Kunzuo Xinghe Muasin?
Wasn’t this the place where he had searched for Ruo Lan in the first place? He had wanted to continue back to Muia Star after finding the secret of the Golden Origin. It just didn’t occur to him that because of his cultivation in that hidden star field, the Xuanhuang leaked out and he was almost taken out by Over Three Qian. Then he had fled all the way to the Desolate Abandoned Land and entered the Eternal Night Domain.
After learning that the Hall of Shadows had appeared in Muia Star, Ning Cheng made a split-second decision and decided to go to the Hall of Shadows. Since a secret realm had appeared in Muia Star, there might be someone he was familiar with in the past. If there were cultivators from the Yixing Continent who had gone to the Phantom Shadow Sanctuary, he could just ask about Ruo Lan’s news.
……
The speed of the Starry Sky Wheel was far faster than ordinary flying magic treasures. Only after the Starry Sky Wheel entered the Kun Zhuo Star River did Ning Cheng deeply appreciate the impact of the Phantom Shadow Holy Temple. Almost all of the flying magic treasures along the way were focused on heading to one place, which was the Muia Star of the Kun Zhuo Star River.
Just as Ning Cheng had said, the Muia Star was now really busy. The nearest Over-snow City to the Phantom Shadow Sanctuary had long been overcrowded at this time. The originally desolate Over-Snow City was now filled with all sorts of beautiful tall buildings. The Star Chamber of Commerce from all over the world was like a cat that had smelled something fishy and had flocked to this place.
The price of land in Over-Snow City had skyrocketed in a single day, and even a shop in Zuotian Star City in the Great Central Sky was not as expensive as the price in Over-Snow City.
Not a single person who had taken up land here earlier and set up various commercial buildings had not made a fortune. Of course, those were the ones who had the ability to occupy the place. Those who were not capable, even if you occupied this place, you would still be robbed or even exterminated.
……
“There are so many people.” Chasing Ox, who was following behind Ning Cheng, however, became excited, what this fellow liked most was the hustle and bustle.
Chasing Ox was right, there were really a lot of people here. Before Ning Cheng and Chasing Ox had even entered the Snow Covered City, outside the Snow Covered City, it was already overcrowded. A number of temporary markets and trading venues stood outside the Over-Snow City. There were cultivators everywhere, and heads were swarming everywhere.
When he came to this place, Ning Cheng did not see any Phantom Shadow Holy Hall, but saw countless people. This reminded him of the time when he was once on Earth, where every time there was a long holiday, the major attractions were crowded with people.
“Master, there are too many people outside this Over Snow City, we might as well go to the city.” Chasing Ox whispered at the side.
Ning Cheng knew what Chasing Ox meant, there were already so many people outside the Snow Covered City, entering the city, there would definitely be even more people. However, this animal, Chasing Ox, was just not afraid of crowds, and what it meant by saying this was to go and squeeze inside the crowd.
In fact, Ning Cheng also intended to go inside the Snow Covered City to have a look. In order to go to the Phantom Shadow Hall, one had to go to the eastern side of Over Snow City. If one entered the Over-Snow City from the west and went through it, and then came out from the east, one could just reach the Hall of Ghostly Shadows.
“You are bringing your beast pet into the city for a total of 20,000 green coins for the two of you.” The guard at the entrance of the city stopped Ning Cheng.
Twenty thousand green coins was not a small amount for an ordinary cultivator, but Ning Cheng would not care at all, he casually rewarded others with ten Eternal Hope Pills, so how could he care about twenty thousand green coins. He casually grabbed out a thousand purple coins and stuffed them into the guard’s hand, saying casually, “The extra is a tip.”
For cultivators at Ning Cheng’s level, all they used were Yongwang Dan and Heng Yuan Dan, or even Starry Sky Yuan Qi Veins. Star coins were really dispensable things to them, even if they were Star Yuan Stones, they were still more useful to him than star coins.
Only when Ning Cheng and Chasing Ox walked away did this guard react to the fact that he had made a fortune, and hurriedly bowed behind him and thanked him, “Many thanks for the reward, senior.”
Star coins were of little use to Ning Cheng, but to an ordinary cultivator, this was a cultivation resource. With such things, they could buy the pills and magic treasures they wanted anywhere they wanted ……
Chasing Ox really wasn’t wrong, although the inside of Over Snow City was also swarming with people, compared to the outside, it rather didn’t seem that crowded.
Ning Cheng knew what the reason for this was, it was because the 20,000 green coins to enter the Over Snow City was too high for ordinary cultivators.
Naturally, Ning Cheng would not buy any magic treasures or pills in such a small place, he went all the way through the Over Snow City while his divine sense swept all the way through. Even some of the shielding prohibitions were directly broken through by Ning Cheng’s divine sense. Luckily, Ning Cheng was only looking for someone, and after his divine sense penetrated into the prohibitions, he did not destroy them, and no one dared to come and say anything more for a while. How could a cultivator who could use his divine sense to break through the shielding prohibitions be simple?
After most of the day had passed, Ning Cheng stood at the head of the bridge connecting the East and West Cities of Over Snow City, but he did not find a single acquaintance.
The words East Gate Bridge were imposing, and this bridge was even more imposing, so it was obvious that this East Gate Bridge had not been rebuilt for long. After walking across the East Gate Bridge, all that meets the eye are new luxury commercial buildings and various pavilions. From the layout of the buildings, it is clear that this area of luxurious commercial buildings and cave pavilions are all owned by one owner.
