--- Chapter 69 ---

If one walked a few hundred kilometers east of the fortress on the border of the Jia Ma Empire and passed through some small countries or tribes, one would be able to enter a unique region renowned throughout the entire continent as the "Black Corner Region.".

Because of its geography, Black Corner Region is almost the most chaotic area in the Dou Qi Continent. Countless strong people from all countries would flee there and construct the most barbarian rules.

In addition, besides humans, there were other races in this region. It could be called a miniature continent with its diversity.

There were no laws binding anyone within the Black Corner Region. There was one rule, the Law of the Jungle.

In other words, it meant the "weak." were prey for the strong to devour without a slight morality. The weak did not have any rights in such a place. Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

It's a simple region. As long as you wanted to, there wouldn't be anyone stopping you, even if you decided to openly "Abduct." a woman on the street and in broad daylight. Of course, you can't do it blindly because that woman might be part of powerful factions in the Black-Corner Region.

Otherwise, your fate might be miserable. In the Black-Corner Region, a woman may be even more terrifying than a man. There was only one reason for this. They managed to survive and live in this place.

Powerhouses also recognized the Black Corner Region as an information exchange point within the continent. Immense amounts of information flowed in from this place every day. After that, the news would spread to the outside world from Black-Corner Region.

Ah, putting it more bluntly, if you wanted to be famous and wanted to be renowned throughout the continent, the Black-Corner Region can provide you with the fastest shortcut. The precondition would be that you needed to possess sufficient strength and capital. Or your life would get taken before your name could leave this place.

After traveling for a few days, Baek Ain and his companions arrived at the Black-Corner Region. It's decently close to the Sky Serpent Empire, which says something about this world's size.

Baek Ain reckons he can travel around his former world roughly 21 times by commercial flight in those days. No wonder people with Dou Venerate Cultivation somehow decided to create wormholes to travel faster.

"So, this is the Black-Corner Region..." Yafei suddenly commented while watching a massive piece of land from the sky. It's vast land covered with several dead trees and a rocky mountain range.

"I heard a lot of bad things about this place. We tried to plant Shadow Guard and Miteer Family's Influence here but failed because there are Black Rankings."

"Black Ranking?" Yi Xian tilted her head.

Lan Rou saw this and explained to her, "Black Ranking is not very different from the ranking of strong people. However, it was more of an influential privilege because people usually form factions in Black Corner Region."

"Just like Lady Fei said, the Shadow Guard and Miteer Family failed to penetrate through Black-Corner Region because we didn't have the Dou Emperor for years."

"Even with Ice Emperor, I don't think we can make it into the Black Ranking. Lady Yafei and the Elders decided to give up and focused on spreading our influence over the Jia Ma Empire and neighboring empire beforehand."

Heck, even in the modern world, shit like this occurs often.

At least Baek Ain felt assured because his lovers could pull their weights in a fight. Cultivation World's Women or Female Cultivators just hit differently.

Baek Ain adjusted his facial feature with the 100 Mimicry Technique, altering his bone and flesh size to appear taller than the former.

Even though his base height has exceeded 181 centimeters because his body's growth is astonishing compared to his past life, Baek Ain wants to be more intimidating by adding 19 more centimeters.

He created a scar on the left cheek that stretched to his eye, placing a mask that only covered his mouth on top of it. And yes, Baek Ain looks like a shinobi who could copy a thousand jutsu.

Baek Ain smiled at his lovers and said, "For hiding our identity. You can call me Bai Ya from now on."

"Is that supposed to be a pun?" Yafei curiously asked as she knew Baek and Bai had the same meaning. And Ya means "Fang." which reflected Baek Ain's mastery of the bladed weapon.

"White Fang..." Lan Rou mumbled while nodding her head. "Not a bad nickname."

"Why didn't you use this nickname on the Shadow Guard?"

Baek Ain looked away and replied, "Well, I just remembered a reference to someone."

"You better hope that person isn't here then." Yi Xian commented while giving him a stinky look. "Not gonna lie, you look fine with a face mask."

"Don't worry. That person wouldn't be here for various reasons." Baek Ain returned with a small laugh. Even though he looks similar to Kakashi, their distinct difference is Baek Ain's hair has black spots and height. His eyes are also bright-blue, which is very different from black.

After organizing themselves, they used Heavenly Gryphon's ability to fly into the sky and arrive at the Black Mark City. Baek Ain scanned the city with Alicia's map and discovered several hidden spots.

There are also several Dou Emperors in this place, staying far away from each other. If the Jia Ma Empire is a small pond with some big fish, this place is like a lake filled with dangerous groups of big fish.

Baek Ain frowned and asked, "Fei, you said the Miteer Family failed to plant their influence here, right?"

"Yes." Yafei nodded calmly. "We have some dispute with local factions, and they decided to prevent us from entering the south gate. If we ever decided to send someone there, that person would get killed..."

"What's the name of that local faction?"

Yafei sighed and answered, "It's one of the Black Rankings. The Beast Taming Group."

Baek Ain smiled and commented, "Do you know what's faster than building from zero?"

"Oh no, you don't." Yi Xian realized what Baek Ain was about to say.

"Taking someone else's possession and making it your own." Baek Ain continued with a sinister grin behind his face mask.

"You madman."

"Hehe, it's Law of Jungle. That's the rule of this place."
