Chapter 1022: A Familiar Face!
Su Yi roasted the demon beast, finally satisfying Su Xiaoshuai’s appetite.
After a good rest, the group set off again, this time with Chen Chuan and the Blue Scaled Eagle joining them.
In fact, Chen Chuan had doubts before because he wasn’t sure about Su Yi and the others.
However, after learning about the Blue Scaled Eagle’s previous encounter, Chen Chuan started to see Su Yi in a different light, not because of his strength.
However, he was very curious. How could such a young boy have a demon beast from the Demonic Void Realm following him? What kind of background does he have?
"We are from the Overlord Sect. Just call me Su Yi. If you’re interested, you can join me in the Alliance Conference and compete for a spot."
After a day passed, Su Yi and Chen Chuan started to understand each other a little better.
Chen Chuan is a wanderer, without any sect or major ties, roaming the Chaos Realm on his own.
The reason he had a falling out with Teng Mao, Zhuo Min, and a few others was because they discovered a treasure, but Chen Chuan got to it first and claimed it for himself.
So, those four people were determined to take it back.
Now that Su Yi had met Chen Chuan, he thought this wanderer would be a good addition to his team.
"I apologize, Brother Su Yi. I appreciate your offer, Chen Chuan, but I have already promised to work with the Sun Flame Sect."
Chen Chuan shook his head, responding somewhat awkwardly.
"Like this?"
Su Yi felt a bit sad, but he wasn’t too surprised.
Chen Chuan’s strength is good. Among the young generation of any third-rate forces, he can definitely rank in the top ten.
It’s not surprising that such a wandering cultivator can find an alliance with a third-rate force.
As for the Sun Flame Sect, Su Yi also knows about it through Chen Chuan’s introduction. It is also a third-rate force, and its overall strength is roughly similar to the Golden Sword Sect that Su Yi knows.
"Not only me, but I also have two friends who are much stronger than me and have also formed an alliance with the Sun Flame Sect. This third-rate force is very strong, but there aren’t many outstanding young talents. That’s why they came to us few."
On the back of the Dark Golden Demon Falcon, Chen Chuan smiled and explained to Su Yi.
He and those two friends should be considered as being invited by the Sun Flame Sect because they were impressed by their strength.
As long as they can secure a qualification for the Alliance Conference, sacrificing a few people to the wandering cultivators would still be a very profitable deal.
"Then I wish you good luck!" Su Yi didn’t mind and simply smiled, saying.
"I also wish Brother Su Yi’s Overlord Sect can secure a spot." Chen Chuan also smiled and said.
However, even though he said that, Chen Chuan had a strange feeling in his heart.
Su Yi claimed to be from Overlord Sect, but Chen Chuan had never heard of it, and the young man’s strength was also unknown.
Vaguely, Chen Chuan wasn’t too optimistic about Su Yi.
He wanted to persuade Su Yi to find a powerful force to join forces with, as if their strength was strong enough, the sects would surely agree.
However, upon careful thought, Chen Chuan didn’t say such words because Su Yi seemed indifferent, as if he didn’t care about these things at all.
Five days passed, and the Dark Golden Demon Falcon and the Wolf-headed Demon Bat traveled at a fast speed, covering an unknown distance.
And it was on this day that Su Yi and the others arrived at a city.
"Tiangang City."
Su Yi murmured in his mouth, the three big characters on the city gate were so far away, yet clearly visible.
"This Tiangang City is a city under the Tiangang Sect, it is huge and bustling. I plan to exchange some things here and then continue on the journey, what about you, Brother Su Yi?"
Chen Chuan turned his head and looked at Su Yi, saying.
After spending several days together, he also found that this young man was the most decisive person among this group of people.
"A city under the Tiangang Sect?"
Su Yi pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, there should be a Lingbao Pavilion here, I also plan to buy some things."
Tiangang Sect, Su Yi had naturally heard of it, it was one of the top ten strongest forces in the Chaos Realm, consisting of three major first-class forces and seven major second-class forces.
In addition to Cangyun Temple, Nine Star Valley, and Blood Sun Sect, which were the three major first-class forces, the seven major second-class forces were Xuanying Sect, Red Sun Sect, Yuding Sect, Tiangang Sect, Wuyan Palace, Purple Shadow Building, and Green Flame School. Tiangang Sect was one of them.
As a city under the control of a second-rate power, Tiangang City is quite prosperous. The city gates and door lintels are much more impressive than those of Sword Star City, and I imagine the scale must also be much larger.
With such a huge city, Su Yi immediately thought that there must be a Lingbao Pavilion inside.
It seems that the many elixirs I bought in Sword Star City last time have increased in quality in the mysterious space. I should sell them.
