Celestial 'War God' Return

Chapter 348 348: Yuanxi Hall

Tang Xiao and the three women had arrived at the restaurant.

They ordered some dishes while asking the male waiter about where to find information in the capital.

From the male waiter's explanation, Tang Xiao learned about a place called Yuanxi Hall, where he could find all the information he needed.

"This kingdom capital city is almost no different from Earth II, but it's much grander and more bustling." Tantai Lingyan spoke while looking out the window.

Mu Qingge also looked at the street below. "There are many more cultivators with cultivation at the Tyrant Level here than on Earth II, so we must always be alert and careful."

"Are we going to stay in this capital, Xiao'er?" Tang Yin asked.

"I haven't decided yet." Tang Xiao looked off into the distance, specifically at the location of Yuanxi Hall. "We'll go there first to gather all the information we need, and I'll make a decision after we discuss it with the others. This capital is too dense with people, and many strong cultivators gather here. I don't have a problem with that, but I think it's too risky for our people."

Tang Yin understood this situation because not all members of the four clans had high cultivation levels; many only possessed foundation-level cultivation.

"Are we really going to join a sect, Xiao'er? Aren't I too old for that?"

"Hehe," Tang Yin chuckled. "Big Sis Lingyan, only fools think you are old! Look at you, your face still looks young, your boobs are bigger than papayas, and your body is also this sexy."

Tantai Lingyan glared at her as she glanced at Tang Xiao. "Why are you smiling to yourself? You've seen my boobs since childhood, remember? Do you want to see them again?"

"Sister Lingyan, we are in a public place, remember?" Mu Qingge reminded her.

Tantai Lingyan glanced at the restaurant guests, and most of the men glanced at her because of her huge boobs.

Tang Xiao smiled and shook his head. "Even though we have plenty of resources, I'll still join a sect in this realm to gain experience in the real world of cultivation. After all, it will be difficult for us to develop without sufficient experience, right? As for you, you don't need to join a sect if you're not interested in joining one, and you can cultivate in our residence later."

"Sigh." Tantai Lingyan supported her chin, looking outside. "I will think about it first, and I will make a decision after we get a lot of information about this realm, especially this kingdom and the other two."

"Are you planning to go to the Empire Capital?"

Tang Xiao thought for a moment before nodding to Mu Qingge. "If we can't find a suitable residence in one of the three kingdoms, I might go check out the Imperial Capital. However, the cultivators there are much stronger than those in the three kingdoms, so we'll face a complicated situation if we stay there."

Tang Yin, Mu Qingge, and Tantai Lingyan agreed. They had no problem living anywhere, but they had to think about their clansmen, especially those who didn't have high cultivation levels.

Sometime later, Tang Xiao and the three women were already in the Yuanxi Hall, meeting the female officer on duty in the middle of the room.

"Welcome to the Yuanxi Hall! Is there anything I can help you with?"

"We want to learn general information about the empire, the three kingdoms, and sects. Can you help us with that, Miss?"

The woman nodded slightly. "Does that mean you guys just arrived in this realm?"

"We just arrived from the Qingquan Realm, Miss."

"Oh! Qingquan Realm! That realm is much smaller than this Canglan Realm, and many residents from that realm come here to join sects because there are no sects there."

"That's right." Tang Xiao nodded. "We plan to move to this realm, so we need general information about it, especially this island."

The woman pointed to a room in the back. "You guys can go to that room, and one of our officers will meet with you to explain everything."

"How much should we pay for all that information, Miss?"

"The fee depends on the information you need, and our officers will determine the cost after everything is complete."

"Thank you, Miss."

Tang Xiao immediately led the three women into the room, and the woman looked at them as she contacted someone to meet them.

After waiting a few minutes, an old man walked into the room and sat down in front of them, examining their cultivation one by one. He could tell that the three women were Tang Xiao's women because he detected traces of their yin qi within his body, but he wasn't interested in their relationship.

Xiao Ai informed Tang Xiao that the old man's cultivation had already reached the Middle Tyrant Level, one level above Tantai Lingyan's.

"What kind of information do you need, Young Man?"

