Capítulo 1392: Chapter 1392: Damn, Even Third-World Hanging Tickets Are a Thing Now! (2 Updates)
“I heard the flying vessel came ahead of schedule, everyone quickly go register, otherwise there won’t be any seats left!” Ye Haochuan and the others were still wandering around the town when they heard someone nearby exclaim excitedly.
Guan Ling seized the opportunity to stop this person and asked, “Isn’t the flying vessel supposed to arrive tomorrow? How come it’s a full day early?”
“From Shimen Town to Xuantian City is just a two-day journey, only delayed because the route passes through the territories of several formidable demon beasts. This time, arriving early suggests the journey was quite peaceful!” the person explained.
The name of this town, Shimen Town, carries the meaning of a portal leading to the secular world.
“Demon beast territories? Aren’t they dangerous?” Guan Ling asked with some concern.
“Of course it’s dangerous if you’re traveling alone, but there are Nascent Soul experts escorting the flying vessel, so it’s extremely safe.”
The person pretended to be profound and said, “I’ve heard that the escorting expert this time is a Nascent Soul Mid-Stage expert from the Ji Family. No demon beast would dare to provoke them, hence the flying vessel’s smooth arrival.”
After speaking, he seemed impatient and quickly said, “Alright, I won’t keep chatting. There are limited seats on this flying vessel; if you’re late, you’ll just have to wait for the next one!”
Before he finished his sentence, he had already walked far away.
“We should hurry too!” Ye Haochuan suggested.
The group nodded, quickly following Ye Haochuan to the square. Soon, they arrived.
This so-called flying vessel was a huge disc-shaped metal object, somewhat like the UFOs rumored in the secular world. Obviously, it was an extraordinary flying magical treasure.
“Wow, there are so many people!” Looking at the long queue waiting outside the flying vessel, everyone couldn’t help but sigh.
Though people were numerous, no one cut in line; the queue moved forward orderly and slowly. After about half an hour, it was finally their turn.
“Five thousand spirit crystals!” The ticket seller was an old woman at Core Formation Mid-Stage, her tone somewhat impatient.
Wow, with this service attitude, she’d definitely be fired in the secular world!
Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but sigh.
Su Zehao and the others were stunned by the ticket price. Five thousand superior spirit crystals were equivalent to fifty million low-grade spirit crystals.
If Ye Haochuan hadn’t given each of them a million, their savings from the secular world wouldn’t even afford one ride on the flying vessel.
No wonder people here looked down on outsiders; outsiders truly seem like paupers.
With a moment of reflection, the group paid the spirit crystals and each received a green jade token. Holding the jade token, the four queued to board the vessel.
“Hold on!” Just as the last, Ye Haochuan, was about to board, a shout suddenly stopped him.
Ye Haochuan turned to look, only to see near him a lean man approaching with an aura clearly at Nascent Soul Mid-Stage.
“Is this the Ji Family expert escorting us?” Ye Haochuan was slightly surprised and saluted the lean man.
In the Xuanmen, those with higher cultivation are revered. He gave a simple salute, not feeling demeaned.
But this lean man kept his face stern and expressionless, coldly saying, “The cabin is full. Come with me, I’ll arrange a separate place for you later!”
Ye Haochuan guessed correctly; this man was indeed Ji Yuan from the Ji Family.
“Full? Aren’t there many empty seats inside?” Guan Ling asked puzzled.
Ji Yuan suddenly let out a cold snort, “Are you questioning me?”
As he spoke, his Nascent Soul stage aura instantly emanated, causing Guan Ling and the others to shiver. Guan Ling initially intended to offer his seat to Ye Haochuan, but was so intimidated by the lean man that he swallowed his words.
Seeing this, Ye Haochuan hurriedly mediated, “It’s fine, you all go in first. Since this senior said he’d arrange a spot for me, I trust he wouldn’t deceive me!”
“But…”
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine!” Ye Haochuan smiled calmly, waving them on.
The three had no choice and slowly entered the cabin.
“Go wait over there!” Ji Yuan pointed casually next to the flying vessel, expressionless, speaking to Ye Haochuan.
Ye Haochuan was about to head over when he saw the person right behind him directly boarding the flying vessel. Grinning, he asked, “Wasn’t it said there were no spots left? How come they’re boarding?”
“They’re VIPs, are you?” Ji Yuan snorted coldly.
VIP? V your damned P!
Ye Haochuan sneered internally, clearly realizing Ji Yuan was deliberately targeting him.
Being new here, he had no interaction with Ji Yuan before. Ji Yuan targeting him this way could only be the work of that fat man causing mischief.
At this moment, he suddenly sensed someone watching him, turning to see who else could it be but Second Young Master Bai?
At the moment, Second Young Master Bai was still being carried by a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators, slowly advancing toward the flying vessel. His gaze at Ye Haochuan was full of amusement and disdain.
It seems like it’s time to find a chance to teach this guy a lesson; his tail is almost wagging to the sky!
Ye Haochuan sneered internally.
With that fat pig, Second Young Master Bai, boarding the flying vessel, the boarding process was complete.
Ji Song finally approached Ye Haochuan, leading him beside the flying vessel, saying, “There’s no more space inside. There’s a handle here; you can hang on here. You, a Core Formation Mid-Stage cultivator, shouldn’t have trouble hanging on, right?”
Damn, they’ve even set up hang tickets like in Ah San’s country; clearly, this guy has gone to great lengths to mess with me!
Ye Haochuan sneered inwardly.
Looking at the handle’s appearance, it was obviously just attached, clearly set up specifically to mess with him.
Ye Haochuan glanced with interest at Ji Yuan, thinking this guy is really quite cunning.
If he had said it was a hang ticket earlier, Guan Ling and the others definitely wouldn’t have boarded; they’d rather wait for the next ride.
Now that he’s gotten Guan Ling and the others aboard, with the hatch closed, they couldn’t get off. If Ye Haochuan didn’t hang here, he’d be separated from Guan Ling and the others.
Both Guan Ling and the others had just broken into Core Formation and were coming to the Sub-Shaking Dimension Realm for the first time. Setting out alone increased their danger significantly.
Ji Yuan had surely anticipated Ye Haochuan wouldn’t let Guan Ling and the others go first, using this tactic.
Feeling conned, Ye Haochuan was quite displeased. But new to the area, unfamiliar and unacquainted, he couldn’t find an opportunity to resist. After all, the other was a Nascent Soul Mid-Stage expert, confronting him head-on wasn’t advantageous.
Fine then, hang ticket it is. Let’s see what you all can do to me!
Ye Haochuan sneered internally, gripping the handle.
Ji Yuan discreetly let out a cold laugh, then turned and boarded the flying vessel.
This was Ye Haochuan’s first time to the Sub-Shaking Dimension Realm, ultimately underestimating its dangers.
He thought with his strength, even hanging outside he could safely reach Xuantian City. Little did he know, Second Young Master Bai and Ji Song had no intention of letting him arrive there alive.
