such Demon Beast skin must be no ordinary treasure, which is why the Jiang Family kept it in their secret vault.

Moreover, Zhou Chun remembered he had placed a copy of this map in the family Book Collection Tower years ago, allowing any Zhou Family cultivator who could enter the tower to freely view and copy it, with a note promising handsome rewards to anyone who could present the other half of the treasure map.

Now, with Zhou Mingde, who’s managing family affairs, suddenly bringing this up, Zhou Chun realized that his actions from years ago might have already achieved some success.

Indeed, after listening to Zhou Mingde’s words, he immediately smiled and said, "That’s correct. The other day, Zhou Sihan, a junior who journeyed outside the clan, suddenly returned to the family and submitted the other half of the treasure map. After Xinyi learned of the matter, she immediately contacted me for a comparison, confirming that the two maps are identical in material, ruling out any possibility of forgery!"

Hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately contemplated, saying, "As far as the junior remembers, Zhou Sihan now should be at the Mid Foundation Establishment cultivation. After obtaining the other half of the map, did he not attempt to find the treasure?"

"Hehehe, of course he tried, but unfortunately, the place is located within the Cheng Country territory, and there is currently a grand formation and Demon Beasts guarding it. With his abilities, it’s simply impossible to seize this opportunity!"

Zhou Mingde chuckled, laughing as he revealed the answer.
