They kept moving forward in the desert, and Fengjiu kept counting the time. After they had been walking and stopping for four days and three nights, one day, they finally saw a city while flying on the sword.
"Master, look, this is the city we saw a few days ago!" Ye Feifei said happily. He had been exposed to the sun for the past few days with nothing to block his view, and he had become a lot darker.
Not only her, but also Wang Yu had become much darker. Only Feng Jiu, Du Fan and Leng Shuang remained the same. It was not for any other reason, but because the three of them had a high level of cultivation, and the circulation of their own spiritual power naturally formed a protective layer on them.
"Finally we found a place to rest. This journey was really difficult!" Du Fan sighed with a smile on his face.
"I just want to have a good sleep now." Wang Yu said, his lips a little chapped. Even though he had plenty of water to drink along the way, being exposed to the sun like this was too much for him to bear.
“Let’s find a place to have a good rest once we get inside, and we can think of other things later.” Feng Jiu said as she sped up the flying feathers until she arrived in front of the city gate, then she retracted the feathers and landed.
"The City That Never Sleeps." Fengjiu looked at the three words on the city gate and read them out softly.
"Why is the city gate closed? And there's no one here?" Leng Shuang looked around. The city gate was closed and there was no one to be seen.
"According to the time, it should be night time now." Du Fan said, and walked forward and patted the city gate: "Is there anyone here? Open the city gate."
However, the only response he got was silence. He took a step back, looked at the city wall, and turned back to Fengjiu and said, "Master, it seems that there is a barrier in this city." If there is no barrier, they can go in directly from the city wall.
"Yes, it's a defensive barrier." Fengjiu looked up and said, "Let's go to the wall and wait! It's cooler there because there's no sun." As she spoke, she walked towards the wall.
Seeing this, they followed and went to rest by the wall. There was no sun here, so it was cooler to sit quietly at this time.
They took out water from the space and drank it, then rested for a while and leaned against the wall with their eyes closed.
After an unknown amount of time, the city gate opened and a team of about a hundred people walked out. When they saw Feng Jiu and the others in the corner, surprise appeared on their faces.
"Huh? Why are there a few outsiders here?"
“They’re really good looking.”
"Their cultivation seems to be very strong."
Fengjiu and the others opened their eyes the moment the city gate opened. When they saw the people dressed in all white, their eyes flickered with a hint of surprise.
As those people were talking, the two middle-aged men in the lead shouted in a calm voice: "Okay, everyone, be quiet!"
As they were talking, the two middle-aged men looked at each other, walked towards Feng Jiu and the others, bowed, and asked, "Excuse me, where are you from? And why are you resting under this city wall?"
Fengjiu stood up, raised her hand to brush off the dust on her dress, and said slowly: "We came from afar and passed by here. We wanted to find a place to rest, but the city gate was not open, so we rested here for a while."
