Bab 105: Divine Chicken City!
A few weeks later
Yun Che and Cross appeared in the Divine Phoenix city. Cross looked around and whistled at all the things, so many useless things! He wondered what would happen if he destroyed everything, then he chuckled to himself and muttered "What a destructive thought~"
Yun Che looked at him and said "Did you just think of laying waste to the empire?" Cross gave him a thumbs up and said "Aiyo! This brother is getting to know me better and better!" Yun Che laughed and shook his head.
They both looked up at the giant Profound Ark, Cross said "Doesn't it look a little like Noah's Ark?" Yun Che and Jasmine said "Noah's Ark?" Cross cleared his throat and said "In my world, there are religions. In a specific religion, God decided that the world was filthy with greed and sin so he created a tidal wave to drown the entire world. In the story, God tasked one man to build a wooden Ark and protect 2 of every animal, one male and one female. He, along with his family, would be the only surviving humans after the 'Great Flood' and the animals would be safe."
Yun Che said "What's the use, wouldn't they just become greedy again?" Jasmine agreed, not finding any logic. Cross shrugged and said "This was one of many stories in the religion's book, the Bible. But there are pictures too and all the pictures look like that Ark."
Cross scratched his stubble and chuckled "Maybe, there'll be a flood?" Yun Che rolled his eyes and Jasmine said "Hmph! To create a flood on this planet, perhaps only a True God can do it!" Cross snickered and kept silent.
Yun Che walked towards the Black Moon Merchant Guild, Cross floated along. He had changed his clothes, it was pretty hot in the Divine Phoenix Empire, so he only wore shorts and his bunny slippers.
His perfectly carved muscular body was exposed to the air and around his neck a ring of black prayer beads, with 2 of the beads being white and red, was shown. His neck length wavy hair fluttered in the hot wind and his black tattoos were laid out for all to see.
He was incomparably handsome, it was almost impossible to not look at him. The massive beads only seemed to add a layer of mysteriousness to him, which was fatal to women. He was simply a walking fantasy!
Yun Che wore a black t-shirt with black shorts and slides. He looked very fresh, and very handsome! Though standing next to the Male God wasn't doing him any favors.
Heads turned where ever they went, some women even shouted "He's Xavier! From 'The memory of a night under the full moon!" before fainting with heavy blushes, Cross rubbed his nose and grinned. He had asked Luna to describe him seriously, he needed a handsome character and who was more handsome than him? Nobody that's who! He was the MC!
More people started looking and Cross whispered "Watch this." Yun Che smirked slightly and Cross made a blank expression as he held his Prayer Beads and chanted "Amitabha. Lust is man's original Sin." the women's expressions fell and they were disappointed, while the men were ecstatic and chanted "Amitabha! Hahaha"
Cross burst out laughing as they turned a corner, arriving at the Guild Headquarters. Yun Che snickered and said "I think your wife would kill you if you turned monk." Cross shivered and said "No meat, wine, or sex? Bleh! I'd rather die!" Yun Che burst out laughing and looked at the Headquarters before whistling.
Cross scratched his head and said "Isn't this a bit too grand?" Yun Che had to agree, aren't you just a shop? This is better than Cang Yue's Palace...
Suddenly they heard an arrogant voice.
A boy dressed on red said "Move, slaves! Watch how I turn this Steele purple and reach the 7th floor!" Cross choked and shouted "Oi! Who are you calling a slave?!" the boy stopped and turned to Cross as he said "You-" before choking.
This guy! Was he made by the heavens themselves!?
The rest of the people were stunned as well. Cross waved and grabbed a man as he said "You! How does this Steele work?" the man stuttered "The stronger you are the different the color is, there's 7 colors representing 7 floors, purple is the highest!" Cross threw him back and said "You, the guy that looks like a used tampon, display your strength!"
The boy almost spit out blood as the people around started to laugh, he grinded his teeth and said "You first." Cross sneered and spit at the Steele, everyone's eyes widened and the used tampon guy started laughing as he said "You-" his laughter was choked back and his face turned completely white.
