Chapter 134 - 4: Establishment of the Ghost Sect
These children, they are actually refugees from the Central Plains.
Lan Cai’er showed a look of surprise when she noticed the appearance and accent of these children.
The Central Plains has always been a mysterious place.
Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er could only learn through some books that it is a region located at the very center of the mainland.
In recent years, evil alchemists in the Central Plains have been resurgent, and many cults in their pursuit of cultivating evil techniques, have not hesitated to harm living spirits, using young children for alchemy and artifact refining. This has caused a large number of residents in the Central Plains area to become displaced and flee to several great countries including Daxia.
It’s just that Daxia Country has a rule that if refugees do not have a skill, they may not enter cities, and can only beg for a living in the countryside.
Previously, Lan Cai’er thought that Yan Che, a man standing tall at over six feet with great strength, did not work or enlist in the military likely because he feared hardship and was lazy. Now, it looks like it was indeed because of these children.
He had a big appetite, and even if he found a job that could support himself, he wouldn’t have any extra money to take care of these children.
When Yan Che saw the group of children, his mouth opened wide, revealing his white teeth.
These children, indeed, were all refugees from the Central Plains; their parents either died of illness along the way, or upon reaching Daxia, were sold as slaves.
