Chapter 270 - 270 All Warriors, City of Gold?



This was not the only strange thing.

Although the buildings in the city were very exquisite, their surfaces were all black and shiny. They looked like they were also made of molten iron. Even the spacious streets were no exception.

At this moment, it was almost dusk. There were not many people on the street, but the sound of their footsteps landing on the street was very strange.

Lin Ran couldn’t help but frown. Although the people living in Iron City were all top-notch craftsmen, wasn’t it a little too extravagant to build such a steel city just to show off?

While he was thinking, Liu Hongshan had already stopped in front of a shop. “Take a rest here. I’ll go get the saber.”

Lin Ran looked into the shop and realized that it should be an inn. However, the tables, chairs, and benches inside were all made of metal. Although they looked quite unique, they also gave off a strange feeling.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Ran said, “I’ll go with you.”

When Liu Hongshan heard this, he chuckled. “Why? Are you afraid that I’ll set a trap for you?”

“I’m afraid you’ll take the opportunity to run away.”

Lin Ran replied honestly, “With your speed, it’ll be difficult for me to catch up with you.”

Liu Hongshan was speechless for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, he said helplessly, “I need to talk to the City Lord first. With your status, you are not allowed to see him.”

Without waiting for Lin Ran to speak, Liu Hongshan continued, “It’s not like I don’t want you to follow me, but if you cause any trouble, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”

Seeing Liu Hongshan’s serious gaze, Lin Ran knew that he was not lying.

“Alright, I’ll wait for you here.”

Lin Ran nodded and walked in. Suddenly, he thought of something and turned to look at Liu Hongshan. “How long do you need?”

Liu Hongshan thought for a moment. “Fifteen minutes at most.”

“Sure.”

Lin Ran nodded again, and his tone suddenly became cold. “If I don’t see you in fifteen minutes, I can’t guarantee what I’ll do.”

Liu Hongshan smiled indifferently and turned to walk along the street. Lin Ran entered the inn. As soon as he entered, a young man greeted him.

“Sir, are you dining or staying?”

The young man had a bright smile on his face, like an experienced waiter.

Lin Ran couldn’t help but frown again. Didn’t Liu Hongshan say that the people living here were all top-notch craftsmen? Then what was going on with this waiter?

As he thought to himself, Lin Ran took out some money and handed it over. “Get me a room and some food.”

“Alright!”

When the young man saw the money, his eyes lit up. “Please go upstairs! The second room on the left is our best room!”

Lin Ran nodded and walked up the iron steps to the second floor, but he was in no hurry to enter the room. Instead, he stood by the railing and looked at the waiter downstairs.

When the two of them were talking just now, he had noticed that there was no internal energy fluctuation on this waiter. Either he was an ordinary person without cultivation, or his cultivation was not low and he could control his internal energy very well.

However, no matter how well martial artists controlled their internal energy, they would subconsciously do something that ordinary people wouldn’t do.

For example, this waiter walked with his heels almost not touching the ground. His knees were slightly bent and his body was leaning back. It was obvious that he was on guard so that he could retreat immediately if anything happened.

“It seems that this Iron City is not that simple!” Lin Ran thought to himself.

After noticing that something was wrong, the first thought that flashed across Lin Ran’s mind was that there was a trap. However, on second thought, he felt that it was unlikely. Liu Hongshan didn’t need to go so far to set up a trap specially for him.

After returning to his room and looking at the iron furniture, Lin Ran immediately felt a little speechless. After hesitating for a moment, he sat down on the iron chair and silently spread out a wisp of divine sense.

Worried that he would be discovered, Lin Ran didn’t use his divine sense to cover the entire city. He only searched the area about a hundred steps around him.

He realized that although there were not many people around, most of them were martial artists. Most of them were around the realm of Martial Master, and dozens of them were Senior Martial Masters.

As for whether there was anyone with a higher cultivation level, Lin Ran was not sure now. This was because when he used his divine sense to search, he could clearly feel that there were a few places where his detection was blocked.

With Lin Ran’s current cultivation, breaking through this barrier was a piece of cake. However, in order not to cause trouble, he retracted his divine sense first.

Almost at the same time, there was a knock on the door. The waiter from before shouted from outside, “Sir! The food is here!”

“Come in!”

The waiter walked in with an iron tray. There were also iron cups, plates, and chopsticks on it, but fortunately, the food on the plate was not made of iron.

“I didn’t know what you liked to eat, so I asked the kitchen to prepare a few specialties.”

As the waiter spoke, he placed the tray on the table with a clang.

Lin Ran thanked him and picked up his chopsticks. Suddenly, he thought of something and looked at the waiter. “How long has this city been built?”

“Oh… It’s been quite long.”

The waiter looked like he was in deep thought. After a while, he replied, “It’s been almost two to three hundred years… Why are you asking?”

“It looks strange, so I was just asking.”

Lin Ran smiled and looked around, pretending to ask casually, “Since it’s been two to three hundred years, why is there no rust in this city? Do you have any secret to maintaining it?”

“Maintaining?”

The waiter looked confused at first, then he laughed out loud. “The Iron City is not made of iron. There won’t be any rust even in two to three hundred years!”

Lin Ran raised his eyebrows. A metal that wouldn’t rust for two to three thousand years… Could it be gold?

Gold would indeed turn black after a long period of oxidation, but was the Great Yong Dynasty so rich that they could build a city with gold?

Just as Lin Ran was about to get more information from the waiter, the window was suddenly blown open by a strong wind and a figure floated in with the wind.

Lin Ran looked up and saw that it was Liu Hongshan who had barged in. It had been exactly 15 minutes since he left.

The waiter’s body tensed up for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. He turned around and smiled helplessly. “Sir, please walk through the door next time. You spooked me.”

...

“Sorry.”

Liu Hongshan smiled and took out a slender wooden box from behind him. “Leave first. We have something to discuss.”
