Xiao System: Diviner Yi Hua
Gravel and Stone On The Way, A Problem

"Clean the saliva on your chin, Diviner Yi," said Ling Xiao who somehow felt ignorant when he saw Yi Hua's innocent face.

Usually Yi Hua looked arrogant and tried to look cunning. However, now this fortune teller looks like a child who is thinking long. He seemed to daydream and snatch occasionally, as if he was talking inwardly.

Very enticing.

Yi Hua's gaze led to Ling Xiao this time. Yi Hua subconsciously rubbed his own chin to make sure. And, it turned out that Ling Xiao was just teasing him. Yi Hua snatched away an annoyance, feeling bullied by the old uncles.

"However, this necklace is not a member necklace owned by Hua Yifeng. I found it in the Valley of Dust. It seemed like someone rich had just flashed around the Dust Valley. He seemed to be heading to the Lower Kingdom, and died from the storm. Luckily this member's necklace did not have a name on it," explained Ling Xiao who was smiling sweetly at Yi Hua.

Huan Ran seemed to be thinking. "But, the auction in the Lower Kingdom is only held once every 1 year."

Thas right. Because not every day there are expensive items, and not every day also important people smelling money can gather. They must be busy making money. And, wasting it in the Phoenix Kingdom.

"If this person wants to cross the lane faster, that means the auction is soon." Yi Hua suddenly spoke.

More than anything ... Why did this person pass through this dangerous Valley of Dust? Why not just turn it around for the welfare of his life?

It must be because he doesn't have enough time. And, because of that choice the person really has no time left, which is to die here. It's unfortunate to remember.

"We don't have much time" said Huan Ran who guided Liu Xingsheng to get up.

And, naturally Liu Xingsheng got up. It was as if Liu Xingsheng's entire organs were not paralyzed. Only his brain is paralyzed. How do you explain this weirdness?

"But I don't know where the Underworld is. I am not a member," Ling Xiao continued.

Ah right. Wasn't Hua Yifeng a member of the Lower Kingdom auction?

"Xiao, is there any way to communicate with Hua Yifeng without having to look for that person where? We don't even know where Hua Yifeng is" Yi Hua said in his heart.

"Only the person who owns the necklace knows its exact location. This Ling Diviner only found it, so he did not know about its location," Xiao explained directly.

"So, the only person__ I mean a creature we can ask is Mr Hua?" asked Yi Hua weakly. He did not want to meet Hua Yifeng.

The story is in a cold war, you know!

THE CLUCK!

Xiao did not answer, the door opened. There was Yue Yan who was again with his water bowl. This time, there was a small amount of smoke on it. Yue Yan's omen actually heated up the water as per Yi Hua's request.

"Until where did you hear?" huan Ran asked with a sharp look.

Yet Yue Yan only walked while carrying that bowl of water. The man placed it onto the table beside Ling Xiao.

"Not many. I came as you guys talked wanting to come to the auction," Yue Yan explained easily.

Xiao confirmed Yue Yan's remark. It seemed like Yue Yan had indeed just come.

"And also ... I know where the Underworld Kingdom lies. Five more days the Underworld Kingdom will hold an Auction," Yue Yan continued while kissing the small snake that came out from his arm.

Since when did this person start to enter on their journey?

***

"Now tell me why did you find out about the location of this Underworld Kingdom?" yi Hua asked in the end.

After the storm passed, they left Ling Xiao's residence. Fortunately the storm lasted only last night, and the next morning they could leave. Actually Huan Ran had a slightly impatient tendency, but because it was still a storm Huan Ran also could not force away at that moment.

Then, as is well known, if passing through the Valley of Dust will be closer than passing through the sea city, so they will not travel far. Lucky when they just came out of the Dust Valley they got a ride. The one who gave them a ride was the merchant entourage. They kindly gave up one of their cars to ride by these four*.

*the four people were Yi Hua, Yue Yan, and Huan Ran and Liu Xingsheng.

And, inside the carriage it was clear they were just facing each other without speaking before. Because yeah .. they're not familiar at all. Especially Huan Ran who did not talk much.

So Yi Hua's question earlier was the first conversation after they boarded the carriage.

Yue Yan sighed bitterly. "Why do you know?"

"Because if you lie to us, I will kick your head right now," Yi Hua replied calmly.

"You must be kidding," said Yue Yan who looked at Yi Hua in disbelief.

