The Demon's Menu

Cui Longnu walked up to Jason and directly handed over the letter.

The envelope was already opened, confirming there were no tricks, Jason pulled out the letter.

The letter read——

Master Mu:

Due to an unavoidable reason, I ask for your utmost forgiveness.

A matter arises in Fragrance City, Northern Capital is in chaos, please come to Northern Capital for a discussion.

Cui Longwang

Year 3 of Yuanfeng, January

...

Northern Capital?

Jason quietly mused in his heart.

Upon seeing the term 'Northern Capital', he thought of many things.

The first was roast duck, donkey roll, pea cake, almond tofu, braised boil, fried tripe, stir-fried liver, douzhi, fried meatballs, stewed elbow, soy sauce pig trotters, and so on.

Then, he thought of the undisputed number one among the top nine masters, 'The Emperor'.

And Gousheng was born from, possessing one of the top nine masters 'Sword Immortal' of the 'Northern Li Family'.

Also, Xu Dashan!

Previously, Xu Dashan had been sent to Northern Capital early by 'the Big Dragon Head' Cui Longwang.

Clearly, 'the Big Dragon Head' Cui Longwang had long made arrangements.

Thinking of this, Jason looked at Cui Longnu.

Cui Longwang inviting him to Northern Capital certainly wasn't just empty words.

Especially after the previous battle, Cui Longwang's astuteness would naturally know what to do.

Indeed, that was the case.

"Master Mu, this is for you."

Cui Longnu directly handed a silk package to Jason.

The blue silk had a unique luster in the afternoon sun.

After opening it, a book appeared in front of Jason.

Jingtou Palm!

When Jason's fingers touched it, words began to manifest before his eyes——

[Discovered special heritage item 'Jingtou Palm', judging...]

[Judged to have reached master-level in Barehanded Combat, judgment passed!]

[Judged perception reaches 6, judgment passed!]

[Judged physique reaches 6, judgment passed!]

[Judged spirit reaches 6, judgment passed!]

[Yes/No to consume 400 satiety points to include it as an additional option?]

...

Unexpectedly, it's 'Jingtou Palm'?

Even knowing Cui Longwang could be very generous, Jason was still startled at this moment.

Each family in this replica world values their martial arts skills immensely, it's not an exaggeration to say they treasure them like precious jewels.

In 'Mountain City', learning martial arts in a dojo required spending a lot of money and going through numerous tests.

And that was just the ordinary martial skills that could train 'muscles' taught by the dojos.

Even the 'Bone Tempering' stage was rare among them.

Not to mention this 'True Skill' that can complete 'apertures', allowing one to achieve Martial Arts Divinity.

Jason had the confidence that if he leaked the news of this 'True Skill', it would cause a bloody upheaval.

Such a grand gesture!

Jason marveled inwardly.

At the same time, he re-evaluated the danger level of this trip to Northern Capital invited by 'the Big Dragon Head' Cui Longwang.

It must be a perilous journey with a nine-to-one chance of survival.

Otherwise, this 'Big Dragon Head' wouldn't take out such precious martial skills as compensation.

Even if Cui Longwang didn't mention compensation in the letter.

Cui Longnu also didn't say much.

But Jason knew very well that by accepting this "Jingtou Palm," he was agreeing.

Upon a slight contemplation, Jason nodded.

Although he now possessed the "Five Poisons Godly Annihilation Palm", which was clearly a level above "Jingtou Palm" in martial arts divine skills, the phrase 'drawing parallels' was something Jason understood.

Moreover, "Jingtou Palm" could be directly learned.

He just didn't know if the 'apertures' would overlap?

Or, could his 'Talent' make overlapping 'apertures' become 'adaptable'?

Just like what he had done before.

Besides this consideration, there was also the main quest.

After these days, especially after the battle yesterday, his reputation soared directly to [805].

Even now, it still increases by a few points occasionally, but the speed has obviously slowed down, estimating it will reach at most a thousand, so to complete the main quest of achieving a reputation of 3000, a bigger stage was necessary.

And what bigger stage is there than 'Northern Capital'?

Of course, Jason absolutely wasn't tempted by roast duck, donkey roll, pea cake, almond tofu, braised boil, fried tripe, stir-fried liver, douzhi, fried meatballs, stewed elbow, soy sauce pig trotters, and all those foods.

He was purely compelled to complete the mission.

"When do we depart?"

Jason swallowed and asked.

"My father left me a letter, saying it takes seven days to prepare, and there will be others traveling with us."

Cui Longnu said truthfully.

"Traveling with us?

You're going too?"

Jason looked at Cui Longnu in surprise.

Logically, the Northern Capital is about to become the center of attention, 'the Big Dragon Head' shouldn't let his daughter go.

Or is it, compared to the perilous 'Northern Capital', the current 'Fragrance City' is even more dangerous?

Is it because of those martial artists who came for the duel between 'the Big Dragon Head' and 'Knife Monarch'?

Perhaps they are dangerous, especially since a duel ended inconclusively, it can't help but leave them dissatisfied, but it shouldn't be more dangerous than 'Northern Capital'.

After all, the 'Si Hai Bang' members aren't dead.

Though they don't have top-notch 'apertures', there are still two or three grandmasters who have reformed their 'Bone Marrow'.

Such grandmasters are enough to hold the fort.

So, it shouldn't be danger.

So, is it...

Opportunity!

In 'Northern Capital', there's a great opportunity for Cui Longnu?!

Jason couldn't help but think.

"Yes, my father wants me to go.

He also assured me that he would explain everything to me.

Uncle Xu will meet us in Northern Capital."

Cui Longnu was somewhat sullen.
