Demon’s Diary

“So it was Elder Lady Bai! Elder stayed outside for quite a while now and I had thought that you wouldn’t show yourself.” Liu Ming did not seem surprised at this and instead cupped his hands toward the old woman.

“So Mister Liu knew that I was outside.
Tsk tsk, mister is truly worthy of being one of the top ten core disciples of the Barbarian Ghost Sect.
I have practiced a Hiding Secret Technique and most Spirit Apostles would not be able to discover me.” When the old woman heard Liu Ming’s words, a flash of surprise showed on her face.

Liu Ming gave a small smile as he said nothing.

With his mental strength that did not lose to a Spirit Master, no matter how intricate the old woman’s secret technique was, she would not be able to hide under the power of his mental strength.

“You three leave for now.
I will be talking to Mister Liu alone for a second.” Seeing this, the old woman did not inquire further and instead ordered the two brothers and Bai Yaner out.

“Yes mother.” The two brothers of the Bai Clan quickly gave their consent.

“Grandmother, even I can’t stay?” Bai Yaner asked with some confusion.

“What I am about to talk to Mister Liu about is something that will have no benefit if you hear it.
It’s better if you don’t hear it.” The old woman hesitated for a moment before speaking in such a manner.

Although Bai Yaner felt that it was a little strange, she could only agree and leave.

Once the room’s door was closed, there was only Liu Ming and the old lady from the Bai Clan left.

“Old lady, you can say whatever it is that you wanted to say now.” Liu Ming stared at the old woman as he slowly said.

“Why so hasty, Mister Liu? I have something here that you should first take a look at.” The old woman gave a slight smile before fishing out a light blue bottle from her sleeve.
With an unwilling look at the bottle, she gave it to Liu Ming.

Liu Ming was not afraid of any tricks that could have been done with the bottle, and after taking the bottle, he gave it a small shake.
Then, he opened the lid and took a peek.
After seeing what was inside, Liu Ming could not help but say, “Pure Aura Qi, how can the Bai Clan have something like this? However, it seems that the amount is a bit low and is only a third of the normal portion.” Liu Ming was truly surprised.

“Hehe, Mister Liu is truly quite well knowledgeable.
What’s within this bottle is not only Pure Aura Qi but rather the Seventh Blue Pure Aura which is quite famous within all of the Pure Aura Qis.
It was discovered by our ancestors by accident and all we have is this one-third of a portion” The old woman said seriously.

“If it really is the Seventh Blue Pure Aura, that is indeed quite rare.
However, with only a one-third portion, what use do I have in having it.” Liu Ming stared at the small bottle for a while before creasing his brows and asking.

“Please relax Mister Liu, this one-third of a portion for the Seventh Blue Pure Aura is merely an advance for Mister Liu.
If mister is willing to promise to look after the Bai Clan for the next few years, I am willing to reveal the Aura Pit in which my ancestor found this Pure Aura Qi.
From what my ancestor left in his will, the Aura Pit was extremely small and remote, but had enough Seventh Blue Pure Aura to make another portion of the Pure Aura Qi.” The old woman said without haste.

“Hmph, if that was really the case, wouldn’t your Bai Clan have taken away all of the Pure Aura Qi?” Liu Ming’s mind turned before he said with a grunt.

“As for this point, Mister Liu does not know that the Aura Pit is not only hard to find but its location is also extremely dangerous.
My ancestor was a Late Spirit Apostle and had found the pit by accident.
After risking his life, he was able to take away this small fraction of a portion of Pure Aura Qi.
Although our Bai Clan sent out quite a few Spirit Apostles to take the remaining Pure Aura Qi, they died before they even reached the Aura Pit.
This reason is why the prosperous Bai Clan was left without Spirit Apostles and declined until the state you see it today.
In the future, we did not dare to send people to find that Aura Pit.
This can be considered the Bai Clan’s largest secret.” The old woman gave a bitter smile as she said.

“Looks like that place is extremely danger.
Then, old lady’s meaning is…” When Liu Ming heard this, his eyes flashed as he asked.

“It’s quite simple.
As long as Mister Liu can promise the wellbeing of the Bai Clan for the next five years, I will immediately give the map to the Aura Pit to you.
However, I must say that the surroundings around the Aura Pit are extremely dangerous and even if Mister Liu goes, I cannot ensure that no harm will befall you.
So, this deal is entirely up to Mister Liu.
The Bai Clan really doesn’t have anything else and as long as Mister Liu agrees, all of the resources from before are still in this deal.” The old woman said without hesitation.

“Hehe, dangerous.
As long as the Bai Clan ancestor that took the Seventh Blue Pure Aura was truly a Late Spirit Apostle, I will have no fears.
Alright, I agree to this deal.
However, I can only be Bai Chongtian for another four years and not a day more.” Liu Ming looked at the old woman before glancing at the light blue bottle in his hands and replied after giving a cold sneer.

“Four years, that should be barely enough for our Bai Clan to stand among the first rate Practitioner Clans.
Alright, then it’s a deal.” The old woman said after gnashing her teeth in decision.
She then shakily extended out a dried and skinny hand.

Liu Ming was at first stunned by her movement, but immediately realized what this meant with a smile.
He also extended out a hand to clap with the other hand.
TL: This is not an error – people used to clap hands instead of shaking hands