Cross' spit hit the Steele and blew it to smithereens. There was no Steele left, Cross sneered as he said "Strong enough for you?" the used tampon buy trembled and backed up slowly, Cross said "I don't hate arrogant people, but I hate people who are more arrogant than me! Now scram before you have to tell your story to the demons in hell!"
The used tampon guy ran away as fast as he could, cursing his parents for not giving him 3 legs.
Cross burst into laughter before wiping his eyes and sighing "That was fun." Yun Che rolled his eyes and an old man appeared in front of Cross saying fawningly "Senior, I would like to personally escort you. Please come with me."
Cross rolled his eyes and followed the old man with Yun Che, Cross muttered "How fucking old do I look... This guy has a white beard and he's calling me senior..." Yun Che laughed and the Old man almost tripped.
They entered the building and immediately went to the top floor, they were greeted by 3 beautiful girls. Yun Che and Cross was surprised, Cross said "3 little girls at the Sky realm as hostesses?" he elbowed Yun Che and said "Seems like this place gets more grand by the minute!"
Yun Che turned his head and laughed, Cross was too rude. He didn't give anybody face, not a single person. The 3 girls almost fell down and the old man slipped away, a voice was heard, though it was half chuckling as it said "Bring them here."
The 3 girls brought Cross and Yun Che to another old man, Cross sat down in a chair and looked around, crossing his legs as he said "You don't sell my books here.. Though I guess they would be on the lowest floor." the old man laughed and said "Yes, the 'God of Literature's' books are on the lower floors.. Though should I call you that? Or perhaps Cross? Maybe you prefer the Reaper?"
Cross clicked his tongue and said "Not liking the new look? Out me right away why don't you?" the old man smiled and said "Please sit sir..." Yun Che said "Ling Yun." Cross laughed and the old man chuckled as well saying "Very well, Mr. Yun Che."
Yun Che sat down and said "Black Moon's information network sure is something." the old man shook his head and said "I merely felt your Phoenix flames, also most of the time you are seen with the Reaper, who most notably wears pink fluffy bunny slippers."
Cross grinned and wiggled his foot, making the bunny ears flail a bit. Yun Che smiled and the old man smiled as he added "My name is Zi Ji, very nice to meet you both." Cross waved in greeting and Yun Che nodded.
Zi Ji sipped on his tea as he said with a little smirk "So what can I do for you two? Perhaps something the Reaper himself cannot accomplish?" Cross felt his mouths twitch and Yun Che smiled as he said "I require 2 items and a piece of news."
Cross tuned out and looked at the 3 girls on standby, he waved one over and said "Do you have any good wines?" the girl nodded and said "We do, would Mr. Reaper like some?" Cross chuckled and said "Would I ask if I didn't? Bring me a gourd or bottle or jar or whatever of you best wine."
The girl nodded and retreated, Cross closed his eyes as Yun Che talked to Zi Ji about the things he needed. The girl came back with a big gourd and said "100,000 Purple coins." Cross rolled his eyes and a card appeared in thin air as he took the gourd and drank straight from the tip.
He smacked his lips and fell silent, it wasn't bad but it wasn't as good as Xiao Lie's. He took back his card and sighed as he continued to drink, the girl could tell that Cross wasn't satisfied and felt her eye brow twitch. That's the best we have, okay!?
A while later
Cross and Yun Che had both left the Black Moon store and walked to the place Zi Ji had given him for some flower. Cross was drinking from the gourd as he floated around Yun Che, trying to entertain himself.
Cross was sitting cross-legged upside down and drank from the gourd as he said "Little Bro, is this flower really important? Can't we just go steal from the Palace? So much easier." Yun Che chuckled and said "For you! I'll get skinned alive going in there."
Cross snickered and said "Isn't it more fun to be in danger? Very stimulating." Yun Che laughed and said "Unfortunately, unlike you, I'm not tired of living just yet." Cross pouted and said "Come oooonnn~" Yun Che laughed and said "You're drunk!"
