Chapter 110

The next day, golden rays of sunshine shone down as the light autumn breeze blew. Having the warm sun shining down with a cooling breeze felt great. The cultivation fanatics, Chor Shing Chit and Chui Yim, had even stopped cultivating to enjoy the weather.

The metropolis in front of them was now within sight. Be it Southary, Night Lion City or any of the other cities they travelled to, none could compare to this city in front of them. Even if the South fell, as long as the Souths Five were safe, the South could make a comeback eventually. Thus, the Souths Five were the most well-guarded cities in the South.

Southern Ping will definitely pique your interest. Bak Wun bit onto a straw, looking like an actual coachman. This city wasnt named Ping as in pacification. Its named after the Ping Clan.

The Ping Clan Chui Yim muttered.

He was no stranger to the clan; he had read about them in many different books, especially medicine books. They were seen as the greatest medicine clan in the world, besides being proficient in alchemy. Even countless Northerners would make the long trip down to purchase elixirs made by the Ping Clan. G-elixirs were primarily used in battle. They could instantly increase ones strength, and the Ping Clan had a monopoly over the elixir market as great master alchemists were all invited to join the major clans for a huge salary, so it was rare to find any elixirs for sale on the market.

Alchemists that had yet to reach the great master stage could only refine grade one and two g-elixirs which were almost useless to three-chambered gliphers and above. Besides alchemy, the Ping Clan were experts in medicine too. Many travelled miles to Southern Ping to get treated, detoxified or touched up on their gliphs by famous doctors. Because of the Ping Clans unique status, all the clans in Southern Ping made a living through medicine and acknowledged the Ping Clan as their leader.

The trio felt that something was off when they reached the city gate of Southern Ping. Many people were leaving the city with their families, acting like they were escaping from some monster. Not only did the guards not stop them, but they also wore serious expressions. They were the only ones entering the city.

The night wolf moved forward. Despite being a commoner, the guards could tell that it wasnt an ordinary beast.

Brother, may I ask whats going on? Bak Wun asked with a friendly smile.

Seeing the curtains of the coach roll up, the guards spotted Chui Yim sitting in the coach and answered seriously, Noble lords, I can tell that you are not ordinary, but the city is now unsafe. Poltergeists have repeatedly appeared in our city for the past few months.

The trio exchanged glances without reply.

Im speaking the truth! It was said that a malicious spirit roamed the streets at night, eating teenagers for food. A few dozen teenagers have already fallen victim to it. Yesterday, the spirit even broke into a residence in the west and the entire family of three went missing, leaving only bloody traces behind, sensing that the trio didnt believe him, the guard quickly continued.

Did your noble selves not see everyone fleeing the city? They did so out of fear, as many dare not stay anymore. The guard gulped. If not because Im single, which the spirit avoids, I wouldve left too.

Yeah, thats why they booked the whole top floor.

The Outstanding Talents Society gathering is where all the talented youths meet.

This is just the Ping Clans way of buying over the hearts of all the geniuses. A sneer was heard. To be honest, who is better than Mister Ping in medicinal theory?

Everyone nodded when they heard that name. I heard that Mister Ping is only twelve this year. Hes so skilled in alchemy that he can already refine grade one elixirs. Mister Ping is also said to be extremely talented; he hasnt broken through his innate wind chamber even now. Most gliphists are late bloomers, so he will definitely become a powerful personage when he matures.

But another person disagreed. Mister Ping might be talented, but he still needs time to grow, unlike Mo-Yung Kit from the Mo-Yung Clan. He is eighteen and already a single-gliphic gliphist that has already broken through his innate heart chamber. He is also close to producing grade two elixirs.

Its said that the gatherings now consist of two factions, one with the Ping Clan leading and the other with the Mo-Yung Clan leading the debate.

Many of them nodded on hearing Mo-Yung Kits name. The Mo-Yung Clan is going strong nowadays. In terms of medicine, alchemy or strength, they are threatening the Ping Clans position.

The Ping Clan might have a stronger foundation, but speaking of the younger generation, Mister Ping still isnt Mister Mo-Yungs opponent.

Yeah Hes too young

Commoners always discussed the powerful, as if it made them feel closer to them. Being more experienced, Bak Wun and Chor Shing Chit werent interested while Chui Yim listened intently. He had spent his whole past life forging and didnt have much experience travelling, and he was interested in such gossip as a result.

After some time, loud gasps were heard. Its Mo-Yung Kit

The Outstanding Talents Soceity gathering will soon begin.

The crowd lowered their volume and looked outside to see the handsome Mo-Yung Kit walk in with a smile. He went towards the stairs immediately and went to the top floor. Those on the ground floor held their breaths and remained silent, hoping to eavesdrop on the debate.

Chui Yim and the rest found it funny. This was completely unexpected as the restaurant was randomly chosen. It seemed that this restaurant wasnt famous for its food, but for the monthly gathering instead.
