Chapter 785: Mystic Realm
On the next day, Jiang Yi had woken up very early. Of course, he didn’t go out by himself. Huangfu Taotian and Qian Wanguan had accompanied him while Feng Luan and the others stayed home.
The trio rode the luxurious carriage with four guards. They didn’t enter the Nangong Clan’s merchant association, but they went to a main street behind the merchant association and turned into the main doors of the Nangong Courtyard.
Before they reached the main doors of the Nangong Clan, one of the guards already handed over a name card. The Nangong Clan’s Outer Affairs Supervisor was already waiting to welcome them when the carriage arrived.
When the supervisor saw Jiang Yi and his group alighting, he immediately bowed with cupped hands and had this beaming expression. “Welcome Master, your arrival brings light to our Nangong Courtyard. My clan’s Young Master Muyu has already prepared a feast. Master, Young Master Huangfu, this Lord, this way please!”
Huangfu Taotian nodded indifferently while Qian Wanguan looked at the supervisor with a haughty expression. Jiang Yi didn’t say anything and followed behind the duo quietly. Qian Wanguan looked very arrogant as he was led inside by the supervisor, giving off a ‘Master’ demeanor. Jiang Yi felt like laughing when he saw that.
The Nangong Courtyard was huge, and there was a small plaza inside the main doors. In it was another statue of the Great Emperor Nangong, but it was much smaller and was of normal human size.
Qian Wanguan and Huangfu Taotian paused and took a deep respectful bow towards the statue before they continued to walk arrogantly. Jiang Yi followed suit and bowed as well as this Great Emperor Nangong was the god of the Gods Bestow Tribe. If it wasn’t for him, the 13 Clans would already be eradicated; and the tribe would no longer exist. It was a must to worship and bow to a great person like this.
After the plaza were rows of castles with various sizes, everyone went around the castles at the front and headed to the eastern courtyard. After walking past more than 50 castles, the supervisor finally stopped and pointed to the gates of the castle and said, “Everyone, please enter. This is Young Master Muyu’s Wooden Fish Castle.”
“Hahaha!”
Before Jiang Yi and the others could enter, hearty laughter could be heard from inside. “No wonder Muyu felt my left eyelid thumping so violently on this early morning. I was thinking about what good things are going to happen today? Now I finally understand. It’s because the Master and Big Brother Huangfu have arrived...”
A youth wearing a black embroidered robe walked out with a few female servants. Jiang Yi had met this person before, but after taking a closer look at this person, he couldn’t help but praise of his great looks silently.
Why are all the young masters of the great clans so handsome? She Fei, Wu Ni, Lu Lin, and Huangfu Taotian are all so dashing. They also have an extraordinary and outstanding bearing. All the young ladies of the great clans are also beautiful like fairies...
Doubt appeared in Jiang Yi’s mind, but he understood after pondering about it. Which of the wives of the great clans’ descendants wasn’t an exquisite beauty? After several generations, the genes would naturally be great. These great clans had provided etiquette education since a young age, and they had the chance to experience plenty of occasions. Hence, their bearings were naturally outstanding.
“This is?”
When Nangong Muyu saw Jiang Yi led here by Qian Wanguan while the guards were left outside, he asked curiously. Qian Wanguan laughed loudly and replied, “Young Master Muyu, this is my brother; and his family name is Jiang! Xiao Jiang, hurry up and greet Young Master Muyu.”
Jiang Yi quickly greeted with cupped hands respectfully, “Greetings to Young Master Muyu.”
“Brother Jiang is too polite.”
Jiang Yi didn’t use the Illusion Moon Stone, but he did use the appearance alteration elixir to change his appearance, making him look very normal. Nangong Muyu smiled and nodded without paying any attention before he intimately pulled Qian Wanguan and Huangfu Taotian’s hands inside. He walked and smiled while saying, “Master, Big Brother Huangfu, I have recently obtained some superior Phoenix Plume Leaves. The two of you should have a good taste of it.”
“Hahaha, Young Master Muyu is too courteous. The Phoenix Plume Leaves are the specialty of the Green Lake Island, right? I heard that only 500 grams are produced every year. Big Brother Huangfu, we sure are blessed.”
