Chen Ping'an chose to travel directly to Green Cottage Town. Moreover, he wouldn't necessarily follow the so-called official road that had been painstakingly opened up by the Flax Robe Sect.

The young man who was clearly a disciple from a large sect joined the group of cultivators consisting of a ghost cultivator and a Militarian itinerant cultivator, and this newly formed group decided to make their way to Orchid Scent Town first. As for whether they took the risk to travel to Green Cottage Town afterward, this was hard to say.

What surprised Chen Ping'an slightly was the decision of the two Dao partners. Their cultivation bases didn't appear very high, but they surprisingly chose the dangerous path to Green Cottage Town as well.

It was extremely likely that the two of them were vagrant cultivators, and they spoke quietly to each other as they held hands and walked together toward the north. They were encouraging each other, and even though they appeared a little eager and hopeful, there was also a hint of steely resolve in their eyes.

They were truly risking everything for the sake of making money.

Chen Ping'an increased his speed and walked in front of them, creating a large gap between the two parties. Him walking in front of them was definitely better than him walking behind them. At the very least, it would eliminate any need for them to be suspicious of him.

The Dao partners also slowed down, whether intentionally or not, and they frequently stopped to either scoop up some soil or pull out some grass. In fact, they would even dig holes and look for stones, being picky and choosy about what they collected.

The distance between them grew greater and greater.

When the vagrant cultivator Dao partners raised their heads again, the figure of the young wanderer was already nowhere to be seen.

The sky in Malicious Ghost Valley was grey and gloomy, appearing as if it were overcast and about to rain. This environment somewhat limited one's vision.

Chen Ping'an walked faster and faster.

There was a long and winding small path to Green Cottage Town, and this path did its best to avoid the many large and small cities in the southern region of Malicious Ghost Valley. However, living people from the yang world walking through Malicious Ghost Valley, which was formed from the resentment of dead people, were like fireflies fluttering through the night sky. They were as eye-catching as could be.
