C135 Pingxing

When Xia Ling left, the Ningnan City had already gradually calmed down.

Because he had forcefully swept away the Soong Family of the capital, due to the penetration of the Xia Family, both the Lin Family and the Sun Family did not dare to act rashly.

In addition, those two families had suffered similarly heavy losses in the secret realm. Thus, he did not dare to continue the torture. This caused the entire Ningnan City to enter a period of recuperation.

As for the cultivators from the Xia Family, Xia Yanru didn't carry out too much of a cleaning either.

This was because if these people were also dug out, the entire Xia Family would be completely empty.

The cultivation technique manual that Xia Ling gave her was in fact the basic cultivation technique of the Heavenly Leaf Immortal Mountain. In this system of Super Sect, the Congealing Sword Technique was without a doubt a high-end martial art. With Xia Ling's knowledge and cultivation, if he were to reverse the situation, it wouldn't be difficult for him to deduce the method to enter the sect.

Xia Yanru passed this cultivation technique to a few of the more loyal cultivators in the family. After Song Shengcheng arrived, these people refused to cooperate and left with the alchemist Master Zhu.

But now, Xia Yanru had invited them back again, and had entrusted them with a heavy responsibility. In addition to this manual from the Heavenly Ye Immortal Mountain, it was likely that in a short period of time, the strength of these few people would increase by another level.

Once Xia Xilin's power recovered, his Xia Family would also have the power to continue to stand firm.

If Xia Ling could even find Xia Yanning and bring her back...

Perhaps this family would be able to return to glory.

When Xia Ling left, he did not let anyone from Xia Family send him off. When the sun had just risen, he bid farewell to his sister and set out on his journey.

Although Xia Ling hadn't recovered to his best condition, he was still moving at a fast pace. Because activating the Primordial Spirit's weapon consumed the most of one's mental energy. With his current skill level, the exhaustion in his muscles would only need one to two nights to recover.

In the morning, Xia Ling had already traveled five hundred miles. This was an extremely terrifying figure for Vein Refining stages, and even for Congealing Void stages. However, Xia Ling was still not satisfied. He began to think that once he reached the Congealing Void Stage, he could use the void to float; once he stepped on the Essencial Core Rank s, he would be able to truly fly in the air!

Sigh, it still felt good to be able to fly …

Five hundred kilometers to the north of Ningnan City was the intersection of the three great paths of Southern Region. It was a rather important transportation hub, a town called Ping Xing City. This Pingxing City was a city with Southern Region second only to Ningnan City. Relying on the traffic that went in all directions, the business travel flowed in a torrent, and it was especially prosperous.

Compared to the depths of the Ningnan City, there were many differences in terms of aristocratic families. At first, Pingxing City wasn't an important city. However, it had become more prominent in recent years due to the accumulation of business. The merchant caravan in the city was extremely famous in the entire Southern Region.

The buildings in the city also reflected the rich characteristics of this city.

The main road of Pingxing City was spotless, and it was even wider than Ningnan City. There were luxurious carriages and horses everywhere, and the curtains of the windows were all made of extremely expensive brocade. The streets were decorated with heavy eaves and tiles. Even ordinary shops could be compared to the great mansions of aristocratic families with Ningnan City.

At the south side of the city, there was a tall white building. At the moment, it was full of guests. This place was the famous restaurant in Pingxing City, the Jiangtong Restaurant, and the famous high class place that had the entire Southern Region.

It was known for the delicacy of the dishes and the high price they were priced at.

Even the wealthy merchants would not eat here. It was usually a very rare business occasion, or an extremely important family gathering, birthday feast, and wedding banquet. Only then would they grit their teeth and walk in.

Even so, Jiangtong Tower was still bustling with business. Just the flow of water every day was enough to make any noble family envious.

It was all pure silver!

Today was the same.

Liu Xiaolai was an ordinary maid at Jiangtong Restaurant. Every waiter in this restaurant was a young and beautiful girl like Liu Xiaolai. In terms of beauty, she wasn't inferior to the young miss of an aristocratic family.

She wore a light white jasmine dress, and her long hair was gently tied behind her back, giving people a fresh and elegant feeling. This was also the style of Jiang Tong Tower, without a trace of frivolity.

However, anyone with a good eye could see that this long skirt and even the plain hair ornaments on the maid's head were all comparable in value to a thousand gold coins! The more this was the case, the more the low-key rich people favored her.

Liu Xiaolai had just been hired into the Jiangtong Building this month. Every maid in Jiangtong Restaurant received training for over a month before they took up their post. In work, the requirements are stricter. If he made the slightest mistake, he would be kicked out of Jiangtong Hotel.

Liu Xiaolai cherished this hard-earned job. She did not have a wealthy family. Her father was very ill at this time of the year, and her family was in a very difficult situation. And the Jiang Tong House's generous treatment could be said to be the lifeline of this family.

In recent days, she had been working very carefully. Afraid of making a mistake.2

After serving a table of guests and ordering dishes, she walked out of the private box to take a small rest. The high price of the dishes on the menu made the young girl speechless. Every dish, even the most ordinary stir-fry, was worth half a year of their own expenses!

At this moment, Liu Xiaolai, who had just taken a deep breath, noticed that another customer had arrived at the door. She quickly greeted him with an impeccable smile. Just as he was about to say something, when he saw the 'customer' clearly, he was stunned.

This "guest" looked a little too small.

He was clearly no more than twenty years old and had a pretty face. Although the clothes were neat and tidy, it was clear that they were the clothes of an ordinary family. Although Liu Xiaolai hadn't worked here for a long time, her eyes had already been trained to a high degree of accuracy.

Her embroidery eyebrows creased. Why is the child here as well?

With the consumption level of Jiangtong Restaurant, not to mention the children of ordinary families, even the rich and powerful young masters would not dare to come to eat it. Even if they did come, it would be a very important occasion. How could he be like this child, coming alone?

Liu Xiaolai was most likely a child who came from outside the city so she did not know about Jiang Tong Tower's fame. If he ate a meal here, he would probably be eaten for the rest of his life.

However, the youth did not have this sort of awareness. He looked around the grand hall with great ease and walked inside with great interest. She even turned around to glance at Liu Xiaolai, as if wondering why she didn't follow them.

Liu Xiaolai sighed softly. She felt that it would be better if she reminded this child.

"Little brother," She bent down and took hold of the youth's hand, carefully and quickly pulling him to the side, "you are not a native of Pingxing City, right?"

The teenager asked curiously, "I am not." What's wrong? Isn't it the Pingxing City people who aren't allowed to eat? "

Liu Xiaolai smiled helplessly. "It's not that you don't want to eat, but this Jiangtong restaurant's price is too high." This girl was indeed kind-hearted. She was even afraid that the other party wouldn't believe her. She opened the menu and let him take a look.

"I'm not lying to you, am I? "A dish costs dozens of silver taels. Who could afford it?"

She had thought that after hearing this, the other party would retreat in fear. I thanked myself and left. Unexpectedly, the young man in front of him only lightly smiled.

"No problem, take me to the room."
