37: Has it been exposed?

The Amethyst Winged Lion King briefly stopped at the edge of the desert, where the surrounding climate was too hot.

“It’s so hot!”

Without the protection of a shield, crystal beads of sweat continuously seeped from Xiao Yi Xian’s forehead, wetting her purple hair, making it feel somewhat sticky.

She loved cleanliness, but seeing Gu Fei deep in thought, she didn't disturb him.

She just silently fanned herself by shaking her wrist.

Although she had prepared beforehand, there were always oversights. Xiao Yi Xian’s clothes were slightly thick at the moment.

Qingshan Town was like spring all year round, so her clothing was a bit thicker.

But it was terribly hot here.

Gu Fei turned to look at her, then waved his right hand.

A barrier of Qi enveloped the two, and Xiao Yi Xian quickly felt the climate become much more comfortable.

“Xiao Yi Xian generated a joyful emotion, emotion value +100.”

After adjusting, the Amethyst Winged Lion King flew back into the sky, heading towards Gu Fei’s destination.

Gu Fei’s first destination was Hai Bodong, whose cultivation had been Sealed by Queen Medusa, and who was hiding in Mo City.

Watching the yellow city gradually appear in his sight, Gu Fei didn’t slow down, directly ordering the Amethyst Winged Lion King to fly over it.

Xiao Yi Xian sat on the Lion King’s back, craning her head out to look at the city not far away.

Her pupils excitedly dilated, and she was practically leaning out completely.

“Xiao Yi Xian generated an excited emotion, emotion value +100.”

“Brother Gu Fei, the desert scenery is so beautiful. It’s my first time seeing a city in the desert!”

Gu Fei helplessly pulled her back.

“Be careful. If you fall, I won’t catch you.”

Xiao Yi Xian pouted and obediently sat back, though her expression still lingered on the view below with reluctance.

Her eyebrows arched high, and a lovely pink blush suddenly bloomed on her face, her eyes wide.

“Xiao Yi Xian generated a shy emotion, emotion value +100.”

“Brother Gu Fei, those people are dressed... why are they dressed so, so revealingly!”

Gu Fei looked in the direction she indicated, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

Although he knew the descriptions in the original work, it was his first time seeing it with his own eyes, and he couldn't help but feel as intrigued as Xiao Yi Xian.

As they gradually approached the city, more and more passersby appeared.

Most of the men among these passersby were shirtless.

Their skin was dark and lean, and they looked quite uninhibited at first glance.

And the occasional women passing by, although their skin was also slightly dark, had a somewhat sexy bronze hue.

The women here were not as reserved and shy as those within the Empire; a tight leather outfit barely covered their chests and a small area below.

However, their slender waists were boldly exposed.

Long and taut thighs were also only covered by short skirts or shorts, and as they walked, their snake-like waists swayed, exuding a unique charming allure and style.

This style was very much like modern times.

Gu Fei was accustomed to reserved and modest attire, so when he occasionally saw these provocatively dressed women, his gaze paused.

“Xiao Yi Xian generated a jealous emotion, emotion value +100.”

Xiao Yi Xian naturally noticed his reaction, bit her lower lip, and sulkily turned her head away.

The next moment, Gu Fei retracted his gaze, sighed helplessly, and looked at Xiao Yi Xian with amusement.

He muttered to himself, “They’re just alright. They’re not as good-looking as our Xiao Yi Xian.”

“Xiao Yi Xian generated a smug emotion, emotion value +100.”

Only then did Xiao Yi Xian let out a soft hmph and turn her head back.

They bantered with smiles, and Xiao Yi Xian looked down at the yellow city, whose specific scale was now visible.

Inside the city, unique desert-style urban architecture appeared in their vision, with peculiar-looking buildings that were a sight to behold.

Above the city gate, two massive, pale red characters were carved into the city wall, and from a distance, they exuded a faint sense of bloodiness.

“Mo City...”

Gu Fei murmured softly, then smiled.

As the Amethyst Winged Lion King flew closer and gradually lowered its flight altitude, the originally relaxed city guards and pedestrians outside were filled with terror.

“Gu Rao generated a fearful emotion, emotion value +0.1.”

“Mo Sha generated a scared emotion, emotion value +0.1.”

Most people had never seen a Demonic Beast as massive as the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

Gu Fei's gaze swept over them indifferently. Soon after, the Lion King stopped directly above the city.

Next, Gu Fei embraced Xiao Yi Xian's waist and descended through the Void Realm, landing in the city.

The city guards, who were originally bullies to the weak and cowards to the strong, merely glanced at him with apprehension, cowering and not daring to speak.

His appearance immediately caused a huge sensation in the city.

“Yuan Jing generated a shocked emotion, emotion value +0.1.”

“Huang Lian generated an admiring emotion, emotion value +0.1.”

The desert environment was isolated; outsiders generally wouldn't come in, and people inside wouldn't go out.

People in such a place had never seen such a grand display.

A young man who appeared to be only sixteen or seventeen years old not only possessed such a terrifying flying Demonic Beast but could even fly through the air.

It was simply unbelievable!

Xiao Yi Xian chuckled.

These people's reactions were exactly the same as hers when she first witnessed Gu Fei's strength, so it was perfectly normal.

After all, anyone who saw a Prodigy like Gu Fei would be startled.

Next, Gu Fei paused his steps and called out to a passerby.

“Excuse me, where is the map shop?”

The passerby had just seen this composed young man leap from the enormous Demonic Beast and descend effortlessly from mid-air to the ground.

He dared not not answer such a powerful individual and immediately told Gu Fei the locations of the best map shops in the city.

“Let’s go, let’s eat something first!”

After getting directions, Gu Fei didn’t rush to find it; instead, he planned to take Xiao Yi Xian to a restaurant in the city for a meal.

After all, they had been traveling for a long time. He was fine, but Xiao Yi Xian’s cultivation was not as high as his, and she was probably hungry.

At this moment, because the Lion King was still hovering above the city, everyone in the city was extremely wary.

Fearful glances were constantly cast towards the massive flying Demonic Beast in the sky. The Demonic Beast itself was calm, but the pedestrians below were probably terrified.

Even if it had no desire to attack, it was like a knife hanging over their heads; how could they not be afraid?

Xiao Yi Xian hesitated for a moment and said to Gu Fei, “Why don’t we let the Lion King go outside for now? It will scare the people in the city.”

“Alright.”

Hearing this, Gu Fei nodded.

Since Xiao Yi Xian brought it up, although he didn’t care about it, he readily agreed.

He sent a message to the Lion King, telling him to circle outside the city.

While Gu Fei and Xiao Yi Xian were dining in a restaurant, an old man with white hair walked out of an ancient shop in another part of the city.

He had also seen the sixth-tier flying Demonic Beast, and a deep thought flashed in his eyes.

“Could it be that someone has discovered me?”
