After being reborn, I took my childhood sweetheart to cultivate immortality.
Chapter 137 Huai'an City
This world is getting stranger and stranger. Not only can people ascend to immortality through martial arts, but they can also ascend at the peak of the Heavenly Rank, which is equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage.
According to the timeline Fang Tianhao mentioned, he must have lived approximately two thousand years ago.
His last words expressed his wish to use the treasure for the poor. Xu Qingman's family thought it was a good idea, since they were prepared to live as wandering knights for a few years anyway.
After storing all the treasures in their storage rings, the family prepared to leave.
As for the luminous pearl given as payment, they accepted it without hesitation.
When Xu Shuyin came out of the cave, she was holding a little white fox named Xiaobai in her arms, saying that she would take it with her to travel the world.
This little white creature is not the same as the original one; it must be a descendant of that little white creature. Xu Shuyin examined it carefully and determined that the little guy was only about twenty years old.
It must have been arranged by its parents that it was able to stay here.
Now that its mission is complete, it can definitely leave this place with the owner it chose.
After leaving the mountains, the family returned to the official road and rode their horses towards Huai'an City.
Huai'an City truly lives up to its reputation as one of the four largest cities in the Tianyuan Kingdom, boasting city walls up to twelve meters high and ancient, grand city gates.
Even the soldiers guarding the city were skilled in martial arts.
However, the cost of entering the city was outrageously high, requiring one tael of silver per person.
If this were an ordinary person, they wouldn't even have the right to enter the city, right?
No wonder the pedestrians heading towards the city gate were either martial arts practitioners carrying swords or wealthy people riding in carriages.
Is Huai'an City going to refuse entry to all poor people? It seems the city lord is no good person.
Upon entering the city, Xu Qingman and her family were immediately drawn to the bustling scene.
Not only were the shops on both sides bustling with activity, but many vendors also hawked their wares along the street. Pedestrians and vehicles flowed endlessly through the streets, creating a vibrant and lively atmosphere.
This is what a marketplace should look like, isn't it? Compared to the deserted atmosphere of the streets of Lingchuan Continent, it feels much more lively.
Seeing the two children with expressions of enjoyment on their faces, they led the horse slowly through the crowd.
Xu Qingman could tell that the siblings really liked this environment.
From the time they were old enough to understand, they were busy with cultivation every day, or they would go with their husbands to explore secret realms, or go into the mountains to collect spiritual herbs and kill demonic beasts.
Even when I go out for a trip occasionally, I always have to be aware of the safety of my surroundings, so I've never felt so comfortable before.
It seems that whenever possible, the family should occasionally find an ordinary place to stop and enjoy the pleasures of life.
We found a nice inn to settle down first, mainly because we needed to entrust the four horses to the innkeepers for care.
Afterwards, we went to a restaurant recommended by the innkeeper, ordered a few signature dishes and a pot of good wine. The family of four chose a window seat on the second floor, enjoying the food while admiring the unique scenery of the bustling city.
This restaurant, named Bafangke, truly lives up to its reputation as the most popular restaurant in Huai'an City. It boasts an extremely comfortable decor that makes diners feel right at home.
Moreover, the dishes are plentiful, and their color, aroma, and taste are all excellent.
The waiter was also very enthusiastic. No matter what questions Xu Qingman's family asked him, he answered them patiently as long as he could answer them.
Even if there are things he doesn't know, he will smile and apologize, admitting that he still has shortcomings.
I learned from Xiao Er that there was actually an organization in Huai'an City that specialized in selling information.
As long as you have the money, they can find out everything, from the private residences of high-ranking officials to the secrets of ordinary people.
Moreover, this organization holds a high position in the Tianyuan Kingdom, and they are not afraid of the king or the masters of the major sects.
Therefore, any information obtained through this organization is 100% credible and valid.
Of course, no matter who the person is, the fact that they have asked them for information will never be revealed.
Xu Qingman and her family were very satisfied with this news. With the Secret Pavilion, they only needed to pay some spirit stones to have someone investigate everything for them. And they could continue to travel around.
Around 1:15 a.m. that day, Xu Qingman and her husband arrived at a five-courtyard house in a residential area in the north of the city, following the address given by the waiter.
This place is the branch of the Secret Pavilion in Huai'an City.
According to the rules of the Secret Pavilion, before entering the gate, Yu Jinchen handed over a thousand high-grade spirit stones to the gatekeeper, and then followed a maid to the hall for tea.
The amount of money handed over before entering the store indicates the level of information the customer needs to purchase.
The higher the price, the higher the quality of the information you can buy, and vice versa.
Their minimum charge for serving customers was one hundred taels of silver, and the information that could be bought at that price was only the secrets of ordinary wealthy merchants.
A price as high as a thousand top-grade spirit stones can help you uncover the secrets of any organization or gang in the Tianyuan Kingdom.
Even if someone wants to find out royal secrets, as long as the price is right, the Secrets Pavilion can find out everything for you clearly.
Less than a quarter of an hour after the gatekeeper took the spirit stones inside, someone came to call Xu Qingman and the other person over.
After passing through the first courtyard, the maid led the two of them along a gravel path to a three-story building.
Upon reaching the second floor and arriving at the door of the first private room, the maid gently knocked. After receiving a response from inside, she opened the door and bowed to invite the couple inside.
After the two were seated and a cup of hot tea was poured for them, the maid left the room and carefully closed the door.
At this moment, a clear, cold male voice came from behind the screen, "Welcome to the Secrets Pavilion. May I ask what kind of information you wish to purchase? The Secrets Pavilion will surely ensure that you leave satisfied."
"What? Evil arts, and even demonic possession? I wonder why you would make such a request, esteemed guest. Have you already made a discovery before making this request?"
When the question was asked, the voice behind the screen was no longer so steady, as if it were the first time the person had heard this news.
Seeing that Yu Jinchen and the other person did not answer him immediately, the man continued, "Honorable guest, as long as it is said here, there is absolutely no risk of it being leaked."
The fact that you two are here indicates you've thoroughly researched our Secret Archives. Of course, if the information you provide is useful, we will appropriately reduce the fees.
The reason why Xu Qingman and her husband did not answer immediately was not because they were afraid of revealing their personal information or worried about the cost; they simply hadn't figured out how to answer yet.
Seeing how anxious the man was, they decided not to delay any longer.
He directly recounted how his family was robbed outside Dongyang City, and how he discovered that the Dongtian Sect and the two elders of the Wuji Sect were practicing evil arts and possibly using the blood of young boys and girls for cultivation.
Upon learning this news, the person behind the screen actually came out, bowed deeply to Xu Qingman and her husband, and promised to find out all the secrets of the two sects as soon as possible.
