Chapter 157: Farewell, Meeting Haibodong

  After leaving the mountain valley, Gu He did not pause for a moment and headed directly towards the imperial capital.

  A moment ter, at the Miteer Au House.

  Upon receiving the news of Gu He's arrival, the manager of the Miteer Au House immediately sent someoo inform Miteer Tengshan.

  Ever since Gu He assisted Miteer Tengshan in refining the Qingming Life-Prolonging Pill, he had been held in high regard by the tter.

  "Lord Dan King, may I inquire about the purpose of your visit?" In the VIP room, after exging pleasantries with Miteer Tengshan, Gu He slowly took a seat, and Miteer Tengshan cut to the chase.

  Gu He lifted the tea cup oable, took a sip, and then stated his iion, "I want to see Old Hai."

  Upon hearing this, Miteer Tengshan was shaken, but he maintained a posed expression and said, "Lord Dan King, you jest. As everyone knows, Old Hai has been missing for over a decade. In all these years, our Miteer family has never given up the search, but there has been no news."

  Towards the end, Miteer Tengshan even sighed, appearing quite despo.

  If Gu He hadn't separated his soul power the moment he arrived in the capital, sensing Haibodong's aura withieer family, he might have been deceived by Miteer Tengshan's appearance.

  "Chief Tengshan, if I didn't have certainty, would I rashly propose to see Old Hai? I hope Chief Tengshan inform Old Hai on my behalf. Just tell him that Gu He wants to see him, and he will definitely e," Gu He said with a calm tone.

  Could it be that he truly khat Old Hai had returned?

  Looking at Gu He's fident demeanor, Miteer Tengshan was momentarily stunned, feeling a sense of doubt.

  After all, it had beehan three days since Old Hai's return, and he had issued strict orders not to disclose any information about him to the outside world.

  How did Gu He e to know?

  Could it be that someone had leaked information about Old Hai?

  Various thoughts fshed through Miteer Tengshan's mind, but in the end, he refused Gu He's request and excused himself, "Lord Dan King, I hope you five me. If our Miteer family finds Old Hai, we will surely inform you."

  Seeing Miteer Tengshaedly refusing him, Gu He's heart turned slightly cold. He was no longer ied in dragging things out with the other party and said coldly, "Chief Tengshan, perhaps Old Hai didn't tell you. Without my help, he might never have returned in his lifetime."

  "Whether Old Hai has returned or not, I know more than you do." Gu He forcefully put doweacup in his hand, staring fixedly at Miteer Tengshan.

  "This..." Gu He's words were astonishing, and Miteer Tengshan, looking at Gu He's attitude, was suddenly filled with uainty.

  Did Old Hai really return because of his assistance?

  At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Gu He had left the ist Sect for about a month retly.

  And not long after Gu He returo the ist Sect, Old Hai successfully came back.

  The timing of their returns seemed to be not much different.

  Could it be that everything Gu He said was true?

  In an instant, various thoughts fshed through Miter Tengshan's mind. Then, he g the indifferent Gu He aly made a decision.

  "Dan King, I apologize. I will go inform Elder Hai right away." A smile quickly appeared on Miter Tengshan's face, finally aowledging that Elder Hai had returned.

  Gu He, upon hearing this, nodded slightly. He picked up the teacup oable again and casually said, "Go ahead, please inform Elder Hai. I have important matters to discuss with him."

  "Please wait a moment, Dan King."

  Miter Tengshan nodded, and then, apanied by a steward from the Miter Tel Au House, he left the au house directly.

  After Miteer Tengsha, only Gu He and a steward from the Miteer Au House remained in the VIP room.

  "When is the au?" Gu He asked casually, taking a sip of tea and looking at the steward beside him.

  The steward respectfully replied, "Returning to Dan King, there will be a regional-level au in half a month."

  In the imperial capital's Miteer Au House, aus were divided into four levels like martial arts levels: Heaveh, Profound, and Yellow.

  Among them, Heaven was the highest, but Heaven-level aus were rare and might not happen even on a year or two. However, when they did occur, it meant that the items to be aued were of great significe, attrag powerful individuals and leaders from almost half of the Gamma Empire.

  Regional-level aus were also rare, Profound-level aus were more on, and Yellow-level aus were open all the time.

  Upon hearing this, Gu He became somewhat ied. Regional-level aus should have some good items.

  What Gu He had in mind was not for himself. With an increasing number of disciples under his sect, he cked suitable treasures to bestow upohus, he thought that in the regional-level au, there might be suitable treasures to acquire and theow upon his disciples.

  The st time, Gu He had acquired a fifth-grade magic core armor, the Ice Heart Armor, which he bestowed upotle Medical Fairy. Iurn, he received the Ice Mystic Saint Armor, which had proven to be extremely helpful iagor Desert.

  Thinking about this, Gu He said to the steward, "Brihe list of items for the au."

  The steward was momentarily surprised, theated for a moment before taking out a list from the ste ring and respectfully handing it to Gu He. "Please review it, Dan King."

  Gu He took the list and exami carefully. There weren't many items on the list, and Gu He quickly finished reading it. From his perspective, these items were quite ordinary, but from the perspective of the Little Medical Fairy and others, one or two items seemed det.

  One was a dozen or so eggs of Shadow Poison Is. These is, inating from the Cloud Empire, were parable to frade magical beasts. They excelled ih and could deliver ued fatal blows.

  The other item was a fifth-grade magic core on, a wind attribute sword. It would be suitable for Nan Yanran.

  After reading the list, Gu He ha back to the steward and waited quietly for the arrival of Hai Bo Dong.

  After a while, Gu He sensed someone approag, and then an old man in gray robes slowly ehe VIP room.

  Looking at the old man in gray robes, a smile appeared on Gu He's face.

  "Hai, we meet again."
