Chapter 271: Chapter 271 Three Types of People【Third Update】
Guarding Slaughter City.
Qin Jun and the others headed towards the city gate, where the majority of the cultivators coming and going had solemn expressions, some even quickened their pace, creating an atmosphere completely different from that of a kingdom or imperial dynasty.
In this lawless land, there was no talk of rules, it was survival of the fittest, and if someone killed you, there wouldn’t be any official support for justice.
"Can we just kill our way up to Right Tiger Hall after entering the city?" Qin Jun asked You Fenghuang curiously, causing Liang Ping and the others to twitch at the corners of their mouths. Was this guy insanely bold? Didn’t he know that a colossal figure stood behind Right Tiger Hall?
"Of course, you can. Anyway, no one can control you," You Fenghuang said with a smile. She knew that the Netherworld Holy Sect was connected to the Black Flame Sect, whose leader, Ancient Lamp, had suffered a loss at Qin Jun’s hands—Red Boy had burned his physical body to ruin. Of course, this news only spread within the Black Flame Sect, and the reason she knew it was that Ghost Young Master had told her.
Without exaggeration, Qin Jun could now walk sideways through this lawless land.
"That feels good, I hate beating around the bush," Qin Jun said with a smile.
Liu Bowen suddenly spoke, "Your Highness, since we are going to take down Right Tiger Hall, why not claim Guarding Slaughter City for ourselves?"
He had long understood Qin Jun’s ambition, the lawless land would sooner or later become Qin Jun’s prey.
The lawless land was vast, even larger than the Nanzhuo Dynasty, not governed by any imperial dynasty, and the interests involved here were huge. High-level cultivation methods, magical instruments, and even treasures passed through and were auctioned off in the lawless land, with nearly every major power in the Southern Domain having planted their operatives here.
Both the Abyss Sect and the Imperial Dynasty did the same.
"That makes sense, we can try it," Qin Jun agreed, as the two of them talked about the future of Guarding Slaughter City as if no one else was there, which left Liang Ping and the others speechless.
Do you really think you can dominate Guarding Slaughter City just because Right Tiger Hall is gone?
Naive!
Soon, the group arrived in front of the city gate.
"To enter the city, pay a hundred second-tier spirit stones!" a guard lazily announced, chewing on a grass root. He leaned against the city wall, holding a large knife that he kept scraping against the ground.
Damn!
They’re robbing us!
Qin Jun cursed inwardly, his ambition for Guarding Slaughter City growing more intense. Such a lucrative city must be seized!
With that thought, he quietly took out the spirit stones, paying also on behalf of You Fenghuang. As for Liang Ping and the others, he couldn’t be bothered.
After all, whatever he paid now, he would have to take back later.
"Go in!" the guard said impatiently after glancing at You Fenghuang and Zhu Yanqing, surprised by their beauty but refraining from making a move. He knew that in the lawless land, there were three types of people you should never provoke.
The first is a monk!
The second is a beggar!
The third is a beautiful woman who dares to show her face!
After entering the city, Qin Jun said to Zhu Yanqing, "I’ll take you to your people first."
Zhu Yanqing nodded slightly, then Qin Jun turned to You Fenghuang and the rest, "You guys find a place to rest, and wait for the news of Right Tiger Hall’s demise."
Liang Ping and the others didn’t know what to say about Qin Jun’s bold declaration, but You Fenghuang was full of confidence in him.
"You said I’m your woman; just don’t forget that," You Fenghuang teased Qin Jun with a flirtatious glance before turning to leave, Liang Ping and the others followed.
Qin Jun shook his head and smiled, then followed Zhu Yanqing down another street, with Liu Bowen and the others closely behind.
...
Half an hour later, Qin Jun and his companions, having taken their time to look around, arrived in front of a pavilion.
Curious about everything in Guarding Slaughter City, they hadn’t rushed, strolling casually through the streets.
The sights and sounds along the way also gave Qin Jun a rough understanding of Guarding Slaughter City—this place was simply a black market haven!
