Yun Chujiu frowned. “That person promised that your Goshawk Sect could become a super sect, and you actually believe him?”
“To be honest, that person gave me a pill. After I ate it, I quickly rose from the second level to the third level of the Spirit Emperor realm.
“That person promised me that if I found the map and gave it to him, he would give me a lot of those pills. With those pills, our Goshawk Sect’s disciples’ cultivation will increase by a large margin. When that time comes, we will be able to rise to prominence.” Liu Qian’s eyes shone with yearning as he spoke.
“If you get the map, how will that person contact you?”
“That person said that I don’t need to contact him. He will contact me.”
…
After Yun Chujiu inquired for a while, she indicated to the merman that she was done. The merman waved his hand and Liu Qian fainted once again.
Yun Chujiu took out the snow cashmere carpet from her storage ring and cut off a piece of it with a large kitchen knife. After scraping off the cashmere, she took out a brush, dipped it in a cinnabar and drew a map.
The merman looked at Yun Chujiu’s actions curiously and said disapprovingly, “Little girl, the map you drew is obviously new. It’s impossible to fool others.”
Yun Chujiu giggled. “Brother Merman, this is only the first step. You won’t say that when you see the finished product later.”
The merman was skeptical. He saw Yun Chujiu take out spirit wine and rice vinegar and rubbed it on the map. Then she took out a piece of ore, turned it into powder, and started to smoke the map with fire.
After Yun Chujiu smoked the map until it was slightly yellow, she washed it again with water. After drying it with her spiritual power, she repeatedly folded it with her hands and dragged it around on the ground. Finally, she burned a corner of it with a flint and nodded in satisfaction before handing the map to the merman. “Big Brother Merman, what do you think?”
The merman took the map and looked at it. He was very surprised. If he did not know that this map was newly drawn by the little girl, he would have thought that it was an old map that had been passed down for many years.
“Little girl, I didn’t expect you to have such a unique skill. This map looks real. The only flaw is that it’s not made from the skin of a Poison-antlered Antelope. Otherwise, I would’ve thought that it was passed down from ancient times.”
Yun Chujiu giggled. “I have many skills. This is just a small trick. Brother Merman, can you set up an illusion for them to think that I helped them turn back into human form and get this map before sending us out?”
The merman nodded. “Yes, I’ll cast a spell right away. See you again, little girl!”
“Big Brother Merman, don’t worry. I’ll send you food again when I have time. You must take care and wait for my good news!” Yun Chujiu said with a smile.
The merman saw Yun Chujiu’s bright smile and his heart warmed. He nodded solemnly. “I’ll wait for you.”
“Big Brother Merman, you have to keep your word. If you misspeak, you’ll be a puppy!” Although Yun Chujiu’s smile was very bright, she sighed in her heart. Big Brother Merman was kept going by the hatred of having his entire clan exterminated. That was why he was able to endure such torment day after day. If it was an ordinary person, they would not be able to live for even a day, let alone ten thousand years.
The merman saw a trace of pity in Yun Chujiu’s eyes. His nose turned sour and he hurriedly began to cast a spell. After creating an illusion, he teleported everyone outside the cave.
