Chapter 3565
Natalia said, "Wasteland is a city located near the Great Hsia Domain. It has a low population and the city isn't famous for anything. That's probably why you haven't heard of it before."
"Madam Tu, have you been there before?" asked Fade.
Natalia shook her head and said, "No, I haven't!"
"Ah, this..." Fade looked surprised.
Natalia continued to explain, "I know of the place because of my husband. That year when he left, he told me that if we were ever in trouble and if we didn't have anywhere else to go in Great Hsia Domain, we could go to Wasteland and seek help." "All these years we've been fine, that's why I've never visited Wasteland. It's only now that I remember..."
Natalia was also a little hesitant. "Therefore, I don't know much about the Wasteland. As Mr. Danyaal said, it's probably safer for us to go to a small city...like Wasteland."
After that, Natalia and Danyaal both looked at Fade.
Obviously, Fade was the ultimate decision maker.
Fade was silent as he thought for a while. He raised his head and said, "Let's go to the Wasteland!"
"Ah, Wasteland..."Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Both of them were somewhat surprised.
Fade explained, "That's what I think!"
"Wasteland was the place that Madam Tu's husband said we should go in case of any danger. So, I believe that Wasteland is safe."
Danyaal, who sat beside Fade, also clapped his hands and said, "That makes sense. Since it's Nile's arrangement, then I also believe it is safe."
After all, Natalia's husband, Nile Hsia, was the young master of Great Hsia Domain. He was a top figure in terms of both status and cultivation power. His arrangements should be very reliable.
It was precisely because of this that Fade chose Wasteland as their next destination.
However, Natalia was still a little worried. "But he had arranged that many years ago. Who know what will happen when we get there? Moreover, 1 don't even know whether he is dead or alive now." Natalia sounded gloomy all of a sudden.
Fade noticed the sadness in Natalia's voice and said, "Madam Tu, I have faith that Nile is still alive!"
"Furthermore, on our way to the Wasteland, we might be able to find some clues about him."
Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope appeared in Natalia's eyes. In the end, she nodded and said, "Then, let's go to Wasteland!"
After confirming their next destination, they rested in the cave for the night. The next morning, everyone quickly packed up and left. Wasteland was located at the southwest border of Great Hsia Domain, which was not far from where they were. Thus, Fade and the others activated their positive energies to speed up their journey.
Fortunately, the group of people were all martial arts practitioners and their strength was not bad. Majority were in Stage 3 and 4 of the Soul Refine Realm. Therefore, although they had to use a huge amount of positive energy, they could still hold on.
They traveled half of Great Hsia Domain and after one week, they finally arrived at the entrance of Wasteland.
Before entering the city, Fade couldn't help sighing with emotion when he saw the scene around him.
Compared to the previous cities that Fade had seen along the way, Wasteland was much more shabby. They had a population of 2 million and there were not many pedestrians and businessmen coming and going. Moreover, the surrounding was very bare.
There were not many plants growing. As the strong wind blew, yellow sand instantly filled the sky. The whole city was covered in dust. One could feel that the atmosphere in the air was somber.
"No wonder this place is called Wasteland!"
When the group saw the scene in front of them, they could not help but sigh with emotion.
"Let's enter the city first. I want to see if I can get in touch with anyone," said Natalia. Then, they entered the city.
When they arrived in the city, Fade realized that there were not many shops along the streets. Moreover, the prices of the basic necessities were higher than that of other cities, especially herbs that could not be grown locally here. It was much more expensive here.
"How can people live in this place?" Fade could not help but sigh again.
Then, they had to pay three times the normal price for a room in the hotel.
After settling down in the hotel and resting for a while, Natalia decided to go out and have a look around.
In the evening, Natalia returned to the hotel with a middle-aged couple.
"I've found some people that might help us. I've already explained our situation to them."
The two of them cupped their hands and bowed respectfully to Fade and the others.
Especially Evelyne. They wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but Natalia quickly stopped them.
"We've already informed Mr. Zhu about your situation. He will send someone to take you to Sun-Moon City tomorrow." "Sun-Moon City!"
Fade couldn't help but be curious when he heard the new location.
Natalia explained, "It's a satellite city under Wasteland. The people here are mainly from there, not Wasteland."
Later, Fade and the others learned the basic information of this place through the two of them.
Mr. Zhu of Sun Moon City was Nile's good friend. He was also the mayor of Sun Moon City, which was managed by the mayor of Wasteland.
However, there was a rumor that
Master Zhu and the mayor of
Wasteland had a grudge against each other. As such, the two sides did not have a good relationship and did not have much interaction with each other.
Because of this, the residents of Wasteland were a little hostile towards the citizens of Sun Moon City.
Even though many people did not know the whole story.
But this situation had lasted for at least hundreds and perhaps thousands of years. The truth was, no one actually knew what happened.
The next day, after breakfast, they packed up and left the hotel. Under the guidance of the two people yesterday, they arrived at the west gate of Wasteland.
On the other side of the gate, a middle-aged man with a long-bearded, who was driving a horse carriage, came up to the group.
The man cupped his hands and bowed to Natalia and Evelyne. "I'm Perro. Nice to meet you, Madam Tu, Miss Evelyne, and all the distinguished guests!" "This is Grandmaster Liu, Mr. Zhu's right-hand man!" The two introduced.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Liu!"
Then, after greeting, the group boarded the carriage driven by Mr. Liu and staggered toward the west.
Half a day later, an earthen yellow city appeared in the distance.
The city was built at the foot of a
stone. The area was not big, and the city wall was only seven or eight meters high. There were only a few people coming in and out of the city gate.
To the west of Sun Moon City, there was a barren desert called "Wasteland Desert".
Wasteland Desert had a radius of several thousand kilometers. It seemed endless.
There were people who had once thought that there might be some treasure buried underneath those sand, waiting for it to be found.
But in the end, no one found anything. They were sure that Wasteland Desert was a barren land with almost no usable resources.
In addition to the harsh climate in the desert, they would encounter all kinds of vicious beasts from time to time.
Thus, the entire Great Hsia Domain had given up on exploring the desert. This desert had become the west-west border of the Great Hsia Domain. Sun-Moon City was located in a small town on the edge of the desert.
