Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 388 Chaos in Jiuyuan City
At dusk, the huge fiery red setting sun had already half disappeared behind the earth in the sky.

At this time, a handsome young man in black and a black duck were walking together on the wide official road, looking exhausted.

The young man looked into the distance and saw an extremely large and magnificent city, lying there like a prehistoric beast sleeping. Its rugged and majestic aura shocked everyone around.

"Quack, quack, I haven't seen you for more than a year, Xiaoye. You have actually advanced to the Martial King. You really didn't disappoint me." All the way along, I could only hear the black duck talking endlessly.

Ye Xuan frowned, "If you dare to call me Little Ye Zi again, I will boil you. Where have you been for more than a year? How did you find me?"

"Quack, I don't know how I fell asleep. When I woke up, I found that you were no longer in Beiqiong. It was not until the Qiankun Box began to fluctuate not long ago that I found you here." Little Black Wings scratched his head, and was also very puzzled by his sudden fall asleep.

Ye Xuan knew that the Qiankun Box it was referring to was the black box. It seemed that Xiao Hei could not sense the Qiankun Box in the void, and only when he descended to the outside world of Xizhou through the space crack did Xiao Hei sense it again. But this also shocked Ye Xuan very much.

If you have this ability, wouldn't you be able to go wherever you want?

"It's not like the Beiqiong now. Although I have advanced to the Martial King, there must be many strong people in the Jiuyuan City ahead. Let me make it clear first, don't cause trouble for me, and watch your mouth, okay?" Since he couldn't get rid of Xiao Hei, Ye Xuan had to give him a warning, lest the other party cause trouble and then leave, leaving him in vain.

"Yes, it's fine. Don't worry. I've always been very low-key." Xiao Hei raised his chest and hips, nodded and said, "But, I heard from the two brothers and sisters that this city is very chaotic, fighting and robbery are constant, especially young handsome men and beautiful women often disappear for no reason. You must protect me."

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes, what a narcissistic duck.

After a while, a man and a duck arrived in front of the city.

"Quack, this Jiuyuan City is so big!" Xiao Hei exclaimed.

Ye Xuan nodded. Seeing this huge city at this time, he was quite shocked by the grandeur of this city. He was afraid that the city wall must be at least a thousand feet high!
He couldn't help but feel curious and expectant about the things in the city.

The main reason he came to Jiuyuan City was to purchase a navigation token.

Zheng Qing and Song Hong said that if one wants to ride on a giant sailing ship, one must have a sailing token. The token of Jiuyuan City is completely in the hands of the Lord of Jiuyuan City. The number of places is very limited and the price is very expensive. As for how expensive it is, Zheng Qing and Song Hong have no idea because they have never ridden on a giant sailing ship.

Ye Xuan was determined to get the navigation token, but the Lord of Jiuyuan City was a high-level warrior in the Martial Emperor Realm. Ye Xuan needed to think carefully before buying the token from him.

As for the flower girl auction, Ye Xuan didn't take it seriously.

He devoted himself to the pursuit of martial arts.

When they arrived at the gate of Jiuyuan City, there were dozens of people crowded at the gate, most of whom were warriors in the True Spirit Realm, and only a few were in the Martial King Realm.

Those Martial King Realm masters exuded a powerful aura that frightened the people nearby so much that they didn't dare to approach them. They looked superior.

At this time, Ye Xuan had already hidden his aura in the ninth level of the True Spirit Realm, not wanting to attract too much attention.

Although he has advanced to the rank of Martial King, Ye Xuan still adheres to the principle of being low-key and cautious.

As they entered Xiuwu City, they saw the majestic atmosphere of the city, with shops and lofts everywhere, stretching as far as the eye could see, simple yet luxurious. There were warriors coming and going, with all kinds of cultivation levels including True Yuan, True Spirit, and Martial King. Even an old monster at the Martial Emperor level like the head of Qingyun Valley, Ye Xuan saw two of them.

