Chapter 772: Arriving at Moon City
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Three days later, the envoy from the State City finally arrived. The leader was a powerful Third Tier fighter, looking very young, with flowing long hair and delicate features. If he hadn’t spoken, Zhao Yu would have thought he was a woman.
“Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Xu Chang Qing, and I’m from Qian City…”
Zhao Yu nodded. Qian City was the state city above Moon City. The eight state cities were divided according to the Eight Trigrams, and their names were said to trace back thousands of years.
“My name is Zhao Yu, King Slayer Rank Five…”
“First Tier!”
Xu Chang Qing emphasized, then smiled and explained, “From now on, I am your protector. I will guard you until we reach Qian City…”
“However, I must emphasize one thing: all your value comes from your identity as a First Tier King Slayer Rank Five…”
“But you must understand, Rank Five is not exclusive to the First Tier. Second Tier, Third Tier, and even Fourth Tier have King Slayer Realm Fighters…”
“The difference between you old citizens and the new citizens is that you can enter the King’s Secret Realm, hunt king beasts, and obtain precious materials…”
Xu Chang Qing seemed amiable, but his words were blunt, directly pointing out Zhao Yu’s situation.
“If, at the Second Tier stage, you fail to hunt at least three second tier king beasts, your autonomy will be restricted. Do you understand this?!” “Understood!”
Zhao Yu was already aware of what Xu Chang Qing was saying, so he didn’t get upset.
“In that case, let’s set off!”
Xu Chang Qing’s visit didn’t alarm the five envoys from Moon City. It seemed both sides didn’t want to meet.
Even when the caravan set off, Zhao Yu didn’t see the other five people again.
This time, because Zhao Yu was a King Slayer Rank Five, the two caravans temporarily stayed in Black Stone Town and traveled together.
The caravan was very large, each having nearly a thousand people. Most of them were only at the First Tier level, responsible for escorting goods, while a small number were Second Tier guards.
In the two caravans, there were also two Third Tier experts, but they were very obedient to Xu Chang Qing, indicating their strength was inferior.
Thus, the traveling party had a total of eight Third tier experts. Besides the two from the caravan, the other six were not to be underestimated based on the analysis result of the Super Brain.
Zhao Yu had thought the journey to Moon City would be made entirely on foot. To his surprise, upon reaching the outskirts of the city, he discovered that the caravan used a carrying animal known as a shell ox.
“This is a creature with only a sense of smell, feeding on blood and moving toward the scent…”
“Our ancestors slowly tamed it after discovering this trait…”
Qian Xin Yue did not avoid Zhao Yu, walking beside him and giving a simple introduction.
Isn’t this just a giant snail?!
Zhao Yu looked at the creature, which was thousands of times larger than a snail, with a body length of three to four meters, and couldn’t help but marvel.
Inside the shell ox’s back, it was furnished like a guest room, complete with tables, chairs, and beds. There was even a thoughtfully placed wooden door that could close.
A cowherd controlled the direction from the front of the shell ox, so Zhao Yu didn’t need to worry.
Looking at the new environment and seeing Qian Xin Yue for the first time in three days, Zhao Yu gave her an ambiguous smile.
“Here?”
Qian Xin Yue instantly understood what he meant, and her face turned red.
“Otherwise, it’s a good start…”
Zhao Yu closed the wooden door with a smile and went forward to hug Qian Xin Yue.
“Erm—!” Qian Xin Yue’s heart trembled and she couldn’t help but let out a delicate moan.
“Bang ~!”
At this moment, the door was kicked open.
“What are you guys doing?!”
Xu Chang Qing asked coldly.
Zhao Yu was a little angry that someone had barged into his room and interrupted his love affair. He turned around and saw that it was Xu Chang Qing. He suppressed his vulgarities and said patiently,
“Can’t the Great Messenger see? I’m having fun with the woman I love, hehehe…”
Xu Chang Qing frowned slightly and glanced at Qian Xin Yue. “Qian Xin Yue, the maid of the eldest daughter of the Qian family…”
He seemed to be judging whether this woman was attack Zhao Yu. After a long while, he nodded slightly, “I understand. I will keep an eye on you from behind. In the future, unless it’s absolutely necessary, don’t close the door…”
“Damn, you’re sick! You have some weird hobby!”
After Xu Chang Qing left, Zhao Yu, feeling frustrated, cursed in a low voice.
“Shh—!”
Unexpectedly, Qian Xin Yue quickly covered his mouth.
“Don’t talk nonsense…”
She stared nervously at the door for a long time, and seeing that Xu Chang Qing didn’t come in again, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Why? Do you know this person?!” Zhao Yu asked with a lot of question marks shown from his expression.
“Of course!”
Qian Xin Yue nodded and continued, “This Xu Chang Qing is someone who came from our Moon City…”
“Ah?!”
“Isn’t he the envoy of the state capital?!” Zhao Yu was stunned.
“Yes!”
“Xu Chang Qing is a member of a side branch of a medium-sized family in our Moon City…”
“He was once unknown…”
“By some stroke of luck, he ate an Immortal medicine in the wild…”
“Since then, it’s as if he embarked on a path of cheating, advancing by leaps and bounds, and making a great name for himself in Hongwu Academy…”
“His background is ordinary, yet he has such a great reputation, naturally attracting a lot of trouble…”
“Who knew that this Xu Chang Qing would kill anyone who stood in his way?
He even defeated many veteran experts…”
Qian Xin Yue looked around and whispered, “You know Wu Yong Wei, right? He once stood against him for his son and caused challenged Xu Chang Qing. He was beaten up like a pig’s head….”