But the fortuneteller looked outwards to pay attention to this vast city without answering. Although not as large as the City Center, but the city is also quite advanced. And, since this city was still in the territory of the Li Kingdom they had to be careful that there were no royal people there. Who could have guessed if the warrior ordered by the kingdom would search all the way here later.

Yue Yan who realized that Yi Hua was not joking. Since he was afraid of being kicked by Yi Hua, Yue Yan immediately replied quickly. "I once tried to find something to defeat Shen Qibo. Unfortunately, I only know the place without it."

What Yue Yan meant was that Phoenix necklace. It's free to know the place, but you can't get in. Only with this Phoenix necklace could they enter it. What a wonderful care, and impressed 'expensive'.

But ...

"You should have easily walked in without this necklace. You can spread your snake and cause damage everywhere" continued Yi Hua who just remembered that this time Yue Yan was like following the rules.

Yue Yan looked at Yi Hua annoyed. "What kind of person are you looking at?"

"Are you not going to ruin it if you can?" ask Yi Hua again.

Yue Yan simply kept silent and turned his gaze to Huan Ran. However, from the beginning Huan Ran did not care about Yue Yan. As seen, if Yue Yan was messy and destructive, then Huan Ran was cleaner and did not like the commotion. Therefore, these two people cannot exchange stories like mothers in the market.

Seeing Huan Ran close his eyes, whether sleeping or not, Yue Yan spoke to Yi Hua again. "That's it, Yi Hua. Do you want me to help or not? Now I'm your only key to finding the Underworld. Just so you know that the Underworld Kingdom wouldn't be so respected if it was just a place you could enter as well as your head. Even a king has to have that necklace and then they can get in."

This s*alan!

Yi Hua smiled cunningly. "All we need is your memory of the Underworld Kingdom. Now that you choose, you want to show me the place alive or I'll ask your brain."

You want to play sneaky to me?! Can't, Snake.

"HuaHua, why have you been getting cruel lately?" xiao asked who was again reciting a religious mantra so that Yi Hua would be closer to the right path.

"You won't dare to kill me, Yi Hua? Besides, how can you ask my memory?" asked Yue Yan hysterically.

The position Yue Yan was currently sitting beside Yi Hua. While Huan Ran and Liu Xingsheng were sitting before them. So that Yue Yan distanced his body from Yi Hua, he stuck to the wall of the carriage. This made Yue Yan feel the shock of the carriage violently. The territory they passed through was rocky territory apparently..

However Yi Hua was coming nosy, so Yi Hua used her talisman paper to rub Yue Yan's face. It was noticeable that Yue Yan believed Yi Hua's words. Therefore, Yi Hua used it to make Yue Yan have no intention of lying to them.

What if Yue Yan pointed out the wrong path?

"You wanna try it? So you need to know if I have a way if you don't want to tell the truth" Yi Hua asked with a haughty look.

"One day I'll kill you." That was all Yue Yan could say to Yi Hua, although Yue Yan himself was unsure.

However, with ease Yi Hua again sat in his place. He watched Liu Xingsheng who opened his eyes. Ling Xiao said, although it looked empty but Liu Xingsheng might be able to see what the people around him were doing. Perhaps if Liu Xingsheng was as aware as ever, the man would be even more noisy than Yue Yan.

Well, as a loyal worker of Liu Xingsheng I will help him return.

That was all Yi Hua could say. Because, his life now is only based on the benefits of each. So Yi Hua did not need to regard Liu Xingsheng's existence as something important. Just as Yi Hua was looking for his money.

He had two friends, and they had a bad fate. It was so painful to remember. Therefore, in this life he does not need to be friends anymore. He must survive without depending on others

Always alone.

So is he with himself.

TUKS!

TUKS!

TUKS!

CRITES

Yi Hua who fell asleep for a moment immediately woke up. He rubbed his mouth just to be sure. And, Yi Hua's eyes met Huan Ran's wary eyes. The journey by train is long enough. They were also just hitchhiking at the merchants they had just met.

Yi Hua pushed aside the curtains of the carriage, and they reached the bustling territory. Have they entered the city area?

"Yue Yan," called Yi Hua softly.

However, there was no answer from the man. So Yi Hua turned to Yue Yan who was asleep. The snakes belonging to Yue Yan seemed to be sleeping soundly on Yue Yan's lap. How can a scene like this be so ordinary?

