When Jun Changxiao first came to Yellow Sand City, there were few martial artists in the city. Yellow sand blanketed the streets, making it seem like an abandoned ancient city.
By the time he came for the second time, the main street was filled with martial artists in different attire, and the once-closed ore shops were already packed to the brim.
Cangsha Sect and Chengfeng Sect had fought for so long that the entire ore industry had been dragged into it and fallen into paralysis.
Now that their conflict had been resolved, business naturally had to resume as usual.
Forces from other prefectures and counties had always been short on supplies. Now that they learned everything had returned to normal, they would certainly spare no effort in purchasing goods.
Every ore shop was crowded with forces from other prefectures and counties. They haggled fiercely, their faces red from the argument.
Anyone unaware of the situation might have thought a conflict was about to erupt and a full-blown brawl could break out at any moment.
"Quite lively."
Jun Changxiao stopped before an ore shop.
Before he even entered, passersby nearby cast scornful looks his way.
Jun Changxiao had rushed to Yellow Sand City to purchase ore and had paid no attention to his appearance. He was now covered in dust, looking like a miner at first glance.
He actually was a miner, seeing as he had mined alone for half a month.
In this world, miners were as lowly as servants and maidservants. Suddenly appearing on a high-end commercial street, he naturally could not avoid being ostracized.
Jun Changxiao did not care about others' gazes. With his head held high and chest out, he strode into the ore shop.
"Heh, this little miner is quite full of himself."
Everyone muttered inwardly.
