Lord of All Gods

Chapter 1720: Chapter 1720 Hit The Jackpot

Actually, the moment Ye Liuyun returned to Li Laodie’s house, he was already being watched.

Those involved in the "drafting" were already quite experienced. For them, keeping watch was now a regular assignment.

Only, his and Li Laodie’s Divine Sense were relatively weak right now; they hadn’t noticed the other party.

Their conversation, on the other hand, had been clearly heard by the other side.

"Indeed, it’s a martial practitioner from the Mortal World!"

The moment they detected their martial practitioner using Divine Sense, they immediately used the Sound Transmission Talisman to report to the City Lord.

"Alright, please invite him back respectfully. Don’t give him a hard time!"

Upon receiving the message, the City Lord directly ordered his martial practitioners, even using the word "please".

The Tundraland where Ye Liuyun was located wasn’t big, with hundreds of small villages surrounding it, a mere drop in the ocean within the God Realm.

Every year, City Lord Li Yuanyang had a headache over how to select martial practitioners for the different-race battlefield.

His jurisdiction had fewer and fewer young men.

Wealthy forces would buy slaves to make up the numbers, while he couldn’t afford to offend the sons of big families.

As for the villagers, they had practically no combat experience. So even if these people were drafted, they’d just be sent to die. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

That’s why he especially liked martial practitioners from the Mortal Realm. The more that came from there, the better he could complete the tasks assigned to him from above.

Martial practitioners from the Mortal Realm had no roots and were urgently in need of cultivation resources. These people had a wealth of combat experience, and the martial practitioners who could pass his selection were mostly from the Mortal Realm.

Ye Liuyun practiced all night. Early the next morning, the people from the City Lord’s Mansion were already at his door waiting for him.

They knew that Ye Liuyun wanted to go to the City Lord’s Mansion on his own, so they did not rush him. They were extremely polite in their words and manner.

After saying goodbye to Li Xingnan and Li Laodie’s, Ye Liuyun followed these people and headed straight to the City Lord’s Mansion.

Only then did Ye Liuyun realize that there were quite a few villagers, who were also heading to the City Lord’s Mansion with him. Furthermore, many of them were bound. It seems they were forced to comply.

He was also puzzled about why these people were so polite to him and did not tie him up.

On the way, Ye Liuyun chatted with them casually, learning about the God Realm and the selection process for martial practitioners.

These people were also in a good mood. Bringing a mortal world’s martial practitioner back was considered a better report than bringing a hundred villagers. Moreover, Ye Liuyun voluntarily went with them, so they enjoyed chatting with him.

Ye Liuyun learned from them that the city election was only the first step. Once they arrived at Prince Liang’s Mansion, there would be another round of selection.

Actually, these selections were also good opportunities for them to enhance their skills and obtain resources.

However, these villagers did not have much combat experience, so going there was more likely suicide. Hence, the majority of them were reluctant to go.

But when it comes to the selection, there are superiors supervising. If the quantity is insufficient, it’s not acceptable either. So, they had no choice but to conscript some.

"Doesn’t the City Lord’s Mansion has a lot of martial practitioners too? Why not draw from there?" asked Ye Liuyun in puzzlement.

The leader of the guards, Li Manfu, sighed at Ye Liuyun’s question, "Why not? If we fail to complete the conscription assignment, we have to make up the numbers ourselves. But the City Lord’s Mansion is always recruiting, and its manpower is now cut to the point where it can’t be cut any further. There’s nothing left to draw from!"

Ye Liuyun understood after hearing this that it was just them passing down tasks one level at a time. freēwēbnovel.com

Then he asked Li Manfu, "Brother Li, will I be able to wander around once I arrive at the City Lord’s Mansion? I still want to drop by the commerce guild to do some shopping!"

Li Manfu said with some difficulty, "What do you want to buy? Usually, during the selection period, you’re not allowed to go out. However, the city lord’s mansion can help martial practitioners buy and sell resources on behalf. We absolutely won’t earn a single Alora Crystal from you, so you can rest assured about that."

"Well... I want to buy some pill formulas. If I don’t go by myself, I’m afraid others wouldn’t buy them properly!"

Ye Liuyun felt that such matters would indeed need him to go in person.

"Pill formulas? Can you refine pills?" Li Manfu immediately realized that he had found a treasure.

Ye Liuyun wasn’t sure if he could refine qualified pills at the moment, so he had to explain to Li Manfu, "I used to be able to refine pills. But I need to see the situation of the pill formulas and the grade of pills here to determine. So I have to go to the commerce association myself to look at the pills, choose some pill formulas, and see which ones are suitable. Also, I don’t have god crystals, only some feral beasts virtuoso that I get from hunting, so I don’t know what kind of pill formulae I can exchange for."

Ye Liuyun voiced all his concerns.

But he estimated that if he was given Immortal Level medicinal herbs, he should be able to refine Immortal Realm pills, depending on the specific pill formula.

Simple pill formulas should not be a problem. After all, his flame power was already strong enough.

"Your situation is a bit special. But if you can really refine pills, I think the City Lord shouldn’t refuse. Wait a moment, I will ask for you."

After Li Manfu found out that Ye Liuyun could refine pills, he did not dare to delay and immediately used the Sound Transmission Talisman to ask the City Lord.

Pill masters and weapon masters are treasures wherever they are. Even if Ye Liuyun’s pill refining skill was not enough, after some training, he could still become a pill master.

To the City Lord’s mansion, a pill master is a guarantee of income source and power enhancement.

Therefore, Li Yuanyang paid great attention to Ye Liuyun and agreed immediately.

"Of course there is no problem, you can agree to him directly. Moreover, I will even provide him with some resources needed for refining pills."

He was even so pleased that he rewarded Li Manfu, considering their team had completed the recruitment task for the year.

Now, it all depends on whether Ye Liuyun’s pill refining skills or strength level is higher to decide whether to send him to the battlefield or keep him for refining pills.

The entire guard squad was especially happy.

They didn’t expect that finding Ye Liuyun would complete the mission. They immediately released the other villagers on the spot.

Since one Ye Liuyun was enough, there was no need to capture so many.

This also shows that they were merely completing the mission. Their original intention was to avoid capturing people.

Ye Liuyun was also quite pleased, this could be considered as saving a few villagers. His impression of these guards improved slightly.

They walked and chatted. In a short while, they had entered Tundraland.

"What does the name mean?" Upon seeing the name of the city, Ye Liuyun thought of cultivation resources.

As expected, Li Manfu told him that 300 miles west of the city, there was an Ice Flow, a great resource for Power of Ice cultivation. However, this Ice Flow was controlled by a force called the Ice Palace and would not be easily opened to the public.

Ye Liuyun didn’t rush to go, he just remembered this information for future opportunities.

The Power of Ice was still abundant in Snow City, enough for the time being. What he urgently needed now were realm advancing resources like divine crystals.
