After leaving the place from where The Core Elemental Throne was previously at, Yun Beishang used a scroll to directly go back to the Main City. He first wanted to test out things, see how it was with him in the city which he more or less became a semi-fugitive last time and that he also suspiciously disappeared from right after.
Of course, taking into consideration of the fact that groups of leader-type NPCs do can hear the system's big announcements, everyone especially the global ones; as the Regional and local ones should be the same as with the players. Then, it was more than obvious that he would probably be seen in a non-hostile way again, or at least without too much hostility. After all, those guard did indeed behave like absolute robots whenever the city lord's new orders went out that day.
Still, they should be pretty much occupied with the portals that have appeared way beyond the actual territory of the Azure Dragon Sub-Division which would grant him a little bit of confidence on not being ganged upon by hundreds of thousands of what would be consisting of soldiers and guards. Possibly Star Elites to even Enlightened beings, and as for their levels... If possible, Yun Beishang was good with not knowing it first-handedly.
And indeed, he wasn't over-swarmed by countless armored NPCs as soon as he went back to the place where all players would either resuscitate and or teleport back from anywhere.
. . .
Azure Dragon Sub-Division, central plaza of the Main City.
Tshin~!
"Oh, you don't have the Magical materials? Are you serious..."
"I'm selling Luxurious food for 50,000 gold coins! It can give you MP+1% of your current MP permanently!"
"Eviscerate League recruiting fellow comrades for the next upgrading!"
"Imperishable Guild is also recruiting fellow comrades, if you're also joining our beloved brotherhood with the Eviscerate League, we'll keep you until they've expanded long enough..."
"Knights of Raoundozia are looking for equipment of all grades from LV30 to LV99!"
"Oh, another appeared... huh? What's with that armor? So strange..."
"Mm, that reminds me of Tongqiu, the one who's level has stagnated at 59 to only reach LV61 for almost 6 months now, remember?"
"Eh... that IS Tongqiu!!"
"Tongqiu? Where?!"
"Wait, the same that is also helping the Demons?"
"Hey, do you think that if we kill the one he hides we'll get nice rewards?"
"Oh! And that little girl..."
As soon as Yun Beishang made his ever so eye-catching appearance with his new Petals of Destruction Armor Set, one or two players that were able to guess wildly were enough, to incite a commotion.
Yet, Yun Beishang ignored them as he himself became attracted to the notice from the Knights of Raoundozia. After hearing a little from that spokesperson and that the Knights of Raoundozia were looking for someone or any Union to sell them vast amounts of equipment from any grade, he immediately right after went towards the Marketing Area of the city, intending to get rid of all his trash and possibly even get a few things done.
In his bag, Yun Beishang looked at the Lordship Token that Miriam had given him after their last little farewell hug.
[Lordship Token]: Type: Special Item, Properties: Use it on a council within a Sub-Division's Main City at the very least to found an Association; extra payment is needed to be recognized in the entirety of Main Kingdom.
Yun Beishang had already thought 'Yunalesca' to be strong enough for her to not be scared of facing a super BOSS being, along with him. Besides, that time when he first saw her in the game and helped him those two Star Elite bulls, yup, she's always been so strong; even before he was so.
. . .
Arriving at the Marketing Area, Yun Beishang immediately went into looking for the Raoundozia who he exchanged a little tiny bit of gold long time ago, about that of 8 months ago.
Tongqiu: "I have equipment, a lot. I want 100 gold for each piece of LV30 Useless grade equipment; and a gold coins+100 for each 10 levels of difference. I have around 890 LV80..."
In total, Yun Beishang had 22600 Useless equipment of all kinds and, if going according to his pricing, he would be receiving a total 5,722,700 gold coins.
Similarly, Yun Beishang expected Raoundozia to take his time and responding and he would use that time to finally assert all of his current changes and to elaborate in them even farther before going to levelling nonstop until LV70 or LV80 which would be even better, for then go in a journey towards the investigation all around the sacred beast protectors of the Myriad Beast Division; starting with the Azure Dragon Sub-Division's. Namely, the Azure Dragon itself. Of course, if that could trigger a better treatment and 'forgetting' of past misconceptions, it would be even better.
Yet, he received a message from Raoundozia a few moments later, it seemed as that he was already waiting at the Marketing Area already. Whether it was a coincidence from Yun Beishang's previous time at just appearing on public once again or because this matter was of utter importance for himself didn't matter, as long as he could sell his stuff and buy back some lots of materials which he would importantly need in quite a bit; then he was fine with being used in this silly manner.
Raoundozia: "Okay, your pricing is high, but no one dares to say that they can create equipment above LV50 and of a good quality. Please send them, and thank you for your contribution."
Yun Beishang smiled, if it was so simple then, why not doing it twice?
