Seeing the change in Lil’ Red’s expression, the princess became even more interested. This little red bird was definitely the cub of some kind of spirit beast.
Moreover, from the looks of it, its quality should be quite high.
The princess looked at Ou Yangming and coldly asked, “Pretty boy, didn’t you hear what I said?”
Her voice was cold and clear, and she did not take Ou Yangming seriously at all.
The young man who looked like a rich young master beside the red-clothed lady also shouted sternly when he saw that Ou Yangming did not move, “B*stard, aren’t you going to do as the princess said?”
“Yes, it’s your honor that the princess took a fancy to your thing. Hurry up and hand it over!”
“If you hand it over, I’ll teach you a lesson.”
The few young men on the black steeds either berated Ou Yangming sternly or watched the commotion from the side.
They smiled and did not care about the gazes of the surrounding people.
The commoners who had been injured by the black steeds looked at the few young men with fear on their faces. They were angry but did not dare to speak.
“Are you planning to rob me in broad daylight?”
Ou Yangming’s expression did not change. He raised his head to look at the few of them and calmly said.
“Hahaha!”
The youths on the black horses laughed out loud. They looked at Ou Yangming with ridicule.
“So what if we are? No one in Beishan City dares to meddle in our business.”
“Do you know Princess Aoshuang’s identity? In Beishan City, there’s nothing that the princess can’t get.”
While the others laughed, the red-dressed lady’s eyes flashed with coldness. She looked at the uncooperative Ou Yangming and flipped her wrist. A horsewhip tore through the air and headed in the young fellow’s direction. It cleaved down on his head.
This whip was vicious. If it was an ordinary person, even if one was not killed, one would be heavily injured and fall to the ground.
Ou Yangming’s eyes flashed with a cold light. “You’re so vicious at such a young age. I’ll teach you a lesson on behalf of your family today.”
With that, he raised his hand and easily held the whip in his hand. He exerted a little strength with his arm. The red-clothed lady on the steed flew and fell to the ground from the air.
Ou Yangming’s strength was not something a little girl could compare to. The red-clothed lady was only an Advanced Spiritualist. Among these young people, she was considered pretty good but as compared to Ou Yangming, the difference between them was like Heaven and Earth.
“Plop!”
A loud sound was heard as the red-dressed lady fell to the ground. Her hair was messy, and her face was covered in dust. She looked like a beggar.
“Young Lady Aoshuang!”
“Princess!”
…
The young people on the steeds thought that the young lady could easily teach that young fellow a lesson. They did not expect such an accident to happen.
Aoshuang’s identity was shocking. She was the daughter of Beishan City’s governor. If anything were to happen to her, everyone present would be held accountable.
Thinking of this, those rich young masters did not dare to hesitate. One by one, they pulled out their magic weapons and charged at Ou Yangming.
These people came from the privileged class of the city. The rules of the city were ineffective to them.
The red-dressed lady got up from the ground and looked at herself. She had a grave look on her face. When had she ever been treated like this?
Lil’ Red stared at the steeds that were charging at him and Ou Yangming. He whispered to the young fellow, “Leave them to me.”
As he said this, he released a trace of the Phoenixes’ aura.
The steeds that were charging toward Ou Yangming in a frenzy suddenly became terrified when they sensed Lil’ Red’s aura.
How could low-grade spirit beasts like them be able to withstand the pressure of the Phoenixes? Moreover, Lil’ Red’s strength had reached the law boundary.
The steeds that were charging at them fell to the ground and did not dare to move. The young people on the horses were not in a good situation either. They had not expected such a turn of events, and all of them fell to the ground from their horses.
“What happened?”
“What happened!”
These rich young masters had never encountered such a situation before. They had been smashed by their horses until their faces were bruised and swollen.
When they raised their heads again, they realized that the young fellow had disappeared.
A row of city guards in black armor rushed over from afar.
These city guards thought that someone was causing trouble, so they ran over to take a closer look. All of their faces were filled with shock. The general among the city guards hurriedly said, “Greetings, Princess.”
Half of the face of the originally dignified and beautiful princess was swollen, and her body was covered in dust. If the general had not taken a closer look, he would not have been able to recognize her.
“Trash!” The red-dressed lady’s face flashed with a cold light.
The city guards did not dare to make a sound.
“Why are you standing there? Go and catch those b*stards!” The lady shouted.
The city guards left in a hurry and chased in the direction where Ou Yangming had disappeared.
3 streets away.
Ou Yangming walked quietly by the side of the road. Lil’ Red had hidden in his sleeve. This time, he was not as ostentatious.
“Lil’ Ming, what are you afraid of? You should’ve taught those b*stards a lesson just now.” Lil’ Red’s heart was filled with resentment. He had just made his move when Ou Yangming took him away.
Ou Yangming smiled. “What’s wrong? They took a fancy to you. Shouldn’t you be happy? Doesn’t that show that you’re charming?”
