Chapter 893: Chapter 876: Tianyuan Floating Island Muling Anomaly!

"[No update today.]Eastern Emperor Inner City."

There was an ancient mountain that soared into the clouds, rugged and steep, with lush ancient trees and Spirit Medicine exhaling fragrance. A winding stone staircase led directly to the summit, and beside the mountain path, every other distance, there was a Stone Pavilion hidden among the ancient forests.

The mountain was called Wuxin Mountain, and the pavilion was called White Jade Pavilion.

The entire ancient mountain was about three thousand feet high, and the winding and twisted mountain path added up to hundreds of miles. Sporadically scattered were a hundred White Jade Pavilions; this was not a place for leisure but a place for warriors to meditate and focus their minds.

There was a special kind of momentum here that could make the mind of the warriors silently calm down, making it the best resting place after a long time of cultivation.

At this moment, at a distance of about a thousand feet high, within a White Jade Pavilion, three figures appeared, a man in a dark green battle dress and two women, one in green and the other in blue skirts, sitting on either side.

It was indeed Xiao Chen and Mu Qing, and at this moment, the two women had just come out of the Mountains and Rivers realm. After all, the Eastern Emperor City in the Human Realm was the central place of the Human Tribe East Wasteland, and the two women were naturally happy to come and broaden their horizons.

This was the second day since Xiao Chen had left the Turtle Head Commerce Assembly. Apart from the two hundred middle-grade Void Crystals he had exchanged at Turtle Head, Xiao Chen had not made any other moves.

At this moment, he still had no less than thirty thousand lower-grade spirit crystals left on him, which he needed to save for unexpected needs of the tribe, naturally not willing to spend them frivolously.

Having been brought out by Xiao Chen, the two women were quite happy, as such companionship from Xiao Chen over the years could be counted on one hand.

"Husband, the Eastern Emperor Domain truly gathers the essence of Heaven and Earth and the prosperous Qi of the human race. Compared to my borderland, it is incomparable." spoke one of the women.

"Yes, no wonder many warriors want to come to the Eastern Emperor Domain, even I don’t want to leave," replied the other.

"That’s easy to solve; sister can just stay in the Eastern Emperor Domain."

"I think little sister should also stay."

The two women kept joking around.

It was rare for Xiao Chen to be able to accompany the two of them, and even at this moment, the one-piece dresses on the two women were purchased in Eastern Emperor City.

It was not a beast robe but a kind of silk woven dress produced by an exotic beast called White Jade Heavenly Silkworm, which was impervious to water, fireproof, and could even withstand the attacks of supreme warriors, not a bit less defensive than middle-grade Spirit Armor.

Of course, these two dresses were very expensive, but Xiao Chen did not hesitate at all; with a wave of his hand, he immediately bought them, as long as the two women were happy, no expense was too great.

"Husband, those people are really annoying; they have been following us for two days now!" Mu Qing frowned slightly, her eyes sweeping over a White Jade Pavilion hundreds of feet below, where there were two Stage Eight Realm warriors, seemingly engaged in deep discussion.

Xiao Chen sneered, as he had already noticed that he was being followed when he stepped out from the Void Floating Island where the Turtle Head Commerce Assembly was held, but because they were in Eastern Emperor City, he dared not start a fight easily, resulting in those following them staying far behind.

The followers were actually warriors from the Qi Wu Hou division, who had competed with Xiao Chen at the Commerce Assembly. The people from the Qi Wu Hou departed on the first day after their trade ended, but unexpectedly, they were waiting outside the assembly.

And over the past two days, it was not just these two from the Qi Wu Hou division following them; in fact, they had changed to seven or eight different warriors already, but Xiao Chen was still aware of them.

Still, Xiao Chen didn’t take them seriously and continued to bring Mu Qing and Nianhua around the Eastern Emperor City, visiting various trading spots to see what they might need.

He completely ignored them!

"Let’s go to Tianyuan Floating Island and see if there are any treasures," Xiao Chen then said to the two women.

Tianyuan Floating Island was a small floating island, where many warriors and independent cultivators from the Eastern Wasteland gathered.

It had naturally become a massive trading place for independent cultivators. If one had the eye, they could achieve a fortune with a small price.

Such events were not uncommon on Tianyuan Floating Island; nearly every hundred years or even decades, there would be news of independent rangers obtaining treasures or fate, hence the name Tianyuan!

Xiao Chen took the two women directly to the Tianyuan Floating Island, located hundreds of feet into the void. The two discussing warriors didn’t move their locations, just like other warriors coming here for a quiet meditation, watching as Xiao Chen flew away.

But as soon as Xiao Chen and the two women stepped on Tianyuan Floating Island, one of the warriors’ hands revealed a sparkling Jade Plaque that emitted a faint glow.

Thump thump thump!

Xiao Chen led the two women onto Tianyuan Floating Island and quickly blended into the crowd like a tide; the entire island did not have particularly tall buildings but was instead full of warriors from various regions setting up stalls.

Stalls were densely packed as far as the eye could see, with some items even Xiao Chen did not recognize.

However, the warriors there were too disorderly; Xiao Chen even saw warriors casually picking up a few pieces of rubble from the Desolate Land, boldly placing them on their stalls.

Warriors from hundreds of regions of the Human Race Territories naturally gathered unique items from different places, each stall bearing its own characteristics. Xiao Chen and the two women continuously walked past these stalls.

