Chapter 313 The Painting Of The Water Moon
"Master Wuxin, I've been looking for you to have tea, but I couldn't find you. So you're here."
Just as Lu Yu was engaged in a battle of wits with Master Wuxin, a hearty voice suddenly rang out.
"The city lord has arrived!"
Lu Yu was overjoyed.
The city lord of Gongyue City was also a powerful Nascent Soul realm cultivator, stronger than Master Wuxin.
As long as he intervened, Master Wuxin would have no reason to act without concrete evidence.
Sure enough, after hearing this voice, Master Wuxin turned his head in frustration and looked towards the city lord not far away.
"My disciple got lost in your city, so I've been searching everywhere."
"Oh? Isn't your disciple a strong cultivator in the late Foundation Building stage? Could he be a guest here?"
The city lord glanced at Lu Yu and asked with a surprised expression.
Lu Yu's strength was basically transparent, only at the mid Foundation Building stage.
However, his alchemy skills were quite good and worth winning over.
"I left my disciple's protective treasure here, but I couldn't find him. City Lord of Gongyue, I think you should give me an explanation."
"Alright, I will send people to search everywhere for your beloved disciple. Even if we have to dig three feet under Gongyue City, we will find him."
The city lord's words sounded impressive, but whether they could actually find the person was another matter. Moreover, his appearance was so coincidental that Lu Yu always felt that he must know something.
"Then I'll trouble the city lord."
Master Wuxin sighed helplessly.
Now they only had one treasure in their hands, and even if someone said they found it, he couldn't do anything about it.
When under someone else's roof, one had to bow their head. Besides, he didn't really have much confidence in the other party.
It took him so many resources just to cultivate to the late Foundation Building stage, which was a waste of his talent and resources.
"Fellow Daoist, although we haven't found the wicked disciple, can you return his treasure to me?"
Lu Yu was slightly conflicted.
This bowl was indeed very useful. It could easily kill a cultivator in the Foundation Building stage, and it seemed to pose a threat to those in the Gold Core stage.
It was a good item.
"Alright, since the treasure belongs to Master Wuxin, let's return it to its rightful owner."
It wasn't worth offending a Nascent Soul expert for a treasure.
Even with the city lord of Gongyue present, he could only hand over the treasure.
Under the pressure of the city lord of Gongyue, Master Wuxin left with his own treasure.
Watching them leave, Lu Yu had an unhappy expression on his face.
"I got the treasure and then gave it away again!"
He glanced at the Fairy Wan Yue beside him with a helpless look.
"Just let it go. We didn't come away empty-handed."
"Empty-handed? Are you talking about the pile of fertilizer?"
Lu Yu smiled bitterly.
After killing Fang Ming, all that was left was a pile of black water. It was impossible to tell what it used to be when it flowed into the soil.
But after all, it was the body of a cultivator in the Foundation Building stage, so the nutrients in that black water were still abundant.
Lu Yu believed that the flowers in the backyard would definitely bloom well next year.
"So you were only focused on that broken bowl in his hand? Look at this!"
Fairy Wan Yue sighed lightly and then raised a small cloth bag.
"Hey, it's Fang Ming's storage bag! Where did you get this from?"
Lu Yu was overjoyed when he saw the storage bag.
Previously, when dealing with the body, he was in a hurry and forgot to search Fang Ming's body for any other treasures. Now it seemed that Fairy Wan Yue was indeed experienced.
As soon as he thought of this, he suddenly shivered.
Looking at the innocent and natural Wan Yue Fairy, it seemed that she was not as simple as she appeared on the surface.
"Quick, let's see if there's anything good inside. Since such a powerful treasure was stolen, we should find some psychological balance."
Slightly dazed, his thoughts once again fell on the storage bag.
This storage bag was obviously extraordinary, with a material much stronger than an ordinary storage bag. It was even better than some slightly inferior storage rings and bracelets.
"There are quite a few things, but not many good ones."
Wan Yue Fairy probed with her divine sense and said slightly disappointedly.
After speaking, she opened the storage bag and poured out everything on the table.
First were some spirit stones, probably a dozen of medium grade. Just these spirit stones alone, Lu Yu felt they were worth it.
Apart from the spirit stones, the next things that were poured out were several bottles of elixirs.
These elixirs were a bit disappointing.
Lu Yu himself was an alchemist, so these elixirs were simply not worth mentioning to him.
"What a bad luck, they are all worthless elixirs."
While checking, he disdainfully threw those elixirs aside.
These things were not worth much anyway, so he would deal with them later.
Besides the elixirs, the next things were miscellaneous items.
Like a fire starter, some tools used for traveling, and so on. Anyway, there didn't seem to be anything valuable.
The more Lu Yu looked, the more disappointed he felt. The value of these things was far inferior to that bowl.
Perhaps his disappointment was too obvious on his face, Wan Yue Fairy, who was taking things out, smiled lightly.
Then a scroll fell out of the storage bag.
This was the last item in the storage bag.
Seeing this scroll, Lu Yu didn't pay much attention to it.
After all, he was now a cultivator, and he was used to recording important things with jade slips.
As for scrolls like this, they were only considered when one's strength was weak.
"Why not open and see what's written on the scroll?"
"What's the use? Could it be a treasure map even more important than that? Speaking of important things, who doesn't use jade slips now."
Although he said that, he still released his divine sense to take a look at the scroll.
This was the advantage of divine sense. He didn't need to open this kind of scroll at all. He could clearly see what was written on it with his divine sense. Moreover, using divine sense was even clearer than using his eyes, not missing any details.
"Huh!"
Glancing at it casually, Lu Yu suddenly found that there seemed to be something unusual in the scroll.
What was painted inside was a map.
This map was drawn very delicately, so delicate that every blade of grass and every tree on it seemed real.
He had never seen such a detailed map before.
Even if this was just a Feng Shui painting, the artistic level was probably not low.
"What map is this? It seems like I've never seen this place before."
"I don't know where the map is, but I know the person who painted this. Look at the bottom right corner of the painting."
Wan Yue Fairy confidently pointed to the bottom right corner of the painting.
Only to see a line of small characters written in the bottom right corner of the painting.
"Painted by Mr. Shuiyue for Mr. Modu."
Guessing that Lu Yu might not know the identities of these two people, she gave him a brief introduction.
"This Mr. Shuiyue is a famous painter, known as the specialist in painting treasure maps!"
"Ah? Could this painting really be a treasure map?"
Lu Yu didn't expect to lose a treasure and then obtain a treasure map. It seemed that the heavens were indeed favoring him.
