Rebirth of the Urban Demon Lord

Chapter 30 Dogs look down on people

Chapter Thirty: Judging People by Their Dog Eyes

Zhuo Yang left first. Pan Jianbo and Feng Rong had already received Zhuo Yang's instructions to go to Lingzhou to meet him after they finished dealing with the treasures. After saying goodbye to Cui Yi, they hurriedly went to find someone to deal with the gold, silver and jade artifacts they had on hand.

The remaining Cui Yi and the others discussed it briefly, then immediately took what they had found in the ancient tomb and returned to Dazexiang.

In the only decent-looking hotel in the town, Cui Yi returned to his room and opened the door to see a woman in a white robe standing by the window. A gentle breeze blew, and the white robe clung to her body, revealing her beautiful figure.

"Sect Master!" Cui Yi dared not look any longer, quickly threw off the miscellaneous items on his body, and bowed respectfully.

The woman in white robes turned around, her face still covered by a silver mask. She snorted, "Old Cui, what's the name of the person you're with? What's their cultivation level? What kind of person are they?"

A series of questions, all about Zhuo Yang.

Without a second thought, Cui Yi blurted out, "His name is Zhuo Yang. He's young, but his cultivation is incredibly powerful. Although I can't discern his true level, one thing is certain: an ordinary Golden Core cultivator is no match for Zhuo Yang!"

"In the maze, he killed two experts from the Seven Star Sect who forcibly raised their cultivation to the Golden Core stage!"

The evaluation was so high that the woman in the white robe could hardly believe it.

There was no response for a long time, as if she was thinking. After a while, she said coldly, "Cultivation cannot be faked, but what about his character?"

Upon hearing this, Cui Yi's heart skipped a beat; it seemed the Pavilion Master intended to recruit Zhuo Yang!

As a member of the Phoenix Pavilion and a secret intelligence agent sent by the Dragon Court to various sects and forces, Cui Yi wanted Zhuo Yang to join the Dragon Court.

He thought for a moment before saying, "Sect Master, Zhuo Yang is proud and arrogant, so he may not be easy to recruit. However, he lives in Lingzhou, and I have his contact information. I would like to make contact with him first, befriend him, and then slowly bring up the matter of recruitment."

The woman in white remained noncommittal, then asked, "How was the tomb raiding this time? Did Zhuo Yang steal all the spoils?"

"Zhuo Yang... is a man of noble character and integrity!" Cui Yi's resolute face was full of emotion. "Sect Master, Zhuo Yang gave me the Tongtian Treasure Record, a treasure he found in the ancient tomb. It's the jade pendant that you stole before, but Zhuo Yang took it back."

"He gave it to you?"

The woman in the white robe finally showed surprise, her voice rising several octaves.

Cui Yi took the jade pendant out of his inner pocket and presented it with both hands: "Master, I have checked it. The jade pendant manual cannot be modified, so it should be genuine."

The woman in white took the jade pendant, sensed it with her internal energy, and then casually tossed it to Cui Yi: "The technique is good, but the level is average. You should find a suitable disciple to teach it to him."

After speaking, he turned around and looked out the window. His face was covered by a mask, so his expression was unreadable.

Cui Yi felt that the Pavilion Master was judging others by his own petty standards.

"Zhuoyang, Zhuoyang!"

After a long pause, the woman in white gritted her teeth and muttered Zhuo Yang's name, then said in a deep voice, "Old Cui, keep an eye on Zhuo Yang. If... I mean if it's possible, try to win him over. This sect leader wants to see for himself whether he's a true master or a hypocrite!"

"Yes!" Cui Yi quickly agreed, but thought to himself, "It will be very difficult to win over Zhuo Yang!"

Afterwards, the woman in white robes left the small hotel without even glancing at the saber and other items that Cui Yi and the others had collected from the ancient tomb, a behavior very much like Zhuo Yang's.

……

Zhuo Yang drove back to Lingzhou overnight, returned the car at dawn, and went back to his rented place in the urban village.

After a day and a night of tomb exploration, looking at this little place again, I felt a sense of familiarity, yet also a deep sense of disgust.

"It's time to find a place with plenty of energy to build a cave dwelling."

Zhuo Yang sighed, dragged his suitcase out from under the bed, packed it quickly, and left the place where he had lived for almost two years.

After that, he hired a taxi and drove around the city aimlessly...

The Demon Eye is a supernatural ability that only demons can master. It is incredibly powerful. Demons can use the Demon Eye to see things that ordinary people, and even cultivators, cannot see, such as the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

If you rely solely on sensing the concentration of primordial energy to find a place rich in primordial energy, it's practically pure luck.

Zhuo Yang can easily identify the concentration of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within his field of vision using his demonic eyes.

There are wisps of colorful silk threads floating in the air; these are the primordial energy of heaven and earth, though their quantity varies, and sometimes there is none at all.

When cultivators cultivate, they absorb the primordial energy of heaven and earth into their bodies and refine it. The most obvious result is internal strength. True cultivators will refine the primordial energy of heaven and earth into true essence, which is commonly known as cultivation.

As the taxi arrived on the coastal highway, Zhuo Yang raised an eyebrow and immediately asked the driver to take him to the seaside hillside villa area that came into view.

On that mountain, the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth formed a five-colored auspicious cloud, a colorful scene that could almost rival a blessed land!

It might be related to the energy fluctuations on the second day of the second lunar month, but I don't have time to investigate the reason yet; I must seize this precious land first.

The taxi stopped in front of the sales office, and Zhuo Yang dragged his suitcase inside.

"welcome……"

A saleswoman who was putting on makeup heard footsteps and immediately came over. When she saw Zhuo Yang, who was dressed plainly and dragging a suitcase, her face immediately fell, and she ignored him.

She has a good figure, but she's not young, and her makeup is too heavy, which is a bit jarring.

The name on the name tag is: Zhang Guilan.

Zhuo Yang ignored her and walked to the sand table model on his own.

"Don't break it, it'll be very expensive to repair," Zhang Guilan warned.

Zhuo Yang looked up and asked, "How much does the villa closest to the mountaintop cost?"

Zhang Guilan looked over in astonishment: "You can't afford it, so why are you asking?"

"Just asking."

These days, there are too many people who look down on others, but Zhuo Yang wasn't angry because it wasn't worth it.

"15,000 yuan per square meter. The villa you mentioned has four floors including the basement, totaling 840 square meters. You can calculate how much it would cost yourself." Zhang Guilan was speechless, her face tense.

Twelve million six hundred thousand!

Zhuo Yang calculated it: "This price is indeed a bit expensive!"

Lingzhou is a third-tier city with an average house price of around 6,000 yuan per square meter. Unexpectedly, the price of villas has more than doubled. Although it is far from comparable to the house prices in first- and second-tier cities, it is still very expensive.

“Of course!” Zhang Guilan replied haughtily, “Our Penglai Pavilion is a residential community developed by Oriental Real Estate Group. It’s the last villa community in Lingzhou, nestled against the mountains and facing the sea, with a yacht marina right at the foot of the mountain…”

"Hey, why am I telling you this? You can't afford it anyway!"

Zhang Guilan rolled her eyes in annoyance and left.

Zhuo Yang said quietly from behind her, "What if I could afford it?"

Oriental Real Estate Group!

In the entire Lingzhou, the only one who dares to use the name "Dongfang" in their business name is probably Dongfang Jiye.
