"Tianjizi?"
Chen Fan did not get out of the car immediately. Instead, he looked curiously at the middle-aged man and asked, "Is the Tianjizi you mentioned that Bai Xiaosheng?"
"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded firmly. "It is said that in his early years, Tianjizi studied Taoist magic in the sect and eventually achieved some success. However, he did not continue to delve deeper. Instead, he came here and established the Tianji Pavilion. The meaning of the name is obvious, which is to perceive heavenly secrets."
"Of course, many people come and go, mostly to ask for things. As long as they have money, he can give them guidance."
Chen Fan smiled. Who knew if this was just a gimmick?
Bai Zhannian, standing beside him, crossed his arms and said indifferently, "I think he's probably just a charlatan. How could someone who truly perceives heavenly secrets be bothered by money?"
The middle-aged man quickly said with a smile, "Perhaps immortals also need to eat. We mortals naturally need money even more."
Chen Fan opened the car door and did not continue to argue with the middle-aged man. Instead, he took Bai Zhannian and got out of the car.
Everyone had their own pursuits. Perhaps Bai Zhannian and the others sought to further advance their cultivation, but it was also possible that some people were still troubled by worldly affairs and preferred to enjoy the wealth and luxury of the mortal world.
After all, everyone was a different individual, and their pursuits naturally differed greatly.
After getting out of the car, the middle-aged man drove away. Bai Zhannian looked up at the plaque above the door. "You don't really believe that Tianjizi can actually perceive heavenly secrets, do you?"
"Whether he has the ability or not, don't we need to go in and see to find out?"
Chen Fan smiled and shook his head. He ignored Bai Zhannian and pushed open the door.
Inside the courtyard, looking around, there were two small ponds on the left and right, with lotus flowers and some goldfish. The architectural style resembled old houses with a sense of history.
Following the bluestone path, Chen Fan led Bai Zhannian to the main hall.
In the hall, purple mist swirled. In the center of the sandalwood table, an incense burner was burning.
However, the hall was completely empty, with no one in sight.
After a while, a young man who looked like a servant ran up to them in a panic, panting, and asked, "What is it?"
"Where is Tianjizi?"
Chen Fan asked directly.
The young man's expression immediately turned grim, and he asked, "Are you here to ask my master for advice?"
"Yes." Chen Fan pulled Bai Zhannian and sat down as if they were in their own home.
The young man said indifferently, "Is the money ready?"
"Money? Tianjizi doesn't even know if he can know what we want to ask, and he dares to ask us for money?" Bai Zhannian immediately sneered and said, "You'd better hurry and let him come out and meet us. What are you, a child, talking to us about?"
"You..."
The young man's face turned black, and he pointed at Bai Zhannian for a while. Just as he was about to speak, a light cough suddenly came from behind him.
The young man's expression quickly changed, and he respectfully hurried towards the source of the sound.
In the blink of an eye, from the back hall, a middle-aged man slowly walked out, wearing a long robe that looked quite peculiar.
Chen Fan and Bai Zhannian's gazes also fell on him.
"You must be Tianjizi, right?" Bai Zhannian asked directly.
The man nodded. After sitting in the central chair, he glanced at Chen Fan and the two of them and asked, "Speak, why are you looking for me...?"
"Heh—" Bai Zhannian sneered and then said, "Aren't you able to calculate everything? Can't you see why we came here?"
The young man's face turned ugly again. Ever since they entered Tianji Pavilion, Bai Zhannian had been sarcastic.
Mocking him was one thing, but he didn't expect him to dare to mock Tianjizi?
In the Red Sun Country, who didn't show respect to Tianjizi?
Even powerful dignitaries, upon seeing Tianjizi, would have to bow and scrape. Yet, these two young men didn't seem to care about Tianjizi at all?
Truly hateful!
Tianjizi smiled at Bai Zhannian and then said, "Although I perceive heavenly secrets, each time I do so, it consumes my vital energy. Therefore, I will not waste my vital energy for nothing."
Hearing his words, Bai Zhannian almost burst into laughter.
But Chen Fan already had a concept in his mind.
Although this Tianjizi looked quite like an immortal, everything was just a disguise.
However, perhaps he could indeed obtain some information from this person.
He had heard of a type of person who liked to collect information. When they had collected enough information, they could start a business, thus creating the illusion of secretly perceiving heavenly secrets.
Bai Zhannian wanted to continue speaking, but Chen Fan interrupted him with a wave of his hand and said, "I want to know about District Thirteen."
"Shua!"
Upon mentioning District Thirteen, Tianjizi's expression clearly changed, but it quickly improved. He then frowned and said, "What is this District Thirteen you're talking about? I'm sorry, but I really don't know about that."
"Aren't you known for knowing everything in the Red Sun Country?" Chen Fan pursed his lips and smiled. He took out the money he had prepared earlier and placed it in front of Tianjizi, continuing, "Are you worried we don't have money to buy your intelligence?"
Just now, although Tianjizi's expression changed quickly, all of this did not escape Chen Fan's eyes.
Tianjizi's eyes lit up when he saw the money. He coughed lightly, maintaining his immortal-like demeanor. After thinking for a moment, he pretended to be profound and said, "The matter of District Thirteen is a secret. To know about it, this amount of money is probably not enough."
Bai Zhannian almost cursed. He was clearly greedy for money, and yet he claimed to perceive heavenly secrets?
But Chen Fan smiled and casually took out another check and placed it on the table.
Tianjizi's gaze flickered. Although he couldn't see the exact amount clearly, he saw a row of zeros on it.
In an instant, his attitude changed. He waved for the servant to leave, and then continued, "What do you want to know about District Thirteen?"
"Tell me the exact location of District Thirteen, how to enter District Thirteen, and the news about the divine artifact held by District Thirteen."
These three questions in a row stunned Tianjizi.
After all, everything about District Thirteen was confidential. The fact that he knew a little already proved his extraordinary nature.
