"Old Li! When did you pop up? Those sect disciples were biting people everywhere like mad dogs, and you actually dared to wander around outside..."
"You still don't know? The sect disciples returned to their mountain gate ages ago. They've even withdrawn from all the checkpoints..."
"Really? Could it be that the storm has truly passed?"
"Why would I lie to you? They've been making a fuss for more than a year. The culprit probably left 'Qing Huan Heaven' long ago..."
"Wonderful! I can finally leave this damned place. I've been away from home for more than a year..."
Su Fan sat on a low stool, holding an ancient book and appearing engrossed in reading. In reality, his ears had remained perked up as he listened to the Rogue Cultivators' idle chatter in the market.
The conversation between the two Rogue Cultivators had finally loosened his taut nerves by half.
The sect forces of "Qing Huan Heaven" had finally withdrawn. He at last had a chance to leave this place.
But the problem that followed was how he should get to the plane where the assassin organization was located. That was troublesome too.
In the Great World, cultivators who wanted to travel to other star domains or planes had to apply for an Identity Jade Talisman locally.
These Identity Jade Talismans were crafted with extraordinary precision. No matter what secret technique one used, there was no way to pass the inspections at the various Immortal Cities and teleportation halls.
Even cultivators who wanted to ride long-distance flying boats had to present their Identity Jade Talismans.
It was certainly impossible for him to pilot the Star Domain Flying Boat alone. The airspace between the various planes of the Great World was patrolled year-round by people from the sects' Law Enforcement Halls.
