Chapter 1841: Skyrise City
By the time Xi Yue regained her senses, she found herself in the void. As her consciousness extended outward, she realized that dawn had already broken. Below her, the Anling Family was busy making preparations, determined to reach the Qingyang Realm by the end of the day.
Xi Yue opened her eyes and offered a slight smile. “It seems the doctor assessment will have to wait until we reach the Qingyang Realm,” she mused.
…
The sun dipped below the horizon. After traveling for the entire day, the Anling Family finally arrived at Skyrise City in Qingyang Realm.
Skyrise City, the closest major city to Heavenly Medicine Valley, was often considered a satellite city of the valley, drawing many to its bustling streets.
As soon as Xi Yue entered Skyrise City, she immediately sensed the pervasive aura of a city dedicated to medicine.
Looking around, the streets were lined with clinics and pharmacies. Even the inns where travelers stayed bore the names of pharmacies. Guests sought their rest upstairs, while medicines were sold downstairs.
Unlike Miracle Healer City in Miluo, where residents often held themselves in high regard and many did not study medicine, Skyrise City was predominantly inhabited by wealthy martial artists and featured a diverse array of shops.
In Skyrise City, Xi Yue noticed many low-ranking martial artists setting up stalls to sell spiritual plants and medicinal herbs. She even spotted a few apprentices in the early stages of their training, bustling about as errand runners in various pharmacies and clinics.
From this observation alone, it was clear that Anling Yao’s claim was true. Heavenly Medicine Valley was committed to providing opportunities to all aspiring physicians, and it wasn’t an empty promise. After all, even Skyrise City, a city affiliated with the valley, embraced so many who were eager to become healers.
Anling Yao was familiar with Skyrise City, so he quickly led Anling Yang and the others to the front of a large shop.
The shop was lavishly decorated, clearly owned by someone of considerable wealth and status.
After listening to Anling Yao’s description, Xi Yue learned that this establishment specialized in the buying, selling, and leasing of properties in Skyrise City’s Peace Street, functioning much like a modern real estate agency.
However, this place was far more convenient than modern real estate agencies. All property listings were recorded on jade slips. Prospective buyers simply immersed their consciousness into these slips to directly choose their desired shops and houses, sparing them the need to physically visit multiple locations.
By the time Xi Yue and her companions entered, dusk had fallen, and the shop seemed quiet and deserted.
There was only one staff member sorting out the inscribed jade slips, while the shopkeeper was dozing off.
Sensing Anling Yang and the others entering, the shopkeeper barely lifted an eyelid. Upon seeing their level of cultivation, he didn’t even bother to give them a second glance.
Although Skyrise City was a melting pot of various characters, from the lowest to the highest ranks of cultivation, those who could afford to buy shops and houses were certainly at least at the level of a “cultivator.”
Anling Yang and his group, with their highest level of cultivation only at the Soult Splitting stage, were no match for the shopkeeper himself. Naturally, he paid them little heed.
The staff member greeted Anling Yang and his companions with cool indifference, leading them to the area where the property jade slips were displayed.
Upon hearing from Anling Yao that they were looking to rent rather than purchase, the staff member’s demeanor turned icy. With impatience, he scoffed, “Do you know how many people come and go in Skyrise City? Even those who want to buy can’t always find a place. And you expect to find a large enough space to rent for a clinic? You must be dreaming!”
Anling Yang and Anling Yao’s faces flushed with embarrassment, caught between shame and awkwardness.
However, Qingyun Realm was no better than Dark Cloud Realm. Things here were expensive. With the Anling family’s limited assets and many mouths to feed, how could they afford to buy a house?
