Chapter 269
Cloud Cliff City!
Gah ignored her and walked directly toward the distant city: "Let's go, we should go find some medicinal herbs."
Qing Yanjing stomped her foot on the spot, snorted, and then followed.
But Qing Yanjing probably didn't realize that after being with Jiahe, her emotions were no longer as calm and composed as before, and she was always flustered by Jiahe.
However, this also made her more vibrant, no longer the fairy from the heavens.
Although Qing Yanjing was resentful, she quite enjoyed spending time with Jiahe.
Before long, the two arrived at the huge city gate.
The blue stone city wall, stretching for millions of feet, is engraved with intricate array patterns, exuding a terrifying pressure.
A plaque hangs above the city gate, bearing three large characters: Yunya City!
At the city gate, many rare and exotic mounts pulled luxurious carriages in and out. These people were all descendants and disciples of various powerful forces in the world.
Jiahe and Qing Yanjing, on the other hand, seemed quite ordinary, blending into the crowd and entering Yunya City.
This place is much larger than Bailing City. The array patterns in the city gather spiritual energy, and the air is filled with the fragrance of spiritual herbs, just like in the Yunyao Continent. Ordinary people can prolong their lives by staying here.
The shops on both sides were bustling with people, and the streets were paved with jade, making them look very luxurious.
“This Cloud Cliff City looks very wealthy!” Jiahe said.
Qing Yanjing, who was standing to the side, didn't want to pay attention to him.
Gah glanced at her and said, "What? Still angry?"
Qing Yanjing glared at him with her beautiful eyes, but didn't say anything. She just walked forward.
Helpless, Jiahe stepped forward and grabbed Qing Yanjing's hand, saying, "Let's go, I'll take you to try the delicious food of the Cloud Medicine Continent!"
Qing Yanjing, whose hand was held by Jiahe, blushed slightly under the light veil, but did not break free.
Watching Jiahe lead her through the streets and alleys of Yunya City, and finally learn from others about the most popular restaurant in Yunya City, Yunxianglou, using the Supreme Liquid.
"This is the best restaurant in Yunya City, let's go and have a taste." Jiahe led Qing Yanjing into Yunxiang Restaurant.
Soon a waiter came up to them: "What would you two like to eat?"
"Bring up all the signature dishes, and also get me a private room," Gah said generously.
The servant glanced at Jiahe and Qing Yanjing, and could tell that Qing Yanjing was dressed in extraordinary clothes.
Although Jiahe's clothes looked good, they were ultimately no match for Qing Yanjing's.
Almost instantly, the waiter became even more respectful: "Esteemed guests, please come in!"
Along the way, the servant was very enthusiastic towards Qing Yanjing, but treated Jiahe rather indifferently.
This made Qing Yanjing, who had a cold and aloof expression, secretly overjoyed.
Gah was somewhat helpless. This servant had a very sharp eye and was extremely good at reading people.
He ignored the teasing look Qing Yanjing gave him and casually took in the layout of Yunxiang Tower.
Soon, the servant led Jiahe and Qingyanjing to sit down in the private room, then served tea and left.
As soon as the servant left, Jiahe heard a series of clear, bell-like laughs coming from the side.
Gah asked helplessly, "What are you laughing at?"
"What? That servant seems to have been talking to me the whole time?" Qing Yanjing looked at Jiahe with somewhat alluring eyes.
Jiahe scoffed, "That's because he's after your money. If you want to attract attention, why don't you take off your veil? If you go outside like that, someone might come chasing after you right away!" Hearing Jiahe's words, Qing Yanjing gritted her teeth and kicked Jiahe with her leg.
"Hiss!" Jiahe gasped, turning to Qing Yanjing and saying, "You're really pushing yourself!"
Qing Yanjing crossed her arms, glanced at Jiahe, and said, "Who told you to make me angry again?"
“When we were on Bailing Continent, the Lu family must have already sent word that you were there. Mohe Tian might go to Bailing Continent,” Jiahe suddenly said seriously.
Qing Yanjing looked at Jiahe and said, "It doesn't matter. In any case, they won't know where we'll go in the end. Even if Maha Tian goes to Bailing Continent, he won't be able to find my trace."
Jiahe, however, said, "What if Maha Tian also comes to the Dan God Clan?"
Qing Yanjing asked, "You mean, the people of the Maha Ancient Clan will also participate in the Great Thousand Pill Gathering?"
"What? Your Futu Ancient Clan won't participate?" Jiahe said.
Qing Yanjing shook her head and said, "The Futu Ancient Clan has three lineages, but they are basically unrelated to elixirs. Therefore, our Futu Ancient Clan only has some alchemists to worship us."
"The Maha Ancient Clan seems to train alchemists, but whether they will participate in the Great Thousand Pill Gathering is unknown."
"I don't care about foreign tribes," Qing Yanjing added.
After hearing this, Gahe didn't say anything more.
Before long, the servant came with his men to serve the dishes.
Jiahe asked the servant, "Do you know if there are any auctions in Yunya City recently?"
Upon hearing Jiahe's words, the servant's eyes lit up, and he looked at him, saying, "Sir, are you perhaps also an alchemist?"
In this vast world, alchemists hold a very high status, comparable to spirit array masters.
With the Great Thousand Pill Gathering about to begin, the number of alchemists in Yunya City is now countless.
Jiahe nodded and said, "I'd like to find some medicinal herbs in Yunya City."
The waiter chuckled and said, "Sir, you've come to the right person. Go straight to the end of this main street, and there's a Cloud Pill Auction House. A grand auction will be held tomorrow, and it's rumored that the auction house will have rare medicinal materials like Dragon Marrow."
"As for those rare and exotic herbs, there are plenty of them. If you want to go, you'd better prepare some Supreme Elixir."
After exchanging a glance, Jiahe and Qingyanjing nodded and said, "Okay, go down."
"Please enjoy your meal!" the servant said with a smile, then withdrew.
After the servant left, Qing Yanjing said, "I don't have any Supreme Liquid on me right now."
“Auction houses usually have a barter stage, so let’s go check out the Yundan Auction House later,” Jiahe said.
After their meal, Jiahe and Qingyanjing followed the servant's instructions and headed towards the end of the main street.
After a long time, a tower several hundred feet high appeared in front of Jiahe and Qingyanjing.
The tower was surrounded by a palace-like complex of buildings, and many people dressed in moon-white and cyan robes moved about in the palace.
“Those people are all from the Dan Shen Clan, and they are all wearing the Dan Shen Clan's alchemist robes,” Qing Yanjing said, looking at the people.
Upon seeing these alchemists in robes, Gahe remarked, "It seems that the clothes these people wear are differentiated by rank?"
Qing Yanjing explained, "The moon-white robe is worn by alchemists below the level of a Grandmaster in the Great Thousand World, while the cyan robe is worn by Grandmaster alchemists."
"Of course, there are even higher-level Grandmasters of Alchemy, divided into three grades: Spirit Grade, Immortal Grade, and Saint Grade. Alchemists at this level are revered and worshipped even within the Ancient Buddha Clan." (End of Chapter)
