Chapter 121 Pearl City Qie Yue (3)_1
Sun Kui and Lei Xiaohu were furious when they learned about Sang Yu and her mother’s situation. However, Sang Yu said, "They are just irrelevant people. I’m not even angry, so why are you?" which calmed them both down.
"If I encounter that so-called Master Niu in Holy Sea City, I swear I’ll beat him so badly his own mother won’t recognize him!" Sun Kui finally said viciously.
In mid-September, all the students heading to Holy Sea City returned to Empire College. Dugu Qianye found some time to discuss the subsequent plans with Xie Ping, the most important being how to ensure the safety of the students should there be a conflict with the Divine Temple.
To bring the principal and Youwu back from Holy Sea City was something Xie Ping himself wasn’t very confident about. He just wanted to have a legitimate reason to look for them, and as for the situation after finding them, they could only adapt to the circumstances at that time.
Dugu Qianye told Xie Ping about Mo Chi and the others going to Holy Sea City. Xie Ping was quite pleased when he heard this. Although he didn’t know how they were planning to go, having three more Phantom Venerables would surely increase their strength by a significant margin, wouldn’t it?
Once all the students had gathered, Xie Ping led them to Pearl City.
Pearl City is located on the easternmost edge of the Xuanyue Continent. Although not very large, it is the most prestigious city along the eastern coastline of the Xuanyue Continent, because it serves as the gateway to the Divine Temple. The residents in the city are either followers of the Divine Temple or its members. Pearl City is also under the jurisdiction of the Divine Temple. The City Lord of Pearl City is Fen Yi, the Senior Disciple of the Wind Temple Master. It is said that Fen Yi is highly favored by the Wind Temple Master. Due to its special status, not just anyone can enter Pearl City; one must possess a token from the Divine Temple.
The group included Dugu Qianye, the first-ranked individual in the personal competition; Dan Jingtian, the third-ranked individual; a total of 15 people from the top three teams in the group competition; Mo Feng and He Lian, the first and third-ranked in the Elixir competition; as well as Shui Wei, the second-ranked in the Beast Taming competition, who was the first girl to take a Zengyuan Pill at that time. Additionally, there were 10 other representatives, making a total of 30 people.
After more than ten days of hard travel, Dugu Qianye and the others finally arrived in Pearl City. With the token provided by the Divine Temple, they quickly completed the entry procedures. Upon entering the city, everyone couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
Though Pearl City was not large, it was incredibly lavish. The well-arranged buildings were exquisitely maintained and radiated a serene sanctity that made one feel that speaking loudly would be a desecration of the environment.
