At the Longxuan Empire’s border, Shen Yanxiao had a clear view of the area enveloped by darkness.
The Forsaken Land.
It was the largest restricted area in the Brilliance Continent, and it had been a base camp for the demon race and a paradise for the demons who lived there.
One look from a distance, and Shen Yanxiao could already feel some gruesome senses from that land.
The entire Forsaken Land was under a dark cloud. The warriors at the border said that the dark cloud had covered the Forsaken Land for over a thousand years. It seemed that it had not dispersed since the demon race lost the war.
The Forsaken Land could never see the sun nor the sky as long as the dark cloud covered it. Many plants had withered. The ones that could live in the Forsaken Land were not the usual kind.
Many of such plants were initially from underground.
Shen Yanxiao handed the relevant paperwork to the garrison at the border. One would require special permission to enter the land. The regiment would not allow one’s entry otherwise.
When Shen Yanxiao went through the process, the officer in charge looked at Shen Yanxiao with surprise. Her beauty, age, and the order slip that she had shocked him.
He immediately knew who she was.
The warlock who had won the Inter-academy Tournament.
The next second, the smile on the officer’s vanished without a trace. He looked at Shen Yanxiao with disgust. Impatiently, he finished the paperwork quickly and threw the pass to Shen Yanxiao. Then, he left without turning back as if Shen Yanxiao carried some horrible disease.
Shen Yanxiao did not mind him. She was not so stupid to anticipate that people in the Brilliance Continent would accept warlocks within such a short time.
It seemed like she would have long days in front of her.
At the border, Shen Yanxiao noticed her team stood in front of the Forsaken Land; the Longxuan Empire was behind them. They looked at their surrounding area.
“Sister, is there where we are going?” Lan Fengli turned around and asked Shen Yanxiao as he pointed to the darker area.
His acute perception had enabled him to sense danger there.
Shen Yanxiao nodded and asked with a smile, “Xiao Feng, are you scared?”
Lan Fengli shook his head and answered resolutely, “I am not afraid as long as I am with my sister.”
Shen Yanxiao smiled. She saw the others look at her with determination. They might be unsettled or worried. However, as they had chosen to stand here, they had shown their resolution.
“Let’s go.” Shen Yanxiao no longer hesitated. She climbed onto the carriage.
Nobody could understand how thrilled and pleased she was at that moment. That restricted area was where she could undo her seal.
She would explore it even if it were a dangerous place!
The 120 people boarded the carriages one after another.
The wheels began to turn as it carried people in the carriage to the unknown realm.
They were further and further away from the border and inched closer toward the restricted area.
They were under the dark cloud.
A legend had quietly unveiled.
None of them knew that the adventure would let them experience the establishment of the ‘city of demons’.
With their own eyes, they would witness the birth of ‘Lord of Demons,’ and her fame would spread across the entire continent to change many moments in history.
It was only a beginning…
