395: Purple Light Town, Your Royal Highness

Half an incense stick later.

Shen Tu returned, handing a storage ring to Xie Weilou: “Fan Shidi, these are some resources I obtained from the Yin Corpse Sect’s treasury.”

“......”

Xie Weilou took the storage ring and distributed some of its contents to Shen Tu, while Lu Jin and Jing Qiu received nothing.

“Thank you, Fan Shidi.”

Shen Tu smiled as he put away the resources. This time, Xie Weilou had been the main force, so even if he took all the resources, Shen Tu wouldn't say anything.

Xuan Bei looked at Xie Weilou: “Fellow Daoist Fan, to reach Evil God Lake, we need to enter Mist Forest. Tonight, we will stay in a small town near Mist Forest.”

“Alright!”

Xie Weilou nodded slightly.

Xuan Bei conjured a flying boat, and everyone boarded it, quickly departing from the Yin Corpse Sect...

——

An hour later.

They arrived at a small town—Purple Light Town!

Purple Light Town was different from ordinary small towns; it appeared more prosperous, brightly lit, and quite bustling.

The town had many taverns and pavilions, as well as some pill and treasure shops and weapon stores.

There were many people coming and going, and at a glance, most of them were cultivators.

Xuan Bei led Xie Weilou and the others through the town, murmuring: “Mist Forest is fifty li from here. It has many demonic beasts and also hides some opportunities, so cultivators often come here for training. Purple Light Town has therefore become a temporary resting place for many cultivators.”

Not long after.

Xuan Bei led everyone into an imposing inn. It had seven floors, bright lights, and many guests coming and going.

This inn was called Purple Light Inn, the largest inn in Purple Light Town.

“Honored guests, it’s getting late. Are you planning to check in?”

A respectful inn attendant came forward to greet them.

Xuan Bei said: “Prepare ten superior rooms for us, and also get some food.”

“Alright! Honored guests, please find a seat first. I’ll go prepare the food right away, and the rooms will be ready.”

The attendant nodded hastily.

Xie Weilou and the others sat down, looking around. There were many cultivators in the inn. Overall, their cultivation levels seemed low, but there were also some unfathomable individuals.

Xie Weilou looked at one of the tables, where a man in purple robes, with silver hair and a mask, was seated.

Beside him were three elders, all early Dragon Transformation Realm demonic beasts. The three of them concealed themselves well, not revealing any demonic aura.

“It’s him...”

Xie Weilou recognized the man in purple robes; he was Dao Kong, who had appeared earlier in Void Heaven Sword Arena.

He claimed to be a disciple of Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, but in reality, he was a demonic beast with decent strength.

Just then, a burly middle-aged man with a full beard entered the inn. He carried a massive sword on his back, his steps heavy, and a terrifying pressure emanated from him. He was also an early Dragon Transformation Realm cultivator.

For a small town to have four Dragon Transformation Realm cultivators was indeed extraordinary.

“......”

The appearance of this middle-aged man immediately attracted the attention of Dao Kong and the other demonic beasts. They stared at him, a strange look in their eyes.

“Yan Mo, can’t you walk faster? I’m starving.”

Outside the inn, a displeased voice sounded. A woman in a goose-yellow long dress walked in with her chin held high, holding a bag of nuts.

Behind her was a man in black robes, his face full of helplessness. How much had his cousin eaten on this journey? And she was still hungry?

“Third Princess...”

When Jing Qiu and the others saw the woman, their eyes showed surprise. This was indeed the Third Princess, Yan Ruyi.

They hadn't expected her to appear here.

“Young Master!”

The inn’s proprietress, a middle-aged beauty, immediately stepped forward to salute when she saw the man behind Yan Ruyi.

Great Xia had three titled kings, and the man before them was Yan Mo, the son of the Xuan King, who guarded the Southwest Province.

Purple Light Inn’s true owner was Yan Mo.

Yan Mo nodded slightly to the middle-aged beauty, chuckling: “Bring up a portion of all your best food. I have a little glutton here.”

“Alright.”

The middle-aged beauty quickly went to prepare.

Yan Ruyi glanced around, her gaze falling on Chu Yicai and Jing Qiu. She said in surprise: “Oh! Isn’t this Chu Yicai and little beauty Jing Qiu?”

Chu Yicai and Jing Qiu looked helpless. They stood up and saluted: “Greetings, Princess!”

“Greetings, Princess.”

The people from the Three Sects also saluted.

The surrounding people immediately stared at Yan Ruyi, their eyes filled with curiosity. Princess? Was this Great Xia’s Princess?

Seeing everyone saluting while Xie Weilou remained seated, Yan Ruyi put her hands on her hips: “Who are you? You dare not salute Princess?”

Xie Weilou smiled and said: “I am Fan Wei of Thunder Peak!”

“Fan... Wei? Hehe, so it’s you!”

Yan Ruyi scrutinized Xie Weilou, a strange smile appearing on her face.

She didn't stand on ceremony and directly sat down next to Xie Weilou: “Princess is sitting here, you won’t be angry, will you?”

“As long as Princess is pleased.”

Xie Weilou smiled wryly; he knew this woman had recognized him.

“Everyone, no need to be formal! Please sit down.”

Yan Ruyi waved to Chu Yicai and the others. She then looked at Yan Mo: “Yan Mo, come sit with us.”

Yan Mo walked over with a smile, looking at Xie Weilou and the others: “Is this appropriate?”

Xie Weilou smiled faintly: “Of course!”

“Thank you.”

Yan Mo then sat down.

Yan Ruyi looked at Xie Weilou: “Fan Wei, are you here for Evil God Lake?”

Xie Weilou asked with a smile: “Is Princess also here for Evil God Lake?”

Everyone nearby immediately perked up their ears. Some came here to train in Mist Forest, others for Evil God Lake.

Yan Ruyi said directly: “Yes! Many people here are for Evil God Lake. Rumor has it that there are treasures hidden there, so I specifically came to see.”

“That’s quite a coincidence; we also plan to visit Evil God Lake.”

Xie Weilou wasn't afraid of outsiders hearing anything; it wasn't a big deal.

“Hehe! Then let’s go together! It’s sure to be very lively.”

A smile appeared on Yan Ruyi’s face.

Shen Tu and the others stared at Yan Ruyi and Xie Weilou with surprise, noting that Yan Ruyi’s attitude towards Xie Weilou was quite different.

Not long after.

Various delicacies and fine wines were brought out.

Yan Ruyi picked up her chopsticks and started eating immediately, a look of satisfaction on her face: “Mmm! So delicious. I’ve been starving these past few days.”

“......”

Xie Weilou poured a cup of wine and slowly savored it.

Yan Mo looked at Xie Weilou and the others: “Recently, some strange things have been happening in Mist Forest. Many demonic beasts are more irritable. If you plan to go to Evil God Lake, you might encounter many troubles.”

Yan Ruyi quickly swallowed her food and said carelessly: “Don’t worry! I’m very strong, I can beat ten thousand! This Fan Wei guy is also very powerful. Although not as good as me, he can beat ten.”

“......”

Yan Mo looked a bit exasperated.
