Chapter 1591: Chapter 1592: Money Above All Places
Because Ye Luo can even take in this small world in a single glance!
This is a shattered space, a realm composed of various fragments of continents pieced together. Even the Great Tang Empire, or any power from the Ninth Region of the Martial Realm, could scarcely accomplish such a feat. Clearly, this place likely comes from the hand of someone from a higher realm, although it’s unknown how it fell into the hands of these Commerce Alliance members.
As soon as Ye Luo appeared, several handsome youths and maidens immediately came to his side, respectfully kneeling before him: "Greetings, Master!"
Ye Luo frowned slightly, as he didn’t yet grasp the situation, but fortunately, a woman dressed in black had already come before him.
"Do not be disturbed, sir. You have now arrived in the Immortal Domain, and every esteemed person entering the Immortal Domain is the master here. Please see, the fragment of the continent where you now stand is your abode here. Of course, atop it are five hundred boys and girls, your personal property, a small token of goodwill from our Commerce Alliance to each guest. You may dispose of them as you wish."
The black-clad woman introduced everything to Ye Luo while handing him a bracelet.
"Sir, this bracelet contains all the information you need. Naturally, I am your exclusive attendant; you may seek me for any needs!"
"Oh, any needs, hmm?"
Ye Luo raised an eyebrow. Internally, he felt some aversion to this place, but he understood this was the Martial Realm, not Earth, so he shouldn’t look at the Martial Realm through the lens of Earth!
Having been in the Martial Realm for some time, Ye Luo often still harbors thoughts considered unusual by Martial Realm standards, yet he’s learned to conceal them!
The woman in black gave a soft smile and said gently: "Of course, as long as sir desires it, any request will be fulfilled by me. However, the stipulation is that it comes at a price. What is it, sir—is it that you’re hurriedly eager to test my skills?"
As she spoke, the woman in black even made teasing gestures toward Ye Luo.
Being a man, few couldn’t understand her intention!
Unfortunately, Ye Luo indeed had no interest in her.
For Ye Luo, this black-clad woman was likely merely a high-class handmaid cultivated by the Commerce Alliance!
Regarding such a woman, Ye Luo truly had no interest.
Yet, the slaves allocated to Ye Luo made him frown slightly.
Ye Luo had already seen that these five hundred boys and girls ranged in age from sixteen to twenty-four, and none had undergone cultivation!
Surely, these people were born in this small world, existing solely to serve guests like Ye Luo!
"Then, if I wanted your life, how much gold would it be worth?"
Ye Luo’s simple words left the black-clad woman unable to maintain her smile, standing there terrified, uncertain how to respond!
In this place, someone like Ye Luo, an immortal, reigns supreme. Inside, everyone exists to serve them. Although Ye Luo’s remark seemed in jest, should he genuinely desire this woman’s life, it could be taken for a price!
This was why the woman felt such fear.
Of course, Ye Luo wasn’t so idle as to be entertained by such notions. Casting a glance at the woman, he said indifferently: "Very well, show me around; I don’t wish for your life yet!"
Upon hearing this, the woman quickly forced a smile and eagerly led Ye Luo, introducing him to the place.
"Sir, have a look—this is the hunting grounds. If you fancy, you may hunt here!"
"Have a look over here, sir, this is the casino; should you wish to try your luck, you may do so at any time!"
"Sir, this is Yan Liu Alley. Inside, not only are there girls from the Human Race, but also young men and women from many races. Should you wish to try diverse flavors, everything is available here!"
"Sir, here is the slave market. Not only are there beautiful women and handsome men, but also strong individuals, Pill Masters, and all kinds of unique talents. You can rest assured that these slaves have been fully tamed and pose no trouble whatsoever!"
...
As they walked, introductions continued.
Yet, such details drew Ye Luo into a realm entirely different from any place he had seen on Earth or the Martial Realm.
Here lies a world under darkness, containing unimaginable darkness for ordinary people!
But this place bears a refreshing name—the Immortal Domain, the Immortal Banquet!
The Martial Realm inherently respects power, where the strong prey upon the weak, though the Great Tang Empire is comparatively better!
What Ye Luo saw in the Immortal Domain was merely the tip of the iceberg!
Ye Luo knew this well in his heart, so his face remained neutral and unaffected!
Some things, at least given Ye Luo’s current strength, cannot be changed; Ye Luo can only accept them.
The phrase "respect for power" implies the necessity for effort to avoid being trampled!
Innate talent is indeed important, but laziness is the true sin!
Aside from those with special bloodlines, physiques, or honored masters, how significant is the starting point for others? How can some forge ahead while others yield to being trampled?
Empathy ought to be reserved for the deserving and not showered upon all indiscriminately!
Being indiscriminately empathetic makes one a do-gooder!
Unconsciously, Ye Luo’s mindset underwent a subtle shift; this, of course, was a part of Ye Luo’s necessary growth!
Truth be told, Ye Luo’s heart remains a bit too soft, occasionally indecisive in matters of life and death.
But, after all, it is still Ye Luo; if he were to become a Demon King or a bully, would he still be Ye Luo?
With a sense of insight and wonder, Ye Luo casually strolled alone amidst the continental fragments!
Suddenly, there was a resounding crash, and a streak of light fell before Ye Luo!
Startled awake, Ye Luo focused his vision and saw a girl coughing blood continuously!
At that moment, from afar, a portly middle-aged man approached, surrounded by a group of people.
"Wretch, it’s your good fortune that this king fancies you. Hmph, what nonsense about performing without selling—having come to the Immortal Domain, you should know the rules. No matter what invitation you have, defying this king’s wishes means death!"
