Bai Lihong and his companions, a group of eight people, rushed towards Qingxiao Nation without stopping. As cultivators, they possessed much more energy and endurance than ordinary people, which allowed them to travel faster than others.
Finally, after half a month of continuous travel, they arrived at the border city of Qingxiao Nation.
Blue Light City.
They walked on the streets of Blue Light City. As a border city, it didn't feel desolate at all. On the contrary, it was bustling with people coming and going, and trade was flourishing.
As they entered the city, smiles appeared on their faces, and the fatigue on their bodies seemed to diminish.
"We've been resting in the woods for the past two days, covered in dust. Now that we've finally arrived in the city, let's have a meal first and then find an inn to rest. What do you think?" Cui Haoyan suggested.
They had been eating dry rations these past few days, and they longed for a hot and delicious meal.
"Agreed!"
Everyone agreed one after another. After traveling for so long, they were all feeling tired.
Moreover, when resting in the wilderness, they couldn't fully relax their mental energy, and they couldn't sleep too deeply. How could it be as comfortable as resting in an inn?
With growling stomachs, they just wanted to find a restaurant with good food. Finally, they stopped in front of one particular restaurant.
They had noticed that this restaurant was bustling with people, making it the liveliest one around.
"Let's go to this one, shall we?" Cui Haoyan smiled.
"Sounds good!"
Everyone's faces were filled with relaxed smiles. As soon as they entered the restaurant, the aroma of food greeted their nostrils.
A waiter hurriedly approached them as soon as he saw customers entering. "Excuse me, but all the private rooms on the second floor are occupied. We only have two tables available in the main hall. Would that be alright for you?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Lihong and the others didn't mind. It was just a meal, and having a private room didn't affect them.
With a group of eight people, four men and four women, Bai Lihong and the other women sat at one table, while Gong Shaoqing and the three other men sat at the adjacent table.
Soon, the dishes they ordered were brought to them. Seeing the appetizing and delicious dishes, their appetites were aroused, and they immediately started using their chopsticks.
As the fish entered her mouth, Xia Zhiqing blissfully narrowed her eyes. "After eating dry rations for so many days, it feels so good to finally have a hot meal. I feel so happy."
Seeing Xia Zhiqing's exaggerated expression, Bai Lihong and the others couldn't help but smile.
"Don't worry, now that we've arrived in Qingxiao Nation, you shouldn't go hungry anymore," Bai Lihong lightly chuckled.
In the borderlands between the two nations, there were usually vast deserts without cities or towns. But once they reached the kingdom, it would be different.
On their journey towards the capital of Qingxiao Nation, there should be settlements and people along the way, much better than before.
Xia Zhiqing nodded. "That's great. I haven't bathed in days, and I feel uncomfortable."
Just as they were enjoying their conversation, a few young cultivators dressed in extraordinary attire entered the restaurant, each wielding a sword. There were both males and females, and their demeanor was far from ordinary.
"Give us a private room," a young man in a yellow robe said with a hint of arrogance on his fair face.
The waiter could tell that these young people were not easy to deal with and wore a helpless expression on his face.
"I'm sorry, but all our private rooms are already occupied," the waiter replied.