"First, we need information about this empire and the three kingdoms. Second, we need information about all the sects on this island. Third, we are looking for a quiet location for our new residence."

The old man stroked his long beard as he began to explain. "Our Empire is the Xuanyuan Empire, led by Emperor Xuanyuan Lingtian and Empress Jiang Fenghua, but I can't tell you too much about them. The Xuanyuan Clan has ruled the empire for three generations, and every emperor is wise, including the current one. All the cultivators on this island hold them in high regard and admiration, particularly due to their consistent fair and impartial rule."

Tang Xiao wanted to ask more about the Xuanyuan Clan and Emperor Xuanyuan Lingtian, but the old man stopped him with a shake of his head. "What about the three kingdoms?"

"As you probably already know, this Song Kingdom is ruled by King Song Zhentian and Queen Shangguan Qingyin. They are wise and fair leaders, but they are still no match for Emperor Xuanyuan and Empress Jiang in both cultivation and the way of ruling." Tang Xiao nodded in understanding. "They have two sons, Prince Song Tianzun and Prince Song Tianlin. The first prince has a character like his father, but the second prince has a disobedient and troublesome character."

"Is it okay if you tell us information about them, Senior?"

"Haha," The old man laughed in response to Mu Qingge's question. "Everyone in this kingdom already knows about them, and King Song never forbade us from telling others about their general information, but I can't tell you about their private information."

"Senior, what do you mean by Prince Song Tianlin's character being disobedient and troublesome?" Tang Yin asked.

"Haish," The old man sighed helplessly. "Little girl, the second prince doesn't like being controlled, and he prefers a free and unfettered life, which goes against the royal character. Besides, he is a womanizer, and he often takes women by force to serve him. You three have beautiful faces and are still young, so you guys should be careful if you meet him one day."

"What about the first prince, Senior?"

The old man wore a proud look when Tantai Lingyan asked that. "The first prince's character is the opposite of his little brother's, and he is very talented in the arts, especially painting. He never differentiates people by their status, and he treats everyone well, even beggars. Everyone in this kingdom hopes he will succeed his father when he abdicates, and we believe that this kingdom will become even better under his leadership."

"What about the other two kingdoms, Senior?"

"The other two kingdoms are the Taixu Kingdom and the Shenwu Kingdom." The old man's expression turned serious. "Young man, you have to be careful of the people from the Shenwu Kingdom."

"What's wrong with the Shenwu Kingdom, Senior?"

The old man took out a map and spread it out on the table. "The Shenwu Kingdom is south of this island, very close to the barren southernmost island. That island is a den of demons, and rumors have it that King Shenwu Huxiao has ties to them. I don't know the truth, but rumors say that Queen Gu Qianying is a female demon. Emperor Xuanyuan has tried to investigate the rumors, but he still hasn't succeeded in uncovering the truth."

"Demons, huh?" Tang Xiao muttered while frowning. "How strong are they, Seniors?"

"King Shenwu and Queen Gu's cultivation has reached the Peak Tyrant Level. They have two children, Prince Shenwu Yufeng and Princess Shenwu Meihua, but I don't have clear information about their cultivation. If you encounter people from the Shenwu Kingdom, you must be wary of them, or you will suffer."

"Thank you for your warning, Senior."

"Then, what about the third kingdom?"

"The Taixu Kingdom is the second-largest kingdom on this island, led by King Taixu Wudie and Queen Situ Lingshan. They have a son named Taixu Wuxian, who is a best friend of Prince Song Tianzun. I can't tell you too much about them, so this is all I can tell you. If you're interested in alchemy, you should go there and join the Lingdan Pavilion."

"The Lingdan Pavilion?"

The old man nodded. "The Lingdan Pavilion is one of the three sects in the Taixu Kingdom. It's a universal sect, but they excel in alchemy, and they have shops on all the islands, except the Shenwu Kingdom."

"Are you interested in alchemy, Xiao'er?"

Tang Xiao shook his head at Tang Yin. "I'm not interested in alchemy, but I am interested in their concocted pills, so we'll visit their shop in this kingdom after this. Then, what are the other two sects in the Taixu Kingdom, Senior? How many sects are there in this Song Kingdom?"
