Chapter 1041: Chapter 722 Ghostface_2
Even after successfully breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, one still needs various methods to enhance one’s strength, to avoid being killed by others.
Even someone like He Song, a Golden Elixir Master, would use various methods to strengthen himself.
As for the purpose of becoming stronger, it is naturally to make oneself safer.
And moreover,
even after successfully breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm,
as long as one is in the Cultivation World, one still needs to continually strengthen oneself to avoid threats to one’s life.
In such a situation, it was natural for He Song to feel that three puppets were not enough.
He needed more Gold Core Puppets to become even stronger.
Only then could he properly survive in the Cultivation World.
Of course, since he already possessed three Gold Core Puppets, He Song himself was also quite powerful.
Therefore, He Song did not have an urgent desire to have more Gold Core Puppets to further increase his strength.
But this cultivator’s Golden Core,
just happened to emerge right as He Song arrived.
It was as if it was delivered into He Song’s hands.
The occurrence of such a situation,
meant that He Song simply had to take it and turn it into his own strength.
He Song naturally would not miss out on something that could be done so effortlessly and would also enhance his strength.
Such an act that could improve his strength effortlessly was like killing two birds with one stone, simply perfect.
With this thought in mind, He Song’s gaze swept over Xiao Qing, and he made up his mind.
“Since you’ve already had the idea,”
“then I’ll leave this matter to you to handle.”
“I need the sole cultivator’s Golden Core from this auction.”
“Moreover, you just need to find out where the person who has this cultivator’s Golden Core is.”
“As for what follows, you don’t need to worry about it.”
“Having a cultivator’s Golden Core greatly increases the likelihood that this person is in the Golden Elixir Realm.”
“If I send you directly to him, he might think I’m taking him lightly.”
“That would be less than ideal.”
He Song slightly shook his head as he explained his thoughts to Xiao Qing, making sure to add an explanation.
Leaving such preliminary matters to Xiao Qing, but taking personal action when it came to actual contact with the other party—if he did not explain, it might give rise to needless suspicions.
He Song did not want any distrust from Xiao Qing to impact his own actions.
That’s why he explained and clarified the pros and cons with Xiao Qing, to prevent unnecessary suspicion.
It was a case of prevention being better than cure.
Upon hearing He Song’s words, Xiao Qing’s face immediately showed a sudden realization.
Gazing at He Song,
determination filled Xiao Qing’s eyes.
“Sir, rest assured, I will take care of it immediately.”
After bowing respectfully to He Song, Xiao Qing quickly turned and left He Song’s mansion.
Seeing this, He Song did not retain her, but his eyes showed even more satisfaction as he watched her departure.
This Xiao Qing was decisive and didn’t dawdle.
After receiving benefits from him, she immediately went to work for his sake.
She was indeed a talent with potential.
Moreover, many years ago, Xiao Qing told He Song that her Master passed away suddenly, and later enemies came seeking revenge,
but she hired someone to kill them outright and scatter their ashes to the wind.
This made He Song think that Xiao Qing was naturally cautious and likely to live a long life.
In such circumstances, with these two impressions of Xiao Qing in He Song’s mind,
he naturally had a favorable view of her.
In He Song’s opinion,
if Xiao Qing handled this task smoothly, he felt that he might try to support her a bit.
If in the future Xiao Qing really stepped into the Golden Core Realm, he might gain even more from her.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, He Song looked pensively at Xiao Qing’s retreating figure.
But at this moment, Xiao Qing, who was heading out of He Song’s mansion,
was completely unaware.
The traits that she had revealed twice in front of He Song had somehow made him treat her with special consideration.
If she knew at this moment what He Song was thinking,
she would probably be overcome with gratitude towards him.
As a Golden Elixir Master, even a minor item that fell through He Song’s fingers would excite Xiao Qing, a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
If she really gained He Song’s favor and support,
she might not immediately step into the Golden Core Realm,
but the probability of her stepping into the Golden Core Realm would certainly rise sharply.
After all, when He Song first met Xiao Qing wanting to use her to gather information, he directly bestowed upon her a Golden Armor Guard.
A Golden Armor Guard is a powerful puppet, comparable in strength to a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator.
Ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators probably haven’t even seen one before,
yet He Song casually gave one to Xiao Qing as a means for her to pass messages to him.
This was just for passing messages and he already bestowed such treasures.
If He Song truly decided to offer his support,
then the benefits Xiao Qing could receive would likely far exceed the imagination of countless Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Under such circumstances, how could Xiao Qing not be filled with gratitude towards He Song?
However, Xiao Qing was currently unaware of this, and naturally, she soon left He Song’s mansion to carry out tasks for him.
As for He Song, he continued to sit quietly in the small pavilion, waiting for Xiao Qing’s return.
He wasn’t left waiting for too long.
Soon,
Xiao Qing, having found out the specific information, returned once again to He Song’s mansion.
Inside the pavilion,
Xiao Qing stood respectfully before He Song and reported the movements of the cultivator who had come to consign a Golden Core for auction.
According to Xiao Qing, the cultivator who came to consign his Golden Core at the Treasure Pavilion was dressed in a black robe, and did not reveal the slightest hint of his aura.
As a result, neither the Jubao Pavilion monk who received him nor Xiao Qing had any idea about how advanced his cultivation was.
However, when the man left, he stated that he was temporarily residing within a mansion in the Smoke-Cloud state mansion, and if there was a need, they could seek him there.
Therefore, Xiao Qing also informed He Song of the location of the mansion where the man resided.
With the specific location of the man now known, He Song didn’t delay and immediately set out for the mansion.
Xiao Qing, with He Song’s tacit approval, followed behind him all the way.
The weather in Smoke-Cloud state mansion was good today.
The sun was shining high in the sky, and its rays painted the Smoke-Cloud state mansion in a layer of golden light.
It was in this bright sunshine that He Song and Xiao Qing quietly arrived at their destination.
Standing in front of the mansion,
Xiao Qing slightly raised her hand in greeting at He Song’s indication, then spoke.
“I am Xiao Qing from the Treasure Pavilion. Today, I am accompanied by a Guest Elder of our pavilion to visit this place, and we kindly ask for an audience.”
As Xiao Qing’s voice gently flowed into the mansion,
the mansion’s grand door was also opened at this moment.

When the door opened,
a young man dressed in a black robe, revealing not a hint of his breath, appeared before He Song and Xiao Qing.
“I am Ghostface, please come in,”
The Ghostfaced True Monarch said, turning to walk into the mansion.
Behind him, Xiao Qing hesitated slightly and gave He Song a look.
Seeing He Song’s expression unchanged, already walking into the mansion,
she forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and followed closely behind He Song into the mansion.
They proceeded in silence.
Within the mansion, in a guest hall,
Ghostface led He Song and Xiao Qing there, and once the three of them took their seats in order of importance, he then turned his gaze towards He Song.
Before, when Xiao Qing had knocked at the door, she hadn’t introduced He Song; she had only mentioned that he was a Guest Elder of the pavilion.
