7 Legion Page
Yang Lei followed Xiao Yan out of the forest. Along the way, Xiao Yan gave him the rundown of this world. Although the former had never gone out into the real world, he had read from books about this faction.
Xiao Yan's clan lived in Wu Tan City which was part of the Jia Ma Empire. Even though the city was listed as one of the larger cities within Jia Ma Empire, it was still dwarfed by the size of the empire, despite having the Magic Monsters Mountain Range behind it.
Within the city itself, Xiao Yan's clan was the biggest. Besides the Xiao Clan, two other clans constantly competed with the Xiao Clan. Despite 24 long years of blood and strife, they were still unable to topple the Xiao Clan's hold on the city..
If the Xiao Clan was the strongest power in Wu Tan City, then the Faction of Misty Clouds would be the strongest power in the entire Jia Ma Empire! The difference between the Faction of Misty Clouds and the Xiao Clan was like the heavens and the earth, to the point where Xiao Zhan, Clan Lord of the Xiao Clan, and father of Xiao Yan, would have to be extremely respectful in front of these guests.
When Xiao Yan began speaking about the Faction of Misty Clouds, his face darkened slightly. Although he tried to hide it, Yang Lei still noticed this slight change.
"This Faction of Misty Clouds," Yang Lei interrupted, "You are dissatisfied with them?"
"T-this.." Xiao Yan was surprised. How did his older brother realize? He hesitated before he let out a long sigh. "My fiancé was accepted as a student of the faction leader of Misty Clouds. When she displayed exceptional talent, she decided to use her newly-gained powers to..cancel her promised marriage with me."
"Oof! little brother Xiao, I feel your pain!" Yang Lei winced when he heard his little martial brother's story. He looked at him curiously and asked, "What do you do then?"
"..I divorced her instead," Xiao Yan replied sheepishly and scratched his head.
".." Yang Lei was surprised at his little martial brother's guts. He recovered from his shock before he asked, "What was her face like? Was it like 'I am so pissed' or was it 'I want to kill you'?"
"Um..she was shocked and maybe a..little fearful?" Xiao Yan didn't know how to respond to his martial brother's question.
"Fearful, huh," Yang Lei nodded his head. Truly worthy of being the protagonist of the world. Even as a cripple, Xiao Yan had still managed to induce fear in a girl stars above him in strength.

"Here, we are. This is Bai Xin Inn; you should stay here for the night. If I bring you to the clan, they might cause trouble for me, given my status in the clan," Xiao Yan apologized as he paid for Yang Lei's room at the receptionist with a black card.
After he brought Yang Lei to the room, Xiao Yan tossed the card to him and said, "This is a common card. The maximum it contains is only 5000 gold coins. But.. there is only 1000 left in there.."
"1000 gold coins?" Yang Lei raised his eyebrows. Wouldn't that be equivalent to a white crystal coin on Earth? Yet, the most common card contains 5000 gold coins maximum?
"Ah, brother Yang, that's all I have! I am only a 'cripple', remember? Even this money was borrowed from Xun Er!" Xiao Yan hurriedly explained in fear that Yang Li would think that he was being stingy.
"Gold is worth this little?" Yang Lei was shocked. If he could amass a great amount of money and bring it back to Earth..wouldn't he crash the economy?
"Don't worry! I have thought of a way to make money and Yao Lao has decided to help me.." Xiao Yan assured his martial brother.
"Hah, I knew there was a reason why I liked you!" Yang Lei laughed and patted Xiao Yan on the back. He chuckled and said, "Alright, alright.. It's getting late. You should go home and get some rest, ok?"
"Sure, you get some rest too," Xiao Yan smiled sheepishly, "Wait, can I have the ring back? It was given to me by my mother. Also, I need Yao Lao to make money."\u000c"Oh yeah!" Yang Leu felt stupid. He took out the ring and released Yao Lao, saying, "I totally forgot!"
[Yao Lao, are you willing to Yang Lei's teacher?] A panel appeared before Yao Lao.
"Oh, no.. not this!" Yao Lao exclaimed in exasperation.. He deliberated for a while before he stroked his spirit beard and sighed, "Alright, brat, I'll do it!"
The panel flashed and Yao Lao was successfully recruited as Yang Lei's teacher.
"Nice! We are real martial brothers now!" Xiao Yan bumped fists with Yang Lei and smiled happily. Then he touched his nose and said, "We'll talk with Xun Er tomorrow?"
"Whenever you want, brother Xiao.." Yang Lei smiled as he saw Xiao Yan out. "I promised you that if she truly loved you, I'll bring her along with us. We brothers are true men! True men keep their promises!"
"True men.." Xiao Yan seemed to be deep in thought when he was walking home.

[World Shop: ...]
Yang Lei didn't buy any information nor items from the world shop. The items offered were all useless or overpriced in his opinion. He could also get more information from Xiao Yan tomorrow.
The World Shop refreshed once a week just like the Market Page did. He would take anther look then. Suddenly, Yang Lei remembered about the Market Page. The Demonslayer Blade had attracted his attention. As a Gray item, a junk, why was it priced at 5,000 SP?
