Story: Shua Xie

___________________________

First of all the place that Shua Xie visited in the Kekai mainland was the inn, before he launched his action later, he first had to find an inn where he would stay for a while. In the central part of the city, Shua Xie found 1 inn that was not too big, he deliberately chose it not because of lack of money, but he did not want to stay in a place that was quite conspicuous, but he did not want to live in a place that was quite conspicuous, Phoe was the one who asked him not to look for the best inn.

After getting the inn and renting it, Shua Xie again continued his main goal, which was to become one of the members of the biggest alliance in Keki city, the name of the alliance was Gold Lion. This alliance is quite influential on the city government of Keki, because usually the members of this alliance who solve the problems in the city of Keki, can be said to be like an intelligence Cultivator, as it is usually the members of this alliance who solve the problems in the city of Keki, not only searching for information but also killing the fugitives that are already targeted.

The Gold Lion Alliance had always accepted Cultivators who wanted to join, but it wasn't easy to get into this alliance. Because they will get a slightly dangerous test, this rule was set hundreds of years ago. Ordinary they would get a kill test, not as usual fighting against other participants and the winner would be accepted. This exam is different, they will be given the mission of killing spirit monsters or fugitives depending on their cultivation level, the higher the cultivation, the more difficult the test will be.

This kind of challenging thing that Shua Xie liked, the harder the exam was the more excited he became. Actually the main goal was not to be a member, but the Phoenix fur they had guarded for hundreds of years. Phoe knew the existence of the Phoenix feather was in a large building in the middle of Kekai city, indeed from the beginning Shua Xie entered the city of Kekai Phoe could already feel the existence of the fur of the Eldest Brother Phoenix.

Shua Xie also had time to find information in advance at the inn where he rented, information about the 2nd largest building in the city of Keki located in the middle of the city. The people that Shua Xie asked briefly replied, it is the Gold Lion building, the place where Cultivators become the protectors of Kekai city.

After getting all the sufficient information, Shua Xie headed straight for the Gold Lion building. From a distance Shua Xie could see that there were 2 men standing guard at the gate, they must be gatekeepers. When Shua Xie was close enough to them, Shua Xie realized something.

'Crazy ones! The gatekeeper was a late White King stage Cultivator, Shua Xie said slightly surprised, as he sensed the cultivation level of the 2 people in front of him.

"Hey! What did you come here for? Do you want to report your problem?" asked one of the guards to Shua Xie, Shua Xie turned to him with a puzzled expression.

"No, I want to register to become a Gold Lion member," Shua Xie replied calmly.

"What's? Did I not hear wrong? You women with cultivation still at level 5 Earth stage want to become a member of us? Are you kidding me?"

"Right, in the alliance we only accept late level Earth stage Cultivators. You better go home, beautiful women like you are not suitable to do work like us," said the other man.

This was the thing that Shua Xie hated the most, underestimated just because she was a woman. Though his hands have killed many people in his past life, do not ask how many? It was obviously a lot for him.

Shua Xie took a step forward, but suddenly Phoe answered him, 'Stop! Don't fight them, we'd better follow their rules. If you get into trouble, it'll make our main goal even harder.'

Stopped Shua Xie with a flat face, "Alright, then what should we do?" shua Xie asked in a soft voice so that the 2 people in front of him did not hear him.

'This Gold Lion is like a police force in the city of Keki, so it is natural that we have difficulty entering it. You'd better put aside your cultivation first until the Earth stage of the final level, how?' reply Phoe.

Shua Xie's lips were slightly wrinkled, with his level now reaching the peak of the Earth stage definitely taking quite a long time, and Shua Xie most disliked wasting time. Soon he wanted to take the Phoenix feather and leave the city of Kekai.

"All right."

'I've been exuding my spirit senses throughout Kekai city, although it takes a lot of energy but there are some pretty interesting places for us to go. In that place I can feel the power of an heirloom object, even though the inheritance is not much for me, but at least I can recover a little of my strength, Phoe said in Shua Xie's head.

Shua Xie nodded slowly, his fingers playing the wooden chopsticks. A few minutes ago Shua Xie entered the noodle shop, as usual noodle food is what he likes, even though he knows eating noodles is not too good for health, let alone he is a Cultivator.

