Chapter 616: 330 Shadow Demon Substitute (4000)_1 Chapter 616: 330 Shadow Demon Substitute (4000)_1 Next, Jilan began studying the latest population density map of North Flow Country. Although the general direction was already known, it was only the most meticulous and accurate that could yield maximum returns.

Meanwhile, Casio did nothing, just waiting to reap the benefits.

Since Jilan was researching, that was equivalent to him completing it as well.

Throughout the night, the two of them were in the room. Casio was closed-eyed in cultivation, quietly stimulating a magnetic field to further resonate and refine the Shadow Demon.

On the other hand, Jilan kept his head down, mapping out the area.

The latest intelligence report was soon filled with a myriad of circled regions and markings.

Not until the next morning broke, when the dawn’s light cut through the cloud barrier, did they rest. Several golden rays of light were cast over the entire city.

The morning light leaking through the curtain gaps made the dimly lit room brighter. Casio stood up from the sofa and glanced outside. There were already single and separated citizens moving along both sides of the street, and some breakfast shops had already opened their doors.

“Phew… It’s finally over…”

At the wooden table, Jilan slowly put down the paper and pen in his hands. He stood up and checked all over again, finally confirming the location.

“It’s a bit off from the previous estimate, but the best location is still in the Night Market in the south district. However, the center point should be at the end of Beni Avenue, where the crowd is the thickest at night.”

Casio slowly walked over and scanned over the paper documents.

Listening to Jilan’s words, he silently nodded. After pondering briefly, he said: “Jilan, I have some things to sort out first. You head to North Flow City first, I should arrive a day earlier, probably on the 29th, then I will protect the law for you.”

Casio’s tone was calm, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

Jilan smiled faintly and said, “Okay, when you get to North Flow Country, you can find me at the Red Leaf Inn on Camphor Street. As for protecting the law for me, I’ll thank you in advance, hahaha…”

By the time his laughter ended, Casio had already vanished from the room. Only the window was left open, the cold wind blowing in caused the curtains to flutter, adding a hint of coolness.

Jilan’s countenance abruptly changed, his previously friendly and cheerful smile turned back into its original somber expression. He wasn’t an amiable person in the first place. His affable facade was merely for Casio.

The main goal was to foster closeness and goodwill in Casio.

Jilan wanted to win Casio over, at least as a superficial friend for the time being.

Of course, even a superficial friend could count as one of Jilan’s closest relationships.

“The latest version of the population density map of North Flow Country…” He rubbed the paper document on the table with his fingers, his eyes somewhat opaque. “It did help me quite a lot, a quite interesting person, one of the rare warm-hearted members in the organization…”

Jilan pondered for a while, then his thoughts turned to the Blood Spirit Association.

“Damn things, neither humans nor ghosts. Wait until I finish opening the door ceremony, solving my lifespan issues. I will certainly give you a lesson with my hand of dark magic, just wait for me…”

He laughed gloomily, turned and closed the window.

On the 27th of July, at 10 a.m., the weather was clear.

A few thin clouds were hanging in the blue sky, being blown hither and thither by the high altitude winds, like several ships on the waves.

Sunlight shone on the motionless tiles, reflecting a faint light.

In the spacious living room, an upright figure reclined on a striped sofa. The sunshine streaming in from the floor-to-ceiling window rested on his shoulders, illuminating half of his blond hair, making it appear as resplendent as a lion king’s.

Before Casio, by the delicate transparent tea table.

Jil was keeping a metal tea can, using a spoon the size of a ping-pong ball to scoop a few spoonfuls of tea leaves into a small pot. He added pure milk from time to time and put it on the stove to boil.

In a while, the scent of tea milk curled in the air.

Casio slightly narrowed his eyes and turned his head to look at the professor waiting by his side. The professor, who was once old with greying hair and a hunched figure, was now full of vitality. His hair was getting darker, the white had almost disappeared. He bent slightly, but showed no signs of stooping, instead exuding an aura of straightforwardness. He seemed to have gotten a lot younger.

“How have you been feeling lately? Is your cultivation going smoothly?”

Casio asked, casually choosing a topic.

“Very good, my condition is improving. It’s all thanks to you, sir. My colleagues and I are all very grateful…”

The professor replied, revealing a respectful expression in his sentences.

“Alright, focus on laying a solid foundation for now. Once the foundation is firm, I will teach you the art of killing that transcends the ordinary…”

Casio, looking at the green trees outside the window, said slowly.

“Thank you very much, sir!” The professor’s tone became more respectful.

“No need to thank me. Since you have gained strength and power, you will have to work for me. This is a kind of exchange…” Casio moved his gaze from the birds on the tree branches and continued speaking.

“By the way, the other day I asked you to send all the antiquities of the Black Spade A organization to Baichuan City, what’s the situation now?”

“Part of the ones close by have arrived. About half of the antiques are located far from the warehouse and will take some time to be transported. It would probably take around three to four days.”

The professor, after considering it for a moment, spoke up. His thoughts turned and he remembered something else, “By the way, sir. The forces of the Sand Dust Organization in North Flow Country have been completely defeated. We are gradually taking over the channels, strongholds, and forces of the Sand Dust. Among them, there are also several transport warehouses that store antiques, and I have ordered people to send them all…”
