Chapter 1366 Storage
"You should keep these for yourself. You'll need them a lot in the future."
"When we get to Feiyun City, I'm still waiting for you to introduce me to that National Advisor!"
Chen Yang not only rejected the gifts but also emphasized the matter of introduction.
Lie Changsheng initially thought that Venerable Chen Yang disliked the elixirs. However, after hearing him out, he realized that Venerable Chen Yang genuinely wanted to meet the National Advisor he spoke of.
As the group re-boarded the flying demonic beasts, Tian Huihuang began to subtly inquire about Chen Yang's identity and origins.
After all, the power Chen Yang displayed seemed to far surpass the strongest beings in the Fallen Immortal Mountain.
Although Tian Huihuang wasn't particularly fond of collecting intelligence in private, he was very concerned about the existence of the strongest individuals.
Chen Yang seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, with no prior impression or rumors about him.
"It's better for you if you inquire less about this matter. It's for your own good."
"I'll tell you more on our way back."
Lie Changsheng was the only one who knew that Chen Yang had gone out to eliminate all the bandit troops and wild wolves.
The flying demonic beasts did not fly directly over the cities on the way. According to Tian Huihuang, demonic beasts had certain restrictions within the Feiyun Dynasty, especially within cities, where they couldn't disturb others.
Not only demonic beasts, but cultivators were also not allowed to fly directly.
The Beast Taming Sect, with its vast structure, had clear regulations in this regard, and they had to abide by the local rules.
Otherwise, the trouble caused for the Beast Taming Sect would ultimately fall upon the individuals.
Their expenses for several years might have to be covered by themselves.
Tian Huihuang did not want to get into such trouble.
Chen Yang had initially wanted to see other cities, but after hearing this explanation, he didn't say anything.
From the two of them, Chen Yang had already obtained a considerable amount of information.
Although the Feiyun Dynasty was vast, there weren't significant differences between its cities. Most cities were composed of several towns and villages. Except for the true heartland of the dynasty, each city could only protect its own territory and some nearby areas.
Places further away couldn't be protected at all.
Chen Yang's brows twitched. "The bandit forces seem to have quite a large territory!"
Chen Yang had initially thought that the group of bandits causing trouble at Fallen Immortal Mountain were the main force of the roving rebels.
But now it seemed that they were only a part of the main force.
Lie Changsheng gave a wry smile, his face showing a hint of helplessness. "According to our intelligence analysis over this period, there are also internal conflicts among the bandit forces."
"The group led by Qu Jinshong wanted to cooperate with the demonic beasts, which is why they went to Fallen Immortal Mountain."
"There's another group that roams between the cities. Rumor has it they want to merge and attack the imperial lineage of the Feiyun Dynasty. Of course, this is just a rumor, and I don't believe they have that much courage!"
"These people are good at bullying ordinary citizens. When they truly encounter the main forces of each city, they run faster than anyone."
As Lie Changsheng spoke, a surge of anger rose in his chest.
He despised such people the most.
Since they were cultivators, they should compete with cultivators!
"These people were sent to prison for various reasons back then. I can't believe they haven't changed after so long!"
The more Lie Changsheng spoke, the angrier he became. He couldn't help but slap his thigh forcefully, exclaiming in anger, "Kill them when you see them, kill them in pairs!"
"These people shouldn't exist in this world!"
Chen Yang could understand the hatred in Lie Changsheng's heart, and it was precisely for this reason that Chen Yang was willing to sit and talk with him.
Along the way, the three of them chatted from all sorts of topics, from the north and south to local delicacies, making Lie Changsheng and Tian Huihuang forget that Venerable Chen Yang's strength was not on the same level as theirs.
As a city gradually appeared in the distant sky, Lie Changsheng let out a sigh of relief. "We've finally arrived!"
Earlier on the road, Lie Changsheng had some concerns about the three of them encountering bandits. Although Venerable Chen Yang's strength meant he wasn't afraid of their ambushes, it would delay Venerable Chen Yang's matters.
Although Chen Yang hadn't explicitly shown his regard for the Tian Qin Domain, the two could sense some subtle clues from Chen Yang's various inquiries.
The flying demonic beasts did not head directly to Feiyun City but landed on an open-air plaza outside the city.
While it was called a plaza, it was essentially a parking area for demonic beasts.
When Chen Yang and the others landed, there were quite a few demonic beasts taking off and landing on the entire plaza.
After Tian Huihuang greeted a few acquaintances, he hurried to Chen Yang and said, "Please wait for me for a moment. I need to store the demonic beast."
Seeing that Tian Huihuang was also going into the city, Lie Changsheng couldn't help but glance at Chen Yang again. He felt as if he had missed many things.
Lie Changsheng naturally dared not inquire too much about why Tian Huihuang was following the two of them.
This time, he was merely a guide.
Chen Yang initially expected to wait for a long time, but to his surprise, it was truly just a moment.
Moreover, Chen Yang stood there and observed the entire process.
As a sect with a vast structure, the Beast Taming Sect had its own procedures for everything.
Tian Huihuang took a token and then led people to take his flying demonic beast away before returning to Chen Yang's side.
Chen Yang asked with some curiosity, "This token is for collecting the demonic beast when leaving, isn't it?"
Chen Yang took the token and saw that it only had a number on it, likely indicating the enclosure where the demonic beast was kept.
Tian Huihuang nodded and explained, "The longer the demonic beast is stored, the more it costs. Besides the demonic beasts of our Beast Taming Sect, other people's demonic beasts can also be stored here."
"However, our cost is only a fraction of others'. After all, we are all insiders, so you only need to pay the cost price."
As he spoke, Tian Huihuang began to explain the various expenses of demonic beast storage. The so-called storage wasn't just about building a place to protect the demonic beast, but also about being responsible for its daily feeding, drinking, and sanitation.
These tasks could also be taken on within the Beast Taming Sect and were one of the important ways for disciples to earn extra money.
As the few of them walked and talked, preparing to enter the city, a demonic beast suddenly charged towards them.
"Ah! Quick, quick! Get out of the way!"
Chen Yang looked up in the direction of the voice and saw a winged fierce tiger charging towards them.
"A demonic beast at the fifth level of the Core Formation realm! Whose demonic beast is this!"
"This is going to be trouble!"
The Beast Taming Sect disciples guarding here felt their hearts tighten at the sight.
