Chapter 368: Peaceful Times (1/2)
It was still 8 o'clock in the morning and yet there was already so much activity in the streets.
Same as the recent months, there seemed to be a crusade of sorts unto a particular part of the city.
At its heart lay the city lord's domain where the masses were lured by the promise of riches and change.
But different from the past, a lone magnificent carriage drove into the midst of this gathering. Everyone in attendance could not help but pause and bowed at where they stood.
With the popular insignia of the Han family on the body of this vehicle, no one dared to throw disrespect at this time.
”A bounty of only 10,000 spirit stones, huh?”
”This might be big to the poor kids in this city.”
”But to the experts of this world, this amount is worthless.”
”There must be a secret hidden behind this ploy.” Our bored gamer mused when he recalled the details of this upcoming Heavenly Expedition.
Although he had no prior knowledge about the history of this world but he guessed that all the past ones summoned only the elite of the 4 continents.
Just one call would be enough since the strong was never content in their present status. They always needed to have more.
So the inclusion of low leveled cultivators was truly a mystery in the mind of our very own protagonist.
”Ohhh well... at least this would serve my purpose well enough.” Clark whispered and sported a calm smile thereafter.
With a relaxed pace of the horses, the carriage arrived in the city lord's mansion in approximately 1 hour.
”Good morning, Senior Clark!”
”Senior Clark, well met!”
”How are you today, master?!” The people outside the gates immediately noticed the familiar guise of our bored gamer.
His robes shone to a brilliant red under the slowly awakening gaze of the sun and his ordinary face remained unremarkable as ever.
Alas, the people who saw him could not help but shiver under our good gamer's mighty presence.
Everyone knew that this was a man who had killed an Earth Realm Expert in mere breaths!
”You are all polite.” Clark replied softly and then walked through the gates without ado. It did not need saying that his arrival has shaken up the top dogs in this house.

”Why is Senior Clark here?” City Lord Zhang Yun asked himself after he got the news from Duan Ya.
He did not waste time to linger in nonsense but immediately went out to greet this evil star. Zhang Yun was not alone in his worries.
”FLASH!”
”FLASH!”
”FLASH!”

Several figures materialized suddenly in the distance. They were wise enough to not get closer to our avid gamer in fear that they would lose their head in the aftermath.
