After several days of travel, Liuli's group gradually reached the outskirts of Black Emperor City.
The main road leading into the city was filled with countless passersby, most of them groups heading into the city. Clearly, they had all come for the Black Emperor City auction.
In a place like the Black Corner Region, wherever people gathered, conflict and chaos were bound to erupt. Bloody battles broke out all along the way, and quite a few people set their sights on Xiao Yan and his group.
Xiao Yan naturally showed no mercy toward these Black Corner Region bandits. The instant they attacked, he would burn them to ashes. As Xiao Yan made his moves more often, those with ill intentions began keeping their distance and stopped harassing the group of four.
Before dusk, they finally passed through the tree-shaded avenue, and the outline of a majestic city came into view.
The pitch-black city walls stretched as far as the eye could see, exuding an icy chill. As the lingering rays of sunset fell upon them, the black walls seemed like mirrors, reflecting a faint gleam. Those who knew their materials could tell that the entire surface of the walls was covered in a layer of rather rare Black Mirror Stone. Walls forged from such material were not only exceptionally sturdy, but also possessed the remarkable ability to rebound attacks. Even a full-force blow from a Dou Huang expert would find it difficult to leave much of a breach in these walls.
"Finally..." Liuli gazed at the crowded mass of people by the city gates, stretched lazily, and sighed.
The past few days of travel had been quite a challenge for someone like her, who could not use Dou Qi.
"With this many people, where are we supposed to stay tonight?"
