This Breakthrough was very smooth.
Su Bai originally thought she would encounter some unexpected issues, but it went more smoothly than she could have imagined.
Not only was there no external interference, but she didn't even encounter the Bottleneck that typically comes with a Realm Breakthrough.
"This must be the result of accumulating a lot before releasing it."
Currently, Su Bai was walking through the Outer City of Xingluo Market.
Having just paid one Low-Grade Spirit Stone to enter, she felt like she was floating as she walked, and everyone she saw on the road seemed incredibly pleasing to her eyes.
Even though it was sunny today, she felt the sunlight was much brighter.
"This Fellow Daoist looks so familiar, have we met somewhere before? Oh, right, as a friend, I'll tell you a secret: I just got a treasure said to be a fragment of an ancient Magic Treasure. Could you take a look? I happen to be short on Spirit Stones recently, so I'll sell it to you cheap!"
Su Bai was just walking along the road.
Suddenly, a shifty-eyed Cultivator flashed out from beside her.
He immediately pulled Su Bai over to ingratiate himself.
Then he pulled out a rusty iron piece and started boasting about it.
"Fellow Daoist, we hit it off at first sight, that's why I'm selling it to you cheap!"
Su Bai found herself wanting to laugh at this shifty-eyed fellow.
Was she really the type of person who looked ignorant and easy to deceive?
Su Bai's Face showed a half-smile.
As for that so-called ancient Magic Treasure fragment, it was clearly fake.
He had just taken some fragments of a Magical Artifact and made them look old.
It probably could only fool those who were new to the world.
Su Bai was an Artifact Refiner herself; ordinary people couldn't deceive her!
Just as Su Bai was about to speak, wanting to chat a bit more with this swindler, as she was in a good mood now.
At that moment, an angry shout came from the side.
"Er Laizi! You're scamming people again! Get out of here!"
A young man ran over from the side, full of anger, as if he wanted to beat this Cultivator named Er Laizi soundly.
Seeing that his deception failed, Er Laizi didn't linger and quickly ran away.
As he ran, he left behind a harsh warning:
"Wang Shi, you've ruined my good deed again, just you wait!"
And Wang Shi, who was cursed by Er Laizi, had already run up to Su Bai.
"Senior, you didn't fall for that scoundrel's trick, did you?"
The other party seemed very concerned about Su Bai.
This was because Wang Shi was one of the youngsters who used to be with Han Xue.
Five years had passed, and those little fellows had now grown into young men and women.
"It's Little Stone. Don't worry, such a trick can't deceive me."
"Are you still working as a guide now?"
Su Bai had spent half a year on her Body Refining Third Realm Breakthrough.
She needed to ask someone about some things in the Market.
Wang Shi coming over was a good opportunity to ask about the recent situation in the Market.
Wang Shi scratched his head a bit awkwardly; he knew that guiding people wasn't a long-term job, but that was all he was capable of.
Han Xue's elder brother wasn't around, and they still had to live.
Su Bai glanced at Wang Shi, Qi Refining Third Layer.
For a half-grown young man, this Realm was just average.
"Little Stone, have you heard of the Night Sparrow Gang?"
"Night Sparrow Gang? I have!"
Wang Shi became excited when Su Bai mentioned the Night Sparrow Gang.
"The Six Upper Sects now open their Sect gates to recruit disciples every ten years. The Night Sparrow Gang is said to have some connection with the Upper Sects and can send many children in every year."
"Moreover, the Night Sparrow Gang is a famous large Gang in the Outer City, managing many industries, ranging from restaurants and eateries to street stalls in small alleys."
"Hehehe, we children who grew up in the Outer City really admire the Night Sparrow Gang Cultivators."
Wang Shi awkwardly rubbed the back of his head.
He knew Su Bai was from the Inner City, but he had never been to the Inner City.
Su Bai also hadn't talked much about herself in detail.
