The Capital
Ye Zichen yawned as he sat on the bumpy carriage. He had never had a good night's sleep.
That was why he was woken up by Stone and co. before the sun even rose.
"Sleep, sleep, sleep. Are you a pig? Why do you always look like you can't wake up?"
Lil 'Yu glared angrily at Ye Zichen. Ye Zichen rolled his eyes at her without replying.
Did I want to do that? It's all because that girl, Xue Lan, tormented me the night before. Ahem, don't get the wrong idea. They didn't do anything, it was just that girl who kept asking him if he was the master.
How can a human's nose be so good? Xuan-Yuan Xiang was clearly a spiritual body, but he was actually able to find her through her aura.
Ye Zichen couldn't help but shake his head as he thought back to what happened the night before.
He had even activated the Fiery Eyes of Truth in order to determine whether the girl was a human or not. However, she was indeed a normal person, and was only around the level of Body Tempering.
Of course, the girl could smell Xuan-Yuan Xiang's location, but she couldn't see it.
Ye Zichen naturally had to use his ability to lie without blushing, and continuously deny the fact that the master was him. Despite that, Ye Zichen's gaze towards Xue Lan seemed to be filled with disbelief when she left.
"Village Chief, we're here!"
The villager driving the carriage shouted. Ye Zichen and co. immediately jumped off the carriage.
"Thanks for your hard work. Hurry back!"
"Alright."
After the villager drove the carriage away, everyone looked up and saw the glorious city in front of them …
"Zeze, it's rather grand."
Ye Zichen had seen everything in the Modern Realm. Although the city was built rather grand, no matter how grand it was … It couldn't be as grand as the Modern Realm's palace!
What a joke!
"Oh my god, just how many times bigger is this place compared to our village?"
Stone acted like an idiot who just entered the city. Xue Qi patted his shoulder to signal him to stop yelling.
Actually, it was his first time in the city as well, so he was rather shocked by the grand buildings in front of him.
"How many?" The guards at the city gates, who were wearing black metal armor, asked. Lil 'Yu smiled, "Four!"
"Do you have a permit?"
"No!" Xiao Yu shook her head and took out two silver coins from her pocket and handed them to the guard. "We want a temporary residence permit for seven days!"
"En!" The guard nodded and four tokens appeared in his hand. "The tokens will disappear in seven days and you will be automatically expelled from the capital city!"
"Understood!"
Once they entered the city, Stone opened his eyes wide and said, "What's the matter with you?"
"You need to pay to stay here. Twenty immortal shells for seven days, that's too expensive!"
"This is nothing. We're only entering the city. If we stay in an inn, it'll be even more expensive," Xiao Yu smiled faintly. At that moment, Xue Qi raised his eyebrows. "The spiritual energy here …"
"Do you feel it? Because the capital city was protected by a formation, the spiritual energy here was easier for people to absorb. Therefore, most powerful people would stay in the capital city. Of course, if you can buy property here, you can stay here permanently. If our villagers can live here, can you imagine to what extent we will develop in the future? "
Xiao Yu squinted her eyes with a smile. She knew a lot more than Xue Qi and co. It was because she knew about the situation in the capital that she came to the city …
"This is truly a great place. It would be great if everyone in the village could live here," Xue Qi was also moved.
Xue Qi's expression also changed. In just a short period of time, he felt as if his strength had increased. He truly didn't dare to imagine what would happen if their villagers could stay here all year round.
"But … Just now, we needed everyone to have a token when we came in. Could we villagers also …"
"Naturally not. If we buy the manor, we can apply to become a force or a family. The City Lord's Manor's Keeper will record it down, then we will be able to move freely within the city. If there are any newborns, the Keeper will know immediately and automatically add them. "
"That's amazing."
Ye Zichen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard Xiao Yu's words. I thought that the system here would be the same as the one in the Modern Realm, where children would board the plane when they were born …
I didn't think that it would be fully automatic here. That's amazing.
"The methods of a Sky Immortal aren't as simple as you think," Xiao Yu smiled.
"But … the prerequisite is that we can sell these black crystals, right?" Xue Qi intentionally lowered his voice. "We're not familiar with this place, so where are we supposed to go to sell them?"
"About this …"
Xiao Yu also revealed a troubled expression. She was rather knowledgeable, but that didn't mean that she had the means to sell these black crystals.
"I do know a black market, but the people there … I'm afraid of them doing the same to me!"
"F * ck, didn't I just owe you guys a few dozen celeste? Do you have to treat Lord Fatty like this? Did Lord Fatty spend a lot of money here before? You guys are truly heartless! "
At that moment, a fatty in blue clothes stood in front of a restaurant near Ye Zichen and co. and cursed with his hands on his waist.
Seven or eight bulky thugs stood in front of him, along with a seductively dressed woman.
"Our restaurant doesn't take credit. What you spent before is what you spent before, and what you spent was voluntary. Now that you don't have money, you came here to spend? Do you think that the girls here are easy to bully? "
…
This doesn't seem like a restaurant. Why does it feel like …
"Look at your idiot face. Isn't it just a few dozen celeste? Lord Fatty can tell. Do you really think that Lord Fatty has no money? Here … "
Slap.
The fatty took out a small jade bead from his pocket and chucked it over.
"No need to keep the change. Just treat it as Lord Fatty's reward. Don't think about Lord Fatty coming here to spend money in the future. Also, Lord Fatty will remember your insults clearly. In a place like the capital … I think that you really don't know Lord Fatty's strength. Just wait for your shitty place to close down! "
With that, the fatty turned around and left with a cold smile. The seductively dressed woman didn't take his words seriously at all. She merely picked up the bead and raised her eyebrows.
"A low-grade spiritual bead is worth a thousand celeste. It seems like laoniang made a profit."
The fatty felt his heart bleed when he threw the spiritual bead out. F * ck, I didn't want to throw that spiritual bead. That's a huge loss.
Bang.
At that moment, the fatty, who was walking with his head lowered, bumped into someone.
"Are you f * cking blind?"
The person that the fatty bumped into was Ye Zichen. Actually, Ye Zichen had purposely let the fatty bump into him. Lil 'Yu and Xue Qi, who were on the side, pulled him back. I have to be careful in the capital.
Yet, Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows with a fake smile.
