Chapter 188 Wildfire
Ye Qing'an replied, "Then let them continue searching. I'll meditate and cultivate for a while."
Ye Qing'an sat down cross-legged, then suddenly remembered something, took out a stack of silver notes from his sleeve and tossed them to Jiu Xiao. Jiu Xiao was taken aback: "What is this?"
Upon receiving it, Jiu Xiao's eyes widened in surprise: "A silver note?"
Jiuxiao quickly counted the stack of silver notes, his eyes widening with each count: "There are a full 30,000 taels of silver notes here! Where did you get so much silver? Did you rob someone?"
"A gift from my maternal grandfather."
"Good heavens." Jiuxiao clicked his tongue twice: "Does your maternal grandfather need a grandson? Or a great-grandson? Is it too late for me to reincarnate now?"
Ye Qing'an glanced at Jiu Xiao and scoffed, "Even if you were to reincarnate, you could only be a beast, not a human. But perhaps you could choose a better master if you were reincarnated. What do you think?"
"I feel so too."
Ye Qing'an nodded seriously: "Then I'll send you to be reincarnated now?"
Jiuxiao blinked: "I feel that the spiritual energy in this Cloud Dream Realm is very abundant today. Master, you should seize the time to cultivate. I won't disturb you any longer."
Ye Qing'an raised her eyes and glanced at Jiu Xiao: "Take this money and set up a few brothels and casinos."
"Brothels and casinos?"
Ye Qing'an responded, "Brothels and casinos are the best sources of all sorts of gossip. They might come in very handy in the future. Go and get some information."
"Alright." Jiuxiao nodded and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Once Ye Qing'an was the only one left in the Cloud Dreamland, she slowly raised her hand, and a long box suddenly appeared in the void—the very one that Old Madam Su had given her before.
Ye Qing'an opened the box, raised her hand, and a cut suddenly appeared on her finger, from which blood slowly dripped onto the red whip inside the box...
“Wildfire, then you shall be called Wildfire.”
The Wildfire Whip suddenly shone brightly, then gradually dimmed.
Ye Qing'an picked up the wildfire, held it in his hand for a long time, and then suddenly lashed out with his whip at the artificial hill beside him.
The stone suddenly shattered, scattering fragments everywhere.
Ye Qing'an curled the corners of her lips; it truly was an excellent spiritual weapon.
After being reborn here, she has not been able to obtain a suitable weapon. However, since she has not yet achieved great success in her cultivation, she is not in a great hurry. She was planning to wait until she reaches the level of an immortal before seeking a better spiritual weapon.
Unexpectedly, I received such a treasure.
Ye Qing'an curled the corners of her lips and waved the Wildfire toward herself. The Wildfire seemed to have its own consciousness and wrapped itself around Ye Qing'an's waist.
Ye Qing'an looked down and was quite satisfied.
It was wrapped around her waist like that. Now that the weather is getting colder, if she puts on an outer robe, probably no one will notice that she has an extra garment on her.
Wildfire is precious, and she doesn't want to cause any extra trouble.
A short while later, Jiuxiao returned to the illusion. Upon seeing the scene, Jiuxiao couldn't help but widen his eyes: "What are you doing? Are you planning to destroy the house? How did you manage to make such a mess of this place?"
Ye Qing'an glanced at Jiu Xiao: "It's nothing, I just got a new weapon and am just testing it out."
"What weapon?"
Ye Qing'an took out the Wildfire: "It was a gift from my maternal grandmother."
Jiuxiao was a discerning person, and upon seeing the Wildfire, he couldn't help but be startled: "This Wildfire can be considered a divine weapon, right? I can feel the spiritual energy contained in this whip even from this far away."
Ye Qing'an chuckled: "Yes, but the Wildfire was forged by my maternal grandmother herself and is not on the weapon list, so it cannot yet be called a divine weapon. However, in my mind, it is a divine weapon."
"Your maternal grandmother... personally forged it?"
Jiuxiao was even more envious: "The person who can forge such a weapon must be a blacksmith of level seven or above. You are really lucky."
"For no reason at all, my maternal grandparents suddenly came back, and then suddenly we received so many good things."
Ye Qing'an chuckled and put away the Wildfire.
In her past life, whatever she wanted, someone would gather it and present it to her in the best possible way. But those people did that simply because she was the regent, and because they wanted something from her.
Throughout her life, after arriving in the Siyou Kingdom, apart from one person named Eleven, everyone else she encountered was someone who schemed against her and required her to be wary of them.
She had never met anyone like Su Yusheng and Madam Su, who disregarded everything else and trusted her wholeheartedly simply because she was Ye Qing'an, trying their best to give her the best.
She is indeed an extremely lucky person.
Ye Qing'an looked up at Jiu Xiao: "You're back so soon? Did you finish up?"
"How could that be?" Jiu Xiao glanced at Ye Qing'an: "How could it be so fast? I just gave some silver to some people in the city who have the fastest and most comprehensive sources of information to keep an eye out for which brothels and casinos need to be sold. As soon as there is any news, they can notify me in time, and then I can have them take me to negotiate the price. I just need to decide whether to buy or not."
Ye Qing'an narrowed his eyes: "There are still people like this in Wangjing City?"
"Of course there are, and these people are all organized. They may belong to someone in the court or the palace. After all, there are too many people in Wangjing who want to gather information."
"Those people or organizations specialize in gathering information. They can find out all sorts of big and small, strange and unusual things that happen in Wangjing City. Moreover, they also take all kinds of jobs. As long as there is money, they can find out all kinds of things."
Ye Qing'an twitched her fingers slightly: "I understand."
She wanted to have her own power, but power comes in many forms.
There are bodyguards who protect you personally, assassins who specialize in killing, and those who excel in a particular skill, such as forging, healing, alchemy, or beast taming...
Some specialize in gathering information, while others control a particular industry in the city or even the entire country...
Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes. The easiest thing for her to do now was to gather information.
Secondly, there are assassins who specialize in assassination.
She has to take it one step at a time and can't rush it.
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips: "Hurry up and finalize the matters concerning the brothel and the casino; I have a great use for them."
Jiuxiao rolled his eyes: "Hurry up, hurry up..."
Ye Qing'an raised her hand, and countless ice swords quickly materialized in her palm...
Jiuxiao coughed lightly: "I understand, I'll do it as soon as possible."
Then he changed the subject again: "I think your skills have improved a lot lately."
