Chapter 790 The Division of Nine Dwellings (2/2)
“Senior sister Ye has nine Divine Dwellings?” Zhou Yuan asked. Earlier, because Ye Bingling and Yi Qiushui chatted very happily, she had told them to call her senior sister to show their closeness.
“Chen Beifeng and I both have nine Divine Dwellings, but they can only be regarded as nine lower dwellings.” Ye Bingling nodded.
“Nine lower dwellings?” Zhou Yuan was taken aback at first. There were differences in Divine Dwellings? He had never heard of that when he was in Cangxuan Heaven.
Ye Bingling glanced at him with a little surprise. “The divisions of nine Divine Dwellings are ranked as upper, middle and lower grade. I was able to develop nine Divine Dwellings, but it was only a fluke, so my nine Divine Dwellings can only be considered as lower dwellings. They are not as strong as those of the middle and upper grade.”
Zhou Yuan secretly smiled bitterly. Hunyuan Heaven was really enviable. Since even the nine Divine Dwellings were classified so meticulously, there had to be many heaven prides with nine Divine Dwellings for them to come up with such a grading system.
But in Cangxuan Heaven, as long as you opened up nine Divine Dwellings, you would be considered a super heaven pride. Who cared about the upper or lower grade?
Of course, the higher the Divine Dwelling graded, the greater the potential. But when it came to the future, if those with lower-grade Divine Dwellings were resilient, they might not necessarily be weaker.
“Nine lower dwellings are still nine Divine Dwellings, and are much stronger than my eight Divine Dwellings. Is senior sister Ye trying to laugh at me in a roundabout way?” Yi Qiushui smiled faintly.
Ye Bingling said embarrassed, “I didn’t mean that.”
It could be seen that, even though Ye Bingling had a cold and distant personality, she wasn’t as tactful as Yi Qiushui. However, this also made a lot of sense given how Yi Qiushui had managed the entire Yi clan.
And while they were talking, a huge mirror-like lake appeared in their eyes. In the middle of the lake was a blue pavilion. Streams of people were passing by the pavilion, and it seemed particularly lively.
“This is Wind Island’s general affairs building. It’s where you get paid and pick up your assignments every month.”
Ye Bingling led the two across the lake’s stone bridge, into the building and to the counter. Behind the counter was an old man half asleep. “Old Wang, this is the new deputy pavilion master. He came to collect his identity token and salary,” she said respectfully.
The old man, known as Old Wang, rubbed his eyes. He studied Zhou Yuan closely and grinned, “It is said that he was personally appointed by Lady Chi Jing?”
He flung his robe and several items appeared on the counter.
Ye Bingling took one of the golden tokens that were each engraved with a simple ‘wind’ character and ancient patterns on the sides.
“This is your deputy pavilion master token. There is a storm barrier outside of Wind Island. You won’t need elder Yi Yan to escort you in the future. With this token, you can safely enter and exit the island.” She handed the token to Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan hurriedly received the token, which vaguely pulsed with waves of Genesis Qi.
“And that’s your salary for this month. Deputy pavilion masters receive a total of two hundred and fifty high-grade Divine Dwelling medicines.” Ye Bingling then took another small spatial bag.
“Two hundred and fifty high-grade Divine Dwelling medicines?!” Zhou Yuan exclaimed, his eyes lighting up with joy. He didn’t expect a Wind Pavilion deputy pavilion master would be treated so well and could receive so much Divine Dwelling medicines in one month.
This was much more than the Yi clan’s reward!
Ye Bingling shook her head when she saw Zhou Yuan’s delighted look. She passed over another pile of coin-like objects and remarked, “Although Divine Dwelling medicines are good to have, the countless young heaven prides in the Tianyuan Region did not join the four pavilions for these Divine Dwelling medicines.
“It’s for these.”
She lifted her beautiful hand to reveal round coins that appeared to be made of transparent crystal.
Looking at the cute little objects in her hand, even she, who was always cold and distant, revealed a slight smile.
“What is that?” Zhou Yuan was incomparably curious. What could be more attractive than Divine Dwelling medicine?
Ye Bingling flicked her finger. A crystal coin made a crisp sound and then drew a bright arc in midair before reaching Zhou Yuan.
