Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl

Chapter 629: Chapter 629: Tianya Pavilion
 

After giving it some thought, Jiang Xiaobai realized that the shadow he saw earlier was the person who had bumped into him.

That same person had slipped a storage ring into his belt.

The intention was clear in Jiang Xiaobai’s mind.

However, he did not take it to heart.

He scoffed. How could something that landed in his hands ever be so easily taken away?

It’s absolutely impossible!

As he followed Sun Gagniang into the Tianya Pavilion, he saw a bustling crowd of people moving around inside.

Everyone held jade slips in their hands, likely the collected intelligence materials.

After a quick look around, Jiang Xiaobai was led by Sun Gagniang to the door of a small room.

“Sir, once you enter, you will find the answers to any questions you have.”

“I guarantee, even the Great Goose Dynasty doesn’t know as much as you will.”

Sun Gagniang boasted, thumping her chest for emphasis.

Nodding, Jiang Xiaobai stepped inside while Sun Gagniang remained outside.

This endeared him to her slightly

Understanding limits, that’s a good quality.

“Buying or selling information?”

An elderly man feigned sleep inside the room, lying on his chair and not paying Jiang Xiaobai any attention.

Pondering for a moment, Jiang Xiaobai went straight to the point.

“Where are the most resources?”

At this question, the old man shot to his feet, looking at Jiang Xiaobai with amazement.

“Well, that depends on where you want to go. The Dynasties have abundant resources, so do the various secret realms, and as for some powers, their resources are even greater.”

“Oh? Elaborate, what kind of powers?” Jiang Xiaobai was intrigued.

But the old man did not respond; he just sat there, smiling at him.

Jiang Xiaobai then tossed a storage ring over to him. Inside, there were ten pieces of medium quality spirit stones.

“That’s fair pay. The most resourceful power is indeed the trading houses.”

Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes and felt like hitting someone.

Wasn’t that quite obvious?

“However… to honor the newcomer, and seeing how generous you are, there are two richest ones.”

“The East Sea Trading House, and the Watchwind Trading House.”

“The former is near the Great Goose Dynasty, and the latter is far away, near the polar regions.”

Only then did Jiang Xiaobai nod his head. He had indirectly learnt about these two trading houses – they were not only rich but also powerful.

Because the truth in this world is,

The strong may not necessarily be wealthy, but the rich, damn it, must be strong!

Then, Jiang Xiaobai focused on the secret trial realms, spending a bit of money to collect a lot of information.

Furthermore, he acquired an account of the major powers from the old man.

This record contained data of the majority of the strong powers, which enabled Jiang Xiaobai to have a better understanding of the Xuanling State in the Star Refining Hell.

Well, only the Xuanling State.

Coming out of the Tianya Pavilion, a pleasant expression spread across Jiang Xiaobai’s face.

Xu Lingling was telling the truth; the resources in the Star Refining Hellworld were indeed plenty!

Look no further than the two secret realms close to where he was.

One was the secret realm within the boundaries of the Great Goose Dynasty, full of unusual and precious treasures, without any opening hours, allowing one to enter whenever they wished!

It was a bit dangerous, but hey, danger existed everywhere.

Most importantly, there were no entry tickets here.

Only ten percent of the resources brought out had to be turned over to the Great Goose Dynasty.

The other secret realm required mysterious crystals to enter it.

The amount of resources inside was vast!

Incredibly vast!

Hence, so many people were frantically hunting for those mysterious crystals, just like the Sky Clearing Tower, willing to do whatever it took to acquire them.

Unfortunately, they came across Jiang Xiaobai and Huo Shuyu.

Otherwise, they really would’ve rejoiced if things had gone their way.

Now that he knew the specifics, Jiang Xiaobai had a target – he was here to make money with reputation as a secondary objective.

He could not enter the crystal-required secret realm at the moment, it would take some time.

He could visit the secret realm inside the Great Goose Dynasty to see if he could collect some things there.

Just as he prepared to leave, his eyebrows furrowed, and he looked back towards that corner again.

This time, the person who had been hiding and watching him hadn’t left. He was staring at Jiang Xiaobai with a pair of extremely sharp and bright eyes, just like two swords.

That person, was the same individual from earlier.

After making eye contact for two seconds, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t think much of it. It was nothing more than a person who had crossed the calamity at the middle stage.

Then, he left with Sun Gagniang.

“Honorable sir, see, I knew I could be of help to you!”

“Do you believe me now?”

Sun Gagniang kept trying to take credit beside Jiang Xiaobai, who was not ungrateful and gave her ten medium grade spirit stones on the spot.

According to his knowledge, ten medium-grade spirit stones were quite a large sum.

True enough, Sun Gagniang almost jumped for joy when she received the money.

Nevertheless, she was truly a weirdo, for she managed to keep her excitement in check and returned the spirit stones instead.

Jiang Xiaobai was indeed surprised at her actions!

“Hey, you said I’m your nobleman, and when I give you money, you refuse. What’s your game?” Jiang Xiaobai quizzed, raising his eyebrows.

Sun Gagniang let out a cheeky laugh: “Dear sir, my mother and the fortune teller we consulted confirmed this. The fortune teller said, being with the nobleman is the greatest luck and opportunity.”

“If I take the nobleman’s money, I’m afraid that would spoil the mood!”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback.

This person had quite the vision!

“Interesting, it seems the fortune teller is quite fond of you.”

“Of course! Otherwise, my mother wouldn’t have given me this name. But now, I still don’t know the nobleman’s name!”

“My name is Jiang Bai.”

After some consideration, Jiang Xiaobai eventually decided to keep Sun Gagniang by his side.

Prior to this, he might not have believed much in divination and fate. However, after experiencing Gu Ning and Baihe, as well as the old guy from the gloomy abyss, he found the concept of fate and causality profoundly complex and inexplicable.

There’s a divine plan in the universe. Who knows, Sun Gagniang may indeed prove to be useful.

And he was right, Sun Gagniang proved to be of great use!

But that’s to be discussed later.

The two of them walked along, and through Sun Gagniang, Jiang Xiaobai learned about many news.

But soon, something Jiang Xiaobai predicted happened.

The guy who had bumped into him earlier appeared on the main road, blocking their path.

Taking notice, Sun Gagniang immediately stepped in front of Jiang Xiaobai, displaying her powerful aura belonging to the Peak of the Late Integration Stage.

“Who are you, and what do you want?”

“I’ve noticed you sneaking around behind us for a while, speak, what do you want?”

Sun Gagniang’s response genuinely surprised Jiang Xiaobai.

The youth who had blocked their path, meanwhile, said nothing. He simply extended his hand while looking at Jiang Xiaobai.

Clearly, he was there to reclaim something.

But would Jiang Xiaobai give it back?

Of course not!

He did nothing, just looking back indifferently.

Displaying a demeanor of ‘what can you do if I don’t hand it over to you.’
