Chapter 249 Extra - A Bonus? (2/2)

Ruan Tang's breath hitched for a second.

Without a second thought, Yan Yu took out three high-grade spirit stones from his storage bracelet and handed them over.

The spirit stone flashed with light, and a dense spiritual aura spread out, attracting the attention of several stall owners nearby.

The stall owner suddenly looked up, his eyes fixed on Yan Yu under his straw hat, and snatched the spirit stones away.

His gaze swept over Yan Yu, as if he were sizing him up.

Finally, he let out a hoarse laugh.

"The young man is very straightforward, unlike those who try to take advantage of others."

"Having this thing with me is a hassle. Since you dared to buy it with high-grade spirit stones, you should also be able to handle the aftermath."

Before he could finish speaking, he pulled a crumpled animal hide from his pocket and quickly stuffed it into Yan Yu's hand.

"The beads are the bait, and the fish are the bait. Whether you can catch them or not depends on your luck."

After saying that, he quickly rolled up the spread-out cloth, packed his things, and turned to disappear into the shadows in the corner.

They disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ruan Tang was a little confused by his actions and inexplicable words.

She put the string of water-repelling beads into her spatial storage before accepting the animal hide that Yan Yu handed her.

It feels quite heavy when you hold it.

An ancient aura emanated from my palm.

Ruan Tang carefully probed her spiritual energy into it.

With a buzz, a tattered map unfolded in her mind.

The routes on the map are already very blurry.

Her divine sense looked at the most worn lower right corner, where there was a small vortex pattern.

Next to the pattern, four small characters that were almost invisible suddenly lit up as spiritual energy was injected.

Ruins of Dragon's Rest.

Ruan Tang's fingertips trembled, and her heart clenched suddenly.

That is the burial ground of ancient dragons, containing the dragon race's heritage and countless treasures.

Its location has always been a secret in the cultivation world, and it has never been shown on the map.

Who would have thought that she would get this map here, in this way?

Ruan Tang suppressed her shock, her face expressionless, and casually stuffed the animal hide into her storage bracelet.

Just then, a huge roar came from the other end of the market.

"Grab him! He stole the map!"

"Quick, don't let him get away!"

boom!

The crowd immediately became chaotic.

The light of magic flew everywhere, accompanied by screams and curses.

Chaos erupted in the crowded passageway; some people were injured.

Many cultivators, their eyes bloodshot, rushed madly into the center of the riot, their faces filled with greed.

"map?"

Ruan Tang's heart skipped a beat.

What a coincidence?

She subconsciously touched the storage bracelet on her wrist. The animal hide map lay quietly inside.

She turned her head sharply and met Yan Yu's gaze.

The man's face remained expressionless, but the fingers gripping her wrist suddenly tightened.

"Walk."

Yan Yu only said one word, his voice was very cold.

Without further hesitation, the two walked quickly towards the outside of the market, going against the flow of people.

The noise and sounds of fighting behind them grew fainter and fainter. The stalls were overturned, magical artifacts were shattered on the ground, and the stench of blood wafted over.

They did not turn back.

A map that can cause a frenzy of buying is definitely not a good thing in this perilous Gobi Desert city.

And this one in their hands...

It will only get worse.

Going to join in any kind of fun now is tantamount to courting death.

With their unremarkable faces, the two quickly squeezed out of the chaotic market and disappeared into the crowd at the street corner.

Upon returning to his cave dwelling, Yan Yu immediately activated the room's protective barrier.

Ruan Tang closed the door behind her and immediately took out the array plate from her storage bracelet.

As spiritual energy was injected, with a hum, an invisible light barrier completely sealed off the entire room.

She then affixed several more soundproofing talismans, before pulling Yan Yu along and, with a thought, directly entering the spatial dimension. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
