Chapter 209: Northern Plains City
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Northern Plains City was thousands of kilometers away from the Northern Ice Fields.
However, this city was also the closest to the Northern Ice Fields.
The environment of the Northern Ice Fields was too harsh. The spiritual qi was thin and the temperature was extremely low. There were also all kinds of powerful ice-element magical beasts roaming around.
Therefore, no one could not build a city near the Northern Ice Fields.
Even though they were thousands of miles apart, the temperature in the Northern Plains City was also much lower than other cities.
However, it was still within the tolerance of martial cultivators.
As for mortals?
There were very few mortals in this city since the harsh environment forced the natives to move out of the city.
The mortals who stayed behind all had family businesses in this city that they could not move at will.
The Northern Plains City did not belong to any other sect and the City Lord’s Manor of the Northern Plains City was the only overlord here!
As the city closest to the Northern Ice Fields, it naturally had powerful strength to build a city here.
Therefore, Northern Plains City was considered a giant faction in the Northern Region.
It was just that there were no benefits or conflicts with other sects and factions, so very few people knew.
At this moment, the restaurants and hotels in the Northern Plains City were already filled with people.
The owners of the taverns and hotels were overjoyed.
There was no other reason, in the depths of the Northern Ice Fields, a divine item was suspected to have appeared!
The various sects in the four regions had all arrived and treated the only city near the Northern Ice Fields as their encampment.
As a result, the price also rose.
To the large sects and factions, this price was nothing.
However, to the rogue cultivators, they could only sleep on the ground.
At this moment, in the Northern Court Restaurant.
This was the largest restaurant in Northern Plains City.
At the same time, it was also personally controlled by Northern Plains City Lord’s Manor.
Originally, this place was only used to receive people with power. But now, it was only used to receive people from powerhouses.
Therefore, in the Northern Court Restaurant, the Hidden Sword Sect, Hidden Dao Academy, and the various powerhouses were all gathered here!
Of course, there were also other factions which came from the four domains.
The City Lord of Northern Plains City naturally received this news and personally came to the Northern Court Restaurant to receive these people.
It would be greatly beneficial to him if he could befriend these forces.
At night, the Northern Court Restaurant was brightly lit.
The huge banquet hall was filled with wine tables.
The banquet hall was divided into three levels.
The first level was the widest, but the people sitting here were relatively weaker and of lower importance.
Even though they were slightly weaker than those on the second and third levels, being able to be in the Northern Court Restaurant meant that this faction was much stronger than the other factions outside.
Those on the second level were slightly stronger and those on the third level were where the top factions were located.
For example, the Hidden Sword Sect, the Hidden Dao Academy, and the Buddhist Sect.
At this moment, Bei Ling, the owner of Northern Court Restaurant, who was also the only son of Northern Plain City’s City Lord, stood in front of everyone, he smiled and said, “My father is still dealing with the city’s matters and has sent me here to receive the seniors. Please forgive him.”
The people on the first floor immediately smiled and waved their hands.
“I understand, 1 understand. The matters of the City Lord are complicated. He has to constantly pay attention to the situation in the Northern Ice Fields for the safety of Northern Plains City. It’s quite tiring.”
“The son of Bei Feng has also grown up. I heard that his talent is not bad!”
“There are talents in every generation. From now on, it will be the world of you young people!”
The people on the second floor only gave a symbolic response.
As for the third level?
They didn’t even look at Bei Ling.
Even though Northern Plains City was a giant faction of the Northern Region, it did not carry enough weight in the central region.
Moreover, the third level was basically filled with the top forces of the central region!
Bei Ling was filled with hatred, but he couldn’t let it flare up.
The other party’s fist was bigger after all. Only those with bigger fists had the right to ignore others.
After sorting out his emotions, Bei Ling said with a smile, “Everyone’s expenses today will be borne by Northern Court Restaurant, we’ll also bring out the ice plain wine unique to Northern Plains City. Everyone, feel free to speak your mind!”
The factions on the first level responded politely again and began to talk.
There were only two topics to talk about.
First was their purpose in coming to Northern Plains City. It was because of the divine item deep in the Northern Ice Fields!
“I wonder what divine item appeared to cause such a huge spiritual qi storm.”
“Yes, the spiritual qi in the Northern Ice Fields is thin to begin with. It’s not enough to supply five Qianyuan Realm experts to fight inside.”
“However, for such a huge spiritual qi storm to be born, it’s obvious that there must be a divine item or inheritance!”
The people on the second floor were a little worried.
“I’m afraid only Void God Realm experts have a chance to enter the depths of the Northern Ice Fields.”
“Yes, the Qianyuan Realm experts are traveling alone. Not to mention the harsh environment, there are also countless Void God Realm magical beasts inside.”
“At that time, we can only follow behind the Void God Realm experts of the giant factions in the central region.”
“I’m afraid we can only drink soup.”
Only giant factions in the central region and a few ancient factions in the four territories had Void God Realm experts.
As for those Void God Realm experts, they had long stopped asking about mortal matters and entered seclusion to cultivate.
However, the appearance of the divine item this time meant that they might come out of seclusion.
On the third floor, the Hidden Dao Academy and the Hidden Sword Sect had long formed an alliance.
The two sides sat together.
Dean Yan and Lin Rufeng were talking.
“This time, I’m afraid it will attract many old monsters.”
“That’s right. Let’s look at the Sunset Monarchy. Who would have thought that the Old King was still alive and had broken through to the Void God Realm?”
Dean Yan’s expression was a little solemn as he said, “Speaking of this, the Old King of the Sunset Dynasty is still missing. I don’t know where he’s hiding.”
Lin Rufeng sneered when he heard this: “I’m afraid he has already arrived at Northern Plains City, that vengeful old monster will not let this matter rest.”
Dean Yan nodded. “When the time comes, you have to be more careful.”
And the second point of discussion was something that had shocked everyone recently.
The last empire in ancient times, the rebuilding of the Cloud Phoenix Empire!
The person who rebuilt it was the last empress at that time, the Cloud Phoenix empress!
On the first level, Bei Ling sat in front and took the initiative to start this matter. He smiled insincerely and said, “I still don’t know what the seniors think about the Cloud Phoenix Empire.”
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
This topic was too sensitive.
The Cloud Phoenix Empire was the absolute ruler of ancient times because there was a Great Empress among them.
Now that it was rebuilt, one family was happy while others were sad.
Some agreed, while others were unwilling.
Of course, only a very small number of people agreed.
At this moment, on the third level, someone sneered and said, “Cloud Phoenix Empire? The current Cloud Phoenix Empire’s strength is far from what it is now.. How is it possible to return to their peak from the past?”
