697: 696: First Encounter with Long Jingqi 697: 696: First Encounter with Long Jingqi “Desolate Ancient City is now your responsibility.
I am giving you two tasks: first, you need to re-establish order within the city according to our rules; second, I will grant you command over twenty thousand Immortal Soldiers, which should be more than enough to deal with any ergencies,” Tang Feng granted Lin Jingxian considerable authority.
“As for the third and fourth tasks, you’ll need to discover them on your own.
I won’t involve myself.
You can have a good talk with them.
I believe you will find it fruitful.
You can fully trust the people in this hall, there’s no need to be apprehensive as they will also execute your orders without question.”
“I fear I may not be up to the task.”
“With their assistance, managing a city shouldn’t be difficult.
You should have confidence in yourself.
Doing well, the reputation of Desolate Ancient City won’t be too shabby,” Tang Feng said.
What could Lin Jingxian say?
She could only accept.
“This is Qiao Yin; I’m entrusting her to you.
Take good care of her and teach her well.” Tang Feng deed his arrangent complete.
Whether Lin Jingxian would beco a butterfly or a phoenix was now up to her performance.
At noon, Tang Feng didn’t say much while dining with the two won, only reminding them that if there was any danger, they must return to the City Lord Mansion as quickly as possible.
If they don’t make it in ti, then use the compulsory Teleportation Talisman I gave you.
It could be said that Tang Feng took extra precautions to ensure the absolute safety of his won.
In the case of Lin Jingxian, Tang Feng truly hadn’t developed any particular feelings, and his protection of her was also because of her Master Shang Ningxue.
He had a premonition that it wouldn’t be long before he t this Hong Yan again, but whether she would still be like she used to be was unclear.
After arranging everything, Tang Feng directly teleported back to the Sword Emperor’s Tomb Palace, which had already been converted into Tang Sect.
This ti, he returned to completely transform it into a Sect while also beginning the infiltration of Tang Sect from Desolate Ancient City into all regions of the Immortal Realm.
His requirent was to subtly establish a foothold, aiming to complete the deploynt in the Northern Domain within a few years.
For this purpose, he established the Dan Hall, Artifact Hall, Cultivation Technique Hall, and various Resource Halls, and he opened dicine Fields, gradually perfecting the entire Sect’s internal system.
Once the foundation was established, he also opened up a Secret Realm for trials, where Tang Feng not only introduced a large number of Immortal Beasts but also various high-grade Immortal Artifacts and Cultivation Techniques.
He did this to maintain everyone’s ambition.
A Sect that continuously maintains a sense of urgency and ambition would indeed be strange if it didn’t beco strong.
A month later, Tang Feng finally relaxed a bit, and Su Keyi was appointed as the Great Elder.
Temporarily, there was no Sect Master position, but when Tang Feng left, he entrusted the Sect to Su Keyi.
After all, she also had nothing better to do, so it was good training.
She knew she could not refuse.
And the reason for Tang Feng’s departure was because sothing in Desolate Ancient City had caught his interest.
Wushuang City was hosting the Hundred Cities Competition of the Northern Domain, which was a significant event in the Immortal Realm.
There were competitions for the Spirit Immortal Realm, Profound Immortal Realm, and Golden Immortal Realm levels.
Participants could challenge higher levels.
If they succeeded, they would receive rewards for that level and might co to the attention of the Great Sects, and potentially join a Great Immortal City, such as Wushuang City, Hundred Domain City, Thousand Island City, and so on.
In short, securing a place in the top ten presented a major opportunity.
Even if it was just a chance to join so dium-sized Immortal Cities, many were unwilling to let it pass by.
After all, Immortals were as common as hairs on an ox, but true powerhouses were few and far between, limited by resources and Cultivation Techniques, making the once-in-a-century Hundred Cities Competition a beacon of hope for many Immortals.
Especially for the sons and daughters of family clans, many hoped for instant success and to leap through the Dragon Gate.
The major families of Desolate Ancient City were busy preparing their children for the journey.
On the square, an Immortal Boat from Wushuang City waited there.
And Lin Jingxian, now that she was the City Lord of Desolate Ancient City, found herself with the inevitable task of receiving the Wushuang City envoy.
