Chapter 142: Assistance
Li Lang’s group continued their travels toward Polarity City. It was a neutral territory that belonged to neither the righteous sects nor demonic organizations. Cultivators from both factions didn’t dare to feud within its territory.
“We should be donning some disguises before we get too close,” Li Lang declared.
His two companions, Long Yi and Wei Ping, nodded, while Sima Xue looked on in bewilderment.
“Disguises? For what?”
“Nothing too serious. Just some cloaks and straw hats. We’d rather not flaunt our presence entering from Demonic Cultivator Territory. It would give the righteous sect a reason to find issues with us later on.”
“Hmm, I’d say just forget about those stuck-up fools.”
Li Lang simply let out a chuckle and didn’t elaborate. There were too many reasons why he would continue visiting the orthodox sects’ territories. Not only did they possess the greater community of cultivators on Violet Isle, but they also had access to the most resources. Even if he now possessed the pocket realm, now known as the Crucible, Li Lang still desired access to modern cultivation techniques and more materialistic resources.
Then there was the issue of finding the Abductress, which was another can of worms that Li Lang wouldn’t want to share.
Silence permeated through the Skyrunner as Li Lang stayed silent. Before any of its occupants could strike up another conversation, Sima Xue suddenly snapped to their right. She wore a deep frown and began steering them to a higher altitude.
The trio could sense the seriousness in her demeanor and Li Lang stepped forth as their representation for clarification.
“Something wrong?”
“Hm, not for us. Another group over there seems to be having some trouble.”
