Chapter 98: Chapter 94: The Change of Star Pavilion (Seeking First Subscription-)

Translator: 549690339

The world consists of Yin and Yang energies, which constantly clash and intertwine. When Yang energy prevails, it brings abundant prosperity. But if Yin prevails, malevolent spirits, phantoms, poisonous moons, and plagues tend to breed rampantly amidst extreme heat.

The month of May brings the cacophony of cicadas and the arrival of the Evil Month.

Xiling City was built along a river. Each year during the Evil Month, the city experiences extreme heat and heavy rain, and sometimes a sudden cold wave. Therefore, each May, the people of Xiling abstain from marriages, construction, moving house, and shipbuilding.

Matchmakers, construction workers, laborers, and shipyard artisans all take a long break every May, taking a full month off work to avoid the Evil Month.

With no ships to build or repair, many dock laborers find themselves jobless and loiter around the streets.

The western part of Xiling City is such a mixed bag of people. Each year in May, loiterers are as prevalent on the streets as the cicadas on the trees.

With nothing to do, they tend to gather under tree shades to gamble, brag, or watch the world go by. Thanks to several hundred years of peace in Xiling, low grain prices ensure that even the laziest among them can afford a year’s food with just a month’s salary.

While the Evil Month affects many industries in Xiling, operations at the Star Pavilion subsist as usual.

Having been the manager of the Star Pavilion for half a year, Hua Ji still isn’t quite sure about the true purpose of the place. All he does each day is allow several warriors to train inside and then leave.

Out of curiosity, Hua Ji once carefully examined the star stones, but besides their intricate textures, he couldn’t find anything peculiar.

Over time, Hua Ji surmised that the Star Pavilion might just be a place that Tang Luo uses to do good deeds.

After all, practicing a set of training routines for thirty-six cycles through the sky could earn a warrior of the Mortal Realm ten gold coins. In the impoverished area of West City, work opportunities as lucrative as this were hard to come by.

Plus, Tang Luo had set a rule in the Star Pavilion that a person could only enter the training room once every three days. This rule strengthened Hua Ji’s belief that Tang Luo did not intend to make a profit through the Star Pavilion but merely to do good deeds.
