Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Dark City was still bustling with activity. The only difference was that the Black Fiend Sect and Twin Hatred Sect were no longer in Dark City. Instead, they were replaced by the World Society.
At dusk, two figures wearing cloaks and masks and gray veils walked into the Dark City without leaving a trace.
One of them was tall and straight while the other was slender and exquisite. They should be a man and a woman. Behind them was a small black cat.
The man and woman entered Dark City and walked slowly. They were neither fast nor slow. Even when the sun was setting, the two of them were still wandering aimlessly.
"Mu Clan Trading Company …"
The afterglow of the setting sun shone. The two figures unknowingly walked to the entrance of the Mu Clan Trading Company. Then, the tall and straight figure looked at the small tea stall diagonally across the Mu Clan Trading Company. His gaze flickered as he said, "Little Blue, let's go and rest for a while."
The tea stall didn't have much business at the moment. In front of the tea stall, the silver-haired old lady was arranging the tea leaves while the little boy was practicing writing.
Seeing that someone had come, the little boy immediately stood up. Seeing the two figures wearing veils, he didn't find it strange at all. He smiled and said softly, "Do the two of you want to drink some tea?"
"Yes, two cups of tea that you think is good will do," the tall and straight figure said softly. Then, the two of them sat down at the table where the little boy was writing.
"Brother, is Grandma Silver Flower really in Dark City?"
Behind the veil, the slender figure spoke. Her voice was clear and crisp. It was Du Xiaoqing who came from Chaos Demon City.
The other person was naturally Du Shaofu. With Du Shaofu's current reputation in the Dark Forest, Du Shaofu entered the Dark Forest in this disguise in order to avoid causing unnecessary commotion.
This time, Du Shaofu's goal in entering Dark City was to find Grandma Silver Flower. Grandma Silver Flower was the guardian of the Dark Forest. This time, the World Alliance was established with the intention of controlling the entire Dark Forest. Du Shaofu naturally had to find Grandma Silver Flower before he could be at ease.
Furthermore, Grandma Silver Flower had given him an opportunity previously. Du Shaofu also had the intention of paying Grandma Silver Flower a visit. However, no one knew where Grandma Silver Flower was.
Du Shaofu had come to Dark City because he had a feeling that Grandma Silver Flower was in the vicinity of Dark City. Otherwise, Grandma Silver Flower would not have known about the Dark Nether Sect's rampage in Dark City.
However, the difficulty of finding the reclusive Grandma Silver Flower in the huge Dark City was not much different from finding a needle in a haystack.
"Granny Silver Flower should be in Dark City. However, it is hard to find her."
Du Shaofu smiled wryly as he glanced around. His gaze fell on the words that the little boy had just written. Beneath the veil, his gaze flickered. He saw that the little boy's words were written one stroke at a time. His strokes were nimble and vigorous. With such skill, he could be considered a master of calligraphy.
Du Shaofu could be considered to have dabbled in calligraphy since he was young. Back then, when he was treated as a foolish young master, his eldest and second uncles had invited many teachers to teach him literature. They wanted him to fail in martial arts and find a way out through literature in the future.
Therefore, Du Shaofu was quite knowledgeable in this aspect. Therefore, he was shocked when he saw the words.
"Here is your tea. These tea leaves were personally picked by my grandma. They are the best to drink."
The little boy carried two cups of tea and placed them in front of Du Shaofu and Du Xiaoqing. He then took a few more glances at the little black cat with curiosity in his eyes.
"Who taught you to write these words?"
Du Shaofu held the words that the little boy had written and looked at him as he asked.
The little boy looked at Du Shaofu and said, "Grandma taught me to write them."
Hearing this, Du Shaofu immediately looked at the silver-haired old lady. Beside the tea stall, the silver-haired old lady was still arranging the tea leaves in her hands with her head down. It seemed that she did not care about anything that was happening in the outside world.
With trembling eyes, Du Shaofu got up and walked towards the silver-haired old lady in front of the tea stall. Smelling the faint fragrance of the tea around him, his eyes suddenly moved slightly. He immediately bowed and said, "Du Shaofu greets grandma."
"Sir, do you want more tea?"
The silver-haired old lady raised her head and a smile appeared on her old and kind face.
"I don't want it. This junior is going to the Central State. I came here to express my gratitude and bid farewell to Granny." Du Shaofu said respectfully.
"Are you going to travel far? Then you have to be careful. I heard that it is very chaotic outside. There are powerful Demonic Beasts everywhere."
The silver-haired old lady did not know whether she understood or not. It seemed that she did not answer the question. She smiled and said, "After you come back, continue to drink tea. There are fewer and fewer young people who like to drink tea nowadays."
"Okay."
Du Shaofu nodded and stood respectfully.
When the last ray of the setting sun disappeared into the horizon, Du Shaofu and Du Xiaoqing left the tea stall and walked into the crowd.
