Chapter 87: Emei Sect, Sister Zhou?

“Brother Ji, isn’t that a little too pricey!?”
On the way to the trading hall, Fatty Zhu looked dispirited.
The experience he gained from web novels was completely useless. Instead, Ji Ye saw through his farce.
In the end, the two of them reached an initial agreement of a one to three ratio for Soul Grass and Ruby Crystals.
Ji Ye knew that Twin Dragon Mount was not the only place in the entire City of Humans that possessed items to treat soul injuries.
Furthermore, the fatty could not make a complete decision himself, so he had to discuss with the red-haired woman named Katarina before he could fully determine the price.
…
“This is the trading hall?”
A few minutes later, they arrived at the trading hall and saw a large, circular room filled with “private rooms”.
From the entrance of each room, one could see the attributes of the items that were being exchanged!
However, just as hearing was an expression of “intent”, the visual senses in the Land of Inheritance varied from person to person.
In Ji Ye and Lu Zhishen’s eyes, the trading hall still belonged to the ancient style.
However, in the eyes of others, perhaps what they saw was the style of technology, cultivation, and even magic!
“Wow, even a private room here costs Civilization Coins. The starting price is 50 Civilization Coins.
“Otherwise, I can only find someone’s private rooms to trade. That’s too much of a scam!”
After carefully looking at the “transaction rules”, Fatty said with a pained expression.
“Esteemed guest, that honored guest is already waiting for you in Room 1!”
The blue-clothed waiter was standing at the entrance of the trading hall. He said respectfully when he saw Ji Ye.
“Old Zhu, I’ll be waiting for you in Room 1.”
Ji Ye smiled at Fatty Zhu before following the waiter into a rather luxurious private room.
“Master!”
When he entered, he saw a pale-faced, beardless man with a slightly hazy face. He stood up and greeted him.
“In this trading hall, guests can choose to hide their true faces.
“In fact, you can even choose to have an attendant help you carry out the transaction!”
The waiter explained.
Clearly, Lu Zhishen had chosen to hide his appearance. He was probably not used to Fatty Zhu’s reaction.
“Chief Lu, you have already posted the information, right? Then, let’s start allowing people to enter!”
Ji Ye had no intention of hiding his appearance.
After all, this was the Land of Inheritance, not Earth. There was no need to deliberately conceal himself.
“A piece of bronze essence that can be used for weapon refinement. I want to exchange it for Spirit Milk…”
“An F-1 fragmentary grenade, produced in the Northern Bear country. Quality guaranteed. I would like to exchange for the Red Pip fruit.”
“Superpowers Awakening Syringe. Give it a try. There’s a 10% chance of obtaining superpowers!”
“Biological Virus Bomb. We’re currently researching the T-Virus. If you buy it now, you can have a free upgrade in the future!”
After the Twin Dragon Mount settlement opened for trading, people immediately entered the Heaven #1 room.
Clearly, resources that could directly enhance one’s strength were important to any settlement.
It was sufficiently attractive.
This even included some technological settlements.
The items made available for exchange were an eye-opener.
However, most technology-type items would consume a lot of light from providence to be teleported back to Twin Dragon Mount after the transaction.
Therefore, apart from one or two items that felt very useful, Ji Ye did not agree to the transactions.
After exchanging most of the resources he had brought with him—
“Hehe, Sister Zhou, don’t worry. I have a lot of connections!”
Two women in ancient clothes, one yellow and one green, entered the room. The yellow-clothed girl was about 16 to 17 years old. She spoke with a lively smile.
“Eh, I remember you. You’re Ji, Ji…”
When she saw Ji Ye, the girl’s eyes widened.
“Ji Ye!”
Ji Ye felt a little helpless as he said to his “acquaintance”.
Yes, an acquaintance.
They met during the meeting convened by the Confederation Office for “beta players” who had completed the trial. After the long-haired artistic youth left with a cold expression, a fluffy explosive-haired girl who was chewing gum also grinned and said that her mission was simple!
In fact, even in the Land of Inheritance, the girl seemed to have obtained something similar to chewing gum from somewhere.
“This is my senior sister, an Emei Sect disciple. Her surname is Zhou!”
There were not many beta players in Yang City. Some even failed their missions.
Therefore, after seeing Ji Ye, the gum-chewing girl was clearly very happy. After a simple conversation, she introduced the “hero” who should be from her settlement with a look of anticipation.
“Emei Sect?”
Ji Ye could not help but turn his gaze to the green-dressed woman known as Senior Sister Zhou.
Her appearance was very ordinary. Upon closer inspection, it was slightly hazy. Clearly, she had concealed her true appearance like Lu Zhishen.
Theoretically, ordinary heroes did not have to hide their identity because they were not famous!
Surnamed Zhou, Emei Sect?
There was undoubtedly more than one Emei Sect in Earth’s culture.
For example, the “Emei Sect” of traditional martial arts on Earth was known as the three great martial arts sects of the Central Plains alongside Wudang and Shaolin. Emei Sect was known for spreading its branches.
In literature and movies, there were many “Emei Sects”.
Among them, the most famous was the magnum opus, “Legend of Mount Shu’s Swordsman” written by Tower Lord Huanzhu during the war of the last century!
The Confederation was established after WW3. Back then, in order to promote the fusion of cultures in various countries, they chose this book as a representative of Chidragon literature during the war era and promoted it to the world. As a result, this martial arts book about gods and devils was well spread.
As a result, the subsequent novels were greatly influenced.
Amongst the martial arts genre, authors like Jin, Gu, and Huang were greatly influenced by this novel.
Therefore, even if it was the Emei Sect in martial art novels, the strength of the top figures could reach the Extraordinary stage of controlling their qi and corporealizing their sword qi!
For example, the “Emei Sect” in Jin’s novel, “Heavenly Sword”, the founder, Fairy Guo, traveled thousands of mountains and rivers to seek her lover but to no success. In the end, she attained an epiphany on Emei Mountain and stepped into the “Connate” realm. With the divine sword, “Heavenly”, she leveled a mountain and passed down an orthodox line!
Therefore, any Emei Sect had considerable potential!
