Volume One, Chapter 382
Zhao Fu arrived in the city and found that everyone there had a red sun emblem on their arms. After asking around, he learned that those of the Guardian faction all bore this mark, as proof of their loyalty to the Great Divine Maiden. The Destruction faction, meanwhile, was loyal to another Great Divine Maiden and bore a different emblem on their arms.
The young man said with a smile, "I'll head home first!"
The red-clad girl nodded gently.
The young man looked at Zhao Fu and said respectfully, "If there is ever anything you need me for, just come find me. I will certainly do everything in my power to help you."
Zhao Fu gave a soft grunt of acknowledgment.
After the young man left, Zhao Fu followed the red-clad woman into a temple. A tall woman in red smiled and asked, "Ri Yan, where did you just go?"
The red-clad girl smiled. "I went with Ri You to gather some spirit herbs."
Zhao Fu noticed that this woman was also dressed in red, with a dark-red sun emblem on her clothes. It seemed that all Divine Maidens wore such attire.
The tall woman was named Ri Liu. She smiled and reminded her, "Be more careful when you're outside. I heard that some outsiders have entered our region."
Ri Yan smiled and nodded. "Sister Ri Liu, I know!"
Ri Liu turned her gaze toward Zhao Fu and asked curiously, "And this is?"
Ri Yan's face flushed slightly as she answered, "He's a good friend of mine. He wanted to see the temple, so I brought him here."
Seeing Ri Yan's shy appearance, Ri Liu said with a smile, "Then I won't disturb you two."
After watching Ri Liu leave, Ri Yan turned to Zhao Fu.
