93: Chapter 93 Jin Yuchan: What exactly do you want to do?

Luo Yunkai reappeared at the Cloud Carriage Service.

He and Jin Yuchan ultimately failed to reach an agreement; Jin Yuchan was very confident that Kong Yishui would not dare to harm Wealthy, so she simply wouldn't let him take the person away, nor did she intend to go to Wealthy's so-called seclusion chamber to check on him herself.

With a disagreement, that woman sent him straight back to the Cloud Carriage Service, the meaning being straightforward: get lost!

Luo Yunkai stood in place, silent and motionless.

He was waiting for someone.

Ten breaths later, ripples suddenly appeared in the space behind Luo Yunkai, and an indescribable, strange odor wafted into his nostrils.

Luo Yunkai immediately held his breath and turned his head, nearly bumping heads with a bearded, unkempt man.

Uncle Dou Kuang, seeing Luo Yunkai retreat, lacked any sense of personal space and stuck his head out again to get closer. His eyes, which appeared deeply sunken amidst the messy beard and hair, stared straight at Luo Yunkai.

Recalling the strange odor he had just smelled, Luo Yunkai retreated again without a word.

As one retreated and the other pursued, Uncle Dou Kuang actually stretched his head out by a meter; the sight was terrifying.

Luo Yunkai gave up struggling and stood still, cupping his hands in greeting, "Are you Inspector Dou, Senior?"

Uncle Dou Kuang grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow-black teeth that looked like those of an old smoker who had been smoking for decades; Luo Yunkai could easily imagine the horrific stench in his mouth.

"You brat, what on earth did you do to make that woman Jin Yuchan let you go so easily?"

Uncle Dou Kuang retracted his elongated neck and gave a strange laugh, "Could it be that being the son-in-law of Dan City wasn't enough, and you've also become the boy toy of that woman Jin Yuchan?"

Luo Yunkai's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he ignored the question from this unreliable Inspector Dou, asking his own instead.

"Inspector Dou, if City Lord Jin wants me to leave Duobao City, can you intervene and help me stay?"

Uncle Dou Kuang widened his eyes, "You want to go against that woman Jin Yuchan? Aren't you afraid she'll kill you? She is a Nascent Soul, a very Wealthy Nascent Soul; even if she kills you within the city, I wouldn't be able to avenge you!"

As for stopping her, Uncle Dou Kuang did not believe that if a Nascent Soul Cultivator were to kill a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he would have any chance of stopping it.

He could only hope that when collecting the corpse, he could see how many Spirit Stones Luo Yunkai had, and perhaps extort a bit more from Jin Yuchan, which could count as avenging him.

Uncle Dou Kuang was already pondering how much net worth Luo Yunkai had and how many Spirit Stones he could extort from Jin Yuchan.

He secretly calculated that he would have to make Jin Yuchan pay in High-Grade Spirit Stones, and he could give her a ten percent discount!

Luo Yunkai looked at this bearded man laughing uncontrollably and his mouth twitched.

If it weren't for the fact that Di Yuling, as the leader of the Dan City Market Guard, couldn't easily leave Dan City for too long, he would truly have hired Di Yuzong regardless of how many Spirit Stones it cost!

"Rest assured, Inspector Dou, she won't kill me; she will only expel me. Can you handle that?"

Uncle Dou Kuang scrutinized Luo Yunkai for a long time, unable to see what was so special about this white-bearded, white-haired fellow!

What did he have going for him!

"As long as she doesn't intend to kill you, I can certainly manage to protect your right to move freely within Duobao City."

"Anyone has the right to move freely in any gathering place for Cultivators; this is one of the principles of the Market Guard!"

Otherwise, many low-level Loose Cultivators who happened upon an Opportunity would likely be driven out of the market by covetous individuals the moment they entered, losing their Opportunity.

Hearing Uncle Dou Kuang's resolute words, Luo Yunkai suddenly felt that he wasn't so unkempt after all.

"Then I will trouble you, Inspector, to take me to the City Lord's Mansion of Duobao City."

Uncle Dou Kuang: "Huh?"

He picked his ear, "What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly."

Luo Yunkai repeated with absolute certainty, "Please, Inspector Dou, take me to the City Lord's Mansion!"

"The City Lord's Mansion of Duobao City?" Uncle Dou Kuang asked, refusing to give up.

