From a carp to a dragon god

Chapter 189 Immortal Fate and Trap

Yu Mu and Zhu Sanniang talked more and more about everything from buying an island to doing business, and finally Zhu Sanniang persuaded Yu Mu to open a noodle shop.

Zhu Sanniang helped to come up with ideas, and Yu Mu, who was listening from the side, felt that this was indeed a good idea. Instead of spending the money on the talisman to build an island, she could just use it.

It would be better to support the noodle shop business first, and then slowly purchase the island. After all, there are not many monsters including the whole family, young and old, and it will be idle if I buy it.

Before Yu Mu could talk more about business with Zhu Sanniang, the monster guarding the gate of Wuhui Cave came running to report that Li Zhen's fiancée and great-grandfather-in-law had arrived.

The great-grandfather-in-law is the biological father of the father-in-law. He is not only Li Zhen’s future great-grandfather-in-law, but also the elder of the Mu family in Chaoju City, and has considerable power.

The news about the Three Immortal Islands and the Immortal Alliance that Zhu Sanniang had received from Elder Mu in private was also the reason why he wanted to win her over for the sake of trade routes.

Zhu Sanniang was busy asking the brothers Li Zhen and Li Li to go and welcome them in, and she kept wondering in her heart why they suddenly came to the No Return Cave together?
Here, the two brothers Li Zhen and Li Li hurried out of the cave to greet them. They first greeted the two and then invited them into the cave.

Elder Mu is a fifth-grade late-stage demon fairy named Mu Guangling. He also practices the spiritual wood companion method, and his spiritual root is a Sichuan pepper tree.

The little girl following behind him was in the middle stage of the ninth rank of cultivation. She was also wearing a fish-skin coat, and her transformed form was a beautiful girl with willow eyebrows and almond eyes.

The little girl's name was Mu Lingge. She was dressed in royal blue, with a royal moon crown on her head and a small flower basket filled with paulownia flowers.

"Brother Zhen, I heard that Aunt Zhu got a certificate to buy an island." Mu Lingge came close to Li Zhen and spoke softly.

"You knew it so quickly?" Li Zhen asked in amazement.

"When the Five Black Boys came to the island, our ancestor got the news. Seeing that he brought back a large sun fire crow, we naturally had to ask about it."

Mu Lingge's voice was like that of an oriole, clear, melodious and crisp. When she spoke close to Li Zhen's ear, her voice sounded even sweeter.

"So, father-in-law came here for the island purchase certificate?" Li Zhen asked carefully.

Mu Lingge frowned and said angrily, "What are you thinking about? Grandpa is giving your family the title deed to the neighboring Yatou Mountain.

Another thing is to say a few words to Aunt Zhu so that you don't miss this opportunity. I feel bad for you."

Li Zhen felt relieved after hearing this, knowing that he was wrong, and said quickly: "Oh, it's all my fault for imagining things. My dear sister, please don't be angry with me."

Mu Lingge covered her mouth with her hands and laughed. At the end, she gave Li Zhen a blank look and said, "Who would bother with an idiot like you? Why is there only Ximu this time and no Ganoderma lucidum?"

Two days ago, Zhu Sanniang's treasure ship arrived at Jinlu Island. After unloading all kinds of goods, she asked the boatmen to deliver Ximu to her daughter-in-law's shop as soon as possible.

"You'll have to wait until next month for the Ganoderma lucidum. My cousin has moved all the Ganoderma fields here and is waiting to replant them. You can pick them later." Li Zhen introduced.

He had told his fiancée about his cousin earlier, so Mu Lingge knew something about it. The couple whispered to each other all the way.

Elder Mu Guangling and Li Li in front took two quick steps and kept some distance from their granddaughter and grandson-in-law, allowing them to spend time together.

Then he asked Li Li the truth about what happened, why the Fire Duck Fairy burned the mountain, and how the Five Black Boys gave the evidence.

When he found out that he was given a Great Sun True Fire Talisman, he couldn't help but frown and the smile on his face became less.

This matter was quite different from what he had imagined, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed. He wanted to remind him, but he had to tell Zhu Sanniang so as not to miss the opportunity.

