Chapter 1763: The Prosperous Western Market (1/2)
Sheng Laoliu was certain that Li Qiye was someone of the overlord level that could shake the world. Others wouldn’t be lucky enough to meet someone like him so this was the fortune of a lifetime. Being rewarded by him was the acc.u.mulation of good deeds from his previous three lives.
That’s why he exhibited great propriety and left happily instead of continuing to bother Li Qiye.
In the meantime, s.h.i.+ Sou quietly contemplated and felt that Laoliu did it so much better than them. At this time, he realized that Li Qiye was even more terrifying than inside his imagination. Laoliu recognized this and immediately latched onto the guy’s thigh.
Even though his Senior Brother appreciated talents, he didn’t see through everything and only thought that Li Qiye was an amazing scholar. After spending the next several days with Li Qiye, s.h.i.+ Sou found out that Li Qiye was something much more.
s.h.i.+ Sou understood that Li Qiye didn’t care for Sago Palm. The guy was only doing this because his Senior Brother was respectful. The sect wouldn’t get a reward as Laoliu did just now.
s.h.i.+ Sou sighed and accepted their lives that were destined to be ordinary. If they abandoned their high posture early on, perhaps they would have been able to win Li Qiye’s favor. But now, he didn’t care for them.
He Chen didn’t dare to say anything earlier. His prior arrogance and superiority complex, at least before a mortal, were gone since even someone like Lao Liu kowtowed directly at Li Qiye.
Shen Xiaoshan didn’t think as much as she stared at Li Qiye. This man was more amazing than anyone else and she felt proud because of him.
“Okay, let’s go to see if we can pick up other good stuff.” Li Qiye smiled freely and led the group out of the alleyway.
Western Market was the largest shopping district in Jilin. It was virtually its own city with buildings spanning for a hundred miles. Shops lined up one after another with no end in sight.
All kind of stores were available in this place. There was even a popular adage - if one can’t buy something they want at Western, it means that they didn’t have enough chaos stones!
It ranged from the cheapest street front items to unbelievably high-priced supreme manuals, as long as one had enough chaos stones.
There were too many treasures in this vast market. Money and resources always poured in on a daily basis, enough to make people red in the eyes.
No one dared to cause trouble around these parts, especially with forced transactions, because Jilin was the main backer of this economic zone. Causing trouble here was the same as disrupting Jilin’s financial flow. The consequence would be unimaginable.
Once the group got here, He Chen and Shen Xiaoshan were stunned by the scene. Inexperienced youths like them had never been to Western before on their previous visits. All kind of emotions overwhelmed them.
The dazzling merchandises were an incredible sight to behold. People would need some time to settle down during their first visit.
Those from weaker sects would finally realize how tiny their home was in comparison as well as the lack of resources.
It was no exaggeration to say that a single shop in Western was wealthier than a small sect. Some even had items from Grand Emperors as highlights.
Just imagine, a few countries couldn’t even have one imperial possession unlike the shops here. Looking at it from a different angle, one would see just how powerful the Jilin Clan was.
After all, it had three Immortal Monarchs with two still alive. Ordinary great powers were far inferior in comparison.
