Chapter 620: 228. Star Raft Market, Brushing Past (6.2K words - Asking for Subscription)_2

Di Cunxin stood by the window, looking outside, suddenly transmitted the thought: "Congratulations on winning Ning Upper Envoy’s favor. What I told you before about the Secret Treasure, forget it."

Song Yan replied in thought: "What do you mean?"

Di Cunxin transmitted the thought: "Literally, I will no longer make an issue of your rapid breakthrough to the Divinity Transformation Realm."

Song Yan’s pupils slightly contracted.

Di Cunxin did not transmit thoughts further, instead, turned to look at Song Yan and Hua Linglong, and said mournfully: "After all, we all come from the same place, are all old friends too. Though there were grievances in the past, since arriving at a bigger place, there’s no need to continue, right?"

Hua Linglong said: "What mischief are you up to?"

Di Cunxin smiled faintly, then focused intently at the Star Raft market at this time, without saying more.

Suddenly, he lifted his hand to point into the distance.

That was the center of the market, where a giant stele covered in Ancient Swords stood like a landmark.

Di Cunxin said: "Here is very close to the Myriad Swords Star Realm, these rafts are from various Loose Cultivators and merchants, mixed good and evil. That Ancient Sword stele is their legal mark for trade in the Myriad Swords Star Realm."

However, he spoke to himself, while the other two treated him as air.

Di Cunxin seemed to find it uninteresting, smiled and said: "Since it’s legal, this place is actually quite safe. Rare to come here, I’m going down to purchase a bit."

After speaking, he stretched his body and slowly walked away.

Song Yan’s peripheral gaze swept over Di Cunxin’s figure.

Di Cunxin was quite unusual.

First, he obviously held leverage, yet suddenly abandoned it;

Second, he wanted to stroll the market.

What kind of person is Di Cunxin?

Would he not use leverage?

Would he put himself in danger?

And just then, a thought from Di Cunxin drifted over from afar.

"Song Yan, that Nine Nether Lotus Heart Soup, also known as Nine Nether Heart Refining Soup, tastes good, right?"

Upon hearing this, Song Yan suddenly understood.

He did not respond, merely laughed inwardly: ’Indeed, it is good.’

...

...

As he was just thinking, the light shield of the Ancient Bronze Ship suddenly expanded with ripples.

Song Yan suddenly turned his head, only to see Di Cunxin actually leaving the cabin, heading to the deck, and with a leap, landing on a Star Raft.

"He actually went down." Hua Linglong said.

Song Yan glanced around, made a brief investigation, and suddenly discovered a secret Array Shield within which a golden Octagonal Compass was floating, its compass emitting strands of invisible light, leading far away... the person connected to it was Di Cunxin.

Hua Linglong also saw that object, slightly observed, then directly revealed: "Di Cunxin’s return compass, this item was refined by him using his true essence as an Introduction treasure. In the original world, no matter where one stands, a thought allows them to return to where this compass resides.

This compass, although lacking Magical Battle methods, has excellent functionality, unfortunately... once set, it cannot be moved at will, otherwise it would cause Di Cunxin to lose direction upon return."

Song Yan said: "Di Cunxin placed it here, perhaps intending for you to move it."

Hua Linglong said: "Perhaps he only knew, wherever he places it, we would feel it, so... simply playing real and fake, disturbing the sight. This market is definitely not as safe as he claimed, and the reason he’s risking going down must be something he absolutely needs to purchase."

Her expression was wistful, suddenly transmitted the thought: "No need to approach, just exert slight control of Profound Qi here, strike the compass’s dial lightly, maybe we can keep Di Cunxin here forever."

Song Yan did not transmit thoughts, instead slowly shook his head, firmly said: "Even though we have a grudge, I never thought of defeating him with such despicable methods. There will come a day, I will righteously defeat him with the sword! This matter, don’t mention it again!"

Hua Linglong: ??????

Song Yan stepped forward, arrived at the Array Shield where the return compass was located, and said calmly: "I will guard the compass here, allowing him to return safely, otherwise... having no such opponent to hone my Sword Heart would be quite boring?"
