The Six Immortals - Chapter 138

Chapter 138 – A Stroll Down the Streets

Over the course of the meal, Bi Fan and Luo Sheng didn’t even glance over at each other, as they ate their meals in a tasteless manner.

Luo Xiong couldn’t stop thinking about Yan Yu Si’s beauty, whereas Yan Yu Si was completely ignoring his presence. Luo Xiong was constantly trying to think of new topics to engage Yan Yu Si in a conversation, but she wasn’t having any of it.

Bi Fan was a bit grouchy, but kept his head down, as he continued to eat his meal.

“Bi Fan, the Jiu Yu City has an amazing nightscape; I’d like to show you around a little later, are you interested in going out for a stroll?” Yan Yu Si spoke abruptly.

“Yes! Yes, of course, I’d like to go…” Bi Fan reflexively nodded in agreement.

Luo Xiong’s face suddenly became very unsightly, while eyes started to flash from one point to the other.

He smiled and said: “Yes, the Jiu Yu City, indeed, looks very beautiful at night. Unless people have their own plans, we should all go out and have an evening out in the town.”

“Brother, I also want to go; this is the first time I’ve come to the Jiu Yu City.” Luo Sheng promptly expressed his desire.

“Brother Luo Xiong, can we also accompany you guys?” A core disciple asked.

Luo Xiong smiled: “I certainly don’t have a problem, but you’ll need to ask Miss Yan Yu Si, if she’ll allow us to accompany her…”

“I don’t want to take a large group with me.” Yan Yu Si replied in a cold tone.

Luo Xiong’s advances had been rebuffed again, and his face became even uglier.

As they saw Luo Xiong’s face deflate again, Jing Feng and Mo Nan simply couldn’t help laughing up their sleeves.

“You kids go out and have fun, but remember to come back and take some rest. Tomorrow morning, after breakfast, we’re going to attend the Heavenly Dragon group’s auction, and you’re all required to attend it, as it will help you gain some exposure.” Lin Xin Ya said with a smile: “And do not go around causing trouble. The Jiu Yu City, at this time, turns in to a mixture of dragons and snakes.”

“This is a critical juncture, and if we stir up trouble in the city, then we may even get kicked out of the tournaments.” Luo Xiao Tian added in a cold voice.

Youngsters are always full of curiosity. The outer disciples, especially, were more excited than the others, since this was their first visit to the city, and naturally, they wanted to see as much of it as possible.

Even those who had seen the city before wanted to go out.

The Jiu Yu City was a flourishing place, and had several fascinating objects that were new to the Quinyang people, since they dwelled in the mountains, a fair distance away. Obviously, the city’s limelight was bound to incite their imaginations.

The Quinyang Sect disciples started organizing themselves into small groups, as they talked and planned about making arrangements to go out together.

The outer disciples, who weren’t aware of the Jiu Yu City’s setting, started requesting the core disciples for company, since they were quite familiar with the city. As for the outer disciples who weren’t familiar with the core disciples, they had no other option but to stay back.

Bi Fan, Mo Nan, Jing Feng, Ji Ying Lan, Yan Yu Si, Luo Jia, and Lin Qing Yao had decided to form a seven-strong team for touring the city together.

“Brother Jing Feng, can you please take us with you?” there were three disciples remaining, who still hadn’t been able to find themselves company; left with no other option, they resorted to pleading to Jing Feng, since they didn’t want to be left behind.

“Jing Feng, this is a rare opportunity for them; you must take them along, and show them around.” Ling Xin Ya said as he started to laugh.

“Well, you can come with us, but…. Don’t cause any trouble.” Jing Feng said.

“Brother Jing Feng, we won’t cause any trouble at all.” Those three disciples promised earnestly, as they continued to shake their heads in submission. They were so desperate to go out and experience the city’s flavors, that they’d be willing to do anything to convince Jing Feng, at this point.

“Well, let’s get going. There are several places that we can go to, and you’ll really like a few of them.” Lin Qing Yao said.

“Thank you, elder sister.” Since they were desperate to impress, those three disciples were trying to be as courteous as possible.

At this time, it wasn’t completely dark yet, and the sky outside was gleaming in the multi-colored sunlight of the sunset.

The streets outside were beginning to get very lively, as the shops weren’t prepared to close down for business just yet, and had started setting up lanterns.

The ten-strong delegation, of which Bi Fan was a part, walked around the street of the Jiu Yu City, with an excited look on their faces.

Bi Fan and the other outer disciples, especially, were more excited and curious than the others, since it was their first visit to the city.

