The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 533 - 530: Brother Jiang’s Other Identity
Surrounding her was a cacophony of voices.
When Xin Lin came to her senses, she was still clutching the Black Shining Token in her hand, and when she looked around, she found herself in a small place resembling a tavern.
Xin Lin’s arrival drew sidelong glances from some of the people around her.
"Tsk, a night wanderer. Looks like Purple Cloud City has gained another Great Spirit Master."
A few men and women dressed as Martial Artists glanced over at her, and Xin Lin also felt the presence of other Spiritual Power fluctuations nearby.
Like her, there were at least five or six others who had ventured out at night.
But that was about it.
The Black Brilliance Market is a truly strange place.
There are dozens of tables set up here.
Some people gathered in groups of threes and twos at different tables, either conversing or exchanging some information.
Xin Lin did not recognize anyone here.
Moreover, she keenly noticed that the cultivation levels of these people were not weak; at least, they were higher than those of people she had met before.
Only those above the Xuan Changer or Great Spirit Master level could enter the Black Brilliance Market.
So, this place can be said to be a melting pot of the strongest individuals from Purple Cloud City.
To avoid exposing herself, Xin Lin kept silent.
"Excuse me, my lord, may I know how to address you?"
Just when Xin Lin was prepared to solely observe and play dead, a warm and familiar voice from behind gave her a start.
Why is he here too?
Xin Lin looked back in surprise and saw Jiang Qing from the Purple Cloud Alchemy Hall standing behind her.
Jiang Qing tonight was slightly different from when she met him during the day; he was wearing a dark blue robe, and his usually meticulously combed hair was draped beside him, with black patterns that matched the color of the Black Brilliance Stone twisted around his lapel, seemingly symbolizing some mysterious existence.
Such a Jiang Qing lacked his usual approachable demeanor and instead carried an intimidating aura that sent shivers down one’s spine.
The reactions of the people beside her upon seeing Jiang Qing also changed; they had put away their earlier casual joking attitudes and became silent.
"Master Jiang."
The way people addressed him around her revealed Jiang Qing’s status and position.
Xin Lin, holding back from exclaiming "Brother Jiang," suddenly realized that what the Pride Corpse had said earlier had all come true.
Whether it’s Murong Ziyue or Jiang Qing, these people she considered friends all had another identity unknown to her.
After quickly gathering her emotions, Xin Lin spoke in a deep voice.
"Just call me ’Overlord’."
Overlord... Jiang Qing found this odd title somewhat surprising.
But being a tactful person, he did not inquire further.
After all, the other party was new here, and presumably strong.
"Lord Dominator, may I ask if you are here to buy or sell today?"
Jiang Qing, as the host of the Black Brilliance Market, was very amicable.
This "Lord Dominator" was not very talkative, and his strength and background were not clear, which made Jiang Qing pay extra attention to him.
"Just looking."
Xin Lin spoke as little as possible, deeply abiding by the principle that the more you say, the more mistakes you make.
Especially since she was completely unaware of the rules of the Black Brilliance Market.
"Master Jiang." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Jiang Qing wanted to probe further but was interrupted by a few others who had just entered the Black Brilliance Market.
Sikong Ran and Bai You, who wore a veil, appeared.
One Black Shining Token could bring another person inside, and after giving a token to Long Qingchen and Jin Chen, Sikong Ran brought Bai You to attend the Black Brilliance Market.
One of the major reasons the two of them were still lingering in Purple Cloud City was this Black Brilliance Market event.
