Chapter 1586 – Crystal Clan
In the evening, Xiang Zhili had indeed come, and had talked with Han Li for a full night.
From Xiang Zhili, Han Li learned a lot of information about Cloud City and the Thirteen Clans of the Heavenly Clouds that he hadn’t known before.
It wasn’t until dawn that Xiang Zhili got up to say goodbye.
However, when Han Li sent him to the door, Xiang Zhi Li seemed to have remembered something and suddenly twisted his body, saying with a hint of hesitation, “Senior Brother Han, it’s impossible for me to return to the Human Race. However, it is still possible for you to have this day. If senior brother wants to leave Cloud City one day and go somewhere else, come to me first, okay? I have some things to leave for Senior Brother Han, and one more thing to ask for. But don’t worry, senior brother, as long as I can return to the Human Race, this matter is just a matter of hands to senior brother, and it will be greatly beneficial as well.”
”Oh, what is it that you can’t say right now? I can’t really say. In case I encounter something unexpected, I won’t necessarily be able to make it in time to bid farewell to Senior Brother here.” Han Li was stunned when he heard this, and after a moment’s contemplation, he asked so.
”I won’t hide it from Senior Brother, this matter is a bit inconvenient to talk about right now, and I still need to spend some time to get some things ready. It would be best for senior brother to come by then, or else you and I may both regret it if we miss this matter.” Xiang Zhili shook his head and said with great meaning.
Hearing Xiang Zhili say so, Han Li naturally gave a promise of “I will try my best.”
Xiang Zhili nodded before turning around and leaving the room.
Han Li looked at Xiang Zhi Li and disappeared from the door of the house in a flash, but a trace of color rose on his face. Suddenly, he grabbed the door with one hand, and a huge force was sucked in, and the door made of wood shifted and instantly re-closed.
At the same time, the four walls of the room white haze flooded, a layer of restrictions on their own to stimulate, the entire room are shrouded in it.
Han Li unhurriedly walked to a corner of the room, and sat down again on a futon, his face somehow revealed a faint smile, but his eyes vaguely flickered with cold light, not knowing what he was thinking about.
The next day, Han Li stayed in the house to rest, did not have the slightest intention to go out.
Only in the morning of the third day did the door of the house gently open, and only then did he leisurely walk out from inside.
He did not go to the hall below to find Xiang Zhi Li again, but instead, directly from an exit on this level, he lightly fell down in a single bound to the streets of the Foreigner Inn.
Han Li seemed to have long since figured out where he wanted to go, and casually stopped a beast cart, and after naming a place, the beast cart raced down the street.
Through the windows of the beast cart, Han Li could see everything on the street clearly.
When his gaze once again swept to the huge sphere outside the city wall in the extreme distance, Han Li’s heart stirred slightly.
After last night’s conversation with Xiang Zhili, he naturally knew the true nature of these behemoths. These huge spheres were actually thirteen oversized war puppets, and it was said that their power was so great that they could be worth an early stage Harmonization existence.
The thirteen puppets also happened to be one of the thirteen clans of the Heavenly Cloud Clan that was responsible for controlling one of them.
With such a terrifying war puppet, the strength of Cloud City’s defense can be imagined. No wonder the clouds of the sky will be the city as the center of resistance to the corner of the Chi tribe, at least do not have to worry about the corner of the Chi tribe to send strange soldiers suddenly to sneak attack the city.
Han Li’s eyes quickly retracted from the distant sphere, closed his eyes.
The place he went to was not too far, the beast car just sprinted for half an hour before arriving at a somewhat remote side street.
Han Li casually threw out a few spirit stones before jumping out of the beast cart and looking around.
Don’t look at the street is inconspicuous, but the number of pedestrians on the street is obviously much more than the main street.
The stores on both sides of the street are not large, and the people coming in and out are also quite a lot, business is quite prosperous.
Han Li nodded his head, glanced at a store close at hand in front of him, looked at the plaque hanging on its door, and immediately walked in expressionlessly.
The store was dozens of feet large, surrounded by rows of shelves, all of which were covered with densely packed stone tablets, jade disks, silver medals, and other assorted tome-type things. But all the things are covered by a layer of crystal shining light curtain.
This was actually a store that specialized in selling canonical books.
According to Xiang Zhili, although there were as many stores in Cloud City as there were people, several of the more famous stores that Han Li was interested in were mostly centered on this street.
Now that I’ve taken a look, it really does look like it’s true.
Although the store was not large, there seemed to be a lot of various types of books.
And there are several other foreigners in the store, all looking at something on their own in front of the shelves, all of which are JieDan level existences.
These foreigners seemed to be concentrating on selecting something, and didn’t notice that Han Li, a high ranking member of the upper race, had walked in.
As for the store owner, she was a young female foreigner.
Looks only seventeen or eighteen years old, but the skin is as crystalline as snow, the two ears are pointed, between the eyebrows there is a soybean-sized milky-white crystal, a pair of beautiful eyes is flashing with a deep gaze, giving a person a feeling of great wisdom.
