《The Lazy Young Master》Chapter 27: Huang City
Advertisement
Next day, Tian left for Huang city and Zhang Tie tagged along with him. Tian didn't bring Little White along with him, he wasn't sure what sort of ruckus it would cause after he enters the Spiritual Pool. It never listens to Zhang Tie, so it was better to let it stay at home.
There was still time to visit the City Lord manor for entering the spirit pool, so they wanted to look around the market first. There were all sorts of things in the market. They even saw some beast cubs being sold.
"What are you going to do till I come out?", Tian asked as he was savoring the roasted duck pieces in his hand. Tian was enjoying the food so much, that he didn't even care about the duck oil on his mouth.
"I heard there is a battle arena in Huang city, but never got the chance to visit. Guess I'll go over there and do some shopping for my sister", Zhang Tie said as he walked with a body builder pose, crossing his arms and showing his muscles.
Some of the people on the street recognized Tian and Zhang Tie, some young ladies immediately crowded them, what was shocking was that Tian was completely pushed aside from the crowd. All the girls were crazy about Zhang Tie.
Compared to the oily faced Tian, the strong looking and decent Zhang Tie attracted the young ladies more. Zhang Tie was getting squeezed between them, unable to get out of the crowd he kept struggling.
"Brother!!! help me!!!....oy where are you going!.....don't leave me...!!", Zhang Tie cried out loud as the crowd kept pushing him away from Tian. Pitiful Zhang, he got to face the reality of the world, while getting crushed under some beautiful young ladies.
'It's a sin, to not praise a beauty when you see one. Guess brother Zhang was one of those beauties', Tian shrugged as he kept walking away from Zhang Tie, eating his roasted duck.

Tian looked around some more and finally went towards the city lord manor. When the guard saw a boy getting close to the manor gates, he immediately went ahead and blocked his path, "Kid, go somewhere else to play. Don't you know that this is the City Lord manor"
Tian simply shook his head and put his hand into his pocket, he was sure that the guard will start showing some respect only when he shows the token. His hands went deep into his pockets, left, right, back pocket, "What the-!!.....Where is my TOKEN!!!!"
Tian was really shocked to find that the token for entering the Spirit Pool was missing from his pocket. Where could it go. Suddenly, he remembered about the crowd. There was a guy among the ladies in the crowd. 'Damn! Never in my 240 years of life did i get robbed. Just you wait, when I get my hands on you, you'll experience what hell on earth is'
Tian immediately turned around and started running towards the market. When the guard saw him running, he scratched his head.
'Did i scare the kid too much?', the guard thought as he looked towards the fleeing Tian. If tian knew what the guard was thinking, he might vomit blood in anger.
Tian kept running around the market with extreme fast speed, he looked every nook and cranny but wasn't able to find the thief. Then, he saw a clock tower at the center of the market square.
Like an agile monkey, he jumped onto the roof top and jumped from one building to another and then finally jumped on top the clock tower. Like a hawk looking for its prey, Tian kept looking all over the city. Suddenly, he turned his head back in one direction and gazed far into a dark valley.
'There he is!', Tian instantly jumped off from the tower and started running towards the alley.

