184: Chapter 184 Buying South Mountain Mansion 184: Chapter 184 Buying South Mountain Mansion After leaving the Broken Blade Square, Huang Xiaolong and his companions Zhao Shu, Yu Ming, and Fei Hou headed towards the housing transaction market.
If they didn’t resolve their accommodation issue promptly, the four of them might have to spend another night on the streets.
It would be quite the joke if the victor of the grand Imperial City battle had to sleep on the streets.
A short while later, the group reached the area of the housing transaction market.
Passing by a Chamber of Commerce named Xintian, Huang Xiaolong stopped and, together with Zhao Shu and the others, entered.
There are three major Chambers of Commerce in the Broken Blade Empire.
One is the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce owned by the Guo Family which has marital ties with the Huang Family, another is the Yongchang Commerce owned by Xie Puti of the Xie Family, and the last one was this Xintian Commerce.
No sooner had Huang Xiaolong and his group stepped inside than exclamations filled the hall: “Huang Xiaolong!”
Turning to look, Huang Xiaolong saw a middle-aged man dressed in the Chamber of Commerce’s deacon robe watching him with surprise and delight.
The middle-aged man stepped forward, reached Huang Xiaolong, and said excitedly with a laugh, “It really is Young Master Huang, such an esteemed guest, truly a rare visitor!
Please, come in!
I’ve just come back from the Broken Blade Square, and I thought I had seen someone else!”
After the battle in the Imperial City, naturally, many people in the Broken Blade Imperial City now recognized Huang Xiaolong.
And so, under the astonished gaze of the people in the outer hall, the middle-aged man, with extreme enthusiasm and respect, led Huang Xiaolong and his party into the inner hall.
After getting introduced, it turned out the middle-aged man’s name was Zhou Hua, and he was the deacon of this branch of Xintian Commerce.
Upon learning why Huang Xiaolong had come, Zhou Hua asked with a smile, “I wonder which district’s house Young Master Huang would like to buy?”
Huang Xiaolong pondered and replied, “The location isn’t important; the most important thing is size, the bigger the better.”
Zhou Hua immediately presented Huang Xiaolong with a few house options, and in the end, Huang Xiaolong chose a mansion called South Mountain.
Of the several options Zhou Hua introduced, South Mountain Mansion was the largest and located in a quiet area, which met Huang Xiaolong’s requirements.
However, when Huang Xiaolong was about to make a payment in Gold Coins, Zhou Hua waved it off with a laugh, “No need, no need!
Since Young Master Huang has taken a liking to this South Mountain Mansion, from now on, consider it yours.”
“No need?” Huang Xiaolong was taken aback.
Spanning over ten thousand square meters, although located in a remote area, land in Broken Blade Imperial City was worth its weight in gold.
An estate like South Mountain Mansion would cost at least twenty to thirty million Gold Coins, and the Xintian Commerce was actually offering to give it to him for free?
“Correct, let this South Mountain Mansion be a congratulatory gift from our Xintian Commerce to Young Master Huang for securing first place in this year’s Imperial City battle!” Zhou Hua said with a smile, “I still have this much authority.”
Huang Xiaolong fell into contemplation.
“Young Master Huang, please do not decline.
This is just a small token of regard from our Xintian Commerce,” Zhou Hua spoke again.
“Very well,” Huang Xiaolong nodded.
If that was the case, he would not refuse the offer out of courtesy.
Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s acceptance, Zhou Hua’s face lit up with happiness as he said, “Young Master Huang, you must also wish to purchase some servants, right?
Come, let me take you to our Commerce’s servant transaction market for a look.”
Moved by Zhou Hua’s warm invitation, Huang Xiaolong let him take the four of them to the Xintian Commerce’s servant transaction market.
In the end, Huang Xiaolong selected thirty-two servants.
After choosing the servants, Zhou Hua personally escorted Huang Xiaolong and his companions to South Mountain Mansion.
Backed by a small mountain, the mansion’s design was elegant and majestic.
