"Sect Master! We found Maple City!"
When Sun Buxiao returned to Earthnight City, one of the underlings he had taken in earlier excitedly reported to him.
"Well done! Now, let's take a look at the map of the entire Black-Corner Region."
Sun Buxiao clapped first, then spread a map across the table.
It was a complete map of the Black-Corner Region, which he had swiped from Yuan Yi.
All he could say was that his sticky fingers weren't particularly clean.
The underling: ???
"The Black-Corner Region is roughly triangular, with Jia Nan City in the middle. Earthnight City is here, at its eastern corner. Head farther in, and you'll reach Black Seal City and several other major cities."
"And Maple City... is here."
His finger moved away from Black Seal City, traveling upward toward the north.
"That's so far. It's about as far as we traveled from Ghost-Suppressing Pass to here. At least two months on foot."
"...Wait, you weren't thinking of going straight to Maple City and throwing down with Han Feng, were you?"
Xiao Yi Xian was genuinely a little worried that this lunatic would charge over there in a fit of hotheadedness.
No matter how much of an idiot Han Feng was, he was still the third-ranked expert on the Black List, an alchemist at the Peak Dou Emperor level. Whether in strength or connections, he could crush Sun Buxiao as he was now.
"Relax, your boy isn't brain-dead enough to fight him head-on yet. But I believe he's probably already taken notice of me to some extent."
"I'd say Han Feng and Mu Gu are another pair of star-crossed lovers..."
He was saying things Xiao Yi Xian couldn't understand again.
The information from Black Seal City had definitely begun circulating beyond its walls by now.
