Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1314: Cangyun City

You Ran and Tan Yuxin walked out of the workshop together. "Do you think we should change the rules within our clan, wife?"

"Honestly, that young man’s words are correct." Tan Yuxin turned to her husband before continuing. "However, this tradition has existed for generations, so I think changing it will be very difficult. Even so, there’s no harm in trying, and I think it would be better for our clan, but we must do it slowly and let our members adapt to the changes."

"Let’s try to start changing that tradition." You Ran then asked her. "Do you want to accompany me to the Moonlit Passion Temple?"

"Eh?" Tang Yuxin was momentarily surprised. "Do you want to prove for yourself the truth of the images we saw before?"

You Ran nodded slightly in response. "The young man has extraordinary abilities, and we have quite extensive connections, especially in blacksmithing. If the situation in the sect is like that now, I think that establishing a positive relationship with them would greatly benefit both parties."

"In that case, we don’t need to wait for that young man to return to his sect, and we will go there today to see the situation there in person." After she contacted and instructed several members of her clan, Tan Yuxin and You Ran immediately left the You Clan for the Moonlit Passion Temple.

Zhang Fei arrived at Cangyun City, but he was only accompanied by Luo Yunxiao and Fei Yinglin. For personal reasons, You Shiyan waited in the lower city instead of joining them.

Before they entered Cangyun City, Zhang Fei had already sent Mu Lingshu, Wu Lianzhi, Xu Ling’er, and Ning Zhuan’er back to his sect, especially after the You Clan members had previously advised him not to bring them to that city.

Additionally, Zhang Fei used his body modification ability to change Fei Yinglin’s appearance so her presence wouldn’t bring any trouble to them.

Cangyun City was built upon a sea of ​​clouds suspended between two colossal pillars that pierce the skies, and its civilization was the most advanced of any city or planet that Zhang Fei had ever seen. It. Its citizens were a mixture of noble cultivators, array masters, and artifact crafters. It was governed by the Cangyun Council, which governs all regulations within the city.

Unlike the Tianzhu City, which was filled with mental booms and smoke, or the Lianxu City, which was filled with people seeking treatment, the Cangyun City was more similar to modern cities on Earth, making Zhang Fei feel like he was at home.

However, Cangyun City was more advanced than cities on Earth. Even the Xianjin Realm, the most advanced planet in the Three Mortal Realms, couldn’t compare to it. It was the epicenter of formation arrays, artifact crafting, and modern technology.

To reach Cangyun City, they couldn’t fly directly because it was shrouded by a special barrier, like the floating plateau where the Moonlit Pavilion Temple was located or the floating island belonging to the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary. They had to travel to the small city below, where several teleportation portals connected them to it. The most striking landmark in the city was the twin bridge that connects two pillars.

Since Fei Yinglin was a native of Cangyun City, she led Zhang Fei and Luo Yunxiao to look around the city while explaining to them about the Cangyun Council and the rules within the city.

"This city is truly advanced, thriving, and lively! Gong Ren and Cheng Gaoji would surely be thrilled if I brought them here. Zhang Fei looked at Fei Yinglin and questioned her. "Where does your clan live, Yinglin?"

"Over there, Elder Zhang." Fei Yinglin pointed to a futuristic five-story building floating a few meters in front of them with a statue of a man on top. "The statue above my clan residence is the founder of our clan, Fei Xuanyang. He was the best artifact crafter in the past, but he was not talented in cultivation, and he died out of lifespan. After his era, our clan continued to produce reliable artifact crafters and array masters, and our clan became the best in those two fields in this domain."

"Which clan is the second best in both fields?"

Fei Yinglin pointed to a building that was no less large and magnificent than the Fei Clan. "People consider the Liao Clan to be second best, but in fact, their members’ abilities are on par with our Fei Clan’s, and the two clans constantly compete in both fields to prove who is the best among them. The difference between the two clans is their total strength, and the Liao Clan is slightly weaker than our Fei Clan."

"Who is the best array master in both clans?" Zhang Fei asked again.

"Fei Minghan is the best in our Fei Clan, and Liao Hanxue is the best in the Liao Clan."

Luo Yunxiao smiled when she saw Zhang Fei’s expression and smile, and she knew for sure that he was thinking of Liao Hanxue, who was clearly a woman. "Are you thinking about going to the Liao Clan and meeting Liao Hanxue, husband?"

