Chapter 537.
Wang Dust sat in the tavern for almost an hour.
Later on, there were more and more people, most of them were Topaz disciples like him, and among them, there was no lack of people who were drinking to drown their sorrows.
After understanding the situation they were currently facing, some disciples acted quite pessimistic.
This was actually quite normal, they had managed to escape with great difficulty and ran back to Weifa City, but as a result, the teleportation array was useless.
Trapped in an isolated city, no one dared to guarantee that Weifa City would be able to protect everyone’s safety.
This calamity was different from the previous Yin Wind Tide, the large-scale outbreaks of baleful energy, and the powerful evil spirits that appeared in droves were like a huge stone weighing down everyone’s heart.
All kinds of whining, all kinds of complaints, and regret and chagrin ……
Making Wang Chen, who was in the middle of it, feel like he was completely surrounded by negative energy, he could no longer continue to sit down.
He also didn’t hear any more useful news, so he got up and left the tavern.
Looking for an inn to stay at in the neighborhood.
The result that Wang Chen didn’t expect was that he even looked for a few inns, and they were all declared full.
Even the big bunks were gone!
When he managed to find one that was not yet full, the shopkeeper said that there was only one luxury suite left, asking for 800 spirit stones a day.
Eight hundred spirit stones!
Wang Duan was almost infuriated.
Taking advantage of the fire is not so excessive, although the inn accommodation fees in Wei Fa City are much higher than the Mountain and Sea Realm, but not to such an outrageous point.
To be honest he could afford to shell out these spirit stones and was not willing to be slaughtered as an ingrate.
So he turned his head and left.
That shopkeeper was still shady, saying that there would be no more stores after this village!
Wang Chen was not used to the other party’s temper, the big deal was to find a remote corner to set up a tent, making do for a few days was not a problem.
“Master Immortal!”
Wang Chen had just walked out of the inn when a timid voice suddenly came from the side.
He turned his head and saw a fifteen or sixteen year old teenager squatting there in the corner, the other party was dressed in gray cloth clothes, with his neck and the left side of his face wrapped in a hemp scarf, revealing only the right side of his face.
Wang Dust froze at once.
This was because he recognized this teenager as the very same guide he had hired when he had just arrived in the Netherworld.
The teenager flew up, tilted his head and asked, “Lord Immortal Master, are you looking for a place to stay?”
“Yes.”
Wang Dust nodded, “But these inns are all full.”
There was actually room at this one, but he didn’t want to be slaughtered like a pig, otherwise his thoughts couldn’t get through.
The teenager licked his lips and boldly said, “If Immortal Master doesn’t mind, you can stay at my house for a few days.”
Wang Dust smiled, “How many spirit stones?”
Dare I say that this little guy was here to solicit business, but he was quite business-minded.
The youngster extended a palm, “Five, fifty spirit stones.”
His voice was a little shaky, probably because he was worried that the price he shouted out angered Wang Dust.
But Wang Dust felt it was cheap: “Good.”
Compared to the eight hundred a day inn suite, fifty spirit stones was too conscientious, even if the other party’s family’s conditions were limited, it was still better than sleeping on the streets.
The teenager was instantly overjoyed, “Lord Immortal Master, please follow me.”
Under the teenager’s leadership, Wang Chen passed through half of the city and arrived at an area with densely packed houses.
This place should belong to the civilian area of Weifa City, the houses were generally shabby, and the surroundings were somewhat terrible.
The teenager was apprehensive in his heart, but Wang Dust had no intention of being picky and followed him into a small house.
“Mother, I’m back.”
A woman with a scar on her face walked out of the room at the sound of the voice, and when she saw Wang Dust following the teenager, she revealed a wary and nervous look.
The teenager hurriedly said, “Mother, this Immortal Master Lord is going to stay in our home for a few days, I would like to give up my room, do you think it’s okay?”
A pleading look came out of his eyes.
It was obvious that renting out the room was his own idea and had not been agreed upon by his family.
The scar-faced woman froze, and the look on her face became complicated.
She bowed to Wang Chen and apologized, “This Immortal Master Lord, please forgive the offense of the youngest child’s ignorance, it’s just that the humble room is afraid that it’s difficult to entertain your guest.”
Hearing his own mother say this, the teenager was so anxious that he was on the verge of crying, yet he didn’t dare to argue.
Wang Dust smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter, I’m just staying temporarily for a few days, having a place to stay will be fine.”
Saying this, he pulled out a piece of medium spirit, “Pay the rent for two days first.”
Seeing the limpid spirit stone in Wang Chen’s hand, the scar-faced woman panicked a bit, “Sir, this is too much.”
Wang Chen shook his head and placed the spirit stone on the table next to him.
He said to the teenager, “Show me your room.”
The teenager was overjoyed, “Please follow me.”
The inside of this house was divided into a living room and two bedrooms, the kitchen was hitched outside, and although the rooms were small, they were cleanly organized.
The room the teenager was staying in had a stone bed and a stone table, as well as bedding and pillows and other things.
It was very simple.
But the room had a door, and it was considered a private space with the door closed.
“That’s it.”
Wang Dust was not dissatisfied with anything, and just asked the teenager to carry away all of his own bedding and pillows.
These things Wang Dust of course used his own, he had plenty of new products in his Sumeru Ring.
After thinking about it, Wang Dust took out a few more pounds of spiritual rice and beast meat, fruits and vegetables and gave them to the teenager, asking the latter’s mother to help make a meal.
He said, “You can keep some of this as a reward.”
The teenager was so grateful for this that he was close to kneeling down and kowtowing to Wang Chuan.
After sending the other party away, Wang Chuan took out his living items and simply arranged the room, then sat down to regulate his luck.
Earlier, when he fought against the Fury Spirit, he had suffered a little internal injury, and then fled all the way to Weifa City.
It was not until now that he could heal in peace.
After a week of gongxing and refining the pills he had taken, Wang Chen’s injuries were basically healed.
The Vajra Incorruptible Body brought him a powerful body, and his self-healing ability was much stronger than that of cultivators of the same rank.
The healing had just ended when the door of the room was gently knocked.
But it was the teenager who brought the prepared dinner.
The conditions here were limited, and this dinner was also very simple, but the scar-faced woman’s cooking skills were quite good, and Wang Chen ate all the food without the slightest waste.
With this, he was considered to have settled down for the time being.
For the next two days, Wang Chuan ran to the tavern every day to inquire about the news, and also made a trip to the Sect’s Law Hall.
The results were very unpromising.
The Sect Law Hall’s teleportation array had been completely shut down, not allowing anyone to enter the town hall.
And the Bai Jun real person who was in charge of the Dharma Hall was said to be in seclusion, so Wang Chen and the other disciples were not able to see him.
Meanwhile, more and more evil spirits had appeared outside Wei Fa City, while very few cultivators had fled over, and it was estimated that many had already met with untimely deaths.
What was even more terrifying was that as the Yin Fiendish Qi dispersed, large swathes of Fiendish Qi clouds appeared in the sky above Wei Fa City, and from time to time, Fiendish Thunder rumbled, ringing out like the heavens collapsing and the earth cracking, as if the end was coming.
The atmosphere in the city was tense to the extreme!
