Those people nodded in agreent.

Ci Ye said, “However, they have now joined a cal caravan, of around two hundred people, apparently also headed to Wasteland City. They are most likely traveling together to Wasteland City.”

“Cals! Going to Wasteland City too? What a trouble!” Yang Jing wasn’t afraid of these sweet potato-like cal traders, all of whom were good for nothing.

“Yes, it’s likely that Jiang Zhuge and his party know those people, and we’re afraid they might aid them when we take action,” stated Ci Ye.

Yang Jing fell silent upon hearing this.

After listening, You Dao said, “What’s there to fear? They’re just a bunch of cal traders. Even the few who know martial arts aren’t worth worrying about. They can’t handle us. If they dare to intervene, we’ll take them down first.”

“Still, we should be cautious and prepared. If any trouble arises, the people of the cal caravan might protect them. There might be so formidable figures within the caravan. More importantly, we are only a day away from Wasteland City. When we attack them, they will surely alert the people from the city for help. This would leave us only one night. If we can’t snatch the girl within that ti, and don’t leave, we might be placing ourselves in danger,” Ci Ye reasoned.

Yang Jing nodded, saying, “Indeed, the second brother is right. Rember, your target is the girl. I only need to seize that girl.”

The people all nodded in unison.

“I wonder what the Earth King wants with that child,” speculated You Dao.

“That’s none of our concern,” Yang Jing, fully aware of the situation, stated, “Get prepared. I think they’re about to make a stop soon.” Turning to Ci Ye, he added, “See if anyone is coming to et them.”

Ci Ye nodded, replying, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep an eye out.”

The girl was shielded by more than twenty people, as if in protective custody, keeping outsiders at a distance. The most intriguing spectacle at the mont was this girl.

It wasn’t just Ye Chen who was observing them; all the people were looking at her.

Perhaps her charm set her apart from others. Otherwise, Ye Chen wouldn’t have been infatuated, and he was not the only one.

“Still dreaming of becoming their son-in-law?” The Red Demonic Spirit asked.

“Hehe, do you think I’m bold enough to bring sha to our family?” questioned Ye Chen.

“Hard to say! If I weren’t watching you, anything could happen.”

“Despite my young age, I’m quite a principled man.”

“Principled! Don’t make

laugh, I’ve seen it all. Principles aren’t worth a di. Apart from poetry and the distances ahead, there’s the mundane now, which seems to be more important to you.”

“Do you think I lack principle?”

“Because of the mundane here and now, at what point can you sell your principles?”

“Impossible. I’m so rich now, how could I bear to sell such an important principle.”

Before they realized, dusk approached. A mber of the group, pointing to an approaching hill, shouted, “Alright, we’ll rest by that mound tonight. There’s an inn there. We’ll resu our journey in the morning.”

They all looked towards the vast mound, the everywhere sand shimring gold under the fading yellow sunset.

Ye Chen followed the caravan as it continued to advance.

There was sand embedded deep inside his shoes which felt awfully uncomfortable. He decided that he would bathe once he reached the Wastelands.

Sure enough, there was an inn where they slowly ca to a stop. The place soon beca crowded with over two hundred people entering all at once.

Ye Chen followed the cal caravan into the inn, where the Landlady, excited at the sight of so many custors, looked as though she was in search of a man for herself.

The mountain cast a shadow over the inn, shielding it from the harsh sunlight.

The first to enter the inn, of course, were the people accompanying the little girl. Under the protection of over a dozen n, they made their way into the building.

Ye Chen left his horse in soone else’s care. The only thing he didn’t entrust others with was his silver. Perhaps due to his long-term poverty, despite being wealthy now, he was still quite stingy, a typical nouveau riche attitude.

He washed his face thoroughly at the entrance and got rid of all the sand. However, after entering the inn, he realised that all the rooms were taken. Realising that money can’t buy everything left him frustrated.

“So where will I sleep tonight?” Ye Chen asked a chubby woman before him.

She being quite a snob, bellowed, “You can sleep anywhere you like. That’s your problem. However, we have communal rooms here. You’ve got to pay upfront.”

“Will it not be too crowded to share rooms with these people?”

“Of course, it’s warr that way.”

“I have enough silver. It doesn’t matter if it’s a bit pricey. Just find

a room.”

“There aren’t any. If you’re not taking the shared room, soon even that will be full. Then you’ll have to sleep in the open, under the wilderness. The nights here are quite nice, albeit a bit chilly. Not sure if you can handle it. There might even be a sandstorm in the middle of the night, and you can watch the sky full of sands.”

“So, I have no choice but to take the shared room.”

“You have a choice. Sleep in the stables. No silver needed. There are horses to keep you company. But it’s quite infested with mosquitoes, and the stench of urine is quite strong.”

“What about them?”

Ye Chen pointed at the group of people with the little girl, who had already gone upstairs. He knew they had booked quite a few rooms.

“Can you compare yourself with others? Get a good look at yourself first,” the chubby woman sneered. This little beggar was certainly very talkative.

