Chapter 636 - 195: [Return to the Domain Realm] (6100)_4
Chen Yan smiled and said nothing.
This kind of polite talk is just for listening. Honestly, at that prior "joining," everyone was basically strangers. After a round of drinks, I couldn’t even match the names and faces of dozens of brothers; where would such a camaraderie come from?
Chen Yan asked Ruyi, the proprietress, to open a room for him, explaining that he would only stay for one night.
Ruyi was somewhat surprised upon hearing this: "Only staying one night? Brother Jin Jia sent a message a few days ago saying his business was done and he’d be back soon, probably just in these few days. Aren’t you going to wait here to see him?"
What’s there to meet for?
Chen Yan sighed in his heart.
When we meet, should I call him brother or uncle?
"It’s fine. I’m going out of the pass this time to hunt, make some money, and meet Brother Jin Jia after I come back."
Chen Yan’s answer made Ruyi laugh, her eyes teasing: "Chuyi, are you short on money?"
"No choice, it’s a poor life. Without going out to fight, where would I get money for cultivation resources?" Chen Yan waved his hand.
Ruyi didn’t ask further questions. She opened a guest room for Chen Yan and provided him with the latest intelligence.
"The reward issued by the Town General a few days ago has been raised again! Now the heads of those Fierce Beast Race creatures are worth more than before! If you’re looking to make money, you really need to seize the current opportunity.
The fighting is intense now, but there’ll ultimately be a ceasefire. The bounty might disappear at any moment.
Later, go to the Commander’s Mansion to collect the reward document, sign the contract, and then you can go hunting after leaving the pass.
That way, even if the bounty is canceled by the time you return, you can claim the heads according to the bounty price with the contract."
"Thanks for the heads-up, sister-in-law!"
Calling Ruyi sister-in-law made her beam immediately. She glanced at Chen Yan and laughed, saying, "No wonder, with so many brothers in the Brotherhood, I find you the most pleasing to the eye and articulate!"
As she spoke, she walked behind the counter, and after feeling around, she took out a porcelain bottle and placed it on the table.
"This bottle of Fasting Pills is for you. It’s hard work hunting outside the pass. If you venture into the forest near Evil Land Mountain, you can’t carry storage gear; even eating is difficult! Last time was a rush, and I didn’t give you a meeting gift, so let this bottle of Fasting Pills make up for it."
Chen Yan smiled, took it with both hands, and politely expressed his gratitude.
He then returned to his room, rested for a while, went out to have a meal in the evening, and inevitably drank several jars of wine with a group of unfamiliar brothers.
But those brothers were not for nothing, nor was the wine.
A guy, who might be Brother Seventy-Six yet actually Brother Seventy-Eight, gave Chen Yan a map, reportedly drawn by himself through years of hunting outside the pass and traveling around.
It’s more detailed compared to the maps sold in shops near Evil Land Mountain outside the pass!
The next day, after getting up, Chen Yan bid farewell to Ruyi the proprietress and the dozens of brothers in the shop, and left the pass!
All the way west!
·
The wind and snow outside the pass blew against his face, yet Chen Yan’s heart burned as if he had drunk strong liquor!
After so long, he returned to the Domain Realm fully prepared!
This time, his purpose was very simple: to make money!!
Compared to the real world, the greatest advantage of the Domain Realm is having a variety of cultivation resources, elixirs, and equipment...
These things are unattainable in the real world, but here, in the shops inside Snow Cliff Pass, they are for sale.
Currently, what he lacks is nothing but money.
Before coming, he had already made plans and preparations.
As an outsider wanting to earn money in the Domain Realm, he can’t wander around aimlessly like a headless fly.
And the most practical, accessible way to make money before him was just one:
Hunt the Fierce Beast Race and exchange their heads for the bounty!
Only with this method could he quickly accumulate a sum of money.
