"You still have the face to show yourself!"
This time, Qin Xu did not hold back. With a wave of his sleeve, an unparalleled force immediately shot out and struck the black fog that had floated out from the dark corner.
"Chi …"
The force was quietly dissolved by the energy that surged out from the black fog. At the same time, a hoarse voice was emitted from within.
"Palace Master, why are you so angry? Even we did not know about this matter. We did not expect that someone from the Alchemist Alliance would actually save him. This brat is really lucky!"
"Hmph, why didn't you show yourself earlier? If the two of us joined hands, would we be afraid of him alone! Now that you have seen your prey escape from under your nose, are you happy? "
Qin Xu's heart was filled with anger. If it wasn't for the fact that this thing in front of him that was neither human nor ghost was timid, Xiao Yan would have already fallen into their trap and the reward that they had promised him would have already landed in his hands. He would not be in this situation where he was actually chased away by the other party.
"Palace Master, you should understand that in the situation just now, once I show myself, my identity and location will immediately be exposed. At that time, the various factions will shift their attention to this place. Not only will we be exposed in front of everyone, even your Northern Wasteland Palace will definitely become the target of everyone. At that time, forget about capturing Xiao Yan, it will be extremely difficult to even protect yourself. We have prepared in the Northern Region for so many years. We definitely cannot lose everything because of a moment of recklessness. Otherwise, even if we can hide from these people, once the higher-ups punish us, both of us will not be able to escape death!"
When these words were spoken, the expression on Qin Xu's face was slightly startled. After pondering for a while, he coldly snorted and said,
"Now that that brat has escaped, what should we do next?"
"After leaving this place, we will have no idea of his whereabouts and will not be able to find him for the time being. As for this matter, I will report it to the higher-ups. Let's leave it at that for the time being."
A voice that sounded like an order was emitted from the black fog. When Qin Xu heard this, the expression on his face became somewhat unnatural. However, in the end, he remained silent and did not say anything.
.....
In the blink of an eye, one and a half months had passed.
After a month of bumpy travel, Xiao Yan finally arrived at the extreme north of the Northern Wilderness, which was also the North Sea.
The boundless sea filled Xiao Yan's eyes. Waves rolled on the surface of the sea, and the sound of crashing against the shore could be heard incessantly. Above the dark blue sky, there were large pagoda-like clouds that were as white as milk. From time to time, seabirds would fly past the surface of the sea, and their reflections in the water would complement each other.
At this moment, the thing that appeared in front of Xiao Yan's eyes was an enormous city that sat on the surface of the sea with the exception of the endless sea on both sides.
Beijun City!
This was the last checkpoint to enter the North Sea. At the same time, everyone who wanted to enter the North Sea had to pass through this checkpoint.
Beijun City bordered the North Sea to the north and the Northern Barren Territory to the south. It was the main route between the North Sea and the Northern Barren Territory. People from the Northern Barren Territory could not enter the North Sea without Beijun City. At the same time, people from the North Sea could not return to the Northern Barren Territory.
The reason for this was because the North Sea was so vast that even a Dou Di could not easily pass through it. If one wanted to travel between the two places, one would need to be at least at the Origin Transformation Realm.
Just this point alone was enough to show how vast the North Sea was.
Therefore, any expert below the Origin Transformation Realm could only travel by boat if they wanted to pass through the North Sea. In the entire Northern Barren Territory, all the boats that entered the North Sea were under the control of a company called Ryuzawa Square in Beijun City.
It could be said that almost all the boats on the sea were under the control of Ryuzawa Square. It was also because of this that Ryuzawa Square became the number one power in Beijun City.
After arriving in front of the city gate, Xiao Yan was able to see a gray-robed old man guarding the city gate at a glance. From the latter's aura, he was clearly a six star Dou Di. This kind of cultivation could already be considered extremely powerful in this place.
At a glance, Xiao Yan could see a boat-shaped badge on the old man's chest. This was the symbol of Ryuzawa Square.
This old man was someone from Ryuzawa Square. At this moment, every person who entered the city had to pay fifty Low Tier Spirit Stones.
Xiao Yan was no exception as he walked closer and paid the Spirit Stones. The grey-robed old man in front of him seemed to have seen that the young man in front of him was not an ordinary person. He cupped his hands together and smiled.
"Mister, there is a relay station that I have set up in Ryuzawa Square at the center of the city. You can rest there."
"Thank you for the information. Also, I would like to ask, where can I board a boat that enters the North Sea from Beijun City?"
With a smile, Xiao Yan asked in a flat tone.
"Mister, you have come at a bad time today. The nearest boat is currently under repair and the departure time will be delayed. Please wait for a few days. Once the boat is repaired, we will be able to depart."
Hearing this, the grey-robed old man cupped his hands together and said apologetically.
"Delayed?"
His brows furrowed. He did not expect his luck to be so bad. He had just arrived at Beijun City and he actually encountered such a situation.
"How long will it take for your boat to be repaired?"
With a frown, Xiao Yan asked again.
"I am not too sure about this. Our boat is supported by a formation. Because it has been in use for too long, it often needs to be repaired. I am not proficient in the repair of boats. I only know that it used to take three to five days. If it takes longer, it might take ten days to half a month. I hope Mister will forgive me. If Mister does not mind, you can stay in the city for a few days and there should be a result."
The grey-robed old man shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.
"Formation, huh …"
Xiao Yan muttered softly. Immediately after, after thanking the old man, he entered the city.
Seeing Xiao Yan enter the city, the old man helplessly shook his head again and bitterly sighed in his heart.
"After experiencing so many attacks from the sea beasts, the damage to the boat this time seems to be not small. Otherwise, with the president's ability, he would not need to invite other formation masters to help. However, those guys are not easy to invite, they are a group of tigers and wolves …"
After entering the city, Xiao Yan somewhat helplessly walked into the city. His heart recalled the words that the old man had said earlier. Finally, he helplessly sighed.
Xiao Yan did not listen to the old man's suggestion. He randomly found a wine shop in the city and planned to rest for a day to eliminate the fatigue he had accumulated from traveling for over a month. He would wait until the next day to inquire about the situation.
