Spiritual Jade Sword Sect and the Jade Scale Family
The Spiritual Jade Sword Sect Hermit Sect, having emerged only a year ago, has already left a profound mark on the continent.
What's most surprising is that after such a powerful Hermit Sect, comparable to the Upper Three Sects, emerged, it didn't seek fame, fortune, or power, but instead opened a so-called escort agency and restaurant? However, those in the higher echelons of the Spirit Master World know just how terrifying the Lingyu Escort Agency's ability to amass wealth truly is.
Lingyu Escort Agency also has a nickname, "Divine Wind Express," because no matter whether it's an order from an ordinary person or Soul Master, no matter how far away, it can be delivered within three days at the latest. Moreover, the person delivering the goods is Soul Master, at least Soul Master of the forty-level Soul Ancestor.
It's important to understand that while there are only 100,000 Soul Master on the Douluo Continent, there are over 10 billion ordinary people. Even if the lowest-level "delivery" service only charges one Bronze Spirit Coin, the total amount is still terrifying.
Moreover, many Soul Master also need to transport goods, or even deliver messages. Because the Lingyu Escort Agency has such an excellent reputation, it is completely trustworthy.
Anyone who dared to damage the reputation of Lingyu Escort Agency was basically wiped out the next day.
Many forces have even been wiped out for offending the Lingyu Escort Agency, and several powerful figures from the Spiritual Jade Sword Sect have also been exposed.
The two most famous among them are Fire Element Sword and Ice Sword. It is said that these two are also the guardian elders of the Spiritual Jade Sword Sect, who are responsible for dealing with those "lawbreakers" who covet the Lingyu Escort Agency and are detrimental to the agency.
In reality, these are the two elemental abilities used by Oscar's clones, ice and fire. However, this was done with the help of Dugu Bo's clone, who wiped out the entire family, leaving no survivors. As a result, the story has become increasingly fantastical.
Moreover, it was precisely because of the emergence of the Lingyu Escort Agency that the entire Spirit Master World realized that Dugu Bo was not alone; he also had his own family. It was just that his family had been living in seclusion before, and only appeared on the continent because of the emergence of the Spiritual Jade Sword Sect.
Why did such a rumor exist? Because once, Dugu Bo was invited to the palace to admire the flowers by Prince Xue Xing of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, while a force in the distant Balak Kingdom planned to get a share of the newly established Lingyu Escort Agency.
Then, their entire family was wiped out by a Titled Douluo whose Martial Soul was suspected to be the Jade Phosphorus Snake. Moreover, that Titled Douluo made a threatening statement, saying that if anyone dared to mess with their Lingyu Escort Agency, he, "Dugu Ao," and the entire Jade Scale Family would not let them off the hook... (Note 1)
At the time when Dugu Ao was wiping out the entire family, Dugu Bo was enjoying the flowers in the Imperial Palace!
When Prince Xue Xing later learned of this, he questioned Dugu Bo, who admitted that he did indeed come from the Jade Scale Family, but he was the least talented member, his Martial Soul being only the Jade Phosphorus Snake, which led to his expulsion from the clan...
Prince Xue Xing asked why? You are Titled Douluo! Your Martial Soul, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, is now comparable to the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Serpents. Would your family still look down on you?
Dugu Bo immediately covered his face and sighed, "My Martial Soul did indeed evolve step by step from the Jade Phosphorus Snake Serpent to the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, comparable to the ancestor of all serpents, but the Martial Soul inherited by our family is the Jade Scale Dragon Emperor! They are dragons, while I am just a serpent..."
There are many more similar rumors, some true and some false, which spread rapidly throughout the continent in a short period of time, quickly popularizing the information to those who were unaware of it.
And it is precisely because of this that no one dares to provoke Lingyu Escort Agency now, after all, they have at least two or three Titled Douluo behind them!
And it is precisely because of this that the Spirit Hall, the Star Luo Imperial Family, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, one of the Upper Three Sects, all of which are top-tier forces on the continent, have tried to win over the Spiritual Jade Sword Sect and the "family" to which Dugu Bo belongs.
However, the Spirit Jade Sword Lord was very tactful. He did not accept the recruitment of various forces, but only said that his emergence into the world was to give the sect disciples some training and let them walk in the world to comprehend a deeper level of swordsmanship.
