The Heavenly Jewel Change
Chapter 41: Flying City Fei Li Empire Flying City (2)
After a while, the entire pot of bamboozled dew soup had been polished by the two of them, even Zhou Weiqing had only eaten only a third of it, and the majority was eaten by Shangguan Binger. After finishing the pot, he even licked his lips and stuck out his pink little tongue, as if not yet fully satisfied. He usually ate at the mess in the military camp, which never had such a delicious meal.
He looked at Zhou Weiqing somewhat timidly, and happened to see him still chewing on dry rations. Instantly, this kind girl's heart was filled with regret and shame; she thought about how she refused to give her dry rations earlier, and instead ended up eating her good food, instead, and her pretty face turned hot and red, as she lowered her head in silence.
Zhou Weiqing asked gently, "Is this delicious?"
"En." Shangguan Binger nodded slightly.
Zhou Weiqing smiled, and continued to say in an alluring voice: "Then in the future will I always continue to prepare it for you?"
Shangguan Binger nodded once more.
Zhou Weiqing's voice sounded again, with a hint of embarrassment, "Then, since I'm a handsome man who also excels in the kitchen, how about giving me a chance to chase after you?"
Due to the previous sentence, Shangguan Binger almost nodded in subconscious, “En…. Uh! No!"
Only then did Shangguan Bing'er realize that he had been tricked and jumped in response, but just as he was about to reprimand Zhou Weiqing angrily, he saw that this person raised both of his hands to his head, curled up on the ground, saying with a sad expression, "Even if it's okay, you shouldn't hit me!"
Walking closer to give him a light kick on his butt with his foot, Shangguan Binger said desperately: "Who wants to hit you? Time to go."
They set off once more, and although Shangguan Binger still ignored Little Fatty Zhou, but after having the bamboo shoots dew soup, he could not put on his cold expression anymore.
"Batalion commander, where are we going? At least let me have an idea. "Zhou Weiqing asked curiously.
Shangguan Binger glanced at him and said, "We're going to Fei Li Empire's Hill Flying City."
Zhou Weiqing stopped in surprise, he did not think that Shangguan Binger would take him to such a far away place, no wonder he said earlier that they would not return to the camp for months.
The Fei Li Empire and the Heavenly Arc Empire shared the border, and headed to the Northeast of the Heavenly Arc Empire. Fei Li Empire was one of the larger empires in the Boundless Continent, and was almost over a hundred times larger than the Heavenly Bow Empire, which was a very small country .. Of the various empires in the Western Region of the Boundless Empire, only Bai Da Empire, which was separated from the Heavenly Arc Empire by the Kalise Empire, was as strong as the Fei Li Empire.
As for the Flying Hill City that Shangguan Binger was talking about, Zhou Weiqing also knew that. Flying Hill City was strategically one of the most important cities on the southern border of Fei Li Empire, and in the entire Fei Li Empire, it was also in the top 5 largest cities, as well, and about ten times larger than the Heavenly Bow City, and extremely prosperous.
The Heavenly Bow Empire and Fei Li Empire were on good terms, just as the Kalise Empire was closer to the Bai Da Empire. Other than Heavenly Bow and Kalise, there were several other small countries close to Bai Da and Fei Li Empires, which separated the two big countries. If not for that, perhaps these two great empires that had extremely disharmonious relations might have exploded into a great war.
Shangguan Binger looked at him sharply, saying, “Taking a horse carriage is not free. The cost for one person was already two gold coins. On foot, we at most need to buy dry rations, the two of us added together will spend less than one gold coin. ”
Zhou Weiqing looked at him in astonishment, "Batial Commander, I never thought that you were a little stingy. After all, you are one of the country pillars, the top genius of the younger generation, our only Heavenly Jewel Master, and also the Viscount of the Empire, as well, your monthly salary should be around 80 to 100 gold coins, why do you care only 4 gold coins? "
Shangguan Binger said: “The best metal alloy should be used on the blade tip *. As Heavenly Jewel Masters, we need a lot of money to nurture, the Empire has given us so much to train us, shouldn't we be more economical in unnecessary matters? Moreover, you have just become a Celestial Gem Master, on foot, you can better adapt by using your Heavenly Jewels. ”

Zhou Weiqing brandished a large thumb, and shook it at Shangguan Binger. He asked, "What are you doing?"
Zhou Weiqing said with a smile: "Heh, marrying you would really be something happy."
Shangguan Bing's face turned cold once again, "You're asking for another beating?"
Zhou Weiqing changed the subject instantly, "Batial Commander, I made a mistake. By the way, why are we flying to Flying Hill City? ”
Shangguan Binger couldn't help but want to hit him again, this bastard must have been quick to admit his mistake, but never changed after that.
“We will try our luck.I also just obtained my second Heavenly Jewel, and the first you also do not have any Consolidated Equipment or Stored Skills. Our Heavenly Bow Empire does not have a Consolidated Equipment Master or a Skill Saving Palace, only the Great City of Empires has one. Flying Hill City is the closest to us. ”
Listening to his words, Zhou Weiqing's spirit was greatly inspired, "Commander of the Battalion, What skills should I save? you won't let me consolidate a set of armor, what are you planning to let me Consolidate? "
Shangguan Binger said desperately, "It's not as easy as you think. Firstly, whether we can meet the corresponding Consolidated Equipment Scroll or Heavenly Beast to Store Skills, even if we find a good one, we might not have sufficient funds to obtain one. Therefore, I said before that we can only try our luck. To us Heavenly Jewel Masters, our Physical Gem Consolidation Equipment and Elemental Gem Saving Skills are truly too important, only when we have completed these two great steps, is it really too important, we can fully use our full strength. However, you must remember our three-point agreement, without my permission, you must not reveal that you are the Celestial Gem Master, either, especially you should not let anyone see your Alexandrite Cat Eye Element Gem. Did you hear me? ”
"Yes, I will definitely listen to you!" Zhou Weiqing said immediately. At this moment, his mood was extremely excited, putting aside the success of his first Consolidated Equipment and Stored Skills, just experiencing all of this very well. When he entered the Heavenly Jewel Master realm step by step, the feeling was extremely beautiful, so much so that he did not even feel tired anymore while moving along.
Shangguan Binger looked at Zhou Weiqing whose Alexandrite Cat Eye in his left hand was a cyan color on the day when he made use of his Wind Attribute Heavenly Energy. He sighed lightly and said, “Your talent is very good, but, with that also comes a big problem. Your Elemental Jewel has five powerful attributes, it also means that every Elemental Jewel you need to store five skills, the sheer price of it is something that even the empire cannot support. In addition, your Attributes also include Darkness and Spatial attributes which are Great Attributes, as well as those Evil Attributes; all of them may require a more difficult-to-find Heavenly Beast for you to Stores Skills. Your future cultivation route will be a hundred times more difficult than an ordinary Celestial Gem Master. "
"The reason why I don't want you to reveal your Alexandrite Cat's Eye to others is because I was afraid that when the other Celestial Gem Masters saw your talent, they would want to kill you earlier. After all, the more talented the Celestial Gem Master was, the higher the chances for them to die at such a young age. Unless it's ……"
