Qi Tian and his group returned safely to the plaza in front of Wanjie Commerce. After the cultivators of Wanjie Commerce disembarked, they were promptly escorted away. The rest of the hired cultivators lined up to go forward to register in turn, to confirm their share of the profits and to retrieve the items they had previously deposited with Wanjie Commerce.

Qi Tian’s turn to queue was nearer the end. After waiting for over an hour, it was finally his turn. He took out the Storage Bag hung at his waist and then took out a piece of paper written by Wan Xiaolan, which outlined the promises she had made to him.

The steward who received him looked at the content on the paper in surprise and asked Qi Tian to wait for a moment. Then, he sent out a Message Paper Crane. Soon after, Wan Xiaolan came striding over. She greeted the steward who was attending to Qi Tian and confirmed the contents on the paper. “During our time in the secret realm, without Qi Tian’s help, we might not have been able to open the Protective Great Array’s protective boundary. Wanjie Commerce is clear about rewards and punishments. As the person in charge of this operation, I think it’s necessary to properly reward those who have made significant contributions, like him.”

The steward nodded. He first checked the status of the Storage Bag which Qi Tian had handed over. The number of spirit stones inside wasn’t too numerous, but it wasn’t few either. Compared to the other Storage Bags he had inspected, Qi Tian’s collection was somewhat average. Allowing Qi Tian to keep all the spirit stones without taking any cut didn’t result in much of a loss for Wanjie Commerce. It could even win people’s hearts so why should he play the villain?

After returning the Storage Bag that Qi Tian had previously deposited, the steward waited for Qi Tian to sort out his items again. Then, Qi Tian was allowed to leave without any difficulties. Wanjie Commerce would not risk its reputation over a few tens of thousands of Low Grade spirit stones.

Qi Tian walked up to Wan Xiaolan and thanked her, “Thank you, Elder Wan.”

Wan Xiaolan chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, Qi Tian. Wanjie Commerce keeps its word. We promised you a reward, and we will definitely give it adequately. We will not let any cultivator, including you, who has provided meritorious service to Wanjie Commerce, down. Let’s go. Among the three rewards I promised you, one has been fulfilled. Let’s fulfill the remaining two.”

While walking with Qi Tian, Wan Xiaolan handed him a small booklet and said, “You wanted the coordinates of some low-level minor worlds, right? Here it is, a total of one hundred. Each one clearly marks their specific coordinates. Some even have instructions on how to reach them. Take a look, are you satisfied?”

Qi Tian quickly took the booklet and flipped through it casually. As Wan Xiaolan had said, there were indeed the coordinates of one hundred minor worlds. Relying on these coordinates, he could easily reach these minor worlds by going to the Teleportation Plaza of Wanjie City and using the Teleportation Array there. However, at this moment, it was hard for Qi Tian to determine from the booklet whether Great Zhao was among these minor worlds, or even if Great Zhao was indeed a low-level minor world. That would require some time to study in detail.

When Qi Tian had put away the booklet, Wan Xiaolan led him into Wanjie Commerce. Wanjie Commerce sold all kinds of items related to cultivators. Naturally, this included cave dwellings, which served as living accommodations.

It was not easy to own a personal cave dwelling in Wanjie City. First of all, you had to be a native of Wanjie City, or reach a certain level of cultivation. Otherwise, it was absolutely impossible to own a cave dwelling in Wanjie City. Secondly, for natives, it was easier. But for outsiders like Qi Tian, there were only two methods to own a personal cave dwelling in Wanjie Commerce. One was to have someone vouch for you; the other was to have at least the cultivation level of Gold Core First Level.

Now, the only way for Qi Tian to buy a cave dwelling at Wanjie Commerce was to find someone to vouch for him.

Wan Xiaolan led Qi Tian to the place in Wanjie Commerce that specialized in the sale of cave dwellings, and briefly explained Qi Tian’s situation and that she was willing to vouch for him.

Even though Wanjie Commerce had eminent figures like Nascent Soul Ancestor, someone like Wan Xiaolan, a Gold Core First Level cultivator and a figure in charge, still commanded considerable respect in Wanjie Commerce.

The cultivator in charge of receiving Qi Tian promptly took out a booklet and started looking for a suitable cave dwelling for Qi Tian.

These cave dwellings included not only actual caves but also pavilions, terraces, and buildings, each with a hefty price tag. The cheapest one was priced at more than a million low-grade spirit stones.

Qi Tian could certainly afford such sums. Even the most expensive courtyard listed in the booklet, Qi Tian could afford it. But the problem was, did he need such a huge cave dwelling?

On one hand, Qi Tian didn’t really need it. On the other hand, the price of the courtyard was so high. Unless he used the spirit stones from the Heavenly Dao Engine’s supply chamber, with just the spirit stones in his storage bag, it was definitely not enough, and the deficiency was significant. If he dared to use extra spirit stones, wouldn’t it tell Wanjie Commerce that he got a massive haul from the secret realm? If that’s the case, he would be robbed for sure.

Furthermore, Qi Tian did not intend to buy a cave dwelling from Wanjie Commerce. The cave dwellings here were all selected by Wanjie Commerce. Who knows if they have tampered with these cave dwellings? If he happened to acquire a cave dwelling that Wanjie Commerce had set up, wouldn’t all his actions be under their surveillance? Then, he would have no secrets at all.

Qi Tian pushed the booklet aside and said to Wan Xiaolan, “Elder, I’ve looked through the booklet just now. They are indeed excellent, but there really isn’t a single one that I can afford. This time in the secret realm, although I mined some spirit stones and was recognized by you, which allowed me not to share the profits, but if I have to take out all the spirit stones to buy a house, I won’t be able to get through the latter part of my life. I need to spend sparingly. Could you write me a letter of guarantee? I’ll look around with the letter and see if there is a cave dwelling suitable for me.”

Wan Xiaolan nodded. She didn’t insist on forcing Qi Tian to buy a cave dwelling in Wanjie Commerce, nor did she think that Qi Tian had such a high value. She said, “You have to think carefully. The cave dwellings in Wanjie Commerce are all thoroughly vetted. They will definitely not shoddily sell you substandard goods. With my face value, there might even be some discount. If you go outside, you won’t have these two advantages.”

“Thank you for your kindness, Elder. I still think I should take a look outside first. Maybe I can find a cave dwelling with a high cost-performance ratio. If I can’t find one, I will come back here again to buy. It won’t be too late.”

Wan Xiaolan didn’t persist further. She had spoken a lot and done enough. So she quickly wrote Qi Tian a letter of guarantee. It not only had her autograph but also her fingerprint and the faint aura of a Gold Core cultivator. All of this was to help Qi Tian settle down smoothly in Wanjie City and was also a security feature for the letter of guarantee. After all, forgery, even in the Cultivation World, was not uncommon. With this strand of aura unique to Wan Xiaolan, there was no need to worry about someone daring to forge the letter of guarantee.

After receiving the letter of guarantee, Qi Tian gratefully left Wanjie Commerce, then set his direction and left.

Qi Tian was riding on Hu Niu’s back. In the secret realm, Qi Tian spent most of his time keeping Hu Niu in the Heavenly Dao Engine’s supply chamber. But occasionally, he would let her out for some fresh air. When they came out of the mine in the secret realm, Qi Tian let her out, and from then on, until now, Hu Niu had been by his side.

With the passage of time, Hu Niu ran more and more steadily. When Qi Tian was riding on her back, he didn’t feel any bumps at all.
