Open up and break into another world

“The tea here is quite expensive! Even I can barely afford it!” Xu Ming said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

“Senior… Senior!” Pei Huan was startled and quickly admitted his mistake, “I'll change it right away! I'll change it right away!”

“Change it?” Xu Ming smiled and said, “Snakes have their paths, and rats have their ways; I'm too lazy to care about the affairs of your Sea Heaven City, so you don't need to change anything!”

Even if Pei Huan changed the rules of Sea Heaven City, what good would it do Xu Ming? Therefore, Xu Ming was genuinely too lazy to care.

However, Pei Huan wasn't sure what Xu Ming meant: “This…”

“If I tell you not to change it, then don't change it!” Xu Ming said casually.

“Yes! Yes!” Pei Huan didn't dare to say more.

“Actually, I deliberately made a bit of noise to lure you out because I have other things I want to ask you!” Xu Ming added.

Deliberately made a bit of noise?

Pei Huan wanted to cry a little—this lord, aren't you being too mischievous? If you have something you want to ask, you can just come and find me directly, why make such a big commotion!

However, Pei Huan certainly didn't dare to have any opinions about Xu Ming, but instead asked cautiously, “Senior, if you have any instructions, please feel free to speak!”

“Actually, it's nothing major, just a few things I want to ask you!” Xu Ming said, “I want to go to Thunder Continent, but the Asura Sea is vast, and I've never been out to sea before; so, I'd like to ask you about any precautions I should take!”

Pei Huan repeatedly waved his hands and said, “For you to say the words 'ask for guidance' is truly making me feel ashamed!—Senior, let's step aside to talk; I will definitely tell you everything I know without holding anything back!”

“Then I'll have to trouble you!” The reason Xu Ming came to Sea Heaven City was actually to learn about the situation in the Asura Sea; otherwise, Xu Ming wouldn't have come to Sea Heaven City at all, and could have just flown out to sea!

After all, with Xu Ming's strength, he didn't need to worry about encountering sea bandits or anything—Emperor-level experts wouldn't stoop to becoming sea bandits; and those willing to be sea bandits weren't strong enough to threaten Xu Ming.

“No trouble! No trouble!” Facing Xu Ming, this Emperor-level expert, Pei Huan naturally couldn't flatter him enough, so how could he find it troublesome? He bowed and made a "please" gesture, saying, “Senior, please!”

Xu Ming didn't stand on ceremony with him—in this world where strength is respected, Xu Ming's strength qualified him to enjoy such respect.

Just as Xu Ming was getting up to leave, Shi Qing suddenly stepped forward.

“Shi Qing, is there anything you need?” Xu Ming asked with a smile—he still had a good impression of Shi Qing! If Shi Qing needed something, Xu Ming wouldn't mind helping with a small favor.

“Senior!” Shi Qing cautiously transmitted his voice, “Are you going to Thunder Continent?”

“Yes!” Xu Ming replied with a smile, transmitting his voice as well, “Why, are you going too?”

“I'm not going to Thunder Continent.” Shi Qing continued, “I'm going to a sect called 'Cloud Dress Sect' in the Asura Sea, which is located near Thunder Continent…”

Xu Ming immediately understood—Shi Qing wanted him to take him along the way!

However, Xu Ming couldn't help but ask curiously, “Shi Qing, from here to the Cloud Dress Sect you mentioned, almost spans the entire Asura Sea! With your cultivation, why do you want to travel to such a distant place alone?”

The Asura Sea is vast and boundless. Within this vastness, countless dangers naturally lurk!

Even for a King-Sealing expert, crossing the Asura Sea alone is a rather dangerous thing; moreover, Shi Qing is only a Half-Step King-Sealing!—It's very likely that Shi Qing would die in the Asura Sea before even reaching the Cloud Dress Sect.

“I'm going to see a female cultivator!” Shi Qing said somewhat shyly, but his eyes sparkled with determination.

“Oh?” Xu Ming couldn't help but be taken aback, “How did you get to know someone from such a distant place?”

Shi Qing said in a low voice, “Void Sky World…”

“Oh!!” Xu Ming suddenly understood—Shi Qing met a "netizen" in the Void Sky World, and now he's going to meet this "female netizen"!

Shi Qing was of course very clear that with his strength, crossing the Asura Sea could be described as "nine deaths and one life." But now, with Xu Ming's help, it was different!

“You just follow me!” Xu Ming said.

“Yes!” Shi Qing obediently followed behind Xu Ming.

…

“Hmm?” The black-clothed youth “Luo Huan,” who had come to Sea Heaven City with Shi Qing, couldn't help but be slightly stunned, “I wonder what Shi Qing transmitted to this Senior; this Senior actually brought him along!”

A look of jealousy flashed in Luo Huan's eyes: “To be able to follow an Emperor-level expert, what kind of opportunity is that! Why did this kid get to encounter it?”

Luo Huan's jealousy burned brighter and brighter: “Putting aside everything else, let's just talk about the cost of going to sea!—Since Shi Qing is following the God Emperor, he will definitely be exempt from the so-called escort fee!”

For Luo Huan, this escort fee was not a small amount!

Suddenly, Luo Huan gritted his teeth and walked towards Xu Ming: “Senior! I was blind and offended you before! I…”

Xu Ming raised his hand, interrupting him, and said: “The cause and effect between you and me ends here!”

Xu Ming's implied meaning was—I won't hold your previous offense against you, but don't expect me to help you!

How could Luo Huan have imagined that Xu Ming would directly block his words as soon as he opened his mouth. However, Luo Huan was still unwilling and continued, “Senior, I wonder if you would allow me to follow you out to sea?”

This was Luo Huan's little plan—as long as he followed Xu Ming out to sea, the cost of going to sea would definitely be saved; perhaps, he might even have a chance to curry favor with Xu Ming.

However, Xu Ming refused directly with two simple words: “Cannot!”

“I…” Luo Huan's expression suddenly froze completely—deep in his eyes, there was both regret and jealousy! If he hadn't looked down on people back then, he might have been able to build some relationship with Xu Ming; but now, it was already too late!

“Regret!” Luo Huan knew that he had missed a very important opportunity on his path of cultivation.

Moreover, Luo Huan's talent was already average, and it was difficult for him to even step into the King-Sealing level; with his talent, missing this opportunity, his future path of cultivation would probably stop here, and it would be difficult to improve further!

…

“Senior?” Pei Huan walked beside Xu Ming with a bow and asked through voice transmission, “Should I waive the sea travel fee for that person just now?”

“No need!” Xu Ming said casually, “Just treat it as if I don't know him, and do whatever you would normally do!”

Poor Luo Huan, if only his attitude had been slightly better when facing Xu Ming before; then, he could have saved half a bottle of God Essence for the sea travel fee!—This fee was almost all the wealth of a Half-Step King-Sealing God!
