Chapter 828: Indifferent Faces

That ancient style compared with the imposing and opulent buildings here was like the difference between heaven and earth.

No wonder people wanted to cultivate pills even when they had pure spiritual power; it was because they could make a whole lot of money from it.

After all, people would die for money.

So what if they could cultivate into immortals and live for thousands of years? What fun was there in hanging around in the clouds every day?

They might as well enjoy their lives on earth with money and status.

The people of Rising Clouds Empire were obviously more open-minded than in the other two countries, and they weren’t stingy with spending money. The people on the streets were all dressed in silk and satin. The women had exquisite makeup on, and the young men were all handsome and pleasing to the eye.

Even the poor ones whose clothes weren’t of the greatest quality were still neat and tidy, without a single strand of hair out of place.

The hawkers also did business in an orderly manner, but unlike the other two countries, they were indifferent rather than enthusiastic.

Few people greeted each other on the streets.

Those of lower statuses would step aside when they saw someone of a higher status.

Though the streets were bustling, they weren’t crowded. As those with low statuses gave way to those with high statuses, things weren’t the least bit disorderly.

The carriage stopped in front of a magnificent inn, and Feng Qingtian helped Gu Bailu out.

Someone was already waiting for them in front of the inn. Seeing them come down, he immediately greeted them. “My lord, my lady, the room is ready. Please follow me.”

Gu Bailu raised her head and saw a gold plaque in front of the inn. “Dragon Phoenix Inn.”

Was it made of white jade?

Gu Bailu really wanted to cut into it to see if it was real.

“My lord, how much is a night here?” Gu Bailu asked in a low voice.

Feng Qingtian thought for a moment. “About a hundred taels of silver.”

Gu Bailu’s eyes bulged. “That’s expensive!”

It was even more expensive than a presidential suite in a five-star hotel!

“Don’t come in if you can’t afford it. Look at how you’re dressed. You’re just staying at an inn and you’re already so long-winded. Can just anyone stay at the Dragon and Phoenix Inn now?” A woman sitting in a jade chair on the side and drinking tea snorted disdainfully.

Gu Bailu was confused. She looked at Feng Qingtian innocently and said, “I was just sighing. Why did she get annoyed?”

Darling felt wronged.

One hundred taels of silver a night was very expensive. It had to be known that families with lower statuses could only earn that much in a year, not to mention those in remote villages.

“Don’t be upset, we can just kill her.” With that, Feng Qingtian slapped the woman.

The woman was still enjoying her tea and feeling smug and conceited in her superior position after dissing someone, when a sudden force knocked her cup over and the tea scalded her. She jumped up, and another force sent her flying into the white jade wall.

Blood immediately splattered everywhere, painting the white marble red.

Gu Bailu’s lips twitched. “My lord, it isn’t good to be so violent, is it? This is someone else’s territory.”

Feng Qingtian touched the top of her head. “If this was our territory, she wouldn’t even have a chance to speak.”

People instantly gathered around the inn at the commotion. The guards in the inn rushed over and surrounded Feng Qingtian and Gu Bailu. “How dare you! Who’s causing trouble at the Dragon Phoenix Inn?”