They offered a whole host of excuses, none of which were credible. The key point is that even after refusing, they still made overtures to these major powers, even the Lower Four Sects, and the various kingdoms and duchies on the continent.
Even though the Spiritual Jade Sword Sect doesn't compete or fight, it only does business in restaurants and escort agencies, and is willing to give these supporting forces a share of the profits every year.
With this whole plan in place, the matter of the Spiritual Jade Sword Sect was completely unhindered. After all, their strength was undeniable, and anyone who wanted a share of the pie would have to see if their own fists were strong enough.
Now that they're willing to befriend you, they're practically giving you money for free. All you need to do within your jurisdiction is clear a small area for them to build on. Only a fool would choose to oppose them.
Moreover, those who opposed him are now overgrown with weeds, so in just one year, the Spiritual Jade Sword Sect has taken root all over the continent, with restaurants and escort agencies springing up everywhere.
Tang San and Xiao Wu entered the restaurant. Tang San walked to the counter with ease and said, "Please give us two rooms, and also bring us a table of 'God of Food Eight Immortals'."
Back in Nuoding City, Xiao Wu would return to Lingyu Restaurant every now and then. Although it was now Lingyu Restaurant in Suotuo City, Tang San found that the furnishings and dishes were exactly the same when he entered, so he simply ordered the same things as before.
Moreover, due to the change at Lingyu Restaurant, Tang San and Xiao Wu did not encounter any service staff who knew how to flirt; they were simply told that there was only one room left.
They also didn't encounter Dai Mubai, because Dai Mubai hadn't left Shrek Academy at all; he was currently in seclusion cultivating!
The waiter agreed and then handed over two small jade plaques, "The rooms are on the fourth floor, 401 and 402. Would you like your meals delivered to your room or eaten in the restaurant on the second floor?"
Tang San glanced at Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu said, "Please deliver this to room 401."
The waiter nodded upon hearing this, noted down Xiao Wu's request in his notebook, and then said, "One Silver Spirit Coin for two rooms, and one Gold Soul Coin for each table of 'God of Food Eight Immortals'."
Before the waiter could finish speaking, Tang San had already expertly handed over a Gold Soul Coin and a Silver Spirit Coin. The waiter smiled slightly at this and said, "It seems you two are regular customers. I apologize for not recognizing you earlier."
Tang San was no longer surprised by the polite waiters, as Lingyu Restaurant had an excellent reputation, something he had already experienced back in Nuoding City.
Tang San smiled and said, "It's alright. This is my first time at your restaurant, but I used to frequent your chain restaurants when I was in Nuoding City."
Hearing this, the waiter maintained his smile and said, "Then enjoy your meal."
Tang San then led Xiao Wu up to the fourth floor, completely unaware of a masked young man in the hotel lobby who was calculating accounts with an abacus. The young man merely glanced at Tang San and Xiao Wu, seemingly oblivious to their presence.
After Tang San and Xiao Wu went upstairs, the young man's lips curled up. "They've finally arrived."
Just as Tang San and Xiao Wu went upstairs, a girl dressed in a simple white glass dress walked in.
The girl had long, smooth, jet-black hair and seemed to be about half a head shorter than Xiao Wu who had just passed by. She had delicate features, fair and smooth skin, and was very beautiful, like a princess who had stepped out of a storybook.
Just like Tang San and Xiao Wu before her, the girl easily ordered a room and a meal before going upstairs.
The masked youth watched the girl go upstairs, a smile still playing on his lips, "What a coincidence."
Please vote for me! Actually, Golden Crow had already planned out this part of the story, and Oscar's plans using his Fourth Spirit Ability will unfold one by one.
When I designed this part, the outline I wrote was about 100,000 words long. However, recently many readers have felt that the plot is a bit padded. But there's no way around it; a lot of things have to be explained so that everyone can understand! Otherwise, if a certain character suddenly appears, or Oscar's clone suddenly does something somewhere, it will leave everyone a little confused.
So I had no choice but to write it out slowly, one stage at a time.
Although this is fan fiction, many of the plot points were designed by Golden Crow himself.
However, Golden Crow will try to streamline the plot and avoid dragging things out, so that everyone can enjoy watching it.
Thank you!
