< Today's second update! I still need to keep my monthly ticket … third and fourth update … >
Legend has it that two nouveau riches from the countryside entered Tian Xiang City with five thousand taels of silver. They thought that they were rich and overbearing, and wanted to go to the Aristocratic Hall to have some fun. But after they arrived, they asked the guard at the door, "What can I do with five thousand taels of silver? How long can I play with it? "
The guard looked at the two nouveau riches with pity in his eyes. He pointed and said, "Do you see that? There is an aristocratic teahouse over there. You can pay five thousand taels of silver and find two seats on the first floor. You can enjoy a pot of tea there. But remember, you can only sit there for half an hour. After that, you can come out and go home … "
Another piece of advice: When you drink tea, you must be honest. Don't make any requests just because the girl serving you tea is pretty … As long as the girl sits down, yes, just simply sits down, once her butt touches the chair at your table, regardless of whether you have any other requests, you will definitely not be able to leave this place without 50,000 taels of silver …
The two 'rich' people thought for a long time before they came to the conclusion that five thousand taels of silver was only enough for a pot of tea in the Aristocratic Hall. They couldn't do anything else. Even if they didn't lack money, they wouldn't be able to spend it like that! Thus, he left with his tail between his legs, saving the five thousand taels of silver that he had spent …
Later on, this little story became a joke. Many people angrily accused the Aristocratic Hall of being heartless and making fun of the poor. But those who could afford to spend money flocked to it like a flock of ducks. Not only did they not feel ashamed, but they also felt proud.
Are you a noble?
Have you been to the Aristocratic Hall?
Haven't been there?
Then what kind of noble are you? Bullshit!
Talk business?
Sure, let's go to the Aristocratic Hall's teahouse.
What? Can't afford it?
You can't even afford to go to the Aristocratic Hall, and you still have the nerve to talk business with me? Then forget it. If you lose money, can you afford to pay for it?!
Do you have anything auctioned in the Aristocratic Hall?
No? Then you're too ridiculous …
The Aristocratic Hall is something only super nobles can afford! Only super nobles are eligible to enter! One's wallet would be as shriveled as an eggplant once they entered the Aristocratic Hall. But, they would feel as if they were a superhuman with a meteoric rise to the heavens once they came out.
You can enter the Aristocratic Hall …
You'll be an elite!
This was the pinnacle!
This was the extreme!
This was the basic guiding principle that Jun Dashao had formulated when he first established the Aristocratic Hall! And the slogan was all the same …
After Tang Yuan took over, he vigorously promoted this idea, spreading it to the entire Xuan Xuan Continent! As the reputation of the Evil Monarch grew, so did the reputation of the Aristocratic Hall! It seemed as if the Aristocratic Hall's price had been rising like a rocket.
But the higher the price, the more people would go!
This was something that ordinary people couldn't understand …
This was the legendary "idiot effect" …
The medicinal ingredients that had flowed out of Jun Dashao's hands were no longer worth their attention. Therefore, the Aristocratic Hall immediately started to auction them. Normally, one could buy it with one thousand gold taels. But, as long as it was auctioned by the Aristocratic Hall … then one wouldn't be able to buy it for less than fifty thousand gold taels!
Why? I am a noble! What I'm here to auction isn't spirit medicine, it's my status! Understand?! Bidding for a thousand gold taels? That's really throwing the face of the nobles …
When a pot of tea was priced at 50 silver taels, no one drank it. But when it rose to 500 silver taels, it was as crowded as a marketplace … and when it rose to 5,000 silver taels, one actually needed to make a reservation …
This teahouse was one of the most low-end businesses of the Aristocratic Hall. So, one could well imagine how terrifying Fatty's net worth was at this moment …
Money could enslave ghosts and even gods!
When the amount of money reached a level that could move anyone in the world, even if you didn't have any shocking strength, you would still be a person that could shake the world!
The entire Xuan Xuan Continent was in an uproar. All the major powers were mobilized, and all of them were elites! This was not only an invitation to the Evil Monarch's opening ceremony. It was also a great opportunity to show off in front of the heroes of the world!
Who would be willing to let this opportunity go?
The Evil Monarch's opening ceremony caused the entire continent to boil! From the three Holy Lands to the various families of the secular world! Even some of the lone bandits started to move at the same time …
Some of those who didn't receive an invitation were also fretting over gifts … If they could have a good gift that the Evil Monarch took a liking to … that would be like reaching the heavens in a single step …
It didn't matter if they had received an invitation or not … at least two-thirds of the people were worried about the congratulatory gifts!
They definitely couldn't go empty-handed. But what should they send?
What should they send … that would allow them to stand out in front of the Evil Monarch?
