Chapter 235.
Yunshan City, was undoubtedly the city Wang Chen was most familiar with.
The original owner was born and raised in this city, and although she later went to the guardhouse to work as a Spirit Planter, she usually used to buy firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy, vinegar, and tea in the city.
After Wang Chen crossed over, he didn’t go to the city less.
The original owner’s divine soul had long since fused with him, yet the memories engraved in the divine soul could not be easily erased.
The city in front of him naturally evoked his memories!
However, Yunshan City was still Yunshan City, but the feeling it gave Wang Chen was already very different.
Things are not the same as they used to be!
Despite his inner thoughts, on the surface, Wang Chuan was like a country boy who came to a big city for the first time, following the crowd to the city gates with a hint of apprehension and excitement.
The current Yunshan City already belonged to the Yunyang Sect’s nemesis, the Guiyuan Sect.
Therefore, those who were at the city gates to collect the city fees were naturally the cultivators of the Guiyuan Sect.
Wang Chen noticed that these cultivators only collected spirit stones and did not check whether the casual cultivators entering the city had road guide tags.
The rules that the Yunyang Sect had realized for thousands of years had obviously been abolished by the Guiyuan Sect.
This was instead convenient for Wang Chen.
Otherwise, applying for a road guide plate would require leaving behind a divine soul aura, and that would undoubtedly be a hassle for him.
Wang Chen also found a reward notice posted on the city wall on both sides of the city gate.
Most of the wanted ones were Yunyang Sect disciples.
All of them had names and identities, and the reward amount was not low.
Wang Chen swept a glance and actually saw his own portrait!
Belonging to him this reward notice, hanging out obviously for a period of time, the wind and rain traces are very obvious.
Just the portrait although that some dim, but his appearance will be painted at least eight points true.
And the reward is not low.
The person who captures or kills Wang Chuan alive will be able to become an outer disciple of the Guiyuan Sect, and at the same time be rewarded with 500 Hoon Points or 20 acres of spiritual fields!
But Wang Chen felt that he was far more than that.
He didn’t move to withdraw his gaze and honestly lined up to enter the city.
The entry fee was unchanged, still one lower spirit.
After Wang Chen paid the fee and entered, he walked on the streets and clearly felt that the city had become more lively.
Probably because the situation had stabilized, or maybe Guiyuan Sect had changed the rules, anyway, the streets and alleys and teahouses were filled with a large number of loose cultivators.
On the contrary, the white-robed cultivators of the Guiyuan Sect were rarely seen, and at most, a team of heavily-armed battle cultivators hurriedly walked through the streets.
The atmosphere of the city was permeated with a sense of lethargy, making it easy for those in it to get upset and irritated, and the heaven and earth’s spiritual qi wasn’t as abundant as it used to be, with some garbage thrown on the ground at the entrance of the market alley.
Such a scene was something Wang Chen had not seen before.
As an outsider, the Guiyuan Sect’s control over the city was undoubtedly still on the surface!
What surprised him was that although most of the stores in the city were still there, the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce and the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion were actually closed!
The Court of Treasures was closed!
Wang Chen felt like he had been hit on the head and almost broke his defense on the spot.
He had traveled thousands of miles around, risking considerable danger to come to Yunshan City, and his main purpose was to purchase a technique.
The Innate Five Elements Merit!
The Innate Five Elements Technique was not a secret technique of the Yunyang Sect, so the probability of purchasing it at the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce or the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion was still very high, and it was only a matter of how many spirit stones it would cost.
Wang Chen now had tens of thousands of lower spirits, and getting his hands on a Spiritual Light Dharma Seed of the Innate Five Elements Technique was definitely not a problem!
But he never dreamed that he would be unable to find the temple door even though he was carrying a pig’s head!
This was strange.
Because the background of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion was extremely deep, it was said that there were branches and outlets in all the heavens and all the worlds, not to mention the district Guiyuan Sect, even if it was the Guiyuan Sect’s upper door and upper clan, they couldn’t afford to be offended.
Hundreds of years ago, there was a very powerful sect in the Mountain and Sea Realm that hijacked the Wanbao Pavilion’s merchant ship disguised as bandits.
As a result, this great sect, which had two YuanYing and hundreds of Jindan, had its mountain gate breached in one night.
The YuanYing of the two True Immortals were dug out!
This incident was known to everyone, and even after hundreds of years had passed, it remained in the memories of countless people.
Even if the executives of the Guiyuan Sect had eaten a bear’s heart and leopard’s guts, they wouldn’t dare to do anything to His Excellency Wan Bao!
After thinking about it, Wang Chen asked an old cultivator who was sitting under the eaves of the porch and basking in the sun, “Senior, may I ask if the Wanbao Pavilion is not open today?”
“Today?”
The old cultivator smiled and raised three fingers, “They withdrew three months ago, they won’t come back later.”
Wang Chen’s heart sank violently downward, “Why?”
The old cultivator smiled without saying anything, only his thumb and index finger were rubbing rapidly.
This was the universal gesture of the heavens and the worlds.
Wang Chen understood it in seconds and immediately handed over a spirit stone.
The old cultivator took the spirit stone, stroked his long beard and said: ”Have you ever seen ants moving before a rainstorm? Wan Bao Ge has their own reasons for withdrawing, do you understand?”
A hint of sadness showed in his pale eyes.
Wang Chen was silent for a moment, then said, “Many thanks for your guidance, senior.”
Another spirit stone was handed over.
As a result, the old cultivator confiscated it.
He waved his hand and walked hunched over into the crowd, quickly disappearing from Wang Chen’s sight.
Wang Chen watched the other party leave, then walked into a nearby teahouse.
The business of the teahouse was good, the guests were seated sixty to seventy percent of the time, Wang Chuan found a seat by the window and sat down, greeting the fellow over and ordering a pot of spirit tea and a plate of dim sum.
He is not hungry, mainly to sit down to think about, the future of their own where to go.
Listening to that old cultivator’s meaning, not just Yunshan City, Wanbao Pavilion had probably withdrawn from the entire Yunyang homeland.
The situation of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce is estimated to be similar.
Thinking of the Yunyang Sect that had ascended to the upper realm, Wang Chen had a not-so-wonderful feeling.
Earlier, when the Yunyang Sect might be in trouble, he ran away to the Mortal Realm, and was considered to have escaped a storm.
But if the entire Mountain and Sea Realm was going to be in trouble, where could Wang Chen run to?
Thinking about it, he could only take one step at a time.
Snap!
It was at this time that a crisp sound attracted Wang Dust’s attention.
Only to see a young fellow covering his swollen face beside a tea table not far from him.
Blood was dripping from his fingers.
A cultivator of the Guiyuan Sect pointed at his nose and cursed, “I came here to drink tea, that’s to give you face, and you actually want to ask me for spirit stones? Blind your dog’s eyes!”
“I’m sorry I’m sorry, he’s new and doesn’t know the rules, you’re a big man ……”
The treasurer of the teahouse rushed over, smiling and saying nice things, and finally stuffed a letter of spirit stones before asking the other party to leave.
And the guests in the teahouse, some cold eyes, some as if not seen.
Everyone seemed to be used to it and numb to it!
Wang Chen paid for the refreshments and quietly left this teahouse.
Then he went out of Cloud Mountain City again.
This city that was once incomparably familiar and now doubly unfamiliar, he would not come back in the future.
There wasn’t any place worth staying anymore either!
