Wild Dogs

These people were certain that Yang Fan would not indiscriminately kill innocent people, so they hesitated and slowly stood up.

After the group stood up, Yang Fan glanced at them and then asked in a low voice.

"By the way, tell me, where is this Cloud Ascension Exchange Meeting held?"

Yang Fan's purpose in going out this time was to purchase materials. He now has a lot of spirit stones on him, so he can stock up on more.

Since there was such an exchange fair, he decided not to go to the nearby market, but to go directly to the fair to trade, where he was sure he could get more good things.

The old man nodded hurriedly, then carefully pointed to his storage bag.

"Sir, senior, there is a map in this storage bag."

Yang Fan rummaged through the contents and found a scroll. When he opened it, it indeed contained a map.

Yang Fan then handed the map to the old man, who lightly tapped the map with his fingertip.

"This is where the exchange meeting is being held."

Yang Fan picked up the map and saw that it was Dengyun City.

"I see."

"What's the story behind this Dengyun City?"

Yang Fan was somewhat worried, fearing that, like Cangyun City before, it would be controlled by a single force.

The old man then began to introduce the situation of Dengyun City.

"This Dengyun City is the largest city outside the Land of Absolute Spirits, and it is jointly controlled by the four major families in the vicinity."

"Every five years, a month-long exchange fair is held in Dengyun City, where everyone exchanges the supplies they need."

"I was on my way there to trade some things, but I didn't expect to run into these thieves on the way."

Yang Fan smiled slightly.

"I gave you one hundred high-grade spirit stones. I don't think you could get that many things even if you traded all your resources."

The old man shook his head repeatedly.

"How could that be? Even if I traded everything I have, I could only get twenty high-grade spirit stones at most."

"I spent ten high-grade spirit stones just to buy the tokens for the Cloud Ascension Exchange Meeting, so I still made a profit."

Yang Fan nodded.

"Alright, since I've already given you one hundred high-grade spirit stones, I'll take this token. You have no objections, right?"

The old man nodded repeatedly.

"I wouldn't dare to have any complaints about my seniors, I wouldn't dare."

"You're overthinking it, senior. I have so much respect for you, how could I possibly blame you?"

Yang Fan laughed heartily, then waved his hand.

"Alright, since you're so sensible, I won't make things difficult for you."

Yang Fan then leaped into the air and flew away on his sword into the distance.

Only after Yang Fan had gone far away did the old man wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

Behind him, the other disciples looked at the old man.

"Senior brother, we don't need to be so afraid of him."

"This person took our tokens without even discussing it with us."

The old man turned around and glared at him fiercely.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"If we anger this senior, we'll all be in deep trouble."

"You still dare to argue with this senior?"

The other person next to him was equally unconvinced.

"But senior brother, this person is obviously very easy to talk to. Since he's easy to talk to, why don't we take this opportunity to ask for more things?"

Before he could finish speaking, the old man gave him a disapproving look.

"You think you can take advantage of someone's easygoing nature to extort money from them?"

"Do they really think they have too much time on their hands?"

"To not know how to behave oneself in front of such a powerful person, and even dare to ask for things, is no different from courting death?"

After saying this, the old man let out a long breath, clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and kept praying in his heart that he would have a safe journey home.

He then walked over, collected all the storage bags from the corpses on the ground, and opened them one by one.

"Alright, let's divide everything in here equally."

"Don't tell anyone about this when you get back, understand?"

"Yes."

These people certainly understood the principle of not flaunting their wealth. They had already made a fortune by being able to share the wealth of more than a dozen people, so their initial dissatisfaction vanished.

Meanwhile, Yang Fan, holding a map, headed towards Dengyun City.

He has now obtained the token for the Cloud Exchange Conference, and as long as he gets there, he can participate in the conference.

Dengyun City is quite far from here.

Yang Fan flew for several days before finally seeing the massive city in the distance.

Although the old man had warned him that Dengyun City was very large when he received the token, Yang Fan couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement when he saw the city in front of him.

The city ahead spanned hundreds of miles in circumference, and was shrouded in layers of extremely large restrictions.

Looking at the restrictions, Yang Fan couldn't help but praise, "What a wonderful place."

Seeing this, Yang Fan breathed a slight sigh of relief. Since the formation was so massive, the city was actually much safer.

In smaller cities, it is likely that they are controlled by individual families. Such a large city cannot be controlled by a single force. Trading here is actually more secure.

Yang Fan took a deep breath and then sped up his pace toward Dengyun City.

When he flew to the vicinity of Dengyun City, he landed on the ground. After thinking for a while, he took out a mask from his storage bag and put it on his face.

He's dealing in quite a few items this time, so it's best to conceal his appearance just to be on the safe side.

After doing all this, Yang Fan headed towards Dengyun City.

After a while, Yang Fan arrived at the foot of Dengyun City. Standing outside the barrier and looking at the thick barrier light in front of him, he took a deep breath and flew directly towards the patrolling guards outside the city.

The guards, who were stationed at the entrance to the restricted area, bowed to Yang Fanfei as he approached.

"May I ask what brings you here, my friend?"

Because they were unaware of Yang Fan's background, they were quite polite to him.

Yang Fan waved his hand, directly revealing the name of the Dengyun Exchange Meeting: "May I ask how many days you wish to stay in Dengyun City?"

The man asked casually.

Yang Fan raised an eyebrow.

"Oh? So even with the Ascension Token, you can't stay inside indefinitely?"

The man shook his head slightly.

"This city is protected by restrictions. Unless one is a non-resident or has spent a lot of money to buy a cave dwelling in the city, there is a time limit for entering the city."

"Participation tokens for events like the Cloud Ascension Exchange are also subject to time limits; it all depends on how many spirit stones you're willing to spend to purchase more days."

Yang Fan raised an eyebrow.

"So, entering Dengyun City requires spending spirit stones to purchase a corresponding amount of time?"

"Yes."

The man nodded.

Yang Fan frowned.

"How much does it cost to stay in Dengyun City for one day?"

The man then explained in detail.

"It costs twenty spirit stones to stay in our Dengyun City for a day."

"The Cloud Computing Trade Fair has now begun and will last for a month."

"It depends on how long you want to stay."

Yang Fan raised an eyebrow.

"Then give me five days."

With a wave of his hand, one hundred spirit stones flew out immediately.
