Chapter 13 Encounter with Immortals
"Zheng, there's a situation!" That evening, as Zheng was getting ready to cultivate, she heard Senior Brother Zhao's message and hurriedly opened the door and stepped out.
At this time, the protective array outside had already been withdrawn by Senior Brother Zhao, who did not hesitate to apply multiple talismans on himself and charged in a certain direction.
Zheng hesitated for a moment; she did not pack up her belongings, but then she thought that this place was an official residence, among the safest in the secular world.
Furthermore, with Senior Brother Zhao already having left ahead, she also endowed herself with several talismans and followed after him.
Their sect forbade foreign cultivators from entering secular areas within the Great Xia, where their sect held sway; cultivators had their own world.
The secular was the foundation of their sect; without ordinary people, how could the sect continue to exist?
The appearance of such non-sect cultivators within their territory meant that sect disciples had to investigate, and most importantly, eliminating these cultivators not only yielded their left-behind possessions but also rewards from the sect.
Ge Tianqing was a Loose Cultivator, passing through Great Xia on this occasion.
Passing through lands protected by the sect, in the secular world, was a most ordinary affair.
As long as he did not demonstrate cultivator methods, there would be no trouble at all.
However, if he wanted to avoid Great Xia's territory and the secular lands protected by the sect, the journey would take several times longer.
Thus, he chose the more direct route. As dusk approached, he saw Nanling City, a good place to resupply his food.
