Chapter 954: Starry Avenue

“The connection of the spatial tunnel between the Star Origin City and the Spirit Luxuriant World would definitely attract a lot of attention. It’s not surprising other people have their eyes on you.” Huang Yu continued.

After the introduction, Shang Xia didn’t wait for Huang Yu to continue asking before describing everything that happened in Star Relay. He didn’t forget to mention what he mentioned to Yifeng, Huang Jinghan, and the other experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

Hearing his suggestion, Huang Yu roared with laughter, “You’re thinking about it too simply! It doesn’t matter whether or not they are willing to share their advancement formulas anyway. Everyone is walking down a different path and even if they are willing to take it out, it’s going to be extremely chaotic when you piece the different parts of their inheritance together. You most likely won’t be able to cross-reference them with each other either.”

Shang Xia simply chuckled in response, “At the very least, we’ll have a chance to improve on them. It’s better than nothing, right? Even if we fail, there’s no substantial loss.”

Huang Yu laughed and no longer harped on that point. Instead, he changed his line of questioning. “Oh right, you seem to have a pretty good relationship with one of the captains of the Star Origin Guards. I heard about the famous Captain Feng. However, the Star Origin Guards are just too special and I don’t have a chance to get close to her.”

“What’s the matter? Are you captured by her beauty?” Shang Xia hoked.

Due to the many interactions they had with each other, Shang Xia was pretty familiar with Huang Yu’s personality. They worked together on multiple missions and ambushes, and Huang Yu definitely contributed a lot to the institution’s progress in one way or another. Naturally, Shang Xia learned a lot about him during their time together.

Shang Xia wouldn’t go so far as to say that Huang Yu was a womanizer who went for every member of the female species he saw, but he was pretty much closing in on the level. Every single time Shang Xia met him, he would have new escapades of women he formed a connection with. He left behind many seeds as well. Some of which were known to the institution, and some he mentioned in passing. However, Shang Xia was sure there were many out there Huang Yu didn’t bother bringing up.

It wasn’t as though Captain Feng Ziyuan was a country-toppling beauty, but at the very least, she could be considered high above the masses. She had a heroic air around her which seemed to attract members of the opposite sex.

Huang Yu didn’t bother denying it. “Of course I won’t give up if there’s a chance. However, there’s another reason behind my desire to meet her.”

Shang Xia turned serious all of a sudden and asked, “What do you plan to do?”

“Actually, I thought of something after seeing how friendly the both of you were behaving. How possible do you think it will be for me to join the Star Origin Guards?” Huang Yu asked.

Completely taken aback, Shang Xia paused for a good moment before shaking his head resolutely. “Impossible.”

He started to bring up everything about the Star Origin Guards he learned from Luo Qi. “Every single Star Origin Guard has to originate from the Star Origin City. Moreover, they would receive training from a young age in order to foster their sense of belonging to the Star Origin Guard. Luo Qi, who has been my guide since I stepped onto the Land of Star Origin, has been thinking of ways to return to the Star Origin Guards after his messy ascension process. His loyalty alone isn’t something that can be replicated by outsiders.”

A strange look appeared on Huang Yu’s face. “Not only did you manage to form a relationship with one of the strongest captains in the Star Origin Guards, you even managed to get a retired Star Origin Guard as your guide?”

Shang Xia chuckled in response, “It was a coincidence.”

“Hmm... Alright, why don’t you find an excuse to introduce me to your guide? I’ll see if I get any chances to pull Captain Feng to my side...” Huang Yu spoke after thinking about it for a moment.

“Are you seriously thinking about becoming a Star Origin Guard?” Shang Xia raised an eyebrow in shock.

“We’ll see... Even if I fail to enter the Star Origin Guards, I should be able to befriend some of their higher-ups. More precisely, those who will become important figures in the Star Origin Guards in the future. That should be enough. Then again, the Emptiness Drifting Mountain should be willing to see that happen as well... They should be more than happy to give me some assistance...” Huang Yu mumbled.

“Wait.” Shang Xia stared at Huang Yu with a suspicious look in his eyes. “How many plans did you come up with?!”

“Hahaha!” Huang Yu roared with laughter before getting to his feet. “Just introduce me to that ex-Star Origin Guard later. You don’t have to care about anything else. 3 days later, we’ll meet outside the Star Relay and I’ll bring you to the Spirit Abundance World.”

Seeing how confident he was in himself, Shang Xia understood that Huang Yu probably planned everything out. However, he couldn’t help but call out, “Wait a moment!”

Huang Yu turned around and stared at Shang Xia in confusion even though he was halfway to the door.

“If you need my cooperation with anything, feel free to ask. Also, you can tell Luo Qi that the problem in his dantian with the chaotic dipper qi doesn’t really need to be cured by a True Immortal. I should be able to do it as well...” Shang Xia added.

