Chapter 492 - Top Talent!
The chief invited Li Xiandao into his house.
"My place is very simple, so please don"t mind." The chief carried a bowl of water over. It was a clean bowl with really clear water.
Li Xiandao smiled and stood up, "Thank you, chief. It is good enough to have a bowl of water to drink, so how can I blame you?"
"Scholar, the land we are on belongs to the North Qi Dynasty." The chief said.
"North Qi Dynasty?" Li Xiandao asked curiously.
"North Qi Dynasty has been established for just 300 years. 300 years ago, they wiped out the last country and under Old Ancestor Xiao, they opened up new land. After 300 years, North Qi covered a dozen states and now has tens of millions of civilians." The chief explained.
Li Xiandao took note and asked, "What kind of factions are there near North Qi?"
"I am not sure but I heard that there are some like Star Celestial Sect, Taixu Holy Land, etc., but those are just rumors." The chief said.
"You went out when you were young chief!" Li Xiandao looked at the way the chief welcomed guests and it was totally different from country people.
"The young feel that since the world is so big, that they would have to go out to take a look. Maybe they will be able to craft a glorious road for themselves. But after spending over 20 years outside, I wasn"t able to gain anything. I even lost my youth, so I decided to come home and live a stable life." The chief smiled.
Li Xiandao drank a mouth as he looked at the chief. His smile was really calm like he had seen through everything. He was once an ambitious young man but now he was the chief of a secluded village.
"Chief, it is time for me to take a leave. Thank you for your drink." Li Xiandao got up and said goodbye.
"Let me send you out." The chief got up and said.
Li Xiandao wanted to reject but the chief insisted, so Li Xiandao accepted it.
From the start until now, Li Xiandao didn"t give the chief any rewards. He just came for water and not here to be a charity to help others.
But the one who received the charity was him who came to ask for water. He asked for water and the chief gave it to him. The chief was the one giving charity to him.
If Li Xiandao gave him a treasure or thank him, then he wouldn"t be asking for water and it would end up as him pitying the chief.
The chief didn"t want Li Xiandao to do that.
But he didn"t need his pity either.
The chief sent Li Xiandao to the entrance. The two of them said goodbye politely before Li Xiandao left.
The chief smiled too and he was in a good mood.
He pa.s.sed Li Xiandao who was lost a bowl of water and pointed him forwards.
He was satisfied.
Li Xiandao got the geographical information that he wanted. This was Great Qi Dynasty. He charged up into the sky at an area where the chief couldn"t see him.
In the sky, Li Xiandao surged forwards really quickly. The wind around him smacked against his body.
But he held up a defensive layer and blocked the furious wind outside. He took out the Nether Purple Mountain"s contract.
The signature on it was different from that of normal people.
The signature was a mark left on a piece of stone and it wasn"t the name of a human.
So, Li Xiandao was just able to sense the rough area but he wasn"t able to lock onto the exact person.
This made Li Xiandao sigh helplessly.
"Slowly. Tian Guangming and the others are breaking through, so I have time to search." Li Xiandao wasn"t in a rush. He had just entered Heaven Sky, so he could take it slow. Anyway, he had a lot of time.
The key was that Li Xiandao had no red watches that he could scatter and he couldn"t bring in new guests.
He had to unlock the sixth mountain to obtain 100 watches. Then he would be able to scatter them and welcome new guests.
"During this period of time, I will just let my men cultivate. Although they improve quickly, it is still not enough in Heaven Sky." Li Xiandao thought to himself.
The strongest one was Blood Dragon and Heaven Heart.
They were at stage three!
They were all around this realm and there wasn"t even a single one at stage five. Li Xiandao thought about it and felt his head hurt.
If he sent them to solve the guests and they met an expert, they would need Li Xiandao to send out a streak of sword energy.
So, during this period of time, the Bank of the Universe"s spiritual energy soared. This was their chance to improve themselves and not be a burden.
Li Xiandao was outside to search for this Nether Purple Mountain.
"This Nether Purple Mountain is within the North QI Dynasty. It seems like I have entered Heaven Sky in a good location." Li Xiandao giggled and flew towards the rough area on the contract.
He was unable to lock onto the exact location and the rough area shouldn"t have been too far away. Li Xiandao could accept that.
He just treated it as a game, a game to search for the Nether Purple Mountain.
In just a moment, Li Xiandao crossed a few states in North Qi and came to a prosperous city before landing.
"Cloud City."
Li Xiandao looked at the two big words on the city wall. They were really eye-catching and the words were really powerful. The name that seemed quite ethereal was actually filled with killing intent.
If someone with low cultivation saw those words, their hearts couldn"t help but jump out in terror.
After they entered Cloud City, they wouldn"t dare to go out of hand.
Li Xiandao walked into this Cloud City and what he saw were all cultivators.
On this street, they were all cultivators and there were extremely few normal people. All of them were the ones who set up stores and opened shops.
The people Li Xiandao called cultivators were people who reached grotto-heaven realm.
People below that were normal people to Li Xiandao.
On the street, most people were above Grotto-Heaven Realm. Most of them were young people with deep potential.
"Are they the young generation of the large factions?" Li Xiandao muttered. He didn"t care much as it had nothing to do with him. He just felt curious about it.
After Li Xiandao walked around Cloud City, he found a restaurant and chose a seat near the window. He ordered a plate of peanuts and four dishes.
He also asked for a jug of wine. Li Xiandao wanted to taste the skills of the chefs in Heaven Sky.
Dong!
At that moment, a bird cage was placed on Li Xiandao"s table. A fat guy carrying a dog leash panted as he sat opposite Li Xiandao.
"Brother, if you don"t mind, let"s share a table. The other seats are taken and your seat is really good. Let me treat you this meal." The fatty was really warm and he didn"t show any courtesy. He grabbed a few pieces of peanuts and tossed it into his mouth.
Li Xiandao looked at him play with birds, walk dogs and at the 11 rings on his 10 fingers. There was jade, gold, quartz...
Anyway, he was really eye-catching.
This... Was a top talent..