However, having been unoccupied for some time, some of the smaller courtyards in South Mountain Mansion were overgrown with weeds, and rooms inside were covered in dust.
Fei Hou took command personally, directing the servants to clean and tidy everything up.
Looking at the tidied Green Lake and the beautiful scenery of South Mountain Mansion, Huang Xiaolong felt satisfied.
This would be his new home, where the Huang Family might live indefinitely, or at least for a very long time.
After taking Huang Xiaolong on a tour around South Mountain Mansion, Zhou Hua finally departed, telling Huang Xiaolong to seek him out for any matter.
As long as it was within his power, he would surely get it done.
Watching Zhou Hua’s departing figure, Huang Xiaolong then turned and went back inside the mansion.
By this time, the sky had slowly darkened.
Huang Xiaolong had servants specially set up a bonfire in the backyard, placed some beast meat on it with seasonings, and took out Beauty Wine, Fiery Fire Wine, and Snow Moon Wine from the Asura Ring to taste with Zhao Shu, Yu Ming, and Fei Hou.
It had been a long time since Huang Xiaolong had felt so relaxed.
Winning first place in the Imperial City Battle was more glorious than becoming the Champion in ancient Earth’s martial arts examinations.
In that moment, Huang Xiaolong felt extremely content.
The four of them drank heartily and devoured the meat.
Although the battle had revealed his Double Dragon Martial Soul, Huang Xiaolong didn’t care.
Before fighting Xie Puti, he had already considered summoning his Double Dragon Martial Soul to defeat him.
Despite revealing his Dual Birth Super Martial Soul, what hadn’t been exposed was his cultivation of Yijinjing, his Inner Strength, nor did he use the Exquisite Treasure Tower or the God Capturing Ring.
Exotic Treasures could not only inherit Cultivation Techniques and Combat Skills but also be summoned as weapons for attack.
For example, the Exquisite Treasure Pagoda, now that the Second Level was unlocked, could be summoned, and he could activate the Devil Destruction Swallowing Array and Heaven and Earth Return to Origin Array within the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod, which could absorb opponents directly into the tripod and refine them!
As for the God Capturing Ring, once summoned, it could immobilize the opponent and the space around them during an attack, and as Huang Xiaolong’s strength increased, the ring’s power would become so strong that it could even freeze the opponent’s thoughts and breath.
Immobilizing the opponent’s thoughts and breath would be truly terrifying!
“Fei Hou, how is the investigation going?” Huang Xiaolong asked after sipping the wine.
In recent days, Huang Xiaolong had Fei Hou continuously investigate Yao Fei and the Yao Family, reporting back to him daily.
Fei Hou respectfully replied, “Reporting to Sect Leader, although Yao Fei ranks second among the five Heartless Young Masters, he is extremely strong, not weaker than Duan Wuheng!”
Not weaker than Duan Wuheng!
Huang Xiaolong was somewhat surprised, not expecting Yao Fei to be so powerful!
“Yao Fei holds a high position in the Yao Mansion, deeply valued and adored by the Yao Family Ancestor.
Besides the Yao Family’s influence, Yao Fei himself has cultivated significant power.
If he mobilizes his forces, destroying a kingdom like Luotong is not difficult for him!”
Huang Xiaolong’s eyes narrowed sharply; destroying a kingdom was not difficult!
He had not expected the forces under Yao Fei to be so substantial, let alone the colossus that was the Yao Family, which had been handed down for more than two thousand years.
Just then, suddenly, Zhao Shu turned his head, sneered at the void, and said, “Since you’re here, come on out!” After speaking, his right palm swept through the air, bringing down an old man in a black robe from the void.
As the old man landed, he looked at Zhao Shu with disbelief and horror, clearly not expecting to be discovered by Zhao Shu while hiding in the void.
Moreover, he realized that after falling, his body was immobilized, unable to move in the slightest.
“Spatial Control?!” The thought shocked him.
