Capital of Daqi - Part I
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact/Jimmy-Chuuu
For the remaining six days on the way to the capital of Daqi - the Wriston Empire, Eadric Rong chose to seclude himself inside the VIP room he rented.He never left the room, except to cultivate and practice the sword techniques he obtained from the gift kept by the Bat King - the Kongjian Belt.Even if he was hungry, in the Taoist wooden rucksack, there was plenty of hard, dry bread, which was useful for filling his stomach when he was starving.The same goes for drinking water. There was a jug of cold water, which he refilled and drank in times of thirst.In the middle of his treatment process, as Eadric Rong was checking the herbal ingredients he needed to treat his internal injuries, his eyes fell on four stacks of copies of books that looked brand new.The four books appeared to be neatly bound and covered as if they were very valuable objects.With burning curiosity, Eadric Rong picked up the four books and read the front page. At that moment, his eyes widened, and the expressio

A flurry of activity. Baggage workers from Daqi city port were like ants making their way up the stairs to the first, second, and third floors of the VIP. They were clamoring for customers who needed services for the transportation of passengers' luggage.Of course, the passengers on the ship weren't just travelers. There were many merchants coming from the western regions of Bai Feng Country, who needed the services of baggage handlers to transport their goods off the ship.Eadric Rong jostled his way from the first floor of the ship, mingling with the economy class passengers. His goal was to camouflage himself among the crowd.He was worried that the white sects that had hunted him all the way to the capital had sent their champions or spies to scent his arrival."Keep dressing up like a Daoist Priest, it's not too much trouble for me," Eadric Rong thought as he adjusted his robes."These days there are many wandering Taoists who dress up in the robes of Taoist priests, just like m

However, the high cost of living in the capital, coupled with the responsibility of sending money every month to his poor family in the village, meant that Chen Yu had to live super frugally.As an apprentice who has only been working for three months, Chen Yu always gets customers from the lower class.All the high-profile customers had been gobbled up by his seniors. His job as a salesman was commission-based, which meant he was living on the edge and had very little money.If customers do not tip, and sales bonuses are not achieved because Chen Yu's monthly sales target is not reached.Not to mention, in the past two months, Chen Yu has not managed to book any sales.Almost all the customers of Koi Fortune Hall, those who come are rich people who are immediately welcomed by their senior colleagues.He was not given the freedom to serve the upper class at all. Today, however, he felt very fortunate to have the opportunity to serve a Taoist Priest, as none of his colleagues were will
Relatives of the State Teacher?
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact/Jimmy-Chuuu
Wang Lingyun, a dazzling eighteen-year-old girl, is a respected disciple of the Silver Moon Sect.She held a high status within the white sect, as she was said to be related to Wriston Imperial State Master Yang Zengthian.With her status as a relative of the State Master, Wang Lingyun's life in the Silver Moon Sect was extremely easy.She was often provided with various abundant resources, such as cultivation-enhancing herbs, pills, and medicines, from representatives of the Silver Moon Sect.Hence, despite her young age, she was already at the peak early-level Golden Peacock Swordsman realm. In fact, before long, this Wang Lingyun would break through to the mid-level Golden Peacock Swordsman realm.Meanwhile, Li Yunfeng, an eighteen-year-old youth, always followed Wang Lingyun wherever she went.Their relationship was nothing more than that between a princess and a servant, as Li Yunfeng was always getting his supply of resources from Wang Lingyun.His sacrifice of always faithfully

Wang Lingyun's face turned bright red, feeling as if she was slapped by the Taoist's confident words, "I want to buy this sword."Without thinking, Wang Lingyun instantly snatched the young Taoist's boastful words and asked him to put the Dragon & Phoenix Sword back in place."Hold on!" she shouted, breaking the silence. The Taoist was confused and gave her a strange look."I'm warning you. As a Daoist whose only job is to beg for alms, you'd better put those Dragon and Phoenix swords back where they belong.""That Fengren rank sword is already mine!" said Wang Lingyun in a stern tone.Wang Lingyun instantly stood in the way of the young Taoist and presumptuously snatched the Dragon and Phoenix swords from the Taoist's hands."Give it back!" she scolded.In fact, her actions were nothing more than to cover up the embarrassment of not being able to afford a sword.However, to Wang Lingyun's surprise, the Dragon and Phoenix Sword, as if embedded in a boulder, had become so fused that sh

