Chapter 1794 - 1795: Purple Crystal Imperial City! (Part 1)
On the other side, Ling Feng and Yue HuaQin, using the teleportation array of Yunluo Sacred Land, quickly returned to Tianyun Holy City.
Upon returning to Tianyun Holy City, Ling Feng went directly to the Tianyun Inn to look for that guy, Xiao Zhantian.
The Xiao Family, being one of the five families of Sky Alliance Commerce, naturally holds many privileges. With the connection to Xiao Zhantian, it wouldn’t be difficult to find out about the Blood Shadow Alliance or even the whereabouts of the last Green Emperor Seal.
Approximately seven and a half minutes later, inside Tianyun Inn.
"Huh?"
Xiao Zhantian was pondering matters within the family when suddenly someone pushed the door open, startling him.
"Which eye-opening bastard..."
Before finishing the sentence, as he clearly saw who the visitor was, Xiao Zhantian was overjoyed and swallowed the word "bastard," while forcing a smile, "Brother Ling, I knew you would surely come looking for me!"
With that, he energetically rushed over to give Ling Feng a hug.
Ling Feng sidestepped, and behind him was Yue HuaQin, who furrowed her brows and kicked Xiao Zhantian, sending him flying.
"Wow, Holy Daughter?"
Xiao Zhantian hesitated for a moment, glancing at Ling Feng with surprise, then showcasing a mischievous look, implying: Nice, you managed to bring along the Holy Daughter?
Yue HuaQin gritted her silver teeth, not bothering with Xiao Zhantian’s sleazy look. If Ling Feng wasn’t here for business, Yue HuaQin wouldn’t want to associate with this playboy at all.
"Hehe, apologies, Holy Daughter. I got a bit excited seeing Ling Feng."
Xiao Zhantian rubbed his bruised rear, unable to express the anger boiling inside him in front of Yunluo Sacred Land’s Holy Daughter, simply casting a reproachful look at Ling Feng, somewhat blaming him for darting aside suddenly.
Ling Feng pursed his lips; he wasn’t in the habit of embracing men.
"Brother Xiao, I’ve come to find you this time because I want to travel together to Purple Crystal Imperial City, and I might ask for something later." Ling Feng was straightforward, getting directly to the point.
"Hehe, when Xiao Zhantian goes out, the most important thing is loyalty!"
Xiao Zhantian pounded his chest and laughed heartily, "Purple Crystal Imperial City is the territory of my Xiao Family, whatever you need there, I’ve got you covered!"
Ling Feng glanced at Xiao Zhantian with a hint of curiosity; given this guy’s opportunistic nature, his agreement seemed a bit too smooth.
There’s something unusual here.
However, since Ling Feng intended to visit Purple Crystal Imperial City anyway, he had plenty of time to uncover what scheme Xiao Zhantian might be concocting.
"Then I must thank Brother Xiao first."
Ling Feng smiled faintly; given his ability, he wasn’t concerned about Xiao Zhantian’s potential schemes.
After a while, Ling Feng asked, "When shall we depart?"
"No rush."
Xiao Zhantian spoke leisurely, "Although the teleportation array of Tianyun Holy City belongs to Yunluo Sacred Land, with enough elemental crystals, outsiders can also use them. Sky Alliance Commerce spans the entire Eastern Spirit Domain, and thus the teleportation arrays connect Tianyun Holy City as well. By using the teleportation array at Tianyun Prefecture, we can reach a southwestern branch of the Heavenly Alliance, and from there, directly teleport to Purple Crystal Imperial City."
"That is convenient."
Ling Feng nodded, noting that unlike sect forces, the teleportation arrays of commerce can interconnect, whereas constructing a teleportation array into the territory of another Sacred Land is tantamount to provocation.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with Xiao Zhantian, Ling Feng and Yue HuaQin rented two top-tier rooms at Tianyun Inn and temporarily settled in.
Inside Ling Feng’s room.
Yue HuaQin tilted her head slightly and directed her gaze at Ling Feng, saying cautiously, "Junior Brother Ling, this Xiao Zhantian is merely a disciple of a branch of the Xiao Family, and it seems his branch isn’t very influential; he might not be able to help you with much."
"Is that so?"
Ling Feng smiled faintly, "Precisely because of that, he needs my help, so he will strive to assist me. If it were someone else, do you think they’d disclose such confidential matters to me?"
"This..."
Yue HuaQin’s beautiful eyes flashed slightly, then she nodded, impressed by Ling Feng’s meticulous thoughts.
As Ling Feng stated, concerning the Blood Shadow Alliance information, even the higher-ups at East Spirit Immortal Pond found it difficult to extract precise information from Sky Alliance.
Only in such mutually beneficial situations would there be a slim chance.
Xiao Zhantian is that slim chance.
"Xiao Zhantian may appear as a playboy, but perhaps he’s merely feigning madness; if given the chance, he might achieve great things. I have a feeling he’s the only one who can help me."
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow and smiled, glancing at Yue HuaQin, before continuing, "Senior Sister Yue, it’s late, you..."
"Oh oh..." Yue HuaQin’s face turned slightly red, she quickly stood up to leave the room, "Junior Brother Ling, good... good night..."
After speaking, Yue HuaQin hurriedly left.
A night of tranquil cultivation.
Early the next day, Ling Feng set off with Xiao Zhantian and Yue HuaQin on their journey to Purple Crystal Imperial City.
...
Purple Crystal Imperial City is the headquarters of Sky Alliance Commerce, an immensely majestic city with towering walls, profoundly impressive. The internal area is vast, even comparable to the scale of East Spirit Immortal Pond.
Sky Alliance’s industry spans the entire Eastern Spirit Domain, so it’s conceivable how tremendous their wealth is.
Naturally, all this prosperity is only possible with the tacit approval of the Three Great Sacred Lands.
"We’ve finally arrived!"
As Xiao Zhantian stretched lazily coming out of the teleportation array, the eastern sky was just turning bright, the rays of the morning sun carrying a hint of warmth fell upon Ling Feng and his companions.
"Master is back again!"
Xiao Zhantian clenched his fist, a fleeting glint of hatred flashed in his eyes.
But that glimpse of hatred was caught by Ling Feng; although Xiao Zhantian didn’t reveal much during this journey, Ling Feng could broadly guess the situation.
Xiao Zhantian might not have fared as well in Purple Crystal Imperial City as he claimed.
Nonetheless, Ling Feng was indifferent to these matters; he precisely needed a truly meaningful ally.
Xiao Zhantian’s need for Ling Feng was beneficial for him.
Soon after, under Xiao Zhantian’s arrangement, Ling Feng and Yue HuaQin checked into an extraordinarily luxurious inn in Purple Crystal Imperial City, named Shengtian Inn.
The inn naturally belongs to Sky Alliance.
Everything within Purple Crystal Imperial City is owned by the Heavenly Alliance.
Within Purple Crystal Imperial City, a strong and fierce aura permeates everywhere, even a Great Emperor in the early stage of the Heavenly Destiny Realm is not uncommon.
For many excellent sect disciples looking to venture out, Purple Crystal Imperial City is definitely a prime destination; after all, Sky Alliance possesses a plethora of cultivation materials, comparable to the Holy Land’s Treasure Vault, and with elemental crystals, everything can be acquired!
