Nouveau riche
There were many mountains, rivers, and lakes in the Western Territory, and it was the strongest territory in terms of overall strength.
The largest and tallest mountain in the Burning Sky Continent, the Yue Yang Mountain, stood above the Western Territory.
The Teleportation Formation to enter the Western Territory was located in a city called Wangyue City.
As long as the sky was clear and the air was clear, the silhouette of Yueyang Mountain could be seen from afar from Wangyue City. It was really like a path to the heavens, piercing through the blue dome of heaven.
At that moment, Gu Xuan was walking out of Wangyue City.
Wangyue City could only be considered a medium-sized city. Its main function was to be a transportation hub.
There were many teleportation arrays that led to nearby cities, danger zones, secret realms, and other places. However, they were all very expensive.
All along, Gu Xuan could be said to be rich enough to rival a country. But now, he finally experienced the terror of poverty.
Every teleportation required at least one Earth Rank Low Grade Spiritual Treasure or one Heaven Primary Elixir.
If it was further away, it would be even more expensive.
The teleportation to the Western Territory cost Gu Xuan a Medium Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure and more than ten Primary Heaven Elixirs.
So far, Gu Xuan had used up all of his middle-grade and low-grade Earth Class Spiritual Treasures, Tian Yuan Elixirs, and Fire-condensing Elixirs.
It couldn't be helped. Gu Xuan was now a dignified Pill Emperor. His battle prowess far exceeded the half-step Martial Emperor Realm. Who would have Heavenly Yuan Pills and Earth High-Grade Spiritual Treasures on him?
It was already a miracle that they had been able to scrounge up enough money to pay for the trip to Western Territory.
If he wanted to teleport again, he would have to use an earth-tier high-grade spirit treasure.
Gu Xuan was sure that if he really took out a high-grade earth-rank spirit treasure to pay for the teleportation fee, then when he exited the teleportation array, endless troubles would roll in.
Although Gu Xuan wasn't afraid of trouble, he had already spent ten days coming here. It would take him another ten days to go back.
In other words, he could only stay in the Western Territory for ten days at most.
Otherwise, they would miss the Vermilion Bird Grand Competition that was going to be held by the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect twenty days later.
"Fortunately, I've already roughly locked onto the position of my soul. Otherwise, I would really have to take out a high-grade Earth Rank Spirit Treasure to pay for the teleportation fee."
When Gu Xuan walked forward, he discovered that there were many more martial artists around him. There were both men and women. Their realms were not high, but their conduct was incomparably smooth. The word "shrewd" was nearly written on their faces.
These astute people specifically picked martial artists with high realms or extraordinary bearings to greet.
"Young Master, are you taking a flying ship? My family's spaceship is big and good. There are three tiers of individual rooms, high, low, and low. There are also young maids to accompany me. The price is fair, and I don't cheat anyone … "
"Sir, please take my family's Giant Lava Eagle. This is a Flame Beast with the bloodline of the Kunpeng. It has a good temper, fast speed, and stable flight.
Although Gu Xuan had intentionally restrained his aura, as an Alchemy Emperor throughout the ages, his body naturally had an unusual aura. When it landed in the eyes of the group of shrewd kids from the various forces, they naturally would not let it go.
An old man with a handlebar mustache walked up with a smile and said respectfully, "Young Master, I can tell at a glance that you're not an ordinary disciple of an aristocratic family. Where does Young Master want to go? Why don't you take my Taisheng Trading Firm's flying ship? Our trading company specially prepared maids from the Fox Clan, and they are unique. If you miss this opportunity, there won't be another one. "
"This direction, roughly 30,000 miles north. What's the approximate location?"
Gu Xuan pointed in a direction and asked.
The old man with a handlebar mustache was delighted. There was hope!
