Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chapter 757: Chapter 777: Entering Nine Nether City

Princess Yiyi checked her attire and confirmed there was nothing amiss before saying, ”Let’s head back to Jiuyou City first. You should find an inn to stay temporarily. After I inform my father about our situation, I’ll bring you to meet him. Otherwise, if we go abruptly, I’m afraid he’ll blame you. After all, I’m his only daughter, and he’s very strict about choosing a husband.”

”That’s no problem. Once you’ve handled everything, come find me. But before that, could you let my sister come out to see me? We haven’t met for a long time, and I’d like to see how she’s doing now,” Chu Linfeng said, not really concerned about what Princess Yiyi was talking about.

If her father doesn’t agree, it’s actually better. It saves me from a lot of trouble, though I feel a bit sorry for Princess Yiyi. But if he disagrees, I can’t just shamelessly insist until he agrees, right? Any request should come from Princess Yiyi, not me.

Then, Chu Linfeng pulled Princess Yiyi swiftly into the sky. With an instant teleportation, they appeared above Jiuyou City. Princess Yiyi looked at Chu Linfeng in complete surprise and said, ”Lin Feng, why are you so fast now? When I was chasing you, you weren’t this fast.”

”Of course, I had to lure you into chasing me; otherwise, how could I eat you up? Regret it now?” Chu Linfeng laughed.

”No, I’m just surprised. You’re truly remarkable; it seems I chose the right person. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely convince my father to agree to our marriage,” Princess Yiyi said with great confidence.

Subsequently, the two chose a secluded spot to descend, deliberately separating to avoid attention. Before parting, Princess Yiyi instructed Chu Linfeng to wait for her at the Xiangyun Inn in Jiuyou City, to which Chu Linfeng readily agreed.

After Princess Yiyi left, Chu Linfeng didn’t rush into the city. Instead, he took out the human skin mask and disguised himself again. Since many people had seen him at the city gate, he didn’t want to make a scene today.

After getting everything ready, he slowly walked onto the official road, soon arriving at the city gate. At this time, there were still numerous people coming and going, but no one paid attention to the unfamiliar human race man that was Chu Linfeng.

”To enter the city, you must present a city entry permit for inspection!” a guard stopped Chu Linfeng and said.

”No city entry permit, no entry to Jiuyou City!” the guard reiterated, glancing at Chu Linfeng.

”Is there another way? Where can a city entry permit be obtained?” Chu Linfeng asked helplessly, not wanting to cause trouble at the moment. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to stay in Jiuyou City.

”You can enter the city by paying one thousand nether stones; then you can freely come and go. Next time you enter, you’ll need to pay one thousand nether stones again. To obtain a city entry permit, you also need to pay one thousand nether stones, but it allows unlimited use. The entry permit can be processed at Wenjiang City, a thousand miles away. It’s up to you!” the guard explained.

Chu Linfeng thought of saying it was robbery, but refrained from saying so. He directly retrieved one thousand nether stones from his storage ring and handed them to the guard, saying, ”Can I enter the city now?”

The guard hastily took the nether stones and replied, ”You may, you may!” Chu Linfeng then walked straight into the city, as several other guards began to gather.

”Lucky day, stumbled upon a fat sheep today! Brothers, our drink money for this month is secured. Let’s have a good drink once the shift ends,” the guard said.

”Of course, sticking with Brother Wang is great! We’ll definitely toast Brother Wang well today!” another chimed in.

All these words were clearly heard by Chu Linfeng, who realized that he was extorted by a mere guard, finding it quite amusing.

Walking along the streets of Jiuyou City, vendors were everywhere, selling a variety of goods. People from the Five Great Races could be seen, but Chu Linfeng wasn’t interested in these items. He needed to find the Xiangyun Inn that Princess Yiyi mentioned; perhaps he’d soon meet Lin Ruoxi.

Shops lined the streets with everything one could need; teahouses and taverns were everywhere. Having walked for quite a while, Chu Linfeng still hadn’t found the so-called Xiangyun Inn, as he couldn’t read the Netherworld characters. Neither could Qingshuang.

”Hey brother, could you tell me how to get to Xiangyun Inn?” Chu Linfeng asked a middle-aged man from the human race upon seeing him.

The man gave Chu Linfeng a glance and replied, ”Are you kidding me? This is Xiangyun Inn! Didn’t you see the sign with those giant characters? How absurd!”

Chu Linfeng turned around to find a large sign indeed, with characters written on it, feeling embarrassed. ”I didn’t notice it, thank you!”

Upon entering the inn, a servant eagerly greeted him. The inn servant was from the human race, his strength seemingly at the Seventh and Eighth Layers of the Divine Martial Realm. He was well-built and not unattractive, asking Chu Linfeng promptly:

”Guest, are you here to stay or dine? Our Xiangyun Inn is among the most famous inns in Jiuyou City. Any human race individual visiting here tends to choose us because our owner belongs to the human race.”

”Oh, I’m here to stay. Get me a nice room, and while you’re at it, prepare some exquisite dishes and a pot of wine. Make sure it’s human race wine, not any ghost race wine, which tastes terrible,” Chu Linfeng offhandedly instructed.

”Please follow me, guest!” The servant immediately escorted Chu Linfeng inside the inn and soon arrived at a room on the second floor.

The room’s furnishings were decent, with complete furniture. ”Guest, wait a moment; your wine and dishes will be brought soon!” said the servant before leaving the room.

Sitting at the table, Chu Linfeng took out a demon core from his storage ring, intending to absorb its energy here in the inn. Even though he had broken through to the Fourth Layer of the Saint Martial Realm, the Sword Spirit had mentioned that his current strength was insufficient. To complete his mission, he needed to enhance his power.

Before long, the servant returned with wine and dishes. Chu Linfeng handed him several nether stones, saying, ”Don’t disturb me unless a human race lady comes looking for me.”

”Understood, understood!” the servant exclaimed joyfully and left, surprised by such a generous guest, who at once handed over more than a hundred nether stones.

Among the nether stones given to him was one of the upper grade, which Chu Linfeng hadn’t noticed. He also didn’t know if there had been any in those he’d given to the guard earlier; if so, Chu Linfeng would certainly be more agitated.

”After being in the Netherworld for so long, today marks the first time I can properly have a meal here. It’s not easy!” Chu Linfeng chuckled to himself, pouring a cup of human race wine and downing it in one gulp.

After eating and drinking to his content, Chu Linfeng sat by the bed and began carefully examining the demon core. He knew the core mainly affected the self within his mind, curious about what changes might occur after absorbing its energy...
