Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Ji had just realized that his current assets seemed to be quite abundant. He had nearly 6,000 spiritual crystals on his account and more than 7,000 spiritual crystals in his storage bag. Zhou Ji felt that he could bring his daughter along for a bit of luxury. No matter how bitter he was, he could not let his daughter suffer. 

It was not that the inner city was not open to people. All people who were not residents of the inner city or invited by residents of the inner city had to pay a spiritual crystal to enter the inner city. No matter how big or small it was, it was calculated according to the number of people. 

Of course, Zhou Ji directly used his jade token to sense and spent 68 spiritual crystals to book a luxurious sea-view room at the Wanfang Hotel in the inner city for one night. In less than a minute, a special floating shuttle came to pick him up and bring him into the city. 

In this way, he did not have to pay the entrance fee and could be considered to have saved two spiritual crystals. 

The security of the big city was good. For the next day, Zhou Ji did not encounter any accidents. He just brought his daughter to have a stroll and eat. It was not until the next morning that they packed up and headed to the port. 

They were going to take the floating shuttle. Due to the wide waterway, this kind of floating shuttle was extremely huge. In terms of size, it matched with the huge ships that Zhou Ji had seen in his previous life. 

This time, Zhou Ji had specially booked a special ticket and went through a special passage. There were not many people waiting in line. However, among the ten or so people, Zhou Ji found a familiar figure. 

“Dude, our luck is really good. We meet again.” The young man wore a short-sleeved shirt and a cap, looking like he was on an outing. 

Seeing this person, Zhou Ji’s face turned cold. 

Perhaps it was because he was in the city, the young man was very relaxed at this time. 

“Oh right, I haven’t introduced myself yet. My name is Yue Wu, you can call me Little Wu. Are you bringing your daughter out for a trip?” 

Zhou Ji turned his head away, completely ignoring this person. Although his two lifetimes were plain and dull, he was not stupid. From the attitude of the Wangfang Trading Company, it was not difficult to guess that the people from Blood Eagle Fort were hired to kill people. And based on what Zhou Ji learned from the employment agency, only eight people survived the floating shuttle accident last time. In addition to himself and Xiao Rui, there was also a family of three and a couple. 

This young man who traveled alone was the most suspicious! 

“Dude, since we were fated to meet again, why don’t we exchange our contact information?” The young man named Yue Wu came to Zhou Ji’s side and was very friendly. 

“I don’t know you, and I don’t want to know you.” Zhou Ji looked at this person coldly, thinking about why this guy would pester him. 

Or… This guy was pestering his daughter? 

Zhou Ji’s first reaction was like this. 

His daughter was not even four years old, but she was already at the first level of the Qi Cultivation Realm. This talent was considered a super monster among all the information that Zhou Ji knew. Previously, in order to cover up for his daughter, Zhou Ji improved the Breath Concealing Spell and taught her, suppressing the fluctuation of spiritual essence to an extremely low level. Of course, Zhou Ji was able to see through the Breath Concealing Spell at this level with just one look. 

“I think you still want to know me.” Yue Wu looked around, pulled Zhou Ji to the side, and pointed around. 

In the next moment, Zhou Ji felt the surroundings quiet down. 

The wind blade was already prepared, and it directly pressed against Yue Wu’s neck. 

Again?! 

Yue Wu’s hair stood on end, but he forcefully suppressed it. He knew that the person in front of him was very powerful. This time, he was also prepared for this person’s elusive wind blades, but he did not expect that he still could not defend himself. 

“Dude, please show mercy. I just want to make an exchange with you!” 

Yue Wu hurriedly begged for mercy. 

“Be honest. The attack on the floating shuttle was because of you, right?” 

Zhou Ji looked around. This seemed to be a kind of shielding spell. Although the range was very small, it could isolate the inside and the outside. 

“You are wise. Hehe, I’m actually the son of a concubine from a side family. Because I’m more talented, I fell into a trap and was lured out to be killed.” 

Yue Wu looked at Zhou Ji with a very sincere gaze, and his expression was a little pitiful. 

