The next day, at dawn, Yang Kai, who was meditating, felt some movements from the room next door. Β Releasing his Divine Sense, he found that Cang Yan, Li Wan, and Fei Jian had quietly left, obviously heading towards Ascending Heaven Cliff to investigate the situation over there.
Fei Yu, on the other hand, after a night of excessive drinking, didnβt wake up at all and was currently lying on her bed in a slovenly manner, her robes only half covering her pure white thighs, causing Yang Kaiβs vision to spin when he glanced over at her.
Shaking his head helplessly, Yang Kai silently crept over and covered her with the beddings in an attempt to maintain some semblance of modesty for his Martial Aunt.
It was not until noon that Fei Yu lazily got up, stretched, and walked over to the window, standing there quietly for a while.
βHey, little Martial Nephew, letβs go out and have a look at the city,β Fei Yu suddenly suggested.
βBut Cang Yan Martial Uncle said for us to wait here until they came back to the inn,β Yang Kai wrinkled his brow.
βRelax, in Floating Clouds City, there generally wonβt be any danger, and even if a fight does break out, the City Lordβs Mansionβs people will handle it,β Fei Yu walked over and sat her enchanting bottom down next to Yang Kai leisurely, exhaling a fragrant breath as she continued to persuade him, βCome on, letβs go. Itβs so rare we get a chance to come here, thereβs no point if we just stay here in this stuffy room. Β Cang Yan and them may not be back for a few days, are we supposed to just sit here and wait the whole time?β
As she said so, Fei Yu unscrupulously wrapped her arms around Yang Kaiβs, pressing her amazingly soft and elastic capital against his shoulder.
Yang Kaiβs face went black, βFine fine, letβs go, better than staying here and letting you take advantage of me.β
βLittle bastard!β Fei Yu grit her teeth angrily.
The two took a moment to clean up before quickly leaving the inn and walking out onto the busy street.
Even if Fei Yu didnβt propose so, Yang Kai had planned to go out.
Old Man Du had said that because the Thousand Year Demon Flower was about to bloom, there would be a lot of excellent Alchemists and powerful cultivators from around the world gathering here. Β Where there were many people, there were many resources.
A variety of rare herbs, spirit grasses, and spirit medicines which were usually difficult to find would appear here.
Yang Kai needed to collect some of these herbs!
Although he was currently being provided herbs by Soaring Heaven Sect in order to practice Alchemy, he still needed to search for others, firstly for his own cultivation, and secondly for the Ancient Demon Clan.
When he left Demon supreme-ruler Citadel, Li Rong gave him a list of materials needed in order to refine the Saint Pill they required. Β After such a long time, Yang Kai had almost completely collected these herbs, but there were still some he had yet to find.
This timeβs trip to Floating Clouds City was a rare opportunity.
Inside Floating Clouds City, there were many shops and cultivators, people flowed through the streets like a great river.
Fei Yu held Yang Kaiβs arm intimately as they strolled through the streets, their handsome man and beautiful woman combination drawing many peopleβs attention.
βMartial Aunt, isnβt this a bit inappropriate?β Yang Kai felt more than a little uncomfortable. Β As they walked, he would occasional have some excessive physical contact, causing him some discomfort.
βHow is it inappropriate? Β Iβm responsible for protecting you; little bastard, youβre not going to tell me youβre reacting to your Martial Aunt, are you?β Β Fei Yu glanced at him and smiles sweetly.
Yang Kai shrugged his shoulders, βIβm a young man, and this is just a normal phenomenon.β
βWell, donβt stress yourself out over minor matters,β Fei Yu chuckled, seemingly enjoying herself greatly as she walked along and whispered quietly to Yang Kai.
Along the way, under her guidance, Yang Kai was able to accurately distinguish who belonged to the Demon Race and who was from the Monster Race.
In Tong Xuan Realm, the Human, Demon, and Monster Races dominated over all other races, with Humans being the most numerous, followed by the Demon Race, while the Monster Race had the least members.
The root cause of the scarcity of the Monster Race was the Beast Transformation Pond.
The Beast Transformation Pond was the core foundation of the Monster Race, when a Monster Beast reached a certain level of strength, they could assume human form with the assistance of the Beast Transformation Pond and obtain wisdom and sentience not inferior to a Human Race powerhouse.
It can be said that every Monster Race with a human form was a true master, this was very different from the other two races.
However, this was not the whole story. Β There were some formidable members of the Monster Races that innately possessed the ability to assume human form from birth, and some among the Monster Races with outstanding aptitude that could achieve human form without the assistance of the Beast Transformation Pond.
These were the true elites of the Monster Race, the apex powerhouses.
Yang Kai gained a great deal of understanding and insight through Fei Yuβs explanations.
Inside a shop owned and operated by Floating Clouds Cityβs Alchemist Guild, Yang Kai walked a few laps before wearing a helpless look.
He hadnβt found any of the herbs he was looking for.
βLittle brother, Iβve seen you come around several times but never buy anything, could it be that the things in my shop arenβt to your liking?β The shopkeeper couldnβt help but ask.
Yang Kai shook his head, βThese are all good things, but theyβre not what Iβm currently looking for.β
βIs little brother an Alchemist?β
Yang Kai nodded lightly and showed his Alchemist token. Β The shopkeeper took the token and investigated it for a moment before his expression became even friendlier, βI donβt know what this little brother is searching for, so if it is convenient, can you tell me? Β I can help keep an eye out for little brother that way.β
Nodding, Yang Kai casually reported the names of the herbs he was looking for.
