"What??! express delivery?!!"
"What is it?"
"What does express delivery mean?"
"No, I want to know how you can easily break through the Barrier?" Aragaki Nigaki stared in astonishment at the Delivery person in front of him, feeling a tumultuous wave of emotions inside. "With the sword of express delivery, everything will be delivered!"
"May I... may I ask if this is an express delivery? Which... which sect are you from?"
"Me? I have no sect, I am a wanderer. If you don't have any business with me, I'll be on my way. I still have over ten orders waiting for me to deliver."
The delivery person smiled, bowed, and in one fluid motion, leaped onto the long sword and disappeared into the air.
"I'll take a look first. Inside the package is a small wooden box containing a letter and an invitation. The invitation prominently displays four large characters - Qian Da Ji Yuan."
"Qian Da Ji Yuan? What is it for?" Xiao Yao stared curiously at the letter.
As the letter was opened, a surge of spiritual power burst out, coalescing in the air into the shape of a Tiao Dau.
"Hello! Aragaki! Long time no see!! Were you scared by the words 'express delivery' just now? Hahaha... cough cough..."
"Alright, back to the point! After being expelled from the sect, I gathered a dozen or so wandering cultivators to help the refugees displaced by the war. It went smoothly at first, but soon we found ourselves overwhelmed... After all, without the protection of a sect, even feeding ourselves was a problem, let alone having the time to help others."
"So I came up with a way to make money. I started a courier company. Did you have courier companies in your time? I recruited many wandering cultivator friends to deliver express deliveries on their flying swords! They get a commission for each delivery! By the way, we don't recruit disciples from Xianmen!"
"Then, with the money we earned, we helped the poor people, creating a virtuous cycle. Isn't it cool? Oh, by the way! I'm sending you this letter to let you know that, due to business needs, our Zhongzhou branch is about to open! The opening day is set for the tenth of next month."
"It's called a branch, but it's actually a headquarters that covers a lot of businesses - Qian Da Group! There's a lot to it, so I won't go into details in this message. I'll treat you well when you come!"
Except for Aragaki Nigaki, everyone else looked puzzled.
"What exactly is express delivery for?" Xiao Yao asked curiously.
"Um... you can think of it as a delivery service. For example, if you have something to be delivered to Shu Mountain but for some reason you can't go there yourself, then you can pay them to do it. It's something like that..."
"Oh, I see..."
"Brother Aragaki, shall we go to Zhongzhou?"
" Zhongzhou? Where is that?"
"Aragaki? Don't you recognize Kyushu? Da Yu divided the water into nine regions. Yuzhou is the Zhongzhou," explained Xiao Yao.
"Da Yu? Did he establish the Xia Dynasty?"
"Xia Dynasty - What is it? Da Yu exhausted himself after controlling the floods and perished. The world fell into chaos once again, and later Xianmen emerged in various regions... Xia Dynasty? I've never heard of it."
Aragaki Nigaki pondered for a moment and thought: "This alternate world has been different from the real world since Da Yu. There's no dynasty? Then what are their official authorities that they speak of?"
"So, what about us...?"
"Oh! Let him play by himself first. We need to go to Fu-Sang to set up the formation. The matters of the human and demon races are pressing."
"Boss, what should we do about Zhou She and Liu Yilong? Zhou She keeps wanting to escape, and we can't get rid of Liu Yilong! These two humans are really something!"
An imp rushed anxiously to Tushan Lang's side.
Tushan Lang frowned, "Boss! The hanging garden and the Cloud Pavilion have issued a kill order for you because of the Emei matter! Be careful when you go to the Cloud Pavilion!"
"Let them be. I just want to quickly resolve the formation issue now."
After two days of rest, everyone bid farewell to the siblings Tushan and headed southeast on their swords.
I encountered more than ten "Sword Express Delivery" couriers along the way. They were incredibly fast, never stopping. Each sword handle was tied with a large number of packages, and they crisscrossed back and forth in an endless stream. Sometimes there were over a hundred people coming and going in a single day. There were so many that Aragaki Nigaki had to stop and wait for them to fly past before continuing, for fear of a mid-air collision.
Looking at the busy scene in front of her, Aragaki Nigaki felt as if she had returned to the real world. After some time, a range of mountains appeared faintly in the distance. The peak was hidden in the clouds, only the mid-slope surrounded by swirling clouds could be seen. "We're here! This is Xiandu Mountain, and the peak is where Yunqi Temple is located. Below is the largest town in Yangzhou - Xiandu City," Xiao Yao said.
"You...slow down a bit!" Ke Lingfei tightly hugged Xiao Yao, her voice trembling.
"Hold on to me!"
As soon as the words fell, they suddenly plunged downward, scaring Ke Lingfei into screaming.
"Wow... wow..."
At the town gate, Ke Lingfei bent over, clutching the wall as if about to vomit bile.
She gave Xiao Yao a glare, "Are you... doing this on purpose...? Wow... ugh..."
"You're too delicate. Can't you handle this?"
"Don't talk nonsense! You're doing this on purpose... Wah—!!"
A passing Yellow Robed Taoist stepped forward, "Miss, what's wrong? Do you need help?"
Aragaki Nigaki took a quick glance and immediately perked up. The Taoist's attire was almost identical to that of the Delivery person, except for the wooden badge pinned to his chest. "Immortal Arts Guild?"
"Yes! This is our latest service at Qian Da Ji Yuan! The Immortal Arts Gang! As long as you pay and don't break the law, we'll do anything!" said Yellow Robed Taoist with a smile.
"Qian Da Ji Yuan? Wow... one is an express delivery, the other is a jack-of-all-trades shop? What is Brother Dau researching all day..."
"Do you know our CEO?"
"CEO?! How do you know that title?!"
" Mr.Dau told us to call him that, saying it means the boss."
"Well, well... Aren't you guys in Zhongzhou?"
Xiao Yao patted Ke Lingfei's back and said, "Do you also have separate courtyards here?"
The Taoist looked puzzled, "Separate courtyards? Our Qian Da Ji Yuan headquarters is in Xiandu City! The one in Zhongzhou is the branch."
"So Tiao Dau is also here?"
" Mr.Dau is here, but he's in seclusion. He said he's researching more profitable businesses. Do you want to help?" Taoist seemed a bit impatient.
"Yes! Yes!" Xiao Yao hurried over, "I want to see what you guys are capable of! Here, will five taels of silver be enough?"
Taoist took the silver with a happy face, "Thank you very much!"
"Hmm? What are you doing?" Taoist stepped forward, pinching Ke Lingfei's Hegu acupoint on the palm, while his other hand reached towards the abdomen.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" Xiao Yao scolded him for his ill intentions.
"Treat the illness! What should I do... help the girl up..." Xiao Yao stared at Taoist without turning his eyes away, and then propped Ke Lingfei against his shoulder. The Taoist joined his fingers and swiftly pressed the Zhongwan acupoint in her lower abdomen, sending a gentle and warm spiritual energy into Ke Lingfei's body, bringing indescribable comfort and relief.
"How are you feeling? Better now, right?"
Ke Lingfei nodded, "Yes, much better... um..."
"Oh? You guys really know a lot."
"That's natural! Our Taoist sect has many businesses that benefit the people. Just now, that was only the simplest form of medical treatment," boasted the Taoist.
Aragaki Nigaki took out a gold ingot and handed it over, "Enough talk, let's get down to business. I want to see your president. Tell him that Aragaki Nigaki wants to see him."
