Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 798
Chapter 798 Encounter In An Alley
Ye Feng walked on the streets and watched the martial artists coming and going. The third level of the Divine Martial Arts was almost everywhere, and could be considered as the lowest existence. As for the third level of the Divine Martial Arts, they were like slaves. They could only do some chores and even serve as guards for others.
Qinli Middle Continent was the paradise of martial artists, and fierce competition would produce more geniuses.
The numerous shops and buildings floating in the void were all things that Ye Feng had never seen before. At this moment, his horizons were opened wide and Ye Feng’s realm was sublimated once again.
“This is the inn!”
As the sky gradually darkened, Ye Feng found an inn that wasn’t very luxurious, but compared to before, this inn was considered luxurious.
…
“What? Are you sure you’re telling the truth?”
Ye Feng suddenly revealed a shocked expression.
“That’s right, staying here for a night requires 100,000 Essence Pill.”
Ye Feng was shocked by this sky-high price. To actually need so many Essence Pill for a night, it would be better to directly rob them.
‘”Young Master, if you don’t want to stay, you can leave this place. Tian Yao City can’t accommodate idle people at night. If you don’t have a place to live and your own house, you have to leave Tian Yao City before dark. Young Master should know how cruel the outside world is.”
The shopkeeper narrowed his eyes, as if he didn’t even look at Ye Feng. After all, the third level of the Divine Martial Arts was also a handyman in the inn.
“This is 100,000 Essence Pill!”
Although Ye Feng was no less than 100,000 Essence Pill, he still felt that such a high price was too dark.
“This is the key to the door. Take it.”
After saying that, the shopkeeper took out a dark green key from the counter. It was actually made of jade, and there were many patterns carved on it.
“This must be the first time Young Master has come to our Tian Yao City, right? Here is a booklet that should suit you. I’ll give it to you free of charge.”
The shopkeeper took out a thin booklet and threw it in front of Ye Feng. From beginning to end, he did not have a good expression. Unless it was the disciples of the five aristocratic families and the ten great sects, they might be respected by the various forces. It was normal for a rogue cultivator like Ye Feng to be looked down upon by others.
“Thank you!”
After receiving the booklet, Ye Feng said gratefully. Then, he climbed the stairs and searched for his room.
The room was very special. There was no wall there. There was only a door. After stuffing the dark green key in, the door opened itself and a separate space appeared inside.
After entering this place, Ye Feng finally understood the reason why the inn was so expensive. It turned out that each room was independent, and it was a space that had been opened up, not an ordinary room. Thus, the confidentiality of the inn was guaranteed.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng was relieved.
The room was full of hot water and prepared fruits. The 100,000 Essence Pill were worth it.
After taking off his clothes, Ye Feng took a hot bath and felt comfortable all over.
He put on his clothes and opened the booklet the shopkeeper gave him, wanting to see what was recorded in it.
The booklet was not very thick. It only had a dozen pages. Ye Feng had spent almost a dozen breaths to read it all.
“Hu!”
Ye Feng took a deep breath and roughly understood the basic situation of Tian Yao City.
The reason it was called Tian Yao City was because this city was under the control of the Tian Yao Clan. If one wanted to do business here, they had to pay an expensive fee to the Tian Yao Clan, so the fee was extremely expensive.
Moreover, the Tian Yao Clan had issued a rule that no one was allowed to erect temporary tents on the streets of Tian Yao City at night, so as not to damage the environment of Tian Yao City. There was also another point. If one wanted to survive here for a long time, they had to buy real estate. These properties were built by the Tian Yao Clan and sold to those martial artists who needed them at an expensive price.
After many martial artists entered, they found that the environment here was very suitable for survival. Living in an inn was very expensive. Helplessly, they had to spend a lot of resources to buy a house of their own and temporarily live here peacefully. Moreover, this place was close to the Setting Sun Mountain Range. Martial artists liked to experience here and hunt demonic beasts. It was considered a paradise for martial artists.
After tidying up everything, Ye Feng let out another breath.
“This Tian Yao Clan is really tyrannical. They actually control the entire city and treat it as their own backyard.”
This was Qinli Middle Continent. It was extremely cruel. Compared to him, this was not bad. Although martial artists had spent a lot of resources, they were blessed. With the Tian Yao Family guarding this place, the surrounding demonic beasts did not dare to approach.
Shenwu Continent, 90% of the continent are barren mountains, continuous mountain ranges, humans only occupy one-ninth, it can be imagined that in Shenwu Continent, it is basically the world of demonic beasts.
There were even some areas inhabited by humans that were often harassed by demonic beasts and constantly devoured by demonic beasts. Many martial artists had no choice but to choose their big backing and live a comfortable life.
For example, how many genius disciples dreamed of the Ten Great Sects? Unfortunately, geniuses are still a minority. There are still many people who are unknown. Furthermore, joining the Ten Great Sects is not a one-off thing. After three years, if you cannot become an inner sect disciple, you will also be eliminated. The sect will give you a batch of resources to leave or stay in the sect to work. It is extremely cruel.
After sorting out all the information, Ye Feng tidied up his clothes and prepared to leave the room. It was already late. Ye Feng planned to go out and inquire where he could buy Thousand Heart Grass. The purpose of staying here this time was to buy Thousand Heart Grass. Otherwise, Ye Feng would not stay.