“What can’t be compared?”

“Move aside quickly. If you want to stay, then stay. Don’t block my business,” the chubby woman snapped impatiently.

“Fine, a communal room.” Ye Chen mumbled to himself, “One day, you’ll be inviting

to stay in your best room.”

Ye Chen handed over so silver, took a token, and left.

“You see? This is reality. The gap between you all, shared dorms and singles, the first floor, and second floor,” the Red Demonic Spirit said in a hushed tone.

“The food should be enough.” Ye Chen ordered a large table of food but never saw the girl co down while he was eating. The figures of the Heavenly King on the second floor blocked the people below from going up.

Ye Chen had a al and found where he would rest tonight. In a large room, aside from a path to walk on, two rows of wooden boards were set up like a pigsty on both sides. The stench of sweat and sounds of snoring ca through like thunder was striking, almost like an earthquake. Suddenly he felt as if he’d been poisoned, and it beca difficult to breathe.

“Already can’t take it?” the Red Demonic Spirit jabbed at him again.

“Who said I can’t take it?”

“You had a comfortable life in the Central Plains, but you insisted on coming here. This is the ss you’ve made for yourself.”

“Fine, say whatever you want to provoke . It doesn’t matter to .” Ye Chen really didn’t want to stay there, he left a bundle and except for the silver taels, he went outside.

It was still a bit early, but the sky was painted with beautiful colors. He climbed the mountain blocking the colorful clouds in one breath. The world was quiet now, all was still, waiting for nightfall.

The view from the mountaintop was vast; the wind wasn’t too strong, finally he could relax. He looked into the distance, but it was still endless yellow sand.

Pulling out his map, he looked at it and said, “Endure one more night.” When he got to Wasteland City, he would buy a big courtyard. He daydread about having a courtyard of his own.

Below, more custors entered the inn and the shop assistants beca busier.

Looking to the second floor, a small face peeked out from a window. It was that girl. Ye Chen saw her shallow dimples again. How could she be so charming? It seed she also liked the sunset.

Under the glow of the sunset, that beautiful face was enchanting, making one yearn to kiss her, yet it was a beauty to be appreciated from afar, not to be disrespected.

“Daydreaming again?” the Red Demonic Spirit started to talk again.

“No.” Ye Chen said.

“Really fallen for her, have you?”

“No, I’m just curious. Wondering what kind of person she is.”

“You sure have a broad curiosity. Drooling already,” the Red Demonic Spirit said.

“Who says? In the future, I surely will have a string of wives and concubines. This one’s just a casual thought.” Ye Chen looked at the girl his own age, secretly motivating himself.

“Hehe, you’re all talk. It doesn’t cost anything to bluff.”

“You’ll see, I am one in ten thousand.”

“One in ten thousand, usually the ones going backward.” The Red Demonic Spirit looked at Ye Chen who was like a love-struck fool and jokingly asked, “Pretty, isn’t she?”

“Yeah, pretty, but I have seen others as pretty as her,”

“Bragging.”

“I’m telling the truth.” Ye Chen thought of Guo Yuqing and sighed deeply.

“All you can do is look.”

“That’s not true.”

“Put your efforts into martial arts. If you have the skills, why would you be afraid of not finding won?”

That was a reasonable point. Ye Chen nodded, took out the Secret Manual, put it on his knee and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t think about anything else. I will allocate all of my ti to the main matter.” Ye Chen started reading and continued speaking, “I don’t understand these characters, what’s the point of morizing them?”

“These letters are related to these pictures. Only by unlocking the Jade Ring can these symbols be explained. They’re paired together. You don’t need to think about anything now, just morize these things. Later, you’ll have plenty of ti to understand them slowly. Don’t think so much,” the Red Demonic Spirit continued, “Especially these images. They are related to your Eight Extraordinary ridians.”

“Hmm, got it. Don’t worry, just count

as dead in the coming years.”

“As long as you understand. Without being hamred and forged, it’s hard to make a good sword. Particularly, you need to make up for your ignorance during the past thirteen years.”

“How do you know I was ignorant during these thirteen years?”

“Is there a need to say it! Besides digging in the fields and hunting on the mountains, what else do you know? Don’t think you know everything, when you think you know everything, that’s because you know nothing. Even if I have lived for a thousand years, I wouldn’t dare to say I know everything.”

“Of course, you were trapped in a sealed classroom, what could you understand?”

“Frankly speaking, I really have to thank those thousand years in the vault.”

“Hehe, really? Why didn’t you stay another thousand years in the vault then?”

“Inside the vault, I built a library. In those thousand years, I read all the books.”

“Oh, it seems you’re quite an intellectual.”

“But books are of many kinds, so are partial, so are systematic. Systematic books are much stronger. Like this book, it’s systematic, it’s the epito of a person’s understanding of martial arts.”

“How do you know?”

“Don’t doubt .”

“I wouldn’t dare.” Just looking at that girl, it seed he didn’t need to eat anything, and his stomach would still be full.
