Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 454: Informant
Chapter 454: 454: Informant
Northern Region. Snow Clan’s Territory.
A person under the Supreme Elder of the Snow Clan was sent to the mansion where the Hidden Tan Clan resides temporarily. He was sent there to pass the information about the lady called Yue Xuexia which they had been investigating for weeks.
Tan Bingyu’s voice resounds in the area as she exclaims loudly. "What do you mean she is gone?!"
The informant sent to meet them suffered from having numerous fierce gazes falling on to him. Even though he didn’t do anything bad, these eyes scare him so much that his back straightens under this gaze. What made it worse was that Tan Bingyu’s face is too close to his, making him nervous as he leans back.
Tan Bingyu’s back collar was pulled back by her mother.
"Bing’er, manners."
Tan Bingyu heard her mother’s reprimanding tone and apologized to the guest.
"Sorry."
"It’s alright." The informant said. "I will begin my report now."
"Our organization had multiple branches in all cities. The Supreme Elder of the Snow Clan had sent her people to us to buy the information about the lady named Yue Xuexia and was invited here to provide all the information we have about the target. The information can be bought by spirits stones or anything worth the price of the information provided. Let’s begin."
"The target is named Yue Xuexia. From the mortal realm, the eldest granddaughter of Supreme Elder Xia from the Starfield Sect. Cultivation is unknown at first but with the latest report we have learned that this esteemed one is a Goddess with Peak Huashen Realm Cultivation. Is she the one you are looking for?"
"Guests, information about Huashen Cultivators cost millions of spirit stone. Do you wish to proceed?" The informant asked.
Before the elders in the area can pull out their spirit stones, Tan Bingyu presses a small velvety wooden box in front of the informant.
She said as slowly opened the box. "All information about my mistress this longevity pill shall be my payment for it. If the information’s worth is lower than this longevity pill you have to pay me spirit stones and I will still give you this pill."
The informant looked like he had seen a ghost as his eyes couldn’t move away from the legendary and extremely rare Longevity Pill before his eyes. Just as he was about to reach out to touch it, the small box was closed by Tan Bingyu and left it on the table.
"You have to make sure that your information will satisfy me," Tan Bingyu said.
The informant gulps as he finally moves his eyes away from the box. Unlike before, the man is now treating Tan Bingyu and her family as VIP guests with a professional smile on his face. The informant now looked like a licking dog man.
"My dear esteemed customer and her family. I will tell you all we know about the Goddess."
"According to what we had gathered, the Goddess had descended to the fantasy forest when she first arrived in this realm. There she met an acquaintance from the Heavenly Sword Sect, the youngest inner disciple of the three sword peak’s master, Peak Master Guan Yueyi. The name of this disciple is Qi Shiru."
"Meeting such a close friend, she was guided to the Heavenly City and became a guest to the Heavenly Sword Sect. However, you know that this city is famous for its beast waves. She was rather unlucky to come this year as the Beast Riot arrived early this time for one reason. The Evil Dragon imprisoned at the death valley had escaped and targeted the nearest city which is the Heavenly City."
"Everyone didn’t know about this calamity at first. It was the Goddess who made a divination which informed those in the Heavenly Sword Sect. The Goddess is the granddaughter of Supreme Elder Xia so I guess her ability of divination is also amazing. Everyone believed her and the whole city made preparations for it."
"Normally, one would leave the city to avoid the disaster. However, the goddess didn’t leave. We have also investigated the reason and... it had something to do with you Princess Tan."
"What do you mean?" Tan Bingyu asked in bewilderment.
The informant continued speaking and said, "The goddess stayed because of your connection to the Heavenly Sword Sect’s Three Swords Peak. She chose to remain in the city to protect them. That’s why she only left the city after the evil dragon was killed. The Goddess was also the one who killed it. Sword Intent in perfection stage. The evil dragon was helpless against her attack."
"Our people who had witnessed had become her fan. She was so powerful that the fight was one-sided. After she killed the evil dragon, she returned to her manor but when the Supreme Elder and the ancestor of the Heavenly Sword Sect arrived, she was no longer there."
"It is impossible for our people to catch up with her. We also don’t know where she had gone. That’s why we told you she had disappeared. We only know that the path she had last appeared was connected to the next city. The Herb Valley."
Everyone frowned when they heard about the Herb Valley. Unlike how good the name of the valley is, this place is worse than prison. Those who do not have talent in pill refinement, spirit farming or anything related to herbs will be treated no differently as slaves. Once caught you will lose your human rights unless you escape from their valley.
Tan Huangyu commented, "That place is not a good one. However, with her talents, they might treat her as gods instead."
"But the Mistress is like a child. How many children were treated as Medicine Man in that valley? If she gets angry then... Herb Valley might have disappeared from the map," said Tan Bingyu.
The informant and the other ladies of the Hidden Tan Clan were a bit dumbfounded. They couldn’t understand why these guys are talking as if this lady called Yue Xuexia had the ability to destroy a city. However, they still choose not to ask.
Tan Bingyu’s gaze moved to him and said, "Your information is helpful. But compared to the worth of the Longevity Pill. It is lacking."
"Our organization shall pay with spirit stones," the informant said.
Tang Bingyu said, "There is no need. I want you to find some people for me. Don’t worry, none of them are in Huashen Realm. It should be easy for you to find them."
"Alright. Please list down their names," The Informant said.
Tan Bingyu lists down the names of the Yue family. The people from the Crimson Cloud Auction Hall as well as the friend of the third miss Yue, who had come with them. This list was given to the informant and kept with him. Then he finally looks at the small box that looks like a treasure chest in his eyes.
The Informant said, "Then this box is..."
"It’s yours. You can take it away. I will give you a week. When you return, what you have investigated will be enough for the rest of the cost," said Tan Bingyu.
The informant carefully hid the Longevity Pill in his storage ring and said, "I will do my job well. I will return in a week."
After their conversation ended, the information was sent off by Tan Bingyu and returned to the living room where her family is. Everyone was looking at her and clearly they knew that she had made her decision.
Tan Bingyu asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Bing’er, you can do as you will," her father, Tan Shenyu said.
Her mother also agreed with her father and said, "You’re father is right. Bing’er, you are powerful enough that the ones who can harm you in this realm are few. With how you had helped the Supreme Elder’s son, she will also protect us. Moreover, your father and grandfather are with us. We will be fine."
"Go, Bing’er. Didn’t you say that only your mistress can save the son of the Supreme Elder? Since you miss her, go find her and invite her here. Just make sure to come back within a year, the Ancient Tomb is about to open at the end of this year," Her Grandmother Tang said.
Tan Bingyu also knew about the Ancient Tomb. It’s the oldest ancient ruin in this realm. Also the main source of the Cultivation Realm’s resources. When she was a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, she only heard about this ancient ruin. However, that time it never opened. She didn’t expect it would open at the end of this year. She also wanted to enter that place so maybe she could break through to a higher realm.
She said, "I will keep that in mind grandmother. But what is so amazing about that ruin?"
"When you found your mistress and brought her home I will tell you both about the ancient tomb. Right now, it’s not good to worry about it. Focus on one thing, Bing’er," Grandmother Tang said.
Tan Bingyu nodded her head and said, "I understand Grandma."
