Chapter 33 Luck Goddess Club

1779 Words
Hanjiang City. At the center of the Changjiang River, the mother river of Walt Country, it was a central city with developed railway networks linking Hanjiang City to the rest of this country. As an ancient cultural city, it was also one of the most important cities in Walt Country. As night fell, the city was lit up. Li Ping'an stood by the grand river with the baggage on his back, looking at the prosperous city across the river and listening to waves breaking on the shore. Now, he was touched by this scene. "Only leaving Lanhai City, not confined to it, do I realize how big the world is." "Lanhai City is big, but it is less grand than Hanjiang City, especially in the sense of history." Tightly holding the information card that read "Li Daniu", Li Ping'an started missing Ms. Hong again. The sophisticated but silly woman secretly transferred one hundred million yuan to the bank account of Li Ping'an. And he didn't find it until he got off the train. But Li Ping'an was not haunted by it. It was because he understood that if he were to return this sum of money to Ms. Hong, she must be worried about him. As a seven-foot man, he was as generous as the grand river, so how could he be worried about the possibility that he would be unable to return debts of gratitude to Ms. Hong? "Ms. Hong, this time, I fled from Lanhai City like a miserable dog to avoid Liu Family and Wan Family, but don't worry. I will come back soon and make you the woman standing on top of the world." Li Ping'an threw his fist heavily in the direction of the river. After watching the river for an hour or so, Li Ping'an cooled down and sorted out his thoughts. Now he left away from the bank of the river and went to the city center across the river. He had found a lot of information about Hanjiang City on the train, so he knew where he should go to gather more news. Situated in the gorgeous and luxurious areas along the river in Hanjiang City, the Luck Goddess Club was as tranquil and elegant as royal gardens. Li Ping'an had placed his baggage in the hotel, so now he appeared at the gate of the club in a leisure and confident manner. "Sir, please show your information card." As the main commercial district along the river, Luck Goddess Club had strict security. Instead of guards, it was equipped with red-ray lights to caution those who wanted to break into this place. The hostess was young and beautiful. She respectfully served Li Ping'an, with a sweet smile. Also, she stood in the right place to stop Li Ping'an from intruding into the club. Li Ping'an knew her purpose, so he nodded to her and took out his information card. The information card was like the ID card in the peaceful period before the New Era. It contained much personal information and could be used as a bank card. But Li Ping'an got used to saving money with his bank card. "Thank you, sir. Wait a minute, please." The hostess picked up the card with her hands. She placed it on the card reader next to her. On it, there was a photo of and some information about Li Ping'an, so he shot a glance at them with interest. "Name, Li Daniu." "Age, 21." "Stage, a warrior in the Prospective Awakening Stage." "Job, free warrior." The other fake introductions about Li Ping'an revealed that he was rather strong. After seeing the information, the hostess paid more respect to Li Ping'an. As a 21-year-old person in the Prospective Awakening Stages, he was indeed a genius. She bowed and said, "Mr. Li, come this way, please. You can call me anytime if you need to help." "Ok." Li Ping'an casually nodded, and then he pretended to look at her in arrogance but accidentally saw her breast. Li Ping'an didn't take another look at it but went inside after fetching his information card. When he was in the empty corridor, he found that his back was filled with cold sweat. "Ms. Hong is reliable. Otherwise, I would run into trouble if the fake information card were discovered. So, I had better fix bugs of this card as soon as possible." But Li Ping'an didn't know that Ms. Hong had spent hundreds of millions of yuan forging this information card. Except for the core workers making this card, no one would find that it was fake. Warriors, especially adventurers, received dangerous and secretive tasks, so making fake information cards had already been a giant and complete business industry. It was not hard to complete the information, as long as someone paid service charges or handed over trophies. No fish could survive if the water was too clean. Everyone would have secrets, but those secrets possessed by a common person were not a threat to nations and big financial groups. They were powerful enough to control the whole world, so they didn't mind something trivial like this. When Li Ping'an walked into the club, he was ushered into a common hall by a beauty hostess. The big hall was thousands of square meters. It was hard to imagine its