The Lanling Prefecture was supposed to refer to the area of the entire Lanling Prefecture. The hundreds of prefectures under the Lanling Prefecture could all be called the Lanling Prefecture's territory.
However, under normal circumstances, the Lanling Prefecture that people referred to was the Lanling Prefecture located in the Lanling City, where the Prefecture Master resided.
The Lanling City was one of the prefectures of the Lanling Prefecture and was also the central area of the hundreds of prefectures in the Lanling Prefecture. It was the economic and transportation hub of the Lanling Prefecture.
The Lanling City was more than ten times larger than an ordinary city and had a large population.
Because the Lanling Prefecture was located in the Lanling City, it was also called the Lanling Prefecture City. It was rumored that the Lanling City was filled with experts and crouching tigers.
With the King Scaled Demonic Tiger around, it was naturally convenient for Du Shaofu to go to the Lanling Prefecture.
After understanding the direction of the Lanling Prefecture, excluding the time to rest at night, it would probably take two days to reach the Lanling Prefecture.
However, with the King Scaled Demonic Tiger around, Du Shaofu had some misgivings. According to his drunkard father, having the King Scaled Demonic Tiger around wasn't necessarily a good thing.
After all, the outside world was the human world. With the King Scaled Demonic Tiger's mediocre Pulse Spirit Realm cultivation, it was definitely a prey that many people wanted. The King Scaled Demonic Tiger's bones and essence blood were also priceless.
Therefore, along the way, Du Shaofu didn't dare to be too ostentatious. However, it opened his eyes a lot.
He expected to reach the Lanling Prefecture in two days, but in reality, Du Shaofu only arrived three days later. On the first night, when he was spending the night in a small town in the mountains, he encountered a shady inn.
The shady inn originally thought that Du Shaofu was young and generous, so he would definitely be a fat sheep. However, he didn't expect him to be a jinx.
With the King Scaled Demonic Tiger around, the result was obvious. The shady inn was directly torn apart by the King Scaled Demonic Tiger. Everything valuable that could be taken away from the inn naturally fell into Du Shaofu's Qiankun Bag.
The next night, Du Shaofu was much more careful. He spent the night in a quiet valley. With the deterrence of the King Scaled Demonic Tiger, ordinary demonic beasts did not dare to come close.
The red sun had just risen, and the mountains were continuous. Each peak was ink-blue in color. Soon after, mist rose, and milky white gauze separated the mountains, leaving only the green peaks. It was like a refreshing, dense, and exquisite landscape painting. It was too beautiful to take in all at once.
Amidst the mountains, the field of vision in front of him suddenly became vast and boundless. The endless buildings were tall and short, and they were orderly. They formed a building complex that was as vast as the sea. It was majestic and magnificent, causing people to exclaim in admiration.
The continuous and tall city walls were about ten zhang tall and were built with several layers of huge rocks that weighed several thousand jin. It made people feel oppressed when they stood under the city walls.
It was likely that even a perfect Pulse Spirit Stage practitioner would find it difficult to destroy such a thick wall.
From all directions, there were many groups of people entering the city one after another. Many of them were riding demonic beast mounts, and they had an extraordinary aura. They should be caravans from various places.
With the large population and large area of the Lanling Prefecture City, the amount of goods and various consumables entering and leaving the city every day was definitely a shocking number.
Du Shaofu was standing under the city walls. Behind him was the King Scaled Demonic Tiger that had shrunk its body to the size of a night cat. His gaze fell on the four large golden words on the city walls.
"Lanling Prefecture City."
Du Shaofu raised his head and looked at the four large words that could be seen from afar. It was as if he was saying to the King Scaled Demonic Tiger beside him, "We're here."
Stepping forward, Du Shaofu and the King Scaled Demonic Tiger entered the city along with the caravans entering the city.
As soon as they entered the city, Du Shaofu felt what it meant to be bustling. In the bustling and bustling Lanling Prefecture City, the streets were bustling with people. From time to time, the clamor of hawking could be heard.
This was only in the morning, and it was enough to show how bustling the Lanling Prefecture City was.
The King Scaled Demonic Tiger followed Du Shaofu as they strolled along the bustling streets, and it immediately attracted a lot of attention.
In the Lanling Prefecture City, there were definitely many young masters who kept demonic beasts as pets. Those top playboys even had some decent demonic beasts.
However, Du Shaofu had a stray cat following behind him, so he had no choice but to pay more attention to him.
It was his first time in such a huge city like the Lanling Prefecture City. After all, Du Shaofu was not even seventeen years old. His interest was piqued, and he even bought a lot of things as he strolled around.
The Lanling Prefecture City was astonishingly prosperous. There were all kinds of shops, and there was a dazzling array of goods.
Naturally, there were also many shops that sold Martial Cultivation items. There were elixirs, martial skills, weapons, and so on.
After Du Shaofu went in to take a look, he was shocked. This was not something the Stone City could compare to. There were even Profound Level Cultivation Techniques and Spiritual Elixirs for sale.
However, the prices made Du Shaofu flabbergasted, and he immediately stopped.
Late in the morning, there was a sudden commotion on the bustling streets.