Tongqiu: "Okay, now about the Common, Valuable, Powerful and even Magical grades. I also have from LV30 up to LV80. Wanna discuss the pricing?"
Raoundozia: "Are you serious? How much Magical grade ones you have? I'm not even sure if I can buy them with your price."
Tongqiu: "Relax, I'll sell you 11 sets. I hear that you have around two dozen of good people on your every command in your Association? Maybe we can discuss some other things in the future, for now; the pricing of LV30 Common grade equipment is of 175 gold... Valuable grade equipment is of 250 gold..."
Finally, Yun Beishang began to lay down the prices for grades after kindly ignoring the easy trap from Raoundozia's traps. He couldn't allow Raoundozia to get too cocky, Yun Beishang was only selling to him because they traded before and that money helped Yun Beishang a lot when cleaning that mountain range out of bandits completely; a true extermination special quest. From the Common grade equipment alone, Yun Beishang could get 10,014,725 if there was no haggling from Raoundozia's part; and 14,306,750 from Valuable grade equipment.
Tongqiu: "Then, Powerful grade equipment LV30 will be sold for 500 gold each piece..."
Once again, without haggling on the prices of the Powerful grade equipment, in total; it would be about 28,613,500 gold coins directly to Yun Beishang's pocket. Easy, and welcome money indeed.
Raoundozia: "What about the Magical grade sets? Are they really sets? How much for them?"
Tongqiu: "Yup, they are sets and they are all 'tailor suit'. Meaning, those sets' stats can go according to the player who open the package in which they are contained. I won't deliberate on how I probably the only one who can make them but, you should know how important it is for such a thing to exist."
Indeed, after reading Tongqiu's message, Raoundozia became befuddled. He was hooked, badly, and he would pay for it too; lots.
Raoundozia: "1,000,000 gold coins for each, what do you think?"
Yun Beishang: ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
Tongqiu: "Okay! I'll send it all to you right now. If you have something you'd like to say, say it now then."
A little after accepting such a pie falling from the sky, and after trading off all the equipment that could no longer even bring him any re-usable item, Yun Beishang received a total of 58,657,675 gold coins for all the equipment except the Magical grade sets. Yun Beishang sold all his stuff by sections; first the Useless grade equipment, then the Common grade equipment, then the Valuable grade equipment and finally the Powerful grade equipment.
After selling off those in batches differentiated by grade, Yun Beishang then sold each Magical grade set one by one, 1,000,000 each. At the end of the entire transaction in which they both had to ensure confirmation from both parties; Yun Beishang was taxed 5% of everything as he ended up gaining a whopping 66,174,792 gold coins. Money baby!
Now, Yun Beishang's current total of gold coins amount became that of 72,309,162.
Right after, Tongqiu was messaged by a probably almost poor Raoundozia.
Raoundozia: "Tongqiu, I see you still have no Association. Why don't you join Knights of Raoundozia? If you want to, we'll treat you extremely well, already becoming a team leader as soon as you join in. Only someone with skills and equipment like you could ever be so important."
Tongqiu: "Nah, bye."
Raoundozia: "A pleasure making business with you, I'll contact you again. As soon as we have money to spend of course."
Yun Beishang ignored the last message that came from Raoundozia's disappointment and speechlessness from this... bizarre trade, that even Raoundozia felt as if he was being pushed items from his left and right non-stop from a rich guy who treated them as shit. Who in their right mind would sell so much equipment to anyone, without being from an Association or trying to attract said Association? Was he really just that needy of money? What the hell.
. . .
Coming out of the Marketing Area, Yun Beishang saw quite a few dozen guards be on high alert as they watched him. They weren't there before so, most likely than not, they were there for him. But as of now, it seemed that their duty only went as far as to follow him and keep him under their eye, not to assault. Meh, it was somewhat alright. As long as they didn't went overboard on some matters... it wouldn't annoy Yun Beishang to be monitored like this in the slightest.
'Alright, sigh. Time to check up those events I've heard about so much. Mn, too many eyes.' Though Tongqiu was already know to be able to 'hide' people in somewhere or something, he didn't wanted to totally freely expose the fact that he could also hide himself.
As such, Yun Beishang moved towards the nearest exist, went out after some sweating and trembling guards let him go without asking him something. Which made Yun Beishang very pleasant indeed.
After he left... the guards positioned at the entrance, which were less than before, were now breathing like normal human beings that could make sense of their own lives and duties without appearing to be about to die from a heart attack.

"Do-did you see that?" A guard fearfully asked another.
"Ye-yeah... that monster." Responded another nearby guard.
"That monster killed a Mythical being, our own city lord told us, never to mess with him until the reinforcements from the other Sub-Divisions arrive. Phoow~, he must be put down before he can grow. No 'Journeyer' should be able to grow this strong, our city lord is wise..."
