"Damn, this really is strange. From the outside, this planet’s Spiritual Energy doesn’t seem weak, so why is it so scarce inside?" Yun Yang muttered with a puzzled look.
This was already the fifth time he had said this, because ever since they entered this world, they were dumbfounded to find that the Spiritual Energy here was frighteningly scarce.
Not only that, they had flown over a dozen cities and still hadn’t seen a single cultivator.
How could this not leave him bewildered?
Xue An remained silent and smiling throughout, while Yun Yang, unable to contain himself, turned to ask.
"Ling Zun, what do you think is going on? Why do I feel there’s something fishy here?"
Xue An replied calmly, "What’s so fishy? This planet is in the Starry Sea, yet it has always been unknown, doesn’t that indicate that it’s actually a barren land of Spiritual Energy? What’s so strange about that?"
"That should logically be the case, but Xue An used to be the Red Lotus Immortal Venerable. Why would he choose to establish a sect on such a barren land? It’s like a bald man buying a comb, totally pointless," Yun Yang said, frowning.
Xue An stopped and looked at him, and suddenly asked, "May I ask what is your current cultivation level?"
"I... I’m certainly nowhere near you, I’m just at Great Luo, heh heh!" Yun Yang said, a bit sheepishly.
In fact, even his Great Luo level was achieved through opportunistic and shady means.
Of course, he definitely couldn’t mention these things to Xue An.
Xue An nodded, "Oh, I see. I was just wondering if you also achieved the Immortal Venerable level, otherwise how could you speculate about the actions of an Immortal Venerable?"
Xue An’s words made Yun Yang’s face turn red and then green, very embarrassed, but he couldn’t find a reason to refute.
Because Xue An was indeed right, in the Multiverse, a difference of one cultivation level meant a world of difference.
Not to mention that he was still unimaginably far from the Immortal Venerable level, such a gap was enough to make them entirely different species.
So, there’s an unbreakable principle in the Multiverse, that speculating about a much stronger person with one’s own experience is a laughable thing.
Yun Yang obediently shut his mouth.
Xue An looked up at the distant horizon and said calmly, "I can sense there’s a huge city up ahead, with what we are looking for there."
Saying this, Xue An stepped forward and flew ahead.
Leaving Yun Yang and others looking at each other in dismay.
"Brother Yang, what do we do?"
"Nonsense, of course, we follow!"
Saying this, Yun Yang hurriedly chased after, but when he saw Xue An’s back, a trace of sinister desire flashed in his eyes.
Just as expected.
In a few moments, a magnificent city appeared in the wilderness ahead.
The city covered a vast area, and even from a distance, one could see the endless streams of people inside and faintly hear the sounds of hustle, indicating how prosperous the city was.
Most notably, the city had no walls, and all the buildings were arranged according to some order, giving a unique sense of beauty in their orderliness.
Yun Yang couldn’t help but become excited, "Wow, this city is so prosperous! Even if we can’t find Vast Righteous Academy, this indigenous city alone is worth the trip!"
Xue An’s heart stirred with a murderous intent, but he was not in a hurry to strike.
Because for him, Yun Yang and his people were just ants that could be crushed at any time, killing them wouldn’t hold any value.
He wanted to know how these people learned of this planet’s location and who betrayed the Vast Righteous Academy.
So he suppressed the killing intent in his heart, landing with a stony expression, and then stepped toward the city.
Yun Yang and others, completely unaware they just brushed against death’s door, also landed and eagerly followed him into the city.
This was a city with a distinctly classical Chinese flavor.
Several clear rivers flowed through the city, tree-lined streets offered comfortable shade, and the climate was pleasant, giving it the feel of the Jiangnan water towns of ancient China.
Of course, Yun Yang and his people couldn’t feel this atmosphere, their attention captivated entirely by the pedestrians on the streets.
On the streets, a stream of people bustled, and each face was filled with contentment and ease.
Fair-skinned, beautiful women with elegant hairdos walked past in groups, young men in blue robes recited poetry, their heads swaying as they strode through the throngs of people.
Such scenes were like a traditional Chinese painting of Jiangnan customs, making one unconsciously immersed in it.
Yun Yang was trembling with excitement, muttering softly to himself.
"We’ve hit the jackpot, really hit the jackpot! Damn, even these delicate young ladies alone could fetch a good price, not to mention these natives have developed their own unique civilization, it’s truly a rare and exquisite commodity!"
Unconsciously, he began to fantasize about the handsome bounty from selling this planet, completely oblivious to how the pedestrians were also eyeing them.