"Little girl, how can this broken thing of yours be worth a thousand Cultivation Coins? It's not a martial skill, nor is it an elixir. You're clearly scamming people."
Quite a number of people had gathered at the corner of the bustling street. A young man dressed in luxurious clothes was holding a palm-sized object in his hand with his sleeves rolled up. His eyes, however, were looking at a young girl of fourteen or fifteen years old with malicious intent.
Although the girl was young, her body was already curvy. In addition to her delicate and pretty face, she would definitely become slim and elegant in two years' time.
"This is my ancestral item. It's said that this item is very special. If it wasn't for my aunt being seriously injured and needing treatment, I wouldn't have sold this ancestral item."
The girl seemed to feel that the young man in luxurious clothes had no intention of buying it. She immediately snatched the palm-sized item from the young man's hand with a nervous expression.
The gaze of the young man in luxurious clothes made the girl feel extremely uncomfortable, and she felt afraid for no reason.
"If this item is extraordinary, why would you be willing to sell it? Little girl, do you know what a thousand Cultivation Coins represent? It means that I can buy a Low Yellow Level Martial Skill. A thousand Cultivation Coins is more or less enough to go to the Happy Red Brothel and find a courtesan. Haha."
The well-dressed young man laughed heartily. He looked at the young girl with an evil smile and said: "I'm not interested in this broken thing. Why don't you follow this Young Master? In the future, you'll serve this Young Master as a personal maid. If you serve this Young Master comfortably, I'll give you a thousand cultivation coins today. How about it? You look pretty good. If you wait for another two years, haha …"
As the young man in luxurious clothes spoke, his gaze became more and more filthy.
"Haha, this girl is not bad. She's a good virgin."
"It's a pity that Young Master Guo made the first move. I'm so envious."
The surrounding young men in luxurious clothes immediately echoed. Many burly men in guard attire stood at the side with obscene smiles on their faces.
Although there were many onlookers in the surroundings, no one stepped forward to stop the young men in luxurious clothes. In fact, they even revealed fear in their eyes.
Some of the onlookers in the crowd also pulled their female companions behind them.
There were even some people who saw the young men in front and immediately pulled their female companions away in a hurry.
Some of the female companions saw the young men in luxurious clothes and immediately turned pale. They turned their heads and left, afraid that they would be seen by the young men in luxurious clothes.
"It's Guo Kun of Lan Ling's Four Young Masters again."
"What Lan Ling's Four Young Masters? They're clearly the Four Scourges of Lan Ling."
"Lower your voice. Don't let Guo Kun hear you. Otherwise, you'll be in trouble."
"What a pity for that girl. Why did she have to meet that scum Guo Kun?"
"… … …"
Many people in the crowd lowered their voices as they were afraid that the young men in luxurious clothes would hear them. However, the gazes in their eyes were filled with disdain toward the young men in luxurious clothes.
"I'm not selling this ancestral item."
The young woman was a bit scared. She immediately turned around and wanted to leave. She could tell that the young men in luxurious clothes were not good people.
"Little girl, don't leave yet. Come with me. How about two thousand Profound coins?" The young man in the middle immediately blocked the young woman's path and did not allow her to leave.
"No, I'm going back."
The young woman was afraid. Tears were about to overflow from her innocent eyes.
"Then I'll send you back, okay?" The young man in luxurious clothes was unwilling to let her go. He evilly smiled and grabbed the young woman's shoulder.
"Sigh, this bastard. He's bringing disaster to the Lan Ling Prefecture City."
When the surrounding crowd saw that, no one dared to interfere. Several cultivators with decent strength had furious gazes. However, in the end, they could only watch with folded arms. They did not dare to step forward.
Seeing that the hand of the young man in luxurious clothes was about to grab the young woman's shoulder, the young woman wanted to back away. However, she panicked and didn't know what to do. Tears were already overflowing from her eyes. She looked very pitiful and pitiful.
"Snatching a young woman in broad daylight. Do you even have any shame?!"
His indifferent voice sounded. There was even a bit of immaturity in his voice.
"Chi!"
However, just at that moment, a purple-clothed young man suddenly appeared beside the panicking young woman. He waved his hand and with a shake of his wrist, he grabbed the wrist of the young man in luxurious clothes.
An invisible power suppressed the young man in luxurious clothes' hand. It actually pressed down the young man's hand a bit and he was unable to move it forward in the slightest.
"Who is that boy? He actually dared to provoke Guo Kun. "
"He doesn't seem to be a disciple from some big family in the Lan Ling Prefecture City. If that boy doesn't have some background, then he's an idiot."
"… …"
At that instant, everyone's gazes were astonished. All of them were astonished as they looked at the purple-clothed young man.
The young man in luxurious clothes also looked at the purple-clothed young man in astonishment. Then, he saw that the purple-clothed young man was sixteen or seventeen years old. Furthermore, it was an unfamiliar face. He was slightly stunned. Then, with a smile that was not a smile, he asked, "Boy, are you from the Lan Ling Prefecture City?"
"No." The purple-clothed young man shook his head.
Little Yu, continue to write. There's more. Continue to work hard. "
