Vol. 1 - Ch. 38 - Scary

Nanli City was built by the kingdom of Xuanqian on the periphery of theMonster Domain Forest. Initially, the place was used to defend against

monster beast attacks.

Although Nanli City was a border city, it was so prosperous that it

could compare to the capital of Xuanqian in terms of economy and size.

Some even considered it better than the capital.

Countless monster beasts lived inside the Monster Domain Forest, and

Monster Kings alone came in the hundreds.

The large amounts of monster beasts, plants, and herbs meant that this

place had abundant cultivation resources.

It was a good trial place for cultivators, and it was the perfect spot

to obtain monster beast materials and harvest plants and herbs.

Naturally, it attracted numerous cultivators to gather here.

The wide range of monster beast materials, plants, and herbs also

attracted many business people to reside here.

With the flow of business and trade, Nanli City became increasingly

prosperous.

Be it mortals or cultivators, lots of people resided here.

Qi Yuan belonged to the Qi family, one of the two main merchant families

in Nanli City and among the first to move here.

In the horse carriage, Qi Yuan found out that Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying

were not from the kingdom of Xuanqian, so she eloquently explained to

them about Nanli City and her family.

While speaking, she was proud. But when she got to her family, sadness

shrouded her face.

At this moment, the carriage stopped, and Zhang He's voice came from

outside. "Miss, we have arrived."

"Big Sister Luo, we're here. This is Nanli City." Qi Yuan smiled to

conceal her sadness and opened the curtains.

Carriages were queuing to enter Nanli City. Through the window, a

bustling crowd could be seen.

All of them were waiting to enter the city.

Nanli City was indeed prosperous.

Many cultivators flew over the carriages, going straight into the city.

Qi Yuan's carriage quickly passed through the city gate and entered the

city.

The moment they entered the city, they could hear the shouts of

bartering and noisy people walking to and fro. The city looked bustling.

Luo Hongye was attracted by the commotion outside the carriage. She lay

in Luo Ruying's arms and looked around curiously through the window.

All this time, Luo Hongye had either been hidden or locked up. She had

never seen so many people and such liveliness. She watched in a daze and

said timidly, "Mommy, Daddy, so many people!"

"Uh-huh. Do you want to go out and walk around?" Luo Ruying smiled and

stroked Luo Hongye's head indulgently.

In hindsight, she realized that she had never shown Luo Hongye the

outside world.

Luo Hongye nodded happily.

Luo Ruying carried Luo Hongye and stood up to bid farewell to Qi Yuan.

"Thank you for sending us here, Miss Qi. Since we're already inside the

city, it's time to bid farewell."

"Big Sister Luo, would you like to visit my house? Let me thank you for

saving me by playing host," Qi Yuan asked expectantly.

Luo Ruying shook her head. "Thank you. We plan to stay in the city

center for now, so we need to find a place to live. We won't trouble

you."

Qi Yuan clapped her hands happily. "That's great! I'm very familiar with

the residences in Nanli City, so I can show you around. And I can

introduce the local culture to you."

Ning Yechen narrowed his eyes and looked at Qi Yuan silently.

She was certainly enthusiastic.

Luo Ruying considered for a moment. She nodded and agreed to Qi Yuan

accompanying them.

A good guide could help them save time.

Seeing her agree, Qi Yuan was delighted. She turned to say something to

Zhang He and asked him to leave.

Zhang He was not sure about the order, but he still agreed.

After Ning Yechen and the others got off the carriage, Zhang He went

back to the Qi residence alone.

"Let's go, Big Sister Luo. Let me show you around. I know everything

there is to know about Nanli City." Qi Yuan patted her flat chest

confidently.

Luo Ruying carried Luo Hongye and followed behind Qi Yuan.

On the way, countless eyes kept looking at Luo Ruying.

Luo Ruying had beautiful features and a stunning figure body. As she

walked on the streets with Luo Hongye in her arms, countless people

turned to look.

"What a gorgeous woman!"

"She's so beautiful that few women can compare to her!"

"Tsk tsk tsk. With this aura, she must be a fairy from the heavens!"

"What about that exquisite girl in her arms? Is she her daughter?"

"How is that possible? Then, is the man behind her her husband?"

"I can't accept it!"

"How can that boy have such a beautiful woman?!"

"Isn't he just a bit more handsome than me?"

The people seemed annoyed and did not like seeing this.

Some people even looked at Luo Ruying lewdly.

Luo Ruying was not soft. She narrowed her eyes, and a powerful aura

radiated from her, shocking these people into vomiting blood.

In an instant, everyone realized this woman was a powerful cultivator!

No one dared to cause trouble anymore.

Qi Yuan looked at Luo Ruying with admiration and continued to lead them

through the streets.

Something big had happened, so it had everyone's attention.

Be it cultivators or mortals, everyone was talking about this incident.

Everyone looked solemn as they gossiped.

"Did you hear? Tianxia Scholastic Palace, the Almighty Combat Hall,

Ghost Puppet Grotto, and the Sharp Sword Sect were razed to the ground

overnight!"

"Of course. Everyone knows this by now!"

"News about this has spread throughout the eighteen provinces!"

"Who has the ability to destroy the Four Major Sects? How scary!" sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Nʘvᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

"I heard that the leaders of the Four Major Sects were out when this

happened. No one knows where they are now!"

Everyone was discussing animatedly.

This news shocked the world.

The culprit left no clues, and the whole incident became a mystery.

It was the talk of the town!

Qi Yuan had been in the Monster Domain Forest for the past few days, so

it was her first time hearing this. She was instantly dumbfounded.

She exclaimed, "The Four Major Sects were destroyed overnight. This is

crazy! Do you think it's real? If someone can really pull this off, then

he's truly scary."

Luo Ruying nodded in agreement and sighed. Sure enough, the Mortal

Realm has countless unknown talents.

Ning Yechen also nodded. "That's right. It's so scary!"
