Ascension Through Generations

Half a month later, Zhou Quan had less and less information available, which made him very distressed. In the past few days, he had always looked sad.

After all, the less information he has, the less spiritual stones he can earn.

Zhao Sheng didn't pay any attention to Zhou Quan's troubles.

After spending a month in Quanxia City, it was time for him to move around.

Deep underground in Quanxia City, there is no day or night, and there is no concept of the passage of time.

In order to calculate time, the light balls suspended in the dome will change between day and night according to the outside world, and the brightness will also change accordingly.

On this day, as the ball of light slowly dimmed, the crystal stones on the dome glowed like stars, and Quanxia City ushered in a new night.

Zhao Sheng wore a hooded robe and walked into Kuai Zai Building.

Kuaizai Tower is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Jilefang, but it is not a place for drunkenness and pleasure, but a famous media organization in Central Continent.

Rumor has it that Kuaizai Tower is an intelligence organization under the Haoran Sect, and its name comes from the word Kuaizai, which means "a little Haoran Qi, a thousand miles of joyful wind!"

After entering Kuaizai Building, Zhao Sheng saw no one at all, only an empty hall with eight gray wooden doors on the left and right.

In the center of the hall is a curtain wall with the four characters "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang" written on it.

Under each word, there is a wooden table with the words "ten thousand, thousand, hundred, ten" written on it.

Zhao Sheng walked under the word "Xuan" without hesitation, took out a middle-grade spiritual stone and placed it on the table.

Buzz!

With a soft cry, the table turned over instantly, and the spirit stone disappeared, replaced by a bronze token.

When Zhao Sheng picked up the bronze token, the third wooden door on his left suddenly opened with a bang.

Zhao Sheng did not hesitate, took the token and walked into the wooden door.

After walking through a corridor, Zhao Sheng came to a narrow room.

The room was very simple, with only a wooden table and two chairs.

An ordinary-looking middle-aged man sat behind the table, silently waiting for the guests to come in.

Zhao Sheng walked in the door and sat down directly.

"Guest, what do you want to ask?" The middle-aged man looked plain, but his voice was extremely thick and magnetic, making people feel like spring breeze.

Zhao Sheng said directly: "I want information about the Zhou family of the Great Yong Dynasty. The focus is on the information about the Zhou family's Jindan ancestor and the Ji-building clan members."

"The guest is asking about the one in Hongyangzhou?"

"good!"

"Well, the fee for information on the Jindan family generally starts from one thousand spirit stones. The specific price depends on the quality of the information collected at the end. Guests, please wait three days before coming back."

"good!"

Later, Zhao Sheng left Kuaizai Building.

Three days flew by!

Zhao Sheng came to Kuaizai Tower again and placed the token on the Xuanzi table.

The table flips and the token disappears.

Snapped!

The wooden door opened again, and Zhao Sheng walked inside in a few steps.

When I came to the last room, I saw the same middle-aged man.

As soon as this man opened his mouth, he told Zhao Sheng bad news:

"Guest, I'm very sorry! The Zhou family has purchased a prefecture-level confidentiality order from this building. Within a hundred years, this building will not sell confidential information about the Zhou family."

After Zhao Sheng heard this, he frowned.

The confidentiality level of the prefecture-level confidentiality order is extremely high. To break through its restrictions, at least heaven-level authority is required.

However, in Kuaizai Tower, heaven-level permissions are extremely difficult to obtain. It cannot be obtained by using Hua Lingshi. At least the guest must be a first-class Jindan master.

Zhao Sheng pondered for a moment and asked: "Confidential information is not enough, what about public information?"

"Well, there are one thousand spirit stones that are publicly available!"

As he spoke, the middle-aged man pushed a thin booklet in front of Zhao Sheng.

Zhao Sheng took out ten middle-grade spiritual stones and lined them up on the table, then picked up the book and put it in his storage bag.

"Farewell!"

“Guests are welcome to come again next time!”

…

Ancestor of the Zhou family

Real name: Zhou Xilai

Shouyuan: Unknown (just passed my tenth birthday a hundred years ago)

Cultivation: Unknown (late stage of Jindan a hundred years ago)

Major Kung Fu: Unknown (Fire Element)

Life experience: I went to the Earth Flame Palace in my early years...

Head of the Zhou family

Real name: Zhou Yingze

Shouyuan: unknown

Cultivation level: unknown (estimated to be nine levels of foundation building)

…

…

Zhao Sheng slowly flipped through the information booklet in his hand, and his brows furrowed more and more as he read.

Sure enough, the "public" information was not only irrelevant, but also seriously lagging behind.

Zhao Sheng had already inquired about most of the contents, and some were even ten times more detailed than what was in the brochure.

Take Zhou Yingze, the head of the Zhou family, for example. Zhao Sheng knew very well that this person had already reached the stage of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection ten years ago. Although there was no specific information now, he might have successfully advanced to the golden elixir.

But having said that, although Kuai Zai Lou's information lags behind, it is very accurate.

Most of what was recorded in the book matched the information he had heard.

An hour later, Zhao Sheng read the information booklet and secretly estimated the strength of the Zhou family.

The Zhou family currently has one ancestor who is in the late stage of the Golden elixir, and eighteen members with foundation-building combat power, including one person who is in the Dzogchen foundation-building stage, two in the late-stage foundation-building stage, six in the middle-stage foundation-building stage, nine in the early-stage foundation-building stage, and the Qi refining stage is ignored.

To sum it up, Zhao Sheng only had one sentence left in his mind: If you can't defeat him, you can only outwit him!

Opening his eyes, Zhao Sheng couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and his thoughts turned to Quanxia City.

The person in charge of the industry in Quanxia City of the Zhou family is named Zhou Zhongyu. He has three spiritual roots. His cultivation is on the second floor of the foundation building. He has a careful personality and likes wine but not lust...

Zhao Sheng thought about Zhou Zhongyu over and over again, and slowly formed a plan in his mind.

After deciding on the plan, Zhao Sheng took Zhou Quan back to Xuantie City and settled Zhou Quan properly first.

Then, he summoned the Four Vajras and ordered them to collect all kinds of spiritual wine as much as possible, including ordinary wine.

Although Chen Shaoang and others did not understand why their uncle would issue such a strange order, they did not dare to neglect and immediately gave the order.

Within a few days, hundreds of drinks of various colors were delivered to the inner courtyard of Fengyu Hall.

Then, Zhao Sheng ordered everyone to buy various medicinal materials, spices, even fruits and vegetables and other strange things.

This directly confused Chen Shaoang and others. They couldn't figure out what the uncle was going to do?

Zhao Sheng had no intention of explaining to them.

He stayed in the yard for three months without leaving the house.

Chen Shaoang and others tried several times but couldn't get the key.

But every time they came, they smelled the aroma of wine overflowing in the yard, mixed with a hint of sweet, sour, bitter and spicy smell.

Three months later, Zhao Sheng finally walked out of the yard.

Chen Shao'ang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and hurriedly reported the affairs of Feng Yutang in the past three months to his uncle.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Sheng nodded after listening to a few words and asked them to make their own decisions in the future. Don't disturb him if nothing important happens.

Two days later, Zhao Sheng left Xuantie City in a happy mood.

When he appeared again, he was already on the second floor of Xianxiafang in Quanxia City.

Zhao Sheng ordered a table of food.

After a while, special dishes such as the demon bear cooked with honey claws, the golden marrow of ten birds, the eight treasures and five colors meat, the red steamed tiger and leopard tongue, were served like water.

When the food was ready, Zhao Sheng took out a palm-sized white jade gourd.