Fortunately, the envoy this ti was also a woman—noble, elegant, and with the aura of a noble lady.
One important reason for her being chosen as the envoy was her relationship with the Wushuang City Lord.
His sister.
The reason she ca to Desolate Ancient City was simple—she had once trained here, so she wanted to revisit the old place.
When she saw Lin Jingxian, she was quite surprised.
As a woman herself, she was delighted to et a female city lord.
After all, she didn’t want to be looked down upon by n, harboring a strong heart deep within.
Often, she felt that won could do better than n, hence, she got along well with Lin Jingxian.
When the ti ca to leave two days later, she was reluctant.
“Sister Jing Qi, I’ll make sure to visit Wushuang City when I’m free.
Don’t pretend not to recognize then,” Lin Jingxian said with a smile.
“Just because both our nas contain the character ‘Jing,’ sister won’t forget you.
I have few friends, and now with you as one of them, how could I forget?
Alright, it’s getting late, I should set off now,” Long Jingqi replied with a laugh.
The Immortal Boat set sail, carrying nearly ten thousand people from Desolate Ancient City.
This Immortal Boat had a total of eight levels, with more than a thousand people on each level.
As for the topmost level, that was where the envoys and guards stayed.
The lower one’s cultivation, the lower the level they occupied.
In the Immortal Realm, such hierarchical concepts were ingrained deep into the bones, and people would automatically abide by them without being taught.
Tang Feng, being a Golden Immortal, moved into the eighth level.
This level had fewer people, with less than two hundred, making it appear quite empty.
With nothing else to do, Tang Feng simply started selling things.
He set up a vending machine at the entrance, arranged the Spiritual Wine on it, and then marked the prices for exchange with first to fourth-grade dicinal materials.
At first, naturally, nobody was interested.
Tang Feng thought of a classic example from Earth, smashing a wine bottle, so he also smashed a wine jar, and imdiately, the fragrance of wine filled the air.
In no ti, the entire eighth level was perfud with the scent of wine.
This tactic proved to be effective, and soon many Golden Immortals stepped out of their rooms, including the won.
When they saw that one dicinal herb could exchange for a bottle of Spiritual Wine, their hearts gave a fierce thump.
Such shrewd business.
Daring to set such prices.
Nevertheless, there were Golden Immortals who bought it.
For alcoholics, dicinal materials were far less important than good wine.
Moreover, Tang Feng’s Spiritual Wine was even tastier than Immortal Wine, and sure enough, once soone took the lead, the sales of Spiritual Wine surged.
In the blink of an eye, it was sold out.
Many Golden Immortals who didn’t manage to buy any realized what they had missed.
However, soon after, Tang Feng introduced Immortal Brew, processed it a bit, and turned Spiritual Brew into Immortal Brew.
Doing business like this, not making a profit would be strange.
Once the Immortal Brew was available, the Female Golden Immortals emptied their stock of dicinal materials.
Of course, after tasting it, they had no regrets because it was worth the exchange, and it was also a good choice for gifting.
Tang Feng hadn’t expected that a simple move to kill ti would bring in so many dicinal materials.
He threw them all into the Elixir Pond, and shortly after, they beca Immortal Pills.
If this scene were to be known, who knows what consequences it would cause.
Tang Feng didn’t even tell his closest associates.
Fortunately, his alchemy skill had already reached the peak in the Immortal Realm and concealing it was effortless.
All in all, this trip seed quite rewarding.
Tang Feng was in a good mood.
Suddenly, a thought struck him—should he clean out the lower levels as well?
No sooner said than done, Tang Feng placed vending machines on every level.
So tried to seize them, but Tang Feng swiftly killed them.
With this demonstration of his power, everyone else quickly settled down.
However, because Tang Feng had taken action, he was brought to the ninth level by two Golden Immortal Guards.
Long Jingqi had beco aware of Tang Feng ever since a Golden Immortal Guard brought her a bottle of Spiritual Brew.
At first, she was just curious, but when she heard that he had killed a Profound Immortal, her curiosity intensified—what gave a re Golden Immortal the gall to be so presumptuous on the Immortal Boat?
