Supreme Martial Artist - Chapter 60
Chapter 0060 County City!
Chu Jiangnan’s words made Qin Fei’s brows furrow even more tightly. What exactly was going on?
His words made Qin Feiyue even more confused. What was wrong with this guy?
Qin Fei didn’t understand. He felt that his mind was in a mess, but since Chu Jiangnan had already done so, wouldn’t he be a fool if he didn’t leave? It was impossible to ask him what exactly was going on, right?
He and Lei Zhen left Chu Yuecheng under the cheers of Chu Jiangnan, and their minds were filled with question marks.
Ten miles away from the city, Lei Zhen finally couldn’t help but pull Qin Fei and say, “Second brother, what the hell is going on?”
Qin Fei smiled bitterly, “Big Brother, I’m also confused. I really don’t understand why Chu Jiangnan came to such a show!”
Lei Zhen nodded. He had stayed in Beixuan City for eight years. Relying on the ability of Yongsheng Auction House to gather information, he naturally had a clear understanding of every important clan’s affairs. There shouldn’t be any empress behind Qin Fei. Chu Jiangnan’s attitude was truly confusing.
They couldn’t be bothered to think too much about things that they couldn’t figure out. The two of them took advantage of the night to make their way. Since they had escaped now, the further away they were from Chu Yuecheng, the better, so as not to cause any more trouble.
Besides, Chu Jiangnan had just returned to the study room after sending Qin Fei and the other two off. A beautiful woman came looking for him and cried out to ask him to explain why he wanted to divorce himself and why he wanted to kill his brother.
Chu Jiangnan looked at the woman he loved the most. He sighed and did not explain anything. He ordered someone to drag her out and chase her out of the City Lord’s Mansion, leaving her to die on her own!
Suddenly, a chill appeared in the room. His expression turned cold as he stood up respectfully and saluted the old man who suddenly appeared.
“You did a good job! You will leave for Beixuan City tomorrow! You should understand this king’s request, right?” The old man said coldly.
Chu Jiangnan nodded his head and said with some confusion, “Lord, this lowly person has something unknown. Since you want me to go to Beixuan City to dismantle the Qin Family’s forces, why do you want this lowly person to let Qin Fei go?”
Just as he finished speaking, the old man’s gaze turned cold. A golden light suddenly appeared out of thin air and slashed past Chu Jiangnan’s left face.
Pu …
A stream of blood fell on the clean and smooth floor, and one of his ears fell.
Chu Jiangnan did not say a word. He did not even dare to cover his wounds. He hurriedly knelt down at the old man’s feet in fear and said in a mournful voice, “Lord, spare me. This lowly one knows that I was wrong!”
“Hmph! Do I need to explain to you what this king has told you to do? You just need to know that everything will be done according to this king’s instructions!” The old man coldly threw down a sentence and disappeared without a trace.
Only then did Chu Jiangnan tremble and stand up. Without looking at the bloody ears on the ground, he hurriedly went to prepare for his departure.
Xuan City was a thousand miles away from Bei Xuan City. Along the way, Qin Fei and Lei Zhen traveled during the day and rested at night. After three days, they finally arrived at Xuan City.
When he first entered Xuan City, Qin Fei was filled with emotions. Compared to Xuan City, Beixuan City was like a village and a big city. He felt that his previous experience was like a bumpkin.
Xuan City was surrounded by tall and thick city walls. The walls were ten meters tall and five meters thick. They were indestructible. Outside the city was a wide moat. The river roared, stirring up waves that were three meters tall and fifty meters wide. This limited the ability of anyone with a cultivation below the Mortal Martial Realm to cross the moat. They could only obediently cross the suspension bridge outside the city gate.
When they entered the city, they needed to undergo a close examination. The soldiers guarding the city were all imposing and had extraordinary momentum. Their eyes swept past everyone who entered the city like lightning.
Everyone who entered the city carefully walked past the soldiers. Once the soldiers suspected anyone had any questions, they would immediately stop them and ask them clearly.
Of course, it was impossible for the soldiers to stop everyone and ask questions. Otherwise, few people would be able to enter the city all day long.
Qin Fei and Lei Zhen did not encounter any difficulties. They entered the city and looked at the wide, clean and orderly streets. Qin Fei sighed even more with admiration for the prosperity and strength of the Prefecture City.
The streets of the city were bustling with people. The cries of various vendors rose and fell one after another, demonstrating the prosperity and prosperity of Xuan City to every newcomer to Xuan City.
“Second brother, let’s go to the auction house first, and then I’ll take you to the Pill Master Association!” Lei Zhen enthusiastically said as he led Qin Fei towards the center of the city.
Along the way, Lei Zhen introduced Xuan City to Qin Fei. When Qin Fei sighed at the prosperity of Xuan City, Lei Zhen smiled and said, “To be honest, Xuan City is just an ordinary city. Although it is much bigger than Beixuan City, it can only be considered a small city!” “Wait until you have the chance, big brother will take you to the Prefecture City to see what a real big city is, what is magnificent and spectacular!”
Qin Fei’s tongue twitched. How could this be called a small town or a small place? Then how magnificent should the Prefecture City be?
He couldn’t help but have the thought of wandering around the empire and seeing the scenery.
“Second Brother, let’s go to the branch by carriage. It will take us a lot of time to walk like this!” Lei Zhen called for Qin Fei to enter after arriving at a shop that specialized in renting horse carriages.
It had to be said that although Xuan City was more prosperous than Bei Xuan City, the cost was not low. Renting a carriage actually cost a gold coin, which made Qin Fei curse profiteers secretly.
Seeing his displeased expression, Lei Zhen smiled and said, “Second Brother, although this gold coin is enough to feed a family of three in the countryside for several days, in this Xuan City, a gold coin is nothing. You can tell that this gold coin is not wrongly spent, and this carriage is only of the lowest grade!”
Qin Fei curled his lips. That was the most suitable place to live in Beixuan City!
Of course, he also understood, The busier the city, the higher the consumption, but correspondingly, the higher the income and remuneration. These are all proportional. Although Xuan City consumes a lot of money, it is easier to make money. Because the bigger the city, the more people there are. Doing business, of course, the better. As long as the popularity grows, there is no need to worry about making money.
Sitting in the carriage, Qin Fei couldn’t help but see that the standard of living of the people in the Prefecture City was indeed extraordinary!
The decorations inside the carriage were exquisite and luxurious. The space was very large. There were a few cases inside. There was sandalwood on it, and there was a bright fruit that was about to drip. There was also hot tea waiting on it. There was even a beautiful girl waiting on it!
This was simply an emperor-like enjoyment!
Qin Fei finally understood why this carriage had to rent a gold coin. For such a service, a gold coin could be considered cheap!
“How is it? Is this gold coin worth it?” Lei Zhen laughed and pulled Qin Fei to sit down.
The beautiful woman serving at the side elegantly poured tea for the two of them, and her sweet voice entered their ears, causing them to be intoxicated.
Qin Fei was not used to having an unfamiliar woman accompany him, so he said to Lei Zhen, “Can I let her go down? I’m not used to it!”
“Of course! But merchants don’t refund money!” Lei Zhen laughed.
Qin Fei was too lazy to care about whether or not he could refund the money. In the Qin Clan, although he had a high status, he was not used to servants serving him. Almost everything he did was settled by himself. In his bones, he did not treat the people in the clan as his own clansmen.
“Sir, please don’t let me down! Please!” Hearing Qin Fei’s words, the beautiful girl suddenly knelt in front of the two of them and pleaded anxiously.