"Young Master, that should be the capital of the Great Mist Empire, Heavenly Mist City. My family just happens to have a caravan heading to the Great Mist Empire, and we'll be taking the Nine Eagles Battleship. There's absolutely no problem with our safety. One trip will only cost 100 Heaven Origin Pills. What do you think, Young Master? "
The old man with a handlebar mustache became more and more attentive. If this business could be concluded, it would be a big business. His commission would be at least one Heaven Origin Pill.
Right at this moment, a young girl around the age of 13 or 14, whose body was slightly dirty, suddenly shouted.
"The Sea of Clouds Trading Company is short of two guests heading to Heavenly Mist City. Only 20 Heaven Origin Pills! If you reserve a seat for the return trip in advance, you'll only be charged a total of 30 Heaven Origin Pills. "
The young girl's shout immediately caused the faces of the other workers who were soliciting customers to turn unsightly.
The Sea of Clouds Trading Company was the company they hated the most.
"Scram! You stinking girl, you're here to steal business again. Other companies start at 50 Heaven Origin Pills. Only your company is charging so cheap. Is there nothing fishy about this? Everyone, please don't go to the Sea of Clouds Trading Company. This company specializes in doing unscrupulous business. At least three batches of customers who went to their company have already been robbed by the Eighteen Thieves. "
The young girl was so angry that her face flushed red. "You're talking nonsense. You're the one who's charging recklessly. You're also the one who's confusing the customers with messy maids. Along the way, you're also promoting all kinds of trashy Spirit Treasures and Elixirs. My father said that it's beneath his dignity to be associated with you! Also, the so-called Eighteen Thieves are obviously people you hired to impersonate. "
"Stinking girl, you still dare to quibble. If you dare to steal customers again, I'll beat you to death!" The old man with a handlebar mustache said angrily.
Suddenly …
A King Stage martial artist flashed and appeared beside the young girl. He ruthlessly slapped her a few times, causing the young girl to lie on the ground. Blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. She groaned for a while before she bitterly crawled up.
Her body was even dirtier.
"Scram, stinking girl. If you don't scram, I don't mind shattering all your clothes."
The King Stage martial artist stared at the young girl and laughed loudly.
"Stinking hooligan! One day, when my father recovers, he'll teach you a good lesson! "
The young girl's face was full of hatred. Tears flowed down uncontrollably, but she quickly regained her determined look.
"Your father will teach us a lesson? If your father isn't taught a lesson by us now, he'll be thanking the gods. "
The King Stage martial artist who had just beaten the young girl appeared behind the young girl with a hideous smile. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes as he slapped towards the young girl's head.
The young girl's eyes widened in horror. She was only at the peak of the Venerable Stage. How could she block the attack of a King Stage martial artist?
Gu Xuan had been watching this scene for a long time. He didn't want to meddle in other people's business. His help might not necessarily be of much benefit to the young girl. After all, he would be leaving soon.
However, seeing that the King Stage martial artist's attack was so vicious. He actually wanted to use his hidden power to severely injure the young girl. After a few hours, she would be in a state worse than death. This was unbearable.
Taking a step forward, Gu Xuan had already appeared in front of the young girl.
"Scram!"
Gu Xuan only said one word before he spat out the Supreme Force from his mouth. The void shook, and the King Stage martial artist was directly sent flying. With a bang, he crashed into a huge rock. He spat out blood and fainted.
When he woke up, he would find that he could no longer mobilize any energy in his body.
"An Emperor Stage martial artist is so powerful!"
The young boys looked at Gu Xuan.
There was a hint of fear in their eyes.
At this moment, Gu Xuan suddenly narrowed his eyes.
A man wearing a black cloak that covered his face walked in front of the young girl.
"Here are 20 Primary Heaven Pills. I'll reserve a spot."
The corner of Gu Xuan's mouth curled into an imperceptible smile.
He casually took out a Spirit Treasure from his spatial ring and handed it to the young girl.
"I'll take the last spot."
After saying this, the corner of Gu Xuan's mouth twitched. It seemed that he had handed the young girl a Peak Earth Rank Spirit Treasure.
This was troublesome.
The young boys around them breathed heavily.
