Unrivaled Medicine God, page 750
If he had long known this was the case, he would guard here without moving a step and absolutely not let the Purple Extreme Hall escape.
The corners of Heavenstar’s mouth also kept twitching and he said with gnashed teeth, “That kid has obtained no idea how much benefits! I wish to crush him into dregs right now!!”
The one with the greatest losses was Heavenstar.
The Blood Soul Curse that he had spent an immeasurable price to nurture was already completely destroyed now.
He even subserviently gave the Profound Yellow Cauldron to Ye Yuan in order to ingratiate himself to Ye Yuan.
Finally, he even had his soul force devoured by the Soul Suppressing Pearl, almost perishing.
Now, he also discovered that Ye Yuan moved the entire ruins away. How could he not be furious?
“Puhwark!”
Thinking of the detestable aspects aggravated his injuries, Heavenstar spewed out a mouthful of old blood.
Di En gave him a glance rather pitifully and said with a sigh, “There’s some trouble now! There’s totally no way to find out this kid’s origins. Source Night this name appeared very suddenly too. Now, he’s gone. We also don’t have any head or tail if we want to track him.”
Hearing Di En’s words, Heavenstar almost spewed out another mouthful of old blood.
Nothing was more sorrowful than this. He actually did not even know who his opponent was!
“Could it be that … we’re going to let him off just like this?” Heavenstar said unwillingly.
Di En smiled coldly and said, “Let him off? How is that possible! Suffering such a huge loss, do you think that Lord Hall Master will let him off? Relax, even though there isn’t his news for the time being, a genius such as him, the light can’t be hidden! How can an alchemist capable of triggering Great Dao Heavenly Melody be buried in the dust?”
…
The imperial city’s prosperity was far from what capital cities could compare to. Not anybody had the qualifications to enter too.
Entering the imperial city required paying divine essence stones.
Ye Yuan looked at the clearly marked prices on the city gates and the corners of his mouth could not help twitching too.
Ten-day temporary token, 500 low-grade divine essence stones.
One-year temporary token, 5000 low-grade divine essence stones.
Ten-year temporary token, 50 thousand low-grade divine essence stones.
100-year temporary token, 500 thousand low-grade divine essence stones.
Permanent token, 50 million low-grade divine essence stones.
Inside the imperial city, people without identity tokens would be directly blotted out.
When the token expired, people who remained behind would be directly annihilated.
This price, ordinary martial artists could not afford it at all!
An Origin Deity Realm martial artist’s entire net worth was merely a million low-grade divine essence stones.
This was also to say that an Origin Deity Realm powerhouse spending all of his assets could only stay in the imperial city for several hundred years.
Several hundred years of time were merely a snap of a finger to an Origin Deity Realm powerhouse.
Furthermore, spending so much divine essence stones, it was also just buying an identity token.
Want to survive in the imperial city, one still needed to find a place to stay. That was also another considerable expense.
Hence, wanting to stay in the Imperial city, one needed to keep making money continuously!
But even if it was so expensive, there were still countless powerhouses that flocked here like ducks.
Imperial city and capital city were two entirely different concepts.
At the beginning of each imperial city’s establishment, enormous spirit gathering formations would be set up underground.
The spiritual energy in imperial cities was extremely plentiful. Staying here, even you did not deliberately cultivate, the growth rate of divine essence could also compare to capital cities.
Hence, even if this identity token was more expensive, people would still yearn for this place.
And the divine essence stones collected each year by the imperial city’s city lord manor was an astronomical figure.
“Next!” The city guard selling tokens said lazily.
“A 200-year identity token.” Ye Yuan said coolly.
That city guard’s eyebrows raised, looking at Ye Yuan with some surprise.
Rich!
When purchasing temporary identity tokens, most were one year or ten year periods. A 100-year period was seriously too expensive. The average person could not afford it at all.
Ye Yuan could feel the richness of the imperial city’s spiritual energy. This made him rather moved.
