Chapter 527: Chapter 380: Comparing Three Stores_2
“Soy milk and fried dough sticks here~”
“Spicy tofu pudding~ Spicy tofu pudding~ Everyone in Great Xia eats spicy tofu pudding~”
As a few people were talking, they were attracted by the cries of a street vendor.
“What is this spicy tofu pudding?”
“I know tofu, it’s a food from a local indigenous power called Xia, and I’ve seen it sold on the streets in our area.”
“A small remote place can’t have anything tasty.”
A young man in a blue robe hesitated before speaking, “I seem to have heard that Xia Country and the Fentian Giant City had a war and even won.”
The woman in green couldn’t help but snicker, “Huan Su, you look quite cute when you’re seriously spouting nonsense.”
“I’m telling the truth.”
The woman with the curled lips suddenly grabbed a passing Beast Tar, “Hey, I heard you guys are fighting with Xia Country? And you lost?”
The grasped Beast Tar, tall and ferocious looking, glared at hearing this, but upon seeing a few expressionless Beast Tars behind the woman in green, a hint of dread flashed in his eyes, and he quickly left.
Seeing that the man did not argue back, a flicker of surprise crossed the woman’s eyes. She wasn’t foolish, could it be… Huan Su was telling the truth.
Interesting, so Xia Country might just be the new master of the Fentian Giant City.
The last ti a change of power happened in ninety-nine giant cities was over four hundred years ago. What virtues and abilities could Great Xia have.
“Let’s go, don’t forget our purpose this ti.”
An old man who had been silent spoke up.
He commanded great respect; as soon as he spoke, everyone else quietened down.
The team headed towards the outskirts of the city.
After they left, the group of silent street vendors by the roadside then started talking.
“These people are obviously from big families from other giant cities.”
“Definitely, you could sll that scent from a mile away.”
“They must be here because of that Divine Country.”
“Business in the city has been much better lately, all thanks to the Divine Country. I hope this Divine Country lasts a while longer.”
While the vendors in the city chatted, the team had already headed out of the city and were riding beasts flying towards Divine Country.
This here is the Golden Fla City, the closest city to Divine Country in the Fentian Region; many from the Exotic Region co to Divine Country via Golden Fla City.
Outside Divine Country, not far away, a mountain peak had been artificially sliced, its side smooth and clean as if cut by an external force.
The wall of the mountain bore an inscription in the language of the Exotic Region— “Gods dwell in Divine Country, entry strictly prohibited.”
If one knew Great Xia culture, they would find this statent very familiar.
“Interesting, do you think there are really gods? I feel like they just don’t want us entering Divine Country, so they deliberately left this ssage.”
“Hehe, definitely, if there really were gods in Divine Country, why haven’t they shown any miracles for so long? Even gods need faith,” confidently stated the woman in green: “So there’s only one possibility, there are no gods inside Divine Country.”
“This barrier outside Divine Country is very tough, ordinary thods can’t get through,” stated a bearded elderly Beast Tar in the group, who approached the crystal barrier and touched it.
He then summoned a beast to try and damage the barrier.
Of course, they were unable to destroy it.
Other Beast Tars also summoned their beasts to attack the barrier of Divine Country.
Not even a ripple stirred on the pale purple mbrane’s surface.
Its toughness was beyond imagination.
“No wonder it’s called the Divine Country barrier; it’s just as tough as the rumors say.”
“I guess the locals think we have no way in, so they just left that text outside. Anyway, no one can get in to verify their claims.”
“Definitely, I heard that the Ascension Beast Tars from Great Xia once managed to get inside, they must have a way to enter.
If there really were gods, how could their people co out unscathed? I guess they just don’t want to share the thod with us,” remarked soone confidently in the crowd.
The silver-haired old man leading the group said indifferently, “No matter, if none of us can get in, so be it, but if the Xia people have gotten inside… they won’t be able to hoard it themselves, we won’t allow it, nor will the countless Beast Tars from the other ninety-eight regions!”
The old man’s tone shifted, “If they are willing to cooperate with us, we wouldn’t mind collaborating, easing so of the burden.”
“Elder ng speaks highly,” praised the other Beast Tars.
The group retraced their steps, then took the Teleportation Array of Golden Fla City to enter the territory of Great Xia.
They then sought out the official personnel of Great Xia, disclosed their identities, and asked them to notify the appropriate authorities in Great Xia.
The official personnel arranged for them to stay in a luxurious guest reception area within Longbei City.
Here various advanced modern anities fascinated the group like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, overwhelming their senses.
While feeling amazed, they also felt inexplicably pressured.
“Will they co?”
“They will definitely co,” ng Fengye said nonchalantly.
Because he was not just an Ascension Beast Tar from the Phantom Dream Giant City.
He was also the Supre Elder of the ng Family, representing the ng Family of Phantom Dream Giant City.
This Divine Country had fallen, and those coveting the treasures within the Divine Country were certainly not just them.
Now, Xia Country definitely needed allies, and both emotionally and logically, they had to et with him.
Reassured by ng Fengye’s confident statent, the other Ascension Beast Tars from Phantom Dream Giant City slightly relaxed.
Honestly, they initially looked down on Xia Country.
Believing themselves to be from the ancient and prestigious Phantom Dream Giant City, they considered Xia Country a remote and insignificant place, rely specializing in the trade of chanical crafts and clever contraptions.
Fentian Region had truly declined, to have their Giant City breached by people from such a small place.
But upon arriving in Longbei City, the modern skyscrapers, the unending grand palaces, and the dazzlingly lit never-sleeping city at night, all provided a strong visual shock.
“The houses here actually light up at night.”
“The restroom here actually slls nice! And the walls, the floors are so white.”
“The TV programs are really interesting.”
From initial disdain to genuine admiration, it only took one day.
Many modern inventions are made to serve the lazy.
No one can resist these things.
Even ng Fengye had to admit that the products of Xia Country were indeed interesting; if they were willing to cooperate with him, he could agree to lift so restrictions on their products, allowing more goods to enter the Phantom Dream Region.
Although so rchants had brought Great Xia’s products to Phantom Dream Giant City, the city had previously imposed many restrictions on these products.
Then three days passed…
The delegation from Phantom Dream Giant City continued to stay in Longbei City.
But the high-level officials of Xia Country had yet to arrive.
This caused ng Fengye so loss of face, mainly because he had made a claim earlier in front of the younger mbers.
Just then, a worker from the guesthouse ca over.
“Ascension ng, General Ying is waiting for you at the Imperial General’s Residence.”
“General Ying?” ng Fengye felt sowhat dissatisfied in his heart.
After all, he was an Ascension himself; shouldn’t the King of Xia Country be the one to et him?
Instead, it was a general.
However, he had heard of this General Ying, who was also an Ascension, but not the top leader of Great Xia.
Soon, ng Fengye followed the guide to the Imperial General’s Residence and t the General Ying referred to by the staff.
Upon arrival, ng Fengye saw a dozen familiar faces.
He recognized several of them as Ascensions from other regions.
In that instant, ng Fengye understood everything.
No wonder he had not been seen these past few days; they had been waiting for others.
A group of Ascensions, who generally had diocre relationships, awkwardly greeted each other.
ng Fengye thought to himself, Xia Country indeed had a clever strategy.
Originally holding unique goods, now they were comparing three markets.
So many Ascensions had co at once, all from different factions; it seed that Xia Country intended to “sell” the Divine Country at a good price.