"Hahaha." Zhang Fei laughed at that. "Among all my wives, only Duanmu Luolan truly masters formation arrays, so I want to recruit a few others to assist her in the Array Hall. However, you know my character yourself, and I will never allow any man to be around her."

"Pfft! Haha." Luo Yunxiao laughed heartily at that. "You are such a possessive husband, but we all like you like that."

Fei Yinglin smiled in amusement as she listened to them. Since Zhang Fei had lived in the Moonlit Passion Sect for quite some time, she was naturally familiar with his character. "Are you and the others really okay with Elder Zhang acting like that, Sister Yunxiao? Won’t his attitude only limit your relationships with others?"

"Hehe." Luo Yunxiao chuckled. "Actually, my husband never forbade us from getting to know other men, and he just doesn’t like them staying around us too long. Moreover, you already know that we know many other men because they live in our sect now."

"Well, that’s true." Fei Yinglin nodded in agreement before asking Zhang Fei. "Do you want to go to one of the clans now, Elder Zhang?"

"Hmm?" Zhang Fei pondered for a while before deciding. "We spent too much time in the You Clan, and it’s getting late now. Therefore, I think we’ll stay in this city tonight, and I’ll go to the Liao Clan first tomorrow."

"Where’s the best hotel, Yinglin?"

"Over there, Sister Yunxiao." Fei Yinglin pointed her index finger at a hundred-story building. "That hotel belongs to the Liao Clan, and Liao Hanxue often appears there, especially on the top floor. If you two stay there, you can see the entire domain, but the price per room is costly."

"How expensive?"

"Ten thousand golden jewels per night."

"Fuck!" Luo Yunxiao and Fei Yinglin laughed when they heard Zhang Fei cursing. "There’s nothing cheap in this domain!"

Luo Yunxiao spoke straight away. "Husband, this domain is the most advanced in this realm, so it’s natural that everything is expensive, right?"

"Yeah, you’re right." Zhang Fei sighed heavily. "You should come with us, Yinglin."

"Eh?" Fei Yinglin was surprised. "But Elder Zhang, you two—"

"Just join us, Yinglin." Luo Yunxio grabbed Fei Yinglin’s hand and pulled her toward the hotel.

Zhang Fei followed behind them, browsing the shops along the street, but the prices of the goods displayed inside made him sigh heavily, especially since they were too high. Moreover, he only had one shop in the Paradise Realm, so his number of golden jewels wasn’t that large yet. ’Sigh! I have to open more shops soon, or I’ll continue to have difficulty purchasing essential items in this realm.’

"This isn’t a bedroom, but a football field!" Zhang Fei shouted as soon as they arrived inside their room. "Moreover, this room looks small from the outside, but it’s this big inside."

"What’s football, Elder Zhang?"

"Haha." Zhang Fei laughed wryly. "It’s a sport in my home realm, but only ordinary humans play it."

"Oh." Fei Yinglin then asked Zhang Fei. "Did you see that room at the north end, Elder Zhang? That room is Liao Hanxue’s private room, and she usually spends her time alone there when she’s brainstorming ideas for her new formations. As for this bedroom, it is actually a private space, and the Liao Clan created it themselves."

Zhang Fei tried to check the bedroom at the north end using the map, but it couldn’t show anything. "Did the Liao Clan really create an artifact that can create a private space?"

"Yes." Fei Yinglin nodded in response. "Actually, my Fei Clan also has such an artifact, but the Liao Clan’s is much better and more spacious."

"Hmm?" Zhang Fei rubbed his chin in thought. "The price of that artifact must be very expensive, right?"

"The price of an artifact depends on its size, Elder Zhang." Zhang Fei and Luo Yunxiao looked at Fei Yinglin with curious looks. "The smallest one costs ten million golden jewels, and the one as big as this bedroom costs one hundred million golden jewels."

Zhang Fei was utterly speechless, but he didn’t need such artifacts because he had his training space. Moreover, he had the portable mansion that he could move whenever and wherever he wanted, so such artifacts were useless to him.

"I’ll sleep in that room, Elder Zhang and Sister Yunxiao." Fei Yinglin then walked away, leaving them.
