Chapter 516 - Blue Tide City
Chapter 516 - Blue Tide City
After Su Minghai informed Lei Feifei, his mood was good as he would earn a massive profit from this deal. He poured himself another cup of wine and laughed happily. "Trust me, Little Brother Mu. You won't regret this."
Yun Lintian felt nothing about joining the Black Wing group. After all, it was on a mutual benefit. He looked at Su Minghai and asked. "Actually, I'm curious. With Brother Su's strength, forcing me to join the group shouldn't be a problem…."
Before Yun Lintian could finish his sentence, Su Minghai interrupted first. "What you said is true, but not everyone in this world is the same. It may sound unbelievable, but I had never forced anyone with my power throughout my life. Of course, if someone tried to harm me, then I wouldn't be polite." He drank a mouthful of wine and continued. "Doing business is what I love the most. When I saw you showing off your strength yesterday, I immediately knew that you are the most precious treasure in the market. How could I be willing to break it?"
"Basically, I am just a product in your eyes?" Yun Lintian didn't get offended upon hearing this. On the other hand, if Su Minghai said otherwise, he wouldn't believe it at all.
Su Minghai chuckled. "You can think like that."
Yun Lintian didn't say anything further and continued to look at the scenery outside.
An hour later, the carriage gradually approached a somewhat huge city. Yun Lintian looked over and was slightly surprised as this place had no wall. Several rows of buildings aligned and formed into a city, spanning more than a thousand square kilometers.
A gentle wind carried a smell of salt blew against Yun Lintian's face, making him feel nostalgic a bit. It's been a long time since he went to the beach. The last time he saw the sea has to trace back to when he was on Earth.
Xia Yao's silhouette suddenly appeared in Yun Lintian's mind, causing him to fall into a trance.
Su Minghai thought that Yun Lintian was astonished by the Blue Tide City's appearance. He smiled faintly and began to introduce. "Surprised? This city doesn't belong to any force. So, there is no need to build a wall here."
Su Minghai sent a sound transmission to a coachman, and the latter quickly increased the pace of the carriage, passing through the first inspection point. Judging from the respectful expressions of the guards, it seemed Su Minghai's status in this city was not low.
"What happened, Big Brother Yun?" Linlin could feel Yun Lintian's mood was not good. She patted the latter's chest and asked worriedly.
Yun Lintian came back to his sense and gave a smile. "It's nothing. Big brother just thought of something." He then turned to Su Minghai and asked. "You also opened the inn here?"
Su Minghai nodded. "Naturally. However, before going to my inn. I'll send you to see Lei Feifei first. She has been waiting for us right now."
Yun Lintian responded with a hum and turned his gaze to the bustling scenery outside. Endless people wandered on the streets with different styles of buildings and storefronts sprawled on without end on both sides.
As crowds moved together, the waves of clamor were like the tide. It was exceedingly lively and bustling. In addition, regardless of gender or age, nearly everyone carried varied levels of profound energy.
Compared to the Profound Sky Divine City, the atmosphere in this place was more energetic as people here seemed to be full of happiness and carefree.
Su Minghai looked at the bustling crowds and said. "Compared to people in other major cities, everyone here doesn't carry much pressure in their life. They would rather choose to live a happy and leisure life than force themselves to practice every day. Maybe this is the charm of this place."
Yun Lintian subconsciously nodded his head in agreement. He, too, would pick the same choice as he believed; the beauty of the journey is found not in the destination but in the scenery along the way. Unfortunately, he didn't have a choice. The moment he received the Beyond Heaven King's inheritance, his life was destined to be busy and constantly on the run.
After passing seven extremely long streets, the carriage took a right turn and moved further for another ten minutes. The flow of people suddenly decreased, even the atmosphere had become quite different.
The carriage firmly stopped in front of a seven-story building with a huge plaque above the entrance. Yun Lintian glanced upward, and the four words "Black Wing Mercenary Group" were lined horizontally on the white plaque. Yun Lintian could feel an inexplicable deterrent force coming out of it.
The surrounding area was different from the bustling and liveliness on other streets; not only were the amount of people that passed through very few, most of them also walked with hurried footsteps and with their mouths tightly closed. Let alone being bustling, there wasn't even anyone that spoke loudly as if they were afraid to disturb something.
"Let's go in." Su Minghai walked out of the carriage and led Yun Lintian into the building.
The interior of the Black Wing group's building was spacious, and its silence carried a kind of looming pressure. If normal people walked inside, they would all be constrained by the atmosphere to the point of being unable to breathe properly.
There weren't many people around here, only four or five people were walking around, busy with their own matters.
When a thirty-something-year-old man stood behind a long counter saw Su Minghai coming. He smiled and hurriedly greeted. "What brings you here today, Owner Su?"
Yun Lintian could feel that this person was extremely familiar with Su Minghai, and the word "Owner" in his mouth didn't seem to refer to the inn owner, but rather something else.
Su Minghai glanced at the man and said calmly. "I made an appointment with your leader. She should be waiting for me right now."
A realization look appeared on the man's face. "I see." He glanced at Yun Lintian and Linlin in the latter's arms before saying. "This…"
Su Minghai's body suddenly emitted a deterrent aura as she said coldly.. "You should focus on your business."
