It seems like Ming Yu wasn't completely useless. After all, he did have some use.
Ming Yu was stunned when he saw the intimidating gazes of the three of them.
His gaze swept across Lu Jian and the other two. Then, he sneered and fixed his gaze onto Lu Jian: "Are you saying that I'm taking out two thousand Elemental Condensation Pill and helping you pay for them?"
To others, two thousand Elemental Condensation Pill might be a huge fortune, but to be honest, Ming Yu really didn't care about this small amount of money right now.
He himself had already received the highest reward of one hundred thousand Elemental Condensation Pill for the missions in the Ancient Desolation Battlefield, and he also had the hundred million Black Jade that Ming Chenyuan had given him previously. There were even more that, Ming Yu had obtained the Profound Treasure s, precious medicine and pellets worth thirty thousand from the dozen or so Flame Fusion Clan experts that he had killed.
What did a mere two thousand Elemental Condensation Pill count for in his eyes?
If it wasn't for the fact that his endurance was limited and he couldn't breakthrough his cultivation instantly, Ming Yu would have spent all of this money to buy the elixirs of the heaven and earth and thrown it at him, waiting for his level up.
To put it bluntly, if he wanted to complete all of this, he would have to wait for the Pill Heart of Spirit Soul with the Spirit Clan and the will of blessings from all living things to be able to obtain it in such a willful manner …
"That's right. Help us pay first, and when we return, we'll return it to you when we have time."
When Lu Jian saw that Ming Yu was actually throwing his face at him, he immediately felt displeased. He repeated the words again and specifically emphasized the word "advance", which meant very obvious. He was saying: We are not trying to cheat you, we just don't have the money for a while.
But in reality, how could Ming Yu not know Lu Jian's tricks?
This Lu Jian was very kind. Even though he said that he would pay up, he said that he would pay back when he had time. What do you mean time? The meaning behind his words was that as long as I say that I don't have time, I will not return the favor.
Hehe.
Ming Yu also truly admired this Lu Jian. Normally, he didn't use those little brains of his on comprehending the martial way, but he was just making a fuss over such a trivial matter. It was fortunate that he was a strong expert with a cultivation at the fourth level of Core Controlling Stage.
"Where are the two thousand Elemental Condensation Pill? Here."
Ming Yu shook his head and laughed. A large number of Elemental Condensation Pill flew out from his own Black Gold Wrister, and all of them flew into the storage bracelet of holding on the big sized man's wrist.
While handing over the Elemental Condensation Pill, Ming Yu said: "I know that senior brothers and sisters are usually busy, and when I go back, I will not be able to see you guys. You don't need to pay for this money, I will treat you as junior brothers."
Seeing that the two thousand Elemental Condensation Pill had been delivered, Ming Yu lifted Lu Jian's arm that was on his shoulder and took his Dragon-Sparrow of Black Wing to head towards the city.
"Alright, you can go in now."
The man waved to Qin Fann, Lu Jian, and Wang Han, signaling them to go in quickly and collect the admission fees for the tourists.
Lu Jian and the others, who were leading their dazzling flying birds, looked at Ming Yu's back as he entered the city. At this moment, they felt a little awkward.
Originally, they were in high spirits and wanted to let Ming Yu reimburse them for the admission fee, but in the end, Ming Yu's few words somehow made them unhappy.
So decisively gave two thousand Elemental Condensation Pill?
What, showing off his wealth?
Furthermore, everyone could hear the ridicule in Ming Yu's words. His junior brother had already invited the entry fee, if this matter were to spread, wouldn't they lose a lot of face as senior brothers and sisters?
If Ming Yu was to be reimbursed for other expenses, it would seem that the three of them were not magnanimous.
"You want to show off in front of me with that smelly money of yours? I'll take out all my money and I can smash you to death. "
Lu Jian sneered in his heart. Holding his red, orange and yellow rainbow cuckoo, he walked into the city with Wang Han and Qin Fann. Soon, they arrived in front of Ming Yu, leaving Ming Yu behind.
Seemingly to ease the awkwardness just now, Qin Fann brought the topic back on track, and said in a deep voice: "According to my intelligence, this time, a girl of Spirit Clan should be at the center of City of Delight auction in three days, and her Delighted Chamber of Commerce has strict control over the slaves being auctioned. If we were to enter now, it would be impossible to rescue her."
"Of course."
Wang Han also followed up Lu Jian's words, "If we want to save someone, we can only wait until the time of the auction to break through the other side of the wall and snatch a girl of Spirit Clan from her."
"Yes." Lu Jian also nodded: "We'll discuss the details after we find a place to rest. It's not convenient to talk too much outside, moreover, it's useless to be in a hurry, we might as well take a look at what kind of damned place City of Delight is right now."
Wang Han seemed to be very excited, she grabbed onto Lu Jian's arm and said: "Mmm mmm, I heard that the City of Delight Selling Silk Cloth is very beautiful. Lu Jian, accompany me for a stroll, I want to take a look."
The main reason why Wang Han had accepted this mission this time was because she knew City of Delight.
Although there were many criminals in City of Delight, Wang Han was not the least bit afraid since she was at the fourth stage of the Core Controlling Stage. Instead, it was the other points in the City of Delight that attracted her.
Within the City of Delight, not only were there many places to eat, drink, and play, even the trade was extremely developed. Many clothes, jewellery, and other extravagant accessories were all sold.
Wang Han also hoped to buy some good things from the City of Delight. When she thought about being able to crazily shop, she felt a little happy in her heart.
