Light Cultivation
Eps. 133 — Car Nobles
Jian Chen in his first life had indeed been to the Wind Dragon Province just that the path he had come here was different so he did not know too well of a small town like Shanwei.
Jian Chen had already been informed before coming here by Miou Lin about the information of the city, one of which was that there was a branch of the Miou clan Association here.
So when he set foot there the first thing Jian Chen had to look for was the Association shop.
While walking on the city streets, Jian Chen saw the atmosphere of Shanwei city, a small city that was indeed not too crowded that should be owned by a city.
From just a glance Shanwei city is a city filled with buying and selling, every Jian Chen walked there were many merchants who filled the lips of the city streets.
'I hope the economy of this city will return once I destroy the pirate...'
Jian Chen shook his head slowly, he then realized the reason the passengers on the ship had chosen to trade to other Provinces. Selling in Shanwei city is not very profitable for traders, especially buyers and visitors.
It didn't take long Jian Chen found the Association store that Miou Lin said.
It was not difficult to look for it because other than the shop was a big one, it was also very famous here so Jian Chen could easily when asking the locals.
Jian Chen frowned when the Association store had many customers, it seemed like the Association Shop still had many buyers especially warriors regardless of the sepinya of Shanwei city.
Jian Chen then pointed the jade pendant at the shopkeeper, within a short period of time Jian Chen's status turned into that of a respected person there.
The head of the Shop who was as a male in his 30s smiled kindly welcoming Jian Chen after getting to know his identity.
Jian Chen's reason to the Association was simple, he wanted to find out the way to go to the capital of the Wind Dragon Province that was Qianwei city.
"Young Master can take the southern path of the city and pierce the road that is usually used by the merchants in this city. By using the vehicle at least Young Master can get up to twenty days there if there are no obstacles on the road."
Jian Chen nodded in understanding, had there been a golden eagle in the Association he might have been able to cut his travel time but what could have been done if the Association of this store did not have one.
Indeed, the golden eagle demon is very rare, besides buying it is not cheap. At least one had to spend dozens of millions of gold coins to buy one such golden eagle and Jian Chen was sure this shop did not have one.
Jian Chen intended to go to the central association in the Qianwei capital to borrow the golden eagle so that it could go faster towards the Earth Dragon Province.
Then the Head of the shop also explained along towards the capital, Jian Chen would pass through various villages, small towns, medium to large up to a certain clan.
What was noteworthy was that Jian Chen had to be wary of the attacking demons or the robbers along the way because behind this many events were not wearing in the Wind Dragon Province.
That was why the Head of the Shop advised Jian Chen to be escorted by the warriors working in the Association.
"For escorts I don't need them, than that I need more vehicles to go ."
"But Young Master, you must..." The Head of the Shop seemed to object because a trip to the capital could be dangerous.
Seeing Jian Chen was young, the Head of the Shop thought Jian Chen's cultivation was still weak.
"Just relax, I can take care of myself, my ability is not too bad either..." Jian Chen smiled softly. "Now all I need is a vehicle, does this store have one?"
The Head of the Shop nodded then then explained that there was a carriage in his possession but Jian Chen rejected it, preferring to wear a horse only.
In the end a milky white horse was removed from the stable, it looked gallant and beautiful like the horses of the nobles.
Jian Chen stroked the horse's head, "How much does it cost, it looks like it's very expensive."
Jian Chen shook his head then threw a leather pouch at the Head of the Shop. "I'll buy this horse."
The Head of the Shop looked at the contents of the leather pouch before holding his breath, the amount of money Jian Chen gave was more than enough to buy those five white horses.
The horse given to Jian Chen was a white rose horse, one of the expensive types of horses in this Dragon Empire. Besides being famous for their beautiful colors, the horses also have stronger stamina than horses in general.
"The horse is the White Rose, so this is the famous horse..." Jian Chen clucked in awe after being told by the Head of the Shop.
Jian Chen then rode the horse, he bid farewell to the Chief of the Shop before spurring his horse to leave Shanwei City.
***
Two hours passed by Jian Chen leaving the City while riding his horse, he arrived at one of the woods he had to go through on his way.
The forest has shady trees on the side of the road so that even though it is still daytime the road looks rather dark.
'Had he asked me to be careful, if the forest was this big then it was no wonder a wild animal or demon would appear against pedestrians."
Jian Chen again spurred his horse this time to run fast, while it was still day and the sun was shining above, Jian Chen did not want to rest on this forest road let alone to spend the night.
Jian Chen wanted to continue making his horse run but when he was on his way, he found that there was a train troupe that stopped not far in front of his way.
The five carriages looked luxurious and unlike the carriages that merchants normally used, Jian Chen guessed that the carriage blocking his way was a carriage from the nobles.
Jian Chen's gaze turned to something that made the carriage stop, right at the front of the carriage was a fight between the guards and the wolf pack.
"Miss, you better go with the others, we can't hold this wolf any longer!" The Chief of Guards who followed the carriage, shouted on his side to fight.
"But what about you, if you stay here you could be in danger..." A woman who was in the carriage paled when she heard it, she obviously did not want her guards to die here.
"The problem is that we will run away as much as possible but for now Miss and others must go." The Chief of Guards bit his lips. "Even if we die here, it's our job to protect Miss."
The other bodyguards were almost overwhelmed by the number of wolves that approached him, the problem was that they could not hold the wolf any longer.
Fighting while protecting someone is not easy, their attention will always be divided every time.
"You seem to be helping them, don't you? Given your character who always meddles in other people's affairs?" Lily asked from inside.
"They're in need of help, should I keep quiet when I can help them?"
Lily shrugged, "It's up to you, I don't care what you do as long as it doesn't put your life at risk, I don't protest."
"Oh, are you worried about me?"
"Ih, amit-amit!" Lily stuck out her little tongue while folding her chest hand. "I'm only concerned about myself, if you die, I die too! Just be careful if you get killed, this Princess will make a big calculation with you!"
Jian Chen smiled wryly, he was still not used to being bullied by someone let alone that person was the prettiest woman he had ever met like Lily.
Jian Chen sighed before leaping off his horse high and then landing in the middle of the bodyguard, making the beholder surprised by his sudden arrival.
