Right now, there were two places in Spider City that were crowded with people.
The first was the teleportation portal built by the Spirit Void Sect. Cultivators constantly used it to travel to the Forsaken Forgotten Lands.
After hearing that the spiritual Qi in the Forsaken Forgotten Lands had recovered, many crooked demons and demon beasts from the Great Lake of the Desolate God had snuck in.
This caused the seven great sects, the Heavenly Diabolism Sect, the Blood God Sect, and the Red Devil School to send their young disciples to the Forsaken Forgotten Lands for trials.
The other place was the Tongtian Trading Company's branch in Spider City.
Cultivators from the major sects, as well as disciples and elders from the major clans of the nearby empires, all chose to go to the Tongtian Trading Company's branch in Spider City to search for spiritual materials and medicinal pills that suited them.
They also sold the precious materials that didn't benefit them through the trading company.
"Whoa!"
Yu Yuan and Qin Yun couldn't help but exclaim as they stood in front of the numerous pavilions and watched the crowds of cultivators and demons in human form.
Spider City had become even more prosperous after half a month, and this branch of the trading company was even more impressive.
Standing in front of the pavilions that sold pills, tools, and spell formations, Yu Yuan had the illusion that he was on the Split Yan Islands, the island that belonged to the Tongtian Trading Company.
"Spider City has indeed become more lively recently. That's right. "
Qin Yun laughed softly and said in a pleasant mood, "Speaking of which, I'm taking pleasure in other people's misfortune. Ever since the Divine Might Empire went to war with the Radiance Empire, and the Demon Moon Empire went to war with the Scarlet Sun Empire, Spider City suddenly attracted people from all over."
He knew that Spider City was Yu Zhu's private territory.
He was well aware of the relationship between Yu Yuan and Yu Zhu.
The prosperity of Spider City was, of course, good news for Yu Zhu and Yu Yuan.
"So it's a war!"
Yu Yuan nodded slowly, understanding what was going on.
The return of the evil divinity statue to the Fallen Moons Forbidden Land had changed the destiny of the continent, and led to fierce conflicts between empires.
Cultivators were also the cornerstones of war. They needed all kinds of artifacts and pills to make a cultivator powerful.
In order to survive the cruel war, the cultivators of the four neighboring empires would take out their precious treasures and exchange them with the Tongtian Trading Company for pills and artifacts that could temporarily increase their strength.
Spider City attracted many cultivators because of this.
"Yu Yuan …"
A group of people walked out of the pavilion of the Chamber of Commerce. Su Xiangtian, who was in the lead, looked at Yu Yuan with a complicated expression.
Yu Yuan was stunned. He nodded at Su Xiangtian from more than ten meters away, which was considered a greeting.
Not long ago, the rogue cultivator Liang Jingyin had been killed by Lord Gray Crow. Su Che of the Su Family had also been casually killed by the enraged Gray Crow.
Su Che was brought to Spider City by Su Xiangtian and personally handed over to Liang Jingyin.
He probably did this in hopes of gaining additional support for the Su family through Su Che.
But now …
Su Xiangtian's heart was slightly bitter. He stood there and did not have the intention to communicate with Yu Yuan.
Instead, the burly man who came out side by side with him said in high spirits, "Haha, Xiangtian, he is Yu Yuan?"
Su Xiangtian glanced at him and nodded slightly.
"Let's go! Let's go and say hello! "
The burly man was wearing a black robe with golden edges. He had broad shoulders and a thin waist. Without any explanation, he pulled Su Xiangtian and went straight to Yu Yuan.
Behind Su Xiangtian and him, there were some cultivators who looked like servants and guests. They hurriedly followed.
"Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road." Qin Yun lightly shouted.
As soon as these words came out, Yu Yuan immediately knew that the burly man's identity was special. He asked curiously, "He is?"
"Gao Zhengxing!" Qin Yun said.
"It's actually him!"
Yu Yuan's face sank. He also wanted to see what this new City Lord of Dark Moon City wanted to do by making a ruckus.
Not long after, Gao Zhengxing forcefully pulled Su Xiangtian and led the servants and guests to Yu Yuan and Qin Yun.
"Sect Master Qin, congratulations."
