Chapter 1278: Chapter 1277 Shuyang County, Basic Situation

Until the early morning of the next day, Xu Zii finally opened his eyes from cultivation.

His Divine Soul returned to the hillside.

Xu Zii stretched lazily, gazing into the distance, from here he could clearly see the entire scene of Fan Hai Fishing Village.

Fan Hai is the largest sea area in the Heavenly Dragon Empire.

It spans more than half of the Heavenly Dragon Empire’s territory, with the fishing village being a piece of land jutting out from this vast sea.

The area isn’t large either, the fishing village stands by the water, and the villagers here are quite diligent, going out to fish at dawn.

Then they sell them in Shuyang County to exchange for goods.

Xu Zii found that almost everyone here is mortal, with very few cultivators.

His gaze landed in front of the coastline, and he saw his only acquaintance here, Wu Zhaodi.

She was cultivating here.

Facing the vast Fan Sea, condensing water droplets that hovered around her continuously.

The water droplets were crystal clear, each one seed to contain a small transparent world.

The Fan Sea in front was stirring, and the waves began to swell magnificently.

With a wave of Wu Zhaodi’s hand, the entire sea exploded, and for a mont, the splashing water towered thousands of ters high.

Her realm should be around the Divine Vein, with Immortal Qi flickering in her eyes.

Only to see her take a long breath.

Turning her head, Xu Zii walked over with a light laugh.

“You’re following ,” Wu Zhaodi said, narrowing her eyes.

“I was just here for a walk, don’t overthink it,” Xu Zii shook his head and laughed.

Wu Zhaodi gave him a wary glance, then asked, “Did you sleep well last night?”

“Very comfortably, by the sea, refreshing and invigorating, haven’t felt this relaxed in a long ti,” Xu Zii said, facing the sea with a sigh.

“You don’t look like a good person at first glance,” Wu Zhaodi continued.

“You don’t look like a good person either, and I never claid to be one,” Xu Zii laughed.

“A cultivator with a Divine Vein hiding in a village of mortals.”

“None of your business,” Wu Zhaodi snorted coldly, preparing to leave.

Suddenly, a loud shout ca from afar.

A few people could be seen riding monstrous beasts from the distance, and as they got closer, the leader, a young man, beca visible.

The monstrous beast he rode was an Azure Cloud Step Bear, wearing a long robe made of blue silk.

He had a decent look, with a potential to be a pretty boy.

In his hand was a white folding fan with a watercolor landscape on the fan surface, and the people following him seed to be in the role of servants.

“Zhaodi,” the young man was shouting loudly.

Wu Zhaodi glanced over, her face instantly darkened, she turned her head pretending not to see, seemingly unwilling to deal with the youth.

“What’s this? A lover coming to see you?” Xu Zii teased from the side.

“You love seeing embarrassed, don’t you?” Wu Zhaodi glared at him, and imdiately said.

“Then don’t bla for being unkind.”

As she spoke, she actually walked over to Xu Zii, holding onto his arm, her usually expressionless face was now adorned with a smile.

The man in the blue robe just ca enthusiastically to the front, and seeing this scene, he was instantly dumbfounded.

Xu Zii seed to hear the sound of the man’s heart breaking on the spot.

He instantly understood that Wu Zhaodi intended to use him as a shield.

“Master Shu, what brings you here?” Wu Zhaodi acted as if she just noticed him, releasing Xu Zii’s arm and asked.

“I went to your house to find you, and you were not there, so I thought you might be at the seaside,” Master Shu responded woodenly.

“Oh, is there sothing you need?” Wu Zhaodi asked.

“This gentleman looks unfamiliar, haven’t seen him before?” Master Shu didn’t answer her question, instead, he looked at Xu Zii and asked with slight hostility.

“I’m Zhaodi’s brother, called Zhao Cai, you can call brother-in-law,” Xu Zii said.

Originally, Wu Zhaodi was looking at Xu Zii, ready to act a bit shy.

At this mont, hearing this, she was stunned for a mont.

Then she fiercely glared at Xu Zii.

“So you’re the brother-in-law,” Master Shu’s hostility on his face instantly disappeared, he quickly stepped forward to shake hands with Xu Zii.

“He’s not…” Wu Zhaodi was about to refute.

Directly interrupted by Xu Zii, “Sister, what was the na of the Cultivation Technique you were practicing earlier, it’s quite impressive.”

Wu Zhaodi knew that Xu Zii’s words were a threat to her.

Her hidden identity living in this fishing village, if exposed as a Divine Vein expert, would probably make life here difficult for her.

“Brother-in-law, you must not be familiar with our Shuyang County yet,” Master Shu said enthusiastically.

“Why not let host you and take you for a good ti in Shuyang County.”

“And you are?” Xu Zii looked at him and asked.

“It was my oversight, forgot to introduce myself,” Master Shu replied with an apologetic smile.

“My na is Shu Long. My father is the Commandery Prince of Shuyang County.”

“Promising,” Xu Zii patted his shoulder, replied.

“All relies on the little fa of my forefathers, not worth ntioning,” Shu Long shook his head slightly, smiling.

“Shuyang County is the head of the sixteen counties in the Heavenly Dragon Empire. Let host you, and let’s take a tour together.”

“If you want to go, you go, I’m not going,” Wu Zhaodi directly refused.

“Zhaodi, it’s rare for my brother-in-law to co by, we naturally have to accompany him well,” Shu Long explained.

“Call Miss Wu, do I know you well?” Wu Zhaodi retorted, turning her head and leaving directly.

She couldn’t be bothered to tangle with these two shaless guys.

“My younger sister was spoiled from a young age, don’t mind her,” Xu Zii comforted.

“I’m used to it, I just like Zhaodi’s straightforwardness,” Shu Long laughed without concern.

The two followed behind Wu Zhaodi, and they chatted rather congenially.

Xu Zii learned many things about the Catastrophe Demon Domain from him.

Since the Demon Race stopped caring about this world, the Heavenly Dragon Empire, led by the human race, and the Central Black Tortoise Empire, led by monstrous beasts, have beco the two core forces of this world.

Of course, there are still many sects here that can rival the two empires, but they are few and far between.

“Master Shu seems knowledgeable, have you ever seen the Demon Race?” Xu Zii asked.

“To be honest, Brother-in-law, I visited the main city, Heavenly Dragon City, of the Heavenly Dragon Empire in my childhood.

Naturally, I’ve seen the Demon Race, and it’s said that the current Pri Minister of our Heavenly Dragon Empire is a mber of the Demon Race,” Shu Long glanced around, and only said after ensuring no one was around.

“I’ve heard the Demon Race doesn’t ddle in worldly affairs, how could they enter the court as officials?” Xu Zii asked in confusion.

“What is said to not ddle in worldly affairs is sothing ordinary people cannot co into contact with,” Shu Long shook his head and replied.

“In fact, in these powerful forces, there are traces of the Demon Race.”

Xu Zii nodded, thinking to himself, that makes sense, how could the Demon Race possibly not care about this place.

The two had already arrived in front of the house where Wu Zhaodi lived while discussing.

This was a newly-built wooden house, not very large.
