Only My Way

Although his appearance was ordinary, his temperament was ordinary, his clothes were ordinary, and his whole body was filled with the word 'ordinary'.

He was even a little thin.

As if he was somewhat malnourished.

He looked as if he would fall over with a slight breeze.

However, the eyes of the old man sitting opposite Kang Canglan were quite spirited, with a bright and lively gaze.

Just seeing those eyes, one could realize that this was a knowledgeable and experienced old man.

Especially when the other party slightly narrowed his eyes.

It gave off a feeling of cunning and shrewdness.

Hmm…

The so-called unscrupulous merchant, that was the feeling.

At this moment.

Hearing the other party's words.

Kang Canglan didn't say any superfluous nonsense, but directly introduced himself:

"My name is Kang Canglan, and I am the current ruler of the [Maple Chasing Dynasty]. I need you to calculate the location of a person."

Although he had never met Kang Canglan before.

He was quite familiar with the [Maple Chasing Dynasty] and knew the strength of this dynasty very well, even considering it in the upper-middle ranks among the various super forces.

After all.

The fact that the [Maple Chasing Dynasty] could boast a history of nearly fifty thousand years was enough to prove its strength.

So the old man immediately said with a smile:

"Easy to say, easy to say~ As long as the price is right and it doesn't break my rules, then everything is easy to talk about."

Regarding the price.

As a [True Appearance Realm] expert, and one of the most skilled in divination and prediction in the entire [Northern Region].

The old man's charges have always had only one standard, and that is expensive!!

And unbelievably expensive!!

He doesn't want spirit stones.

Nor does he want conventional wealth.

He only wants extremely rare treasures and high-level books.

Therefore.

Even the other [True Appearance Realm] experts rarely come to him.

This also indirectly shows that when customers go to great lengths to find him, they often have no other choice… They can only obediently be forced to be fleeced.

As for his rules, they are very simple.

That is, the old man has always held a deep-seated taboo against certain forces and taboos, and he simply will not accept orders in those areas.

As for the old man's conditions.

Kang Canglan naturally knew it well.

After nodding.

He quickly took out a crystal shimmering with faint light and said:

"I already know about your situation."

"This is the person I want to find. They took some very important treasure from us…"

That glowing crystal was a runic tool capable of preserving fragments of memories—a memory crystal.

And the memory fragments preserved within.

Were none other than Hua Lishu's memories of Ling Wuyuan!

Compared to simple portraits, these memory fragments that could completely restore Ling Wuyuan's appearance and behavior undoubtedly had a closer connection with Ling Wuyuan on the causal level, making them more suitable as divination media.

Listening to Kang Canglan's rather vague words.

The old man didn't bother to care what the so-called treasure in the other party's mouth was.

Everyone has their own secrets, don't they?

In short, he didn't care what Kang Canglan wanted to do with that target.

He just needed to know that the other party wouldn't default on his debt or break his rules.

Then.

Just as he wanted to take the memory crystal containing some of Hua Lishu's memory fragments.

Suddenly.

Under completely unforeseen circumstances.

His arm, which had just been stretched out and had not yet touched the memory crystal, suddenly twitched without warning.

That feeling… it was as if his arm had suddenly lost control!!

Even though that situation only lasted for an extremely brief moment.

The facial expression on the old man's face.

Still underwent some extremely obvious changes in an instant, with no longer the composure of just now!!

The next moment.

Before Kang Canglan could figure out the situation.

The old man quickly retracted his outstretched palm.

It was as if he was rapidly avoiding a venomous snake about to bite his hand.

Then.

Without waiting for Kang Canglan to react, the old man quickly replied:

"I can't take this deal!!"

"You should go find someone else!!"

The newest and most complete novels are available at 69shuba.com!

Having said that.

With a distortion of the surrounding space.

The old man's figure immediately disappeared without a trace, never to be seen again!!

The whole escape was completed in one go!!

Not giving Kang Canglan any chance to retain him or ask questions, as if the other party was some kind of terrible plague god!!

Faced with this unexpected scene, even Kang Canglan, a man of great knowledge, was somewhat unable to react and couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds.

"…"

But after Kang Canglan reacted.

His face instantly became extremely ugly.

He understood that to make the other party show such a reaction as if fleeing for his life, avoiding him like a venomous snake or scorpion.

The guy he and others wanted to find must contain extremely huge secrets… and even the kind of secrets that could lead a common [True Appearance Realm] expert to their death without a burial place!!

For a time.

The expression on his face was as wonderful as a face-changing performance.

Instantly.

Based on his overflowing spiritual power.

The sky above the entire city suddenly presented a scene of changing winds and clouds.

Countless high-speed air currents.

Began to stir restlessly in the high sky, covering the land within tens of thousands of miles with thick, dark clouds…

At the same time.

Although they didn't know what had happened.

Countless creatures shrouded in dark clouds instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and they all looked up at the sky with worried faces…

Finally.

A few minutes later, forced by helplessness, Kang Canglan ultimately chose to withdraw his own scattered spiritual power, and quietly left the city as he had come, without doing anything extra.

And after Kang Canglan had completely left.

As the dark clouds above slowly dissipated.

The old man who had disappeared before chose to return again.

Only.

On his face, there was still a lot of lingering fear.

Especially when he looked at his arm, which was bulging with veins, as if it was still twitching.

That kind of lingering fear became even more intense!!

Those who didn't know would probably immediately suspect whether the other party had just escaped some extremely dangerous life-or-death crisis…

There was no way around it.

The current expression on that face.

Was too strong and too obvious in terms of emotional characteristics.

It only possessed pure fear, without any other emotions…

It was as if an ordinary person, without any preparation, suddenly discovered that there was actually a poet demon standing in front of them, about to skin them alive!!

Even his old face was quite flushed.

This situation meant that the other party's heart was beating at an ultra-high speed.

The excessively fast blood flow rate had already caused the other party's face to become congested.
