Chapter 2833: with translation of chapter title

As a prince of the Shadow Demon Race, the handsome youth named A Jiu was the ninth among his brothers and had been called that since childhood.

Entities: Shadow Demon Race.

"handsome youth" is descriptive, not a name. "A Jiu" is a name (nickname). According to glossary, we have no entry for A Jiu, but it's a person's name (habitual nickname). Must be pinyin: "A Jiu"? Actually "A Jiu" is a nickname meaning "Little Nine". According to rules: For a person's actual name or habitual nickname, we use pinyin. So we should romanize as "A Jiu"? Usually "A Jiu" with space? The rule: Use Hanyu Pinyin ONLY for a person's actual NAME (including a nickname, childhood name, courtesy name, or epithet habitually used as that person's name). Capitalize them. So we need to output the pinyin: "A Jiu"? Actually "A Jiu" pinyin: "A Jiu". Without tones: "A Jiu". Should we keep tone marks? Usually we omit tone marks. So "A Jiu". Capitalize each part? Usually "A Jiu". We'll output "A Jiu". However we need to check if any other usage: later lines refer to A Jiu as the protagonist. So we will translate as "A Jiu". Also note that the glossary didn't list it, but we must use pinyin.

"He ranks ninth among the brothers." - no new entity.

"After receiving the mission to infiltrate the human race, A Jiu initially didn't take it seriously."

Entities: Human Race already in glossary. "A Jiu" as before.

"After all, the Lord Main God's command is simply to lie low; for the time being, he doesn't need to do anything."

Entities: Lord Main God (Lord Main God? Actually "Lord Main God" is a title, maybe "Lord Main God". Not a person name; it's a title. Should translate by meaning: "Lord Main God". Not in glossary. So we translate.

"If that's the case, then for A Jiu, it's about as easy as a task can get."

Entities: A Jiu.

"Even using human methods, even if Zhao Tianqing and Tianhe, such powerful experts, stood before them, they would find it hard to detect any clues."

Entities: Human Race, Zhao Tianqing (in glossary), Tianhe (in glossary).

"After all, this is what the Shadow Demon Race excels at; it can be said to be the basis of their livelihood."

Entities: Shadow Demon Race.

"Everything had been going smoothly; when they entered the city, the Heavenly Palace experts, after careful inspection, detected nothing unusual."

Entities: Heavenly Palace (in glossary).

"But the problem arose after entering the city."

No new.

"According to A Jiu's plan, after entering the city, he would disguise himself as an ordinary human cultivator, first find a suitable identity, so as to remain hidden in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens for an extended period."

Entities: A Jiu, Human Race, Immortal City Beyond the Heavens (in glossary).

"Anyway, this wasn't the first time he'd done such a thing; he had prior experience, and in the past he'd always completed it perfectly."

No new.

"But this time, after entering the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, A Jiu was somewhat dumbfounded."

Entities: Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, A Jiu.

"Damn, how can there be so many people in this city? Does the human race really have that many inhabitants?"

Entities: Human Race.

"Looking around, everywhere is full of people; there's no way to get a room at an inn in the city to temporarily settle down."

No new.

"All rooms are fully booked."

No new.

"Even getting a spot to listen to a song at the courtesan quarters requires waiting in line, and at least several double-hours."

Entities: courtesan quarters (in glossary), double-hour (in glossary).

"After all, A Jiu needs to find lodging, and many human cultivators who have come from the Immortal Realm also need to find lodging."

"There was nothing he could do; A Jiu spent several days crouched in a corner, feeling utterly speechless."

Entities: A Jiu.

"He found it strange: with so many people in the human race, why didn't they build the city wider? It's not like they lack the ability."

Entities: Human Race.

"Do they have to be crammed together to feel comfortable? What a weird habit."

No new.

"His identity remained concealed, but being unfamiliar with the place, his life was extremely miserable."

No new.

"Even with money, he couldn't spend it."

No new.

"Even trying to use money to pressure people was useless; instead, he was insulted."

"Just last night, A Jiu could no longer bear crouching in the corner, so he found the most ordinary inn in the city."

Entities: A Jiu.

"It was obvious the place was full; A Jiu thought he was clever to seek out a human cultivator."

Entities: A Jiu, Human Race.

"This guy was lucky; he had opened an ordinary room at this inn, and when A Jiu approached to negotiate, he initially intended to offer extra money to secure it."

Entities: inn (generic, not named). No.

"It's just an ordinary room, after all; in A Jiu's view, I'll pay you double, triple—let me have it, and you won't lose out."

Entities: A Jiu.

"\"Fellow Daoist, I'm buying this room from you at double the price. \""

Entities: fellow Daoist (fellow Daoist) generic term of address, not a rank; should translate? It's a form of address, generic. According to rules: generic forms of address (not ranks) excluded. So we translate meaning: "fellow Daoist". But the rule says exclude generic forms of address (not ranks) from glossary. So we don't need to list it in glossary, but we should translate it in the line. So we will translate "fellow Daoist". Good.

