“According to your description, it should be the Forest race.”
Mei Changge thought for a moment. Xu Chu should have encountered the Forest race. After all, in Desolate Forest, other than the Forest race, no other foreign races have the ability to control trees.
Additionally, the Forest race that Xuan Ci encountered had informed Mei Changge that most members of their race could control trees.
“During this period of time, all the soldiers will stay in Green Lotus City.” “Let’s focus on the Forest race before we deal with the Gale Wolves.’
After some consideration, Mei Changge decided that since the Forest race had already taken action, it was no longer appropriate for the soldiers to venture out to guard against a potential Forest race attack on Green Lotus City.
“Don’t worry, my lord. I’ve already made arrangements.”
Guo Jia smiled when he heard Mei Changge’s words.
It was precisely because the Forest race would notice their actions that Xu Chu and the others had to return within seven days.
“I’m glad, Feng Xiao.”
Hearing Guo Jia’s words, Mei Changge nodded in satisfaction.
Xu Chu and the others left first, leaving Guo Jia behind at the Green Lotus Palace.
“Feng Xiao, what do you think of the Great Xia Academy?”
Mei Changge asked.
After all, this matter had really piqued Mei Changge’s curiosity. Moreover, the Great Xia Academy had given him a Great Xia token.
“My lord, do you suspect that the Great Xia Academy is plotting something?”
After hearing Mei Changge’s words, Guo Jia thought for a moment and asked.
“I don’t suspect a conspiracy, but I do believe that the Great Xia Academy has its own motives.”
“My lord, there’s no need to overthink it. Regardless of the Great Xia Academy’s motives, our course of action remains the same—we must advance steadily. Once our faction is established, we’ll have the strength to face whatever challenges come our way.”
Guo Jia smiled. He understood what Mei Changge was thinking.
There were numerous advantages that gave Mei Changge cause for concern. If it were anyone else, they would likely share his apprehensions.
“That’s true.”
Hearing Guo Jia’s words, Mei Changge could not help but smile. Unknowingly, he had actually been a little stubborn.
“In that case, I’ll relax and take it easy.”
After Mei Changge finished speaking, he smiled at Guo Jia and took out the Great Xia Token.
“Feng Xiao, come with me to Great Xia Market.”
“Yes, my lord.”
When Guo Jia heard Mei Changge’s words, his eyes lit up.
Although he had long heard of the famous market, he had never been there.
With that, Mei Changge injected a stream of spiritual energy into the token, and the two of them disappeared from the Green Lotus Palace.
When they appeared again, they were in a noisy environment.
“So this is the Great Xia Market.”
Mei Changge observed the ongoing clamor around him and displayed a look of curiosity.
At that moment, the two of them appeared on the lively street. There were a large number of merchants setting up stalls around them.
There were strange items on every stall.
Some were selling black iron, while others peddled food, and there were even vendors offering peculiar-looking dolls for sale.
“Come take a look, we’re offering Black Rock Essence Iron at wholesale prices!”
“Come check it out! We’ve got a large quantity of Spirit Rice!”
“Puppets of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy are here! Experience the foreign races!”
When Guo Jia heard the words “foreign races”, his eyes lit up. He followed the voice and saw that it was the stall selling strange dolls.
“Feng Xiao?”
Mei Changge looked at Guo Jia with a strange expression.
“Ahem, my lord, let’s take a look around.”
When Guo Jia heard Mei Changge call his name, he couldn’t help but clear his throat. Afterward, he adopted a serious expression and focused his gaze straight ahead.
It appeared as though he hadn’t been the one drawn in initially. Mei Changge followed Guo Jia’s line of sight and noted that the puppets were only of average quality.
“Let’s locate the Soul Emporium. The materials needed for forging the Spiritual Energy Cannons still rely on it.”
Mei Changge smiled and looked around Great Xia Market with Guo Jia.
Great Xia Market was quite spacious. In addition to the various stalls, there were numerous shops, some of which offered low-grade treasures for sale/
“My lord, the Great Xia Market sure is huge.”
After seeking directions to the Soul Emporium, they strolled for more than 30 minutes before coming across the establishment’s sign.
The Great Xia Market broadened Guo Jia’s horizons, and he encountered many unusual things.
“Indeed. If I’m not wrong, this market is in Grade 6 or even Grade 5.”
Mei Changge nodded.
Be it the entire market’s territory or its powerful aura, he also noticed a team of black-armored soldiers.
He actually felt a sense of pressure from the black-armored soldiers.
“Transcendent soldiers!”
Mei Changge was shocked. This was the first time he had seen a Transcendent soldier.
In order to nurture soldiers to the Transcendent realm, he had to own at least a Grade 6 soldier pool. Otherwise, the soldiers would never break through to the Transcendent realm.
This was also the real reason why the Grade 6 soldier pool required special statues.
“Let’s go in and take a look.”
Mei Changge glanced at the plaque of the Soul Emporium and said to Guo Jia beside him.
The pavilion housing the Soul Emporium appeared unremarkable from the outside, similar in size to an ordinary restaurant. Yet, as Mei Changge and Guo Jia stepped inside, they discovered that the interior space was entirely distinct from its external appearance.
It looked to be half the size of a field and there were quite a number of people.
“So it’s a treasure pavilion.”
Mei Changge’s tace lit up with understanding. It was no wonder he had sensed an unusual aura emanating from the Soul Emporium while outside.
“Welcome! Please let us know the materials you wish to purchase, and our Soul Emporium will provide them for you.”
At that moment, a thin figure noticed Mei Changge and Guo Jia and hurriedly went forward to welcome them.
“Do you have red-striped iron here?”
Mei Changge smiled and asked.
“Yes, we have many of them in our Soul Emporium. How many do you want?”
The man asked with a smile. Red-striped iron was not a rare material. The Soul
Emporium had a lot of them.
“I need 10 tons of red-striped iron and some other materials.”
Mei Changge glanced at Guo Jia. The latter took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to the man.
“I’m proud to announce that apart from our Soul Emporium, you won’t find this quantity of materials anywhere else.”
When the man saw the list Guo Jia handed him, a smile appeared on his face.
There were numerous basic materials available, and while they weren’t costly individually, they were abundant in quantity. Contemplating this, the man’s smile grew even warmer.
“I roughly calculated. These materials should cost roughly 16.4 million Great Xia currency. I’ll make a deal with you and remove a zero.”
The man looked at the items on the list and quickly calculated a number. He smiled at Mei Changge and said.
“May I pay with this?”
Mei Changge saw the smile on the man’s face and took out the Great Xia Token.
The man’s bright smile instantly froze.
“This…’
Looking at the pure black Great Xia Token, the man revealed a helpless expression.
“Please wait a moment. I’ll check with my supervisor.”
After saying that, the man left to inform his supervisor.
The moment he saw the Great Xia Token, he knew that it was no longer something he could decide.
After all, those who had the Great Xia Token were the most respected guests of the Soul Emporium..