”Crystal race.”
Upon seeing the young woman’s appearance, Han Li was nevertheless startled.
Nowadays, he naturally also had a lot of understanding of the Heavenly Cloud tribes.
The “Crystal Race” was also one of the thirteen races of the Heavenly Cloud. But this clan is very peculiar, not only the clan is surprisingly small, it is said that the total number is only more than a million, and individual strength relative to other clans is also relatively weak. But this tribe is extremely long life, almost three to four times as long as the human race, and each crystal tribe are handsome and beautiful, very high intelligence, almost everyone in the alchemy, formation, talisman, and so on above can easily have very high attainments.
Therefore, the crystal tribe is extremely popular with other tribes, even if they are not interested in competing for power, their ranking among the 13 tribes in the Heavenly Cloud is not low.
That crystal woman also noticed Han Li, a pair of dark eyes to Han Li body after a sweep, face now a trace of surprise, actually seems to see Han Li’s cultivation level.
She immediately got up, walked over, and gave a slender salute:
”Welcome to the upper clan seniors visiting the small store, I wonder what the juniors can do to help!”
The woman spoke in an unusual manner and did not see anything too unusual in her movements, but she gave off a feeling of extreme elegance with every move she made.
As expected, like the rumors, this race was really different from the other foreign races that he had seen in the past.
Han Li tsked in his heart for a moment, but didn’t show any kind of expression on the surface, and only faintly said, “There’s no need to be so troublesome. I’ll take a look at it myself first, and it’s just a matter for you, Fellow Daoist, to get busy with your own affairs first.”
”Then please, senior, watch it on your own!” The Crystalline Race woman nodded her head in an unassuming manner, and without saying anything more to give another salute, she retreated back on her own.
However, this action of the Crystalline Race woman immediately startled those players who were picking through the tomes.
”With a swish, they looked over with surprised gazes, and all of them sucked in a mouthful of cool air.
They naturally couldn’t see Han Li’s realm in the slightest, but that unfathomable cultivation was enough to let them know that the height of Han Li’s realm was simply beyond their imagination.
One by one, these few foreigners became uneasy, some immediately and quietly turned to leave, while others randomly picked out some tomes and immediately left the place in a hurry.
In the blink of an eye, only Han Li and the Crystal woman were left in the entire store.
Han Li turned a blind eye to all of this and walked to a nearby shelf, surveying the various tomes above.
Light from the surface naturally can not see anything, Han Li divine thought, immediately invaded the light curtain to one of the stone piece of a sweep.
These light curtains are really strange, divine thoughts can only see some simple introduction information in the stone piece, want to see the formal information, but vaguely feel the obstruction of the prohibition.
Of course, with his powerful divine thoughts, if he wanted to forcefully invade, these meager prohibitions naturally could not block the slightest bit. But likewise, it was impossible for such a move not to be discovered by the owner of the store. A little bit of status, and who would do such things.
Han Li only looked at a few of the bookshelves in front of him, and found that most of them were introductions to the customs and habits of various races, so naturally he wasn’t very interested. Immediately, his footsteps quickened by a few steps, and his figure moved to another shelf, once again scanning with his divine thoughts.
This time it seems to find the right target, Han Li only looked at two, his face showed a hint of joy to, immediately one hand rushed inside a blue jade disk a beckoning hand, suddenly this thing shot out, to its hands.
In this way, Han Li searched one by one in the store, and in the blink of an eye, collected more than twenty pieces of tome.
Only then did he contentedly walk over to the Crystal Race woman, placing all of the things on the table in front of her, and calmly asking under his breath, “How many spirit stones, I’ll take all of these things!”
The Crystal Race woman looked at the pile of things in front of her and couldn’t hide a trace of surprise on her face. But after a flash of beautiful eyes, she suddenly smiled and said something that made Han Li feel greatly surprised, “These things aren’t worth much in terms of spirit stones, so seniors can just take them.”
”How, do you think I will not be able to pay this spirit stone?” Han Li was first stunned, but then his face sank and he said with a cold tone.
”Of course that’s not what the late generation means. Rather, senior has another item that perhaps senior will be interested in. If seniors want it, these canonical books will be given to seniors even if seniors are incidentally gifted.” The Crystal Race woman smiled sweetly and actually said so.
”Oh, what is it, take it out for now and take a look.” Han Li was stunned and said with a slowed down expression.
”Late generation wait a moment, this thing is more valuable, late generation put in the house.” Hearing Han Li say this back, the Crystal Clan woman wore a slight smile on her face, then immediately turned around and walked towards the inner hall in the store.
Han Li didn’t care either, quietly waiting there.
A few moments later, the woman walked out with a black metal box in her hand.
The surface of the box was even cross-patched with two green-colored charms, a solemn and unusual appearance.
”Seniors take a look at the contents of the box, seniors believe that this item is extremely useful to seniors. Otherwise, the late generation would not have taken the initiative to take it out.” The Crystal Clan woman said with a faint smile at Han Li, as if she knew something.
