Guozhao Zhiqiang spent three weeks alone in Waterfall City, waiting for Lim Peizhi and the Red Moon Hunters. Guozhao Zhiqiang watched after Lim Peizhi's generals, but none of Lim Peizhi's generals did anything to show that they would betray Waterfall City and its citizen. In the third weeks, Lim Peizhi, the Red Moon Hunters, and their friend returned to Waterfall City. That night after the welcome celebration dinner party, Guozhao Zhiqiang left a letter for Lim Peizhi with the Tiger soapstone seal and he left Waterfall City.
Guozhao Zhiqiang walked the entire night and half a day, and finally arrived in a small village. He found an outdoor roadside tavern and ordered a bowl of noodles and two steamed buns. A little girl about ten years old brought him his ordered food. The little girl reminded him of himself when he was severing food in the brothel. He noticed that the little girl was afraid of him, because she put the food on the table quickly, and she left without talking to him. Guozhao Zhiqiang never took these small actions to heart, because he was so used to the kind of stared from people that it no longer bothered him.
Guozhao Zhiqiang sat quietly eating noodles. Immediately afterwards, a group of four men and six women dressed in purple and black stopped and tied their horses. They sit on the left of Guozhao Zhiqiang. When this group of people ordered theirs food, another group of ten people dressed in green and white clothes stopped dismounted from theirs horse and tied their horses. They sit on the right side of Guozhao Zhiqiang. The two group looked at each other.
The child's mother must be sorry for what her little daughter did. She took a small pot of wine and walked to the table of Guozhao Zhiqiang.
Woman said, "I'm here to apologize for my daughter. I hope this customer doesn't mind." She poured the wine on the cup and put the wine jar on the table. "Please enjoyed the wine."
Guozhao Zhiqiang, "I don't mind, do you know how far Capital City is from here?"
The woman chuckled, "Young man, the closest way to Capital City is by boat. You have to start from Waterfall City."
Guozhao Zhiqiang asked, "What if I don't want to take that route."
The woman then said, "The other way is longer. You go this way. "She pointed to the road on the left. "From here to the Mountain village, it three days walked, and then another two days walking from there will take you to Stone Village." She paused. "From Stone Village, if go west for two days, you will arrived at Sunshine Town. If you go South, you will reach Border Towns in four days. If you go east, you will reach Capital City in two days."
Guozhao Zhiqiang, "Thank you Madam."
The woman smiled and said, "Enjoy, my old man is calling." She turned around and yelled to her husband. "I'm coming. I'm coming." She rushed toward the open kitchen.
Three horses stopped and six people got off their horses. There are two men and four women all dressed in white. When the group looked around, all the tables were full, except for the table of the man in black. The group of people in white walked up to the table.
A soft voice said, "I'm sorry this hunter."
Guozhao Zhiqiang looked up. The handsome tall man in pearl skin is dressed in white, his hair is neatly tied with a white ribbon, and he smiles and looks down at him. The most memorable thing about this young man is his red hair.
The man said, "I'm Hu Dingxiang of Snow Sector, may we sit with you."
Guozhao Zhiqiang stared at the man without saying a word. He put two coins on the table and grabbed the two buns with his left hand. He stood up and walked in the direction the woman pointed.
Xiao Yan looked at Guozhao Zhiqiang and said, What weird person?"
Xi Yue warned the younger junior, "Pay attention to your mouth."
Hu Dingxiang, "Senior brother, let's eat and go quickly."
One of the men in purple and black, "What exactly does Snow Sector plan to do at the foot of this mountain?"
Hu Dingxiang said, "We are just running errands. May I ask, why is Golden Gate Sector is far away from Capital City?"
Yi Guozhi smiled, "Sightseeing."
Hu Jiangou said madly, "Yi Guozhi."
Yi Gouzhi, "Hu Jianguo."
Hu Dingxiang, "Big brother."He shook his head. "You guys, please calm down. Everyone here is from the Six Sectors. We are all brothers. We need to work together. We are here because people are calling us."
Fu Pengfei, "Brother Hu is absolutely correct."
Yi Guozhi pointed his finger at Fu Pengfei, "The Lotus Sector is just a small Sector. If I were you, I wouldn't speak at all."
Fu Pengfei, "Yi Guozhi!" He rushed towards Yi Gouzhi, but was stopped by Hu Dingxiang.
Hu Dingxiang softly whispered, "Brother Fu, it's not that you don't know him. Don't turn a small dispute into a major event. We are here to catch the fire demon, not to exchange swords. If you really want to fight him, wait until the Sectors annual competition. You can fight him at that time."
Fu Pengfei breathed heavily through both nostrils.
Hu Dingxiang turned to Yi Guozhi, "Brother Yi, please calm down, I apologize to you."
Hu Jiangou said angrily, "Dingxiang. You are such loser. Why are you afraid of him?"
Hu Dingxiang, "Big Brother, forget it, we have more important things to do. Please..."
The three hunters calmed down and began to eat.
The four female disciples of the Snow Sector began to gossip.
Wang Ying said, "Do any of you recognize that black loner hunter?"
Su Yun replied, "No, I have never seen him."
Xiao Yuan said, "He may be a southerner." She giggled.
Xi Yue, "How do you know he is from the south?"
Xiao Yuan said, "Because his skin is darker than ours, and our northerners have whiter skin."
Wan Ying, "Think about it, I think he is indeed a southerner, because once I went to the South to visit my sister and brother-in-law, the southerner's skin was indeed darker."
Hu Dingxiang looked at the four juniors and said, "You four know that the Snow Sector prohibits gossip?"
The four ladies looked at each other and said, "Yes, da shixiong."