The shopkeeperβs face became awkward and nodded, βThe medicinal herbs little brother is searching for only grow in very specific environments and are as such, precious and scarce. Β Such things arenβt likely to appear in this store. If you want to obtain them, it wonβt be easy. Little brother may wish to go to the Trading District to have a look, if youβre lucky, you might have some gains.β
βTrading District?β Yang Kaiβs expression changed.
βGood, for this grand occasion, the City Lord and two Vice City Lords specially designated an area of the city where Alchemists from all over the world can exchange goods. Β There are many excellent Alchemists here who have collected rare and precious herbs they donβt have a use for and are willing to exchange for things they do need, little brother can go there and try your luck.β
βWhere is the Trading District?β
The shopkeeper warm heartedly pointed Yang Kai in the right direction. Β Yang Kai nodded slightly and offered his thanks before he and Fei Yu left for the indicated district.
After half an hour, Yang Kai looked at an open square where a lively scene was taking place and couldnβt help showing a light smile.
βDoes this place remind you of something?β Β Fei Yu couldnβt help asking, seeing Yang Kai laugh so strangely.
βEn, some past events in my Sect,β Yang Kai replied casually.
The scene in front of him, with countless people setting up stalls and bargaining back and forth, reminded him of when he was just young, weak boy visiting the Black Wind Trade Market set up by High Heaven Pavilion, Storm House, and Blood Battle Gang.
This kind of buying and selling scene gave him the illusion he had gone back to those simpler times.
Of course, this Trading District was not surrounded by a forest or manned by Elite Disciples of the Three Sects.
After sweeping his eyes around, Yang Kai was shocked to discover that many of the stall owners here were actually Alchemist. Β They had hung their Alchemist tokens on their chests to reveal their identities.
There were also some ordinary cultivators who had obviously obtained good herbs when they were out adventuring who were waiting behind their booths for prospective buyers.
There were things to buy and things to sell, the whole scene was incredibly lively.
There were even people who hung signs asking for Alchemists to help them refine pills.
Everything here was basically related to herbs and pill, and a thick medicinal fragrance lingered in the air.
Yang Kai picked up his feet and began walking around, wandering back and forth between the various stalls.
It was a rewarding experience.
Many herbs that were all but impossible to find actually appeared here.
Most sellers also didnβt have any special requests for payment and most things could be bought with sufficient Crystal Stones.
Fortunately, Yang Kai had many Crystal Stones on him. Β Although the vast majority of his Crystal Stones had been left to the Ancient Demon Clan, what he kept on him was still enough for him to be considered wealthy.
Bargaining back and forth with these sellers, Yang Kai had soon acquired a few herbs.
During this process, Fei Yu played a big role. Β Yang Kai had never expected that this Martial Aunt of his would possess such phenomenal skill in this area, using her sharp wits and tongue, along with her own great beauty to mercilessly butcher these sellers, often allowing her to acquire these precious herbs at much lower prices than they were initially being sold for.
After half a day, Yang Kai had harvested quite a few precious herbs, and even some he required for the Ancient Demon Clanβs Saint Pill.
He was very satisfied.
βI helped you save a lot of Crystal Stones today, so how do you plan on thanking me?β Fei Yu held Yang Kaiβs arm a little tighter as she asked with a sweet smile.
βBuy whatever drink you want.β
Fei Yuβs beautiful eyes flashed as she joyfully shouted, βLittle Martial Nephew, you really know how to make your Martial Aunt happy!β
βBut! Β Youβre not allowed to get drunk! Β Otherwise, when Cang Yan and them return, theyβll complain.β
βI know,β Fei Yu curled her lips faintly.
As they were speaking thought, there was a sudden burst of excited voices not far from them, as if they crowd had discovered something incredible.
In the next moment, Yang Kai clearly smelt a faint fragrance fill the air. Β As soon as this fragrance entered his nose, he felt a cool, refreshing sensation all the way to his core!
Yang Kai and Fei Yuβs eyes simultaneously lit up as they exchange a quick glance. Β They knew that a real treasure had appeared.
Turning their eyes towards the place where the ruckus originated from, Yang Kai found that a noisy three layer crowd had already formed. Β Fortunately, through the gaps in the crowd, Yang Kai could still see a faint multi-coloured light bloom.
βLetβs go see,β Fei Yu said, pulling Yang Kaiβs arm as she walked over to the crowd.
However, even after quite some effort, the two of them couldnβt squeeze their way through the crowd and instead could only listen to the other buyers calling out, βBrother, what are you selling this thing for?β
βTen Saint Pills!β A slightly aged voice answered.
Immediately after these words were said, the crowd of people fell silent.
βBrother, isnβt that a too expensive? Β Saint Pills canβt be refined casually. In this world, there are only a handful of Alchemists capable of refining Saint Pills. Β You all of a sudden asking for ten, donβt you think thatβs a bit outrageous?β
βThatβs right, canβt you trade this thing for other herbs or Crystal Stones?β
βHow about exchanging it for an artifact? Β I have a few Spirit Grade Top-Rank artifacts here you can choose from!β
βTen Saint Pills, I only need ten Saint Pills. If you donβt have any Saint Pills, please leave.β
βBrother, canβt you stretch the rules a bit, donβt be so unreasonable.β
βThis guy is simply too arrogant! Β Can this thing possibly be worth ten Saint Pills? Β Bullshit! I think this guy must have gone crazy from poverty.β
βBig brother, if you give this thing to me, I can be yours from now on, how about it?β A pretty voice called out.
βYou immoral woman, donβt you have any sense of shame?β Someone immediately called out in disdain.
βDepending on your looks, you dare try to pull off such a scheme? Β You really donβt have any self-awareness.β
βItβs none of your damn business!β
The voices grew louder and the scene quickly became messier and messier.
