Kapitel 5: Crimson Wood City!

Chapter 5: Crimson Wood City!

The guards also looked surprised when they heard the shout. They didn't believe it immediately, but when they noticed the item in Fang Yuan's hands, they accepted it.

The Blue Wood identity didn't mean that the identity was engraved in blue wood, but the simple engraving of the image was proof. The Red Wood identity had the name, while the levels below were simple and made of rectangular cards.

Fang Yuan didn't look good when he saw the situation. Since he was in a different world, he wanted things to be calm, but that didn't seem to exist anymore.

Those already in line to enter the city, made space for Fang Yuan to join them ahead of their position The guards didn't care since they also expected things to go like that.

Even though there were rules for checking everyone's identity, if the guards were aware of the user's Blue Wood identity, they would never dare to ask for it. Rules didn't matter before the powerful, and every owner of Blue Wood's identity was extremely powerful and influential.

The group of three who brought Fang Yuan had relieved faces since they were intelligent and didn't try to harm him. They had smiles written all over their faces and took the lead.

The three of them were to leave immediately, but instead of leaving, they took charge as if they were Fang Yuan's retinue.

"Young master, please," The woman respectfully said, gesturing for Fang Yuan to enter the city.

Fang Yuan's lips twitched when he saw the sudden change in reaction of the three, but since things had already happened, he needed to be calm and use his powerful identity to secure his safety.

Fang Yuan nodded and then walked, crossing the gate and entering the city. The three followed, but unlike Fang Yuan, they had to show their identity first.

The three had Yellow Wood identities since they were civilians with no part in any of the city's administrations.

***

The Crimson Wood City was one of the largest cities of the world, having a large amount of wealth. It was a city that was founded by merchants hundreds of years ago so the trade was fulfilling.

Unlike the world from which Fang Yuan came, not everyone could cultivate in the city and the world.

The roads were clean and just like the houses, they were also made of wood and not bricks. Different kinds of wooden design houses added to the beauty of the city.

Fang Yuan marveled at the scene before him. He wanted to maintain his identity of being from a powerful family, but his expressions betrayed him.

He wasn't a professional actor to mask his true emotions, so his awe for the city revealed itself. The three caught that expression but believed it was because Fang Yuan was traveling on his own for the first time.

Looking at Fang Yuan, it was clear that he hadn't reached adulthood yet.

"Young master, is it your first time coming to Crimson Wood City on your own?" One of the men asked.

Fang Yuan didn't immediately answer but sighed in his heart at the fickleness of the heart. When he was nobody, the three were completely suspicious of him. But now that it was revealed that he had a powerful identity, they treated his suspicious behavior as expected.

Fang Yuan didn't feel bad about the treatment since if he were in the place of the three of them, he would have done the same.

***

Since Fang Yuan wasn't native here, he needed information to survive. Since he had guides in the three people, he asked them to take him around the city.

The first destination was the southern part of the city which was a jungle.

When Fang Yuan saw an endless amount of Crimson Wood trees before him, his eyes widened in shock, not taking the three around him into contention.

The tree was fully red and released heat just like a flame. Its orange leaves looked just like burning flames.

Due to his identity, the three of them would create situations for his reaction, so he didn't need to care.

And as Fang Yuan had expected, the three had created an obvious reason for his actions.

"Young master, the Crimson Wood is native to the city…," The woman introduced the tree in detail to Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyes in surprise upon learning about its price.

It was a popular material known for its use in first and second-grade talismans related to fire-related abilities on the Qingtian continent. A kilogram of lowest quality Crimson Wood cost 100 spirit coins, whereas in the city, it was free of charge.

The Crimson Wood City didn't use Crimson Wood in talismans at all. It's just that the founder merchant of the city liked the tree, so he named the city after that. Its material wasn't durable enough to be used in weapons, so its jungle became a scenic spot for the people due to its peculiar appearance.

Fang Yuan's breathing turned rough when he suddenly thought about what would happen if he took the tree from here and sold it in his original world. At the same time, he was also shocked by the sudden idea appearing in his head.

'Am I talented in business?' He couldn't help but think in his heart since there were many businesses in Yellow Peach City that dealt with materials for talismans.

There was another business where he could purchase a talisman in his original world and sell it here, but that was a long-term decision since talismans didn't exist in this world at all.

The Crimson Wood tree wasn't very tall, but still, it had enough material to be sold for several spirit stones.

"Young master, if you want one, we can help you cut it," The woman suddenly said.

Fang Yuan nodded but took his time to respond. The three would create reasons for his actions in their minds, but that didn't mean he could act foolish and greedy and get away with it.

Following his response, the three of them went to the nearby tree and started to pull it out. With the efforts of the three, it didn't take long for the tree to come out.

Fang Yuan suddenly stepped forward and touched the tree. The next moment, the tree disappeared before the eyes of the four of them.

"Space storage!"

The three simultaneously exclaimed in shock since nothing else could justify what happened before them. Items related to space storage were extremely rare in the world, with only a few of them in existence.
