Hearing what Zhuo Ma said, Sima You Yue was shocked. She asked,
What about the Moonbow Clan or Cloud Cave?
Zhuo Ma shook her head, saying,
I’ve never heard of those.
These were the main powers in the central continent, but she had actually never heard of them?
Could it be that this wasn’t the Primordial Lands?
Is this the Primordial Lands?
She continued asking.
Of course!
Zhuo Ma said,
What, are you not someone from the Primordial Lands?
It was only after hearing that this was the Primordial Lands that Sima You Yue released a breath. Saying,
I just got to the Primordial Lands. Because of a problem, I didn’t reach my destination.
Were you aiming to go to the Divine Devil Valley?
Zhuo Ma asked with a smile.
Sima You Yue nodded and did not deny it.
Is this place the central region or the outskirts?
Seeing that Zhuo Ma wasn’t too powerful, she probably wasn’t someone from the inner regions.
This is the outer region.
Zhuo Ma said,
Furthermore, this place is really small. We’ve never heard of the Divine Devil Valley.
Divine Devil Valley is one of the powers in the central regions. It’s fine that you don’t know.
Sima You Yue said lightly.
Although she said that she didn’t mind, she was suffering bitterly in her heart. Wanting to reach the central regions from the outer regions was definitely not going to be an easy feat.
She had never come to the outer regions, so she had to find a way to get to the central region.
And that also depended on her knowing where she was!
Zhuo Ma saw the worry in Sima You Yue’s eyes. She said,
Don’t worry. We may not know, but there will be other larger areas that will. You can head to those big cities once your wounds are healed.
I have no other choice.
Sima You Yue sighed,
Can you tell me about your situation here?
Her wounds were pretty serious, so she could only rest for a few days.
Okay.
Zhuo Ma knew that she came up from the lower continent, so she definitely wouldn’t know anything about this place. As such, she briefly explained about the situation here.
Sima You Yue was even more grieved when she heard the explanation.
In the previous world, she heard before that the surrounding areas were huge. She had always assumed them to be exaggerations, but she never expected that it was true.
If these outer areas were any point of measurement, the mountains stretched endlessly to the sky, the number of mountain ridges were immeasurable and the little and big powers… a little bit of power was overtaken by the next higher rank just like that.
Because the surrounding area was too huge, people like Zhuo Ma had never gone too far in their entire lives. This was because teleportation arrays were only found within the sect. How would they let those sect arrays be used by the average person.
Those teleportation arrays cannot be used by outsides. Unless you are able to enter a sect and become their core member, they might let you use the teleportation array for whatever reason.
Zhuo Ma said,
Over here, only the Heavenly Tiger Hall has a teleportation array. However, they aren’t easy to talk to.
Sima You Yue saw Zhuo Ma’s expression and knew that the Heavenly Tiger Hall was a little bit more than just difficult to talk to. They probably weren’t a great power.
Just know, I heard you all talking about the Jiang clan and all. What was that about?
She asked.
Zhuo Ma wanted to take the chance to tell her, to let her prepare herself, so she said,
The Jiang Clan and our Zhuo clan are both clans under the Heavenly Tiger Hall. We are under the Heavenly Tiger Hall’s protection, but have to give them proper tributes at an ascertain timing. If we are unable to meet their request, we will lose the Heavenly Tiger’s protection and will be bullied by other powers.
Sima You Yue knew about this kind of lifestyle. It was the same in some areas of the central region. Like the Zong clan was dependent on the Yin Yang clan, and the Yin Yang clan was dependent on other power.
That Jiang clan has always been against our Zhuo clan. Two years ago, our tributes to the Heavenly Tiger Hall were either stolen by them or destroyed by them. It rendered us unable to meet that Heavenly Tiger Hall’s wishes these two years. This year, the Heavenly Tiger Hall has given us an ultimatum. If we are unable to give a few good things as tribute this year, they will no longer protect us.
Zhuo Ma huffed.
You’ve gotten good things this year?
Sima You Yue guessed.
Yep.
Zhuo Ma nodded,
We had a fortuitous encounter and found a little mine in the desert. Although that mine isn’t big, the stones in there aren’t bad. It actually produced a rare crystal. As such, we managed to risk it and dig out a few crystals from the mine. My dad said that, if we are able to give this to them, we will be able to pass this trial.
Sima You Yue was a little curious. They were able to find so many crystals, and for a little clan like them, this was a huge fortune.
However, although they got it, they still didn’t possess it.
That Jiang clan will rob you?
She asked.
We received news yesterday that said the Jiang clan knows about what happened at the mine. They’re prepared to rob us along the way.
Zhuo Ma was incensed,
That Jiang clan has a Deity clan that keeps stealing from us. Once we become strong, we will definitely exterminate them!
There weren’t that many ranks about the divine rank. It was Divine King, Divine Overlord, Divine Saint and Divine Paragon. Within each rank, there was also rank one to nine, with beginner, intermediate and advanced.
The strength of those in the Deity clan could be considered an expert in this kind of place.
We will have to pass by the Jiang clan’s territory, so it might get dangerous.
Zhuo Ma said,
However, if we let you off at Evernew City, that city lord isn’t a good guy and likes guys. You’re so handsome, so it’s even more dangerous.
Thank you.
Sima You Yue said gratefully.
In her previous world, it was a dog eat dog world. Who knew that she would be able to meet such a kind lady here.
What are you thanking me for. Actually, it’s also really dangerous for you to be with us. Although my dad said that we will let you off at the city after Evernew City, we will be entering the Jiang clan’s territory the moment we leave Evernew City. If they come a little earlier, we…
Zhuo Ma didn’t complete her sentence, but Sima You Yue knew what she meant.
However, she wasn’t worried at all.
They still had two more days, right? Who knew how much she would recover in two days.
After two days, she would be able to move again. She was still unable to open her spirit pagoda, but she was able to fully control her interspatial ring.
They didn’t enter Evernew City, but planned to travel along one of the roads along the mountains of Evernew City. This way, they would be able to avoid going in.
It was getting late, and they found an empty place to rest.
Before they entered the mountain, Sima You Yue earlier beast cart had already been abandoned. Because the road was rugged, the beast cart had no way of crossing.
It was a good thing her body had already pretty much recovered. Although her spiritual energy was yet to fully recover, she had no problems moving.
When they were pitching camp, Zhuo Ma saw Sima You Yue walked one circle around the area. However, she didn’t think too much about it.
Sima You Yue came back to the campfire and sat down. Zhuo Yang looked coldly at her, showing his dissatisfaction.
He really couldn’t understand why Zhuo Ma definitely had to keep this guy around! That damn woman!
When night came, everyone went to rest. However, Sima You Yue suddenly opened her eyes and looked towards Evernew City.