value in this golden district along the river. Therefore, it could be guessed that the owner of the Luck Goddess Club was pretty rich and powerful. The hall was busy. Most people dressed normally like Li Ping'an, drinking and chatting in groups. Li Ping'an didn't like beer, but he didn't want to be special, so he ordered a dozen of low-strength beers and a glass of juice mainly made of Nutrition Drop. And then he sat at an obscure corner. These drinks cost Li Ping'an about fifty thousand yuan, which made him feel sad. Fortunately, Ms. Hong had given him one hundred million yuan. Otherwise, it was hard for him to survive a long time only by his own 2 million yuan. He had experienced the Stage of Cleaning the Dirt because of the mysterious stone. Now, he had an acute hearing. He rejected the suggestion by the hostess that a woman would chat with him, so he slowly drank the beer mixed with Nutrition Drop and overheard the conversation around him. Meanwhile, he looked at the information about transactions and forming teams on the screen before him. "Hello, Mr. Wang, I heard that you had made a great deal in Longhu Mountain recently. Could you please let me look at the treasure discovered in the holy place of Daoism?" "Mr. Zhang, do you make fun of me? It's known that your business in Wudang Mountain is booming. The wolf you hunted a few days ago was acquired by Luck Goddess Club with a high price, right?" "Hey, buddies, do you hear that a wild swine with one horn is found in the bamboo forest in the Huangshan Mountain? The creature is fierce but pretty valuable. Many people are coming there to hunt it. What about catching it together?" "..." Li Ping'an was excited to hear this news. This was the life he longed for. He was eager to battle with fierce beasts to grow himself. If so, he could break his limit to be stronger and catch up with those powerful geniuses. However, he covered his thrilling, so apparently, he was peacefully drinking. Soon, he gathered much team information to which he was suitable. Also, he knew more and deeper about this job. The awakening powerhouse was a minority. It was impossible for him to join the rich teams whose members were all awakening powerhouses. In the other common Adventurers teams, there were mainly the awakening powerhouse and people in the Prospective Awakening Stage or in the late of the Refining Stage. Some members good at cooking were also popular in the team. After all, people of the Adventurers team often carried out tasks in the wild. The battle was the main part, but other living skills were indispensable. After acquiring the information, Li Ping'an felt a little relaxed. He thought that it would be hard to find a team if he was not in the Awakening Stage. When people graduated from the university, they didn't know much about society, so they were not confident about their future, somewhat worried about it. Li Ping'an would head for Tianzhou, a northwestern metropolis, from Hanjiang City tomorrow. After arriving there, he would go to Yanjing. His final stop was Taihang Mountain. He was eager to join a team to take a try, but he knew that it was not the right time, because as the saying proved, a watched pot never boiled. He needed more train and experience, as well as more news. He could make a decision after he could analyze the situation. Two hours passed quickly. Li Ping'an had drunk out a dozen of beers, so he became a little drunk. He acquired much information tonight and clearly knew what his future would be like. In a good mood, he was about to come back to the hotel for a rest. He had a long journey tomorrow. At this moment, a tall handsome young man with white hair strode here, followed by seven or eight doughty men. "Mr. Zhou." "Mr. Zhou." People who had originally drunk and chatted now rose to their feet to respectfully greet this white-haired young man. The white-haired young man nodded with a faint smile and directly walked over in the direction of Li Ping'an. "Mr. Zhou?" Li Ping'an was a little surprised. "Is the manner of calling someone in Gangdao? Is he from there?" Li Ping'an was unwilling to talk with Mr. Zhou because they were totally different, and it was impossible for them to have a chat. He remembered words by Mr. Wang, "If you could defeat someone, you could continue fighting with him and benefit from the battle. If not, you could surrender. After all, being alive is the most important." His words were rough but reasonable. If someone wanted to be respected by others like Mr. Zhou, he should be rich first. Li Ping'an got to his feet at once, like other people around him, greeting the white-haired young man with a smile, "Mr. Zhou." The young man had a pair of acute eyes. The lights were dim, but he caught the sight of Li Ping'an quickly. He originally sat at the table next to Li Ping'an, but when he saw Li Ping'an, his curiosity arose, "Hello, buddy. I didn't see you before. Are you new to Hanjiang City?"
