Chapter 15: Lionheart Town
Sage stayed in the tomb for three months. He would have stayed even longer, but the solitude was wearing on him. Hed already been trapped in the mines for half a year against his will, and adding on another three months was already too much. The only reason he had was simply because the true Insect Immortal Index was just too engrossing. Partly because it was so powerful, but mainly because he already knew the basic technique. This advanced version felt like his eyes were being opened, a fog in his mind had lifted. The true potential of this technique was truly limitless.
I havent really seen any other techniques in this world, but this one is focused on growth and experimentation. Thats got to be the fastest right? Well, unless I can find one of those ones that make you train a hundred times faster.The initial instance of this chapter being available happened at N0v3l.Bin.
Thankfully, Sage was able to just walk right out. He thanked the Great Ancestor again for his help before leaving and found that all he had to do was touch the door and it opened for him. Heading up the many flights of stairs and touching that door as well. The sunlight hitting his face was so very refreshing. Turning away from the main Lang Clan compound he headed towards Lionheart Town.
In Lionheart Town, a middle-aged man was drinking a cup of tea at a teahouse. The usual style for most restaurants here was based around many open air windows. The buildings had multiple floors and the walls usually only reached up to table height with pillars holding up the higher levels. Everyone enjoyed the open air dining with roofs to keep out the weather and the lack of modern technology meant it was a lot cooler in the summer. The middle-aged man blinked a few times as he noticed a passerby. It looked quite a lot like that person who had walked around the Lang Clan compound and then walked into their tomb.
Rising to his feet, he quickly left a coin on the table and rushed out. Passing another coin to someone near the door of the teahouse along with a few words before he stepped out onto the streets.
Walking down the street, Sage looked down and realized he looked like a homeless person. His only set of clothing had been continuously worn for nearly ten months now, it was barely more than threads in many places and had so many holes he felt every gust of wind. Remembering he had some money now from inside the storage ring he stopped at the first clothing store he saw and walked inside. Not familiar with buying clothing here, he was surprised to find out that most clothing really only came in a handful of sizes and most of them were for children! Pre-constructed clothing only really came in a small and large size, essentially for a normal or fat person and that was about the extent of it. Poor people just had to deal with it, trousers had a rope belt to tighten to most sizes, the shirt was loose, and the robes also tied with a belt. Those with money usually custom fit and tailored clothing or even had them custom made from fabrics of their choice.
The four businesses are Iron Mountain, Thousand Treasures, Lotus Valley, and the Black Dog Company.
Iron Mountain is basically a bank. They have vaults to guard treasures and fortunes, give out loans, change money, and even offer protection services. Theyre all from a super powerful sect that nobody dares to mess with even though nobody knows where they exactly come from. The Iron Mountain members are notoriously silent and no outsiders are ever hired or trusted by them.
Thousand Treasures runs not only an auction house but a massive business based on buying and selling magical items, natural treasures, and all sorts of other rare goods. If you want something out of the ordinary its the place to go.
Lotus Valley is the home of vices. They deal in all sorts of pleasures. Food, wine, drugs, women, gambling, you name it. Everything is high quality and high class, unless you dont want it to be. Whatever you desire, theyll give it to you for a price.
Black Dog Company. The most famous mercenary organization in 10,000 Wave Province. Cultivators simply take a test and will get awarded a badge based on their rank. The badge level determines what missions they can take and they get paid based on their performance. Theres no guarantees with their services but they highly punish any member who betrays their employers and the badge system gives the employers a modicum of trust in the strength of those they hire.
These four major businesses were said to not only be present in the 10,000 Wave Province but many others. Sage wasnt exactly sure as it wasnt something the Lang Clan really cared about. They simply knew the four major businesses were not to be trifled with even by the Chong Clan! Getting on their bad side wasnt even something the Lang Clan even imagined. Sage was here to join the Black Dog Company and sign up for a mission to take him to another city. Lionheart Town and even the whole Jade Spirit County was too dangerous for him as a member of the Lang Clan. He didnt want to end up like the rest of the clan.
