Chapter 13: Magnificent, reaching Tiandou City! The eastern sun slowly set from the vast sky. Facing the afterglow of the setting sun, the carriage galloped towards the road ahead at lightning speed. Although the carriage was moving at an extremely fast speed, the coachman, with his extremely superb skills in controlling the carriage, was able to control the carriage at lightning speed. The coachman held the reins tightly with both hands, his expression was extremely calm, as if no matter how fast the carriage increased, even if it was faster, he could handle it calmly and easily. "Sir, are you satisfied with our speed? We are less than ten miles away from Tiandou City. It won't take long for us to arrive in Tiandou City smoothly!" The coachman said cheerfully to the carriage with a smile on his face. In the carriage, Lin Xiao gently stroked the black dragon that was sleeping above his head. Flying day and night at high intensity was too much for the black dragon's body to bear and it would feel tired even if it was made of steel. Since getting on the carriage, the Black Dragon coiled up his body, quietly lying on his head, and fell into a deep sleep. Although the ride in the carriage was inevitably bumpy, it did not affect the Black Dragon's sleep quality at all. Lin Xiao kept silent and listened carefully, he could even hear the Black Dragon's breathing very clearly. It was a faint snoring sound that continued to echo in his ears. "Yes, the speed is indeed very fast, but this carriage is indeed a bit simple. However, it doesn't matter. As long as we can successfully arrive at Tiandou City before the sun sets, you will naturally not be short of these gold soul coins." Lin Xiao's face was cold, and he quietly watched the scene outside the car window that kept changing like a kaleidoscope, and said calmly. "Sir, just relax and leave the rest to me. I will definitely be able to send you to Tiandou City before the sun sets completely! But what you said is also correct."
"Although my carriage is the fastest in our area, its overall quality and comfort level cannot be called good. When I save enough money, I will definitely buy a comfortable carriage." The coachman said with a cheerful smile. The sun gradually set, and just before it set, the groom successfully sent Lin Xiao to the gate of Tiandou City. For this extremely experienced groom with a fine horse, it would undoubtedly be the greatest insult to him if he failed to send Lin Xiao to Tiandou City before the sun set. The walls of Tiandou City are majestic and tall, made of hard stones carefully piled up. The city gate is extremely wide, far beyond imagination. It is so wide that it can even accommodate several carriages to pass through smoothly without any hindrance. The carriage stopped steadily not far from the Tiandou City Gate. Lin Xiao slowly walked out of the carriage, and then handed the gold soul coin to the coachman, smiling and saying, "Send me to Tiandou City before sunset, 500 miles away, this is the gold soul coin you deserve!" The groom carefully took the gold soul coin with trembling hands, held it in his hands, looked at Lin Xiao with burning eyes, and asked with a trembling voice: "Sir, this journey is only ten silver soul coins. Do you really want to give me the gold soul coins?" The Golden Soul Coin is the most advanced currency among all currencies. Just one coin is enough to support all expenses of an ordinary family of three for half a year! According to their market conditions, the reward that the grooms can get for each trip is only ten silver soul coins for each trip of 500 miles. If they want to save up enough gold soul coins, they need ten trips of 500 miles. When the grooms saw Lin Xiao directly took out the gold soul coins, how could he remain calm when he knew the market conditions well? Seeing the coachman's sincerity, Lin Xiao smiled faintly and said, "This is what you deserve. If I take someone else's carriage, I'm afraid I won't be able to get to Tiandou City before the sun sets today!" "Besides, didn't you say that you would buy a better carriage when you have enough money? I think this gold soul coin of mine can be used as money to buy the carriage. Sitting in this carriage for a long time will hurt your butt." "Thank you, sir!" The coachman held the gold soul coins in both hands and said gratefully. Lin Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head. His expression returned to its cold and calm state. He turned and left without making any response, and walked straight towards the gate of Tiandou City. In front of the towering and majestic Tiandou City gate, there stood dozens of soldiers wearing solid silver armor, holding extremely sharp silver spears tightly in their hands. Every soldier looked extremely solemn and serious, and they were carefully checking the bustling crowds that were about to enter Tiandou City. Lin Xiao stopped, put his hands behind his back, slowly raised his head, and stared at the Tiandou City standing in front of him. Although his expression was cold and indifferent, a faint wave had been stirred deep in his heart. Lin Xiao couldn't help but sighed: "It is worthy of being the capital of the Tiandou Empire. Its magnificent scenery is not inferior to the Wuhun City of our Wuhun Hall!" "Tiandou City, as the capital of the Tiandou Empire, carries a long history. It is also the safest place in the Tiandou Empire. As a prosperous place and the richest place, it is not surprising that it is no worse than the Spirit Hall." There are three most prosperous places in Douluo Continent, namely, Tiandou City of Tiandou Empire, Xingluo City of Xingluo Empire, and finally Wuhun City of Wuhun Hall! Compared with the villages Lin Xiao encountered when passing through the border of the Tiandou Empire, the prosperity of the three places is like the gap between two eras, or even multiple eras. It is extremely obvious! If the villagers living in the border villages suddenly came to Tiandou City, they would definitely feel as if they were in a different world, and they would even wonder with doubts whether they had stepped into a completely different world for some reason? The sun completely set in the west, the sky gradually darkened, night began to fall, and darkness gradually enveloped the earth. The soldiers in front of the Tiandou City gate watched the sun sink completely in the west. Night began to fall. The leading soldier walked up to the people who had not yet entered Tiandou City and shouted at the top of his voice: "The sun has set and the city gates are about to close. Those who have not yet entered Tiandou City can stay in a hotel near Tiandou City for one night and come back tomorrow!" Those who had not had time to enter Tiandou City were filled with disappointment, but they could only leave helplessly. All the soldiers withdrew back to Tiandou City, and the huge city gate was slowly beginning to close.