Weird and peculiar items continuously passed before Xiao Chen’s eyes, but most were ignored by him as, despite appearing curious, they were merely worthless items.

Soon, Xiao Chen stopped in front of a stall where an old man had an interesting collection of items, namely various lanterns. It was common in the Desolate Land to use animal oil for fire, placed inside stone lamps.

Most of the lanterns in front of the old man were black, but from the blotchy parts, slight hints of green could be seen, clearly made of copper in various shapes including round, square, octagonal, hexagonal, and even in the shapes of exotic beasts.

"What kind of lantern is this?"

What Xiao Chen was holding, was a beast-shaped lantern resembling a Fire Dragon. The Fire Dragon curled with the dragon’s mouth serving as the lamp wick, yet it looked very worn out.

"I don’t know, but the price for these lamps, regardless of size or style, is one low-grade spirit crystal each!"

What!

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen couldn’t help but feel a pause in his heart. Indeed, befitting the Eastern Emperor Domain, the value of goods far surpassed other Human Race territories—a mere copper lamp, which functioned unknowingly, demanded one low-grade spirit crystal.

"I wonder if you still have any of this style of Fire Dragon Lamp!" Suppressing the tumult in his heart, Xiao Chen asked again.

"Yes, I originally had fifteen of these dragon-shaped lamps, but over the last ten years, four have been traded away, leaving eleven still available."

"Good, if they’re the same as this current Fire Dragon Lamp, I’ll take all of them," Xiao Chen said without any hesitation.

Soon the old man waved his large hand, and instantly, another ten Fire Dragon Lamps appeared in front of Xiao Chen. He examined each one and indeed, they were made of the same material as the previous one with no differences, possessing a rich, ancient texture.

Just then, a voice from Luli resounded in his Soul Sea, causing him to falter, and the next moment, four low-grade spirit crystals flew towards the old man.

"Sir, as I said, one low-grade spirit crystal per lamp, eleven Fire Dragon Lamps is a total of eleven low-grade spirit crystals."

In the same manner, Xiao Chen waved his hand, and out of the eleven Fire Dragon Lamps in front of him, he only took four into his Mountain River Seal, leaving the remaining seven on the stand.

He then left without further words, accompanied by Mu Qing and Nianhua.

The old man was left momentarily stunned, watching as Xiao Chen’s figure disappeared into the crowd before he came back to his senses.

"Could it be that my skill has declined?"

A few breaths later, as the astonishment faded from the man’s eyes, he looked at the remaining Fire Dragon Lamps and muttered.

The remaining seven Fire Dragon Lamps were indeed his imitations!

The purchase of these Fire Dragon Lamps, guided by Luli, was unexpected even to Xiao Chen; despite not knowing their purpose, they were worth four low-grade spirit crystals.

Following that, Xiao Chen and the two women, Mu Qing and Nianhua, continued to weave through the crowd on the Tianyuan Floating Island, occasionally securing a few seemingly broken treasures.

"Husband!"

Just then, Mu Qing exclaimed.

"What is it, Qing’er!"

Following Mu Qing’s exclamation, Xiao Chen instantly noticed the difference. At that moment, Mu Qing emitted a chaotic aura, clearly indicating that something had altered.

"Qing’er."

"Sister."

Xiao Chen and Nianhua called out softly.

Xiao Chen then noticed a strange fluctuation emerging from Mu Qing, even the lotus mark hidden at her brow seemed to flicker.

King’s Momentum!

This type of momentum was all too familiar to Xiao Chen. The warrior from the Blood Faint Noble Family had emitted such fluctuations; although Mu Qing’s aura was not as forceful, it was undoubtedly the King’s Momentum.

"I sense the presence of the Muling Family!" Soon after, Mu Qing managed to control the unusual movements within her, and said aloud.

What!

"The Muling Family!"

Xiao Chen exclaimed. Mu Qing carried the Muling bloodline in her body, but regarding the so-called Muling Family, they were utterly clueless.

Now Mu Qing had detected the presence of the Muling Family, even establishing a connection.

"It should be somewhere on this Tianyuan Floating Island."

Mu Qing had a trace of anxiety in her eyes, then she spoke, "But husband, Qing’er can’t determine whether it’s a person or an object."

Regarding the unfamiliar Muling Family, Xiao Chen was also apprehensive. The King’s Bloodline represented strength, and a slight oversight could lead to developments beyond their expectations.

"Alright Qing’er, since there’s a connection, and it’s on the Floating Island, let’s find it and see exactly who or what it is,"

Gently pinching Mu Qing’s lovely face, Xiao Chen comforted her, "Even if there are surprises, your husband is not one to shy away from trouble."

Soon, the trio merged back into the crowd, changing direction based on Mu Qing’s intuition, but they seemed to be heading towards a more secluded area.

Although Tianyuan Floating Island was not vast, spanning nearly a thousand miles, Xiao Chen and his companions had now moved away from the range of the stalls, heading towards another edge of the Floating Island.

Leaving behind the surging crowd, they discovered that the Floating Island also housed warriors, with Stone Houses scattered about.

Most of these Stone Houses were small, indicating that many of the warriors who settled on the Floating Island were likely wanderers or solitary cultivators, which slightly eased Xiao Chen’s worries.
