Chapter 24 - Leaving the city

Xie Meiyu hearing this was surprised and quickly retracted her face with a smile.

--"Haha, I'm sure Young Master likes to tell jokes..." She said and quickly spoke again after pausing for a moment.

--"I'm sorry, I saw you almost unconscious and I thought something had happened to you, I almost hit you to see if you would react, I didn't expect you to suddenly open your eyes, you took me by surprise." She culminated calmly, quickly deflecting the conversation.

Tang Yin only shrugged his shoulders.

--"I was looking at my condition, several wounds have opened up this time, I needed to check my insides." Tang Yin replied, then stood up.

--"Miss Xie, did you finish what I ordered for you?" he asked after standing up, and Xie Meiyu nodded, then grabbed a huge tray behind her and passed it to Tang Yin.

Tang Yin then looked at each of the sharp 'weapons' on the tray and touched them they were still a little warm.

There were of various shapes and sizes, but most were no more than 15 centimeters long, still, their gleaming edge was a bit scary.

Tang Yin then pulled a liquid from his inventory, though he made it as if to draw it from inside his shirt.

He had learned that in this world they used a thing called a Storage Bag to store things inside, these Bags are things several levels below the Rings they used in his world. And his inventory is several levels above those rings, so he had to act with caution.

He then grabbed the dark red liquid and sprayed it on top of these weapons.

Xie Meiyu thought she was going to see the liquid spray all over the tray, but surprisingly, each of the weapons absorbed it as if they were a hole.

This left her stunned.

--"They absorb it?" She asked in shock, and Tang Yin smiled.

--"It is a special poison; it is used to enhance the sharpness of these weapons and make them more deadly and durable." Tang Yin said.

Then she was even more stunned, but she said nothing.

She was pensive.

She had only met him twice in a few days, but this young man in front of her, more than a decade younger than her, had already given her huge surprises with his knowledge and ability. Besides, she still can't understand Tang Yin's background, which keeps her thoughtful.

Tang Yin then looked at her.

--"Thank you very much, Miss Xie, for helping me this time. I don't want to cause you any trouble, so when she wakes up, we'll leave." Tang Yin said with a smile as he sincerely thanked Xie Meiyu.

She gave a small sigh and nodded, then looked at Huang Feifei who was lying unconscious nearby.

--"They used a drug to put her to sleep, and she will soon wake up. But I don't understand, what happened, why are your clothes so stained with blood? I noticed that you have many open wounds on your body, what happened?" she asked doubtfully.

--"A certain Huang Liuji wanted to rape her and brought many young masters to catch her." Tang Yin replied as he looked at her as well.

Xie Meiyu turned her face to look at him.

--"The son of that Huang Family? That's dangerous, you know, how did you manage to rescue her?" She asked in surprise.

--"Well, I was around at the time and those guys were idiots. Although there were many of them, they still didn't know how to fight, I killed some of them to make them think that my goal was to kill them and then I ran away with her." Tang Yin said as he shrugged his shoulders mockingly.

'Those guys fought so hard inside those smokes, thinking it was a surprise attack, and possibly in the end it was that they realized that my goal was to rescue her.' Tang Yin thought the smirk on his face could not be wiped off.

But Xie Meiyu was deeply shocked.

--"You killed cultivators while being crippled?" She asked in shock with a shout, but quickly covered her mouth with her hands noticing her mistake, and Tang Yin smiled at her and nodded.

--"Surprised?" Tang Yin asked mischievously as he looked at her a little closely.

He couldn't get enough of this beautiful face.

And she nodded.

More than surprised she was right now, but then she frowned a little.

--"Still, that's dangerous, Young Master. Lord Huang is a Spiritual Lord Realm First Level Cultivator, he is one of the few in this city who have reached that level." Xie Meiyu said, and Tang Yin looked at her and nodded to thank her for the information.

'Spirit Lord Realm is not compared to Miss Xie even a little bit, but he is very powerful to me right now.' Tang Yin thought as he frowned.

After the Body Spiritual Strengthening Realm, which is the first Cultivation Realm, came the Spiritual Entry Realm, which is the second Cultivation Realm. Above this was the Spiritual Master Realm, and then the Fourth Cultivation Realm is the Spiritual Lord Realm.

A cultivator in the Fourth Realm is a strong cultivator that Tang Yin could not kill even if he is asleep in front of him. He can still do something against a Third Realm Cultivator with the weapons he has now, but the Fourth Realm is too much.

That's why he needed to think even more about his moves from here.

--"Besides, there's something else." She said, and Tang Yin then looked at her again.

--"What is it?" he asked.

--"The Huang Family here is just a branch, Young Master Tang. The main Family is in the Imperial Capital, being part of the 7 Great Families in the capital, they have a powerful Spirit King." She replied with a smile as she looked at Tang Yin to see his reaction.

Tang Yin raised his eyebrows slightly but simply nodded after hearing that.

Above the Fourth Realm, the Spiritual Lord Realm is the Fifth Realm: The Spiritual Ancestor Realm, and even above this comes the Sixth Cultivation Realm: The Spiritual King Realm, in which Xie Meiyu is located.

These two Cultivation Realms are already considered the greatest powers in such an Empire, and not to be outdone the force exerted by people of that level is overwhelming. With their mere presence, they can overwhelm you.

But Tang Yin was not entirely surprised.

Mainly because to the current him, there wasn't much difference between a Spirit Lord and a Spirit King, even if these had a difference of 2 Cultivation Realms. That's because whoever he faced, he only had one fate: to die.