"Brother, where are we going now?"
On the bustling street, Du Xiaoqing asked Du Shaofu, "Are we going to continue looking for Grandma Silver Flower?"
With a veil covering his face, Du Shaofu smiled and said, "We have already found Grandma Silver Flower. We can go to the Central Plains now."
"Grandma Silver Flower? When did we find Grandma Silver Flower?" Du Xiaoqing asked doubtfully.
"The old lady at the tea stall. She is already so old, but she can still pick tea. There doesn't seem to be any tea mountains near the Dark City. Also, the little boy's handwriting is not simple. How could a simple old lady teach him?"
Du Shaofu said softly. Originally, he had not been able to find any traces of Grandma Silver Flower. However, he was suddenly enlightened by the words of the little boy. When he stepped forward, Du Shaofu was finally able to confirm Grandma Silver Flower's identity.
Back then, Grandma Silver Flower had brought Du Shaofu away. Although he did not see Grandma Silver Flower's true appearance, that faint special aura left an impression on Du Shaofu. It was the faint fragrance of tea.
"Could it be that the old lady at the tea stall is Grandma Silver Flower?"
Du Xiaoqing finally understood. She did not detect any aura from the silver-haired old lady. Of course, Du Xiaoqing did not notice the silver-haired old lady at the tea stall. If she did not hear Du Shaofu mention it, she would not have thought of the silver-haired old lady. It was no wonder that her brother bowed to the silver-haired old lady.
"Of course, that must be Grandma Silver Flower. She can escape from your prying eyes, but she can't escape from mine."
Du Xiaoyao stuck her head out from under the veil on Du Shaofu's shoulder. She moved her spiritual eyes and grinned, revealing two rows of white and neat teeth.
"If you had already discovered it, why didn't you say so?" Du Xiaoqing glared at Du Xiaoyao. She did not believe Du Xiaoyao's words at all.
Du Xiaoyao smiled embarrassedly. She shot a glance at Du Shaofu and said, "I was just about to tell you. Who knew that he had already discovered it."
"Let's go. We should leave." Du Shaofu smiled and strode away.
"Roar …"
Night had just fallen. Outside the Dark City, a pitch-black giant tiger flapped its wings and soared into the sky. It gradually disappeared into the night.
The Central Continent was a vast and boundless land. It was incomparably vast.
Although the Dark Forest, Stone Dragon Empire, Tianhu Empire, and other empires were also considered to be part of the Central Region, they were only located in a small corner of the Central Region.
For the people who were in a small area, they only knew that there were tens of thousands of countries and countless sects in the Central Region. There were also large sects and powerful clans that stood tall in a region, and they had graced the imperial power of the empire with their presence.
The central region of the Central Region was the holy land of martial cultivators. It was a place where the strong were respected and the weak were prey to the strong. However, there were also many heroes and outstanding individuals. There were countless demonic beasts with powerful bloodlines roaming freely. There were rare and terrifying demonic spirits that looked down on the world. Each of them was peerless in their generation and their names were known throughout the lands.
From the Dark Forest to the central region of the Central Region, one would need to cross millions of mountains and a long river of the Central Region. Only then would one be considered to have arrived at the Central Region.
In the millions of mountains, demonic beasts roamed freely. There were countless ferocious beasts. Many of them were extremely powerful. Even Martial King experts would have to be careful if they wanted to cross.
The long river of the Central Region was definitely not easy to cross. It was a paradise for demonic beasts in the water. It was said that there were even terrifying flood dragons in the river of the Central Region.
Therefore, it was definitely not an easy task to cross from the Dark Forest to the Central Region. Every year, there would be many people who wanted to cross the mountains and rivers to the Central Region in search of opportunities and cultivation resources.
However, it was rare for one in a hundred to be able to reach the Central Region. The rest would become food for the demonic beasts in the millions of mountains and the long river of the Central Region.
Even those who were able to reach the Central Region might not be able to obtain everything they wanted. The Central Region was a place where the strong preyed on the weak and the strong were respected. It was extremely difficult to obtain an opportunity in a place where outstanding individuals and outstanding individuals were born.
The water surface stretched for tens of thousands of miles. It was boundless and calm. Occasionally, one could see some demonic beasts flapping their wings and flying away. On the surface of the lake, there were also many large ships passing by.
In a huge harbor, there were many buildings that were surrounded by mountains and rivers. Many ships were anchored in the harbor.
These ships seemed to be different from the wooden ships that ordinary people used to cross the river. The bodies of the ships were made of steel and engraved with runes. There were energy fluctuations and they were almost comparable to Spiritual Artifacts.
Some of the huge ships had majestic auras. They were definitely not any less precious than ordinary Spiritual Artifacts.
Early in the morning, the sun rose from the east. The first rays of the morning sun shone on the surface of the water.