I've heard that this Old Master is an extremely unreasonable fellow … if the gift doesn't stand out, it's fine. But if it doesn't satisfy him … it's likely that your life will be in danger …
As a result, many wealthy families started to have incidents of theft, robbery, kidnapping, etc …
They didn't want gold or silver. They only wanted rare, rare, precious, and precious items …
There was a famous old rich man who had a good relationship with the heroes and aristocratic families. However, after this incident, the only son of this old rich man's family was kidnapped twice by "familiar friends" within three days … Furthermore, the black iron stone floor of the family's vault was almost trampled open by the thieves …
After this incident, the old moneybags removed all the mirrors in the house … If he wanted to look at himself in the mirror, he could go to the secret vault. The floor was bright and clear, and one could even see the slightest hair … and it seemed to be much clearer than a bronze mirror …
In the summer, if he wore a pair of shorts and stood in front of the secret vault, he could even clearly count how many strands of hair he had …
…
But towards the chaos in the pugilistic world, Jun Dashao actually did not know anything at all.
Right now, he was walking alone in the deep mountains and dense forests …
This time, when he left the Misty Mansion and returned to the Xuan Xuan Continent, he did not return from the place he had entered from. When he had entered the Xuan Xuan Continent, it was not far from the Dongfang Family. But when Jun Moxie returned this time, he discovered that he was actually in an unfamiliar place. Although this place was also filled with mountains and dense forests, it was completely different from the entrance he had entered from before!
Looking into the distance from the top of the mountain, he discovered that there was not the slightest bit of familiar scenery around him. The forest here was extremely dense, and even with Jun Dashao's eyesight, he could not see too far …
But Jun Moxie was not in a rush. As long as he was already back in the Xuan Xuan Continent, it was fine. He casually chose a direction and walked forward slowly.
There was really no need to be in a rush. He only needed to find a place with people and find out where exactly this place was. After identifying the direction, he could rush at full speed. Even if the distance was longer, he could still rush back to Tian Nan in a few days' time!
In addition, ever since yesterday, after Qian Xun had come out of the Holy Tree's blood essence, Dashao had already forcibly fed him food four or five times. At this moment, the Snake King's pulse was getting stronger and stronger, and his breathing was getting heavier and heavier. His condition was getting better, and it seemed like he could wake up at any time …
At such a critical moment, how could Jun Moxie simply delay his wish to wake up the Snake King just to hurry on his journey? This pitiful woman had been in a coma for a few months because of him …
In this period of time, Jun Moxie had asked himself countless times: I first took Guan Qing Han, then accepted Mei Xueyan, and after accepting Mei Xueyan, I couldn't abandon Guan Qing Han. I even accepted Dugu Xiaoyi, and now, I took Miao Xiao Miao …
Then, why can't I accept the Snake King?
This is a world where men are superior to women, and where polygamy is common. Even women don't care about it. Then, don't tell me that I don't dare to bear the responsibility that I should bear?
Did they really have to push these intelligent and affectionate women to some ordinary people? Would they really be able to find happiness? No, if I really do that, it will definitely not be happiness for them. It will only drive them into a bottomless abyss, and I will not be able to live with a guilty conscience for the rest of my life!
Since that's the case, what am I afraid of? Who am I afraid of?
Back then, Guan Qing Han was the target of a crusade against by the world. She was condemned and reviled by the world, but I still managed to resist it! Could it be that after going through so many things, I am afraid of the slightest thing?
I am me! I am Jun Moxie!
I am the monarch of all evils in this world!
Why should I care about what others think?
I will do as I please! That's enough!
As for other people's cold eyes …
Who do they think they are?
If you provoke me, I will slaughter your entire family!
Thinking of this, Jun Moxie felt his mind clear up, and his whole body relaxed …
In that moment of clarity, he once again recalled the Jun Family's ancestral teachings: If you have a bird between your legs, you must be a man. Indomitable spirit, go to hell!
He couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Go to hell! Really go to hell, hahaha … "
His heroic laughter pierced through the clouds and the wind, startling the birds in the mountains and causing them to fly away in panic …
Suddenly, Jun Moxie clearly heard a weak moan coming from the Hongjun Pagoda …
Jun Moxie instantly determined the source of the sound, and couldn't help but feel overjoyed. His body flashed, and he suddenly disappeared from the forest. His whole body had already entered the Hongjun Pagoda …
Inside the Hong Jun Pagoda, the Snake King Green Hunter was supporting her frail body with great difficulty. Her beautiful eyes were looking at the surrounding scenery in a puzzled manner. Her eyes were full of perplexity.
"You're awake?" Jun Moxie had returned to his original appearance after leaving the Misty Mansion.
Seeing that Qian Xun had woken up, he couldn't help but ask in a gentle voice.
"You …" Snake King's face flashed with a trace of pleasant surprise. Then, his face darkened, and he lowered his head, saying in a low voice, "… Brother-in-law … where are we? How come I'm not dead? "
"Brother-in-law is here. How could I let you die? This place is indeed a secret place! "Jun Moxie replied with a smile. But, his heart was inexplicably sour. When Qian Xun had woken up, her beautiful eyes had been filled with ecstasy upon seeing him. Her expression of contentment had been seen by him. This woman had been full of confusion and fear towards this strange place. But, all the confusion and fear in her eyes had turned into peace the moment he had appeared!