“The Jiu Yu City is so amazing, and busy ah! I’ve seen some other towns, but this place is on a whole new level!” A disciple exclaimed in admiration.

His name is Wang Yun Fei, and since he had already managed to reach the ‘Transformation’ layer, he too was appointed to participate in the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon List tournament.

“That’s definitely true. You can find everything in the Jiu Yu City, ranging from the most low-grade items to ‘Spirit’ realm weapons. You can buy anything here, as long as you have the money.” Jing Feng laughed.

“What?! We can find ‘Spirit’ realm weapons here, ah!” Bi Fan was extremely surprised.

It must be mentioned, that even the Quiyang Sect, only had one completely intact ‘Spirit’ weapon, and the few others, which they had in their arsenal, were quite badly damaged. (There was a one-line mention of this long, long, ago.)

Even the power of a damaged ‘Spirit’ realm weapon, was beyond comparison to the top-quality weapons, which even the most elite martial artists used.

The ‘Spirit’ weapons were considered extremely powerful, and obviously, were exceptionally valuable and rare.

“The Jiu Yu City is one of the core cities of our world, so it wouldn’t be strange to find a ‘Spirit’ realm weapon here. As far as I know, the Heavenly Dragon group will probably put up some badly damaged ‘Spirit’ realm weapons in the auction tomorrow.” Yan Yu Si said.

Bi Fan asked: “Miss Yan Yu Si, how much is a ‘Spirit’ grade weapon worth?”

“A completely intact, low-grade, ‘Spirit’ grade weapon is priceless. Even if someone manages to find such a weapon, they wouldn’t be foolish enough to come up with it for the auction. And even if someone was selling such a weapon, our Quinyang Sect simply doesn’t have the financial resources to buy something like that.” Yan Yu Si replied.

Bi Fan’s mouth fell open: “Wow, I didn’t know that the ‘Spirit’ Realm weapons were that precious! It’s better that I just forget about them.”

“Yes, don’t be too ambitious, but there’s still a chance. There are several very dangerous places in the world, where people can sometimes unearth ‘Spirit’ grade weapons. As long as you’re strong enough to venture out into such an area, then with a bit of luck, there’s a chance that you could find a ‘Spirit’ grade weapon.” Yan Yu Si said.

Bi Fan and the others had already started dreaming. They were all fantasizing about venturing into these dangerous areas, and battling their way through these territories, until they procured a ‘Spirit’ realm weapon. They were dreaming about becoming exceptionally strong, and becoming the subject of mass admiration.

Yan Yu Si could see that mindless smirk on the faces of several people, and knew very well as to what they were thinking.

Everyone has their own fantasies, but getting a ‘Spirit’ realm weapon is a matter of fate more than anything else.

The Jiu Yu City was stacked with various attractions. Lin Qing Yao, Luo Jia, and Yan Yu Si were mostly interested in the refreshments, and the trinkets, while Jing Feng and the boys were mostly interested in weapons and wine. Bi Fan had almost succeeded in getting himself drunk, following which, he bought even more wine, which he stored inside his Yin Yang pouch.

The streets of the Jiu Yu City had a line of shops on both sides, which also included shops that were selling weapons and other equipment of combat. Whenever Bi Fan and the other boys would see such a shop, they’d go in to see the items on display.

Bi Fan, Mo Nan, Jing Feng, Ji Ying Lan, and Wang Yun Fei were all supposed to participating in the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon List; so naturally, they were interested in checking these items out, just in case they managed to find exactly what they were looking for.

These weapon shops had a lot of variety, and they’d often find the right gears, but each time, they’d have to come out empty handed, since these weapons were far too expensive for them to be able to afford any.

Jing Feng might be able to afford a set or two, but didn’t do so, and only looked on in disdain.

They strolled on, unable to find anything that suited their taste and pocket, at the same time.

However, they would still enter the next shop, if it had a high grade weapon on display, since the display would impress and incite them.

“This is such an amazing piece of armor, but a hundred thousand spars… I wouldn’t be able to afford it, even if I sold myself.” Ji Ying Lan sighed.

“Don’t worry, you’re doing quite well. We must continue to strive hard, and we must practice, and someday, we might actually get a ‘Spirit’ weapon of our own.” Jing Feng tried to assure him.

Yan Yu Si added: “Yes, you must strive hard and practice, and win for the glory of the Quinyang Sect.”

“The Quinyang Sect, ah! The Quinyang Sect is completely useless, like the bunch of you. Useless people like you can only dream of brining glory to your useless Quinyang Sect.” The speaker was clearing nipping his neck in to start a fight.