"Our city lord is wise!"
"Our city lord is wise!"
"For Azure Dragon Sub-Division!"
"For Main Kingdom!"
"Hahahahahaha..."
. . .
On a random location to the west of the Azure Dragon Sub-Division. As Yun Beishang was already in his own White Space and checking his system's logs.
"Hmmm, what do you- ah, they kicked around, hehehe~... Ehem, what do you think our husband is doing?"
"Mmm, I don't know? It must be a 'Journeyer' thingy or so, woah, are they really that big already? Wah, even your breasts grew a little, Tonkia~."
Tonkia merely joyfully giggled uncontrollably to the teasing from Irllytia, whose belly was tremendously smaller than Tonkia's. Tonkia had indeed a much shorter build, with her being a little woman of around 1.65 meters tall, even after having gained so much power and even going past mortality. While Irllytia was very, very slim and delicate looking, she was taller than Tonkia as well as more easy for Yun Beishang to want to pin her down wherever possible and to talk to her about life for good hours. Which was simply easier to understand that Irllytia liked being dominated so much, by Tonkia and Zyv even when they play with Yun Beishang but especially by Yun Beishang himself; their husband.
In any case, as the two preggo women giggled and teased each other endlessly; Tornyllia was softly speaking towards the little Demon girl, Rasa.
"Little Rasa, this is a spell for making food smaller. It's permanent so, if you find something you like a loooot but you're afraid that you'll grow fat, you can use this spell to eat lots of it! Don't worry, instead of becoming slightly tasteless like other spells, my modified version makes the taste even more intense!" She spoke softly and her gaze was tranquil, but the glint on her light blue oceanic eyes was ever so fervent and adoring.
"Tehee~, bah bah, mmm... Auntie... Torny-llia!" Meanwhile, the little Demon girl Rasa was uttering words with difficulty. Most Demons were raised to learn all languages for better survival purposes, but Rasa was way too little at the time she already ran away. While Rasa was mentally exhausted from trying magic, physical combat or practicing her unbelievable hiding skills, Tornyllia would teach the little thing about the general Main Kingdom's language.
After being 'kidnapped' kindly by a sinner such as Tongqiu and by these beautiful, fat aunties; Rasa only got close to the fat aunties and the blue-haired auntie, while her disposition against Tongqiu remained.
Meanwhile, the poor, poor innocent man was swiftly looking through his own changes; mainly from his class.

*PING*...due to host's immeasurable amount of Mental Power, Intent and Heart Connection as well as being eternally linked, in a bond, with host's pet 'Rosey', skill [Supreme Last Stand] has been created.
'Ho.Ly.Fuck.' Holy fuck indeed, who would've thought such an impossible to think of- change would occur? No wonder he was hospitalized for so long... Wait! Hospitalized? For this? That just-makes-no-sense... at all.
In any case, his main attribute stats were now doubled in terms of growth, more than that actually. And though the rest of the stats that could still be increased by items and potions and any other effect didn't change in the slightest, the raw Physical and Magical Power and Defense did; and double at that. If that wasn't enough, Mental Power now gave Tongqiu 2 extra points every level, now receiving 3 each level. While his two new hidden stats were similarly added to his 'per level' description.
Before taking a look to his newly advanced non-class-related skills, Yun Beishang first took a look to his very own status window.

Then, while holding his entire being from growing too elated, Yun Beishang calmed himself and closed his eyes. Not even half a second later, he received that familiar system's notification.
*PING*...host's current Mental Power is of 4,620, Intent is of 620 and Heart Connection is of 342; stolen Essence is 870.
"Mother...fucker..." Yun Beishang's beautiful words echoed through the entire White Space, at the mention of these, he event felt the almost nonexistent voice within the White Space tremble in disbelief while the other three women laughed it off and the little Rasa simply went 'what is that?'.
'Phew, that is... rather a lot. Maybe too much? Katia didn't lie... it is impossible for there to be another like me in the entire game. I may already be a threat to any NPC now... even those Legendary graded NPCs ones... hmm~...' As devious imaginations, wild desires and unknown sentiments invaded the ambition-less Yun Beishang, he checked the rest of the system's log before anything else.
*PING*...you've successfully killed a Mythical grade BOSS, 'Harlofk, the Hopeful', as a reward, SP+43,000 and Fame+43,000.

...
Let It Rain's Note: Yes, there was a huge time skip from update 1 to update 2. But, this isn't about the game's flow but Yun Beishang's path. So, although there is billions of players already acclimatized at the changes and the MC isn't, what is important here is how Yun Beishang moves and not how he was supposed to do as other players. I'm pretty sure is really well known by now that, our MC isn't a simple player, right?
