Chapter 795: Chapter 794: Two Targets

The tavern opposite Heaven on Earth had closed down because the shopkeeper had dismissed the two helpers and a cook, accusing them of collaborating to embezzle the tavern’s money. The reason they weren’t turned over to the authorities was because of the shopkeeper’s kind heart.

So, by midday that very day, the two helpers and the cook, with their bags slung over their shoulders and faces of despair, left the tavern, and then they exited through the North City Gate. Once outside, they bought three red steeds and headed north.

Yusuf Zuck saw them on the official road five hundred li away, and when the three men came galloping up on their horses, Yusuf Zuck burst into hearty laughter!

"Where’s my wife?" Anais Dillon asked urgently, since his wife was with Yusuf Zuck.

"Your wife is back in your old home in Henan, keeping your parents company. So, how was it? You had a blast in the Dragon Gate World, didn’t you?" Yusuf Zuck said sarcastically.

"A blast my ass, we didn’t have any rights, I almost died!" Anais Dillon cursed angrily; he, along with Uriel Arellano and Russ Trujillo, were not as lucky as the one who got away with five mao.

"Brother-in-law, I need to tell you something, I’m not going back!" Russ Trujillo also dismounted, a look of dejection on his face.

"What’s wrong? Didn’t we agree? Why are you backing out now?" Yusuf Zuck was shocked. Hadn’t they agreed to go back together? Why wasn’t he returning now?

"I still need to search for Felicity..." Russ Trujillo said gravely, "Right now, we don’t even know if she’s alive or dead, so I have to find her!"

"Where will you go to search for her?" Yusuf Zuck asked anxiously. "The world is so vast, and with communication and travel so undeveloped, trying to find one person is like looking for a needle in the ocean!"

"Yeah, Russ, why are you going back on your word?" Anais Dillon and Uriel Arellano also tried to persuade him.

"I won’t go back until I find Felicity. I want to try searching in Yuezhou, so don’t try to persuade me anymore. However, brother-in-law, give me a few more Tuberculosis Pills. Do you have any Solidifying Pills too? Give me those as well!"

"Forget it, I wash my hands of this." Yusuf Zuck sighed heavily. He could understand Russ Trujillo’s feelings because if it were him, he wouldn’t go back either. After all, if you didn’t even know whether your own woman was alive or dead, what was the point in returning?

Yusuf Zuck pulled out several bottles of Elixir and threw them directly to him, containing enough Elixir to support his Solidifying Pill process!

"I knew you would have them. I’m leaving now. Take care, brothers, and send my regards to the others when you get back. We shall meet again. Brother-in-law, I’m off!" Russ Trujillo left without any hesitation, not dragging his feet in the slightest.

"Sigh, would’ve been better if we hadn’t come to this damned place. Dammit." Anais Dillon and Uriel Arellano were also dispirited. They had originally thought that once they entered through the Dragon Gate Passage, they would conquer the world together. But who would have guessed that after they arrived, they would be scattered, and in this world, they were insignificant nobodies, so insignificant that no one looked up to them!

You see, in the ordinary world, a person who had built a foundation could walk sideways with pride, but here, they could only work as a lowly waiter. Without power or a Sect, you were nothing but trash.

"Let’s go, I’ll take you two to the Passage first. Then you wait for me there!" After confirming with Telekinesis that there were no people nearby, Yusuf Zuck immediately grabbed the two men and leaped away.

A moment later, he settled the two men into the cave at the Passage and instructed them not to wander off, to wait there for his return.

"Where’s the Passage? Let’s go back first!" Anais Dillon was eager. He truly missed his wife.

"No, I won’t tell you the exact location of the Passage until I return. It’s not that I don’t trust you, but this is a matter of great importance. If it leaks out, we will never know peace again, or might even be doomed forever!" Yusuf Zuck said solemnly.

"Oh, that’s fine, then. You hurry back, and we’ll just stay put in this cave, doing nothing!" Anais Dillon and Uriel Arellano nodded repeatedly. In this world, being cautious and careful was never wrong!

"Both of you have poor cultivation levels, so you should cultivate diligently. Here are some elixirs. I should be back by tomorrow morning, but if I can’t make it by then, I’ll definitely return before tomorrow night. So wait for me here and focus on your cultivation," Yusuf Zuck instructed before leaving the cave and heading back to the Capital City.

...

In the afternoon, Yusuf Zuck returned to Heaven on Earth and entered the basement, where Russ Trujillo had already been waiting for him.

"I’ve... I’ve found out almost everything." Upon seeing Yusuf Zuck, Russ Trujillo immediately started to report, "The largest elixir shop in the city is called Herbal Hall, and it’s not run by Saint Dragon Pavilion but by Joyful Sect, one of the Ten Major Sects. Within Joyful Sect, there’s an alchemy master who is said to be one of the Elixir Kings on the Mainland. The elixir business of Joyful Sect is extremely prosperous, and it has nurtured many alchemy talents. Therefore, they opened the largest elixir shop in Capital City, both to buy some rare treasures and to sell elixirs for immense profits."

"The elixir shop is located in North City, not far from the branch of Saint Dragon Pavilion." Russ Trujillo unfolded a map, pointing to a marked location on it.

"Hmm, who’s guarding the place?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.

"At least a Fusion, or even possibly an Early Mahayana Stage character."

"Continue with the Imperial Palace!" Yusuf Zuck nodded. Even the Early Mahayana Stage was nothing to him; if he intended to steal, even an Earth Immortal might not notice.

"Indeed, Master Dillon is not in the Palace, but he has taken a disciple who is now in charge. They say this person is cruel and ruthless and, using Master Dillon’s fame, everyone in the Palace treats him with deference. Also, this person came to Heaven on Earth a few days ago and stared at me for a long time, nearly scaring me to death!"

"The man is extremely ugly, but those eyes are cold and creepy, enough to give anyone the chills—a damn eunuch!"

"Talk about the secret chamber where the elixirs are hidden. I have no love for eunuchs," Yusuf Zuck said, rolling his eyes.

"Oh, oh, sorry for getting off track." Russ Trujillo chuckled and continued, "Underneath the Imperial Garden in the Palace, there’s a small courtyard where a palace maid lives. Below that courtyard are the elixirs or treasury, etc. Anyone who wants wealth or to take elixirs has to go through that maid!"

"Maid? A nun?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.

"What nun? It’s just a caretaker, an old maid, a wet nurse. You know about Auntie Felicity, right? A woman who has never been married and has stayed an old maid all her life. I tell you, these women are all twisted inside, just like eunuchs!"

"They are indeed pitiful. But what is the maid’s cultivation level?" Yusuf Zuck pressed on.

"I don’t know about that, but she must be very powerful to be guarding the treasure trove," Russ Trujillo speculated.

"Makes sense. First, I’ll go scout out Herbal Hall, and after I succeed there, I’ll head to the Palace!" Yusuf Zuck glanced at Russ Trujillo and said, "Take care of yourself."

"Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing, and I have ways to save my own skin. You think all I know is how to flirt and slack off?"

"Alright, take care. I’m off," Yusuf Zuck said as he patted Russ Trujillo’s shoulder and gave him a hug before turning to leave the basement.

It was not yet sunset, and Herbal Hall should still be open, so he decided to go scout out the area first.
