Chapter 1022: 1021: Hundreds of millions

Pay the divine crystal and register, only then can Tang Feng enter the Five Elements City. Other than the city, alien gods can move freely across the Five Elements Star, but to enter the city, a fee must be paid.

Otherwise, entry will be denied. As for forcing entry, that’s not possible, the holy-grade array outside the city gates is enough to eradicate those with ill intentions.

This is the Outer Domain, not the Divine Realm, so one must act modestly.

Upon entry, Tang Feng curiously toured around. Honestly, somewhat disappointing; the city is poorly planned, and the buildings flanking the streets have been there for who knows how many years without any renovation.

If handled by him, districts could be zoned, and within a few years, the city could look completely renewed.

Of course, there’s also the possibility that history needs to accumulate, thus the city retains its original unique form.

Viewed this way, it is correct, yet if this persists yearly, many interests may vanish, ultimately turning tedious.

On Earth, people need fundamental ideological innovation; only through constant innovation can one become stronger.

Being content with the status quo isn’t impossible, but it’s difficult to achieve prominence.

People must dare to gamble on the future; what if success is attained?

Tang Feng entered a relatively outstanding restaurant; the business inside is quite decent.

Especially upstairs in the private rooms, nearly all occupied, Tang Feng also booked one and ordered a few signature dishes.

Then, he took out an ancient book and started reading.

About a quarter of an hour later, the room door opened, not by a waiter delivering food but by a woman in white snowy attire.

“Help me.” The woman’s appearance was ordinary, but her voice was very pleasant, and she possessed a temperament that could be rated at nine out of ten.

This is a woman with her own halo.

He wanted to see what she really wanted to do, if it was intentional or accidental, impossible to make a decision yet.

“How am I supposed to help you?”

“Someone is coming to find me soon, young master, all you need to say is that I’m not here,” the woman said nervously.

Tang Feng nodded and continued reading.

Sometimes the woman looked at the door, sometimes sneaked glances at Tang Feng, and finally, her beautiful gaze rested on the ancient book.

This is where her true aim lies.

The story of someone pursuing her is false; she cultivates Five Elements Wood and sensed the ancient book’s primitive and nostalgic essence, which made her very comfortable, even enhancing her cultivation.

This change thrilled her.

In the past century, her cultivation showed no progress, so this sudden delight was indeed remarkable.

She desires to acquire it; treasures that enhance cultivation are extremely scarce, hence anything that boosts cultivation, women would hope to obtain.

Worried that someone might interfere, she used a pitiful guise, hoping to seize the opportunity first.

Tang Feng noticed the passion in her eyes, her gaze mostly fixated on the ancient book.

He couldn’t help but find it amusing, thinking it was merely a travelogue; he didn’t practice Five Elements and had no idea what the woman intended to use it for.

“Beauty, should those chasing you have arrived by now, but without any reaction, have they returned?” Tang Feng asked.

“Perhaps they have; young master, what book are you reading?”

“Just a travelogue, do you wish to read it?” Tang Feng still didn’t reveal anything.

“Yes, yes, can I borrow it for a look?” The woman asked excitedly.

Tang Feng really handed it over.

The woman was slightly stunned, not expecting Tang Feng to be so accommodating. She smiled and then focused on the content attentively.

She seemed to forget this was someone’s reserved room, simply lingering quietly, immersing in the book’s content, sometimes smiling sometimes frowning, overall enjoying it like savoring rare delicacies.

The waiter had entered multiple times delivering food and drinks, yet she remained reading.

“Beauty, want something to eat?” Until Tang Feng called, she stood up, “I apologize for interrupting your meal. Here’s your book back, I’ll leave now.” Her face reddened, feeling quite embarrassed; she had never lost composure before a man.

Truly at a loss.

“Don’t rush to leave, I didn’t say anything; if the book benefits you, then keep it as a meeting gift, or a farewell gift. Either way, meeting is fate, wouldn’t you agree?”

“Thank you, young master; if I may ask, you’re not from the Five Elements Planet, are you?”

“No, I just arrived, quite unfamiliar with the Five Elements Star.”

“Here for business or leisure?” The woman sat down, intending to familiarize Tang Feng with the essentials.

“Leisure, just happened to stumble upon this planet, decided to explore; of course, if there’s business to be done, I’m inclined to attempt as well.” Tang Feng smiled.

“Oh, if it’s sightseeing, there are indeed some excellent places to visit,” she suggested.

“Oh, do tell.”

The two conversed unknowingly for quite some time.

They opened a room at the restaurant, then toured together, the woman eagerly insisted on guiding Tang Feng around.

Otherwise, that book couldn’t be accepted guilt-free.

Tang Feng complied; honestly, with her leading, he swiftly grasped the essence of Five Elements City, almost entirely familiar.

The difference was it showcased a multitude of things never seen before.

He purchased a portion and didn’t linger at the shops for long; constrained by time, only explored two streets before night fell.

Although the nightlife seemed appealing, Tang Feng intended to rest, thus inviting the woman for dinner before returning to the restaurant.

Recently, he repeatedly encountered strong foes, leaving body and mind drained, fortunately, the Undying Body’s formidable regenerative ability, along with the persistent nourishment from the Life Tree, kept him quickly recuperated, albeit mentally fatigued; pondering what Divine Martial City might look like after a century, whether the women completed their trials.

Even wondering what had become of his grown daughter, these thoughts lingered; unfortunately, the woman mentioned nothing about the Divine Realm.

This somewhat disappointed him; however, he planned to visit the city lord tomorrow, perhaps it might surprise him.

The next day brought drizzling rain. As the saying goes, rain is abundant when nobles travel; Tang Feng couldn’t help but feel amused.

The city lord of Five Elements City isn’t someone anyone can meet, yet Tang Feng believed he would meet him.

Arriving outside the City Lord Mansion, Tang Feng asked the guards at the entrance to report, but they refused, citing his lack of an appointment.

He had anticipated a method, tossing a bag of divine crystals over.

The guard captain was startled, so many divine crystals, he wouldn’t accumulate this much even in a century, indeed a gift received.

Thus, he took the small porcelain bottle given by Tang Feng and entered the City Lord Mansion.

Soon, a middle-aged man personally welcomed him.

“I’m Gao Song, the Five Elements City Lord. Is it the young master who wishes to see me?”

“City Lord Gao, it’s me, I have a few inquiries.” Tang Feng responded.

“Please come inside.” Gao Song’s composure faltered upon seeing the divine pills, such a divine man must be accommodated.

Observing the young Tang Feng, he couldn’t help but worry; these divine pills wouldn’t originate elsewhere, would they? If so, it’d be very disappointing.

Nonetheless, outwardly, he remained extremely hospitable, as this was the proper etiquette, and once invited in, hospitality must be thorough, which concerns courtesy.