When they arrived at Lingshui Lake, Elder Mu did not wait for Li Zhen and his granddaughter, and urged Li Li to go ahead, so they took a small boat to the island in the middle of the lake.

Zhu Sanniang had been waiting on the shore early. She had originally wanted to go out to greet them together, and she had the same idea as Li Zhen, so she deliberately put on airs.

"My dear in-laws, I'm sorry for not welcoming you. I have relatives over and I'm busy right now." Zhu Sanniang came forward with a smile on her face. Elder Mu didn't care at all and quickly said, "I heard that your family got a certificate to purchase an island. The five black boys promised that we could buy a high-quality island. Is this true?"

Zhu Sanniang nodded in agreement, observing secretly and guessing Elder Mu's motives.

“I came here to remind you that when it comes to buying an island, don’t even think about buying a mid-range or low-range one. Go straight for a high-quality island.

I won't hide it from you, this superior island is a status. Every ten years, one disciple can be sent to pass the examination to join the Immortal Alliance, or directly become an outer disciple of the Immortal Alliance.

Don't be confused about this, just make sure to buy a high-quality island."

Elder Mu first cast a spell to block out the sound, and then told Zhu Sanniang about the Three Immortal Islands. Their Mu family had no shortage of opportunities to join the Immortal Alliance.

When they got engaged, they promised that Li Zhen and his granddaughter's child could be sent to study at Sanxiandao, so they would not come to snatch the island purchase certificate.

"So that's how it is. Fortunately, my in-laws reminded me, otherwise I would have missed it." Zhu Sanniang was busy thanking them. She was just thinking about buying a medium-sized island.

"I heard that the Five Black Boys left behind a Great Sun True Fire Talisman. Is it still there?" Elder Mu asked again.

"The fire talisman has been used. When the fire essence broke through the ninth level, it was refined into the Dharma image." Zhu Sanniang answered somewhat bewilderedly.

Elder Mu sighed after hearing this and said, "Things like the Great Sun True Fire and the Fire Crow are untouchable in the East China Sea.

The five black boys will follow the rules of the Immortal Alliance and compensate your family with an Immortal Fate, which is also a certificate for purchasing an island. If you have the opportunity to buy a superior island, it will be considered as an Immortal Fate.

And because you are blackmailing him, you have brought disaster upon yourself. The Great Sun True Fire has an owner, who is controlled by Fang Xianzhenjun of the Fire Crow Palace.

His Fire Crow Palace is a magic weapon. In order to collect 100,000 Great Sun Fire Crows, he released many Fire Crow techniques and Great Sun Fire seeds.

Now that the Fire Spirit has refined the True Fire, don't overthink it. It will eventually be incorporated into the Fire Crow Palace, which will be a good addition to your family."

Elder Mu sighed at the end of his speech and said that if it was an ordinary sacrificial fire, it would not have much impact if he stopped it now. Now that it has been refined into the Dharma image, it would be in vain to say anything.

Zhu Sanniang had not expected this to happen and was speechless for a moment. This incident was quite similar to the experience of the Xiyu Immortal in Xiyu Blessed Land.

Elder Mu was about to leave after he finished speaking when he remembered that he had not yet given the title deed to Yatou Mountain, so he hurriedly took out a fish-scale land book.

"I almost forgot, where are your relatives? Please come and sign the earth qi. There should be real fire on the top of Yatou Mountain. Remember to remind them not to get burned." Elder Mu reminded again.

Zhu Sanniang then asked her son Li Li to invite Yu Mu to sign the land deed, while she was thinking about the purchase of the island and the Great Sun Fire.

In a moment, Yu Mu followed Li Li out. Elder Mu had just cast a spell to isolate them, so Li Li did not hear the content of the conversation and only repeated what Zhu Sanniang had instructed.

On Linghu Lake, Li Zhen and Mu Lingge also took a small boat to the island in the middle of the lake. This was Mu Lingge's first time returning to the blessed land of Wuhui Cave. Li Zhen gave him various introductions along the way.

"Aunt Zhu, this is the nectar from the paulownia trees that I picked. I brought it specially for you to try." As soon as Mu Lingge got ashore, he said to Zhu Sanniang's luggage.

The fish mother also signed the fish scale book and took back a land deed.