But in Wang Shi's eyes, Su Bai's identity must be very noble.
The Night Sparrow Gang, which was formidable in his eyes, might not be so in Su Bai's eyes.
So, after realizing this, he felt a bit embarrassed.
Su Bai nodded.
Yan Lei should not have recovered from his injuries and left yet, so she would do another good deed.
So Su Bai said:
"I have some connections in the Night Sparrow Gang. If you want, I can send you in to work."
After Su Bai finished speaking, Wang Shi was startled.
The Night Sparrow Gang was a local tyrant in the Outer City.
There were many small Families in the Outer City, but few could contend with the Night Sparrow Gang.
The Six Sects did not pay much attention to the Outer City.
Within the Inner City, the Green Bamboo Sword Sect supported more than just the Xu Family; there were other Families as well, and other Sects also had Families they supported, but Xu Changge's ability was too outstanding.
She directly occupied a place on Seven Stars Mountain.
Perhaps before, there were other Families that could shake the Xu Family's position.
But with Xu Changge's Core Formation, the Xu Family's position became even more stable.
Now the Xu Family was already considered the top Family under the Green Bamboo Sword Sect.
Even if there were a few other Families that also had Core Formation Cultivators, they couldn't compare to Xu Changge, because Xu Changge was still young!
Moreover, Xu Changge had already entered the Green Bamboo Sword Sect as a Deacon.
The next step would be to compete for the Sect's Outer Sect Elder position.
Wang Shi's eyes widened, and he somewhat disbelievingly dug at his ears. He opened his mouth and murmured:
"Really?!"
"I have a chance to enter the Night Sparrow Gang?!"
Seeing Wang Shi's reaction, Su Bai chuckled and shook her head.
It was only then that she realized, without knowing it, how much influence she already wielded in Xingluo Market.
The Night Sparrow Gang, which was unapproachable in Wang Shi's eyes.
But in fact, their Gang Leader was working for Su Bai.
Su Bai motioned for Wang Shi to calm down first.
"The Night Sparrow Gang will still give me, Su Bai, some Face. Don't worry, getting you into the Night Sparrow Gang is just a word from me."
After speaking, Su Bai walked ahead, intending to take Wang Shi to the Night Sparrow Gang.
Wang Shi excitedly followed behind Su Bai.
Then he noticed Su Bai stopped.
"What's wrong, Senior?"
Su Bai looked back at Wang Shi a bit awkwardly.
She scratched her Face awkwardly and said:
"Cough, um, Little Stone, could you lead me to the Night Sparrow Gang's headquarters? I don't know where their Gang is located now."
Su Bai's eyes darted left and right at this moment, avoiding looking at Wang Shi. She could feel her authority as a Senior shattered into pieces at this moment.
Wang Shi was dumbfounded.
Su Bai's words instantly plunged his previously excited mood to rock bottom.
If Wang Shi was just fantasizing about how he would show off to his friends after joining the Night Sparrow Gang.
Then now, he could only pray that when they arrived at the Night Sparrow Gang headquarters, they wouldn't be directly kicked out.
Wang Shi's cheek twitched, and he sighed.
She said she had connections in the Night Sparrow Gang.
He only hoped there really were connections.
Wang Shi felt somewhat uneasy, but he still led Su Bai to the Night Sparrow Gang.
After all, Su Bai was from the Inner City of Xingluo Market; she wouldn't speak big words.
She should really know someone from the Night Sparrow Gang, it's just that the person she knows probably isn't of a high status.
Otherwise, Su Bai wouldn't even know where the Night Sparrow Gang was.
After all, anyone who had lived in the Outer City for a while would know the Night Sparrow Gang.
Looking at Wang Shi, who was leading the way with a dejected look, Su Bai chuckled twice:
"Young man, don't worry, that Night Sparrow Gang really has to give me, your Senior, some Face. Just you wait and see."
"Alright! Senior, I believe you!"
