Worldly Star City was a city with such a beautiful name. Usually, when people heard about it for the first time, they would think of a world that looked like a galaxy.
But in truth, this place was barren.
The so-called city was just an oasis in the desert, a place where tents could be found everywhere.
This was Worldly Star City during the day. The desert stretched as far as the eye could see, and the oases that dotted the ground gave the place a hint of life. Quite a number of cultivators could be seen either meditating in the desert or moving between the tents.
This place did not look like a city, but more like a gigantic and messy market.
The scorching sun shone its heat on the ground, causing even the sand on the ground to be scorching hot. Even though this place stretched as far as the eye could see, if one looked at it for a prolonged period of time, they would inevitably feel irritated and irritated.
Because of that, Worldly Star City during the day was often referred to as the City of Annoyance.
However, at night, everything in this place would be like a mirage. It would be completely reversed, and the change would be so great that it would cause the hearts of all those who saw it for the first time to waver.
At night, the stars shone brilliantly. After the sand on the ground had been scorched for an entire day, it looked as if it had melted and turned into large stones that were placed side by side on the ground in a very orderly manner.
There was also a layer of seemingly illusory blue screen that spread across the ground, causing those who stood there to feel a cool sensation under their feet, as if they were stepping on clear water.
The tents shone with a quiet light, as if they were reflecting the starry sky. They turned into solid objects that were shaped like corners. Pillars of light rose into the air from their tips, and there were as many pillars of light as there were tents in the area.
The pillars of light seemed to be connected to the sky. As they intersected with each other, silver rivers appeared and connected each of the pillars, connecting the sky and the earth. They even turned into paths of the silver rivers that intersected with the illusory palaces that appeared in the sky during the night.
The countless palaces seemed illusory, but they were incredibly real. Even if someone walked up to them, touched them with their right hand, or sensed them with their divine sense, they would find that they existed.
When night fell in the seemingly endless desert, walls would appear out of nowhere and surround the place, as if it had turned into … a city of emperors in the mortal world.
If one looked down from the sky, the rivers of stars and palaces actually formed a very beautiful scene. This scene was like the starry sky, beautiful beyond compare.
It was just like looking at the sky from the ground. Within that peerless scene, the Worldly Star City, which existed together with the Worldly Star City, was formed.
Worldly Star City was extremely lively at night. There were many cultivators coming and going, and it was even more prosperous than Black Water City. Especially with the Black Ink Auction around the corner, the number of cultivators in the city had increased significantly.
Su Ming walked in the crowd, and Yu Rou followed behind him with her veil covering her face. Her expression remained aloof all along the way, and the murderous look in her eyes was incredibly thick. Every single time she thought of the big yellow dog changing into her appearance to marry someone, she, who had always been elegant, would be unable to help herself from going mad.
If Su Ming was not here, she would have spread her divine sense a long time ago and immediately searched for the two dogs at all costs.
"Have you heard? The Black and Crane Double Ghosts have appeared again!" As the two of them moved forward, Su Ming's expression suddenly changed. He turned his head around and looked into the distance. There was an inn over there, and there was a loud commotion within it. There were three cultivators at one of the tables, and they were talking to each other with angry expressions on their faces.
"Damn it, are you talking about that yellow dog and that woman who calls herself Grandpa Crane?"
"That's right. Who else could it be besides them? That woman who calls herself Grandpa Crane is definitely neither a man nor a woman, or else how could she call herself Grandpa Crane? She brought that despicable yellow dog with her in the past, and she made dozens of small families fly into a rage because of it."
"Eh? Brother Wang, I remember that you also joined the search for a son-in-law in the past, right?"
"Don't mention that! That woman and I are absolutely irreconcilable enemies!"
"But honestly speaking, that woman is indeed incredibly beautiful. I've seen her once, or else she wouldn't have been able to make the direct descendants of those dozens of families go mad for her. It's said that there are even a few who would do anything to become her guest."
"Hmph, your information is outdated. From what I know, there are already quite a few people who have become her guest, and after that, they fell head over heels for her, or else how could the Black and Crane Double Ghosts have managed to take away so many crystals?"
"I've seen that woman before as well. She's truly an incredibly beautiful person. Why would such a beautiful woman need to do this? She could have gone to any middle-sized family, and she would have been taken in. In fact, even the strongest families would pay attention to such a beautiful woman. If she practiced Charm Arts, then she would definitely be incredibly powerful."
As Su Ming listened, a strange expression immediately appeared on his face. He cast a sideways glance at Yu Rou. At that moment, Yu Rou was so angry that she was trembling. The murderous aura in her eyes had already reached its peak, and even the area around her had instantly turned cold.
She took a swift step forward and turned into a wisp of green smoke that appeared in the inn. Su Ming smiled wryly, but did not stop her.
He watched as Yu Rou stepped into the inn. At the instant she did so, the inn instantly turned cold, causing her to instantly attract all the people's attention.
When these people saw the veiled Yu Rou, they were immediately stunned, but soon after, some of their expressions changed drastically. In fact, some of them even stood up swiftly, and with slight uncertainty on their faces, they glared at Yu Rou.
