The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 326: Southern City

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Southern City was located at the southernmost region with a sea bordering two huge kingdoms. To the north was the Tianwu Kingdom and to the south was the Canaan Kingdom. However, nobody had successfully crossed this sea before. It was rumored that the three major leagues were probably located at the middle of the sea, but nobody knew for sure.

Presently, Ye Mo was hidden within the grassland after hiding his presence. After tailing the man and woman for a while, he finally figured out that they were heading towards the southern sea. The mirage would usually appear on the sea area, a naturally occurring phenomenon.

Ye Mo was planning to stop tailing them. The man had a powerful cultivation level. Any regular warrior trying to tail him would have been immediately discovered. Ye Mo hastened his steps and with a flash, he streaked amid the grassland like a foraging cheetah. Instantly, he passed by the man and vanished.

“What was that sound?” asked the princess when she heard the sound of movement among the grass.

“A beast at the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. Its speed is decent,” the man said indifferently.

“Brother, what are you pretending to be this time? What cultivation realm are you limiting yourself to?” the princess asked, no longer bothered about the sound she heard.

“A young master from Heaven’s Wall City at Energy Shaping Ninth Realm, Bai Qi. I hope this travel can help me comprehend one more will.”

“Bai Qi? My name will be Bai Ling, then. Tee hee.”

“We are reaching the Southern City soon. Let’s go in and see if we can gather any information,” Ling’er said as she looked at the city ahead of them.

If one went around the Southern City, one would be able to see a crystal blue sea, billowing with waves. As the Southern City was located at a remote location, it was a rather independent city. People had more autonomy the further away they were from the emperor. Neither the Imperial Guards or the Chen Clan Army could reach people here.

Ye Mo reached the city at about noon. He looked for a tavern and after lunch and some rest, he started looking for more information about the mirage. There were many people in the tavern. In fact, the tavern was nearly packed full with people. Ye Mo took out the remaining Mixed Energy Pills he had to rent a room. Next, an employee of the tavern came with several caddies of seafood and top quality liquor.

“Enjoy your meal, sir. Is there anything I can help with?” the employee asked.

“Is anything major happening at the southern sea? It’s very lively here at your tavern.”

The Southern City was a supplier of seafood. Some foodie warriors would come to the city just for the seafood. However, things were very lively here at this tavern, and Ye Mo did not think that this was related to seafood. If that was the case, then the mirage was definitely the reason.

“I do have a little knowledge about this. Every three years, the mirage appears at southern sea. Where the mirage appears, a Kraken House also appears. It is rumored that the Kraken House is where the elite fighters of the sea beast die in meditation. The time for the mirage to reappear again has arrived,” the employee explained while wiping Ye Mo’s table. When he was done, he hung the cloth on his shoulder and left.

“A mansion where the elite fighters of the sea beast die in meditation? Interesting.” Ye Mo raised his brow in thought. His interest was piqued. Although many factions would be trying to fight over this mansion, with Ye Mo’s current strength, he had no fear so long as no True Energy Realm fighters got involved.

“Brother Ye Mo, Ling’er needs your help with something.” Suddenly, Ling’er came out from Ye Mo’s Energy Center. She had grown taller again and obvious curves were starting to appear on her body as well.

She wore a flowery dress made of golden seals and had a delicate face with a pair of clear eyes that looked like two shining stars. Ye Mo noticed that there seemed to be some black energy trailing around her face.

“What happened to you?” Ye Mo was alarmed when he saw this. Was this the side effect of devouring the Evil Luosha Spirit Lord?

“That Evil Luosha Spirit Lord is much more powerful than I expected. Although he was seriously injured by the dragon projection, I am suffering from the backlash of directly devouring him. His Luosha Qi is now stuck on my face. Although it has no effect on me for now, it is a hidden danger.”

Of course, the black energy had still affected the good looks of Ling’er. Although Ye Mo was the only one who could see her, it was natural for women to want to be pretty.

“How can I help you?” Ye Mo frowned. This was the first time Ling’er had requested his help.

“There is a pill produced locally at the southern sea called the Pearl Pill. This is a pill that even alchemists cannot make. This is a pearl that grows naturally in the sea after absorbing the essence of the sea. If I can get a few of these pills, I will be able to cure the black energy on my face,” Ling’er said.

“I have heard of this Pearl Pill as well. Since this is the Southern City, there would definitely be some of those pilsl for sale. Of course, I have to get some of better quality for you.” Ye Mo decided on his course of action. However, he encountered a new problem. His Dimensional Bracelet had been taken by the Imperial Guards, so he was now penniless. He only had a few Mixed Energy Pills on him.

Stealing the pills would definitely not work. And as the Pearl Pill was the specialty of the Southern City, its price would definitely be high. He had to find a way to make some money. The fastest way to earn money was using his Dragon Power to perform Show Light on pills. And the prerequisite of performing Show Light was to have pills in his possession.

“I’ll research some money making methods tomorrow.” Ye Mo made up his mind and started enjoying the seafood. The meal tasted good, but Ling’er could only sit beside him resting her head on her palms while salivating.

“I only need to devour a huge soul energy one more time to rebuild my physical body. Although I won’t be able to recover my strength, I will be able to enjoy good food then. I no longer need to stay in your Energy Center as well.”

“Don’t worry. I will definitely help rebuild your body.”

After the meal, Ye Mo lay down and started sleeping. After so many incidents, such as the assassination and his imprisonment, Ye Mo needed a good rest. The next day, cracks started appearing on the sea with light shining out of them. Under the multicolored radiance, the tranquil sea appeared bright and resplendent.

Ye Mo woke up early in the morning. After leaving the tavern, he started strolling around the city. Due to the coming appearance of the mirage, the number of people in the city swelled. Each warrior present seemed powerful. After strolling about for a while, Ye Mo saw a notice pasted beside a building. A crowd was gathered around it.

“The Tong Clan is hiring sealing artists. Looks like they are determined to come out on top for the coming fight over the mirage.”

“So what if they are hiring sealing artists? The Tie Clan is no pushover.”

“Many outside warriors have also arrived for the mirage. The battle over the mirage will be interesting.”

“Second order sealing artist? It won’t be easy for them to find one. Moreover, there might not even be a sealing artist of this level here in this city.”

The crowd was deep in discussion about the notice on the side of the building.

“Recruiting sealing artists for the mirage?” Ye Mo’s eyes lit up as his lips curled up into a grin. Then, he vanished from the crowd.