Qian Wanguan grinned and laughed. It seemed like he had done proper homework in order to take on Yi Piaopiao’s name, and he even researched on the tea leaves of the Gods Bestow Tribe? Huangfu Taotian remained silent, and if Nangong Muyu asked him something, he would just casually reply a few words.
It was the same after entering the castle. Jiang Yi and Huangfu Taotian remained silent while Qian Wanguan and Nangong Muyu were having those meaningless conversations. Jiang Yi got a headache when listening and was also silently feeling lucky that he had gotten Qian Wanguan to replace him. Otherwise, he would have constantly come out for such social interactions which would certain bore him to death.
The tea was great as the fragrance seeped into the lungs.
After one pot of tea was finished, Jiang Yi felt a little impatient as he gave Qian Wanguan a subtle eye signal while the latter understood. Qian Wanguan pretended not to bother and asked, “That’s right. Young Master Muyu, a few months ago, my Brother Jiang Yi happened to encounter with a Young Lady from your clan. That Young Lady had saved my brother’s life once. Could you invite her out so I can personally thank her?”
“Young Lady?”
Nangong Muyu was a little astonished as he asked, “Could I know this Young Lady’s name? You should also know that... my clan has many members.”
Qian Wanguan took a glance at Jiang Yi and explained, “Her name seems to be Nangong Qiling?”
“Big Sister Qiling?”
Nangong Muyu smile bitterly and spoke awkwardly, “I might have to disappoint Master. Big Sister Qiling is a widow and is still keeping a ceremonious watch. According to the clan rules, she cannot meet an outsider by herself. If anyone wants to meet her, it has to be one year and seven months later. This is ordered by my father, and Big Sister Qiling is currently praying and fasting in the inner courtyard’s temple.”
“Oh. Then it is a pity. If I have the chance in the future, I will meet her in person to give my thanks.” Qian Wanguan nodded as though it wasn’t a problem and changed the topic. Jiang Yi’s brows were knitted as he felt a little strange.
Even if Big Sister Bell was a widow and couldn’t meet outsiders alone, but Qian Wanguan had the status of an Art Emperor. If the Nangong Clan wanted to rope in Qian Wanguan, they should be eager for Big Sister Bell to have some ties with him, right? Why wouldn’t they allow her to meet them?
When recalling the returned Purple Soul Bells, Jiang Yi felt even more concerned. He knew that something must have happened to Big Sister Bell, but he didn’t know what had exactly happened. This was the Nangong Clan’s affairs, and if they didn’t want to say, Jiang Yi couldn’t do anything as they couldn’t possibly behave recklessly in the Nangong Clan, right? If they were to infuriate Nangong Yunyi, a single slap from him was probably enough to kill all of them.
After chatting for a moment, Jiang Yi indicated for Qian Wanguan to bid farewell. Qian Wanguan originally had the intentions to ask about the Mystic Realm and get Nangong Muyu to give a token for them to enter for free, but he was interrupted by Jiang Yi in advance.
They had to exploit and take advantage when there was a chance!
Each entry into the Nangong Clan’s Mystic Realm would require one billion celestial stones for two hours. It was expensive, but Jiang Yi had an honorary token which could reduce the price by 50%. Furthermore, he wasn’t lacking any celestial stones; and if they didn’t have enough, he could just produce a few paintings.
After bidding farewell to Nangong Muyu, Jiang Yi and his group headed straight for the Nangong Clan’s merchant association. After entering the merchant association, Huangfu Taotian led the duo straight to the second floor. A supervisor came quickly welcomed them and had cupped his hands from far away. “Master, Young Master Huangfu. Greetings to everyone!”
“We want to enter the Mystic Realm!”
Huangfu Taotian waved his hand while the supervisor quickly led the way. Jiang Yi transmitted a message curiously: “Big Brother Huangfu, where is the Mystic Realm? Could it be on the second floor?”
“Of course not. You will know shortly!” Huangfu Taotian laughed mysteriously. That supervisor led everyone into the huge hall while Jiang Yi got enlightened when he entered. There was teleportation inside.
Huangfu Taotian transmitted a message and instructed: “This Mystic Realm is a special zone. Do not make a fuss when you are teleported in later on. Concentrate on finding a place to sit down and comprehend. It is absolutely safe inside. Don’t worry!”
Muyu is literally Wooden Fish.
This Yi is a different kind of Yi.
