The Glorious Summoner

The wind and rain enveloped Shangjing, causing the peach flowers along the eight-hundred-mile Qin an River to fall into the river, almost dyeing the river pink.

The 800-mile Qin an River flowed all the way to the East. After bypassing the North of Shangjing city like a moat, it went straight to the sea. More than 300 miles to the East of Shangjing city was the sea. It was also the Donggang District of Shangjing city. More than half of the various goods, money, and grains that were transported to Shangjing city from the South of the great Shang kingdom were transported by sea to the Donggang District and disembarked.

The prosperity of Donggang in Shangjing city was needless to say.

On Pier 7 of the East Port, a giant cruise ship with three huge chimneys and a length of nearly 200 meters slowly docked with the sound of its whistle.

As soon as the huge cruise ship docked, the passengers who had been on the cruise for more than half a month carried large and small bags of things and got off the ship in the drizzle.

For many people, Shangjing was a dream-like place.

This was the capital of the great Shang, the location of the dark War god sect’s imperial court in the Golden Moon continent. This was the most prosperous and largest city in the Golden Moon continent, with a permanent population of over ten million. It was as if as long as a person came here, he would be related to the countless wealth, reputation, status, prosperity, and those big shots who influenced the situation of all countries.

In Shangjing, countless people came here every day to mine for gold. Countless people were looking forward to soaring to the sky and shocking the world with a single feat.

little friend ping ‘an, the camp of the demonic religion’s adjudicator Army is at Fengyu mountain, North of Shangjing city. It’s still a long way from here to Fengyu mountain. I’d like to congratulate little friend ping’ an in advance for being able to make an adjudicator in the future and achieving great ambitions in Shangjing city. In the future, little friend, when you’re free, you can come to the Wanli bookstore on Shangjing city’s East Main Street to find me for tea, chess, and a game.

On the cruise ship, a gentlemanly old man wearing a top hat and gold-rimmed glasses and holding a cane in his hand was saying goodbye to Xia Pingan.

This old man was Xia Pingan’s ” roommate ” in the cabin on the cruise ship. Xia Pingan lived in an ordinary cabin for two on the cruise ship, and this old man was the other guest in the cabin.

The old man’s surname was Jing, and his name was Jing Yuxing. He was a native of Shangjing and opened a small bookstore there. Some time ago, the old man had gone to Jinzhou to visit friends. When he returned, he had taken this cruise ship and happened to share a room with Xia Pingan.

These days on the cruise ship, when the old man was bored, Xia Pingan would play chess and chat with him. Over the past half a month, they had gotten along very well.

thank you, elder Jing. When I’ve settled down, I’ll find some time to come and play chess with you, ” Xia Pingan said to the old man with a smile.

In Xia ping ‘an’s impression, although this old man opened a bookstore, he had an extraordinary way of talking and was very knowledgeable. In the past half a month, Xia ping’ an had learned a lot from just chatting with this old man.

“Hahaha, good, then it’s a deal!” Elder Jing smiled, but his expression became slightly more serious. He said earnestly, ” before we part, I have a word to say to you. Shangjing is one of the most prosperous places in the Golden Moon continent, but it is also one of the most dangerous places. This is your first time here, so even if you have ambitions, you must be careful. Do you know why the locals of Shangjing never eat the fish in the Qin an River? ”

“Why?”

Elder Jing pointed at Qin Anhe, who was not far away, and sighed. Qin Anhe cleans up every ten years or so. Every time he cleans up, God knows how many boats of corpses are cleared out. Those corpses are either tied up with chains, decapitated, or have broken bones or tendons. Some of them even have black hair. Who would eat fish from the river? ”

“Thank you for your advice, elder Jing. I will be careful!” Xia Pingan said seriously.

“If that’s the case, then we’ll part here!” Elder Jing and Xia ping ‘an took their leave. He took out a black oilcloth umbrella from his box, opened it, and carried the box down the stairs on the deck, disappearing into the vast crowd below.

Elder Jing wasn’t young, but his body was quite strong and didn’t look old at all. He held a box in his hand and his back was straight.

As she watched elder Jing leave, Xia Pingan picked up her own suitcase and mixed in with the crowd as she disembarked.

The leather suitcase was bought by Xia Pingan previously. It was a brown leather suitcase and looked very ordinary. People who traveled long distances would not bring a leather suitcase with them. It would be too conspicuous when they walked in a crowd. Many people would look at it curiously. If they brought a leather suitcase, it would look much more ordinary.

The light drizzle fell on Xia ping ‘an’s face, and it was slightly cold. Xia ping’ an, who was walking toward the dock with the crowd, suddenly felt as if he had returned to the days when he was drifting in the North.

They were too similar.

In his previous life, he had drifted to the North to study and make a name for himself. This time, he had come to Shangjing for the same purpose-Shangjing of the great Shang country was the place where Golden Moon continent’s resources, information, power, and experts gathered. At the same time, it also had the Golden Moon continent’s largest National Library and National Archives.

For a Summoner, the fastest place to cultivate wasn’t deep in the mountains or old forests, but the bustling city in front of them.

As long as he could make a name for himself in this city, he would be able to obtain far more cultivation resources than anywhere else. At the same time, he would also have the highest chance of finding clues to The Dark Tower.

The dark War god cult’s protective equipment was called the judgement Army. Only Summoners could join the judgement Army. Moreover, the judgement Army recruited Summoners who weren’t from the great Zhou Empire. As long as they were before the Yi Yang realm, they could come here and try to join the judgement Army.

Summoners who joined the adjudicator Army were one in a hundred. Once they joined the adjudicator Army, they would become a part of the adjudicators of the dark church of war, and they would have found an ” organization.

However, he had heard that it was very difficult to join the adjudicator Army. The conditions were very strict, and the summoners chosen by the adjudicator Army were almost one in a hundred. They were the best of the best.

Xia ping ‘an left the dock with the crowd that disembarked. The bustling crowd walked out of the dock and came to the street outside.

There were rows of man-powered vehicles on the roadside, which were almost as same as rickshaws. At the sight of people pouring out, those Coachmen immediately ran over here to pick up the guests.

In addition to the manual labor vehicles, Xia Pingan also saw four-wheeled carriages, small cars, and tracked vehicles on the streets of the city.

The huge grasshoppers that he had seen in Dawan city were nowhere to be seen here.

When the human-powered Coachmen poured in, those peddlers outside the exit of the dock were also holding various recruitment signs, including nannies, maidservants, manservants, apprentices, guards, and bodyguards.

When they saw a young woman with good looks walking out of the exit with things in her hands, a large number of broker employees holding signs to recruit maidservants and nannies rushed over and began to promise various conditions.

Some children who were begging for food and selling newspapers also rushed over.

The exit was a little chaotic for a moment.

The scene in front of him was somewhat similar to Shanghai in the old society.

Xia Pingan, who was squeezed in the crowd, had only taken a few steps when he felt two chopsticks quickly reach into his pocket from the side.
