The two of them came to the front of the Holy Palace. Ning Qi looked up and still could not see the end of the city wall. In front of them, there was a huge city gate.
The gate was wide open. Occasionally, there would be people walking out from the inside and in from the outside.
When these people walked past Ning Qi and Xie Linjiaqiang, they all looked at them with disdain.
There were countless small towns nearby. The nearest town was only two hundred feet away from the city gate. When the people in the town saw people coming out, they were excited and looked at them expectantly. When they saw people going in, they were envious and wished that they were that person.
Beside the city gate stood two expressionless soldiers.
Their eyes were looking straight ahead and their bodies were motionless like statues.
However, the aura they gave off was terrifying.
"Using a Fighting Grandmaster to guard the gate. How extravagant …"
Ning Qi sighed in his heart.
Then, Ning Qi walked towards the city gate.
Xie Linjiaqiang saw this and was stunned. He gritted his teeth and followed.
"Eh, who are those two fellows?"
"I think I've seen one of them before. He's been here for a few months. He's a lone cultivator. What do they want? To enter the Holy Palace? "
"Could it be that they can't help but want to plead with the two seniors guarding the city?"
"What's so strange about this? Isn't it like this every time new people come?"
In the nearby town, everyone looked at Ning Qi and Xie Linjiaqiang gloatingly.
"Stop."
The soldiers guarding the city looked at Ning Qi and Xie Linjiaqiang coldly.
"We want to enter the city."
Ning Qi smiled faintly.
"Enter the city?"
One of the soldiers had a mocking expression on his face as he scanned Ning Qi from head to toe. "Whose invitation do you have?"
"I don't have one."
Ning Qi smiled.
Xie Linjiaqiang's expression changed and he laughed bitterly. Why did he follow Ning Qi here?
Thinking of this, he whispered, "Brother Ning, let's go?"
Ning Qi ignored him. He looked at the soldier and said, "One thousand Middle Spiritual Crystals and you can enter the city, right?"
"Yes."
A sliver of suspicion flashed through the eyes of the two soldiers when they heard this. Could it be that Ning Qi was from some great clan?
"What? Does Brother Ning actually intend to enter the city like this? Does he really have so many Spirit Crystals? "
A trace of shock flashed across Xie Linjiaqiang's eyes.
If he had so many Spiritual Crystals, what was the point of going to the Holy Palace? It was better to just buy cultivation resources! Even if he entered the Fang Saint Palace, he might not be able to gain the favor of the Fang Clan!
He was deeply puzzled.
"If you have a thousand Middle Spiritual Crystals, you can indeed enter the city. Just put the Spiritual Crystals on it."
One of the soldiers pointed at a stone statue next to the city wall. This stone statue was of a lion with a disc on its head.
Seeing this, Ning Qi smiled and walked to the side of the lion statue.
Then, he took out handfuls of Medium Spiritual Crystals from the Space Bag. Each handful contained exactly 100 pieces. After taking out 20 handfuls, Ning Qi smiled at the two and said, "Do you want to count them?"
The two soldiers looked at each other. One of them walked to the side of the round plate and counted it. Sure enough, there were Middle Spiritual Crystals and the amount was exactly 2,000!
"Mm, just in time. The two of you can enter the city now."
He looked at Ning Qi and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes. He was secretly guessing Ning Qi's background.
Even he might not be able to take out so many Middle Spiritual Crystals at once!
Xie Linjiaqiang looked at the Spiritual Crystals and took a deep breath. He looked at Ning Qi in disbelief. He only reacted when Ning Qi called out to him. He quickly followed Ning Qi into the Holy Palace in ecstasy.
At this time, the people in the nearby towns who had wanted to laugh at the two of them were dumbfounded.
Three of them had regretful expressions on their faces.
"Damn it, he actually has so many Spiritual Crystals. If I had known, I would have done it earlier!"
"It's all Xie Linjiaqiang's fault. We thought it was his friend, so we gave up on this fat sheep!"
"I don't know how long we'll have to wait to meet such a fat sheep with such a low cultivation. We've been here for more than a year and we've only managed to collect 700 to 800 Middle Spiritual Crystals. It's not even enough for one person to enter the city!"
As the three of them spoke, they sighed heavily.
…
After entering the city, Xie Linjiaqiang looked around curiously. He was excited as if he was dreaming. He never thought that he would be able to follow Ning Qi into the real Holy Palace so easily!
"Brother Xie Linjiaqiang, what do you plan to do next?"
Ning Qi smiled.
"Well, I don't know what I plan to do at the moment. I want to go to the Fang Family and ask them if they accept people. Brother Ning, do you want to come with me?"
The Fang Family? Ning Qi smiled and nodded. He said, "Alright, I'll go with you."
The Holy Palace was divided into the Outer City and the Inner City. Most of the people living in the Outer City were from the Fang Family. There were an estimated three to four hundred thousand people, and ten to twenty thousand of them were outsiders.
The Inner City was where the true elites of the Fang Family resided. Usually, the top family, the Fang Family, referred to the Inner City of the Holy Palace.
There were no obstacles in entering the Inner City. However, there was a rule. When the sky turned dark, one had to return to the Outer City. Otherwise, they would be expelled from the Holy Palace. For the time being, no one dared to break this rule.
On the way from the Outer City to the Inner City, Ning Qi finally understood why people from the outside wanted to enter the Inner City. Any elixir here was several times more expensive than the outside world. On the other hand, it also meant that the salary here was high!
For example, if a peddler sold the same elixir, he could only earn three to four hundred Lower Spiritual Crystals. However, in the Holy Palace, he could earn more than one thousand and five hundred, and sometimes even two thousand. The people in the Inner City of the Fang Family were even more generous. One tip from them was a Spiritual Crystal that an ordinary person would not be able to earn in a few years outside!
In the Inner City.
"Brother Ning! That should be the Fang Family! "
Xie Linjiaqiang pointed to a magnificent house not far away and said excitedly.
At the door of the house, there seemed to be a recruitment drive. There was a long queue of about three to four hundred people.
Xie Linjiaqiang quickly pulled Ning Qi and ran over to the queue.
Ning Qi did not say anything and joined the queue with him. There were people in front who left dejectedly, while there were people who entered the house happily. There were people who came to join the queue.
Just like that, when it was Xie Linjiaqiang and Ning Qi's turn.
An old man who seemed to be an elder of the Fang Family looked at them calmly. "What are you applying for?"
"Servants!"
"To challenge Fang Mo!"
