Chapter 1962 Battle Power
"I had thought the same," Alex replied. "What are you doing here? Did you need something?"
"No, just checking," she said. "So, have you made any plans where to go?"
Alex narrowed his eyes. "You want to follow me?" he asked. "I thought you would have made your own decision on where to go next."
"No, I told you I have no idea what to do. So I\'ll be following you," she said.
Alex did not want to have someone else following him, but he also understood that he needed her help to go around this world for now. "May I ask why me exactly? Is it just because we left together?" he asked.
"That, and the fact that you are quite special for some reason," she said with a mysterious smile on her face.
"Special? In what way may I ask?"
The woman looked around, before pushing Alex inside his room and shutting the door. "Alright, here\'s the thing. You are an incredible alchemist, that much I know."
"My pills have around 80% harmony. I am far from incredible," Alex said.
Fang Yuxie gave a puzzled look. "If 80% isn\'t supposed to be incredible, then what is?" she asked. She was genuinely confused.
Alex realized his mistake. He had assumed that just because she was a first-ranking disciple of the sect, she was treated to the much better pills, but maybe she was not.
"80% is expected of any alchemist that wants to make it big," Alex said.
"Yeah, but you\'re only a new Immortal. You have ages to improve," she said. "And besides, that is not the only reason."
"Oh! What else?" Alex asked.
"Well, there\'s the fact that you have a special body, but that\'s not really it. What makes me think you are special is the fact that you have a very high Battle Power."
Alex frowned slightly. "Battle Power?" he asked. He wondered if it was what he was thinking it was.
"You know? You can skip realms. You were stopping my attacks even with your weak cultivation base. That\'s an incredible feat. Tell me, what is your Battle Power exactly?" she asked.
Alex didn\'t answer immediately. "Would you mind telling me what a normal Battle Power is considered in this world?"
"Hmm, that depends from person to person, but I believe if you have more than 2, you are considered special," she said. "Although that sort of thing might not be so special in the bigger sects. You would need a battle power of 3 or 4 to stand out there."
"I see, thanks," Alex said.
"So… you\'re not going to tell me what yours is?" she asked. "Or do I just have to guess?"
"It\'s… more than 4," Alex answered.
The woman gave a doubtful look. "You destroyed my attacks. That doesn\'t sound right at all."
"You don\'t believe that it is more than 4?" Alex asked.
"No, it has to be more than 4, but—"
"There you go. It\'s more than 4," Alex said. "Anyway, if you wish to follow me still, we\'re going to the Blue Silk sect in the next few days. I\'m going to take their entrance test. It\'s a good thing they do it all the time."
"You\'re really going to take that test?" she asked. "You\'ll fail surely."
"I\'m sure I\'ll fail," he answered. "I\'m still taking it just in case that I do pass somehow."
Fang Yuxie thought for a bit. "I think you should wait for at least a few years. At least let the fallout from our sect disappear a little. Otherwise, you will be refused right out the gate."
Alex thought for a moment and frowned. "Then I suppose we are going to the Newsky City next," he said.
"Ooh, what\'s in Newsky City?" Fang Yuxie asked.
"Nothing as of yet," Alex said. "But I hope to build something there."
Fang Yuxie mused to herself. "Alright, I\'ll look forward to whatever you do. When do we leave? A month from now? Two months? How long do you need to cultivate?"
Alex looked at the woman, trying to discern if she was joking. "Why would we take that long?" he asked. "How old are you exactly?"
"You think that\'s too long?" she asked. "It\'s just a few months. Just enough time to cultivate and leave."
Alex shook his head. "We leave in 2 days. I plan to look around the city today and tomorrow, and we can leave the day after."
Fang Yuxie shrugged. "Okay, we should book a teleportation trip to the city today. I don\'t know if there are even any slots to be found for the day after tomorrow," she mused.
"We\'ll be flying there. We won\'t be using the teleportation formations," Alex said. "I intend to enjoy the landscapes of the Newsky City."
Fang Yuxie immediately shook her head. "You do not want to fly all the way there, especially with just the two of us. The path to Newsky City should be long, and we will definitely killed and looted if we fly there."
Alex was taken aback. "Killed?" he asked. "Who would kill us?"
"Bandits, beasts, and any person who might be interested in that ship of yours. We are weak and we would look like easy targets. You definitely don\'t want to take a long trip through the continent on your own."
"Oh… I wasn\'t aware of that," Alex said softly. "I see. Then we have to book ourselves a teleportation spot. Let\'s go do it now."
The two left the courtyard and made their way to the building that housed the many teleportation formations that went around the entire continent.
Unfortunately, it didn\'t seem as though there was a direct teleport possible to the Newsky City, but they could book themselves another teleport from the next city they would be visiting from right here."
It cost Alex and Fang Yuxie a total of 400 spirit stones to take the teleportation formation.
Alex learned that the formation was actually supposed to cost more, but was made cheap by the Blue Silk sect who owned it.
After the booking was done, Alex and Fang Yuxie went around the city for the next two days, visiting any and all spots they could where they didn\'t have to spend the most time.
Since the city was built right next to a cliff that went down into the ocean, many exotic aquatic dishes could only be found readily in this city. Alex visited many restaurants to try those out.
For similar reasons, aquatic ingredients were also quite cheap in this place, and as a result, Alex bought many in bulk.
He searched around to see if he could buy blood, but it didn\'t appear as though he could. He could request it, but that would take a long time, and the blood he got would be mostly from weaker beasts.
There was no point in doing that.
After touring the city to his heart\'s content, Alex and Fang Yuxie were ready to leave.
They teleported from the Sunlight City to Backriver City, and from there finally to the Newsky City.
