Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 175: Arriving in the Tianqi Continent
Chapter 175: Arriving in the Tianqi Continent
Zhen Yuan narrowed his eyes as he looked around.
’I don’t see Xiao Weimin and his harem.’ He thought.
At the same time, he noticed that Dongfang Jing and Chen Yi were nowhere to be seen.
’Did they find a chance to leave?’ He wondered but didn’t dwell on it.
While Zhen Yuan was looking around, Lin Xiang was also doing the same.
She saw Li Wenqiang several metres away, and a trace of complex emotions flashed in her eyes.
After the Myriad Treasures pavilion auction, Li Wenqiang messaged her, and Lin Xiang agreed to meet.
When they met, Li Wenqiang wanted to become a Taoist couple, but Lin Xiang refused.
In the end, both took a step back.
Since they were going to the Tianqi continent, they decided to leave everything to fate.
If they met after arriving in the Tianqi continent, they would give each other a chance, but if they didn’t, they would accept that they were not fated.
Looking at the person, Lin Xiang sighed.
’We probably won’t meet again.’ She thought with a wry smile.
However, she wasn’t too conflicted.
Although Li Wenqiang took her first time, her heart was still not with him.
Because of that, she only felt a little loss but no devastating reluctance.
’I wish you all the best.’ She thought, looking at Li Wenqiang with a determined look.
As if sensing the stare, Li Wenqiang turned around and looked at Lin Xiang.
Unfortunately, Lin Xiang was in disguise, and Li Wenqiang didn’t recognise her.
After nodding, Li Wenqiang turned around and waited for the main door to open.
The door opened half an hour later.
Simultaneously, a stream of dense qi rushed into the ship.
"The qi concentration is higher than the Demon Plants Forest." Lin Xiang exclaimed, her disguised face revealing a happy smile.
"Mmh." Zhen Yuan nodded.
The qi density was higher than the Chaos Flame Space, and Zhen Yuan couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
"It’s time to get off." A voice echoed, and the Canglan cultivators began disembarking.
Originally, there were more than seven thousand Canglan cultivators on the merchant ship.
However, after ten years, less than six thousand were left.
Most importantly, the female and double cultivators looked thin and listless.
Lin Xiang shuddered when she saw this.
’It’s a good thing I listened to Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan.’ She thought.
Soon after, Zhen Yuan and Lin Xiang disembarked from the merchant ship.
At first glance, they were in a large city square of about thirty thousand square metres.
The merchant ship occupied one side of the square while the rest of the space was filled with people.
"Whoever joins my food and wines tower can eat delicacies from the seas and mountains." A loud voice shouted, and Zhen Yuan couldn’t help but be attracted.
When he looked over, he saw a plump man in yellow clothes.
The plump man was at the peak of the golden core realm, and from his bone structure, he was three hundred years old.
"Who wants to join the food and wines tower? It’s better to join my inscriptions tower."
"My alchemy tower is the richest. All alchemists are invited to join the alchemy tower."
"What tower? It’s better to join my Myriad Tools sect."
"My Hanging Garden sect will be recruiting disciples in three months. Come to my sect’s booth if you want to join."
"Formation tower..."
Voices echoed in the surroundings, and Zhen Yuan narrowed his eyes.
’This is what Xiaoxu said.’ He thought.
The Canglan continent was the territory of three empires and three academies.
However, there were no empires or academies in the Tianqi continent.
Rather, the continent had three sects and eight towers.
The three sects were the Snow Mountain sect, the Myriad Tools sect, and the Hanging Garden sect.
Similarly, the eight towers were the alchemy tower, the weapons refining tower, the inscriptions tower, the talismans tower, the formations tower, the sword tower, the martial arts tower, and the food and wines tower.
According to Shen Xu, these three sects and eight towers were related to sects and associations in the Tianxuan continent.
"What’s your plan?" Zhen Yuan asked, looking at Lin Xiang.
"I plan to join a sect or tower, but not now." Lin Xiang said, and Zhen Yuan understood.
In her disguise, Lin Xiang was more than four hundred years old, but her cultivation was only the mid-stage of the golden core realm.
Although she could join a tower or sect with such qualifications, her position would not be good.
Considering that, she wanted to cancel the disguise and advance to the golden core realm before joining a sect or tower.
"What about you and..." Lin Xiang stopped herself and subtly looked around before continuing.
"Will you join a sect or tower?" She asked, but Zhen Yuan shook his head.
"My wife and I plan to travel around the Tianqi continent."
"Is that so?" Lin Xiang frowned.
She originally thought they would continue accompanying each other.
However, life was a series of meetings and goodbyes.
Although they were good friends, they couldn’t be together forever.
They had to separate when the time came, and if fate allowed, they would reunite at a destined point.
After figuring it out, Lin Xiang sighed and smiled.
"I understand." She said.
"Okay." Zhen Yuan also smiled.
After that, the two gathered information while moving towards the exit.
Fortunately, because their appearance and cultivation were not dazzling, the recruiters did not specifically target them.
In no time, they exited the square and entered a street.
This street was on the outer reaches of a city, and the two soon saw the city walls and banners welcoming people to the town.
The city was called East Mountain City.
At a glance, East Mountain City was several times bigger than Dragon City.
However, from what Zhen Yuan and Lin Xiang gathered, East Mountain City was only a tier two city and couldn’t compare to tier one cities.
That said, even a tier-two city needed spirit stones to enter.
Fortunately, their arrival point was inside the city, so they didn’t have to pay the entrance fee.