One of the female workers approached Shua Xie and placed a small teapot with her glass on Shua Xie's dinner table. Shua Xie poured the water into his glass, then gulped down the water.

"Ah, what do you mean by that place?" shua Xie asked after he finished drinking all the water in his glass.

'It looks like it's where the Cultivator's weapons sales pavilion is, I can feel so many weapons there, ' Phoe replied.

Shua Xie looked up, "Weapons huh? I used to have a lot, but already I gave it to four big sakte," Shua Xie muttered softly, suddenly he remembered his meeting with 4 big figures from 4 different sakte.

'How do you want to go there? There is quite interesting as well, then after that we go to the drug store that is quite famous in the city of Keki? We can buy medicinal herbs to concoct your body.'

Shua Xie walked towards the place of payment, giving 1 monster spirit stone to the cashier guard man. The man was quite surprised when he saw Shua Xie give him 1 monster spirit stone which was notoriously expensive, moreover in the city of Kekai it was very rare for a flawless monster spirit stone like that of Shua Xie.

"I-this? Too much," said the man.

"No problem, later I will come again to this place until all I eat is equivalent to the price of the stone, how?"

The man gaped before Shua Xie, suddenly his mouth became stiff to speak. In the city of Kekai, 1 flawless monster spirit stone costing 500-700 gold coins depending also on the tier. The monster spirit stone that Shua Xie gave was a level 2 Cloud Deer monster spirit stone, so if sold it could earn 500 gold coins. Approximately eating noodles up to how many times can only spend 500 gold coins, let alone 1 bowl of noodles for 2 gold coins.

"Ba, okay. Miss will be the VIP guest of our diner, I will tell her to our Boss," replied the man slightly quivering in fear, knowing that the flawless monster spirit stone belonged to a girl before him, it means that the girl is a great Cultivator.

"Okay, I'll come here often. Oh yes your noodles are so good," Shua Xie replied as she stepped away from the noodle shop. Outside of so many humans wandering around doing their activities, somehow seeing all of that reminded Shua Xie of Xuilin city.

Given how he could come into this kind of cruel world, entering the body of a princess was not considered. But after knowing everything, Shua Xie finally understood, the owner of this body is not not not considered, but instead d

protected by his own foster father. Even though Feng Kim used to look so hateful to Shua Xie, he wanted Shua Xie dead, but it was just acting.

'A thousand meters from here, in the east.'

Shua Xie immediately ran as fast as he could towards the place that Phoe described. It didn't take long, in just 10 seconds he had arrived in front of a 3-story pavilion, quite large and mega. It must be that the owner of the pavilion was an influential person as well in the city of Keki.

This Kekai City even though it has many alchemists, but Cultivators also exist, only alchemists are more domineering in Kekai city.

Shua Xie entered the pavilion, inside he saw many Cultivators were picking weapons, ranging from the young to the old. The 1st floor pavilion looked like an armament market, so many people on the 1st floor.

Shua Xie headed straight upstairs, just like Phoe said. The heirloom weapon that Phoe was referring to was on the top floor. But to go upstairs, visitors must have a special token provided by the pavilion. So not just anyone can climb upstairs.

"Crazy, on the second floor only the price of the weapon is expensive, especially on the top floor?" shua Xie muttered softly with a surprised expression. Shua Xie looked at some mid-tier weapons already priced in.

The black-coloured Sword, right in front of Shua Xie really made people die of shock. The price placed on the sword was equivalent to 100 pieces of monster spirit stones.

"Black Moon Swords are expensive. From the book I read, the Black Moon sword was an heirloom weapon that was almost equivalent to a high level. So it's only natural that the price is high." Suddenly a young man in his 15s came to Shua Xie, as if he had heard Shua Xie's shock.

Suddenly Shua Xie glanced at the young man, when he heard someone telling him, "Eh? Equivalent to a high-level heirloom sword? Then why's it on display on the second floor?"

"Because of the damage, so the Black Moon sword was placed on the second floor. The power of this sword is decreasing, so that's why the Black Moon sword is on display here."

Shua Xie was stunned to hear the young man's explanation, in his gaze the Black Moon sword was filled with questions. In fact Shua Xie could feel the quality of the weapon according to his intention, from what he saw the Black Moon sword in front of him this was not damage, but progressing, it's just that no one knows about it. The red aura that enveloped the sword, not the usual aura, according to Shua Xie the sword had to be pushed aside for its quality to increase.