It was especially so for the three people who had been discussing the matter just now. They were staring at Yu Rou, and their expressions slowly twisted. A monstrous wave of hatred rose swiftly within them, but they were suppressed and turned into a hint of hesitation.
When Yu Rou saw the expressions of the people around her, her heart immediately turned cold. The hint of hope that she still had in her heart disappeared by then, but she was still slightly unwilling to admit defeat. That was why she decided to lift her veil right before the people's faces.
She revealed her incredibly beautiful face.
At the instant her veil was lifted and everyone saw Yu Rou's face, enraged roars swiftly rose from the inn like a storm.
"The Black and Crane Double Ghosts!"
"It's the Black and Crane Double Ghosts! Damn it, how dare you appear in this place?! Give me back my crystals!"
"My crystals! I was going to buy my Enchanted Treasures with them! Y-y-you … I'll fight you to the death!"
Crazed voices reverberated in the air, and quite a large number of cultivators had already rushed out. The murderous aura in Yu Rou's eyes instantly became incredibly strong. She no longer had a single shred of doubt that the damn yellow dog was indeed her.
In fact, even the waiter of the inn had his eyes bloodshot. He had brought out an axe from somewhere and charged towards Yu Rou while growling.
"Damn it, it's you! You're the one who cheated me of my crystals!"
When she saw that the cultivators had already rushed towards her, Yu Rou lifted her hand and swung it outwards. Immediately, all the cultivators in the inn froze and fell backwards. Banging sounds reverberated in the air, and all the cultivators coughed up blood as they fell backwards. This was because Yu Rou had already suppressed her killing intent. With a cold harrumph, she turned around and took a step out of the inn before disappearing without a trace.
In fact, she did not even bother about Su Ming anymore. Instead, once she walked out of the inn, she immediately spread her divine sense outwards and swept through Worldly Star Planet in search of the two dogs that she hated so much that she could not wait to kill them.
Su Ming smiled wryly and shook his head. He watched as Yu Rou's divine sense swept through the area for a moment before she turned into a long arc and charged into the distance with a monstrous murderous aura. He sighed in his heart and followed after her.
In a corner of Worldly Star Planet was an old man with a sanctimonious appearance. As he stroked his beard, he looked at the two middle-aged men before him with a grin.
"Ahem, my fellow Daoists, I can only let you see the first three pages of this tome. If you want to take all of them, you'll need five hundred crystals," the old man said slowly in a relaxed manner. The old man said slowly and calmly. Underneath his feet, there was a big yellow dog lying on the ground, glaring fiercely at the two middle-aged men. From time to time, it would let out a threatening growl, as if it wanted to rush out and tear the two men into pieces. Every time when it was at its most ferocious, the old man would give it a kick, and the big yellow dog would immediately become less aggressive.
After a moment, the two middle-aged men left with the tome. The old man counted the crystals once again, and a smug expression appeared on his face as he lowered his head and spoke to the big yellow dog.
"How many times have I told you? When you should be fierce, you should be fierce, and when you shouldn't be fierce, you must be gentle. Y-y-you … Oh well, I'll take three-tenths of your profit this time."
"How dare you?!" The big yellow dog immediately stood up like a human and glared at the old man fiercely.
The old man quickly plastered a smile on his face and went up to hug the big yellow dog.
"Haha, we're brothers … Ah, don't bite me. We're brothers, alright? Brothers … We're brothers, alright? We're brothers, alright? I won't deduct anything, alright?" Once the old man put his arm around the big yellow dog's shoulder, a thick, vulgar air immediately spread out from him.
"I'm telling you, we have to occasionally reveal our identities as the Dual Fiends, the Crane and the Black. Only then will we be able to continue being famous. This identity is great. You should know that the more famous we are, the more of a commotion we'll cause when we come out of the mountain in the future." The old man chuckled softly and walked into the distance with the big yellow dog.
Yet right after they took a few steps, the old man suddenly shuddered and quickly cast a sideways glance at the big yellow dog. When he saw that the big yellow dog's expression remained the same, the old man's eyes immediately darted around.
"Its cultivation base has been severely damaged. It's only right that it can't sense it now."
"Ahem, big brother Abyss Dragon?" The old man immediately lowered his body, looking as if he was treating the big yellow dog as his superior.
This scene caused the big yellow dog to be stunned.
"Honestly, I've always had a question. Big brother Abyss Dragon, on account of how diligent I've been over the past three years, please tell me." The old man lowered his body and with an obsequious look on his face, he started begging in a submissive tone.
Before the big yellow dog could speak, he immediately continued speaking.
"Um … Why did you force me to turn into the beautiful, gentle, kind, and incomparable Big Sister Yu Rou, the lovely Big Sister Yu Rou who I respected from the depths of my heart and even thought was more brilliant than Su Ming?
"You have to know that this is something I've been feeling guilty about for the past three years. It's something that even hurts me. I … I didn't want to become her, but you … Why did you force me to become her?" As the old man spoke, he crouched down and hugged his head as he cried.
The big yellow dog was completely stunned.
At that moment, the remote place was suddenly enveloped by a wave of cold. In that cold, a voice that sounded like a mountain about to explode traveled into the air.
"The Dual Fiends, the Crane and the Black!"
