The Invincible Corruption Manual-Chapter 12 CHAPTER 11 : Entering The Glory City

Afterward, the group of warriors came back, led by Xiaoli.

" Captain, no survivor. We cremate all those burned bodies that remain. " Xiaoli gave his report.

" Tch, everyone gets back onto the black eagle. We will report about this matter when we reach the northern fort. " Captain Chao said, and they all jumped and sat on the back of the black eagle loke before ."

Now the mood of all of them became somewhat angry. Joey started speaking, " When will we reach Glory city ? "

" Soon, your highness. It would take less than an hour to get there. " Chao said.

" Captain Chao, do you have any family back at the palace? " Joey asked.

" Yes, I have my wife back there. We had a boy and a girl around your age. " Chao had a smile when he mentioned his family.

" They were twins. The girl was beautiful and always had a smile like her mother. While the boy was playful and always caused trouble anywhere he went. Every day he came with new wounds on him. Hah, he kept worrying us. But, unlike me, they were so good in cultivation. They both reached the organ purification realm recently . " he continued with a proud smile.

" Good, I would like to meet and make friends with them someday. " Joey told him, smiling back.

" If they followed your highness, it would be good for them ." Chao bowed slightly to him while clapping his hands.

Joey nodded at him. Everyone becomes more relaxed after listening to their chat. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

They started joking around themselves and after some time they saw a magnificent city with tall buildings pointed at the sky.

" Let us go through the gate. Joey told captain Chao.

They landed somewhere near the city gate and started moving toward the city gate. Captain Chao brought out a beast core, fed it to the eagle, and said, " Go, stay near the city. " Then he slapped the beast, and the eagle flew away.

" Everyone stands in a queue and pays 10 copper coins each for a person . " a guard shouted at them. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

( copper coin, silver coin, and gold coin were used as a form of currency in this arc, 100000 copper coins = 1 silver coin

100000 silver coins = 1 gold coin. This is how mortals do things now .)

Joey and their groups stood silently, waiting for their turns. Suddenly a carriage approached the gate from outside the city.

" Stop, get everyone out here. Carriages from outside were not allowed to enter without the city lord's permission ." the guard shouted at the carriage.

A small girl and hooded figure came out. The girl was 4 feet tall, round with a chubby face but looked adoring. Her hair was designed with two buns on the side. She wore a Hanfu dressing style. In contrast, the hooded figure was tall and dressed in all black.

The hooded figure tossed a gold and left together with the girl saying, " You can keep the carriage also . " a female voice could be heard.

Joey seems to be interested in the hooded figure and looks at their leaving figure.

" Captain Chao, do you see their cultivation level ? " he asked him.

" The little girl seems to be in the late stages of the Houtian realm. But, I can't feel any aura from the hooded figure ." Chao said.

" Seems to be at my age and already in late stages of the Houtian realm. The hooded person seems to be a girl too ." Joey thought in his mind.

" You can't g... " The guards abruptly stop seeing the gold coin on the ground before him, and he picks it up quickly and coughs, " Ahem ahem ahem, next. "

After Joey's turn comes up, he also takes out a gold coin and gives it to the guard, " Can we go in, now. "

Looking at the gold coin on his, he happily said, " Young master, please go inside ."

" Can I bring in my other friends here ?" Joey asked, pointing at his group.

" Ok, " the guard said.

Then, they walked quickly inside the city. The guard looked at the two gold coins in his hand and laughed happily, " I am rich. Now, I will stop being a guard here and buy a small motel. Hahaha. "

Joey and the team walked on the road and observed all around them. After several walking, they met a tourist guide boy.

" Hello sirs, if you need a guide inside the city, you can all count on me. Also, I am the best as well as cheapest one you can get here in the city . " said the boy.

" Oh, how much do you charge? " Joey asked.

" Kiddo, stay behind your elders here while adults are discussing business . " the boy said to him and turned to Captain Chao.

Joey thought, " This boy seems to be younger than me. His action and speech are precisely like those of adults, though. "

" You da-re " captain Chao becomes angry at how the boy disrespect the 5th prince. But, stop by a pinch from behind. He looked at Joey, and Joey smiled at him with a signal that it was ok. Before they had come to Glory city, Joey discussed with them to act as a commoner in the city, and they all agreed.

The boy looked at Chao with alarm.

" Kiddo, how much ?" Captain Chao asked him.

The boy brought up his fist and spread three fingers.

" 30 copper coins, deal then. " Chao said and brought out 30 copper coins from the space ring and gave it to him.

The boy thought, " They were so easy to trick. It seems like some bumkins are coming to the city for the first time. I was going to say three copper coins, but this muscular guy just gave me 30 copper coins. Hahaha, serve you right for trying to scare me just now. Lucky that you all met me. Otherwise, you would all sleep in the street today. "

" Hey boy, bring us to a motel. " Captain Chao said, disrupting his thoughts.

Then the boy brought them to a motel nearby. The motel doesn't look luxurious but seems to be quite clean inside. Seeing it, Chao nodded his head with approval. The motel had a signboard above the entrance door tag with the words ' Chu Hua's motel '.

" Boy, take this and book some rooms for us 17. Oh, and you can keep the change. " Chao took out a gold coin and gave it to him. This boy reminded him of his son in the palace.

Seeing the gold coin which sparkled, the boy remained dazed for a moment and took the coin with his shaky hands. He bit the coin once and exclaimed, " It is real ."

He bowed at captain Chao slightly and said enthusiastically, " Sir, please wait here. I would book your rooms quickly. " Then he ran off to the counter.

The boy came back after some time while smiling.

" Sir, your rooms are ready, here are your keys, " He said.

" Good boy, let us go. " Chao said.

" Sir, can I really keep the change? '' The boy asked with curiosity in his eyes.

" Keep it. "
