Chapter 96.3: Third Level pt. 1
Jin County was a county in the southeast of the Great Zhao Kingdom. It was called Jin County because the county was located next to the Jin River.
In the early morning, a thin layer of smoky mist shrouded the water surface of the Jin River. At the far horizon where the water and sky met, a merchant ship slowly approached and docked at the pier before long.
An old man dressed in a short robe got off the ship carrying a bag, followed by two young men in their twenties behind him. The two young men were none other than Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi, who were still in a state of ignorance at this time.
Just now, after they entered the rock wall that suddenly cracked open, they inexplicably appeared on the ship. Just as they were about to communicate, an old man found them, saying that they had arrived in Jin County, and asked the two young masters to disembark.
Young masters? It seemed that they had a new identity in the illusory realm.
Jing Yue only knew that the third level was an illusionary realm, but the exact changes were unspecified. After all, the verses recorded on several maps were never repeated. In other words, the illusions experienced by everyone in the past were different.
At this time, the old man came forward again, handed the bag to the two of them, and said in a guilty tone, “Eldest young master, little young master, this one can only send you here. Although Madam is no longer alive, her spirit in heaven will surely watch over you. You must pull yourselves together!”
What the heck? Don’t understand! To save the trouble, Jing Yue simply hypnotized the old man.
Although he was not good at hypnosis, it was easy to compel a mortal with no cultivation. Seeing the old man’s eyes started to go slack, he asked, “Who are you and who are we? Why are we here?”
