After traveling for two hours, the sky began to brighten. However, darkness still shrouded the earth. If one did not look carefully, one might trip over something while walking on the road.
"Aiyo!" One of the exorcists suddenly grunted and almost fell to the ground.
"What's wrong?" Liu Feixue asked warily. This was the darkest time before dawn, and it was also the time when bandits were most likely to appear.
"Who was so wicked to throw trash on the main road and almost tripped me?”The man cursed with a sad face.
Liu Feixue looked over, and her eyes flashed with a red light.
"How is this trash? They are clearly corpses. There are dozens of them. Other than the elderly, there are children and strong men. There is no corpse of a young woman.”Liu Feixue said in surprise.
"Ah, it's really a corpse!" In a short time, the sun had already struggled to come out of the water. A ray of light shone down, illuminating the dozens of corpses very clearly.
"The souls of these people were all taken away. It seems like it wasn't the work of ordinary bandits. If I'm not wrong, it's most likely done by the Puppet Sect.”Liu Feixue analyzed.
"Humph, you won't even let a child off. It's simply outrageous. No wonder you can only hide in the dark and can't see the light.”Liu Tianyu snorted.
"What if we encounter the Puppet Sect cultivators? "They are so ruthless," someone said worriedly.
"What are you afraid of? We have Flying Snow. If the Puppet Sect's demons dare to come, we will kill them all.”Liu Tianyu said proudly. With such a capable son, he could walk with his chest puffed out.
"The Puppet Sect is a cultivation sect. Although it's not as powerful as the Scarlet Sun Sect, it's not something we can easily provoke. It's best if we don't run into them.”Liu Feixue said.
"That's true. Then let's hurry up. It's already dawn, so we can speed up.”Liu Tianyu muttered.
"Father, there's something that I don't understand. There are so many spirit bodies in the Puppet Sect that they don't capture, but they come to kill. Don't you think it's very strange?”Liu Feixue couldn't help but ask.
"Actually, father also feels that this is a little strange. However, it has always been difficult to guess the actions of those demons.”Liu Tianyu scratched his head. He didn't know much about these things, so he could only guess.
" Is that so?" Liu Feixue had a feeling that things weren't that simple. Recently, when the exorcists went out to do missions, most of the evil spirits below the mature stage had disappeared. She could only guess that they had been killed or subdued by someone! He felt that the Puppet Sect was up to something. Perhaps it had nothing to do with the Liu Family, but it would definitely affect the overall situation of Xinglong City.
As they walked, the sky was already bright. There were more people weeding and watering the wheat fields on both sides of the road. It was already March, and the beginning of spring had passed. The wheat that had been silent for an entire winter had also reached the time to grow again.
There was an official road connecting Xinglong City and Ganxi County. The road was paved with immortal spells, and it was even smoother than the asphalt road that Liu Feixue had walked on in her previous life.
If they followed this path, they would arrive at Ganxi County within two hours. Of course, this was the speed of ordinary people. As cultivators, Liu Feixue and the others were much faster.
While the children were still reading aloud in the school of Ganxi County, a group of several dozen people appeared at the city gate of Ganxi County. They were all dressed very energetically and held weapons in their hands. They were Liu Feixue and the others who had been rushing to Ganxi County before dawn and had finally arrived.
What they were worried about didn't happen. Perhaps the Puppet Sect didn't discover them, or perhaps they sensed that they were all cultivators and knew that they wouldn't be easy to deal with, so they didn't make a move. In short, they were lucky to have arrived at Ganxi County safely. This was more reassuring than anything else.
"So this is Ganxi County. The city walls alone are probably seven to eight meters thick.”Liu Feixue raised her head and looked at the thick city wall. It was very similar to many ancient city walls that she had read about in books. However, not only was this city wall thick, but it was also made of special materials mixed with immortals. Even the cannons in Liu Feixue's previous life might not be able to destroy it.
"Don't be surprised. You'll only be surprised when you enter the city. Ganxi County is known as the second largest city in Qinzhou, and Qinzhou is the largest province in the Pan Emperor Land.”Liu Tianyu said to his son with a smile.
"Ganxi County is the second largest city, so how can it be the first?”Liu Feixue asked with interest.
"It's the Huayin County where the Vital Energy Sect is located. There's a mountain there called Huayin Mountain, and the Vital Energy Sect is located there.”Liu Tianyu replied.
"I see." Liu Feixue nodded and was about to walk into the city, but she was stopped by the guards.
"Country bumpkin, do you know the rules?”Upon closer inspection, the soldier was also a cultivator. However, his cultivation was too low, probably only at the first or second layer of the Qi Condensation stage.
"Hehe, don't be angry, General. This is my first time in Ganxi County, so I don't know the rules. Here are three taels of silver. There are thirty-one of us, can we go in now?”Liu Tianyu quickly pulled Liu Feixue behind him and said to the soldier with a smile.
Seeing this, Liu Feixue couldn't help but smile bitterly. No matter where one went, bribery was inevitable.
"That's more like it. Let's go in." The soldier did not make things difficult for them. He removed the fence in front and looked at the people behind him.
Although it was early in the morning, there were quite a number of people entering the city. Most of them were farmers and merchants who were rushing to the morning market. They also brought quite a lot of goods.
Liu Feixue didn't have the time to care about such trivial matters. Moreover, if it was only three taels of silver, the Liu family really didn't care. Although they were considered small families among the cultivation families, compared to the secular families, they were definitely rich.
The crowd squeezed into the city. At this moment, the sky was already bright. The sunlight brought a mysterious feeling to Ganxi County. The light shone on the countless buildings, giving them a myriad of colors.
"Ha, this is a real ancient town. It's much more realistic and spectacular than what you see in the game.”Liu Feixue was so excited that she started to blurt things out.
"What ancient town? Is it really a game?" Liu Tianyu looked at his son and asked in confusion.
"Hehe, Father, you must have heard wrongly. I was just thinking about how majestic this town is. The children must be having a lot of fun playing here.”Liu Feixue quickly tried to cover up. He was used to saying things like that without thinking.
"Alright, don't run around. Go to the Regional King's Mansion and hand over the goods first. After that, I'll bring you around.”Liu Tianyu clapped his hands and gathered the excited members of the exorcism team to his side.
