In the end, Qin Yi slightly won, and the two planned to pass directly through the Central Continent.
After eating and settling the bill, the two left the Imperial City.
Yun ngyao looked at the receding Imperial City, "Suddenly leaving like this, I do feel a bit reluctant."
"This proves that you're a sentintal creature."
"You're the creature." Yun ngyao rolled her eyes, "I've been gone a long ti; I wonder how the clan is doing?"
Qin Yi laughed, "Don't worry! Maybe everyone thinks you're dead."
Yun ngyao's pretty face filled with anger, "Damn Qin Yi, you just have to upset , don't you?"
"Yes."
Yun ngyao: "…"
Qin Yi, however, laughed very happily.
Yun ngyao said, frustrated, "It's going to be boring next. We'll be facing thousands of miles of wilderness, mountains, forests, fierce birds, and beasts."
"It's okay; maybe you'll find true love along the way."
Yun ngyao was taken aback, "This place is deserted, where would I find true love?"
Qin Yi said seriously, "Aren't there fierce birds and beasts?"
Yun ngyao pondered for a mont, then imdiately understood, "Damn Qin Yi, I'll hit you to death."
Qin Yi bolted away.
The two chased and fled, quickly leaving the Imperial City behind them. Their past affairs there were no longer of concern.
The Moon Desolate Domain is more than ten thousand miles away from the Central Continent.
…
…
Ten days later, between the mountains, by a small stream, smoke curled up.
"Today, we can improve the taste a bit." Qin Yi sat beside the campfire, roasting a plump fish with a branch.
Yun ngyao was uninterested, "It's all roasted; what's the difference?"
These days, they had little but wild fruits and barbecue, almost getting sick of it. However, Qin Yi's barbecue skills were continuously improving.
"Of course, it's different. Previously, we ate things that ran on the ground; this ti, it's from the water. Next ti, I'll get you sothing that flies in the sky. As the saying goes, beasts in the mountains, swallows in the clouds, cattle and sheep on land, fresh from the sea. Different every day, it's practically an Immortal's enjoynt."
Yun ngyao looked disgusted, "But I want to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."
Qin Yi: "…"
"I also want to eat Ghost Jumps Over the Wall."
Yun ngyao curiously asked, "What is Ghost Jumps Over the Wall?"
"It's when you get roasted on a rack and scare ghosts away as they jump over the wall."
Yun ngyao: "…"
"Damn Qin Yi, do you believe I'll dig a hole and bury you?"
"I don't believe it; you can't beat ."
Yun ngyao rolled her eyes dramatically, her cheeks puffed out like a goldfish.
After eating and drinking their fill, the two continued on their way.
…
…
That day, the two finally saw a city.
"Wow, finally seeing people again," Yun ngyao said excitedly.
From the Moon Desolate Domain to here, it took them three full months, encountering only wild beasts. They hadn't seen a soul aside from that.
"Tianming," Yun ngyao said, looking at the two large characters on the city gate.
"It's the Tianming of the Sword Sect."
"What do you an?" Yun ngyao asked, puzzled.
Qin Yi shook his head, "I'm not sure either. But from the literal aning, it should be the Sword Sect's Tianming City."
Yun ngyao looked carefully and found two red characters above Tianming… Sword Sect.
Yun ngyao exclaid, "Never mind, let's go in first. Humans are indeed social creatures; after not seeing people for several months, suddenly seeing them feels so heartwarming."
Lines of black appeared on Qin Yi's forehead; he thought those wild beasts were easier to get along with. At least they weren't as conniving, and in a pinch, they were good for filling the belly.
"Stop!"
Just as the two were about to enter the city, the guard at the gate stopped them.
The leader of the guards swaggered over, a flash of jealousy in his eyes when he saw Qin Yi, as Qin Yi was extrely handso. When he saw Yun ngyao, his eyes were glued.
Qin Yi frowned, "What's the matter?"
The guard snapped to, "Entry fee, three silver coins each."
The guard spoke to Qin Yi, but his eyes stayed glued on Yun ngyao.
"Don't you want your eyes?" Yun ngyao said angrily.
The guard chuckled, "You're joking, Fairy. I still need these eyes to look at fairies like you; how could I not want them?"
Yun ngyao was furious.
Qin Yi, however, stopped her and, looking at the other's attire, frowned, "Are you from the City Lord's Mansion?"
"City Lord's Mansion?" The guard looked at Qin Yi like an idiot. "Here, the Tianming Sect makes the rules."
Tianming Sect? Qin Yi couldn't understand why soone would use that na. Turns out they were from a sect, no wonder they weren't wearing armor.
Qin Yi tossed six silver coins over, pulling the fuming Yun ngyao into the city.
"Why did you stop from teaching him a lesson?"
Qin Yi smirked, "He was complinting your beauty; why teach him a lesson?"
"But he was leering at with ill intentions for sure."
Qin Yi chuckled, "Even you don't have good intentions, and you expect others to?"
Yun ngyao's face blushed, "Neither of us are, but I know how dirty you n's minds are."
"The love of beauty is universal; allowing yourself to look beautiful ans allowing others to look at you. Otherwise, what's the point of your beauty, like fine clothes worn at night?"
Yun ngyao thought for a mont, "Makes sense. Ah, being pretty is a sin. Unfortunately, this lady is destined to be unattainable for you dirty n."
Qin Yi: "…"
"You really bloom with a little sunshine and lay eggs when given a basket."
"You're the hen. Don't think I don't know you're insulting ."
Qin Yi laughed, "I see your IQ's been improving lately, which is a good thing."
"I've always been smart, just…" As she saw the mischievous smile at Qin Yi's lips, she exploded, "Oh, you an I was brainless before, right?"
"No, absolutely not, I'm complinting your brains before. If my brain is worth ten thousand gold coins, yours is worth a hundred thousand."
Yun ngyao suspiciously asked, "Why?"
Qin Yi wickedly smiled, "Because your brain is new, never used, definitely worth more than mine."
Yun ngyao took a while to react, "You're insulting again, aren't you?"
"No, I'm praising you."
"Pah, if you're praising , pigs will climb trees."
Qin Yi couldn't help but laugh, then looked at Yun ngyao, "Hungry?"
Yun ngyao rubbed her stomach, "Of course, I want a big al. I'm sick of barbecue every day."
"Let's go, fill our bellies first."
The two asked a passerby, and the best restaurant in Tianming City was the Four-direction Building.
Qin Yi smiled and shook his head, "A restaurant daring to use 'Four-direction' must have either great food or an unusual background. Let's go, I'll treat you to a big al at the Four-direction Building."
