Chapter 1397: Chapter 1397 Under the Eyes of All
The City of a Thousand Peaks, as a cradle of the Bei Luo Empire, housed many outsiders, but the majority were still locals from Bei Luo.
As Su Chengyu and Fang Qing walked through, they inevitably attracted considerable attention, which was undoubtedly linked to their extraordinary appearances.
If they weren’t eye-catching enough, let alone being foreigners, even aliens wouldn’t bother giving them a second glance.
However, no one dared to trouble them along the way; after all, by their looks, Su Chengyu and Fang Qing didn’t seem like ordinary people to mess with, and commoners from Bei Luo weren’t foolish enough to invite trouble.
Su Chengyu glanced at Fang Qing and couldn’t help but comment, "With You Ming’s personality, he definitely wouldn’t dress as flamboyantly as you."
Fang Qing replied indifferently, "You know him, others don’t. What makes you think I’m not him?"
Su Chengyu was left speechless.
Fang Qing turned to Su Chengyu and asked, "Is that woman also from the Demon Slayer Department like you?"
Su Chengyu nodded and then added, "Her rank is even above mine."
Fang Qing huffed, "But you’re going to be promoted after this mission, right?"
"Who told you that?"
"That Mo Da."
Su Chengyu was at a loss for words, unaware of when Mo Ningchen had talked with Fang Qing; he didn’t remember at all.
"More or less."
Su Chengyu responded evasively.
Following Fang Qing’s request, Su Chengyu indeed shared the purpose of their visit to the Bei Luo Empire, but just the purpose, without revealing their identities or detailed mission information.
Such facts were meaningless to Fang Qing and would only increase her risk in the Bei Luo Empire.
"So what’s our destination now? Are we executing a mission?"
Su Chengyu shook his head, "Intelligence gathering is temporarily You Ming’s responsibility. I’m actually on free time now; bringing you along is to make the spies of Bei Luo notice us, hopefully making You Ming’s movements more convenient."
"Oh. So the destination is here?"
Fang Qing looked up at the towering commercial building in front of them and asked.
"Yes, just looking around to see if there’s anything worth finding."
Bei Luo International Trade Center.
Even on a global scale, it is one of the top comprehensive trade centers.
From common civilians to Martial Arts Practitioners, if you can think of any legitimate item, you can almost find its trading record here, and illegitimate items might not be absent either, though finding those depends on your skills.
This place was recommended by Mo Ningchen, knowing that Su Chengyu had a good eye for selecting things and was knowledgeable in everything from Magic Artifacts to Elixirs, so there might be some gains to be had here.
After hearing Su Chengyu’s introduction, Su Chengyu himself truly wanted to try his luck here.
An Elixir to repair Ye Qingci’s Immortal stature.
Ye Qingci’s situation was complex, and since she did not provide answers upon being asked directly, it was only after Su Chengyu’s recent trip to Bei Luo and continuously encountering Earth Immortal level experts that he started to get some clues.
The root issue, of course, was the lack of the divine boon bestowed during the Heavenly Tribulation required for ascending to Land Immortal status, which completely refines the mortal flesh and transforms it into a different form of existence.
Earth Immortals possess the form of Immortals, while Martial Gods have the Body of Martial God.
Without undergoing refinement, though a Cultivator’s strength and realm might not be impacted, their physical durability is far from comparable to a true Immortal’s.
If a normal Earth Immortal is a sword forged a hundred times, Ye Qingci is like one that underwent countless forging processes but lacked the crucial final quenching, making it overly rigid and brittle.
And it was precisely because of this, in the battle that alarmed the entire Capital City against Long Xuan, that Ye Qingci ended up defeated.
It wasn’t that she lacked the means to defeat Long Xuan, but if she really exerted all her power, she would undoubtedly be the first to perish.
This flaw might not mean much against an opponent weaker than herself, but once the opponent’s power matches or surpasses hers, she wouldn’t even have the opportunity to fight desperately.
In contrast, with Su Chengyu whose physical strength far surpasses his own realm, the situation is exactly the opposite.
To resolve this problem theoretically isn’t difficult.
It just requires finding a suitable way to refine Ye Qingci’s body again, ensuring her physical strength truly reaches the Earth Immortal level, and the ailment would naturally dissipate.
The only difficulty is determining what sort of force can match the intensity of an Earth Immortal’s Heavenly Tribulation; this level of control is extremely tricky to manage.
If too mild, it won’t have any effect; if too severe, it could directly harm Ye Qingci’s Origin.
After experiencing the Tower of Eternal Winter and witnessing the strength of Ascend to Heaven Realm Earth Immortals, Su Chengyu had a better idea of the level of intensity needed.
"Welcome, guests. Which floor would you like to shop on?"
"144th floor."
Su Chengyu spoke up, and the receptionist’s eyes immediately brightened before he respectfully said, "Please wait a moment, I will prepare a personal shopping guide for you."
"No need, just take us there... I’m just browsing."
Su Chengyu promptly refused the offer while Fang Qing, standing by his side, looked somewhat perplexed.
Once they entered the elevator, staring at the only button pressed inside the exclusive elevator, Fang Qing asked curiously, "Is there actually a 144th floor here?"
"No, ordinary people don’t go to the 144th floor, that’s a special area for us Cultivators and Martial Artists to select goods."
"And if an ordinary person requested this floor?" Fang Qing still seemed puzzled.
Su Chengyu smiled and said, "You think there aren’t people specifically watching over this place? Those below the Martial King level don’t even have qualification to enter."
Fang Qing gasped in surprise. Being a Martial Emperor was already an extremely rare supreme master in the Longjiang Four Provinces, but here, they didn’t even qualify for entry, which was indeed unexpected to her.
After the elevator opened, Fang Qing followed Su Chengyu out, scanning the not-so-crowded area before quietly asking beside Su Chengyu, "Are all these people Martial Kings?"
Su Chengyu surveyed around and replied, "Most of the guests are, with a few Martial Arts Supremes among them, and a few Cultivators whose realms are slightly higher than yours."
Fang Qing felt like her horizons had been broadened; it was her first time witnessing such a scene.
Just as she was about to take a closer look, Su Chengyu cautioned her, "Don’t get too curious. Many people are watching us; acting too out of the norm may arouse their suspicions."
Su Chengyu’s words immediately made Fang Qing mindful, and she whispered, "Are they from the Bei Luo Empire?"
"Yes, be careful and don’t reveal our identities."