The head guard, a thirty-year-old man who had cultivated in the Jade Tiger Swordsman realm, shouted loudly. His voice echoed throughout the room, making everyone fall silent, full of menace.Eadric Rong, who was just about to give an explanation of what happened, stopped when Wang Lingyun in a sly manner immediately shouted loudly."He started it first! That Taoist intends to take a sword on display that shouldn't be seen in person, under the pretense that he's going to buy it!""Anyone knows that he's just a poor little priest who lives on alms from others!"The head guard then looked away and stared at Eadric Rong with a displeased look.There is a written rule in the Lucky Koi Hall that the displays on the 3rd floor are not to be touched or hand-held.Unless the customer really intends to buy it. Taking advantage of this rule, Wang Lingyun slandered Eadric Rong.In fact, she was the one who already held the Phoenix Dragon Sword but did not buy it because she did not have the money.

The two Silver Moon Sect disciples, Wang Lingyun and Li Yunfeng, felt their faces turn red instantly.Ever since their first encounter with Eadric Rong on the third floor, they had denigrated his reputation, even insulting him as a poor, begging Priest.However, to their surprise, the poor priest was able to pay for the expensive Phoenix Dragon Sword and even gave Chen Yu, the salesperson he thought had served him well, a tip of 10 gold taels.Wang Lingyun and Li Yunfeng could now only remain silent with clumsy expressions, faces bright red and full of shame.Meanwhile, the crowd of people who had previously gathered with the intention of making fun of Eadric Rong were now speechless.Suddenly, there were graceful footsteps coming from inside the room, the Hall of Fortunate Koi. A female figure appeared, walking elegantly like an angel, drawing all eyes toward her.Her appearance resembled that of a noble maiden. She wore a white silk dress paired with green.Tusuk Konde and various g

Eadric Rong deliberately mentioned her name, Miss Murong Lin, because he had heard the whispers from the crowd.This greatly made Murong Lin's face glow brighter. From within the storage on her sleeve, she took out a shimmering platinum-colored token."Dao Shi... The Lucky Koi Hall greatly appreciates your arrival, having spent some money in our humble establishment.""That's why, as the manager of Daqi Branch Hall, we give Dao Shi a platinum membership card.""In the future, if Dao Shi visits Lucky Koi Hall again at any branch, you will benefit from a ten percent discount."Having just spoken up to this point, the atmosphere became boisterous. Whispers ensued, with everyone talking about the little priest who had been bullied and looked down upon as a beggar, but now they were calling Eadric Rong a rich and fortunate little priest.What a hypocrite!"Platinum membership cards are very rarely issued by the Lucky Koi Hall.""Only special, important people from the Palace are treated as

The Secret of The Demonic Artifact/Jimmy-Chuuu
Daqi City, the magnificent capital of the Wriston Empire, was a vast and diverse metropolis.The city is divided into four main regions: North, South, West, and East, each with its own unique characteristics.On the eastern side of Daqi City, away from the bustle of the city center, lies the Moon Orchid Inn.This inn was quite far away from the Lucky Koi Hall, a not-so-famous place, where Eadric Rong chose to stay, somewhat in disguise.At that time, Eadric Rong had just left the Lucky Koi Hall. He looked up and whispered softly."The sky is still clear, and dusk hasn't come yet. Why don't I take a stroll through the Eastern Market, which is also famous for being crowded?"He had a happy smile on his face when he decided to check out the crowds at the East Market.Daqi City is known for having two main bustling centers: West Market and East Market. Coincidentally, Moon Orchid Inn is located not far from the East Market.Therefore, Eadric Rong chose to spend his time there, enjoying th

While carefully stuffing the third mouthful into his mouth, Eadric Rong replied in a calm tone,"The treasure I keep up my sleeve, that's my business. Why are you so curious and ambitious to have it?"At this moment, Eadric Rong raised his face, and he saw the figure standing in front of him. With a sharp gaze, he said silently,"A fighter with cultivation in the late-level Golden Peacock Swordsman realm... no wonder he's so confident!"As we know, a cultivator in the Zircon Tortoise realm freely hides his cultivation realm from other cultivators.This is what made the newly arrived man so confident and intent on looting Eadric Rong, not knowing that his opponent was someone with a cultivation far above his own.In a tone full of contempt, the man said,"Ignorant! Have you never heard of the Undead Villain, from the Hell's Tomb sect? Hand over all the items in your pockets, and this lord will be merciful!"The man with a rough face and a thin, dry posture, who looked as if he was a li