Huang Yu’s eyes lit up and he laughed happily, “Alright! That makes things much easier then!”

As the 2 of them left the room one after another, they made their way downstairs. Luo Qi, who had finished another pot of tea, quickly rushed over to greet them.

Currently, Luo Qi’s heart was pounding. He thought that Shang Xia would require a lot of assistance because it was his first time in the Star Origin City, but he didn’t think that Shang Xia would meet with so many people! As soon as he entered the city back then, he met up with the other experts of his world and opened the spatial tunnel. Next, he met someone he was familiar with in the Starry Inn. Luo Qi wondered if Shang Xia truly needed him as a guide.e

However, the person who came to meet Young Master Shang revealed an excited expression while looking at Luo Qi. He rushed up to Luo Qi and asked,, “Fellow cultivator, are you the guide he has been talking to me about? You’re the one who knows a lot about the city, right?”

Luo Qi gasped softly and glanced at Shang Xia before responding, “Yes... You can call me Luo Qi and I’m someone who grew up in Star Origin City. Fellow cultivator, you...”

Huang Yu interrupted before he could finish. With the same level of excitement as before he yelled, “Great, that’s great! I plan on taking up long-term residence in the city and I’m not familiar with anything here. I need someone with actual power to make things easier for me. Brother Luo, do you think...”

Getting over his initial shock, Luo Qi noticed Shang Xia smiling at him. How could he not understand that he had been recommended to be the newcomer’s guide? He revealed an awkward smile and muttered, “Actually, I do have a way to help you. However, I am currently helping Young Master Shang and don’t have too much time...”

Huang Yu didn’t let him continue again as the grin on his face grew wider. He continued, “Don’t worry about it! I’m going to leave the city for a little while before coming back to take up residence. I will definitely need Brother Luo’s help when that happens!”

Luo Qi heaved a sigh of relief as a proper smile returned to his face. “Of course! That’s not a problem at all. I don’t dare to say that I know everything that has to do with the city, but at least I know all the proper rules and most of the unspoken ones.”

A satisfied grin appeared on Huang Yu’s face. “You truly deserve your reputation as an expert who was once from the Star Origin Guard. Since you’re willing to help me, let’s establish a proper way to contact each other. When I return to the city in the future, I’ll be able to quickly locate you!”

After they exchanged a way to contact each other, Huang Yu turned to bid Shang Xia farewell.

After he left, Luo Qi cupped his fists towards Shang Xia. “Many thanks for Young Master Shang’s introduction! Now, I managed to befriend another expert!”

“Don’t worry about it. Everything happened to line up. He told me about his plan to stay here, and I didn’t wish to be troubled by him and decided to introduce you. I have to apologize for not getting your consent before doing so!” Shang Xia laughed.

Waving his hands hastily, Luo Qi muttered, “Of course I won’t blame you! This is my job anyway! I Right... Young Master Shang, where do you plan to go next? Do you have any other things to do?”

Shang Xia thought for a moment before responding. “Is there a place that sells high-level herbs or spiritual treasures?”

“Of course there is! It’s not too far from the Starry Inn. Shall we head over right now?” Luo Qi introduced.

Clapping once, Shang Xia grinned, “Alright! Let me take a look around and widen my horizons!”

As they made their way down the street, they quickly arrived at a bustling row of shops. There were all sorts of pavilions and buildings on both sides, and from the looks of it, they seemed pretty ancient and their names hung on the signboard above. Shang Xia could also faintly feel the presence of many formations or restrictions along each building.

“This is the famous Starry Avenue in the city! Experts from various worlds would gather here to sell their treasures. Not only will you be able to find spiritual ingredients and treasures, you will also be able to find weapons, advancement medicines, and even inheritances! Sometimes, you can even find high-level advancement medicine. They have everything you can think of available!” Luo Qi introduced as they strolled down the street. He pointed out several pavilions along the way as though he was very familiar with them.

After walking down a little more and going into a few shops to look around, Shang Xia seemed to gain a good understanding of the prices and treasures available on Starry Avenue.

Even the random treasures that were on display were treasures of the third rank or above! There were even high-grade artifacts, all sorts of talismans, martial arts inheritances, and even some rank four advancement medicine! Everything could be bought with essence crystals!

Even rank five treasures could be seen from time to time. One could get some ordinary rank five treasures with essence crystals, but more precious ones would only be traded for items of equivalent value.

There were too many treasures on the street and even Shang Xia had to gasp in amazement at the sheer variety.

The Spirit Luxuriant World’s equivalent of the Starry Avenue was the Three Unity Island, and essence crystals would only be accepted for treasures of the third rank or lower. Treasures of the fourth rank would require both essence crystals and other treasures. As for treasures of the fifth rank... One would only be able to trade for them with various treasures and there were rarely any deals being done!

The difference between the Spirit Luxuriant World and the Star Origin City was just too obvious!