“Master, should we go in and take a look, the merchant buildings here are just too beautiful.” Chasing Ox had followed Ning Cheng for most of the day and had not gone up to a single restaurant, and had long been envious in his heart.
Ning Cheng did not have the heart to go to a restaurant at all and said casually, “After we leave the Eastern City, take a look around the Phantom Shadow Sanctuary, if we don’t have any acquaintances, we will go back to the Middle Heaven Star Continent.”
Chasing Ox dropped his head, not daring to say anything else as he followed Ning Cheng across the East Gate Bridge.
Ning Cheng had just walked across the East Gate Bridge when a human figure flew out from one of the pavilions at the end of the bridge, this figure flew directly towards Ning Cheng’s side and before it could land on the ground, several mouthfuls of blood sprayed out in the air. Obviously, this figure had been blasted out.
Ning Cheng did not even extend his hand as his domain stopped the figure.
The figure landed on the ground and took a few steps backwards before standing still, it was a middle-aged man who looked somewhat vicissitudes, with an Immortality Realm cultivation. If it wasn’t for Ning Cheng’s domain, he was afraid that he would have broken at least a few bones.
This man didn’t even seem to know that someone had helped him, and after landing on the ground, he once again rushed towards the pavilion with red eyes.
Ning Cheng shook his head, this guy was simply unafraid of life and death. This was obviously being beaten to death, and after being saved by him, he was still charging upwards.
In fact, without waiting for this man to rush up, someone had already come out of the building pavilion.
Ning Cheng ignored it, this kind of thing happened every day in various places, it was not surprising at all. He couldn’t manage it, and he didn’t know who was right and who was wrong.
“Luyu, Luyu ……” The man simply didn’t care about the two cultivators rushing towards him, calling frantically for Luyu while rushing towards this luxurious pavilion.
Ning Cheng stopped, he suddenly felt that the name Luyu was somewhat familiar. Soon he remembered who Luyu was, it was Xuan Yu’s sister.
Xuan Yu’s sister, Luyu, had been spotted by the Liran King of the Liran Star River, only that Luyu had someone she loved and she and her beloved had escaped from the Liran Star River. As a result, the Liran King took his anger out on Luyu’s family. Luckily, Spingyu took her sister’s place and married the Liran King, calming his anger.
Later, after the death of all of Luyu’s relatives, Luyu eloped with his best friend Jing Wuming midway to the Manlun Starlands. At that time, Jing Wuming said that he had gone to the Time Wasteland, but in fact Ning Cheng had not seen him in the Time Wasteland and did not know whether he had gone there or not.
He didn’t know if the man in front of him called Lu Yu was Xuan Yu’s sister, if so, for Jing Wuming’s sake, he would still help out.
If truth be told, Ning Cheng did not have any good feelings towards Xuan Yu’s sister, Luyu. This woman had even disregarded her family in order to stick with her man. One could imagine that if she didn’t have a sister at home, her family would have been unlucky in front of the Liran King.
“Go over and take a look.” Ning Cheng walked over in the first place.
Chasing Ox was the only guy who was afraid of the world, and seeing that his lordship was interested in checking out this tavern, he hurriedly walked ahead to lead the way.
“The tavern is busy right now, come back later.” The fellow stopped Chasing Ox, but his words should have been addressed to Ning Cheng who was behind Chasing Ox.
Chasing Ox opened his big mouth and gave a sneeze, “My master is looking up to you by coming up to your restaurant, hurry up and open the door to welcome my master upstairs, then bring out the best wine for my master. The second best wine for your Master Niu.”
The fellow was frozen by Chasing Ox’s words, a talking demonic beast was in fact already surprising, but what was even more outrageous was that this demonic pet dared to say such things in the Ji family’s restaurant, was this a death wish?
It was the two cultivators who restrained the man rushing towards the tavern who were both stunned by Chasing Ox’s big words. They were both of the same mind, where did the arrogant and stupid bull come from?
Ning Cheng slapped a slap on Chasing Ox’s head, “Let aside, don’t speak if you can’t speak. In future, don’t speak without a chin and open your mouth. Like you, how many people do you have to offend in a day?”
“Master, I have a chin.” Chasing Ox muttered with his head bowed and didn’t dare to continue with his nonsense.
“What a big face, what a big tongue. I’d like to see what kind of person wants my restaurant to open the middle door wide and bring out the best wine to welcome you?” A disdainful voice came out, followed by a brocade clad male cultivator.
Ning Cheng’s divine sense swept into the pavilion, and the scenic decorations inside were even more luxurious and opulent than the outside. His divine sense did not hesitate to break through the first floor’s prohibitions, and in one of the rooms on the first floor, he saw a female cultivator covered in blood and unkempt clothes.
As soon as Ning Cheng took a look at this female cultivator, he knew that she was Luyu, who looked eight percent similar to Xuan Yu.
After knowing that it was indeed Luyu who was here, Ning Cheng ignored the brocade clothed male cultivator and instead walked up to the man who had been restrained and asked, “What is your name?”
The man had indignation all over his face and eyes, but unfortunately he was stopped and could not resist at all. Now that Ning Cheng asked, he immediately said, “My name is Dong Gravel.”
Then he froze, “I thought I couldn’t speak, how come I can suddenly speak again?
“Your daoist partner’s name is Luyu, right, you are wanted by the Leland King and escaped from the Leland Star River.” Ning Cheng said in a flat tone.
Dong Gravel was even more dumbfounded, he and Luyu had been hiding in this inconspicuous place for many years, how did this cultivator in front of him know?
