Chapter 92: One Wave After Another
Bai Jing City is one of the wealthiest cities in the Great Xia Dynasty.
It possesses three treasures.
The first is Bai Jing. There is a saying that “an inch of Bai Jing is worth an inch of gold.” It is an extremely rare material and a superb choice for alchemists to refine treasures and swordsmiths to forge blades; it inherently accelerates internal energy and amplifies spiritual energy.
Although it is easily damaged and the methods to utilize it are highly demanding, it remains popular among many in the Jianghu.
Unfortunately, this material is monopolized by the Great Xia imperial family, and even the occasional bits of impure material that leak out are sold at sky-high prices.
The second treasure is divine weapons.
Since Bai Jing is an excellent material for forging weapons, it is natural that Bai Jing City has no shortage of divine weapons.
When traveling the Jianghu, besides powerful mystical arts, divine weapons are indispensable. A good sword can increase one’s chances of victory, while a sturdy shield can block many a lethal blow.
Whether it is a sword that cuts through iron like mud or armor that is indestructible, everything can be found here.
The third is beauties.
Extreme prosperity often leads to its opposite; the end of flourishing seems to be the beginning of corruption.
Bai Jing City houses the largest and most beautiful pleasure houses. These houses are divided into two types: one is the simple and straightforward “brothel,” while the other is the “theater” where entertainers perform arts but do not sell their bodies.
