Xiao Luo flew west at full speed after leaving the Stan City. Soon, Xiao Luo and the duck saw a beautiful mountain that appeared rich in resources.
As they soared through the clouds, they could see cold-water streams flowing. Through the fog, sun rays reflected red on the surface of the clear water of streams that flowed into a broader body of water, and above it, Hagdons and herons mingled as they flew through clouds.
It was an impressive mountain!
âMother ducker. These schools and sects are all in blessed locations with good Fengshui. Are they all so good at selecting proper sites?â asked the Duck Emperor. The Ziyue Cave Heaven sect, where they had been to, also sat on a peak and had a magnificent view. It was the same with the Danhui Sect.
âShut up! And do not talk nonsense later.â
Xiao Luo warned the Duck Emperor as they landed on the ground. Since they had arrived at the Danhui Sect, they wanted to keep a low profile.
Many people from the Stan City had traveled the road leading up to the Danhui Sect mountain peak to use the teleportation portal. Most of the travelers were cultivators and businesspeople, intending to go to other places. Cultivators were probably on travel adventures, while businesspeople traveled to conduct their businesses.
Teleportation portals could take people to various places. For instance, the portal at the Danhui Sect could take travelers to the remote Mu City located five hundred thousand kilometers away. It could also take travelers back to the region governed by the Ziyue Cave Heaven sect. These were just two of the destinations among the many places it could transport travelers. There were many routes to travel to the Holy land of the Light Clan. Zuo Xiangming chose the shortest route with the least transits for Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo joined the crowd of travelers and headed to the peak of the Danhui Sect.
The teleportation portal was on the empty field outside the gate of the sect. Disciples of the Danhui Sect would validate a travelerâs identity first before he could move onto the portal. Xiao Luo was not from the Arcana Land, so he was an illegal traveler. However, the Ziyue Cave Heaven sect had settled that matter for him. He had a small card stating that he was from the region governed by the Ziyue Cave Heaven sect.
Many people were waiting in that spacious field. The place was chaotic. Xiao Luo felt as if he had walked into the waiting hall of a bus station in the Original World.
Xiao Luo looked aloof and unfriendly. He did not want anyone to approach him, and hence, no one dared to speak to him. Xiao Luo did not wish to exchange any information with others. So, he just stood in a corner silently, waiting for the transmission to the Mu City.
âThe Song family no longer exists. It looks like the elder of the Danhui Sect has not heard the news yet. It means we can leave secretly. Quack, Quack,â said the Duck Emperor in a low voice. He stood on Xiao Luoâs shoulder after looking around at the peaceful Danhui Sect.
âIt would be the best,â said Xiao Luo quietly.
He hoped nothing would happen throughout their trip, and they could arrive at the Holy land of the Light Clan as quickly as possible.
At that moment, a disciple of the Danhui Sect shouted, âTravelers to the Mu City! Please get prepared!â
Those heading for the Mu City stood up. They queued up, ready to walk into that shining transmitting formation.
âYou must not use your True Inner Force during the transmission. Please bear that in mind. It is the number one principle to guarantee your safety!â
The disciple standing next to the teleportation portal repeated the same warning continuously. It reminded Xiao Luo of the crew on the long-distance bus stations in the Original World when they reminded passengers to fasten their seat belts.
Many experienced travelers who had been traveling around frequently got impatient when they had heard the repeated warning. A muscular man murmured, âThey say that every time I travel by the portal. It is freaking annoying. Why donât they stop it?â He laid his eyes on Xiao Luo, who was behind him. The muscular man asked Xiao Luo casually, âHey man, do I make any sense? What do you think?â
Xiao Luo smiled at him without answering his question.
The muscular man seemed to be interested in Xiao Luo. âMan, you are only a Martial Master in the middle stage. What are you going to do in Mu City? I can protect you if you wish.â
Xiao Luo remained silent. He only smiled at that man.
âShoot, he is deaf!â cursed the muscular man as he turned around.
âYouâre the one whoâs freaking deaf, you piece of sh*t!â swore the Duck Emperor angrily.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The muscular man turned around again. He stared at Xiao Luo unkindly. âDid you just curse at me?â he asked.
He certainly would not think it was the duck standing on Xiao Luoâs shoulder. After all, the duck looked harmless.
Xiao Luo did not want any trouble, so he smiled at the man again, shaking his head to deny the accusation. He then glimpsed at the Duck Emperor as a warning.
âHumph!â
Seeing that Xiao Luo did not dare confront him, the muscular man did not lash out. He just snorted and turned around.
However, the Duck Emperor felt intrigued and continued riling the man up. âYes, youâre the one Iâm cursing at, you piece of sh*t! Are you deaf? Your entire family must be deaf!â
The muscular man turned around immediately. Staring at Xiao Luo in anger, he said, âJerk, do you want to get punched?â
Xiao Luo stopped protecting the annoying duck. Pointing at the duck standing on his shoulder, he said, âHe is this one who cursed at you.â
A duck cursed me?
The muscular man threw a dubious look at the Duck Emperor. However, the Duck Emperor quacked with an innocent-looking face. The man felt irritated. He poked at Xiao Luoâs chest with his finger and said, âDarn it. Who the hell are you lying to? You do not even have the guts to admit what you did. Passing the buck to a duck. Shame on you!â
âQuack~ Quack~â
The Duck Emperor quacked at that moment, nodding its head.
âSee? Even the duck agrees with me,â said the muscular man.
Xiao Luo was speechless. He wanted to roast that annoying duck. âThe voice that cursed at you is not the same as mine. You canât tell?â
âWho canât fake his voice? I can speak in two different voices, too!â shouted the muscular man.
The man was unconvinced and did not doubt at all that it was Xiao Luo who had cursed at him. âJerk, apologize now, and Iâll forget about it. Otherwise, Iâll show you how what my fist is made of!â
âDo not dawdle. Keep moving. Do not fall behind!â a Danhui Sect disciple shouted at them.
The muscular man restrained himself at that point. He hurried to keep pace with the queue.
âThat piece of sh*t is funny,â said Duck Emperor. He burst out laughing on Xiao Luoâs shoulder.
âBelieve it or not, I will strangle you!â threatened Xiao Luo ferociously.
âHey, hey, hey⦠Thereâs no need to threaten me, little brat. I was having fun and trying to keep us entertained,â replied Duck Emperor as he rolled his eyes.
Xiao Luo gave him an icy stare. The annoying duck had a big mouth.
When Xiao Luo continued to walk forward, the Duck Emperor teased the muscular man once again. âHey, piece of sh*t. Did you not just say you want me to apologize? I am now f*cking apologizing to your grandmaâs legs. By the way, go back and ask your grandma whether the wound between her legs has recovered. I made that wound with a knife and caused it to bleed once a month. But I suppose it should have recovered by now.â
Darn it!
Enough is enough. The muscular man hit the ceiling.
âJerk, I will f*cking kill you!â
He snarled, and his eyes were red with fury. He turned around to throw his fist at Xiao Luoâs face.Xiao Luo acted as fast as lightning. He jabbed the index finger of his right hand into the muscular manâs chest and the man instantly froze. Then he grabbed the Duck Emperor by the neck, dumped him on the ground, and kicked him hard.