In addition, in the Seven Star Sword Sect mining site, the Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, and Huang Jian also found some well-extracted Yuan Stones. Su Yi plans to use them to repay his debts.
Although it is still far from reaching a billion, it’s better than nothing.
"That’s great! However, Tiangang Sect is powerful, and the city has its own rules. It allows grudges and fights, but doesn’t allow killing. Otherwise, the strong members of Tiangang Sect will come and take away all belongings!"
Chen Chuan was somewhat surprised, but he and Su Yi get along quite well.
However, he also told Su Yi about the city’s rules, so he would be mentally prepared.
"I understand. I’m just going to buy some things," Su Yi nodded, expressing his understanding.
Then, he let Dark Golden Demon Falcon and Wolf-headed Demon Bat move around in the mountains outside the city, and agreed to meet at the city gate at a set time.
For safety reasons, Su Yi also had Soul Devouring Emperor accompany these two creatures, in case any unexpected events occurred.
You should know that there are likely many strong individuals surrounding this Tiangang City, so it wouldn’t be good if the two demon beasts were forcefully taken as mounts.
"Xiaobi, wait for me outside the city with them!"
Chen Chuan also had Blue Scaled Eagle and Soul Devouring Emperor come together, for increased safety.
"Let’s go."
When they were a few miles away from the city gate, Su Yi and the others descended from mid-air and hurried towards Tiangang City on foot.
"As expected from the Chaos Realm, it’s filled with fighting and battles everywhere."
As they proceeded, Su Yi sensed some movements around them, which made him quite emotional.
Not far from Su Yi’s left side, two cultivators from the Yuan Spirit Realm were having a bloody fight. One of them was pierced through the throat by the other’s sword and fell to the ground, dead.
However, before the victorious person could steady themselves, they saw a figure rushing out from the side and took their life as well.
All their belongings were taken by the person who appeared last.
In various other places, Su Yi also noticed shining eyes flickering from the pedestrians coming in and out of the city gate, as if searching for prey like a sharp-eyed hawk.
"These people are not good people!" Su Yi whispered.
"Do not provoke these people. They are all outlaws who specialize in finding targets outside the city to rob and kill. But as long as we don’t show fear and let them doubt our true intentions, they won’t easily attack."
Seeing that Su Yi seemed to be unaware, Chen Chuan explained from the side.
Su Yi nodded slightly in response.
This situation is normal here in the Chaos Realm, where fighting and plundering are both expected.
Just like this Tiangang City, the rules were established by the Tiangang Sect many years ago. They don’t allow killing, but they do allow fighting. It’s not just about maintaining order.
Imagine this, if both sides start fighting, once they become blinded with anger, they won’t care about any stupid rules. Killing becomes inevitable.
In this way, the strong members of Tiangang Sect can "follow the rules" and kill the killers, taking their belongings. It’s basically plundering.
This phenomenon may seem strange, but in this Chaos Realm, it’s considered acceptable.
Su Yi and his friends had expressionless faces, ignoring all those sharp gazes, and walked straight towards the city gate.
However, they didn’t want to start any trouble. Some people approached them along the way, seemingly trying to test something.
In response, Su Yi and his friends remained calm. Only Huang Jian emitted a faint aura, intimidating the person and making them back off, not daring to harm Su Yi and the others.
Witnessing this scene, Chen Chuan felt shocked once again. The strength displayed by the old man in the yellow robe earlier was at least at the advanced level of the Yuan Void Realm, truly a powerful individual.
Unconsciously, Chen Chuan’s impression of Su Yi improved a bit, finding him even more mysterious.
"Brother Su Yi, the Lingbao Pavilion you’re looking for is located to the east of the city. I need to go to the north side of the city, so I won’t be able to accompany you. Let’s meet directly at the city gate when the time comes."
After entering the city, Chen Chuan said goodbye to Su Yi and mysteriously ran off on his own.
Su Yi didn’t ask much about it and instead brought the Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, and Huang Jian to the east side of the city. He held Su Xiaoshuai close to him, not wanting him to be seen by some stronger individuals in the area.
"Lingbao Pavilion!"
It didn’t take long for Su Yi to find the location of the Lingbao Pavilion and walked straight in.
After presenting the black card, Su Yi naturally received the warmest reception.
With the protection of the Green Emperor and Yin-yang Dark Emperor, Su Yi entered the mysterious space when no one was around and exchanged various elixirs and spiritual medicines with the Lingbao Pavilion.
In addition to purchasing some more elixirs and spiritual medicines, all the exchanged Yuan Stones were used to repay debts, including the ones Su Yi obtained from the Seven Star Sword Sect.
They didn’t stay long at the Lingbao Pavilion, and Su Yi and the others directly walked onto the street.
As he walked past a shop, a woman inside saw him and couldn’t help but wonder, "That person looks so familiar."