When he came to the main street, he found that the night here was no different from the day. The streets were still filled with people. Now Ye Feng knew why no one was allowed to live on the main street.
“Brother, may I ask where I can buy medicinal ingredients?”
Ye Feng stopped a hurried Young man man and asked politely.
“Go a mile forward and turn into an alley. You should ask around. There might be something you need there.”
The man from Young man did not seem to be willing to do too much communication. He was on guard against Ye Feng and quickly left.
Ye Feng smiled bitterly. It seemed that the people here were very unfriendly. In other words, their pressure was too great, causing them to be very sensitive.
According to the route given by the man, after walking for a mile, Ye Feng indeed saw an alley. It was very dark inside, because the alley was very rarely inhabited. In addition, it was night, so there was no one there.
Ye Feng was courageous and didn’t stop. He walked in. With the help of his divine sense, he could see everything clearly. The surrounding buildings were clearly perceived by Ye Feng.
Just as Ye Feng was halfway there, he suddenly stopped. Although the alley was very dark, he could still use the starlight to see a distance of more than ten meters. He discovered that there was someone blocking his path in front of him with a bright scimitar in his hand.
Ye Feng did not want to interfere. He turned around and left. He discovered two figures approaching behind him. He also held a scimitar in his hand. In the pitch-black night, the blade reflected layers of fish-scale light.
“Friends, I’m just passing by. Please make way!”
Ye Feng had just arrived, so he didn’t want to offend anyone, so he said very politely.
“I can let you leave as well. Leave everything behind and climb over our legs. Your little life will be saved.”
A triangular-eyed man walked over in front of Ye Feng. Beside him, there was also a Young man who reached out to touch a few strands of goatee beard at the corner of his mouth. His eyes were constantly looking at Ye Feng.
“What if I say no!”
Ye Feng’s face instantly darkened. His divine sense swept past the seven people. Apart from the man with the sheephorn beard, who was at the early fourth stage of the Divine Martial Stage, the other three were at the peak of the third stage of the Divine Martial Stage.
“Kid, I forgot to tell you. We are called the Four Tigers of Jingmen. If we don’t have a hundred, there will be eighty of us. If you dare say no, then this is your burial ground.”
The titles of the four of them were loud and clear, and they even called themselves the Four Tigers.
In Ye Feng’s opinion, the Jingmen Four Tigers should be called the Jingmen Four Insects. Each of them was not much skinny, and they didn’t have much flesh on their bodies, let alone any parts of their bodies that had anything to do with the tigers. Even if they did, they were still ribs tigers.
“You’re saying that if you want to kill and rob people, then kill and rob them first, right?”
The corner of Ye Feng’s mouth carried a faint smile. Although Ye Feng tried his best to control his emotions, he was unwilling to interfere in other people’s territory. However, things came to him. It seemed that they had long been eyeing him.
“You’re quite smart. We’ve seen so many people like you who are ignorant of the times. Which one didn’t kneel down and beg for mercy? Please let us live. Since you’re unwilling to surrender, don’t blame us for being ruthless.”
The triangular-eyed man’s eyes suddenly turned extremely gloomy.
Ye Feng had already guessed about it. These people thought that they had come from afar and were not familiar with this place. In addition, their cultivation realm was not very high, so they were eyed by them. It was estimated that they had been following him ever since he left the inn.
“But there’s still a way out. I’ll kill you all and leave this place.”
Ye Feng’s killing intent was stimulated. The blood cloak on his body was calm and automatic. Every time killing intent appeared, the blood cloak would emit a murderous aura. This murderous aura entered Ye Feng’s body, stimulating Ye Feng’s killing intent even more.
‘”How dare you speak to us Jingmen Four Tigers like this? Since that’s the case, I’ll let you experience what it feels like to be worse than dead tonight. I’ll break your leg first, cut off your arm, and let you die little by little.”
The few of them were extremely vicious, Ye Feng’s eyes were extremely cold, his fists clenched tightly, ready to attack at any time.
“What are you still waiting for? Kill him for me. Xiao Hong from the Yihua Academy is still waiting for me.”
The man with a sheephorn beard couldn’t wait any longer. He urged the three of them to hurry up and make a move. There wasn’t even a single glance at Ye Feng in his eyes. It was as if the third level of the Divine Martial Arts didn’t enter his eyes at all.
“Yes, boss, let’s attack now!”
Hearing the words “Yi Hua Yuan”, the bones on their bodies became soft. They approached Ye Feng step by step. After killing Ye Feng and obtaining resources, they would naturally be able to go unrestrained.
Hearing the words Yi Hua Yuan, Ye Feng could easily guess where it was. In Shenwu Continent, there were too many places like this. Many martial artists felt depressed or looked for happiness. They would go to such a place to seek excitement and release their bodies.
“Kill!”
The three of them did not hesitate any longer. They chopped down at Ye Feng together. The peak of the third level of the Divine Martial Arts was not bragging. Although the three of them looked extremely vulgar and even very embarrassing, their strength was not fake. Moreover, they were ruthless and merciless. Their attacks were all deadly moves. They were extremely cruel.
