Chapter 2139
"It's off to the Ice Pole Divine Kingdom..." The woman smiled sweetly at He Ping Sheng.
Her smile bloomed with a hundred charms.
Even He Ping Sheng felt his heart stir slightly.
Wait, no!
He Ping Sheng instantly grew vigilant.
What technique had this woman cast?
"Oh..." He was secretly on guard inside, but didn't show it, merely rubbing his hands and saying, "Yes, I'm in a bit of a rush to get going!"
"The time isn't long, nine months... you wait here for nine months, and the teleportation array will activate, sending you to the Ice Pole Divine Kingdom!"
"Do I need to buy a teleportation ticket?"
He Ping Sheng was instantly overjoyed: Nine months?
Good heavens, my luck has been good all the way.
"Sure, sure..." He Ping Sheng said, "Give me one teleportation ticket to the Ice Pole Divine Kingdom!"
"Four hundred million low-grade Divine Gold!" The woman smiled sweetly again, extending a jade hand to He Ping Sheng.
He Ping Sheng's brow twitched: "This expensive?"
He had teleported many times before, each time costing one hundred million.
How come it became four hundred million here?
"Hehehe..." The woman laughed heartily, "Fellow Daoist doesn't know, this teleportation platform to the Ice Pole Divine Kingdom is no ordinary thing."
"For one, the distance is far; for two, few people go there, so we have to add the shortfall onto the heads of you people teleporting!"
The woman explained a whole pile of reasons.
He Ping Sheng nodded, saying, "Alright then, I'll buy it!"
He took out four pieces of high-grade Divine Gold.
Then obtained a teleportation ticket.
He Ping Sheng didn't leave, directly taking the ticket to the second floor to wait.
However, he always felt as if something on him had drained away, like someone had stolen something from him.
But what exactly was stolen, he didn't know.
Just a feeling.
"This feeling is truly strange..."
"This place is also permeated with eeriness!"
He Ping Sheng's gaze swept across the entire grand hall.
He discovered there were pitifully few people here.
Not to mention the first-floor lobby had almost no one, even the people waiting for teleportation on the second floor weren't many; at a glance, only twenty-odd people.
Hiss hiss hiss...
Isn't this too few?
Wasn't it teleporting in nine months?
Why only twenty-odd people?
Even waiting another nine months, it'd be impossible to gather a thousand people, right?
He Ping Sheng originally wanted to find someone to ask, but then saw several large characters pasted on the second-floor wall: No talking, no Divine Sense communication, otherwise teleportation qualifications revoked.
Holy crap?
There's even this kind of bizarre rule?
He Ping Sheng had truly seen it all.
Forget it, forget it, so be it if talking isn't allowed.
He Ping Sheng shook his head, randomly found a spot to sit down, then sat in meditation with a calm mind.
Wait.
During the waiting time, He Ping Sheng conveniently comprehended some Space Dao techniques.
Time passed very fast, in a blink, nine months passed.
The teleportation time arrived.
He Ping Sheng walked down from the second floor to the first, but discovered that among the many cultivators on the second floor, not a single one followed him down.
????
What's going on?
Wasn't it time to teleport?
"Hello..." He Ping Sheng walked back to that window.
The originally sweet woman behind the window had now turned into a white-haired, pale old man.
This was understandable too, after all, shifts always need changing.
"Hello..." He Ping Sheng asked very politely, "This teleportation ticket to the Ice Pole Divine Kingdom, is it teleporting today?"
"Today?" The old man frowned, took He Ping Sheng's ticket and glanced at it, saying, "No, no... it's still early, it'll be four more years before it can teleport!"
"Four more years?" He Ping Sheng's face darkened: Your grandmother's...
"No, wait, there was a woman before, the one who sold me the ticket, said nine months, I waited nine months and you tell me there's still four more years?"
"Uh..." The old man somewhat embarrassedly touched his nose, saying, "Fellow Daoist... don't be angry!"
"Shh shh shh... there's a small misunderstanding in between!"
"How about this, Fellow Daoist come with me, I'll explain it to you!"
The old man came out from behind the counter and then brought He Pingsheng into an elegant room.
The elegant room was very large, with all kinds of furniture made of divine wood, so much so that saying this elegant room was essentially a small courtyard would not be an exaggeration.
"Fellow Daoist, please don't be angry, it's like this!" The old man explained with a sincere face: "That woman earlier was my granddaughter, and she has some issues here!"
While speaking, the old man pointed to his own head.
Meaning my granddaughter has something wrong with her head.
"During that time I wasn't around, she impersonated a staff member, so she caused you a misunderstanding!"
"How about this... if you're not satisfied, you can get a refund, I'll refund you one billion low-grade divine gold, alright?"
"One billion?" He Pingsheng was speechless: "When I bought the ticket, you charged me four billion, and now you're refunding me one billion?"
"You..."
"Ah?" The old man was startled again: "She... she actually took four billion from you?"
"This damned girl... fine, fine, fine..."
"I'll refund you three billion right now, do you want top-grade, middle-grade, or low-grade?"
He Pingsheng thought for a moment: "Give me low-grade!"
As a result, this old man really did refund He Pingsheng three billion low-grade divine gold.
He Pingsheng let out a sigh of relief: it seems this old man's granddaughter probably really has something wrong with her head, it was a misunderstanding.
In that case, let's forgive her then.
After all, it caused me no loss.
Nine months is a wait, four years is also a wait.
"Fellow Daoist, this specific time is four years..." He Pingsheng looked at the old man.
The old man took a sip of tea and said: "The specific time is four years, eight months, and nine days!"
"Fellow Daoist, is this your first time coming to our True Divine Kingdom?"
He Pingsheng nodded: "That's right, after coming from the Wuwang Divine Kingdom, I directly stayed on the second floor!"
"Oh, I see!" The old man said: "Then Young Master might as well travel around our True Divine Kingdom, our customs here... hehehe... are not quite the same as elsewhere!"
While speaking, the old man also smiled kindly.
He Pingsheng said: "Alright... then I'll come again on the day of transmission."
"That won't do!" The old man said: "Young Master had better come a few days in advance!"
"Oh right... let me tell you, in the capital of our True Divine Kingdom, there is no flight prohibition, you can fly as you wish!"
"Wishing Fellow Daoist smooth sailing!"
He Pingsheng walked out from within the Ice Pole Divine Hall.
However, he always felt this place was very strange.
Also, just after coming out from the old man's elegant room, how come I feel like something on my body has been lost?
Hey...
Really strange.
He Pingsheng walked from the transmission platform to the outside main street, and the people on this street were also very few.
Compared to ordinary Dacheng, the population here is less than one-tenth of other capitals.
Really strange indeed.
Whoosh...
The next moment, He Pingsheng directly flew into the high sky!
He saw the lord's manor, and also a plaque hanging at the gate of the lord's manor: Tranquil Immortal City.
Good fellow, True Divine Kingdom, Tranquil Immortal City.
Tsk tsk tsk, quite interesting.
As a result... He Pingsheng had just flown into the void for less than ten breaths when he was intercepted by four fellows wearing purple-black Daoist robes.
"Stop!"
"Dog thing, dare to fly in the city?"
"Courting death!"
"Get down for me!"
???
He Pingsheng was completely dazed!