“Those guys wanted to take me? They’re dreaming. They’re not qualified at all.”
Lil’ Red was still very arrogant. At least, other than Ou Yangming, no other human could be taken seriously by him.
Ou Yangming said in a deep voice, “Forget it. We’re only staying in this small city temporarily. There’s no need to have a conflict with them.”
His goal was to go to the Mystic Sky Sect, which was in the Mystic Sky Immortal City at the center of the Zhenwu Continent. It would be a long journey.
The main reason Ou Yangming stayed in this place was to refine a flying boat. This way, it would be much more convenient to travel.
To refine a flying boat, he first needed to get the design. The materials were not a problem as he still had many of the materials he had accumulated from the Hidden Dragons Island.
The design of a flying boat was not a secret. It could be bought from a large-scale Chamber of Commerce.
Ou Yangming asked a passerby for the largest Chamber of Commerce in the city. He then headed there with Lil’ Red.
After a few hours…
“We’re here.”
Ou Yangming looked at the building in front of him. The 5-stories-tall building was eye-catching. Each floor was about 10 meters tall.
There was a huge signboard hanging on the door. The words “Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce” were written on the signboard.
The Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce. This was the purpose of Ou Yangming’s trip. This was the largest trading place in Beishan City.
Indeed, the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce was very famous in the Zhenwu Continent. It could be ranked in the top 10 among the chambers of commerce in the continent. The one in front of Ou Yangming was just a small branch in Beishan City.
In such a large-scale Chamber of Commerce, flying boat designs were surely traded. There might even be more than a type of flying boat.
There were all kinds of flying boats. There was no fixed standard.
Ou Yangming walked in.
There were many people in the hall on the first floor. There were countless treasures inside. These treasures were clearly divided.
The Pills Section, the Magic Treasures Section, the Spiritual Medicines Section, the Materials Section…
Everything that one could imagine could be found here. Of course, the prerequisite was that one must have spirit coins.
This was a paradise for the rich. With money, one could do whatever one wanted. One could buy whatever one wanted such as magic treasures, spiritual herbs, pills, and even beautiful women…
Without money? If one did not have money, one could only get lost!
Ou Yangming did not have a lot of spirit coins, but he had precious materials and magic weapons, which were more precious than spirit coins.
After walking around for a while, Ou Yangming found that the things on the first floor were of a lower grade. He spotted a Ruler who did not stop at the first floor and directly walked toward the second floor.
Ou Yangming also walked upstairs.
However, he was stopped when he went upstairs.
“A White Silver Member?” Ou Yangming was stunned for a moment. One needed to be a White Silver Member to go upstairs.
What was a White Silver Member?
When the 2 guards saw that Ou Yangming did not even know what a White Silver Member was, they had looks of contempt on their faces.
The Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce was famous in the Zhenwu Continent. The level system was not known by everyone, but most people still knew about it.
A person who did not even know about a White Silver Member would not be a powerhouse, let alone a disciple from a clan.
The guards looked down on Ou Yangming but as a member of the Chamber of Commerce, they still explained dutifully, “White Silver Members are precious guests of the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce. Only those who spend 100,000 high-grade spirit coins here or those who have traded a lot with us are qualified to become such members.”
“Spend 100,000 high-grade spirit coins?”
Ou Yangming exclaimed in surprise. It was a high requirement.
He only had a few hundred high-grade spirit coins in his pocket at the moment. The amount requested by the guards was too big.
Ou Yangming did not force it. He asked in a deep voice, “I plan to buy a flying boat’s design. Do you have it on this floor?”
After hearing what he said, the guards looked at Ou Yangming in surprise. ‘Could we have been mistaken? Is this young fella a rich young master? Otherwise, why would he ask to buy such a high-end item?’
They looked at each other, then one of them said, “A flying boat’s design is a high-end item, so it certainly isn’t available on the first floor. If you want to buy it, you’ll need to go to the second floor. You can find a White Silver Member to bring you up or pay an extra 100 high-grade spirit coins to us to buy it for you.”
“How much does it cost then?” Ou Yangming asked.
“30,000 spirit coins.”
The guard said the price, then he looked at Ou Yangming and asked, “Don’t tell me you don’t have any money at all?”
A person who could take out 30,000 high-grade spirit coins at one time would have become a White Silver Member already.
Ou Yangming smiled bitterly. “I really don’t have the money, but I have treasures that’ll amount to that value. They’ll be enough to exchange for spirit coins.”
As soon as the 2 guards heard the first sentence, they did not care about what he said after that. ‘He came to buy things without spirit coins. Isn’t he teasing us?’
“Hurry up and leave. If you don’t leave now, don’t blame us for being rude.”
The 2 of them looked at Ou Yangming aggressively.
At this moment, a few people walked down the stairs. When they saw what happened, they frowned and quickly walked down.
