Chapter 540: Radiance City

Jin Rou and company immediately left the inn after breakfast. Time was precious so Jin Rou didn't want to linger longer than necessary. But before he left, he was once again warned by Sister Lili out of concern. Nevertheless, Jin Rou would stand with his decision no matter what and no matter, no one or nothing could stop him.

Five hours passed. They finally reached the Radiance City, the place before you could take to the path leading to Hera's Domain. It was only past in the noon, so the three grabbed some lunch and continued passing through the city.

Radiance City was one of the largest place in State Region. After all, it was a place where all kinds of goods were being sold. As a matter of fact, you could find heavenly treasures here if you're lucky.

The road was buzzling with energetic voices of vendors. They were all lined up by the sideways and boasting their products and all. But Jin Rou wasn't impressed, he found so many fakes and imitations in those products they were selling.

"Con artists." Lucas sneered. He could also see the fakeries in the items and said, "If you aren't knowledgeable about these things, you might end up buying a useless thing for yourself for a high price. And that's ridiculous."

"This is normal. You cannot guarantee that all of the items are real. Although there are several real ones, they have no value or whatsoever. So you just have to be careful in choosing what to buy here." Jin Rou said, "But as I can see, there is nothing worth buying here to help you two about cultivation."

"There's no need for that Young Master." The two shook their head and said in unison.

Jin Rou couldn't help but laugh and said, "You two synced well with each other. You should be partners in the future. You will produce great teamwork and efficiency together."

The two looked at each other and didn't know what to say.

The road going out of Radiance City was long, and the law of the region stated that flying was prohibited and would immediately kill any offenders. It was one of their iron laws that seek for no excuse.

And Jin Rou wanted to be a good visitor as much as possible. Perhaps, the clan would be so good to him and give him favor. If that'd be the case, he would surely repay them handsomely.

After an hour, they finally got out of the busy road filled with vendors. However, Jin Rou noticed something up ahead.

It was lone vendor placing his items on a dirty piece of cloth. He looked like a beggar as flies were flying around him buzzing. No one would think that he was a merchant because of his looks, but Jin Rou could see through.

Jin Rou walked over to the lone merchant and observed his items.

There were necklaces, rings, and bracelets. All of which had the same pattern. What's more, it was emitting a thick aura of chaos that only Jin Rou could see.

"You have some nice items here. Are they for sale?" Jin Rou asked the beggar.

"Yes." The beggar nodded and answered. His voice was low that only Jin Rou could hear.

"Compared to the fake merchants there on the busy road, your items are more valuable all in all. So you should be there." Jin Rou assessed.

"Those dimwits are claiming that I have no place there because of my fake items so here I am." The beggar's tone was filled with mockery.

"Yes, they are nothing but a bunch of dimwits." Jin Rou laughed. He was liking the personality of this unknown man.

Lucas examined the other party and see if there was something worthy. But his eyes couldn't see what Jin Rou was seeing so it was useless. Still, he was curious what kind of person this beggar was to catch Jin Rou's attention. After all, judging by the items, it was valuable enough to receive compliment from Jin Rou.

Tiresh was silently observing by the sidelines. She might find some clues from Jin Rou's words as everything about him was a thick fog called mystery.

"What is your name?" After a short silence, the beggar asked Jin Rou his name. Maybe it was out of curiosity.

"Jin Rou. My name is Jin Rou." Jin Rou smiled, "How about you?"

"Dennis." The beggar answered. It was the first time he had given his name to an unknown stranger.

"Okay, Dennis. These items of yours are very valuable. I want to purchase one set. How much would it probably cost?" Jin Rou got down to the business.

"I can only sell one item per person. It is not allowed to give you a set of the items." Dennis said firmly. It was his rule since he came here. Each item was very valuable and he couldn't sell it all at once or by set.

"I see." Jin Rou nodded as he held his chin, "You will hold this principle even at the cost of your identity?"

The beggar froze and looked at Jin Rou with surprised expression.

Jin Rou paused for a moment and said, "You see, you can hide from anyone but me. I don't know why a member of the Divine Court is here, but the Darkglow Clan will surely hunt you no matter where you go here once they found out."

"Who are you?" The beggar was greatly shaken. He hid his identity well for so many years now, but someone he met for the first time discovered him? Or perhaps was this planned all along?

Lucas' blood turned cold. To think that this beggar was probably a spy here to watch the clan's moves, "Young Master, if we catch him and bring him to the Darkglow Clan, the clan will surely repay the favor and might give us permission to enter Hera's Domain."

Jin Rou had thought of this too. This was an opportunity to add debts on the arrogant Darkglow Clan. However, "That is a great idea. But the items he has are still far more precious than that."