Therefore, he was not surprised, but he thought of something and looked at Huang Feifei.

--"I think Miss Huang will have some little problems when she finds out then, it seems that avenging her friend will take her longer." Tang Yin said calmly.

--"Oh? So, she's Miss Huang Feifei, no wonder she's so pretty." Xie Meiyu said with a smile as she looked at her.

She really didn't care about the rest of what Tang Yin had said because it was none of his business.

Just as they were talking, Huang Feifei opened her eyes slowly and was disoriented, looking from side to side without understanding what was going on, but when she saw Tang Yin, she was astonished, and Tang Yin approached her.

--"Miss Huang, are you all right?" Tang Yin asked as he ran his hand over her back to check her condition.

She kept looking at him in surprise, not taking her beautiful eyes off him.

--"I... This, hadn't I been kidnapped?" She asked softly not understanding what was going on, then she looked at the other person in the room and was amazed at the beautiful woman here, this woman gave her a suffocating feeling, as if she was too powerful.

Tang Yin then gave her a little tap and nodded to her.

--"Fortunately, I arrived in time and was able to rescue you, so don't worry about the rest, I'll tell you about it later. Right now, we are at the Alchemist Association, but we shouldn't be here for long, they are looking for us all over the city." Tang Yin said, and Huang Feifei gradually recovered and lowered her head.

--"I'm sorry, Young Master, I've caused you trouble." She said, and Tang Yin simply patted her head which made her look up to see him.

--"Don't worry about it, it's no trouble at all. It would have been a problem if I let those bastards get away with it, but you're fine now and that's good." Tang Yin replied calmly, she nodded tenderly as small tears formed in the corner of her eyes, but then she nodded harder.

--"Thank you very much, Young Master. You've saved me 2 times already." She said, and Tang Yin nodded, then she looked at Xie Meiyu who had been watching them with a calm smile.

--"She is...?" Huang Feifei asked, and Tang Yin then stepped aside.

--"She is Miss Xie Meiyu, she is currently staying at this place and she was the one who received us." Tang Yin said quickly, trying to avoid a somewhat sensitive topic having to do with his lying.

He had said earlier in front of Huang Feifei, that he would come to the association to see an 'acquaintance', but in reality, he didn't have any acquaintance in this place, still, Huang Feifei believed him. That's why he would feel bad if his lie was discovered now.

Luckily for him, Huang Feifei didn't even remember.

--"It's nice to meet you, Miss Xie, my name is Huang Feifei, I hope I won't inconvenience you." She said as she stood and bowed a little to Xie Meiyu, the latter only nodded gracefully.

--"That's fine, it's nice to meet you, I had heard of Miss Huang's beauty before, and now that I see her, I can tell that she is worthy of her reputation." She replied, and after seeing that Huang Feifei nodded with embarrassment, she looked at Tang Yin.

--"Young Master Tang, what will you do from now on, do you plan to leave the city?" she asked, and Tang Yin nodded.

--"Is there anything else I can do now?" Tang Yin asked mockingly to himself, then looked at Huang Feifei.

--"I will accompany Miss Huang to the Blizzard Empire so that she can cultivate quietly and from there I will see what to do, I still need to look for the necessary ingredients to be able to cure myself." Tang Yin said and then remembered the recipe, so he immediately took out a piece of paper and passed it to Xie Meiyu.

--"Miss Xie, may I ask if you have any of these herbs or materials here, in these quantities?" Tang Yin asked, and Xie Meiyu looked with interest at the paper Tang Yin had passed to her.

'What the heck is this, an alchemical recipe? Or could it be something concerning poisons?' She thought in amazement as she looked at the diversity of herbs and materials labeled here.

Though then she shook her head, 'No, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with any of these. Possibly they won't be used together.' She thought firmly, and after reading through everything, she nodded a little.

--"There are some, but not in those quantities..." She replied as she thought, and Tang Yin was glad.

Even if they only had 1 of them here, it was already a big breakthrough.

--"Okay, Miss Xie, can you sell me the ones you have? I'll be grateful to you if you do." Tang Yin said.

Xie Meiyu looked at him and then nodded.

--"All right, Young Master, wait a moment and I'll bring them to you." She said and left the room, but it wasn't long before she returned with the materials on a tray.

--"Young Master, this is all we have here." She said as she passed it to him, Tang Yin then smiled after seeing them, seeing that the age was right and the materials were right.

After that, he put them away and paid the same amount as it said on the note: 5,000 Spiritual Gold Coins.

They were expensive by the standards of this world, but Tang Yin didn't care about the price, even if they cost 10 times their value, he would find a way to buy them without flinching. Because on these materials depended his future recovery. His future revenge, his whole future.

After that, Tang Yin nodded to Xie Meiyu.

--"Thank you very much, Miss Xie. I will thank you more properly in the future." Tang Yin said and planned to take his leave, but Xie Meiyu stopped him.

--"Young Master, why don't you let me help you? I can take the two of you out and send you away, without those guys being able to touch a hair on your head." She said with a smile, and Tang Yin looked at her.

'Hm, that makes sense. A Spirit King like her, she should have no problem getting us out of here without those guys even being able to notice...' Tang Yin thought, then nodded to Xie Meiyu.

--"That's fine, Miss Xie. I'll leave it to you then." He replied and then nodded to Huang Feifei. She had nothing to say.

She also had no place to go back to in this city for now, so it was best to leave this place and cooperate with Tang Yin who has always helped her, to get to the Blizzard Empire well.

Then the 3 of them nodded and walked out of there.