After Gao Zhengxing landed, he first greeted Qin Yun, who had broken through to the Soul Wander Realm. Then, he looked at Yu Yuan with interest. "I am the Gao family's Patriarch. I replaced Yuan Lianyao to oversee Dark Moon City. Yu Yuan, right? I just met your grandfather a few days ago. We hit it off at first sight. "
"Before coming to Dark Moon City, I heard a lot about you. Yu Yuan, are you interested in coming to the City Lord's Mansion and being my guard captain? "
Gao Zhengxing's face was full of smiles. After a round of praise, he actually threw out an olive branch.
Yu Yuan looked at him deeply, shook his head, and said in a strange tone, "City Lord Gao, you have just advanced to the Yin Soul Realm. You want me to serve you after becoming the City Lord of Dark Moon City? Ask Qin Yun what he calls me. "
"Young Master!" Qin Yun shouted respectfully.
"Did you hear that?" Yu Yuan grinned. "He is in the Soul Wander Realm and he calls me Young Master. City Lord Gao, what ability do you have? What confidence and face do you have to ask me to be your guard captain? "
As soon as these words came out, many people nearby laughed.
The one who laughed the loudest was Gao Qin of the Tongtian Trading Company. He held his sword and leaned against the wall. Standing in the shadows, he mocked, "Interesting, really interesting."
"That is Yu Yuan? Dark Moon City's Yu Yuan? "
"If it's not him, who else can it be? I heard from Qi Nandou, who returned to the sect, that this kid's methods are extraordinary at the bottom of the Starry Ash Sea Region. Even Qi Nandou admires him. "
"My Juling School's returnees also admire Yu Yuan very much when they mention him!"
"He is the person who escaped the pursuit of the Heavenly Demon possessed Lin Zhuyun at the Lie Yan Islands! That Astral Beast didn't seem to be able to kill him. "
"Also, it is said that he was the one who released many evil spirits!"
"That Gao Zhengxing, I have never heard of him! He actually has the face to ask Yu Yuan to be his guard captain? He is already so old, but he is only in the early Yin Spirit realm. Does he think too highly of himself? "
"…"
There were many people from the Stellar Luna Sect, Taiyuan Sect, Cloud Water Sect, and Ancient Barren Sect.
Even the cultivators from the Heavenly Diabolism Sect and Juling School were attracted by the two words "Yu Yuan" and came over to take a look.
These people didn't give Gao Zhengxing any face at all and talked loudly.
In their eyes, Gao Zhengxing, who was not famous and had become the new city lord, was a small character not worth mentioning.
On the other hand, Yu Yuan, who had just entered the Subtle realm, was famous. Everyone knew him!
"Yu Yuan, have you forgotten that your Yu Family is still in Dark Moon City and is still under my control?" As Gao Zhengxing listened to the clamor, he felt like he was being slapped in the face, causing his old face to hurt.
He didn't expect this kid from the Yu Family to be so famous and recognized by so many people.
"You are the city lord of Dark Moon City, not the emperor of the Demon Moon Empire." Yu Yuan sneered and said, "What? You want to do something to my Yu Family as the city lord? Haven't you already done what you should have done? Didn't you let the Gao Family take over the mines that my Yu Family took back? "
"I did it according to the rules!" Gao Zhengxing shouted.
"The war is about to start, and I will be joining the next batch. I came to Spider City to buy some things." Su Xiangtian nodded lightly at Yu Yuan. "I have things to do, so I will take my leave first."
"Okay." Yu Yuan nodded.
Gao Zhengxing wanted to say something, but Gao Qin from the Tongtian Trading Company shouted, "Yu Yuan, don't waste time with him. The manager of the trading company invites you in!"
Gao Zhengxing, who was about to speak, was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
When he came over with Su Xiangtian to talk to Gao Qin, Gao Qin's nose was in the air and he didn't want to talk to him.
But when Yu Yuan came over, Gao Qin immediately showed a flattering expression and said that Zhu Peining invited him in.
Suddenly, he realized that he, the city lord of Dark Moon City, wasn't recognized in Spider City and wasn't taken seriously.
How did Yu Yuan gain the respect of these people?
