"Whoa! Master, Third Brother, we're almost there."
Qin Xiaolou's voice carried from afar.
The three galloping steeds slowed, walking along the official road.
Xie Daoling, Qin Xiaolou, and Gu Qingshan each rode a horse, gazing at the city at the end of the road.
"Ah, I can see it now," Gu Qingshan said.
The city was called Luo River City.
It was one of the largest cities in the Human Realm.
Ever since the Six Paths had restarted, Qin Xiaolou had been hiding in this city.
He wasn't very strong and didn't like fighting, so he'd never been able to leave the city, afraid he might run into those Five Elements Monsters.
But he was also anxious to find Xie Daoling and his other junior brothers and sisters. He had no choice but to settle in the city and search for the Hundred Flowers Sect members every day by telling fortunes.
—After Gu Qingshan and Xie Daoling escaped the Five Elements War Zone, the Wind Key sent them to a barren mountain outside Luo River City.
Then Xiaolou found them.
Qin Xiaolou led the way, looking rather pleased with himself.
"Today, I suddenly felt inspired and casually cast a divination. I hadn't expected much, but I got an extremely auspicious result."
"I hadn't gotten a reading like that in a long time, so I immediately cast one for you, Qingshan, as well as Xiu Xiu, Wan Er, and Qing Rou. I found that your reading matched the auspicious one."
"Then I checked the direction—and discovered you were just a short distance to my north!"
"So I hurried over."
"And sure enough, I found you, and... Master from a previous life. I'm so lucky!"
He glanced cautiously at Xie Daoling.
"Yeah, we've had pretty good luck today," Gu Qingshan chimed in.
