"Throughout Red Pillar City, where the houses are good and where they are poor, I'm most familiar with that. You'll soon understand that your Spirit Stones won't be wasted!" the old cultivator said with a smile.
"I must also ask Fellow Daoist to take good care of this junior," Chen Li added.
Along the way, Chen Li deliberately tried to make friends, keeping a very low profile and giving compliments from time to time.
After several exchanges, the old cultivator's attitude toward Chen Li grew increasingly friendly, and without realizing it, he divulged quite a bit of information.
The old cultivator's surname was Wei, his name Changming, at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, over two hundred years old. He was one of the Huoyun Sect's stewards in Red Pillar City, and there were thirty-eight such stewards in the city, with an elder in the Golden Core Late Stage permanently stationed there.
