Chapter 229 A simple exchange of words

The night in the sacred city of Yangjing is still so gorgeous.

The star tide splits the sky, the lights are bizarre, and the city that never sleeps is on fire.

The broken moon and the flowing light, the sand and the dust, weave an infinite web.

It was as if it was at the end of the Milky Way, with specks of light flying across the sky, and all things appearing in the flickering. The blue-green spiritual flow formed unique light patterns. This city on the clouds that never sleeps was still breathing, and with this breathing, the wind chimes on the pavilions sounded. Even at night, there were many minor officials and low-level gods who walked along the bridges to inspect the foundations of these buildings.

The blue spirit stream awakens under the tiles, light penetrates the clouds and mist, and the flying boat shuttles along the route.

Some of them fly by themselves. Young monks cannot afford flying boats or other flying magic tools, so they can only fly by themselves or rent one from others.

Thousands of floating lanterns light up one area after another, turning the city into an inverted Milky Way. The buildings rise and fall slowly with the energy tides. The shops on Suzaku Street are still shouting, and the rows of buildings are swaying layer by layer.

In this scene, a huge glazed skeleton stood in the air, as huge as the building of the inn. Gao Jian and Canghai were standing on the shoulders of the huge glazed skeleton.

The tour guide lady below was already petrified, and so were the tea doctors.

But they responded quickly.

That means kneeling down.

Kneeling is the most respectful posture and also the safest posture.

Respect means safety.

Gao Jian saw Canghai's reaction to other people around him, and Canghai was completely accustomed to it.

At this moment, Gao Jian felt a little suffocated.

Because he seemed to see things behind the beautiful scenery of the capital.

It was a more terrifying and deeper despair than Cangzhou.

For example, the vast ocean in front of us.

There is no doubt that what he did was definitely against the rules, as it was an illegal giant structure occupying the road, but... things like the law would obviously give in to a certain group of people.

Gao Jian discovered it.

The Divine Dynasty is the "ultimate privileged class" that exists openly.

They have legitimate immunity from the law, and no one can criticize them because no one else is qualified to criticize.

The reason is very simple, that is... the laws are actually made by them, and order actually exists because of them. If they give up order, all the laws and order of the entire Divine Dynasty will vanish in an instant.

These people are the 'high-level practitioners'.

As they actually possess powerful individual military force, they can even surpass the productivity of all the workshops in a city by themselves. In the sense of species, they are separated from ordinary mortals. Even if their numbers are piled up in large numbers, they cannot threaten the existence of these powerful practitioners... Things like laws are really a joke to them.

No one dares to question such privileges, and they cannot even question them because they 'deserve' such privileges, and it is natural for them to ignore the law both in fact and in reason.

Even billions of ants working together are not as good as a single thought from a high-level practitioner.

The power held by a high-level practitioner is unimaginable to mortals. Even if all mortals are combined, they may not be a match for a high-level practitioner. A high-level practitioner actually has the power to make all decisions in this world.

When the power gap is so large that the weaker party can be ignored, the stronger party can say that they don't need to care about anything else. Everything is nothing to such an absolutely strong party, so laws, opinions of the weak, sociality, productivity, etc.

Everything is unnecessary for such a strong man. He alone represents the opinions of all the weak. The sociality of the weak is established because of his compassion. His productivity alone surpasses that of the entire society.

Look at the God's Capital in front of us. The power needed to maintain a metropolis of this level is simply not something that mortals can bear. It must be maintained by these super strong people.

In other words, the entire Yangjing is actually a society that is completely dependent on the will of the strong.

Therefore, the strong can naturally become the ultimate privileged class, a privileged class that no one can say anything about.

The Tai students are such a privileged class.

Of course, in reality they do not yet possess the power possessed by the privileged class. With the level of the fourth, fifth, and sixth realms, they have no right to say in the God's capital that they can ignore the law to a certain extent.

But they are Tai students.

They are already standing outside the door of privilege, and they are destined to be among the privileged. It makes no difference whether they are given it earlier or later, so it is better to give it now.

This is the power of being a Tai student.

When that huge glass skeleton blatantly violated the law, forced everyone to wait, and even damaged some public property, and should have been punished, no one dared to talk about the law.

