Chapter 520: Xie Plea
Sage stayed silent, finding this whole conversation to be quite shocking. Werent they here to recruit the Zhu Clan? How did it turn into securing shelter for their people after they lost?
Sage thought about it again and realized it wasnt all that unusual. The Zhu wasnt a part of the Chong Clan, at least in no official way and it seemed they liked it that way. If Sage was planning to war at such a scale, hed also be setting up an emergency plan for his people. The only problem was that he had a whole planet full of people. While he didnt care much for them, the truth remained that if he was truly killed his Inner World would also be destroyed. It was now contained within his Nascent Soul, so it wouldnt be broken if his body were destroyed, but it was still vulnerable if his soul was shattered.
The best he could do was send the dozen or so people he actually cared for into the Universe Ring. They wouldnt have permission to own it, but Tao Ba would probably do him the favor of letting them stay for a while after hed died before releasing them back into the world. Hopefully that would be enough for Sages enemies to leave, especially since he wasnt likely to go down without trying to hide it or toss it away so the enemy wouldnt profit from his death. Suddenly hearing that the Xie had planned for their downfall made Sage realize that this conflict was larger than he assumed. By being pulled in, he might also be forced to play a part in a war, something he had been fighting to avoid.
If things have come so far, it just means I have to get serious again.
Hed been on another planet for the last couple years, one where hed been at the top of the food chain. Now, after being back just a few months he was getting pushed into a war and that irked him. Ive been fighting with people a whole rank ahead of me for quite some time now. They sent hundreds and thousands after me for years and never stopped me. Do they think Im some weak little thing to be toyed with?The initial instance of this chapter being available happened at N0v3l.Bin.
Sage stepped forward, fixing his bright golden eyes upon the Zhu Elder, I also have an agreement with the Zhu Clan. After this is over, I will be returning. Please prepare the dowry for Zhu Jiao!
After making the announcement, he suddenly realized hed been caught up in his own internal drama and had made a bold statement, dispelling the atmosphere that was lingering in the room. The Zhu Elder had seemed to be sympathetic to the Xies Great Elder, but now Sage had interrupted the flow with a somewhat hostile statement. Xiezi, for her part, didnt seem to care. She wasnt here to beg for help, she was merely here to ensure the Zhu didnt go back on their word. On the other hand, the Zhu Elder had seemed wistful when thinking of the Xie Great Elder and now she was pulled out of it. Instead she merely smiled at Sage, Dont you worry, we will honor our agreement with the Lang, just as we shall with the Chong Xie. We Zhu will always keep our word.
The desire to continue to mingle was blown away by Sages fierce attitude and so the meeting soon came to an end. Tujiu felt quite at odds with this trip. All hed done was follow Lang Sheng around, then he got beat up and went back to following quietly. After they left the hall, Tujiu was the first to open his mouth, Are we finished now? Can we go back to Lionheart Town?
So, are we leaving now, or are we just playing around in town for a while?
She laughed at Sages impatience, Both. Well leave after we see the sights and sounds. Since were here it would be a waste not to sample all the local specialities. My friends would definitely yell at me if I didnt at least bring them back a few of the famous Plum Lanterns from Plum Lantern City.
Tujiu perked up, Plum Lanterns! Good idea. Ive heard of them, they ward away evil spirits. Girls also love their purple color. Lets get some!
Seeing how excited Tujiu was, Xiezi led them to a different street, one filled with a brilliant cacophony of paper lanterns in every conceivable shade of purple. The street was flooded with them. Street vendors selling cheap rectangular paper lanterns, small shops with a spherical paper lantern of every possible size and there was even a huge temple like building with iron, copper, bronze and many other sorts of expensive lamps and lanterns. As the namesake of their town, it wasnt surprising to see a whole street devoted to them, but the sheer variety was quite impressive.
They stopped at the first street vendor they came upon to get a closer look at what the difference between a Plum Lantern and a regular lantern with purple paper was. An experienced hand the street vendor explained, The difference between a Plum Lantern and a regular lantern is the inclusion of parts from the Earth Plum Tree. We make the wooden frames and the paper from the Earth Plum Tree, and there is a secret process to turn the plums into candles.
So, what of those metal lanterns? Are they not as good as the ones with more Earth Plum Tree wood?
The vendor shook his head, Only from the cheap vendors. The high class ones have skilled refiners that can include the Earth Plum Tree essence into their products. As for everyone else on the street, its up to you to figure out who is selling true Plum Lanterns, and who is just selling purple paper lanterns, then the man showed off his goods and continued, My own wares are one hundred percent guaranteed true Plum Lanterns! My prices are a little higher, but you wont be sorry!
The three of them were pleased to know the difference and they even bought a simple spherical paper lantern from the vendor to get a closer look and as thanks for the guidance. While Sage and Tujiu were peeking at the candle, Xiezi brought them ahead, leading them towards the massive building at the end of the street that was bound to have the best stuff. In fact, Sage could already make out that the lanterns hanging from their rafters were magic tools.
A true Blacksmith!
