Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All



The houses of ordinary height here would be overturned by the sea breeze. Therefore, in order to prevent the houses from being blown over, the commoners built their houses very low. They had to bend down to enter the house.

As for those who were powerful, they could design high-level protective shields. The materials used were also stronger, so the houses would be much taller.

It was for this reason that the two-story building in the middle was particularly eye-catching.

Dong Xi looked at the small building and his gaze became firm. Dong Xi could feel that Senior Brother Rui Ming was inside.

He sighed helplessly. He had just arrived here and had already found the strongest person here. What was Senior Brother Rui Ming trying to do?

Dong Xi suddenly regretted not asking clearly. If she had asked why Senior Brother Rui Ming was here, this would not have happened.

After entering the city, Dong Xi was worried that he would implicate Senior Tie Zhu. After thinking for a moment, he finally decided to go alone.

Dong Xi pretended not to know where Rui Ming was and said, "Senior brother, let's split up and search. You go there, I'll go to the other side. If you find Senior Brother Rui Ming, use the communication jade slip to contact him."

Tie Zhu did not think too much and directly said, "No problem."

Watching Senior Brother Tie Zhu leave, Dong Xi used Ground Shrinking to rush toward the central two-story building.

Dong Xi had thought that Senior Brother Rui Ming might have been caught and brought here, and that she needed to find a way to sneak in.

However, Dong Xi walked around the courtyard and found a bird in the corner.

The bird lay on the ground, looking very pitiful.

Dong Xi had seen Senior Brother Rui Ming's original body. Compared to this palm-sized one, Senior Brother Rui Ming was much bigger, but…What was happening now?

Dong Xi reached out to pick up Rui Ming and found that Rui Ming had lost consciousness.

Dong Xi was so frightened that she immediately injected some wood spiritual energy into him. When the healing wood spiritual energy circulated a few times in Rui Ming's body, Rui Ming woke up.

Dong Xi immediately left with Rui Ming and found an inn to stay in. She sent Tie Zhu the location. Dong Xi looked at Rui Ming and said, "Senior Brother, what's going on? You're in danger as soon as you arrived?"

"I feel like something's missing," Rui Ming sighed. "That thing is in the building."

Dong Xi was stunned for a moment. No wonder Elder Fu Rui had asked Rui Ming to come. It seemed that the item that Senior Brother Rui Ming had lost was extremely important.

"Senior Brother, you can tell us. We can search together. It'll be much faster than you searching alone, right?" said Dong Xi.

Rui Ming nodded. Dong Xi continued, "Why did you faint just now? Did you fight with someone?"

"No." Rui Ming shook his head.

"You didn't fight with anyone. I don't know what happened to you, but you suddenly fainted."

Moreover, Rui Ming's memory was missing. This was also one of the reasons why his cultivation had not improved for many years.

"Then do you know what's missing?" Dong Xi frowned.

Rui Ming still shook his head. Dong Xi said, "Presumably, Senior Brother is here to find that thing, but this matter needs to be discussed in detail. If Senior Brother wants to take any action, it's best to let me know."

"Alright." Rui Ming nodded.

...

The two of them had just finished discussing when Tie Zhu ran back.

Tie Zhu rushed in anxiously. Seeing that Rui Ming was fine, Tie Zhu immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Tie Zhu said, "Little Brother, where did you go? Are you lost?"

Rui Ming's face was a little red. He lowered his head and said, "Yes, I got lost."

Tie Zhu immediately laughed. "It's okay. If we need to buy anything in the future, I'll go buy it. Don't run around."

As soon as the three of them met, it became lively outside.

Dong Xi looked at the closed door, but Tie Zhu had already opened the door and stuck his head out. Tie Zhu shouted towards the outside, "Fellow Daoist, what did you guys talk about? What's the commotion?"

"Miss Shangguan is throwing the embroidered ball!" The person outside said.

"What?" Dong Xi blinked and said. Throwing embroidered balls?"

Tie Zhu was indeed the strongest talker in the cultivation world. Tie Zhu directly asked, "Isn't throwing embroidered balls a gimmick in the mortal world? How come there are people in the cultivation world who play like this?"

"Are you all outsiders?" asked the person from before. "I can't really explain it. You should ask someone else, I'm in a hurry to snatch the embroidered ball."

...

The originally bustling inn suddenly quieted down, as if people were hollowed out.

Dong Xi called the attendant over and gave him a handful of low-grade spirit stones. Dong Xi smiled and said, "Attendant, if you can answer my question, these spirit stones are yours."

There were seven or eight pieces of spirit stones. To the attendant, it was a lot!
