"Turns out relationships are really important now," Cat Nini sighed deeply. "I usually don't go out much, so I don't understand this stuff. Sigh... I definitely don't have such an impressive brother-in-law... this..."
Chu Yang's face darkened, speechless.
I came here looking for a guide, thinking I was clutching onto a strong thigh, but who would have thought it would be such a bookworm... If I had known, I might as well have sold him to the Wolf Clan, I could have exchanged him for some pocket money and then casually hired a werewolf, which would definitely be better than this guy, regret fills my heart...
The two had no choice but to shift a bit and wait across the street for the population management office to open.
...
However, that so-called 'ID card' was indeed not difficult to obtain.
As soon as Chu Yang mentioned it, the staff immediately processed the paperwork. Since he had no money, he took out five hundred Amethyst, treating it as the fee for the ID.
Using Amethyst as payment was not new; people who had just ascended usually didn’t carry local currency, but Amethyst was definitely available. However, using it for this seemed like a loss.
"State your name."
Chu Yang said dryly to a strange round orb, "Chu Yang."
A haze enveloped him, and Chu Yang felt a chilling sensation before the process completed.
The legendary "ID card" was finally in hand.
After inputting spiritual energy, he saw a face that looked as mournful as a crying ghost appear; it was none other than Chu Imperial Seat, followed by a weak voice saying, "Chu Yang!"
That tone and attitude were as if the person had been through a grueling ordeal a hundred times...
The legendary "ID card" is supposed to last a lifetime!
Thus, this also became the lifelong mark of Chu Imperial Seat.
For this reason, Chu Imperial Seat regretted it for a good part of his life...
Until the end of time...
...
Walking down the street, Chu Yang finally had a subtle feeling of ‘transitioning from darkness to light.’
Cat Nini followed closely beside him. Although he no longer sported the previous scruffy beard, he still hadn't returned to his original feline clan attire. Here, they were still far from breaking free from danger.
The two walked in silence, unable to speak; it took energy to talk. After all this commotion, they were already hungry, and any breath spared was precious.
After a long moment of silence, one person finally couldn’t help but speak—
"I never expected that Nine Heavens Pavilion would be so hard to survive in!" Chu Yang rubbed his belly, looking at Cat Nini, suddenly feeling a surge of anger. "You say you're a dignified heavenly level expert, yet you're struggling so pitifully, with not a penny to your name."
Cat Nini's face flushed red. "I never carry money; I always rely on those who come out with me to bring it..."
Suddenly feeling dejected, he continued, "It's just a pity... they have already..."
As he spoke, his eyes reddened.
"Hey, don’t be sad. We should think about how to make money for food right now," Chu Yang realized that in this Nine Heavens Pavilion, what was truly most important was not heavenly materials and earthly treasures or divine weapons!
It was money!
Money that could guarantee you enough to eat and a place to rest!
Without money, it truly was difficult to move an inch!
And what was most disheartening was that money here was merely the most ordinary things made from purple copper. Aside from representing purchasing power, it had no other function...
Chu Yang sighed inwardly. He had intended to release Tie Butian and the others from the nine calamity space right after ascending, but seeing how he was struggling like a beggar, he could barely support himself, let alone take them in...
Help me!—these words were Chu Yang's most sincere voice in his heart at this moment!
So... he decided to wait.
A man's dignity is something he cannot afford to lose...
"Right, right. Making money is the serious matter. Once I earn money, I’ll go find Cao Yueguan to discuss arithmetic topics..." Cat Teacher also realized that it was manageable without anything, but impossible without money! At this point, money was omnipotent!