Though the serpent alone if we see it will make possessed souls reign. Especially if this snake roams around our body like a cat. Oh gosh. The endless Yi Hua admired the diversity of humans.

STAK!

"What ... What ..." yelled Yue Yan who woke up suddenly as Yi Hua kicked her leg.

Therefore, Yue Yang's snakes fell down from his lap. They were on standby and hissing at Yi Hua. However it was only temporary, because when Huan Ran stared intently at the snake, they immediately pushed to hide inside his clothes Yue Yan.

"Why did you kick me?" yue Yan shouted in disbelief.

Yi Hua sighed. "The train stopped."

Yue Yan also became wary. He peeked on the other side. And immediately tell Yi Hua.

"This is the most crowded area in the city. It seems like these merchants are resting at the inn," Yue Yan said as he pointed at a large building beside the carriage.

Yi Hua looked at Huan Ran for an opinion. "It looks like we just need to get off this train. At least we've saved time by taking their train."

This is the risk of riding someone else's vehicle. Not necessarily they want to drive to their destination.

After all, the Phoenix Kingdom was a secret territory. Yi Hua was not sure if the carriage driver would be able to drive them to their destination.

"Yi Hua, our goal is the same as these merchants," Yue Yan suddenly said.

Whahuh? So, these merchants also turned out to want to head for the Lower Kingdom?

"I saw the leader of this troupe using a Phoenix necklace. But obviously we can not ride on them openly heading to the Lower Kingdom," said Huan Ran who also found out.

Everyone who came to the Phoenix Kingdom had to come up with a secret. Even Yue Yan said, even if they enter, they must use a mask or face mask. No one should know if you're a member of the Lower Kingdom.

Because it will endanger the customer. In the auction there will be a massive offer and submission of prices to find the highest price. If anyone knows you're rich, let alone getting 'rare objects' from there, then you'll be hunted by your opponent at auction.

"HuaHua, someone came," Xiao said.

Yi Hua put his index finger in front of his lips so they would not talk anymore.

"Yue Yan, enter your snakes. Don't let them see that you have a pet" Yi Hua said.

SRETT!

GECK!

GECK!

GECK!

Sure enough someone knocked on their train door. Yi Hua with her friendly face immediately opened the curtain.

"What's wrong?" yi Hua asked in a polite tone.

The one who came to them was a guard.

"Mr Qiu called out to the Lords to speak," the guard said as he pointed towards the inn.

It seemed like they were indeed about to rest, as well as 'drive' the guests who were hitching a ride on this train of theirs. So Yi Hua replied to him politely. "We'll say goodbye and thank you. Apparently we have already reached the city," Yi Hua replied with a friendly smile.

The guard opened the carriage door for them, and Yi Hua immediately got off followed by Yue Yan. While Huan Ran also went down while welcoming Liu Xingsheng who had been wearing Huan Ran face coverings like a woman.

They had no choice but to hide Liu Xingsheng, because it would be strange if they knew the state of this man.

"Please come in, gentlemen. Mr. Qiu welcomes you," said the guard as he guided the four of them to enter the inn.

Just as Yi Hua wanted to step foot into the inn, a girl ran over and hit her shoulder. Before long the girl turned to Yi Hua and paid her respects gracefully. However, Yi Hua realized that this girl was also in the merchant entourage. Even if you are on another car.

"I'm sorry, Miss, sir. He was indeed a bit careless," the guard said as he pulled the girl who hit Yi Hua a bit rudely.

This made Yi Hua raise next to his eyebrows in wonder. How could a 'Miss' be treated as rude like that?

Plus this girl looks like she's not a noble or a high society. She was like an ordinary village girl dressed in luxurious clothes. It looks a little messy and uncomfortable.

And, the girl turned her head once again to Yi Hua. The movement of the girl's lips was clear and somewhat trembling. It's just ... Yi Hua slowly understood it.

"HuaHua, ... You should know that we have other business, right?" xiao asked, reminding.

And, their direction of travel was also different. Yi Hua glanced at the girl who was taken to a different room with them. While the inn room directed by this guard in the opposite part. So Yi Hua looked back to see the girl again.

But he only saw a guard pushing the girl into the room.

Yi Hua suddenly recalled what the girl had said before.

"Please come in, gentlemen." Yi Hua walked in with a hollow feeling.

What the girl said was ... "Help me."

Believe me, Yi Hua wanted to close her eyes so that she never realized anything now.