It is really not a crime for a Tai student to kill someone, as long as he does not kill someone of the same privileged class.

Gao Jian saw this situation very clearly at this moment.

After Gao Jian arrived in the capital of gods, he once again saw the true situation of this world.

Besides, he couldn't even argue with it.

After seeing the splendor of the divine capital, how can you refute the privileges of these powerful people?

unfair?
What a joke, would you talk about fairness with ants?

Even the bottom route is not allowed.

In a place where people have the ability to practice, and their combat effectiveness, even productivity, and even individual wisdom and intelligence, all vary greatly due to their level of practice, it is particularly funny to take the bottom route in such a place.

In that kind of evil world, it is really possible for an aristocratic lord from an aristocratic family to say with disgust on his face: "This generation of people is no good."

Having said that, he then walked out the door, and could easily and indiscriminately kill every breathing being in front of him, and then slowly cultivate the ones he liked.

They have the ability and qualifications to do so. If anyone says they are not qualified, they can let that person know what "power" is.

Strength is the qualification to do so.

Originally in Cangzhou, Gao Jian still thought that by going to the capital, he might be able to have some influence.

But after actually arriving in the Divine Capital, witnessing the density of practitioners there, and seeing what just happened...

A glimpse of the leopard in the tube can be seen.

Gao Jian is a smart man, so just from here, Gao Jian can realize in an instant the existence of this ultimate privileged class.

A privilege that cannot be refuted or violated.

At this moment, Gao Jian suddenly felt his heart skip a beat.

"What's wrong with you?" Canghai patted Gao Jian's shoulder, a little confused.

Just at that moment, Gao Jian seemed to have seen something horrifying, and even broke out in a cold sweat.

Is it that serious? He just patted him. This junior student dared to fight with him just now, and he even forced him to the point of exchanging injuries for his life.

"Oh... nothing." Gao Jian suddenly came to his senses and wiped his sweat, "It was just that the senior suddenly said he wanted to see the real dragon, which scared me."

"Ha! Well, if you don't like it, then forget it. But don't blame me for being nosy. Although they say that people talk a lot when they are just strangers, I like you very much, so I'm just mentioning it. If you want to listen, you can listen. If you don't want to, just pretend I didn't say anything." Canghai paused here, as if he was observing Gao Jian's reaction.

"I will listen to what you say, Senior." Gao Jian bowed slightly. "Whether it's right or wrong?" Canghai asked specifically.

"There is no right or wrong in what the senior can say. It just depends on whether you agree with it or not. Moreover, no matter whether you agree with it or not, it should be valuable advice. After listening to it, whether you do it or not, it will be of great benefit. At least it can let me know something about the situation in the capital of gods." Gao Jian said.

Canghai frowned when he saw Gao Jian like this: "You don't look like a warrior, you look a bit slick."

But he immediately smiled in relief: "However, I saw the murderous intent in your knife just now. Under your slippery skin, there is a killer in your body. It's quite interesting. Then I will say it directly. The relationship between East China Sea and the Divine Dynasty is one of you in me and me in you. Although there are some frictions on the surface, business still needs to be done, and it is impossible for everyone to really turn against each other. Therefore, it is no problem for the real dragon to walk around in the Divine Capital without restraint."

"So, on the surface, the real dragon will not bring any impact. On the contrary, it will increase your value and make you appear to have a wide network of contacts and deep connections. These are all benefits, not disadvantages."

Gao Jian didn't say anything and continued to listen to the other party.

"It's just... when a true dragon is in Yangjing, its cultivation speed will slow down and its temperament will change. For the specific reasons, you may need to investigate the Ministry of Rites." Canghai said.

After saying this, Gao Jian's expression looked a little painful.

No wonder the other party stacks armor before speaking.

This kind of talk can indeed be described as "talking too much to someone you just met" and "talking too much".

No, is this to sow discord between Gao Jian and the Ministry of Rites? Is he accusing the Ministry of Rites of being unfavorable to Dansha?

Does Gao Jian believe it or not?
If he believed it, would Canghai believe it? How could he believe such nonsense when he met someone for the first time? And for such a thing, he really had to be on guard against or even investigate the Ministry of Rites? Wouldn't it cost anything?
If you choose not to believe it, what will happen to your relationship with Canghai? They also have something to say. The senior reminded you with good intentions, but you turned a deaf ear to it. If they have such news in the future, they will definitely not tell you.

