Light Cultivation
Eps. 238 — Night Atmosphere
Jian Chen was indeed unable to see the contents of the book but the story differed if he activated his celestial eyes.
Although only for a moment Jian Chen could see the letters on the sheets of the Celestial God Book, it seemed that the book could not be read except using Jian Chen's celestial eyes.
Jian Chen did not speak any further when Lun Zhi asked him, it would bring something unnecessary. Although Jian Chen admitted he was curious about the book in Lun Zhi's hands but it was not his.
The meeting with the Mayor did not gradually last long, Lun Zhi offered Jian Chen to stay at the mayor's residence but Jian Chen rejected it subtly.
Jian Chen said that he had already booked a room at the inn before, not to mention he was now with his two girls.
Lun Zhi biting her lips, she realized meeting Jian Chen was arguably just a coincidence and could split up at any time but she also had a reason to bring Jian Chen here.
"Broker Jian, I actually want to ask for your help..." Those words finally came out from Lun Zhi.
Jian Chen frowned, blatantly Lun Zhi said that he needed his help to protect Anshan City.
The situation was not as simple as the Mayor said, as the experienced Lun Zhi could better understand the situation.
Seeing Lun Zhi, a champion of the number 8 in the Dragon Empire asking for help in the young man in front of him made the Mayor understand that Jian Chen has the same strength in height.
"Broker Jian, can you help me to join forces against the invaders of the city? If left to keep Anshan City in danger." Lun Zhi said her intentions excitedly.
Of course Lun Zhi also asked Jian Chen for help not for free, he and perhaps the Mayor would give him a satisfactory payment should Jian Chen help.
The mayor then nodded his head, he did not mind giving Jian Chen a big reward if he participated.
Jian Chen scratched his head, asked or not actually he would do it, after all if all this had something to do with the Shio Hunter Organization then he could not stay silent alone.
Jian Chen finally agreed to help the city as hard as he could, after which he said goodbye because he felt there was no information to dig again.
"Attack yes..." Jian Chen smiled faintly on his way out.
Lun Zhi would have stayed at the Mayor's residence, if there was anything Jian Chen could have gone there again.
When he returned home, Jian Chen did not immediately return to the inn, as expected from a big city like Anshan city, there was a branch of the Miou clan Association applied here.
Jian Chen entered the Association, with his identification mark from Miou Fan it was not difficult for him to become a respected person in the Association.
The association in Anshan City was led by Manager Yuan, a forty-year-old man who possessed the power of the Hampa Realm.
Manager Yuan welcomed Jian Chen and gave him one room, the reason Jian Chen came here was because he wanted to get information from the Association's point of view as well as know the state of the city further.
"What about the Imperial government, did they not act against Anshan City that was about to be attacked?" Jian Chen asked, cutting off Manager Yuan's explanation.
"They've done it Young Master, Actually His Majesty the Emperor has been mobilizing his troops towards the city of Anshan since two days ago, for reasons unknown they have not arrived."
Jian Chen stroked his chin. "What about the enemy's information, how many are they?"
Jian Chen frowned. "Is their strength enough to make this city flat?"
Manager Yuan coughed softly as Jian Chen asked so. "Young Master, Anshan City is a big city, in addition to its vast territory, there are many powerful warriors residing here."
Jian Chen disagreed with the opinion of Manager Yuan but he did not refute it.
Jian Chen knew that as long as one possessed such great strength as the strength of a member of the Shio Hunters, then it was impossible for a city to be destroyed.
In the martial world, numbers are not a winning factor, if someone has very high strength, they can change the situation as they want.
Jian Chen then asked about the strength of the Association in Anshan city, it turned out that there were 6 branch shops here located at various points of the city.
"If calculated in its entirety, we've hired some of the Young Master's powerful warriors, there are 2 Celestial Realms that we are working on as well as 7 Hampa Realms, not to mention there were dozens of Earth Realm and Life Realm as well as more warriors underneath to guard the Association..."
Jian Chen was a little surprised when he heard that, he did not expect the Association to be rich enough to be able to pay a swordsman who was in the Sky Realm.
The Miou clan did not have strong warriors within its clan so their strength tended to be weak but with the wealth they possessed, the Miou clan could employ mercenaries under their feet.
Each warrior power in a certain realm had a different pay and was as knowledgeable as Jian Chen, making the Sky Realm take out tens of thousands of gold pieces.
After some other affairs in the Association, Jian Chen finally returned to the inn. When he arrived, Ye Ziyun and Meily were already waiting for him.
"Why don't you rest? I thought you guys were asleep?" Jian Chen smiled gently at Meily and Ziyun had instead dressed up pretty.
"We can't sleep Brother Jian." Meily said that before turning away from Jian Chen's gaze.
"Is it true, or are you two not going to sleep?" Jian Chen chuckled softly, Meily was clearly a typical girl who was not good at lying.
Watching that Ziyun chuckled, he did not refute Jian Chen's remark because that was exactly how he was. "Brother Jian, the moon is so beautiful tonight, what a pity to miss, right?"
Jian Chen smiled awkwardly, of course he understood it was just a figurative. Ziyun's true intention was that he wanted Jian Chen to take him for a walk tonight.
Jian Chen did not mind if it was in the other city or at a certain time but if now the situation of the city was unstable.
Of course rejecting both is also difficult, but after thinking back even though the city is in turmoil but the conditions are still relatively safe.
Jian Chen finally took the two for a short walk, even though it was night the city was still quite alive with many residents on the move and the surrounding shops were still open.
Apart from its vastness, Anshan City is a developed city, filled with beautiful places and monuments to attract visitors.
Jian Chen did not bring Meily and Ziyun to a distant place, just looking around the crowded area of the city street.
The existence of Jian Chen's entourage was quite so the attention of many people especially the two cute girls who were with him, responding to that gaze Jian Chen could only smile awkwardly, saying, he could not dodge because the looks of Ziyun and Meily were enough to make many people stupefied at him.
Falling in love with the first glance is not a strange thing when looking at the face of Ziyun and Meily, both of them do have beauty on a different level than the average woman in general.
