"What if this is not the case and Token Of Fate doesn't appear in the Silver Mist City?"
Hearing this, Qin Wentian frowned, but after a moment, he smiled once again.
"Don't doubt my Master's ability. He even prophesied Emperor Ye's rise to the throne and his conquest for the Middle Heavens."
"And in this generation, he made the prophecy about Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun's conquest to become the Heavenly Emperor."
"Now, he has divined this prophecy; how could this not be true!"
"And considering the fact that he personally told me about the Silver Mist City, I am sure he changed the prophecy a bit and omitted a small part of it before telling it to everyone in the sect."
Ji Yi nodded, "This should be the most probable case."
Qin Wentian smiled, "Indeed. And once I get the Token Of Fate, both of our futures will take a turn for the better."
Ji Yi's lips curled into a sweet smile, "Yes, Senior Brother."
Qin Wentian added, "Token Of Fate will bring boundless opportunities for both of us, so just be prepared for a bloodbath in the next few days."
Ji Yi shook her head, "Senior Brother, with our cultivation, I don't think there will be many cultivators who can stop us in that city. Not to forget that we're also going to arrange a whole array system throughout the city."
Qin Wentian nodded, "Yes. The array system is the reason we are rushing to Silver Mist City. We will start working on it tonight. Master gave me a week, but we will get there at least two days earlier."
"Coincidentally, I have an acquaintance in this city. I have already informed him about our arrival, he is making arrangements for us as I speak."
…
Silver Mist City.
A small city in the Southern Province of the Xin Kingdom was home to many families.
The name, Silver Mist, is mainly derived from the mystic scenery that is the trademark of this city.
Silver Mist City is located behind a mountain called Silver Mist Mountain.
According to old stories, once upon a time, two great experts fought a battle to the death on this mountain.
The battle was so devastating that it led to them breaking the mountain into two.
That incident created a plateau, and on that part is where the Silver Mist City is located.
A huge pit formed by the battle is now filled with flora and fauna, and its cold temperature led to the formation of silvery mist all year round.
Thus, giving the city its unique name.
[A/n: City art here is in paragraph comment or chapter comment.]
The city was filled with many markets, and the majority of these markets were under the control of three clans. While the three clans were the most powerful in Silver Mist City, other big shops were also.
These three clans were the Zheng Clan, Ao Ba Clan, and Jia Lie Clan.
The three great clans of Silver Mist City had a strange relationship, each wanting to consume the other two's businesses, but none dared to act out against the other clan, fearing the left-out neutral clan would gain from them doing so. Moreover, even if the two of them joined hands, they could not avoid suspecting their 'partner'. Thus, unless they were assured of completely wiping out one party, all three sides could only continue in this complicated and brittle stalemate that had formed between them.
This simple yet complicated city was also one of the resting stations for caravans and traders.
Thus, allowing the whole city to become prosperous with a flushing economy.
However, the hidden schemes and undercurrents were always going on through the city, as the three main clans of the city fought for hegemony over the city.
These days were also pretty simple ones. Just this time, however, the three clans were about to go all out against each other.
By coincidence or by fate, all three of them had found a powerful ally and were going to ask for help from these allies to get rid of the other two clans.
As the days approached closer, the higher-ups of these clans were sharpening the weapons. Because, in a few days, an all-out war was about to begin.
…
Jia Lie Clan.
This clan was one of the three main clans and also the most powerful among the three.
Unfortunately, it didn't have absolute power and was afraid of the two enemies' clans forming an alliance to eradicate them, thus didn't try to instigate too much trouble.
But a few days ago, some people arrived in their clan.
The normal clansmen didn't know who they were, but one thing did shock them - their Clan Head was treating them as if they were literal gods.
He even ordered the guards to kill anyone who dared even to disturb the guests.
This made the atmosphere of the clan quite solemn.
In the main hall of the clan, Clan Head Jia Lie Shan was sitting quietly.
However, if anyone from the Silver Mist City were to see this simple scene, they would be shocked to the core because the Jia Lie Shan was not sitting on the clan head seat but rather on one of the side seats!
Moreover, every now and then, he was glancing at the person sitting on his seat, and beads of sweat slipped on his forehead.
After a long uncomfortable silence, the person sitting on the main seat asked, "What is it, Junior Brother Shan? You're staring at me as if I fucked your daughter. Don't worry, I just glanced at her."
Jian Lei Shan suppressed his emotions and said, "Senior Brother, everything here belongs to you. I just want to know what is going on? You have come unannounced, and you're not even letting me serve you properly."
The man sitting on the seat laughed, "You will know pretty soon, Junior Brother.. This whole mountain is soon going to need a new name."
