Chapter 1560: Current Situation
By the time she turned back to where Bai Xia was, the trio had already collected everything and stood back up.
When they saw her coming over, the three of them nodded toward her gratefully. "Little Miss, fortunately, you were here to allay our pressing crisis."
Thinking back on it now, this little great aunt's methods were truly swift and fierce.
She first shot through several zombies to intimidate everyone, and then she started attacking the spectators.
By using some kind of method, she actually made the spectators start killing each other in chaos.
The trio's gazes settled on that soft and adorable white snakelet on the little lady's shoulder.
Just now, they had clearly watched how this white snakelet transformed into a serpent that blocked out the sky. It was simply poles apart from its present adorable appearance.
Qiao Mu did not say any more, and she simply reached out to pick up the middle-aged man who was gasping his last.
As this person had suffered from a serious injury to his conscious pool, he was merely one breath away from becoming a corpse. His gaze toward Qiao Mu was filled with horror.
"To be able to set up a restriction at the entrance of the passageway between the Lower Star Domains and Shuntian Prefecture, you should have some connections." Qiao Mu asked with knitted brows, "Speak, what is your relation to Shuntian Prefecture's Prefecture Lord."
Fresh blood dribbled out from the corner of the middle-aged man's mouth. From the looks of it, he was exhaling more than he was inhaling. He wouldn't be hanging on for much longer.
Qiao Mu didn't really want to find out who had given the middle-aged man this authority so that he could erect an arena here.
Afterall, in the entire Shuntian Prefecture, besides the Prefecture Lord, those with the greatest authority were the people beside the Prefecture Lord.
She reckoned that the person who thought up this malevolent way to earn money from tickets must be sinister and vicious. No matter what, there was no way the person was unrelated to Shuntian Prefecture's Prefecture Lord.
Just think about it. That middle-aged man had earned three hundred thousand spirit currency just from the ticket fees. No wonder they would continue to operate this profitable business.
It was said that the Six Prefectures Continent was several dozen times bigger than the Sikong Planet Continent. However, it did not have the luxuriant foliage of Sikong Planet.
Furthermore, there was a great distance between each of the Six Prefectures.
There also weren't many livable cities in each of the Prefectures, not to mention the fact that the number of spiritual grounds used for cultivation could be counted on one hand.
Shuntian Prefecture's population was greater than Sikong Planet's by more than a hundred times. However, the number of usable cities was about the same as Sikong Planet's.
That was why each city was basically packed to bursting.
Needless to say, Shuntian Prefecture's capital city was packed, as well.
"The distance between cities is extremely great."
"I heard a senior say that we must arrive at the nearest city, Julu City, before dusk. Otherwise, we might encounter who knows what kind of danger outside the city after dusk."
"A senior?"
"Mhm, some seniors from our Siyuan Planet who have been to Shuntian Prefecture before had given this reminder."
Qiao Mu nodded.
"Normally, the fee to enter Julu City is one mid-grade spirit currency." When Miss Bai Xia said this, she gazed at Qiao Mu complicatedly.
This little lady had fleeced many mid-grade spirit currency from the middle-aged man's body and had already jumped into the ranks of veritable nouveau riches.
She naturally would not care about a lousy spirit currency.
"There is no need for newcomers to be nervous even if they have no spirit currency. At the entrance of Julu City, one hundred mid-grade mystic currency can be exchanged for one mid-grade spirit currency." From the looks of it, Bai Xia was more aware of the quoted prices than her. They all jumped down the stage as Bai Xia tried to engage her in small talk.
"What relation do you have to those people hanging on the railing?"
"We do not know each other."
