Chapter 540 Yihuang Province

"Because I don't dare." The Little Girl replied, her voice still holding a hint of fear.

"We usually only receive Cultivators of the Heaven-Reaching Realm. If it's anything above the Profound Core Realm, we wouldn't dare go over."

Xiao Fan nodded and asked the girl a few more things.

He also knew that his current location was indeed not Wuhuang Province.

But rather Yihuang Province…

Xiao Fan had only learned about this large province from ancient texts; it was not too far from Wuhuang Province, and they were adjacent to each other.

But even so, estimating with his current strength, wanting to fly back would still take several decades.

Moreover, that was under the condition of returning safely, not counting the dangers encountered along the way…

He hadn't expected that instead of returning to Wuhuang Province in the end, he would arrive directly at this Yihuang Province.

"Let's take it one step at a time!" Xiao Fan let out a breath, and he also learned from The Little Girl that the city they were currently in was called Linze City.

Within the territory of Yihuang Province, it was a small-to-medium-sized city.

The strongest person was the City Lord, whose Realm was at the Origin Soul Realm Great Perfection!

In this city, there were major families, but unlike Wuhuang Province…

The imperial Family of Yihuang Province had very strong control over each city.

Those truly powerful factions and families all had separate cities, and they would not conflict with the imperial power of Yihuang Province!

As for more profound questions, The Little Girl leading the way did not know.

Xiao Fan had The Little Girl lead the way, and he first found a local Merchant Firm that could exchange Spirit Stones.

The exchange ratio for Spirit Stones provided by all Merchant Firms was the same, 1:100.

However, the Merchant Firm would reasonably charge a 10% handling fee, which was unavoidable.

After all, with the value being the same, who would work for nothing.

Xiao Fan didn't care about that much; his net worth was abundant.

With the Spirit Stones previously given to him by various families, as well as the Spirit Stones received from his wedding before, he now had nearly one hundred million Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

Xiao Fan exchanged for one hundred thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, equivalent to ten million Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

In an instant, he emptied out a Merchant Firm!

Even the shopkeeper of the Merchant Firm didn't want to trade with Xiao Fan anymore… This fellow was too terrifying.

But Xiao Fan's Realm was Profound Core Realm Great Perfection, and he wasn't causing trouble either, so the shopkeeper didn't dare to offend him and still exchanged it for Xiao Fan.

Of course, he didn't collect a single bit less of the handling fee.

The Little Girl didn't go in, but waited outside instead.

After Xiao Fan came out with the exchanged Spirit Stones, he asked her where he could buy Spiritual Plants, Spirit Medicine, and finished Medicinal Pills.

The Little Girl was very familiar with Linze City and directly led Xiao Fan there.

Xiao Fan bought quite a few Spiritual Plants and Spirit Medicine. The medicinal fragrance emitted by the Spiritual Materials here was several times stronger than that of Wuhuang Province.

Xiao Fan also purchased some Medicinal Pills for healing injuries and restoring spiritual power.

What shocked Xiao Fan was that a small city actually sold grade 5 pills!

He was so shocked that he was almost speechless.

At the same time, he realized the barrenness of Wuhuang Province. In Wuhuang Province, most grade 5 pills could only be seen at auctions.

Inferior grade 5 pills, like the Barrier-Breaking Pill on Xiao Fan's body, might require several million Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

But some valuable grade 5 pills could even be auctioned off for an astronomical price!

Xiao Fan spent twenty thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones to purchase some grade 4 pills before leaving.

He had purchased Spiritual Materials, so he could refine them himself when he had time.

After all, he was now also at the Peak of a Grade 4 Alchemist.

"Take me to a restaurant." Xiao Fan looked toward The Little Girl.

The Little Girl was very well-behaved and led Xiao Fan to the largest restaurant in Linze City.

"The rooms here are very large, and the spiritual power is very abundant." The Little Girl introduced.

Xiao Fan smiled; he estimated that if he stayed in this one, The Little Girl would be able to get quite a bit of referral fee.

He didn't refuse and chose this one. After checking in, Xiao Fan gave The Little Girl three Mid-Grade Spirit Stones as remuneration.

The Little Girl was so excited that she thanked him repeatedly, secretly collected a portion of Spirit Stones from the restaurant as well, and left joyfully.

"Senior, which type of room would you like to stay in! We have three grades here!" The front desk shopkeeper introduced.

Xiao Fan's cultivation was Profound Core Realm Great Perfection, which could be considered an expert in this Linze City.

Being called Senior, Xiao Fan was still a bit unaccustomed to it for a moment.

However, since he was now at Profound Core Realm Great Perfection, if he were in Wuhuang Province, he would probably be classified as a powerhouse!

He was very generous and directly ordered the most expensive room!

"Alright, Senior, the most expensive guest room is five hundred Spirit Stones a day!" The shopkeeper introduced, leading the way for Xiao Fan with a smile blooming like a flower.

Xiao Fan was speechless; he hadn't expected it to be so expensive. Originally, he wanted two rooms, wanting to get a separate one for the Mysterious Woman.

After all, the Mysterious Woman was currently unconscious; if the two of them slept together, it seemed rather inappropriate.

It wasn't that he was afraid of anything else, mainly he was afraid of death!

The Mysterious Woman was terrifyingly strong. If she woke up and was unsatisfied, what would he do if she slapped him to death with a single palm?

He sleeps on the bed, I'll sleep on the floor… Xiao Fan thought about it and decided to just get one room. When the Mysterious Woman woke up by then, he would just say it was to take care of her.

Five hundred Spirit Stones, what was referred to here were all Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

That was equivalent to fifty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones a day!

This was just Xiao Fan. If it were anyone else, even the head of a major Family in Wuhuang Province would probably hurt so much they'd cry.
