Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System-Novel

The sect was very careful bringing Liu Jie to the location; they had cut off his senses when traveling, so he would not get an idea of where the exact location was as this location was in rough terrain, and it would be tough to find in the map of Yin country.

But the sect gave him his senses back when they reached the location, so he and other elders of the golden dawn sect could help Sky Soaring Sect mine the spirit stones. Even if he was not sure about the location, Liu Zie imprinted the location in his mind.

When the first batch of spirit stones was mined, Liu Jie was brought back to his sect; he first used his connections to contact the royal family and inform them there was a medium-grade mine east of Yin country; in return, he wanted 30% of the mine. The east of Yin country was very large, so it would be like finding a needle in a haystack. But still, a medium-grade spirit stone mine would boost the strength of any sect or family. The royal family could not ignore it, and they agreed. That is how Liu Jie, his target of this mission, betrayed Sky Soaring Sect.

Since Liu Jie had betrayed the sect, he knew the sect wouldn't let it go easily. He knew that Sky Soaring Sect would try to get rid of him at any cost. The royal family's power was limited in this area; they could not protect him. So with the help of the royal family, he contacted the Yang family and asked for their protection. The Yang family to the royal family was what Dark Hall was for sky soaring sect. The Yang family was going to be paid by the royal family for protecting him, and they also were also supposed to receive some shares from the mine when the royal family takes over the mine.

Han Cai had found this mine for the sect and did not appreciate someone trying to steal it.

Han Cai traveled hundreds of miles underground first. He did not need to use ground escape if he wanted. He could just fly freely. As much as he knew he might be one of the most powerful cultivators in Yin country. But he still kept his past habits of always following the safety guidelines he had created for himself.

He divided his travel into two parts: flying at night and traveling underground during the day. With his cultivation and the new flying technique he had created, he could travel above the clouds at a speed of a thousand kilometers per hour. He was given nine months to complete this mission. Out of those nine months, he was supposed to travel for four months and take five months to infiltrate the city and complete the mission. As for his return, he could take as much time as he wanted. The sect did not give him any time limit on that.

In ten days, he had reached a town near Ravenfall city. Now he had to find a way to infiltrate the city. Han Cai decided to do some tests first. I

n the night, he went underground and got as close as he could to the Raven City wall before his high perception warned him that if he went any further, he would trip the alarm of the underground formation.

Han Cai did not move forward. After some time, another Han Cai separated from him. Second Han Cai used the ethereal invisibility skill. His presence, physical form, voice, footsteps, and scent everything about him—disappeared. Han

Cai was alone again. Han Cai's clone walked towards the wall. When he was near the first formation, he used the space escape technique, disappeared from that spot, and reappeared around ten miles away inside the formation. Since the clone was ethereal, no one was alarmed.

Whenever Han Cai used space and ethereal techniques together, he would experience something new. He could see every particle of his body actually moving through some other plane that did not exist in the real physical world. It was like he was in the real world, but at the same time, it was not the real world, more like a parallel world that he had entered. Han Cai wanted to understand this plane he had entered more, but there were too many things on his mind, so he had to set up priorities.

He planned that one day when he had enough time and peace of mind, he would explore this plane and understand its complexities with the help of the system. After charging him some trade points, the system had already told him that this plane was called the celestial plane, a plane formed by a massive amount of celestial Qi.

After cleanly passing through twenty formations, Han Cai's clone was above the wall. Han Cai's perception told him soon someone would come to his clone's location. The clone waited a while to see who was coming after the person nearby disappeared. Even though there. After some time, an old man wearing green walked around where Han Cai's clone had disappeared with confused, suspicious eyes like he felt something but was not sure what he felt.

Han Cai left the underground area and came back to the town. He did not try to test the security of the city again. He waited patiently. While he waited, he kept watching on all the caravans and people who entered and left the city.

A week after his experiment, a caravan of merchants left the city gate. There were brown-robed guards protecting the caravan when the caravan was far from the city.