"Mm …"
When he previously promised Wang Han that he would buy something, he was straightforward. However, when he thought about how the city entrance fee was already so expensive, he felt that he would not be able to keep his money anymore …
Qin Fann stroked his black beard, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Then that's it, while we walk towards the center of the city, we will find a place to rest. When the Delighted Chamber of Commerce is around, we will find a place to rest, so that we can observe the movements of all sides in the Delighted Chamber of Commerce and be ready to move anytime."
"No problem."
The two of them did not object to it. After all, Qin Fann was the main member of the team for this mission. They were all following Qin Fann's lead and were very convinced.
Everyone had already made their decisions, and was heading towards the City of Delight.
Ming Yu naturally heard the conversation between the three, and after making a rough judgement in his heart, he was prepared to relax his mood and take a look at just what kind of place the City of Delight was.
As they went deeper into the city, the number of people on both sides of the street gradually increased. The shops in the surrounding area became full of people, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going on the streets.
Ming Yu discovered that most of these people were wearing clothes of gold and silver. Although they were just tourists in the City of Delight, they might be high ranking officials and big figures in some empire if they used this City of Delight.
Because there were both dragons and fishes in the City of Delight, it was inevitable that there would be a phenomenon of plundering wealth. Many people had close warriors following them, and those who walked alone would mostly have the cultivation of the first and second stage of the Core Controlling Stage.
It could be said that everyone who entered had enough means to protect themselves.
Furthermore, in broad daylight, the City of Delight did not permit any acts of fighting or killing to occur.
These criminals and thieves did not want to bother about the grudges in the martial arts world without anyone offending them. In the end, they found that earning money was the way to go, so they all started to wash their face and do proper business.
Therefore, more than thirty percent of the thieves and criminals who opened shops in the City of Delight and only fifty to sixty percent of them came in from the outside to seek a windfall.
And it was because of this that, within City of Delight, everyone seemed to be living in harmony with one another on the surface. All of their insidiousness and evilness were hidden underneath the prosperity.
It is easy for a person to lose themselves in its gorgeous appearance, deep in it, unable to extricate themselves.
Ming Yu walked through one street after another. He realized that the ones who built the most City of Delight were the black market and the merchants that sold luxury goods.
Forget about everything on the black market, those luxury goods were even more outrageous. Not only did they have Profound Treasure s, the ingredients of precious medicine, they also had high level Vicious Beast's fur, and they were meticulously polished to the point that there were even crafts made from the bone and blood of dead experts.
And three types of shops within the City of Delight were the most profitable.
The restaurant, the casino, and the gambling den.
Needless to say, the restaurants were filled with all kinds of extravagant dishes. Not only were the dishes abundant, the beauties were also extremely tasteless.
Due to the fierce competition among the peers, the various services provided in the restaurant were endless. After entering, one would definitely feel a deep infatuation, a great thrill of enjoyment, and everything that had been tried would absolutely not be enjoyed by the outside world.
Of course, the price of the service was outrageously high as well. Some people went bankrupt just for the Spring Festival Gala, and in the end, because they did not have the money to pay back the debt, their hands and feet were broken by the people chasing after the debt. There were even people who paid for it with their lives.
As for casinos, they also played a lot of things, such as dice, cards, and other table games.
The gambling arenas were purely a pair of duels. It was a place where blood boiled and passion surged. Every day, every moment, there were people standing on the stage shouting their victory, and there were even people lying on the ground bleeding, unconscious.
Desire, vanity, greed, brutality...
All of it filled the city. People here called it "extreme joy".
The setting sun had completely set, and night had fallen. The sky was filled with stars, but within the City of Delight, it was bright and colorful. It was a land of bright lights, and it was filled with a feeling of warmth, as well as a beauty similar to poetry.
In front of Ming Yu, Wang Han had already bought a lot of good stuff. The most expensive purple gold silk lotus dress, took Lu Jian one thousand and five hundred Elemental Condensation Pill to buy, plus other jewelry, a total of twenty-five hundred Elemental Condensation Pill. That was equivalent to twenty-five million Black Jade! The more than a third of the savings from the hard work of his task was gone just like that!
It could be seen that Lu Jian's face was dark, as he was feeling very uncomfortable right now …
"Should I buy something to take back?"
Ming Yu suddenly had this thought in his mind. Although it was a bit extravagant like this, but the proper consumption can also slightly improve the taste of life.
He felt that he should first thank his Master Soong Yuanyuan, and secondly, that Meng Ruyan also gave him a present. Although he didn't know what it was, he should at least be grateful.
There were a lot of nice looking jewelry and jewelry here, so Ming Yu believed that they would like it.
As he thought about it, he tied up the Dragon-Sparrow of Black Wing and walked into a relatively spacious and open shop. Looking around, he tried to pick out a suitable item from the myriad of jewelry.
However, Ming Yu wasn't able to find the right thing after a long time of picking. It was too complicated and Ming Yu didn't know how to choose it.
That's right!
Can't I just ask Hei Ji? Women should know the most about women. She definitely knew which was the best choice.
"Hei Ji, are you there?"
Ming Yu asked tentatively. He didn't know if Hei Ji would continue pretending not to hear anything this time.
However, this time, Hei Ji did not fall silent. Her voice was clear and there was a faint trace of expectation in it, "… "Yes, I'm here. What's the matter?"
"You're here. It's good that you're here."
Ming Yu smiled. Hei Ji's silence during this period of time had made Ming Yu really concerned. Seeing her reply, Ming Yu's heart was filled with gratification.
