Chapter 65 - 58 Turmoil Insider_2
Walking into this city, the streets were bustling with people and traffic, lively and vibrant.
On both sides, buildings housed various shops, including restaurants, inns, as well as stores selling a range of weapons and demon beast medicinal materials and furs.
Despite the prosperity, few dared to cause trouble. Rumor had it that the City Lord of Demon Suppression City was a super expert nearing the Martial God Realm. He had issued strict orders: offenders would be severely punished, and even prominent national powers and sects didn’t dare stir up any trouble.
It wasn’t just because of the City Lord’s immense strength, but also because Xiafeng Country, this great nation, could annihilate any rebellious forces with its wrath.
The garrison of hundreds of thousands of troops also acted as a deterrent.
Ye Chen climbed up to a high-standard tavern in the city and called for the best wine and dishes. As he dined alone, he kept watch and listened carefully, gathering various pieces of information about the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
Taverns, where people congregated, often served as the best places to collect various kinds of information, where one could learn many useful things.
"Sigh, another demon beast turmoil is coming. Who knows how many will die this time; it’s always the same," lamented an elderly man in black clothes with white hair, sitting at a nearby table. Despite the delicious food on his table, his face was filled with worry, the food tasteless.
He was a native of Demon Suppression City, having lived in this ancient city for many years, with generations rooted here. He had strong feelings for it and did not wish to see it ravaged by a demon beast turmoil.
