“You want a quiet territory with no factions around?” The manager’s eyelids rose up and he looked at Li Xiandao.

“Right.” Li Xiandao nodded.

“There are many of such places here. North Nether Region is huge and has three thousand top sects and eight hundred aristocratic families. These factions split up North Nether Region. There aren’t many good places but for lousy ones, there are many.” The manager said slowly.

Li Xiandao thought about it, “Find one that has thick celestial energy with being quiet as the priority.”

“Okay then, I shall search but you have to pay more.” The manager reminded Li Xiandao.

“Don’t worry, I will increase the price.” Li Xiandao nodded his head and said something against his conscience.

After the manager got Li Xiandao’s promise, he was pumped up and searched for news for Li Xiandao.

There was a bookshelf behind him with many books on it. All of them recorded the infomation of the various regions in North Nether Region.

The manager flipped while Li Xiandao found a place to sit down.

In private, Li Xiandao was thinking whether or not to pay with something else?

“I found it.” The manager’s surprised voice spread into his ears.

Li Xiandao raised his head and asked, “So quick?”

“Right, it is quite lucky. This place is definitely suitable.” The manager took out a map and passed it to Li Xiandao.

Li Xiandao took a look and his eyes lit up. The place recorded wasn’t that good.

A mountain beside a cemetary.

“What is the meaning of this?” Li Xiandao frowned. This was asking him to be neighbours with the dead.

“It meets your requirements. It has enough celestial energy. The nearby mountains are the ancestral mountains of a few top factions to bury their ancestors. The mountain is not far away.” The manager introduced.

“It also fits your other requirement, which is that it has to be quiet. The four mountains around are the ancestral mountains of four big factions. To fight for this place that has celestial meridians, they fought with one another. In the end, they split it into four and only this mountain was left.” The manager introduced.

Li Xiandao said expressionlessly, “So if I move here wouldn’t I offend the four of them directly?”

Li Xiandao canceled the thought of paying. I asked you to find a place but you arranged for me to be near a cemetery.

You want me to be happy here?

You want me to meet ghosts?

Even if I agree, Seven wouldn’t,

Bad comments!

The manager looked at him and smiled, “Why not make a huge commotion?”

“Let’s find another one.” Li Xiandao was expressionless.

“If we find another one then it might not be so good. The mountain has celestial meridians below. Think about it, for four factions to treat as their ancestral mountain, how good must they be? They are at least grade six.” The manager praised.

Celestial meridians were split into nine grades. Grade nine was the best and every grade below was weaker. Even the weakest one was better than those of Nine Skies and Ten Lands.

So the manager was right. If one didn’t consider the fact that this was a cemetery, it was indeed a good place. After all, there was a grade six celestial meridian there.

But how could one not consider that?

Li Xiandao wasn’t willing to live with the dead.

“Actually I can just stay here temporarily.” Seven’s voice rang out in Li Xiandao’s mind.

Li Xiandao was confused, “To be neighbors with the dead?”

“Humans are more terrifying than ghosts. To be neighbors with ghosts might be much better than being neighbors with humans.” Seven said.

“Moreover, there is also a grade six celestial meridian. That is the most important thing. With it, your cultivation speed would be much faster. Your subordinates’ speed will be much faster too.” Seven persuaded Li Xiandao.

Li Xiandao started to struggle.

He could choose not to listen to the manager but Li Xiandao had to consider Seven’s words.

“But there are tombs of four huge factions.” Li Xiandao added.

“The Bank of the Universe is hidden in the sky and the guests never come in from outside. How would we disturb them?” Seven asked Li Xiandao.

Li Xiandao was confused. He looked at the manager and said seriously, “Let’s not talk about this for now. Tell me, what is the situation with Black Water Island?”

“Black Water Island?” The manager said right away, “Black Water Island is Celestial Dynasty’s prison in North Nether Region where prisoners are locked up and secret things are done in. Anyways that place is really dangerous. You better not go there, you can’t offend them.”

“What kind of prisoners are locked there?” Li Xiandao was confused, “Wasn’t there an Eternal Prison under the Celestial Dynasty?”

When he was in the lower worlds, Li Xiandao broke Nine Skies and Ten Lands and Eternal Jail’s connection and released some prisoners.

So Li Xiandao knew about it.

“Yes there is but that isn’t a place that anyone can enter.” The manager said.

“Only those who can’t be pardoned and di terrible crimes could enter Eternal Jail.” The manager shook his head.

“Since they can’t be pardoned then why not kill them. Why lock them up?” Li Xiandao asked.

“This is Celestial Dynasty’s old tradition. From the start, they didn’t kill criminals. That is because once you are killed, you won’t know anything and it all ends. Celestial Dynasty felt like it was a release. The early Celestial Dynasty didn’t kill people and just locked them up, never to be free again. They would be punished and live a life worst than death. Which was why Eternal Jail was created.” The manager explained.

“From the start, the jail was designed for such people. Then there were more and more prisoners so different levels of jails were made. Black Water Island was one such one.” The manager said.

Li Xiandao nodded. He broke out in cold sweat for Tian Guangming. If he went to Black Water Island, he would definitely lose a layer of skin.

“Customer since I have answered and found you a place, thank you for your business. Please pay me 10 thousand Celestial Crystals!” The manager squinted his eyes and reached out.

Li Xiandao’s pupils constricted. he was even worse than him, “Manager, look at my eyes.”

“What?” The manager instinctively looked at Li Xiandao’s eyes in confusion.

Hong!

Li Xiandao focused fully and entered the manager’s eyes, causing his body to shake.

In an instance the manager was stunned. He then started feeling dizzy and collapsed.

Li Xiandao helped him back to his original spot and then marked the map before placing the things back to their spots.

“I waited for you to open your mouth but I didn’t expect the price. I don’t have so many celestial crystals yet so please sleep for a while.” Li Xiandao wiped away his memory.

He then left a celestial artifact, one that was stored in the Bank of the Universe.

Zhang San’s celestial artifact!

Li Xiandao didn’t sacrifice his celestial artifacts so now he used them to handover to the manager.

Zhang San was stunned. He teared up but he still had to maintain a smile.

“Don’t worry, Master will compensate you for it.” Seven consoled.
