Chapter 83 – Purchase game property
Lin Jichen transformed into a gust of wind, racing towards the center of Fengqu City.
There lay the palace of the Hidden Dragon Royal Family, the rulers of the entire Mu Xian Province.
Though the Hidden Dragon Royal Family only governed mortal cities, their foundation and strength were no less than any top-tier sect.
The current emperor of the Hidden Dragon Royal Family, Ji Hongyue, was also at the Feather Transformation Realm.Follow the latest novels on oreover, the royal family was filled with experts, having ruled Mu Xian Province’s mortal realm for centuries, making them the second most powerful force after the sects.
As the palace of the Hidden Dragon Royal Family, it occupied the entire northern part of Fengqu City and was heavily guarded, making it impossible for players to enter.
Lin Jichen dared to go there because of his reputation.
Reputation was like a business card for players; the higher it was, the more attention they received from NPCs.
Moreover, reputation was key to purchasing city land.
Lin Jichen now had 1120 reputation points, enough to go to the palace and buy land.
"Stop! The palace is forbidden; no trespassing!"
Outside the palace gates, the guards stopped him.
Even the guards on duty were at the later stage of Foundation Establishment.
These soldiers were battle-hardened, clad in armor, exuding a fierce aura, clearly not to be trifled with.
"I’m here to purchase city property and open a shop," Lin Jichen said politely.
The guard, hearing this, told him to wait while he went inside to report.
After a while, a eunuch-like figure came out, speaking in a sharp voice, "Follow me."
"Go ahead," the guard finally allowed him to pass.
Lin Jichen walked into the Hidden Dragon Palace, following the eunuch through the palace.
He had never been to the Hidden Dragon Palace before.
Golden domes and red gates, magnificent halls, jade towers, and golden pavilions—every building was extremely luxurious, showcasing the royal family's power and status.
The palace was divided into inner and outer sections; Lin Jichen, of course, couldn’t enter the inner palace.
Led by the eunuch, he arrived at a side hall in the outer temple, with a plaque reading: City Administration Hall.
This was equivalent to a modern city hall, handling city planning and civil affairs.
Inside, someone handed Lin Jichen a map, marking all the unsold properties in Fengqu City.
Looking at the unsold properties, Lin Jichen felt a small thrill.
Lin Jichen carefully selected and finally chose a shop next to Autumn Moon Pavilion, which was also a pharmacy in his previous life.
It cost 50,000 Spirit Stones and required 800 reputation points.
Fortunately, he had sold a small batch of Corpse Poison Potions to gather some funds; otherwise, he couldn’t afford the 50,000 Spirit Stones.
After buying the small shop, Lin Jichen’s newly filled wallet deflated again.
And his 1120 reputation points dropped to 320.
Back to square one.
After receiving the deed, Lin Jichen reluctantly looked at the remaining properties on the map, unwilling to leave.
"The Third Prince arrives!"
The eunuch at the door shouted, and everyone in the City Administration Hall knelt down.
Only Lin Jichen remained unmoved.
Soon, a young man in a luxurious robe, with a regal bearing, walked in.
This was Ji Hongyue’s third son, Ji Chen.
Behind Ji Chen was a small, delicate, eunuch-like attendant.
"Rise, I’m just strolling around. I was about to leave the palace and passed by the City Administration Hall. I heard a cultivator was buying property, the first to meet the requirements in Fengqu City’s open recruitment. I wanted to see."
Ji Chen spoke gently, looking at the only person still standing in the hall—Lin Jichen.
Their eyes met, and Ji Chen was surprised by Lin Jichen’s attire.
"May I ask if you are a disciple of the Tianyan Sword Sect?"
"Indeed," Lin Jichen replied calmly.
"Judging by your attire, you seem to be an Inner Temple disciple?"
Everyone was surprised; Inner Temple disciples of the Tianyan Sword Sect were elite, the cream of the crop.
The attendant behind Ji Chen also curiously examined Lin Jichen.
Seeing Lin Jichen’s handsome and extraordinary appearance, the attendant blushed slightly, quickly looking away.
"The Third Prince has sharp eyes," Lin Jichen didn’t hide anything.
Though the Hidden Dragon Royal Family was powerful, his Tianyan Sword Sect was even more so.
After all, the Tianyan Sword Sect was a top sect in Mu Xian Province; the Hidden Dragon Royal Family wouldn’t dare to act against him without reason.
"Truly an honor. May I ask which elder you are apprenticed to?" Ji Chen asked, already showing an interest in forming a connection.