If he could, he planned on settling down here.
One million divine essence stones were just a light drizzle to the Ye Yuan who was in possession of five billion.
“Tsk tsk, no idea which capital city’s young master this is, so rich!”
“Sigh, the life of a magnate always makes people envy.”
“Comparing people to people is indeed odious! If I had so much money, how good would it be!”
…
The city guard gave Ye Yuan a profound glance and handed two tokens to him.
Ye Yuan received the token indifferently and left.
“Heh, another hothead. Reckon that a few days after entering the city, he’ll be toyed to death by people,” the city guard said with a laugh to his companion.
“Haha, that isn’t something that we have to worry about. As long as it doesn’t cause too much trouble, it’s fine,” his companion said with a laugh.
The two people’s gaze when looking at Ye Yuan leaving had a gloating look.
Ye Yuan had just entered the city gates and a bunch of men by the roadside came up to greet.
“Heh, this little brother looks very unfamiliar, first time entering the city, right? Want a guide or not? I’m called Ah Four. Not that I’m bragging to you, this Heavenly Eagle Imperial City’s major streets and small alleys, there isn’t one that I’m not familiar with! One day just needs ten pieces of divine essence stones, equally honest with the elderly and young children!”
“Little Brother, don’t listen to him talk nonsense. I, Hu San, am the know-all here!”
“Little Brother, let me be a guide, guarantee your satisfaction!”
…
A group of men clamored to get a word in, directly surrounding Ye Yuan in the middle.
The imperial city’s boundary was too big. It was not what can be familiarized in two or three days.
Many people were only very familiar with a small region after staying here for a year.
Therefore, it gave birth to being a guide, this occupation.
When newcomers entered the city for the first time, they did not know their way at all.
Ye Yuan came to find Little Fatty. Without a guide leading the way, he would probably have to take quite a few detours.
Ye Yuan swept a glance and directly threw ten pieces of divine essence stones to that Ah Four and said coolly, “You then, bring me to the Myriad Treasure Tower.”
This Ah Four looked very slick, his reaction was very sharp too.
With him leading the way, perhaps it could save considerable trouble. Hence, Ye Yuan chose him.
Ah Four received the divine essence stones and said with an excited look, “Okay!”
Finished talking, Ah Four led Ye Yuan away.
The other guys all revealed disappointed looks. But after the two people went far away, they started discussing.
“What a big fat sheep. Didn’t even bat an eyelid taking out a million divine essence stones!”
“Ah Four this punk is too crafty. A moment of carelessness and he took the lead again.”
“Done with this job, Ah Four this kid probably doesn’t need to come out and work for a while.”
…
Ye Yuan already left and naturally could not hear these people’s discussions. Ah Four was currently introducing to Ye Yuan the imperial city’s local customs and practices with spittle flying everywhere.
Chapter 1531. Chill at the Balls |
“Little Brother really has a sharp eye for discerning people. I, Ah Four, am a famous living map in the southern city! The matters in Heavenly Eagle Imperial City, there’s none that I don’t know!” Ah Four’s saliva flew everywhere.
Ye Yuan swept a glance over him and said coolly, “Then you tell me about this Heavenly Eagle Imperial City’s situation.”
Ah Four had an excited look as he said, “Heh, this isn’t a problem …”
Ah Four started to spew things unceasingly, introducing the Heavenly Eagle Imperial City’s structure.
The Heavenly Eagle Imperial City was divided into a total of five major regions, north, south, east, west, four cities, as well as the inner city.
Within the imperial city, ranks were extremely stringent. The people of the four cities were prohibited from entering the inner city without getting permission.
Those who disobey were killed without amnesty.
And the prime requirement for entering the inner city was to possess the identity of a permanent residence, which was also the permanent token!
50 million divine essence stones made the vast majority of the people shrink back.
