Chapter 371
Chapter 371 – Eastern Continent, Xuan Yi, Mortal?
The black-clothed woman seated in the convoy clearly belonged to a high position. When she spoke, all the guards kept silent like cicadas in the winter.
Lin Tai, who had previously been quite friendly to Xuan Yi, even apologetically shook his head at Xuan Yi, indicating that he was powerless.
However, just as the black-clothed woman finished speaking, the silver-robed girl beside her immediately became displeased.
“Xiu Shi, didn’t I tell him to follow us? This is the Grand Desolate Plateau. He’s just a mortal. How could he leave without us helping him?”
The black-clothed woman involuntarily shook her head and said, “Young Miss, you’re not young anymore. You ought to know that the hearts of the people in this world are treacherous. Our mission here is extremely important to begin with. Even though we’ve obtained some gains now, there are probably still many troublesome matters on the way back.”
The black-clothed woman paused for a moment before her gaze landed on Xuan’s body, and she said in a deep voice, “When we were in the Wind and Cloud Tribe, you received word that there were quite a few people in the clan who wanted to attack us. Now, we have to be careful with every step we take.”
“Not to mention that if that person had cultivation, it would be fine. He would be able to start somewhere. However, he is merely an ordinary person. If we bring him along, other than causing us trouble and impeding our speed, what else can he do?”
The young girl wrinkled her nose. Just as she was about to speak, Xuan Yi had already stood up and said indifferently, “Since this young lady has said so, then there’s no harm in me leaving. There’s no need to argue about it.”
Right now, his physical strength was already at the level of a Heavenly King. Just now, he released his divine sense and sensed it.
The strongest person within a thousand miles was this black-clothed woman who was addressed as a cultivator.
However, even she was merely a King realm cultivator.
With Xuan Yi’s strength, he would be safe in a thousand li at the least.
As for probing the news, it could be seen from what Xuan Yi had heard from Lin Tai.
This place wasn’t uninhabited, and there were a few human tribes scattered around the land.
He could go there to gather information, while at the same time absorb spiritual essence to heal. It would just take a bit more effort.
There was no need to force him to stay.
Hearing Xuan Yi’s words, the young girl couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious and said, “Your injuries haven’t healed yet. Don’t try to show off. Don’t pay any attention to cultivators. I’m the master of this merchant group. Stay as long as you want!”
When the black-clothed woman heard this, she could not help but feel somewhat helpless.
When she was a young girl, black-clothed woman had followed her as a retainer, and witnessed her grow up.
Naturally, she knew that this “young mistress” was good in every aspect. Except that she was too kind.
In an ordinary clan, this innocent and kind-hearted person would not pose any threat.
However, her so-called home could take the girl’s life!
On this trip, she originally wanted to teach her a lesson and change her personality.
However, from the looks of it, it was futile.
“Miss!”
The black-clothed woman couldn’t help but shout.
The young girl blinked her large eyes and pitifully turned around, “Cultivator …”
The black clothed woman heaved a heavy sigh. “This will be the only exception. There can be no next time!”
Hearing this, the girl immediately cheered and jumped to Xuan Yi’s side, pushing him back into the carriage.
“You can rest and recuperate here. We are not in a hurry to travel these past few days. You can rest assured that we will not leave you.”
From the young girl’s point of view, Xuan Yi, a mortal, might be searching for some spiritual medicines in the Grand Desolate Plateau.
Perhaps it was for the sake of saving his family, or for the sake of seeking that strand of Immortal Fate.
Regardless of which one, it made the young girl feel sympathy for Xuan Yi.
Although Xuan Yi hadn’t guessed the young girl’s miraculous assumption, her sincere expression was rather touching.
Xuan Yi pondered for a moment before temporarily letting go.
No matter what, it was true that this merchant group had saved him once.
Even the black-clothed woman did not take any coercive measures when the young girl insisted on treating him.
Based on Xuan Yi’s observation, this “cultivator” had great prestige in the merchant group.
If she really made a decision, the girl alone might not be able to oppose her.
“That’s fine. I’ll be traveling with them for the time being. If there’s a chance for me to lend a hand, I’ll return the favor.”
After Xuan Yi made his decision, he no longer acted like an indebted person.
He was an indifferent person to begin with. After his cultivation continuously improved, his sword heart became even purer.
He quickly abandoned these foreign matters.
He cultivated peacefully within the merchant group, and along the way, he learned a lot of useful information from the merchant group’s guards.
“I didn’t expect to run to the Eastern Continent. So that’s why I couldn’t contact Bing Yu.”
Xuan Yi shook his head. The distance between the Eastern Continent and the Southern Continent was more than ten billion li.
Although the system was powerful, there was a natural spatial barrier between the five continents that far surpassed the boundaries of the Southern Continent.
Coupled with the obstruction from a great distance, he would probably have to wait for his strength to increase by a large amount before he could communicate across continents.
The Eastern Continent was different from the countless regions of the Southern Continent.
Although the area was much larger than the Southern Continent, there were only four boundaries.
It was divided into the Eastern Land, the Southern Territory, the Northern Wasteland, and the Western Desert.
Amongst them, the Eastern Land was the most prosperous. It was where the most prosperous human race of Eastern Continent thrived.
The only two supreme sects in the Eastern Continent were located in the Eastern Lands.
Xuan Yi was currently in the most barren southern border of the Eastern Continent.
Of course, this barrenness was only relative.
Compared to the Western Desert, which was completely occupied by the demons.
At the very least, the humans of the southern border relied on the natural terrain and dangers of the ten million li wasteland to stop them, and managed to preserve some of their territories.
“However, the Eastern Continent’s supreme clans are so powerful that it is truly unbelievable.”
According to Lin Tai and the others.
There were nine Barbarian Tribes and four Demon Tribes in the Eastern Continent.
There were even Barbarian Sovereigns who were close to the Demon Lord level.
With the powerful bodies of the demon race, unless a human Daoist took action, there was no way they could do anything to them.
As for the four Demon Lords, they were on par with the human Dao Sovereigns.
If it wasn’t for the humans of the Eastern Continent, in addition to the two supreme sects and many Ancient clans and Ancient dynasties, the entire Eastern Continent would have probably been completely taken over by the allied demons.
After digesting the information he had gathered, Xuan Yi returned to his carriage and prepared to rest.
The black-clothed woman turned around and coldly said when she saw that Xuan Yi was about to rest, “There are no idle people in our merchant group. I think you’ve been running around the Merchant group enough these past few days. Have you recovered enough? Then do something you can do. Don’t lie on the carriage!”