“Tsk…” 

When Zhou Ji heard this, he immediately turned around and was about to break through the range of the shielding spell. Regardless of whether this guy called Yue Wu was telling the truth or not, what he said was not something that he could participate in. Even though he was now in the Foundation Establishment stage, in the circle of these people, he was just cannon fodder. 

“Dude, don’t you want to hear what I’m going to use to trade?” Seeing that Zhou Ji was about to leave, Yue Wu hurriedly asked. 

However, Zhou Ji did not stop. He felt that there would be problems even if he listened to this kind of thing more. 

“Your daughter’s Breath Control is not bad, but the fluctuation of her spiritual essence can not be hidden. Such a monstrous talent will definitely be contested…” 

Yue Wu stopped halfway through his sentence. A two-centimeter-long wound appeared on his Adam’s apple. Blood dripped down, and the appearance of the wind blade could be vaguely seen. 

Sigh… as expected, it was still difficult to have a daughter who was too monstrous. 

Actually, Zhou Ji also thought so. He didn’t think that being too monstrous would be a good thing in this era. If his daughter really came from one of those big cultivation clans, that would be fine, but if she was just the daughter of a commoner like him.. 

“I have a jade talisman here that can conceal all auras. Anyone below the crystal realm can not detect it even if they are face-to-face. If a spirit realm cultivator with a core formation realm doesn’t pay attention, they won’t be able to detect it!” 

Zhou Ji was slightly startled. He finally stopped and turned around to look at the young man called Yue Wu. “How long can it last?” 

Jade talismans were tools that could trigger a certain effect after engraving an array formation. They were divided into two types. One was permanent, and the other was effective for a limited period of time. The popular jade talisman was actually a kind of permanent jade talisman, legend had it that this thing could already be mass-processed through a formation. 

“Three years… No, it should still be two and a half years from now!” Yue Wu saw Zhou Ji Stop and hurriedly said. 

“What are the conditions? I won’t be your bodyguard. If you want to hire me, then forget it,” Zhou Ji said faintly. “If it really doesn’t work, I can join the Bai family.” 

The Bai family was the Master of planet Bai 12. Even the galaxy where planet Bai 12 was located and all the star clusters nearby were under their management. However, this was of course the worst-case scenario. 

He admitted that he was tempted. 

It was impossible for such things to be circulated on the market. If he could get a copy here, Zhou Ji’s worries could be put to rest a lot. 

Hearing Zhou Ji talk about the Bai family.., Yue Wu smiled lightly. “Actually, I just want to ask you to bring me to the Heavenly Armor City No. 1 . Right now, their search is focused on the solitary youth. Let’s form a team. I’ll pretend to be your younger brother. How about it?” 

They were in the same line of work? 

Zhou Ji looked around without batting an eyelid. 

“Give me the item first, and we’ll have a deal. I’ll only bring you along. Don’t even think about me making a move!” 

“What if you turn against me?” 

Seeing that Zhou Ji agreed so readily, Yue Wu became suspicious. 

Zhou Ji did not say much and turned around to leave. His daughter was too powerful and so on. If he could not hide it, then he would not hide it. When the time came, he would also have a rare commodity to live on. 

“No, no, no, Dude, wait! The thing is here!” 

Yue Wu saw that Zhou Ji wanted to leave again, so he quickly used the Object Control Spell to pass a ring-shaped jade pendant over. 

Zhou Ji grabbed the jade pendant, and after feeling that there was nothing unusual, he hung it around his daughter’s neck and tucked it into her clothes. After doing all this, Zhou Ji used the probing technique to look at Xiao Rui, who had been tightly curled up in his arms since the beginning. 

The effect of the marking technique was still there, so he could still sense it. However, no matter how he looked at it, she was just an ordinary person with a cultivation level. 

“The effect is not bad. My name is Zhou.” 

“Zhou?” When Yue Wu heard this name, he muttered to himself. Of course, he did not believe that this was his real name. However, after thinking about it, his name did not seem to be his real name, so he did not say anything more. 

“Zhou, I booked a special class cabin suite. There are three rooms. We can stay together. Later, you can follow me up.” 

Seeing that the effect of the shielding spell was getting weaker and weaker, he quickly added. 

“Okay.” 

Zhou Ji nodded. They were just a group to confuse people. If anything happened, he would take his daughter and run away immediately..