North, south, east, west, four cities, could be said to be the commoner areas, dragons and carps mingled together.
The region that Ye Yuan was at right now was the south city.
The south city was ruled by six major factions, the Dongfang Family, Zhao Family, Sun Family, three great families, as well as the Dragon Slaying Gang, Silverfeather Gang, as well as the Sun Moon Gang, three great gangs.
The three great families monopolized the south city’s economic lifeblood, while the three great gangs dominated the market.
The three people chatted as they walked and already passed through quite a few streets.
The streets bustled with heavy traffic; very flourishing.
Whoosh!
The three people were currently walking when a large group of people rushed out all of a sudden, surrounding the three people.
When the neighbors saw this scene, quite a few people all gathered together, seemingly already accustomed to it.
“The Dragon Slaying Gang is bullying newcomers again. This kid is also unlucky, why did he find Ah Four?”
“This kid has refined features and bright eyes, looks like a young master. One look and it’s clear that he hasn’t seen much of life. No wonder he would fall for it.”
“Hope that this kid is more sensible, saves himself a bout of beating too.”
…
There was a scar on the face of the person in front, looking very ferocious.
He sized Ye Yuan up and down, just like a greedy wild wolf.
“Ah Four, this fat sheep that you brought this time looks pretty good!” said the scar-faced man with a smile.
Ah Four went up to greet subserviently and said smilingly with an arched waist, “Hall Master Hu, it’s more than pretty good! This kid spent a million divine essence stones without even furrowing a brow.”
The scar-faced man’s brows raised up and he said delightedly, “Yo, it’s really a big fish! Ah Four, you did a good job this time. Later, you’ll get 5000!”
The moment Ah Four heard, he was overjoyed and hurriedly said, “Many thanks, Hall Master Hu! Many thanks, Hall Master Hu!”
Ye Yuan looked at this scene rather interestedly and said coolly, “So … you’re not planning on bringing me to the Myriad Treasure Tower, are you?”
The moment the scar-faced man heard this, he laughed loudly and said, “Myriad Treasure Tower? Hahaha … we are. Leave behind all the divine essence stones on your body, Grandpa Hu won’t care where you go.”
Ye Yuan said coolly, “If I say no?”
The moment the scar-faced man heard this, he said with a smile that was not a smile, “Every newcomer is very stubborn when they enter the city. But later, they become even more obedient like the dog at my house. Ah Four didn’t tell you how strong this south city’s Dragon Slaying Gang is? And I’m the Dragon Slaying Gang’s Azurewood Hall’s hall master, Hu Azurewood.”
Ye Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly and he said, “Dragon Slaying Gang? Truly a fine name!”
Ye Yuan was born as half of the dragon race. This bunch of guys actually named the gang Dragon Slaying Gang. Wasn’t it coming to slay him?
Hu Azurewood laughed loudly when he heard that and said, “Is that so? I also feel that the name Dragon Slaying Gang is very domineering! Haha, but even if you curry favor, it’s no use too! Hurry up and hand over the divine essence stones on you. Otherwise … your Grandpa Hu will teach you how to behave properly today!”
A cold light appeared in Ye Yuan’s eyes, his figure suddenly disappearing.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
Hu Azurewood had yet to react to what happened and Ye Yuan stood in front of him once more.
His expression turned dark and he pointed at Ye Yuan and said, “Brat, what are you playing at?”
Ye Yuan could not be bothered with him and said to Long Zhan, “Let’s go! Uh, bring him along.”
Long Zhan nodded and directly reached his hand out and grabbed toward Ah Four.
Ah Four was merely Heaven Glimpse Realm cultivation. How was he Long Zhan’s match? Long Zhan knocked him out with one slap, then dragged him away like dragging a dead dog.
“Want to go? Have you asked your Grandpa Hu?”
Hu Azurewood shouted loudly and was about to make a move.
Suddenly, he felt a chill below his crotch.
“Hahahaha!”