Luo Yunkai nodded calmly, "Where else would it be?"

Uncle Dou Kuang stared at Luo Yunkai with an expression of disbelief, and after a while, let out a ghostly sigh, "You brat, you really aren't afraid of death!"

"Hahaha..."

Uncle Dou Kuang suddenly burst into laughter, the sound causing the surrounding space to ripple and vibrate, "Fine! I'll take you there!"

Luo Yunkai felt as if he had been rolled into a garbage dump, with all sorts of trash colliding against him. He tried to use a Five-Element Barrier, but before he could succeed, a jolt interrupted his spell-casting.

With a heavy thud, his feet landed, and Luo Yunkai stumbled a step before steadying himself.

He looked down and saw that his moon-white, gold-threaded cloud-patterned robe was stained with black and gray, and he, who should have looked like an immortal, was now as disheveled as if he had just crawled out of a beggar's den.

Luo Yunkai immediately cast a Cleaning Spell, but miraculously, it failed to clean off all the filth.

The veins on his forehead throbbed, and he lifted his eyes gloomily to look at the culprit.

Uncle Dou Kuang was quite self-aware; seeing Luo Yunkai look over, he touched his nose, "Small problem, small problem."

He chuckled and waved his hand, casting a Cleaning Spell. A surge of powerful spiritual energy fell upon Luo Yunkai, removing the stubborn dirt from his robe.

He spread his hands, "See, isn't it clean now?"

Luo Yunkai took out ten thousand Medium-Grade Spirit Stones and then cupped his hands, the intention of saying goodbye couldn't be more obvious.

Uncle Dou Kuang's eyes lit up, and he snatched up the Spirit Stones, "Little Luo, if you need anything, just call me; I'm on call anytime!"

He left immediately, a classic example of someone who works for money, with no airs of a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Luo Yunkai breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, he had sent that person away.

He unblocked his breathing, having held it for long enough.

Instantly, his face turned green!

He had been marinated in the stench!

From within Duobao City, a gentle white beam of spiritual energy was cast.

The spiritual energy circled around Luo Yunkai and then headed further away, toward outside the city.

Luo Yunkai's abused nose could finally breathe normal, fresh air.

He immediately cupped his hands toward the City Lord's Mansion, his lips moving in a silent thank you.

"I won't drive you away, but tell Uncle Dou Kuang to get lost and never come near my City Lord's Mansion again!"

Luo Yunkai could even hear the gnashing of teeth in this voice transmission, so different from the Jin Yuchan who seemed to have everything in her grasp when she spoke to him.

He thought that Inspector Dou was truly something, to be able to push Jin Yuchan to this point.

Luo Yunkai cupped his hands toward the City Lord's Mansion, "City Lord Jin, this Junior is disturbing you."

After a few moments of silence, the doors of the City Lord's Mansion opened.

The two guards stationed outside the City Lord's Mansion looked incredulous, then simultaneously turned to the side and bowed their heads, "Please!"

Luo Yunkai stepped into the City Lord's Mansion, and the opulence that greeted him was a different experience from the City Lord's Mansion in Dan City.

At a glance, there wasn't much Luo Yunkai could recognize, except for the pillars made of Spirit Stones used for load-bearing; he could tell at a glance that they were worth a fortune.

Nonsense, load-bearing pillars that were two people wide and made entirely of Spirit Stones—it would be a ghost story if they were cheap!

What Luo Yunkai didn't know was that these seemingly expensive Spirit Stone load-bearing pillars were the cheapest things in the entire City Lord's Mansion!

Upon seeing Jin Yuchan's City Lord's Mansion, Luo Yunkai had only one thought.

He still wasn't Wealthy enough!

He still had to work hard to fleece the System!

A sense of high spirits inexplicably rose within Luo Yunkai.

The Cultivator leading the way was very confused.

Luo Yunkai was brought to the reception hall, a vast, empty hall that seemed to stretch on forever.

But from the outside, it didn't look that big!

"Stop looking; this place uses a space-expansion Formation."

Luo Yunkai looked toward Jin Yuchan, who had suddenly appeared on the main seat.

She sat there, not appearing out of place at all, perfectly matching the magnificent and resplendent City Lord's Mansion.

"What exactly do you want to do?"
