Chapter 52 - 52: 52 Spring Lake City

Since his arrival on the Tianxuan Continent, Jiang Xiaobai only knew of Dragon Valley and Tianyuan City, and was in the dark about many other things.

This is also why he decided to nurture the Golden Pavilion, as having such a force work for him would be extremely convenient.

Jiang Xiaobai walked into the Golden Pavilion and directly asked Qian Dabao for a map of the surrounding million miles. He had to admit, Qian Dabao’s work was satisfactory. The map was extremely detailed, even indicating the distribution of various powers.

Only after a cursory glance at the map did Jiang Xiaobai realize how vast the Tianxuan Continent truly was. According to Qian Dabao, the million-mile range depicted on the map was merely a corner of the Tianxuan Continent, known as the Eastern Region.

The actual expanse of the Eastern Region was even greater.

Planning to study these details on the road, Jiang Xiaobai left a bottle of purifying elixir behind and prepared to leave. But he was stopped by Qian Dabao.

“Sir, when will you return next?” Qian Dabao asked cautiously, terrified of angering Jiang Xiaobai with his question.

Jiang Xiaobai frowned, “What is it?”

“Well, our young master wishes to meet with you. There are some matters he would like to discuss with you. Would it be possible for you to spare some time?”

“Wait for it. I’m quite busy lately, not sure when I’ll come back next.”

With that, Jiang Xiaobai left the Golden Pavilion directly.

He himself was entangled in big troubles currently and didn’t have any time to discuss matters with a young master. From Jiang Xiaobai’s perspective, since he was able to provide purifying elixir, they should at least introduce him to the head of their family, right?

Thus, he didn’t pay much attention to this, leaving Tianyuan City directly and studying the map as he rushed towards his destination a hundred thousand miles away.

Considering his flight speed, it would take two days to get there, assuming he flew non-stop through the sky.

Luckily, he could study the map during this time, making the journey less boring.

The map depicted numerous organizations within this million-mile radius. As expected of a merchant group, the Golden Pavilion did a very thorough job, not only marking the location of these organizations, but also ranking them according to their strength.

The rankings were divided into minor organizations, third-rate organizations, top-notch organizations, and transcendental organizations!

Dragon Valley and Five Lotus Mountain were naturally classified as transcendental organizations. But within this region, there were another five or six transcendental organizations, of which Jiang Xiaobai had never heard before.

It seemed that this world was even greater than he had imagined.

Based on his simple speculation, Jiang Xiaobai felt that his current strength as a late stage Yuan Infant, even in the top-notch organizations, should still hold a high position. However, he guessed it wouldn’t mean much among the transcendental organizations.

Having stayed in Dragon Valley for a long time, Jiang Xiaobai knew just how horrifying the foundations of these transcendental organizations were. It was not an exaggeration to say there were innumerable Yuan Infants.

And so, taking his time, Jiang Xiaobai finally arrived at a city near his destination, after roughly two days of travel.

Spring Lake City.

Compared to Tianyuan City, Spring Lake City seemed like a child next to an adult. Its area and population were not large, and according to the Golden

Pavilion’s classification, Spring Lake City was merely a insignificant force.

Quickly, he entered the city and found a restaurant to sit down. He had already dropped his disguise, and currently looked no different from a weary, traveling scholar.

“Sir, your meal is ready,” the servant said, bringing the last dish and a pot of fine wine. “Please enjoy your meal, and don’t hesitate to call if you need anything. ”

While savouring the meal in the restaurant, Jiang Xiaobai listened to the conversations around him. In his opinion, the best place to gather information when arriving at a new place was a restaurant or a teahouse.

Having traveled for two days, Jiang Xiaobai enjoyed his meal and listened to the various voices around him, picking out useful information.

“Did you hear? There’s been another ghost incident near South Mountain.”

“How could I not hear? Apparently, Miss Li from the Li Family had an accident while hunting.”

“Tsk tsk tsk. It’s troublesome. South Mountain is haunted, but the city lord doesn’t even invite an immortal to come and handle it. How are we common folks supposed to live under these conditions?”

“I heard that yesterday, the city lord’s mansion welcomed a distinguished person, an incredibly powerful immortal!”

In hearing these various discussions, Jiang Xiaobai paid particular attention to the above dialogues, and his eyes narrowed.

Southern Mountain was exactly where he was headed this time. In the jade slip, it was said that the situation near Southern Mountain was rather complex, as there were many demonic creatures who had achieved spirituality.

What was strange was that no matter how many cultivators slayed these demonic creatures, new ones would appear in a few years.

The exact reason was unknown, because Spring Lake City was quite remote and barren, with few cultivators willing to come. Therefore, there were very few clues.

However, Jiang Xiaobai felt that there was definitely something suspicious. Frequent appearances of spiritually developed demonic creatures clearly indicated the abundance of spiritual energy in the area, a necessary condition for this to happen.

While enjoying his food, Jiang Xiaobai stored this information in his mind the Li family in Spring Lake City, and the city lord’s mansion that had invited an immortal.

Feeling full and not having heard any more relevant information in the tavern where everything was geared towards the worldly, making South Mountain seem like a hell on earth, Jiang Xiaobai left a silver ingot on the table and left the restaurant. He had just arrived and decided to go to the Li Family first to find out more about the current situation.

He would have to stay in the city for two days now. Until the task was completed, Jiang Xiaobai could only stay within the city, otherwise he would have already gone to South Mountain.

After much investigation, Jiang Xiaobai arrived at a grand mansion. Just by looking, one could tell that the Li family held a significant position in Spring Lake City!

The mansion, which was usually open with full of servants at the gate, was now closed.

Jiang Xiaobai made a mental probe and found that everyone inside the

mansion was rushing around. They were all entering and exiting a small

courtyard with worried expressions on their faces.

At that moment, a group of people walked over from a distance. Jiang Xiaobai could sense the aura of a cultivator among them..
