Chapter 3742 Underground Market
Alastair asked, “How peculiar. Could it be possible that you passed Lunarius Palace’s illusion array?”
Kai answered honestly, “Of course. I even passed Lunarius Palace’s test. The day after tomorrow, I’ll be heading to the polar region. That’s why I specifically came to Pathfinder Sect to pick up a few items.”
With a sense of regret, Alastair exclaimed, “Why did you shop at Pathfinder Sect? It’s so expensive. Why didn’t you consider going to the underground market instead?”
“An underground market?” Kai was taken aback.
He had no idea there was an underground market in Southedge City.
“Exactly. The items in this underground market may be disorganized, but you can still find some gems. The best part is the affordability and the chance to haggle. Only the information sold by Pathfinder Sect is somewhat reliable. Everything else is subpar.” It appeared that Alastair wasn’t particularly fond of
Pathfinder Sect.
“Where is this underground market located?” Kai , who was initially about to leave, suddenly became interested. If I can find some good stuff there, that’d be great.
Alastair cast a glance at Kai , stroking his beard thoughtfully. His intentions were clear as day.
Kai didn’t hesitate at all. He immediately took out a purple spirit coin and tossed it to Alastair.
Alastair’s eyes lit up instantly as he hastily put away the purple spirit coin and said, “We’ve known each other for so long. There’s no need for such formalities. I’ll take you there. I know the place like the back of my hand. Besides, I have acquaintances there. It’s impossible to get in without knowing anyone
there.”
After Alastair finished speaking, he led Kai toward Southedge City.
Before long, Alastair led Kai to a small courtyard.
Surprisingly, within such a tiny courtyard, there were three Fifth Level Tribulators cultivators, and from the looks of it, those three were merely guards.
Upon seeing Alastair, a guard playfully remarked, “Alastair, you old brat. Are you here to swindle again?”
Alastair didn’t get angry. Instead, he chuckled and said, “I brought a guest with me today, a VIP no less. So, keep your eyes peeled. If you offend this VIP, it won’t end well for you.”
The three guards gave Kai a once-over and noted his cultivation level as a Third Level Tribulator. Kai looked rather ordinary, not at all like a scion of a wealthy family, which made them somewhat skeptical.
While those three guards were busy scrutinizing Kai , Kai nonchalantly tossed out three purple spirit coins.
“This is a reward for you all,” Kai said indifferently.
The three guards were left dumbfounded as they stared at the purple spirit coins in their hands.
After all, one purple spirit coin was worth a million ordinary spirit coins. The three guards were shocked to their cores. Who’s capable of giving such a generous reward? This must be a big client!
“Sir, please come in. We were ignorant before.” The three guards instantly started treating Kai with the utmost respect.
Alastair, however, said arrogantly, “I already told you this is a major client, but you all didn’t believe me.”
Alastair pushed the door open and stepped inside.
Kai followed suit, entering what appeared to be a rather ordinary room. It wasn’t particularly spacious and certainly didn’t look like any underground market.
Upon taking in Kai ‘s confusion, Alastair lightly stomped on the ground three times. The next second, a beam of light enveloped both Kai and Alastair.
Immediately after, a burst of brilliant light erupted, and Kai and his group astonishingly found themselves in a completely different space.
This place was bustling with quite a number of cultivators coming and going, making it incredibly lively.
Moreover, the place was just like a bustling market, with various stalls lining both sides.
“Pathfinder Sect is strict, prohibiting any private shopping districts. Therefore, this underground market could only exist within this designated space. We also have to stay vigilant against the Pathfinder Sect at all times,” Alastair said with a hint of helplessness.
Kai gazed at the bustling underground market and couldn’t help but admire the person behind its creation. That person actually managed to establish a whole new space just to host an underground market…
