"Congratulations on your breakthrough to the ninth stage of the crystalline core realm, young master Zhao!"
An excited voice echoed from a private room in one of the most expensive taverns in the entire red light district of White Peak City.
The owner of the voice prostrated himself to a tall, handsome man with broad shoulders, short golden hair and a sharp face.
He was Zhao Yulei, son of the grand elder of one of the seven great families and one of the thousand most talented young people among the entire younger generation of the nine peaks basin.
He was sitting on a large couch with two prostitutes in his arms.
"No need to be so polite, Brother Gurye, we've known each other too long to treat each other like this!" Yulei laughed honestly as he waved Gurye over to sit next to him.
"Thank you, Brother Yulei." Gurye returned the smile before sitting down.
"Tell me, brother, what brings you here? How are the mines?" Yulei asked, taking a long sip from his glass of liquor.
