Chapter 478: The Bandits That Answer Every Question (2)
“In the room,” Lan Ming said lightly. Alas! It was time for him to return to Windless City.
“Damn girl, you ran away pretty quickly,” Lan Tao said furiously. That girl took so much money from the elders of the Lan family and ran away without giving him any share as a partner. How infuriating!
“I’m going back to Windless City too.” Lan Ming left after bidding farewell to them…
Half a month later.
Leng Ruoxue and the others finally arrived at Myriad Mountain City.
Leng Ruoxue and the others looked at the towering mountain range not far away standing at the foot of the mountain. There were three words engraved on the mountain peak, ‘Myriad Mountain City’. They were abnormally excited.
“Lass, these are all mountains! Where is the trace of a city?” Old Man Zao looked at the tall mountain in front of him and asked in puzzlement. Wasn’t the Myriad Mountain City a city composed of mountains?
“Haha, won’t we know once we go in? There’s a small road into the mountain. Let’s go!” Leng Ruoxue pointed at the only entrance into Myriad Mountain City.
“Okay, let’s go in and take a look!” everyone said excitedly. The place recommended by the little old man shouldn’t be bad.
Leng Ruoxue and the others walked along the small road and into Myriad Mountain City. They realized that even though Myriad Mountain City was composed of tens of thousands of tall mountains from the outside, but inside, the Myriad Mountain City was similar to an ordinary town. Similar shops stood in great numbers, and it was extraordinarily bustling!
However, both shops and inns were built at the foot of the mountain. In other words, the mountain above the shops and inns also belonged to their sphere of influence. It was indeed as the little old man said, almost all the businesses in Myriad Mountain City were in the hands of the five major forces because Leng Ruoxue and the others had seen the labels representing the five major forces the most along the way!
“Do you need a place to stay?” The waiter stopped Leng Ruoxue and the others and asked as they passed by an inn.
“Thank you. We won’t stay in the inn,” Leng Ruoxue declined politely.
“Are you new to the city? It’s getting dark. You will encounter bandits if you walk further in,” the waiter reminded them.
“Are there many bandits in Myriad Mountain City?” Old Man Zao asked curiously.
“Of course! There are at least 8,000 bandits in our Myriad Mountain City if not 10,000. There are so many that it’ll scare you to death. I don’t think you’re all that strong. Why don’t you stay here for a night and find someone to be your partner in the morning tomorrow before walking in!” the waiter reminded very kindly.
“Since there are so many bandits in Myriad Mountain City, can staying here guarantee our safety?” Leng Ruoxue probed.
“Of course. Our inn is owned by the Ni family, which is ranked second among the five major forces. Those bandits won’t dare to come at all,” the waiter said with a face full of pride.
“Is that so? Please don’t listen to him. This is the safest place in Myriad Mountain City. Those bandits won’t cause trouble here at all!” A tall middle-aged man with a full beard said.
“Oh, I see,” Leng Ruoxue said with a spurious smile. In fact, they didn’t intend to stay here even if the middle-aged man didn’t remind them.
“Damn it, how dare you ruin our Ni family’s business! You must be tired of living!” the waiter roared angrily. More than ten people ran out of the inn and surrounded the middle-aged man after he roared…
“Are they about to start fighting?” Leng Ruoxue asked with a face full of curiosity. Alas! These people’s tempers were really too bad. They actually wanted to start fighting after just two sentences!
“Move aside first. I’ll deal with you later!” the waiter in the inn roared fiercely.
“Hehe, how do you intend to deal with us?” Old Man Zao asked curiously. He thought this person was not bad when the waiter reminded them just now! Why did he seem like a different person in such a short time? Uh! His attitude changed too quickly!
“Hmph! You have to stay in this shop even if you don’t want to!” the waiter roared with a fierce gaze.
“Ah, so the second-largest inn owned by the Ni family is a black shop? I just found out today that there are actually people forcing others to stay in the shop,” Old Man Zao couldn’t help but laugh.
“That’s right! The Ni family is too much. How can they force others to insist on staying here!” One of the spectators couldn’t help but say.
“Zhao Jun, this has nothing to do with you. Get lost,” the waiter scolded angrily when he saw the person speaking.
“What? Can’t I speak on the Zhao family’s territory?” The man named Zhao Jun couldn’t help provoking. Then he deliberately jumped in front of his shop.
Upon hearing their conversation, Leng Ruoxue raised her head and looked at the shop behind Zhao Jun. It was also a guest shop, facing the inn where the waiter stopped them. It seemed that their two families should be rivals in Myriad Mountain City! She just didn’t know that the Zhao family was ranked among the five major forces in Myriad Mountain City!
“Are you sure you want to fight me?” the middle-aged man surrounded by the waiter and the others said lightly.
“Hmph! No one in Myriad Mountain City dares to ruin our Ni family’s reputation!” the waiter roared furiously. He had already said it. Wouldn’t he be laughed at to death if he didn’t fight!
“Alas! Since you want to fight so much, I’ll fulfill your wish,” the middle-aged man said very reluctantly. Then the aura on his body changed as if he was a different person. The aura all over his body was released, causing pressure to rise instantly!
“Erm… you…” The waiter stammered, his legs trembling non-stop. He knew that he had kicked an iron plate today. This man, who looked a little sloppy, was not a pushover. Boohoo… What should he do? Who could save him!
“Little Snowy, this man is a Mystic Supremacy,” Icy whispered as it lay in Leng Ruoxue’s arms. However, this man was not very strong. He should have just advanced to Mystic Supremacy not long ago.
“Oh.” Leng Ruoxue looked at the middle-aged man in surprise. It seemed like one really couldn’t judge a book by its cover! No one could tell that this man was a Mystic Supremacy just by looking at his appearance!
“Senior, please show mercy. I’m willing to bring him to apologize if he was rude to you!” a young man suddenly said.
