The sky turned dark rather late at Xijing market. It was summer and the sun would only gradually set beyond the horizon at approximately 9 pm.
It wasn't to say that the altitude here was extremely high, but the difference in longitude between this place and the capital was extremely great. The land of China covered a really vast area, an area so great that citizens have trouble visualizing it in its entirety.
Lu Shu gazed at the speck of red light behind some infrastructure far away. The darkness of the night was impending.
He brought Lu Xiaoyu to hide behind a group of people as they waited for the appearance of those four daoyuan students. It would be alright if he didn't know about the existence of the black market. But since he knew of it, he should naturally pay it a visit.
Wouldn't it be great if he could sell his magical stones off secretly?
