Chapter 2192: Zongkun Ascends! Lici Ventures into the Alien Realm

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

"Have we... arrived in another world?" Lan Wanyi surveyed her surroundings, asking somewhat uncertainly.

Wang Licui also stared wide-eyed, her innocent face full of suspicion.

Is this really what the fabled different world looks like?

She thought the legendary different world would be something entirely different, like the Demonic Realm. But this was not what she had imagined at all; it felt no different from the Human World at all~

As for why she and Lan Wanyi were here, that was a long story.

Lately, she, Lan Wanyi, and the Trashy Rat had been wandering in the void.

Although their Storage Space was stocked with plenty of food, these wandering days were still quite tormenting.

There was no way around it, although their cultivation base allowed them to survive in the void, they were far from being at ease.

The void surrounding the Realm of Ruin was particularly complex and chaotic.

Countless space vortexes were distributed haphazardly through this void, dragging fragments of broken mountains, meteors, and ancient relics through the air unpredictably.

Some of these moved as fast as lightning, their trajectories nearly impossible to discern with the naked eye. A moment’s inattention could get you hit.

As they flew, they had to watch out for the flying shrapnel and meteors, maintaining their distance from the space vortexes lest they got sucked in. It was a nerve-wracking experience.

Fortunately, although the environment of the Realm of Ruin was harsh, the main danger lay in the surroundings, and with vigilance, it was possible to avoid trouble and danger.

Later, they were lucky enough to find a stable space tunnel, transporting them to another dimension.

However, the situation here was entirely different from what they imagined, leaving them in a state of confusion, unable to react for a long time.

At this moment.

A white-clad girl riding a Level Three deer-shaped Spirit Beast happened to pass by, with the crisp sound of "da-da-da" echoing as the deer trotted.

Wang Licui snapped back to reality, quickly grabbing her reins and asking, "Sister, can you tell us where we are?"

"Here?" The white-clad girl wasn’t angry at being stopped, just a bit puzzled, "Isn’t this Xinze Town?"

"I’m asking for the full name, which country, which county... the more complete, the better," Wang Licui said, taking out a small bag of dried fruits from her storage ring and casually stuffing some into her hand.

The white-clad girl hesitated before accepting the dried fruits, tasting one and finding it quite delicious. Her expression relaxed immediately.

Though it was odd to get asked for directions like that, for the sake of the dried fruits, she sincerely replied, "If you want the full name, it’s Xinluo Immortal Dynasty, Haoran State, Yikang County, Changshou County, Dragon Lake Guard, Xinze Town."

"Xinluo Immortal Dynasty?" Wang Licui’s eyes widened.

"Yeah~ Our Xinluo Immortal Dynasty is among the top powers within the entire Tianrui Saint Dynasty range." The white-clad girl spoke with pride, then glanced suspiciously at Wang Licui’s expression, "How could you not know that? You’re not a spy from somewhere, are you?"

"No, we just wanted to leave an address for our family so they can send things to us," Lan Wanyi quickly explained.

In a few words, they managed to brush off the white-clad girl, and the two girls and a mouse bid her farewell before turning to sigh together.

"Oh no, oh no~ This so-called Tianrui Saint Dynasty isn’t even something I’ve heard of, how are we going to get back?" Wang Licui knitted her brows in worry.

"Only a country with a True Immortal Realm can be called an Immortal Dynasty, and this so-called Saint Dynasty sounds even more impressive than an Immortal Dynasty. It should be on the same level as the historical Divine Martial Dynasty." Lan Wanyi sighed as well, "The power level of this world seems quite strong. It might be tough for us here."

"Trash, trash!"

The Trashy Rat also knitted its brows.

All its hundreds, no, thousands of wives were still waiting for it in the Demonic Realm~ If it returned late, what if its wives ran off with other rats?

The mood suddenly became quite gloomy.

Amidst the sighing,

"Gurgle~"

Wang Licui’s stomach suddenly grumbled softly.

Rubbing her grumbling tummy, she pulled a bitter face, "Never mind, never mind~ I’m exhausted and thirsty right now; better find a place to indulge in a hearty meal and reward myself~"

Even though wandering in the void was uneventful, the mental exhaustion was inevitable.

Besides, they didn’t have much water on them, and soon ran out, largely relying on their robust constitutions. So now, they desperately needed to replenish their fluids.

On top of constantly eating reserve rations in the void, with no variety in flavor, she was about to vomit from it.

The two girls and a mouse immediately started searching through the streets and quickly found a place resembling a restaurant, and without hesitation, rushed inside.

"Owner, serve us your best food and wine," Wang Licui skillfully began ordering as soon as she entered.

The place was lavishly decorated, seemingly high-end. From her experience, such places usually had a wide variety of dishes, not necessarily the best in taste, but unlikely to be bad, generally avoiding pitfalls.

She generously ordered a plethora of exotic dishes and immediately began feasting with Lan Wanyi and the Trashy Rat.

The taste, clicking her tongue, was very different from Da Qian, the Immortal Dynasties, and the Demonic World, but it was quite flavorful.

Worth it!

This cross-dimensional journey had been so worthwhile~

Wang Licui and Lan Wanyi were both known as big eaters, and opening their stomachs to eat, they quickly consumed the store’s inventory.

After eating,

The shop owner, dripping with sweat, cautiously approached with the bill, "Dear customer, your total comes to one-hundred twenty-nine thousand three hundred and five Immortal Crystals..."

"Only over ten thousand Immortal Crystals? Not too much..." Wang Licui patted her belly, casually telling Lan Wanyi beside her, "Wan’er, you settle the bill first; I left half my money with the Team Leader Army’s poor brothers, and sent the other half back to my father."

This round got her five-tenths full, satisfying~~

"But Lici sis, I also sent mine back home." Lan Wanyi blinked, "My family is only a Third-Class Aristocratic Family, raising me wasn’t easy. Now that I’ve finally achieved something big and earned lots of money, I naturally need to repay them... Originally, we thought we’d be in the Devour Heaven Sacred Land for a long time, so there wasn’t much use for money there... Trashy Rat, you settle the bill."

"What? Trash, trash, trash!"

The Trashy Rat abruptly lifted its head, its tiny mouse face filled with shock.

I’m just a mouse, and I’m the one paying for the meal?

The two girls and a mouse glanced at each other silently; the air turned a bit quiet.

Seeing this scene, the shop owner was enraged, his face turning green.

You can dine and dash, but eating up the entire store’s ingredients is too much! How was he going to continue business?

Seeing the shop owner’s expression, Wang Licui wore a helpless look.

Alright!

Might as well pawn some treasures to settle the bill~

She really couldn’t bring herself to stiff such a "small business" shop, especially when their food was quite delicious.

She reached for her storage ring, preparing to take out some materials or Dragon Crystals to cover the meal. Though not much of the food reserves were left, she had stockpiled many good things over the years.

However, just as she was about to take something out, a voice came from the side.

"Put the meal on my tab."

Upon hearing this, a dandy-looking gentleman swaggered in.

His eyes discreetly glanced at the Jade Pendant on Wang Licui’s waist, and seeing Wang Licui looking over, he tidied his clothes and greeted her politely with a cupped-hand salute, "This humble one, Situ Xuejia, greets Miss Si."

"Fourth Miss? No, no, no, I’m the eldest miss." Wang Licui shook her head confusedly, "You’ve mistaken me for someone else."

"Uh... this humble one understands, it’s my mistake..." Situ Xuejia wiped a drop of cold sweat from his brow, "My apologies for my oversight, eldest miss, eldest miss."

"..." Wang Licui.
