Arriving at the closest branch of the Explorer Union to the Shattered Star Peaks that was in a relatively small town between the Flying Sword Sect and the Shattered Star Peaks, Xuan Hao was a bit surprised that the city itself had not grown any larger considering the presence of the Explorer Union branch there being by far one of the largest he had seen so far with at least three people in the Domain Lord Realm present inside the branch.
However, after careful consideration, he quickly realized why, as although the town was close to the Shattered Star Peaks and the Fallin Star City, there wasn't really much of an opportunity for explorers or wandering cultivators to find something to do in the surrounding area. Trading would be far better to do in the Falling Star City, while taking on missions or hunting for demon beast or spiritual herbs would be far better to do in one of the branches closer to the Burning Mountain Range.