Blocked on both sides.

It's not right to believe it, nor is it right to disbelieve it. Even the answer is hard to give. It's truly a classic example of 'talking deeply to someone you just met', and it's purely forcing brilliant ideas into a difficult situation.

Seeing Gao Jian's subtle expression, Canghai naturally knew how embarrassing what he said was, so he scratched his head, smiled, and said, "Don't take it to heart, just pretend I didn't say anything. Since you said you can find the way, I'll leave first. I'll see you in a few days, Taixue. I'll be waiting for you to report in these few days."

After Canghai finished speaking, the huge glass skeleton under him began to move.

Gao Jian then jumped down and returned to the floating corridor of the inn, saying, "Then take care, senior. I won't see you off."

"Don't see me off! I'm leaving first! When you get to the Imperial College, just tell me my name!" Canghai said as the giant glazed skeleton rushed all the way, pushing aside other buildings and walking away in a swagger.

This behavior is worthy of being the 'ultimate privileged class'.

After watching the other person leave, Gao Jian turned around and looked at the room in the inn.

There, Dansha had obviously been woken up. When the giant glass skeleton took action, she was already awakened, and then she quietly lay through the window crack to watch Gao Jian.

Through the crack of the window, Dansha looked at Gao Jian with a look as subtle as Gao Jian's.

Obviously, she heard those words too.

These words were just as awkward to her.

How to deal with it? Believe it or not? If you believe it, Dansha will leave Yangjing? Or will he go against the Ministry of Rites, or even investigate the Ministry of Rites?

If you don’t believe it, what if something really happens?

For Gao Jian, not believing is just a sign of bad relations with his senior, but for Dan Sha, not believing is a risk...

This senior student really gave Gao Jian a big problem as soon as he arrived.

But there is nothing we can do. It is not easy to blame the other party. Maybe the other party really means well.

So Gao Jian sighed.

He looked again at the many people kneeling nearby.

"Everyone, get up."

After leaving these words, Gao Jian knew that he could not stay in the corridor anymore, so he took the initiative to return to the room.

Just when she returned, she saw Dansha inside, looking at her with a faint look in her eyes, her beautiful golden pupils blinking, obviously asking for Gao Jian's opinion.

Gao Jian rolled his eyes.

What opinion could he have? No opinion!

Let’s wait and see tomorrow!

"Let's stay in Yangjing for a while first. We have too few clues and have no way of judging whether it's true or false. After a few days, we'll get familiar with the situation and know how to deal with it." Gao Jian said, spreading his hands.

"Well, I believe you." Dansha nodded, then lay down and went to sleep again.

However, looking at the other person's back, Gao Jian could feel it.

She is afraid.

What an insecure little girl.

But it was hard to say anything. After all, she had died once, so she naturally knew the danger. As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years.

It wouldn't be a good idea to leave her alone at this time.

So Gao Jian took the initiative to walk over, sat by her window, and patted her shoulder.

Dansha then turned over in bed, lay under the quilt, and looked at Gao Jian with her big eyes.

In fact, she didn't blink or cry or anything, she just turned around and looked at Gao Jian, but her eyes did seem to flicker whenever they were open.

"Don't worry. Didn't Jingjiang-jun say anything? He must know that you came to Shendu. He must have heard about the problems in Shendu. He didn't tell you about these, so I think there should be no problem." Gao Jian said.

After hearing this, Dansha seemed to feel relieved and his expression was obviously not as tense anymore.

"Besides, don't you still have me here? Don't worry, I'm always watching you. I will definitely find out if anything happens." Gao Jian patted her shoulder and said so.

Following Gao Jian's words, Dansha looked at him and asked, "Really? Promise."

"I promise."

"Then I have to follow you all the time... Otherwise, if I leave your sight, I'm afraid something will happen."

"Then just follow."

"Okay, you promised me that."

"Well, I'll go to bed first."

Gao Jian stood up.

Dansha also stood up.

"Huh?" Gao Jian turned around.

etc--

This also has to do with?
