Urban Dominating Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1209 1201: The New Lord (Part 1)

"Let's go back to Wind Ridge Town."

Qin Yang looked at Nangong Feiyang and the others, and said.

"Yes, Sect Leader."

Nangong Feiyang and the others responded in unison.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

With a whistling sound, the figures of Qin Yang, Nangong Feiyang, Zilan, and others flew up, transforming into streaks of light, heading towards the direction of Wind Ridge Town.

A quarter of an hour later, in the distance, a town appeared in the sight of Nangong Feiyang, Zilan, and the others.

"Brother Qin Yang, that's Wind Ridge Town, isn't it?"

Zilan asked excitedly.

After entering the Nine Provinces Sacred Domain, they went directly to the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range and hadn't visited a town where human cultivators gathered.

"Yes, that is Wind Ridge Town."

Qin Yang smiled and nodded.

At this moment, around them, many streaks of light flew by; some cultivators were riding flying mounts, while others walked on air.

However, these were all cultivators of the Immortal Spirit Realm.

On the ground, more were riding demon beast mounts, traveling in small groups, with carriages and cultivators galloping along the roads.

"It's so lively."

Watching the cultivators in the sky and on the ground rushing towards Wind Ridge Town, Leng Feng's eyes held a trace of excitement as he spoke.

As they flew closer, the scenes on the streets of Wind Ridge Town were already in sight, and even the somewhat noisy sounds could be heard.

"Yes, it's very lively. Look, how spacious the streets are; they're several times wider than the roads on Earth, and also, just like on Earth, there are many vendors along the street."

Zilan's bright eyes shone as she pointed at the scenes in the town and said.

"The layout of this town is quite large, and that town gate must be fifty or sixty meters high."

Nangong Huozhu, who was beside her, also had eyes shining with light as he spoke.

Nangong Feiyang, Bi Luoyue, and others had their sights fixed on the town.

"Hehe, let's go. If you like, I'll take you down to the streets for a look first."

Seeing everyone somewhat excited, Qin Yang smiled slightly and said.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The figures of Qin Yang, Zilan, and others flickered, descending from the sky, stopping at the town entrance.

In their sight, those cultivators flying in the sky also descended successively as they approached Wind Ridge Town.

In front of the town entrance, there were nine black-armored guards, holding long spears, standing in front of the town gate.

The one in the middle was a middle-aged man with rugged features and a short beard; the black spear in his hand glowed faintly.

The aura emanating from him had already reached the peak of the Middle Stage Immortal Spirit Realm.

"You need to pay the entrance fee!"

The middle-aged black-armored guard in the center glanced at Qin Yang and the others and said.

It must be said, Qin Yang's group were all young people with high looks, especially the young women, making the middle-aged black-armored guard take a few more glances involuntarily.

Qin Yang nodded, waved his right hand, and seven lower grade Spirit Stones appeared, flying towards the middle-aged black-armored guard.

"The current entrance fee is five lower grade Spirit Stones per person."

After the middle-aged black-armored guard received the seven lower grade Spirit Stones, he looked at Qin Yang and the others and said in a deep voice.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Qin Yang raised his eyebrows.

In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, apart from some special cities, the general city entry fee was just one lower grade Spirit Stone, let alone a small town like this.

And during Qin Yang's last visit to Wind Ridge Town, the entrance fee was also one lower grade Spirit Stone.

"When did the entrance fee change to five lower grade Spirit Stones?"

Qin Yang frowned and asked the middle-aged black-armored guard.

Not that he cared about a few Spirit Stones, but being charged unfairly was certainly annoying.

Could it be that these guards were overcharging them because of their youthful looks?

"You must be an outsider. This is the order of the Lord. Stop asking questions. If you want to enter the town, pay up quickly; there are still people waiting in line behind."

At this time, a young black-armored guard standing beside the middle-aged one barked upon seeing Qin Yang and his companions who were all young.

Hearing the young black-armored guard's words, Zilan's pretty face changed slightly; wasn't Brother Qin Yang the new lord here? When did a new lord arrive?

"Hmph."

Hearing this, Qin Yang's gaze turned cold, emanating a chilling aura as he looked at the young black-armored guard.

Under Qin Yang's gaze, the young black-armored guard shivered; it was as if he had fallen into an icy cave, trembling uncontrollably, his whole body frozen in place.

"What a terrifying aura from this young man; just a single glance brings such immense pressure."

Feeling the aura from Qin Yang, the face of the middle-aged black-armored guard, who was at the Middle Stage Immortal Spirit Realm, also changed.

"Esteemed senior, please forgive Ah Qing. His tone was not good, and I apologize on his behalf."

In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, strength commands respect. The middle-aged black-armored guard had the sense to say.

Hearing this, Qin Yang's expression softened a bit. He had already given a warning, and since the middle-aged guard's attitude was decent, there was no need for Qin Yang to pursue the matter relentlessly with a guard.

"Th-thank you, senior."

After Qin Yang looked away, the young black-armored guard stammered in gratitude, then retreated to the side.

"Now, tell me, what's going on here? When was the entrance fee changed to five lower grade Spirit Stones? And has the new lord actually arrived?"

Qin Yang's eyes turned to the middle-aged black-armored guard, frowning as he asked.

"To answer senior, the new lord has probably not arrived yet. This entrance fee isn't something we decided on our own."

"We're acting under the orders of Vice Lord Ao Wu, who claimed it's by the new lord's decree to raise the entrance fee to five lower grade Spirit Stones. It has been in effect for over a month."

The middle-aged black-armored guard explained.

"What?"

Qin Yang's eyebrows furrowed.

In Wind Ridge Town, he only knew of Zhuo Bufan; he had never even heard of this Vice Lord Ao Wu, let alone passed down any decrees.

Moreover, this decree had been in effect for over a month. It must have been shortly after he successfully auctioned off the lordship of Wind Ridge Town.

"This new lord really has a big aura. Not even here yet and already raising the town entry fee so high."

"Indeed, paying five lower grade Spirit Stones each time is quite unbearable."

"If not for needing to replenish spirit medicine and rest, I wouldn't even enter Wind Ridge Town."

"Even Celestial Cyan City only charges one lower grade Spirit Stone, and none of the dynasties ever charge this much. This new lord is really something..."

"Shh, keep your voice down. The black-armored guards are here. If the new lord hears about this, we'll be in trouble."

"..."

Seeing Qin Yang confront those black-armored guards, behind Qin Yang, several cultivators in the Immortal Master Realm had unhappy expressions and couldn't help but discuss in whispers.

Upon hearing the whispers, Qin Yang's face darkened slightly.

The expressions of Nangong Feiyang, Nangong Huozhu, and the others also shifted a bit.
