Yangwei City

“Prince way!” Jian Chen's command was currently staring at the three youths who had broken bones in several parts of their bodies.

Hearing Jian Chen's command with a slightly cold face, the three young men did not dare to refute at all. If someone as strong as Xiao Yu could be ruled by Jian Chen, wouldn't Jian Chen definitely be stronger?

“Good. What place do you want to go first Young Master? In Yangwei City, there are many tourist attractions are enough.” Before the delinquent leader finished his words, Jian Chen instantly cut him off.

“I want to go to a place that contains detailed information of Phoenix Mountain!” Jian Chen's orders.

The three of them were not too surprised that Jian Chen wanted information about the Phoenix Mountain because many cultivators had come from time to time to Yangwei City only to find such information.

As a fairly famous Mountain on Buddha Island, Phoenix Mountain was often investigated by strong cultivators. In all the cities located at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, they all provided information about Phoenix Mountain even though it was incomplete.

“Follow us young master.” The small-town delinquent leader immediately spoke and hurriedly led Jian Chen and Xiao Yu into the city, to the place Jian Chen wanted to be.

Jian Chen gave a small nod then followed the three delinquents along with Xiao Yu.

As he entered the city, Jian Chen and Xiao Yu inspected the small town closely. The place was quite comfortable to live in, everyone who lived there were cultivators even though they were not the type of cultivators who were chasing the peak of the cultivation path.

The peaceful city seemed to have no problem at all about the newcomers trying to do something bad.

Jian Chen who was staring at it, instantly carried a speculation that there must be someone protecting the city as a stopover for all cultivators who wanted to climb the Phoenix Mountain to look for information.

Not long after, the three delinquents led Jian Chen and Xiao Yu to a fairly spacious building in Yangwei city. Many people were seen coming in and out of the building.

“Young master, this is an information service place specially made in Yangwei City by Mayor.” One of the delinquents said in a respectful tone to Jian Chen while introducing the spacious enough building.

“If so, go.” Jian Chen waved his hand like expelling a fly as he also did not want to see the three facing off who considered himself very strong.

The three delinquents hurriedly bowed then left as Jian Chen turned out to release them after they had tried to rob before.

“Come in Xiao Yu.” Jian Chen slowly walked inside followed by Xiao Yu.

When he passed through the gate, Jian Chen and Xiao Yu passed by some other cultivators who were quite strong. They glanced at each other then ignored Jian Chen and Xiao Yu who were the ambassadors cultivators to search for information at the place provided by Mayor Yangwei.

“It seems that from this city, it is not only us who want to go up to Mount Phoenix.” Xiao Yu spoke as he glanced at the previous cultivators who had passed them.

Jian Chen nodded and continued walking, when he reached the entrance, the few cultivators guarding the door spoke, “What information do these two Young Masters want?”

“All information you have about Phoenix Mountain.” Jian Chen replied.

After Jian Chen and Xiao Yu followed, the guard led the two into one particular room. Inside the room, there were many cultivators who were discussing or negotiating. Jian Chen and Xiao Yu were led to one of the places the cultivator looked was waiting for anyone to come.

“Master, these two Young Masters wanted information about Phoenix.” Mountain, the guard said.

“Good, return. I'll take care of it from here.” The middle-aged man who was sitting on a chair with a table in front of him also told the guards to return.

After the guard left, the middle-aged man looked towards Jian Chen and Xiao Yu then said, “Please sit down!”

Jian Chen and Xiao Yu sat across from the middle-aged man and asked, “The information we want is the history of Phoenix Mountain, a fairly safe path to the top, and then we want to go to the top, as well as mysterious places or quite dangerous places in Phoenix Mountain.”

The middle-aged man was not surprised by the first request, but he raised his eyebrows when Jian Chen also asked for information about a mysterious place or a quite dangerous place in Phoenix Mountain, he said, not a place to find resource opportunities.

“Young master, is that the only information you want? Are you not interested in a place that has the possibility of finding valuable resources in Phoenix Mountain?” Asked the middle-aged man in a slightly astonished tone.

“No. How much does it cost for the information I need?” Jian Chen asked.

The middle-aged man no longer spoke of the place he wanted to show. He took out a thin book, it was a history book about Phoenix Mountain. After that, he took out two scrolls, one information about a mysterious place, one about a dangerous place in Phoenix Mountain.

“This book is the history of Mount Phoenix. The first scroll was a clue map about a mysterious place in Phoenix Mountain and the other was a dangerous place. These three pieces of information were worth 100 Gold Coins each. A map of dangerous places also shows a safe path when ascending to Mount Phoenix.” The middle-aged man immediately put a price.

“Very expensive! We will buy this information worth 150 Gold Coins!” Xiao Yu instantly cut in half the price.

The old man's face twitched slightly and even Jian Chen was silent for a while.

They have a large number of gold coins, that number can even support as far as the island of tens of thousands of people in a few years.

“200 Gold Coins.” The middle-aged man shook his head as it seemed that Xiao Yu would bid back if he said 250 Gold Coins. He also gave the lowest price.

Jian Chen shook his head then looked like he was taking out two bags of gold coins containing 100 Gold Coins each from within his clothes so that no one would be suspicious about his storage ring.

“Deal.” Jian Chen, who handed him the bag of gold coins, had three items on the table when the middle-aged man saw the contents of the bag of coins.

“Is there any other information you want?” The middle-aged man asked as he stared at Jian Chen stuffing the three objects he had taken out into the clothes.

“Is the purchase of information limited to the area around Phoenix Mountain?” Jian Chen asked.

The middle-aged man smiled and replied, “No, information networks are available in every city and this is big business. Do you know Queen's Port? It is the owner of the Queen's port that sustains the information network throughout the Buddha Island!”
