"Is it any of your business where I go?" Qi Tianyu's footsteps did not stop.2
"Wait a moment, you've offended one of our family members. When they wake up, they won't let you off." If you want to remain in Shang Ling City, I advise you to leave quickly. " Xu Qian's words came from the bottom of her heart. She didn't know why, but she was a little regretful towards what he had done just now. Xu Hua and Xu Shi had always been tyrannical in their Shang Ling City, so after suffering such a huge loss today, they would definitely not let Qi Tianyu off.
"You're worried about me. Forget it, there's no need." Qi Tianyu could tell from her feigned indifference that she was sincerely advising him. However, he was not the kind of coward who would flee out of fear of revenge.
Qi Tianyu walked far away, but Xu Qian still stood at her original position and did not move for a long time.
Qi Tianyu wandered around the Shang Ling City for a long time, but didn't encounter any other accidents. Fortunately, there were many inns here and there, so he casually found one that looked pretty good and entered.
"Sir, may I ask which family you are from? "How long do you want to stay here?" As soon as Qi Tianyu entered, he was warmly welcomed. After all, almost everyone in the city was a familiar face, and it wasn't easy for him to get a new face.
"What do you mean? Does which family I come from have anything to do with me staying in an inn? " Qi Tianyu did not understand that he was only staying in an inn.
"I'll tell you this, we have our own unique rules here. If you want to live here, you have to clearly explain your identity and what you want to do, or else we won't casually take you in."
Although the shop owner's attitude was still good, his tone was full of estrangement, as if Qi Tianyu did not explain himself and did not let him in.
"Then you have to tell me your rules first, or else I won't tell you my family and where I came from. "Oh, that's right. Speaking of which, I would like to ask you guys why are there so many inns?" In reality, when Qi Tianyu first entered, he already wanted to ask this question, but there was no one that could answer him.
"Since you can come in, you should have a token to enter as well. I'll be honest with you then, although we don't have any outsiders here, there will be many people coming to the tavern to take part in some major events. This way, it'll be more convenient for them to live here together." However, if there are usually no major events, this inn is merely a place for eating and chatting. It is rare for people like you to casually come in and stay at this place. " The shop owner thought about it for a while, then decided to tell him the truth. After all, it wasn't a secret.
"Do big things happen often in this city? You even need some people who don't live at home to gather at the inn? " Qi Tianyu did not understand the situation in the city, so he continued to ask.
"We have at least three grand ceremonies here every month, and every grand ceremony will be presided over by someone from that place. Afterwards, we can look for the person with the best Immortal Arts s to date inside the Shang Ling City." The shop owner continued to explain, since there was nothing to do, he decided to take a seat and explain everything to Qi Tianyu.
"Who do you think they are over there?" Could it be the Wooden Square City? And you said you want to find the best person in the Immortal Arts, what do you want to do after you find this group of people? " The shop owner's words aroused Qi Tianyu's extreme suspicion.
"Of course not, how could the people inside the Wooden Square City be worthy of that title? I don't know where the people I'm talking about came from, but they will regularly come here to help us manage this ceremony, and I can tell you, don't ask about their origins. I can only tell you that those people's Immortal Arts are extremely strong and are not on the same level as us." The shop owner scoffed at Qi Tianyu's words, and said mysteriously.
"Do you know where they came from? "When did they start coming to you?" Qi Tianyu felt that this group of people had something to do with the Vermillion Bird he was looking for.
"I already told you not to investigate their origins, how could I possibly do that? As for when they started coming here, I don't know. Since I was here, they've come here three times a month. " The shop owner shook his head and lowered his voice, secretly signalling to Qi Tianyu not to ask any more questions.
"Then about the person you mentioned was the person who is searching for the strongest person in the Immortal Arts, you can tell me about this matter now, right?" Qi Tianyu also understood that it was not easy for a shop owner that he did not know to tell him so much information, so he decided to not ask anymore, and changed the topic.
This is also the reason why our inns exist, as long as it is a candidate that is related to the strongest Immortal Arts, they will stay in the various inns in the city, and then, they will all be protected by the people there. After a few days when they fight, this competition will choose the strongest person in the Immortal Arts to get first place. The shop owner, who did not have much to hide, spoke frankly about this matter.
"And what was the point of the election? And why three times a month? Could it be that the person with the strongest Immortal Arts will change so quickly in one month? " Of course, Qi Tianyu knew that cultivating was an extremely slow process. Even if he was extremely talented and slow, let alone an ordinary person, how could he change people three times within a month?
"That is something I did not say clearly. After they choose the strongest person in the Immortal Arts, they will temporarily bring him away, and only ten years later will pass before they send her back. They said that they will bring them there to properly nurture and nurture them." The shop owner was stunned for a moment before reacting to the other party's question.
"You said that they will take away the most powerful people in your city and they will take away three people in a month? Then how could you trust them and let them take away the most talented people in your city? Would those people agree? And their families have no objections? " Qi Tianyu felt that this matter was completely inconceivable, how could anyone be willing to leave their hometown just because of the Immortal Arts's power?
It's just a temporary departure, and after a period of time, they will return. Although it sounds like a long time, to cultivators, it is just a short period of time, and if you think about it, after a short period of time, they will be able to return, their Immortal Arts will increase by multiple folds, so why not? The shop owner also looked at the guest in disbelief, feeling that the other party's thoughts were incomprehensible.
