Chapter 1056: Starter City #5 - Part 2

Tang Shaoyang opened the Communication System. The first thing he needed to do was to confirm his safety to the people of his empire. He did not know how long he stayed in the Void Realm, and he was not aware of the situation back there. He sent the message to Zhang Mengyao, explaining the situation and why he decided not to return.         

    

The reply came in an instant, then his message inbox burst with messages. Mostly from his girls, but he saw Wei Xi, Lu An, Yu Shun, and much more sliding into his inbox. He had no time to reply to them one by one, but he sent one more message to Zhang Mengyao.     

First, he handed the empire to her care while he went into hiding. He did not want the Divine Church to find out that he was alive and sent another God Ranks to hunt him down. Second, another reason he did not return was that he did not know the direction back to Starter City #4. He ran blindly and went too far, so he did not have a way to return even if he wanted. Lastly, he told her his plan to go to another starter city. The plan was that he wanted to reach Primordial Rank before searching his way back to the empire. He felt like that was the only way to ensure his safety from the God Rank. The second bloodline from the trial would help him a lot in fighting God Rank.     

The main concern was that Zhang Mengyao was afraid that another rebellion would arise. The reason for the previous rebellion was that Tang Shaoyang rarely showed himself to the public, making the new people that joined the empire disregard the emperor. She was afraid that the same thing would repeat.     

Tang Shaoyang looked up at the bright sky, following the two adventurers. It was not like he had another choice because he really could not show up in public. If the Divine Church sniffed out that he was still alive, it would be worse than the previous encounter. Those God Ranks would know that he had something to save himself from death, and who knew those God Ranks might have something that could prevent his resurrection for the second time.     

"He seems in a lot of trouble? Can we take this chance to escape?" Roman whispered to Lulu as they led the way. Even though he agreed to be the dog, there was no contract or oath. There was nothing that prevented him from escaping.     

The ash-pink-colored hair Lulu glanced to the back, noticing Tang Shaoyang indeed looked troubled. She was in a different situation than Roman; there was no agreement between her and Tang Shaoyang. She just resented the man for hurting her before, but nothing else. She had a little bit of a grudge, but not to the point that made her want to kill the unknown man. In fact, she was at fault for attacking the man because Roman and the man tried to fight for the blade.     

"If you think you can escape from him, then you can go. I think he's strong enough to escort me back safely." Lulu replied and waved her hand at Roman as if Roman was a wild cat, and she tried to chase him away.     

"Your father will strangle me to death, and your brothers will hunt me down," Roman replied with a fake frightening expression. "But why do you want to stay with him? He's dangerous. You know that he will not hesitate to kill you if you displease him. I know very well what kind of person this man is."     

"If you are done with your discussion, we can pick our pace!" Tang Shaoyang's flat voice interrupted the two adventurers' conversation.     

Even though they picked up the pace, it was not possible to reach Starter City #5 within one day, and they had to sleep in the wild once.     

"It's best if we look for a safe area and spend the night there instead of continuing the journey. A lot of strong beasts are hunting in the night, and our journey will be delayed a lot more, Boss." Roman suggested taking a rest after a whole day's march.     

Noticing the boss frowned, Roman immediately continued. "The time difference is not that much, Boss. If we continue now, we will arrive in the city by tomorrow evening because we have to fight the strong beasts eventually. If we continue the journey tomorrow morning, we will arrive at the city by night without risk."     

Roman made a bonfire after securing a safe area, eating beef jerky while looking at his boss in jealousy. His boss was sitting in a strange bed yet looked comfortable, holding a hot meal from the inventory. What made him jealous was the food, the aroma made him get hungrier, and he only had tough beef jerky. With how the man put a distance from him, Roman did not dare to ask for a meal from his boss.     

The following morning, Roman looked exhausted. Even though he proposed to get a rest, he did not get the rest. His stomach was rumbling all night, and thanks to that, he did not sleep. They departed earlier in the morning, and as Roman promised, they arrived at the city by night.     

Different from Starter City #4, the one in front of him is located in the middle of the grassland. Despite the dark night, the city illuminated the grassland. That was right; the pillar on the city wall glowed brightly.     

"We are only the only starter city with five worlds, and we are from Karian," Roman explained as they entered the city. He hoped to find more information about Tang Shaoyang by telling that, wishing to know where Tang Shaoyang came from. However, his effort went futile as Tang Shaoyang did not give the response he wanted.      

There was no guard at the gate since the barrier was enough to protect the city from the hostile, and there was no regulation that the players from the other cities could not enter. Tang Shaoyang entered Starter City #5 without any trouble.     

"Since this is an early start, there's nothing much outside the world's territory." Roman continued, realizing he did not get the response he wanted. "Do you want to visit Karian's territory?"
