The group quickly entered the main hall of the palace. All kinds of fruits were laid out on the table. It was a sumptuous feast.
Dou Zhengzhen raised his wine cup and said, "I've heard of Master talking about Elder Lu, a strong cultivator and a senior. Today, I've seen you in person. You're even better than what Master said. Finally, I've resolved my life's regret. Let me toast to Elder Lu with this wine. "
Lu Jiangpeng said a few polite words and finished his cup.
Dou Zhengzhen toasted to Yang Qingxuan again.
Yang Qingxuan secretly praised Dou Zhengzhen in his heart. Although Dou Zhengzhen was a scheming b * tch, he was able to put down his status and treat the wise with respect.
Dou Zhengzhen put down his wine cup and said, "I'm looking forward to the battle between Brother Qingxuan and Junior Apprentice-Brother Huang Yu. I'm sure you'll shine."
Yang Qingxuan's heart skipped a beat. He said to himself, "So the person I'm fighting is called Huang Yu. I wonder what his cultivation is like."
He quietly put down his wine cup. He wanted to ask, but it was inconvenient for him to do so. He only smiled and sat down to eat.
Dou Zhengzhen was even more shocked. No matter how he probed, this kid was watertight. He could not figure out what was hidden under this fifteen or sixteen-year-old skin.
Lu Jiangpeng asked, "What's Huang Yu's ranking on the Spirit of Warriors Ranking?"
Dou Zhengzhen and Yan Liang looked at each other. Yan Liang smiled and said, "Huang Yu just entered the inner courtyard last year. He hasn't participated in the Spirit of Warriors Ranking, so he's not ranked yet."
Lu Jiangpeng nodded and said, "I see."
Yan Liang also asked, "What's Qing Xuan's ranking on the Hidden Dragon Ranking?"
Lu Jiangpeng smiled and said, "Yang Qingxuan's situation is the same as Huang Yu's. He's also a new student who just entered the inner courtyard. He's not ranked yet."
"Oh?"
Yan Liang did not seem to believe it, but the name Yang Qingxuan was indeed unfamiliar. He said, "Fang Chen is ranked tenth on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, but he couldn't represent Elder Lu. It seems that Yang Qingxuan's ability is above Fang Chen's."
Lu Jiangpeng would not be provoked. He poured himself a cup and said, "Hehe..."
Yan Liang and Dou Zhengzhen cursed in their hearts, "Old fox!"
Dou Zhengzhen rolled his eyes as if he had a plan. He smiled and said, "Something came up at the last minute, and I don't know how long it will take for him to get here. Brother Qing Xuan is still young, so I'm afraid you don't like to sit around and drink wine. Why don't I send a few Noblemen to accompany Brother Qing Xuan to stroll around the Imperial Capital to relieve your boredom?"
"Sure, I want to walk around too."
Yang Qingxuan immediately stood up. He really didn't like to sit here and drink wine. Although there was good wine and delicacies, the conversation was full of hidden dangers. If he wasn't careful, he would be tricked. He might as well take a stroll in the city.
Lu Jiangpeng frowned and was a little worried.
However, when he thought of Yang Qingxuan's intelligence and the fact that Dou Zhengzhen wouldn't dare to do anything, he said, "Be careful."
Dou Zhengzhen smiled: "Elder Lu is worrying too much. Brother Qing Xuan should treat this Jingyun country as his own home. Why is there a need to be careful? Haha. "
He immediately ordered a group of Noblemen to accompany Yang Qingxuan.
Yang Qingxuan looked at the group of arrogant Noblemen and immediately refused, "I'm just taking a stroll. There's no need for so many people to accompany me."
One of the Noblemen immediately said angrily, "Who do you think you are? Do you think we want to accompany you?! "
Dou Zhengzhen's face darkened and he angrily rebuked, "Impudent! Brother Qing Xuan is my brother. How dare you speak rudely to him? Slap yourself! "
The Nobleman's face was filled with fear, as if he was terrified of Dou Zhengzhen. He immediately slapped himself more than ten times. Even if Dou Zhengzhen didn't say anything, he didn't dare to stop and continued slapping himself. He lowered his head and his face was filled with resentment.
Yang Qingxuan couldn't help but think more highly of Dou Zhengzhen. To be able to control these Noblemen so well, he was indeed skilled.
Dou Zhengzhen said, "Tan Tao, you're in charge of accompanying Brother Qing Xuan. Remember, Brother Qing Xuan is my brother. Treat him the way you treat me normally. Do you understand? "
"Yes, I understand!"
Among the Noblemen, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy walked out. His face was much calmer than the others.
The rest of the Noblemen were dissatisfied. They didn't understand why he was chosen.
Among the Noblemen, the Tan Family was one of the weaker ones. They were only in the upper middle class. Moreover, Tan Tao wasn't even a direct descendant of the Tan Family. It was only because Dou Zhengzhen appreciated him that he decided to play with everyone.
Dou Zhengzhen gave Tan Tao a meaningful glance and said, "Go ahead. Bring Brother Qing Xuan to see the local customs of our Jingyun Country."
"Yes."
Tan Tao extended his hand and said respectfully, "Sire Qing Xuan, please."
Yang Qingxuan said, "You're too formal. Just call me Yang Qingxuan."
Tan Tao was stunned. He looked at Dou Zhengzhen and said, "Yes, Yang Qingxuan."
Yang Qingxuan smiled bitterly and shook his head. He bid farewell to everyone and left with Tan Tao.
After leaving the Imperial Palace, Yang Qingxuan asked, "Is there any good places to visit in the Imperial Capital?"
Tan Tao said, "There are taverns, gambling dens, and brothels. I wonder where Student Qing Xuan wants to go?"
Yang Qingxuan looked at him from the corner of his eyes and said, "What do you think?"
Tan Tao thought for a while and said, "Brothels?"
Yang Qingxuan laughed and said, "That's not very good. I still have to compete with that Huang Yu of yours later. If I use up all my energy first, how can I fight later? "
Tan Tao nodded and said, "Then after the competition, I'll bring Student Qing Xuan to relax."
Yang Qingxuan patted his shoulder and said, "Good brother, we'll talk about it when the time comes. I see that Jingyun Country's martial arts is flourishing. It's rich in resources. There are many martial artists carrying swords on the road. "
Tan Tao said, "I understand. There are many shops selling cultivation resources in the Imperial Capital. I'll bring Student Qing Xuan there."
Immediately, the two of them headed west and entered the most prosperous area of the Imperial Capital.
It was a bluestone street that was more than two hundred feet wide. Martial artists came and went, most of them carrying weapons at their waists. The martial arts atmosphere was flourishing.
Tan Tao said, "This market is the most famous in the entire Northern Five Countries. It's called Daluo Market."
"Daluo Market?"
Yang Qingxuan was stunned and said, "Where did this name come from?"
Tan Tao said with a smile, "The management rights of this workshop belong to Daluo Chamber of Commerce. Hence, this name. Daluo Chamber of Commerce is an extremely powerful existence with branches all over the continent. "
"I see."
Yang Qingxuan knew that in this world, there were trade forces that spanned across the continent. They were called "chambers of commerce". Their wealth and strength were not below that of a country or a sect.
If he could obtain the help of such a large chamber of commerce, it would be greatly beneficial for him to find Yang Zhao's whereabouts and find out his background.
He immediately paid attention to this Daluo Chamber of Commerce.
On both sides of the bluestone street, there were shops selling all kinds of martial arts supplies. There were weapons, armors, pills, cultivation methods, spiritual herbs, and so on. There were even spirit stones for exchange.