The surrounding neighbors all started roaring with laughter.
Turns out that the moment these dozen over people made their move, their pants all fell down.
Now, they only felt a chill at their balls.
“Laughing at what?! Laugh again and we’ll smash your shops!”
Hu Azurewood, a big grown man, was blushing scarlet red at this time.
But his prestige still had an effect. Everyone indeed did not dare to laugh anymore.
It was just that each and every one was stifled until their faces were bright red; very uncomfortable.
He hurriedly picked up his pants and said with a livid look, “This kid’s realm isn’t high, but his strength is actually so strong! If he wanted to kill us just now, we’d all be dead men now!”
Hu Azurewood was a middle-stage Origin Deity expert. The subordinates that he brought even had five or six initial-stage Origin Deity.
This level of strength already could not be ignored in the south city. Who knew that they were brought down by a young man with one sword.
Hu Azurewood did not see clearly how Ye Yuan drew his sword just now at all.
A look of horror appeared in Hu Azurewood’s eyes. He, a middle-stage Origin Deity, actually could not even see how an initial-stage Origin Deity drew his sword. This was too scary!
The sight of a dozen over burly men picking up their pants and running on the streets was very spectacular.
…
Ah Four slowly woke up. Seeing the ferocious Long Zhan with malice written all over his face, he was immediately frightened out of his wits.
“Spare me! Your Excellency, spare me! This lowly one … this lowly one was compelled against his will too!”
Ah Four knelt on the ground and begged with snot and tears running.
“I asked around earlier, the south city doesn’t have a Myriad Treasure Tower at all! The Heavenly Eagle Imperial City’s Myriad Treasure Tower is in the inner city!” Ye Yuan said coolly.
Ah Four trembled all over and said, “I … I have a way of contacting the inner city! I … I’ll definitely help Your Excellency contact the Myriad Treasure Tower!”
Ye Yuan gave him a glance and said with a smile, “Talking with smart people is effort-saving. It’s just too bad that your judgment is too poor.”
Ah Four cried bitterness when he heard that. How could he have thought that a kid who had just entered Origin Deity would actually have such formidable strength?
When Ye Yuan attacked with his sword, he only felt a gust of wind blow past and did not see anything at all.
This kind of speed was simply too terrifying.
Origin Deity Realm powerhouses attacking, Ah Four had naturally seen before quite a few. But he had never seen before such terrifying sword arts.
If he had long known it was like this, lend him a few galls and he would not dare as well!
“Your Excellency … it was all Ah Four who had eyes but couldn’t see! But Your Excellency rest assured, Ah Four have never thought of harming Your Excellency’s life before! Hall Master Hu they all are only seeking wealth and won’t harm lives,” Ah Four said with a trembling voice.
Ye Yuan said coolly, “If you all have killing intent aroused, then it wouldn’t be as simple as pants dropping.”
Ah Four shuddered all over, only then, knowing that he had already made a trip to the gates of hell and back.
Suddenly, Ye Yuan slowly got up and said, “Let’s go.”
Ah Four froze and said, “Go where?”
Ye Yuan said coolly, “Bring me to the Dragon Slaying Gang’s headquarters.”
Chapter 1532. Your Esteemed Gang, Please Change Name |
“Y-Y-Y-Your Excellency, just spare me! When they see that it’s me who brought you over, they will kill me!”
Getting closer and closer to the Dragon Slaying Gang’s headquarters, Ah Four’s legs went soft and could not walk at all.
Long Zhan carried him like carrying a little chick.
Ye Yuan gave him a glance and smiled broadly and said, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you?”
Ah Four’s eyes saw black, and he directly fainted.
In this imperial city, a Heaven Glimpse Realm martial artist like Ah Four was a small character, with only the share of running errands. How could he dare to offend one of the six great factions, the Dragon Slaying Gang?
As one of the six great factions, the Dragon Slaying Gang’s headquarters was very grand.