Han Cai followed the caravan. He continued following the caravan for weeks. One day when the caravan was passing through a jungle. Two caravan guards went into the jungle to hunt for some food. While they were walking, two lights flashed. Before they could understand what happened, two heads rolled. Han Cai appeared near one rolled head, and a second Han Cai appeared on the opposite side near another rolled head. Both Han Cai got to work; they robbed both guards, buck naked, and left.

Three days after robbing the guards,  Han Cai returned to the town nearest Ravenfall City. He did not stay in the town for very long.

On the same night, Han Cai left the town and approached the Ravenfall city wall. When his perception informed him he was close enough, another Han Cai walked out. Han Cai took out the Yang family's guard robes from the system storage. The clone put on the robe. After the clone was dressed, they both separated and moved in the opposite direction from each other. When it was ten minutes, they both stopped, used ethereal invisibility, transformation skill and moved toward the city wall.

They crossed each formation by teleporting using escape techniques. They finally reached the wall. Han Cai flew toward the wall, but Han Cai's clone internationally tripped the formation by canceling the ethereal invisibility skill. Strong trapping mechanisms activated around him. Clone's body was frozen stiff and could not move for some reason. Soon the clone could see people flying toward his location, and when the clone's perception warned him that people were close enough, the clone disappeared. The robes of the Yang family guards the clone was wearing fell to the ground.

Soon, two old men came flying to the location where Han Cai's clone disappeared. After some more time, more than fifty people were at that location. There was no sign of the man whom Han Cai had seen when he was testing the city's defense array.

From the two old men who arrived, the First man spoke, "Someone tried to infiltrate using the guard's clothes."

The second old man nodded. Spoke: "He tripped the alarm. So escaped?"

The old man looked at raven city past the city wall and spoke, "did he really escape?"

The second old man spoke, "Do you sense something?"

The first man shook his head.

Suddenly a third voice spoke. "He did not move towards the wall. He got trapped here and tried to escape but was frozen for some time; after that, he disappeared."

It was the old man wearing green who Han Cai had seen when testing the defense array of the city.

The second old man spoke, "Teleportation Talisman?"

The man in green shook his head and spoke, "It's some mysterious art. He just disappeared, like, stopped existing."

He had a smile on his face. "I didn't think such a remote north would have cultivators with skills like this. Whoever it was had already entered the city; this here was bait, I am sure."

The first two old men stayed silent for a while.

After a while, the second old man started giving orders to the fifty people who were at the location to "check the whole city perimeter and ask the guards to stay alert. Also, alert the guards inside the city to check for any irregularities."

The fifty people bowed in unison. After that, one of the fifty picked up the Yang family's guard's clothes, and everyone left.

Han Cai was moving quietly through Ravenfall City. He arrived in front of a building after moving around for 40 minutes. He went to the back of the building and crept up to the fourth floor in silence.

Han Cai took out a small piece of parchment and placed it beneath the window. After placing it below, he knocked on the window three times, slowly and repeatedly. After that, he vanished.

A man soon opened the window. Han Cai was still present but invisible, so the man did not notice him.

The man looked around and saw the parchment. He reached out and picked it up, and After picking up the parchment, he went back into the room.

But when the man left the window, he did not close the window.

After waiting for ten minutes, Han Cai entered the room man was in through the window. He closed the window after entering.

Once inside, Han Cai looked around. He saw a man in his 40s standing quietly and looking at him. The man spoke, "What does rabbit want?"

Han Cai responded, " Meat, not grass."

Man nodded, then he said, "Wait here! I will get some tea."

Han Cai nodded. Went to sit in a nearby chair. Soon the man came back with tea and sat on the opposite chair. He served Han Cai tea and made himself some tea.

The man sipped the tea and asked, "How can I help?"

Han Cai responded, "Liu Jie, leader of the Golden Dawn Sect."

The man nodded. He finished his tea, and then he left.

When the man left, Han Cai Checked this room with his perception. Making sure nothing was wrong, he paid for the system and asked to scan the whole room. Once the system found no irregularities, Han Cai took off his mask.

Below the mask, he was still wearing a black mask of thin cloth that was open around the mouth. Han Cai sat peacefully and started sipping tea.
