The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop

In the evening, Dong Xiao returned.

”Master, that imposter is planning to visit the Fenglan Sect,” Dong Xiao reported.

”What is she trying to do? Going so blatantly, does she really think that since you’ve never left Sky City, no one recognizes you?” Kong Hou sneered, ”Once the Elders find out someone is impersonating you, they’ll tear her apart!”

”To the Fenglan Sect, huh... we’ll go too. Let’s see what she’s up to,” Tianmiao said with interest.

”It won’t be anything good. We need to find out what kind of trouble she’s making and stop her,” Kong Hou clenched his fist, ”and smash her head in as well.”

”Let’s wait and see. The Fenglan Sect is reportedly very beautiful. We’re going to enjoy the scenery,” Tianmiao smiled, ”The Fenglan Sect is located in a large valley, surrounded by towering and steep mountains, yet the people of the Fenglan Sect have built many houses on these mountains, all connected by teleportation arrays. Their mastery of arrays is said to be the best in the world.”

”That impressive?” Kong Hou was tongue-tied; teleportation arrays are complex, and the Fenglan Sect actually has so many of them.

”They’re all small arrays; they can’t teleport very far. In fact, no one in this world can accomplish that yet; the capability is simply not there,” Tianmiao explained, ”However, the Fenglan Sect does have many unique features. For instance, there’s Monkey Mountain, Deer Forest, Squirrel Forest, Fox Hill, and so on. You can guess what they are just by their names, and none of the animals are afraid of people. Those little monkeys even ask travelers for food.”

”Then let’s go take a look; when do we set off?” Kong Hou asked with interest, ”Is the Fenglan Sect trying to open a zoo?”

”It’s indeed somewhat like that. All these forests are on the outskirts of the Fenglan Sect, and ordinary people are allowed in to play for a small fee. Besides treating people and selling elixirs, this is also a way to make money. Though not much, even the little profits count, as the Sect Master reportedly said. He also came up with this idea,” Tianmiao spoke with some admiration for the Fenglan Sect’s Sect Master.

Among the three major Sects and Sky City, the wealthiest is of course Sky City. Sky City teems with talents; whether in alchemy, artifact refining, or arrays, they’re among the best. The most profitable aspect is Sky City’s richer spiritual energy than other places, with cultivation yielding much better results, hence the high entrance fee. Not to mention the Bai Family’s inns located in Spiritual Eye Lands, where cultivation is doubly effective, making the stay decidedly expensive. This is one of Sky City’s main sources of revenue.

The next wealthiest is the Fenglan Sect. Their alchemy is exceptional, attracting many to come and request pill refinement, where the fee includes half of the produced elixirs plus additional payment. The Fenglan Sect also has pharmacies all over the world and charges for treating and saving people.

For such a wealthy Fenglan Sect, opening a ”wildlife park” to earn money from ordinary people is quite extraordinary. This Sect Master is truly a talent.

Early the next morning, Tianmiao and her two companions hired a carriage and set off for the Fenglan Sect. The Fenglan Sect isn’t far from Southwind City, just a few dozen miles away.

The entrance of the Fenglan Sect was quite bustling, with various vendors selling snacks and tea stands for sitting and drinking tea. There were quite a lot of visitors, even families with children coming to play. It really was a ”zoo.” After paying a small fee, Tianmiao and the others followed the crowd into the outskirts of the Fenglan Sect.