What surprised Ye Xuan the most was that slave traders could be seen at regular intervals throughout the street.

Most of the slaves were female cultivators, with varying levels of cultivation, but most were between the Qi Condensation Realm and the True Essence Realm, all of whom were restricted in their cultivation and imprisoned in animal cages. Some had expressions of fear, some were numb, and some were dazed.

As he walked, Ye Xuan stopped and looked at one of the dozen or so cages on the side of the road.

In that cage was a person with a cold face and cold and numb eyes. He was sitting cross-legged in the cage with a pale face. He was obviously tall and much more beautiful than the other female cultivators in the cage.

Along the way, Ye Xuan had not seen many female cultivators as pretty as this woman.

What really surprised Ye Xuan was that this woman's cultivation was...

She is actually a female cultivator who has reached the Great Perfection of the Martial King Realm! ?
Ye Xuan's heart was filled with shock. How could a peak female martial arts queen be sold so casually like a commodity?

The woman seemed to feel Ye Xuan's gaze. She looked at him with cold eyes, revealing undisguised disgust.

"Hehe, sir, you have a good eye. This is a new item, and the selling price is 30,000 mid-level Yuanshi." A fat man in brocade robe walked over with a smile and said to Ye Xuan.

He is the stall owner here.

Ye Xuan said nothing and walked away. He heard a woman's cold and angry voice behind him: "I am Her Majesty the Queen of Luoyan Kingdom. If you send me back to Luoyan Kingdom in Dongzhou, I can give you 300,000 mid-level Yuanshi...ah!"

An arc of electricity flashed from the frame of the cage and struck the cold and noble woman, causing her to scream in pain, her body trembling, her eyes filled with fear, and she dared not say anything more.

"Gengen, you still want to go back to Dongzhou? Are you dreaming?" The stall owner sneered.

……

"Boom! Boom!" Two True Spirit Realm warriors were fighting on the arena in the center of the street.

"How dare you steal my Thousand Spirit Pill? I'm going to chop you to pieces today!" A man holding a big knife chopped down with a flash of green light.

"Bullshit, I clearly bought that Thousand Spirit Pill from Lingbao Pavilion just now." Another skinny young man held a long sword in his hand and slashed out with it, and the sword energy hissed.

Under the ring, Ye Xuan shook his head and left, thinking to himself that Jiuyuan City was really chaotic. If you were not careful to survive here, you might be eaten to the bone.

Walking on the street, Ye Xuan suddenly frowned.

He walked quickly into an alley, turned around suddenly and grabbed with his right hand. A figure was grabbed from the air and strangled by the neck.

This is a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old. His cultivation is not high, only at the eighth level of Qi Condensation Realm. He is thin and his eyes were originally very smart and he seemed to be very scheming. But now his face changed drastically and he was being pinched by Ye Xuan's neck and lifted into the air.

"Why are you following me?"

Ye Xuan pinched the trembling boy with his right hand and spoke softly, but his calmness, in the boy's eyes, made him feel a strong shadow of death.

The young man's face turned red with pain, and he said fearfully, "Sir, please don't misunderstand me! Is this your first time in Jiuyuan City? I am Wei Wei. Whether you need accommodation or other things, I can help you with it. It only costs ten Yuan stones a day."

The young man spoke clearly and eloquently. Ye Xuan's eyes flashed, and he knew that this guy should be a thug who often does this kind of guiding business.

Ten Yuanshi are nothing to him.

Ye Xuan released his hand that was pinching the man's neck and said, "In that case, take me to find a better inn. Price is not a problem."

Wei Wei touched his neck in fear, he almost felt it was broken just now, he took a deep breath, and then said, "Sir, if you want to say the best inn in this city, it must be Wanxianglou, the environment there is elegant, noble and luxurious, and safety can be guaranteed, but the daily accommodation fee is as high as 100 Yuanshi."

"Let's go." Ye Xuan nodded.

Wei Wei was delighted, knowing that he had met a distinguished guest, and hurried to lead the way.