Guarding Slaughter City sold everything, and even some cultivators, too lazy to find an auction house, would simply set up a stall on the spot. Occasionally, theft and robbery occurred, staining the streets with blood, and no one would step in to stop the fights—everyone just watched coldly from the sidelines.
"We’ve arrived. This is the information shop of our Imperial Dynasty."
Zhu Yanqing said with a low chuckle, as Qin Jun looked up and saw a plaque hanging on the pavilion, inscribed with Chufeng Pavilion. Several cultivators were coming and going, making it look like a common pawn shop; it was hard to associate it with the Imperial Dynasty.
Indeed, a true hermit hides in the city.
Qin Jun marveled, and at that moment, Zhu Yanqing stepped inside, followed by Qin Jun and the others.
"May I know what the guests would like to pawn?"
Upon entering the shop, a young man approached them, bowing and nodding, with a very attentive attitude.
Zhu Yanqing took out a golden badge with what seemed to be a pattern of birds on it. The young man’s face changed dramatically at the sight and he quickly whispered, "This lady, please follow me."
Just as Qin Jun was about to follow Zhu Yanqing, he heard her laugh and say, "You wait here for me."
Does it have to be so secretive?
Qin Jun had no choice but to wait, as he didn’t dare barge in. After all, the Chufeng Pavilion was backed by the Imperial Dynasty, and so far, Qin Jun did not have the strength to challenge the Imperial Dynasty directly, so he couldn’t be arrogant.
"There is an Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse hidden in this pavilion."
Li Cunxiao suddenly spoke, causing Qin Jun to raise an eyebrow. Could it be that the Imperial Dynasty sent an Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse to every city in the ownerless lands?
But after thinking about it, he felt it was impossible. There were so many cities in the ownerless lands; could Earth Immortal Realm powerhouses be as common as stray dogs?
The Chufeng Pavilion had only one floor, which was not very crowded and seemed somewhat desolate. Qin Jun and the others sat down at a table to wait.
Just then, an old monk in tattered robes walked in. He looked down on his luck, but Qin Jun, with sharp eyes, noticed that the monk actually left footprints behind, sinking four inches into the ground without causing cracks or noise.
Not simple!
The old monk glanced around the hall, and his gaze suddenly landed on Qin Jun and the others. He frowned slightly and then walked straight toward them.
"Stop right there!"
Li Cunxiao said sternly, his eyes unfriendly. The old monk stopped in his tracks with a smile, then said to Qin Jun, "The old monk sees that the young benefactor’s qi movement is extraordinary, most definitely a dragon among men."
Qin Jun smiled. Promising, huh? Starting off with flattery, I like it!
But the old monk’s next sentence made him uncomfortable. The old monk laughed and said, "However, the young benefactor may encounter a bloody disaster today. If you wish to turn peril into safety, you can spend money to eliminate disaster with this old monk."
Damn!
Even the land without a master has con artists?
Qin Jun truly broadened his horizons, staring at the old monk with an amused expression and exclaimed, "How have you managed to live until today?"
The corner of the old monk’s mouth twitched, and he said with a smile, "The young benefactor is not simple, quite venomous."
"Hmm, if you don’t get lost, I might not just be venomous in words," Qin Jun said with narrowed eyes and a smile, as anyone would be displeased by the curse of a bloody disaster.
"The old monk’s name is Sang Liang. What is the young benefactor’s esteemed name?" the old monk kept pestering Qin Jun for conversation.
Qin Jun said impatiently, "I think your name is missing two characters in the middle. Be careful of retribution!"
"Which two characters?" Sang Liang, the old monk, asked confusedly.
"Utterly Heartless."
"..."
Sang Liang was so angry his chest heaved. This scoundrel, how could his skill in insulting people be so extraordinary! Adding ’Utterly Heartless’ in the middle of his name would sound like ’Heartless to the utmost’, this kid was indeed roundabout when it came to cursing!
