"Is that so? Then I must trouble Taoist Friend Luo to write a letter of introduction."

Zhou Chun pondered for a moment before ultimately agreeing.

And so, Luo Qingni wrote a letter of introduction in his presence and handed it to him.

With the letter in hand, Zhou Chun temporarily bid farewell to Luo Qingni and turned to head toward the "Heavenly Treasure Pavilion" to meet with Sun Yuanjing.

"Taoist Friend Zhang, this is the [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi] I’ve gathered in recent years. Please check the quantity carefully."

Within a private room, following some brief pleasantries, Sun Yuanjing presented Zhou Chun with the Golden Qi he had collected over the years to verify its amount.

By careful calculation, it had been over a decade since Zhou Chun had entrusted Sun Yuanjing with the task of collecting [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi]. Yet, the amount gathered still fell short of even half of what Zhou Chun required.

This, of course, left Zhou Chun far from pleased.

After examining the Golden Qi, Zhou Chun frowned and said sternly, "Manager Sun, it’s been over a decade since we established our agreement. Yet the amount of [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi] you’ve collected doesn’t even meet half of Zhou Mou’s requirements. Isn’t this progress far too slow?" freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Hearing this, Sun Yuanjing immediately cried out in protest, "Taoist Friend Zhang, you’ve wronged me! Over the years, I’ve spared no effort in gathering [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi] for you. However, in recent years, two Sword Cultivators from the Nine Elements Sword Sect successfully formed their Golden Cores, and they’ve been aggressively collecting [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi] to forge their Lifebound Flying Swords. This has made it exceedingly difficult for my shop to acquire enough of it!"

At this point, Sun Yuanjing straightened his posture and resolutely assured Zhou Chun, "But Taoist Friend Zhang, rest assured. No matter how challenging it may be, I will ensure you receive the required amount of Golden Qi within the agreed-upon time frame!"

Zhou Chun couldn’t discern whether he was being truthful or not.

However, with other plans in mind, Zhou Chun fixed his gaze on Sun Yuanjing and asked bluntly, "Is there truly no way to accelerate the collection process? To be frank, Manager Sun, this [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi] is of critical importance to Zhou Mou. If it can be gathered sooner, I wouldn’t hesitate to offer additional compensation."

Sun Yuanjing, startled by Zhou Chun’s urgency, hesitated. "This..."

He appeared apprehensive, reluctant to speak further.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun urged him, "Manager Sun, speak your mind without concern!"

Pressed by Zhou Chun, Sun Yuanjing hesitated once more before gritting his teeth and finally saying, "Here’s the situation: I do know of a Taoist Friend who has accumulated a significant amount of [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi]. It seems he intended to use it for cultivating Divine Skills. However, his cultivation efforts went awry, injuring his core foundation, and he has been seeking medical aid and remedies to address the issue."

"If Taoist Friend Zhang can assist him, he might be willing to sell his stock of [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi] to you!"

At this point, Sun Yuanjing fixed Zhou Chun with a solemn stare and added, "This matter is a private issue for that Taoist Friend. If you’re not confident in your ability to help, just treat this as if you never heard about it."

Zhou Chun understood his meaning.

Getting injured while cultivating Divine Skills was not an uncommon occurrence among Golden Core Stage cultivators.

Most Golden Core Stage cultivators, however, had enemies or rivals. Therefore, news of personal injuries was something they would never want spreading far and wide.

Even when seeking medical aid, it was done covertly, with utmost care to avoid leaks.

And Zhou Chun was no Spirit Doctor—he lacked the expertise to heal cultivation-induced internal wounds. Under normal circumstances, he would have stopped there, knowing better than to involve himself.

Yet, the [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi] was too important to him. So he asked one more question, "Can Taoist Friend Sun describe that cultivator’s condition in general terms? While I’m no Spirit Doctor, I do practice Metal Element Cultivation Methods and know some techniques for resolving harm caused by Metal Qi."

After hesitating briefly, Sun Yuanjing finally leaned closer and replied in a hushed tone, "The specifics are confidential, so I’m not entirely informed. All I know is that the Taoist Friend injured his Lung Meridian and Liver Meridian during an error in cultivating Divine Skills. As a result, he can no longer sit for meditation or fight in duels as he used to."

"Injuries to the Lung and Liver Meridians, eh?"

Zhou Chun muttered to himself, thoughts whirling in his mind. Soon after, he turned to Sun Yuanjing and said, "Manager Sun, could you pass along a message to that Taoist Friend? Say that Zhou Mou wishes to purchase his stock of [Taiyi Profound Gold Qi]. If he’s open to the idea, I’d be willing to examine his condition personally and see if I can assist in restoring his health."

This request seemed to trouble Sun Yuanjing greatly, leaving him silent for a long time.

Just as Zhou Chun began to lose hope, Sun Yuanjing suddenly let out a long sigh and said, "Alright, very well. I’ll take on this responsibility and relay your message to that Taoist Friend. I only hope that Taoist Friend Zhang truly has a way to heal his injuries!"

Hearing this, Zhou Chun’s heart surged with joy. He clasped his hands in gratitude and said, "Thank you, Manager Sun! If this matter succeeds, Zhou Mou will owe you a great favor!"

After concluding this matter, Zhou Chun did not linger at the "Heavenly Treasure Pavilion" and quickly departed.

Upon leaving the "Heavenly Treasure Pavilion," he walked straight toward the location of the Tianzhi Tower.

"Zhou Mou wishes to know every notable assembly within the Great Zhou Kingdom over the past five years that Golden Core Stage cultivators might attend—be it exchange conferences, underground Treasure Exchange Assemblies, underground auctions, or grand auction events. The more detailed, the better!"

Inside the Tianzhi Tower, Zhou Chun stated his intentions directly to the shopkeeper upon entry.