"\"Double? \""

No new.

"\"Yes. \""

No new.

"\"Hmph. \""

No new.

"The other party let out a cold snort; A Jiu was momentarily stunned, wondering what that meant, but then he gritted his teeth and said."

Entities: A Jiu.

"\"Triple. \""

No new.

"However, the next second, the other party flung a space ring over."

Entities: space ring (in glossary).

"\"Get lost, do you think I'm short on money? \""

No new.

"\"Huh??? \""

No new.

"Even offering triple the price didn't sway them; instead, they humiliated him by producing immortal crystals."

Entities: immortal crystal.

"When A Jiu walked out of the inn, his feelings were a mixed bag, wondering why things were so different from before."

Entities: A Jiu.

"In the past, when carrying out missions, he had never encountered such a situation where money was refused."

No new.

"A Jiu still didn't realize that the current Immortal City Beyond the Heavens was completely different from usual."

Entities: A Jiu, Immortal City Beyond the Heavens.

"Among those who can come to the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, who is short on money? Setting aside cultivation level, they all have backgrounds."

Entities: Immortal City Beyond the Heavens.

"Those without a background can hardly afford the fee for the space passage, let alone come to enjoy the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens."

Entities: space passage, Immortal City Beyond the Heavens.

"The current Immortal City Beyond the Heavens is basically a money-sucking pit."

Entities: Immortal City Beyond the Heavens.

"Those who can come here are each among the wealthiest of the human race."

Entities: Human Race.

"Trying to win them over with money is really a pipe dream."

No new.

"Again forced to crouch in a corner all night, he still hadn't recovered when he just arrived on Main Street, and the next second he saw crowds pouring in from all directions."

Entities: main street.

"Then, without hesitation, they carried him off in one direction."

No new.

"In the crowd, A Jiu gritted his teeth, struggling to keep his balance, feeling furious inside."

Entities: A Jiu.

"If possible, he'd really want to fight these human cultivators; what the hell is this, are all these people rushing to find death?"

Entities: Human Race.

"But the gaze of those Heavenly Palace experts in midair made A Jiu dare not move at all."

Entities: Heavenly Palace, A Jiu.

"If he makes a move, his identity could be exposed; whether he can complete the mission aside, it's uncertain whether he'll even be able to leave the city."

No new.

"So even though A Jiu was swaying in the crowd, he continually restrained himself from striking, merely unable to help cursing."

Entities: A Jiu.

"\"Stop pushing, where exactly are you all headed? \""

No new.

"\"You don't know? \""

No new.

"The people beside him were also squeezed uncomfortably, yet their eyes were full of excitement; hearing this, they turned their heads suspiciously and asked."

No new.

"In response, A Jiu gritted his teeth and let out a low growl."

Entities: A Jiu.

"\"I don't know anything, damn it. \""

No new.

"Ye Xianchu has come to Baxian Lou, ah, you don't want to go try your luck—maybe you'll get to eat it."

"Lao Wu, what the hell are you doing? Come protect me!"

As soon as that person finished speaking, an old man not far away shouted loudly.

"Here comes the Old Ancestor."

Saying that, he moved toward the other person, and together with a few others they subtly shielded the old man in the middle; it was easy to see that the several people around were the old man's guards.

Bringing them along was just to deal with this moment.

Inside the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, fighting is prohibited, so at this moment these low-cultivation guards show their value.

A human wall is really useful; being protected by one's own people in the middle makes things much more relaxed.

And A Jiu, watching that person leave, his mind remained in a fog.

"What the hell is the Eight Immortals Pavilion, and who is Ye Xianchu?"

"You all with so many people are going to the Eight Immortals Pavilion, huh?"

A Jiu was puzzled—how could a single tavern attract so many people? The Human Race is just bored, looking for something to do all day.

He naturally had no interest in the Eight Immortals Pavilion; A Jiu just wanted to lie low quietly in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, avoid complications, and wait for further orders.

So, he tried to break away from the crowd.

"Fellow Daoist, excuse me, I need to go out."

"Go out? Where the hell is there a path."

"Right, you're not going to the Eight Immortals Pavilion? Such a good opportunity, you're not going?"

"I'm not going."

"You won't even go to the Eight Immortals Pavilion? Are you even Human Race?"

"Huh???"

Wanting to squeeze out, but there wasn't even a gap; after squeezing a bit to the side, he was quickly pushed back.

Moreover, hearing A Jiu say he wasn't going to the Eight Immortals Pavilion, the few Human Race cultivators nearby all looked at him suspiciously.

Some even said, "You don't even want to go to the Eight Immortals Pavilion—are you still Human Race?"

Upon hearing that, A Jiu's heart sank—"If I don't go to the Eight Immortals Pavilion, I'm not Human Race?" My identity's been guessed by you, huh.
