The Hero in Exile

"Tell me why you brought us here."

Led by the man, they arrived at a dark place.

The mysterious man looked back to make sure the soldiers outside the city gate would not see this.

“This way we won’t be seen by troublesome soldiers.” The man joked in a lighthearted tone.

"You'd better tell me your intentions." Lingyu looked at the guy warily, with his hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist, ready to subdue him if he made any big movement.

"Don't be so scary, guest." Feeling Lingyu's aura, he stepped back in fear.

The reason why I was so worried was that this person looked very suspicious, and he deliberately came to a place where the soldiers could not see him. And when I thought about the "Shadow" being dressed like this.

"Lingyu, don't be so nervous. After all, you just called us guests." Moran asked Lingyu to put down the weapon and continued, "Then tell us what you have."

"Master, you are still a wise man." The man patted his chest and let out a long sigh.

Then he pulled out a golden metal ingot from his collar. This thing glowed faintly but did not look like gold.

"This is the raw material for making imperial identity cards. I've just been watching you two for a long time and I think you two don't have identity cards, right? Hehe." The man laughed a little neurotically.

"What's the price of two dollars?" Moran couldn't stand his tone and went straight to the point.

"The customer is really impatient. One piece is three gold coins and two pieces are six gold coins in total."

"Molan, our money..." Lingyu looked at Moran with some concern.

"It's okay." He simply responded and then said, "I don't remember if it's a silver nugget, but it's not that valuable. Six gold coins is a rip-off."

"You have good eyesight, customer. But what makes it expensive is the holy energy attached to it. You have also seen that the brands will be detected by the crystal. However, my holy energy magic crystals are almost used up, so this is the only price." The man responded as if he had expected it, and spread out his hands to pretend that he had no choice.

Moran held his forehead slightly. According to what he said, the price would definitely not come down in a short time, and this guy's tone was so infuriating, like a hermaphrodite.

"Holy energy? I can make it myself, then the price will be cheaper."

"What? Is he some big shot? At least he has to be selected by the cult. It looks like he is a high-ranking nun?" The man murmured. At first he thought he was just an ordinary adventurer, but now he couldn't figure it out.

"That's for sure, but I don't know if I can help you, my dear..." the man replied nervously.

"Why should I help you?"

"How about this, I can not charge you any money, just help me to fill up this magic crystal with holy energy." After saying that, he took out a piece of crystal, but the light inside looked very dim.

Lingyu clapped his hands and said, "Deal."

After asking the two people's names, the man held the block in his hand. After a while, it floated in his palm like water and finally turned into two imperial identity cards.

"Is he an alchemist? That's rare."

"This is your ID card, hehe."

Lingyu and Moran each received their own identity cards. Lingyu silently concentrated her strength and injected the holy energy into the identity cards one by one and then into the magic crystal. The magic crystal became somewhat dazzling because it was filled with holy energy.

"This is your stuff. Let's go and have a good meal, Moran." He threw a handful of crystals over.

The man held the crystal tightly in his arms. It was enough to make him a lot of money. He had really struck gold this time.

Moran and Lingyu ignored this mentally unstable man and joined the team outside the city gate.

"I almost forgot you knew this. I didn't expect it to be so useful this time. If you are out of money, it would be great if you could use Holy Light to heal others."

Lingyu's expression became a little more terrifying, and she looked at Moran coldly.

"If it doesn't work, I can use this holy light that heals others to send you to hell."

"It's just a joke, don't suggest it." This woman is so scary that I get goosebumps just by looking at her.

"Madam and gentleman, here are your ID cards. May the Holy Light bless you." After confirming that the ID cards were correct, they were ready to let them pass.

"I'm really afraid there's a problem." Lingyu said in a low voice.

"I have a bold idea." Moran smiled wickedly.

Lingyu looked at Moran with some confusion.

"My friend, I just saw a man wearing strange clothes next to that tree. He behaved very strangely and lingered at the door for a long time. He looked like a demon."

"Thank you, sir. We will go investigate right away." The soldier didn't believe it at first, but when he saw the direction Moran pointed, he indeed found the strange man, so he called two people and rushed over.

Lingyu retracted her previous cold expression: "Pfft~ I didn't expect you to have such a bad taste."

"Who calls me the devil?"