Cross burped and grinned as he said "I bought 20 gourds, what did you expect? I'm not even filtering it, plus I'm on like number 15 or something... These gourds hold a lot." he closed one eye and looked into the gourd with the other as he added "Maybe there's a space function in these gourds?"
He gasped and said "Then I can fill them with as much of Grandpa Lie's wine as I want!" he chugged the rest of the wine and hiccupped before holding the Gourd in front of him and getting to work. Yun Che felt his mouth twitch as they arrived at the Building where an auction was being held.
Cross slapped the gourd and it buzzed before strange runes appeared on it. Cross chuckled excitedly and disappeared before reappearing a few minutes later, drinking from the gourd and spinning in the air around Yun Che.
Yun Che rolled his eyes and they walked into the building, he was escorted to a seat and Cross floated above him, with a little blush running across his face. A woman walked onto the stage and countless men locked their eyes on her.
Cross clapped and enjoyed the show, the little vixen was giving as she said "Little Qi Qi will be running the auction, please buy things from me~" Yun Che choked and Cross burst out laughing, the auction continued and Qi Qi introduced an item "In this jade case, are two Purple Crystal Jade Marrows which contain the purest essence of an enormous purple crystal mine. If you use one to drive a profound ark, one Purple Crystal Jade Marrow could fuel a fifty thousand kilogram profound ark for two hundred hours. If you meld it onto a weapon with spiritual conscious, it could raise the weapon's intelligence by a lot, you know."
Cross smacked Yun Che and said "Little bro, get this! Little Yueyue will fight you for 100 rounds tonight if you get this for her sword!" Yun Che almost spit out blood, while some of the friendlier people all chuckled. Cross giggled and drank from his gourd once again as the bid started.
"Oh! It's actually the Purple Crystal Jade Marrow!" That young man with the surname Gongsun revealed an excited expression: "This lord has been looking for this item for quite a while, I'd never thought that little Qi Qi has it in hand, and it's even two of them… As expected of my little Qi Qi! Quick, speak. What is the lowest price for these two Purple Crystal Jade Marrows?"
Qi Qi smiled like a little seductive flower and said sweetly "600 Purple coins... Only for you Young Master Gongsun~" Cross spit out his wine and laughed at this shameless woman, was there no line she won't cross!?
Simp Gongsun said "700 purple coins!" Yun Che raised his hand and said "800 Purple coins." the surrounding guys all gave him a thumbs up with snickers, Yun Che was embarrassed and cursed Cross to fall down.
The ultimate Simp Gongsun stood up and shouted "You dar-" Cross cut him off shouting "Sit down! Were you raised in a barn? This is an Auction, just because your little Qi Qi is running the show today doesn't mean you can act like you own the place!" before drinking from his gourd and grumbling "Fucking Simps..."
The Omega-Level Simp sat back down with an ugly face, Cross added "Oh yeah, if you come after me later I will send you and your clan to hell. I don't care who you are or where you're from, roll back to your ant hill and eat the loss like a man." the audience sucked in a cold breath of air, Cross was too arrogant! He threatened the Simp's whole clan!
The King of Simps sat in his chair and clenched his fist in rage, teh auction continued and Yun Che got the two Marrows for 1000 purple crystals, someone tested the waters to see if Cross would be angry but he didn't even react. This gave him a good impression with the others, at least he wasn't pressuring them to back out because of his background!
A bold young man asked "Um, Senior, may I ask your name?" Cross flipped in the air, looking at the kid upside down as he said "I'm only 27 do you believe it?" the audience was stunned and Cross sighed in grief as he said "Why does everybody call me Senior all the time..."
Everyone coughed, they didn't even know how strong he was! What were they supposed to call him?! You?! Cross looked at the kid and said "My name is Cross, call me that. Senior makes me sound like an old guy! I'm still in the prime of my youth!" before floating back, drinking from his gourd.
By the time he floated back to Yun Che, Yun Che had already bought the flower and was going to grab it when someone walked in and people started talking "That's Zhi Yan from the Roasting Sun Sect!" Cross tried to catch that person but the turned to dust and disappeared forever...
Cross sighed at the ashes, wasn't it nice to live? Why be the exposition guy?
