"Ah…A-choo!"

Ye Ling, who was in the carriage, suddenly sneezed violently, causing Zhu Zhuqing, who was in the same carriage, to frown.

"Someone must be talking about me behind my back!"

Ye Ling touched his nose awkwardly.

No matter what, sneezing in front of a girl is always ungraceful.

"Second Miss Zhu, you have been with us all the way."

Looking at the girl next to him, Ye Ling couldn't help but joke.

"Aren't you afraid that we are bad guys and will do something bad to you?"

Zhu Zhuqing looked straight at Ye Ling with her black and white eyes and asked in a cold voice.

"So, you are bad guys?"

"Of course!"

Ye Ling laughed and slowly moved closer to Zhu Zhuqing.

"I am a very bad person."

"When we get to a place where there is no one, I will do something extreme to the Second Miss."

Teasing Zhu Zhuqing occasionally has almost become one of the rare pleasures for Ye Ling on this journey.

Seeing Ye Ling leaning towards her, Zhu Zhuqing did not avoid him at all, but just looked at Ye Ling as if he was a fool.

"You're lying!"

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly spoke up.

How should I put it? It may be a problem with my original family.

Zhu Zhuqing has always had this kind of cold look and temperament.

She seemed to know that Ye Ling was not a bad person, so she usually did not respond to Ye Ling's teasing and flirting.

"I asked Grandpa Tai Tan who is driving outside, and he said you are going to Gengjin City."

"And I know this road, it's the road to Gengjin City."

"So you're not going to take me to some deserted place."

Ye Ling felt somewhat embarrassed when his thoughts were revealed by a little girl.

But it also proves from the side that although Zhu Zhuqing is a girl who doesn't talk much, she is definitely a very meticulous person.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task of improving the reputation of the Butian Pavilion in the soul master world and expanding the influence of the Butian Pavilion in the soul master world! ]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Young Soul Master Five-Consecutive Summoning Card. ]

[Ding! The host triggers the mission: Conquer the master craftsman Lou Gao! ]

[Quest Reward: Complete Collection of Soul Techniques.]

Ye Ling, who was about to continue teasing, was slightly stunned.

The information that came to his mind one after another made him a little confused about the situation.

I clearly didn't do anything, so why did I suddenly complete the task of increasing the influence of Butian Pavilion?

[Do you want to use the Young Soul Master Five-Consecutive Summoning Card? ]

"Don't use yet."

Ye Ling shook his head.

Now he is still on his way to Gengjin City, which is indeed not a good time to use the summoning card.

"Something must have happened in Butian Pavilion."

After Ye Ling pondered for a moment, he had a rough guess in his mind.

On the way to Gengjin City, apart from meeting Zhu Zhuqing, nothing else happened.

Then only something happened at the Butian Pavilion headquarters, which led to the completion of the mission.

However, considering the purpose of expanding influence, what happened should not be a bad thing.

In addition to this, a second task was triggered.

"Subdue the master craftsman Lou Gao?"

Ye Ling sneered.

Even Tang San could fool Lou Gao with the blueprints of hidden weapons.

Ye Ling, who masters cutting-edge technology, has ten thousand ways to make Lou Gao obediently join his Butian Pavilion.

Although the reward of the complete collection of soul techniques is of no use to Ye Ling at this stage.

But it is indeed a good choice to use it to trick the ferocious beasts and the Silver Dragon King in the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Ye Ling, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at Ye Ling standing there in a daze, Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment and then gently pushed him.

"oh?"

Ye Ling came back to his senses and smiled.

"It's okay. I just suddenly remembered something and was lost in thought."

At this moment, Tai Tan outside the carriage also shouted.

"Young Pavilion Master, we have arrived at Gengjin City."

Ye Ling also hurriedly got off the carriage.

The silver-gray color of Gengjin City, like a city wall made of metal, is now within reach.

Although we haven't entered the city yet, the gray fog in the sky and the strange smell in the air all show that this city is different.

"We're finally there!"

Ye Ling stretched comfortably, and the bones in his body made intensive noises in coordination.

It's not that the Li clan's carriage is uncomfortable to sit in, but sitting in a carriage for more than ten days in a row would be unbearable for anyone.

If Zhu Zhuqing hadn't been in the car to keep him entertained, he would have asked Kong Deming to use his soul guide to take him directly through space.

"Is this Gengjin City?"

Zhu Zhuqing also got off the carriage and was amazed at the unique city in front of her.

"Although this Gengjin City is a city of the Xingluo Empire, it has a strong degree of autonomy due to the existence of the Blacksmith Association."

Tai Tan also introduced the appearance of Gengjin City to several people with great interest.

"There are thousands of blacksmith shops in the entire city, and there are even more than 10,000 people working in the blacksmith industry."

"Moreover, more than 70% of the precious metals on the continent come from Gengjin City. It can be said that the entire Gengjin City is a paradise for blacksmiths."

Ye Ling nodded slightly and walked towards the city gate while listening to Tai Tan's introduction.

"Two carriages need to pay 4 gold soul coins to enter the city. Fourteen people need to pay 14 silver soul coins."

"A total of five gold soul coins and four silver soul coins are required."

As soon as the group arrived at the gate, they were stopped by the people guarding the city.

These people were not taxi drivers from the Xing Luo Empire, but they openly collected tolls at the door.

"What's going on? When did Gengjin City start charging these entrance fees?"

Tai Tan, who knew Gengjin City best, frowned and asked.

As a free trade city, Gengjin City has never charged any entrance fee except for the taxes paid to the Xingluo Empire.

"It was not charged before, and it is charged now."

The guard looked Ye Ling and his group up and down, his gaze lingered on Zhu Zhuqing for a while before he spoke.

"Without this entrance fee, don't even think about entering Gengjin City!"

"It's no problem to pay the money, but you have to give us an explanation, right?"

Seeing that Ye Ling and Kong Deming did not express any opinion, Tai Tan had to suppress his anger and continued to ask.

"Humph, this money will naturally be given to our Spirit Hall!"

The guard had a sneer on his face.

"If it weren't for the existence of our Spirit Hall, how could Gengjin City have such an independent status in the Xingluo Empire?"

"If you are honest, hurry up and pay the entrance fee. Otherwise, the soul masters of our Spirit Hall are not as easy to talk to as I am."

Anger flashed across Tai Tan's face, and he was about to explode.

"Give him the entrance fee."

Ye Ling's voice instantly shut down the Tai Tan.

"Master...Master, I..."

Tai Tan subconsciously wanted to say Young Pavilion Master, but after noticing the guard's expression, he quickly changed his words.

"Just give him."

Ye Ling said expressionlessly.

"Yes, Master."

Tai Tan nodded, and reluctantly threw four gold soul coins and one silver soul coin at the guard.

"Hey, you guys are smart."

The guard smiled with satisfaction, picked up the gold soul coin, weighed it, and then spoke.

"Let him go!"

After paying the money, Ye Ling and his group finally entered Gengjin City.

"Senior Tai Tan, if they accept the money, it will be difficult for them to return it later."

Ye Ling looked at Tai Tan who was still a little angry, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend into a strange arc.