'The only way you can feel the power of the Black Moon sword, as you feel, it's not broken but it needs to be removed.'

"So my core is right? It turned out that the sword was not broken," Shua Xie muttered softly as he stroked the back of his neck.

The young man beside Shua Xie slightly wrinkled when he heard Shua Xie mutter.

"Intuition? Senior can sense the power of a weapon?" ask the young man.

Shua Xie glanced towards the young man, "Ah, that is. How to explain it. I actually have quite a strong instinct when I feel the power of a weapon. Actually, the Black Moon sword did not suffer any damage, but it needed to be pulled over again. It was like a Cultivator who was about to break through the next stage but was held back by something," Shua Xie explained with an awkward smile.

The young man nodded as if understanding Shua Xie's explanation, "Senior Sorry. I forgot to introduce myself, I am Tang Shan from the Tang clan," Tang Shan said gently introducing himself.

Shua Xie smiled slightly, "Oh, yes. I'm Menma" Shua Xie replied introducing herself with a false identity. He deliberately hid his identity because the situation did not allow him to remember that Lou Zo had already started moving. If the information about him is spread, he can be harmed.

"Senior Menma, is Senior a newcomer in Keki city?" tang Shan asked with a nod by Shua Xie.

"Does Senior want to go upstairs?" Again Tang Shan asked. After seeing Shua Xie's expression he could guess that this Shua Xie wanted to go upstairs but did not have any special tokens.

"Ah, how do you know? Yes I do want to go upstairs, it's just that I don't have any special tokens."

"Senior can come with me, I happen to be going upstairs too."

***

Shua Xie was really amazed when he went upstairs, on the top floor was so charming, the architecture of the upper building looks so modern even he thinks more modern than his own original world. Unceasingly Shua Xie looked at the weapon on display, but every time he saw the price of the weapon, it felt like his soul was about to leave his body. How not, the price mounted on those weapons was already on par with all of his spirit stones, still even more expensive. This pavilion actually spent money in one visit.

Not far in front of Tang Shan, 3 young men came over to Shua Xie and Tang Shan. Of the 3 people were intending to find trouble with the two of them.

"Yo, Tang Shan the scum of the Tang clan. Do you want to buy a gun? You'd better go home, trash like you even if you wear a high-level heirloom is still garbage," said the front youth, to his two arms crossed in front of his chest, looking like his face was mocking.

Tang Shan glanced towards Shua Xie as Shua Xie looked at the arrogant young man in front of him. Tang Shan turned to look forward, "Guwei Mo, you have no right to forbid me. It's forbidden to look for a commotion here, do you know!" reply Tang Shan, his gaze intimidating Guwei Mo, he was really afraid that Shua Xie would get involved with his affairs.

Guwei Mo's forehead shriveled, "Yo, how dare you challenge me. Do you still want me to hit you like usual? Did you forget how the Mo clan suppressed the Tang clan?" guwei Mo's reply slightly raised.

Silently Tang Shan as Guwei Mo discussed about the matter of the Tang clan and the Mo clan. Suddenly the same he could not dwell on considering the events of 5 months ago, when patriarch Tang Gou died fighting with patriarch Mo Chen. The fight happened only because of the matter of seizing the resources that were in the forest with the Tang clan.

"Hey, who do you dare to rule over Brother Tang Shan. What's the matter with you if he wants to buy a gun!" Shua Xie spoke to Guwei Mo after understanding the problems of these 2 people. Actually Shua Xie was least fond of interfering with other people's matters, but since Tang Shan had helped him, inevitably he also had to help Tang Shan.

Guwei Mo turned to look at Shua Xie with a slightly angry face, "You don't need to interfere! This is my problem and this trash!" his reply loudly made everyone stare at them.

As soon as the atmosphere became tense, the people who watched Guwei Mo in action could only sigh, they did not dare to interfere, if they were to interfere they would have trouble from the Mo clan as well, they would have trouble from the Mo clan, considering that the Mo clan is very influential in the city of Keki. Let alone the many strong Cultivators in the Mo clan.

"What's the matter Brother Tang Shan will also be my problem. Also, don't scream trash if you're the real trash! What a useless piece of society trash!"
