Chapter 121: Chapter 121 Pearl City Qie Yue (3)_1
Sun Kui and Lei Xiaohu were furious when they learned about Sang Yu and her mother’s situation. However, Sang Yu said, "They are just irrelevant people. I’m not even angry, so why are you?" which calmed them both down.
"If I encounter that so-called Master Niu in Holy Sea City, I swear I’ll beat him so badly his own mother won’t recognize him!" Sun Kui finally said viciously.
In mid-September, all the students heading to Holy Sea City returned to Empire College. Dugu Qianye found some time to discuss the subsequent plans with Xie Ping, the most important being how to ensure the safety of the students should there be a conflict with the Divine Temple.
To bring the principal and Youwu back from Holy Sea City was something Xie Ping himself wasn’t very confident about. He just wanted to have a legitimate reason to look for them, and as for the situation after finding them, they could only adapt to the circumstances at that time.
Dugu Qianye told Xie Ping about Mo Chi and the others going to Holy Sea City. Xie Ping was quite pleased when he heard this. Although he didn’t know how they were planning to go, having three more Phantom Venerables would surely increase their strength by a significant margin, wouldn’t it?
Once all the students had gathered, Xie Ping led them to Pearl City.
Pearl City is located on the easternmost edge of the Xuanyue Continent. Although not very large, it is the most prestigious city along the eastern coastline of the Xuanyue Continent, because it serves as the gateway to the Divine Temple. The residents in the city are either followers of the Divine Temple or its members. Pearl City is also under the jurisdiction of the Divine Temple. The City Lord of Pearl City is Fen Yi, the Senior Disciple of the Wind Temple Master. It is said that Fen Yi is highly favored by the Wind Temple Master. Due to its special status, not just anyone can enter Pearl City; one must possess a token from the Divine Temple.
The group included Dugu Qianye, the first-ranked individual in the personal competition; Dan Jingtian, the third-ranked individual; a total of 15 people from the top three teams in the group competition; Mo Feng and He Lian, the first and third-ranked in the Elixir competition; as well as Shui Wei, the second-ranked in the Beast Taming competition, who was the first girl to take a Zengyuan Pill at that time. Additionally, there were 10 other representatives, making a total of 30 people.
After more than ten days of hard travel, Dugu Qianye and the others finally arrived in Pearl City. With the token provided by the Divine Temple, they quickly completed the entry procedures. Upon entering the city, everyone couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
Though Pearl City was not large, it was incredibly lavish. The well-arranged buildings were exquisitely maintained and radiated a serene sanctity that made one feel that speaking loudly would be a desecration of the environment.
Xie Ping led everyone to the hotel previously mentioned by Yun Jin. Since the Divine Temple had already notified the hotel and reserved rooms, they were able to check in upon arrival.
Dugu Qianye tidied up in her room, and just as she finished, Xie Ping came over.
"Grandfather Xie, what’s the matter?" Dugu Qianye was not used to seeing Xie Ping looking so serious. "Are you worried about the principal and the others?"
"Not entirely. I’m concerned that if we confront the Divine Temple, these students will become the Temple’s leverage against us."
Dugu Qianye nodded and said, "We are a large group, and that makes us a big target. But you don’t need to worry, I have a way to make sure the Temple’s people can’t find them."
"How are your uncle and the others doing?"
"They are fine, rest assured."
Xie Ping stayed for a while longer before returning to his own room. Their every move was now under the scrutiny of the Divine Temple, and they could not arouse suspicion before reaching Holy Sea City.
Once Xie Ping left, Dugu Qianye flashed into the Refining Demon Pot. Upon entering, she saw Mo Chi and the others talking about something around the egg at the mountaintop. Now, Mo Chi, Mo Second, and Mo Third were all level 2 Phantom Venerables, while Mo Fourth and Mo Jian had also reached level 1 Phantom Venerable. With the abundant supply of elixirs, spirit fruits, and the unique time properties provided by the Refining Demon Pot, they had each advanced a level. Seeing Dugu Qianye come in, they waved at her.
"Qianye, is this your Phantom Beast? What species is it? We’ve never seen it before," asked Mo Third.
Dugu Qianye walked over and touched the increasingly beautiful egg, feeling its growing affinity for her; her frequent "interactions" with it had not been in vain.
"I don’t know what kind of Phantom Beast it is either. It contracted me without saying what it was. After the contract, it has been staying here," Dugu Qianye shrugged, indicating she was just as clueless.
"It contracted with you?!" Mo Lao San exclaimed in surprise, "Phantom Beasts can initiate contracts too? How come I never encounter such good fortune!"
"Qianye, how did you get in here?" Mo Chi interrupted Mo Lao San’s clowning and asked.
"We’ve arrived at Pearl City. I came in to let you know. I feel there is a Phantom Venerable in this city. If you go out, you’ll probably be sensed. So, you need to stay here for a while longer."
"A Phantom Venerable? Probably a Hall Master from one of the temples."
"I think it should be the Wind Temple Master. After all, his chief disciple is the City Lord of Pearl City; it makes more sense for him to be here."
"We understand. This place is so nice, we don’t want to leave yet!"
Dugu Qianye smiled, left the Refining Demon Pot, and sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate for a while, shaking off the fatigue of travel. He had just exited his meditative state when he heard Dan Jingtian knocking on the door outside.
"Brother, come downstairs for food."
Dugu Qianye opened the door and stepped out, seeing Dan Jingtian, Mo Ziqing, and Ye Canglan among others already there. Upon seeing Dugu Qianye emerge, Dan Jingtian pulled him along to head downstairs.
"Come on, brother, everyone has gone downstairs to eat. I hear the food here is delicious; we’d better hurry. Otherwise, all the good stuff will be gone!"
Dugu Qianye, being pulled downstairs by Dan Jingtian, hadn’t reached the ground floor yet when he heard an argument below.
"Beat it, you’re faceless without a face!"
"This dish was clearly ordered by us, why should it be served to you?"
"Oh, you really think that just because you from the Mors Empire came in first, you’ve turned things around? Think you can take us on one-on-one?"
"Bring it on, who’s afraid of whom?!"
They glanced at each other and hurried down to the first floor. As soon as they arrived, they saw Sun Kui and his group together with people from the Cangqiong Empire.
"What’s going on?" Dan Jingtian rushed over, standing in front of Sun Kui and his group. "You want to fight, fight me!"
The people from the Cangqiong Empire didn’t say a word upon seeing Dan Jingtian. He was, after all, the third-ranked individual competitor, and they certainly didn’t dare to challenge him.
"What’s the matter?" Dugu Qianye walked over, grabbed Dan Jingtian, and turned to ask Gao Liang.
"We ordered a dish, and when it was served, they insisted it was theirs and demanded Xiao’er bring it to them. We heard them order, and they definitely didn’t order that dish. So..."
So they were clearly just looking for trouble!
"What’s happening here?" Cang Jin came down from upstairs, saw the chaotic hall, and asked with a dark face. Seeing Dugu Qianye there too, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, then he looked sternly at the people from the Cangqiong Empire.