Thumpp!!!, Tian jumped from the top of the building onto a steel barrel. The thief got startled, when he realized that a guy suddenly fell from sky, all that on his mind was to run. He started running and tried to climb the fence in extreme fast speed.
Smack!!!, A trash can lid hit his buttocks and he fell down, as he failed to jump over the fence. He wanted to cry, 'Why do all these people want to target my butt, damn these perverts'
It was Thief Lian from the tournament, after getting thrashed at the tournament, he wanted to lay low for a few days. He wanted to catch the guy who actually robbed all of them and beat him to pulp. He finally got to rob someone successfully today, but then even this guy thrashed his butt.
Tian walked towards the thief, he then grabbed his collar and started shaking him so hard that his eyes rolled and started seeing stars in day light, "Where are my things!, Where the hell did you hide them! Take them out! Now!"
Tian finally realized he was shaking too hard and stopped, "Barf....What the hell is wrong with you....bmph...Are you trying to kill me!"
Thief Lian took out a large pouch from his coat and threw it towards Tian, "There wasn't even anything valuable inside it. What a waste. Ouch...See what you've done to my precious bums", he started to rub his butt and cried.
Tian looked into the bag and found nothing missing, he gave Thief Lian one final glare and left off, "Hmph....you deserved it"
Tian went back to the City Lord Manor, this time the guard was real angry.
"Kid! Don't you understand when I say not to come over here? If you don't flee from here you'll taste this daddy's slap. Quick get out of here", He Shouted as his chest moved because his heavy breath.
"Shut Up!", Tian was already in a bad mood after losing his bag, he took out his token and showed it to the guard. The guard immediately understood and smiled awkwardly.
"Sorry sir, I didn't knew you were here for the Spirit pool. Let me guide to the location", he started acting humble in front of him. He kept guiding him inside the city lord manor.
When they reached a particular hall, the guard stopped walking and looked towards Tian, "I'll only be able to guide you till here sir. If you go inside that Chamber, you'll be able to find a person inside, he'll take you into the Spirit Pool"
Tian went inside and saw an old man with a long beard standing guard near a Massive door inside the Chamber. Tian was not able to guess the cultivation level of the old man, but he knew that the old man didn't even need to make a move, if he wants to deal with him.
He went forward and gave a bow to the old man, "Greetings elder! I am here for entering the Spirit Pool", Tian took out his token and passed it to the old man.
The old man was surprised by Tian, he was standing guard for many decades but he didn't see a single person that came for the spirit pool showing respect to him. Only those who knew his strength respected him and the people who knew it were limited to only a handful even inside the Huang City.
He took the token from Tian and said in a calm tone, "You may cultivate inside the Spirit Pool for 8 hours", the massive doors began to open

Also available on Audible! After centuries of endless wars, the three greatest nations of the continent have come together in peace. As a symbol of their cooperation, they have worked together to establish the Grand Academy of Spiritual, Martial, and Arcane Arts, a place where the best and brightest of each nation can gather on neutral ground and share knowledge, techniques, and cultures. Can the peace truly last, or is the academy just another proxy for the constant conflicts the three nations face? None of that matters to Lee Jia, a homeless young girl who's biggest concern is surviving the winter. But when she accidentally stumbles into the academy in search of a new place to stay, her destiny is changed forever. Determined to carve out a new place for herself and make the most of her good fortune, Lee Jia dives head first into the world of magic and martial arts. Fates Parallel is my first serious attempt at writing a story, and a personal love letter to Eastern fantasy and xianxia stories. It's heavily inspired by East Asian culture, folklore, and mythology, with what is likely going to be a decidedly Western artistic license. I try to write every day, with a goal of about 45,000 words per month (~1500 per day). Chapter lengths are around 3000 words on average, releasing on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Cover art drawn by the incredibly talented Tsuu (TsurotArtistry).

Triquetra: A Multi-Class Isekai or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Accept the End of the Multiverse
Triquetra: An Multi-Class Isekei Adventure I know, I know, you have heard it all before. Yes I was hit by a truck. Yes I ended up in a Fantastical World suspiciously similar to one of my favorite RPG’s. Yes I had access to cheats no one else possessed. Yes it was a world of classes and levels and magic powers. Finally, yes I was an overweight middle-aged loser failing to live up to my potential. Given my eclectic reading habits I should have been better prepared. Unfortunately I was not. Sure I could multi-class with reduced penalties, but my starting class was Scholar! No combat abilities and very limited spellcasting. My HUD interface costs mana to use, and my universal translation seemed to be outsourced to Giggle Translate. I’m supposed to be an OP MC! Not a slice-o- life struggling to survive in the wilderness. Not to mention the Arch-Magus who summoned me, mistimed everything, I arrived 300 years too late, after the fall of the Empire I was supposed to save. The surviving remnants have devolved into Murder Hobos. What’s worse is that the Great Devourer, Ancient Calamity, and Spawn from the Void Beyond Time, Space, and Sanity is now aware of a new world to plunder, a world called Dirt! (Told you this translator sucks) Warning Extra Crunchy Authorial Vebosity! Lots of infodump in the early chapters, but I learn my lesson and it does get better, eventually. I do not own the Cover image, found it on a free image site.
