Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Human Forbidden Zone Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Human Forbidden Zone After a moment of deep thought, Jiang Fan finally said, âMiss Yue, have you not been at the sect recently?â
âDo you not know that your sect master has issued a warrant for my arrest?â
Yue Mingzhuâs heart skipped a beat.
She had just remembered this detail.
Her face turned red involuntarily; she had been impulsive at the time, trying to keep Jiang Fan and also a bit angry.
âWell⊠could it be that you misunderstood our sect master?â
Yue Mingzhu stammered, âShe may not be as bad as you think.â
Not bad?
To deal with him, she even used Heavenly Mountain Silk!
Jiang Fan muttered inwardly.
But since Yue Mingzhu was from the Desires Sect, it wasnât appropriate to criticize the Desires Sect Master in front of her.
He could only respond perfunctorily, âMaybe.â
âBut in any case, I wonât be able to go to the Desires Sect.â
âIt wonât be easy for us to meet in the future.â
âFarewell!â
Watching Jiang Fanâs gradually receding back.
Yue Mingzhu had a complex expression in her eyes.
Jiang Fan wouldnât go to Desires City.
And she couldnât go to the Green Cloud Sect to find Jiang Fan either.
Because the Sect Leader and the elders of the Green Cloud Sect were definitely familiar with her true appearance.
How could a sect master travel a thousand miles to find a mere disciple?
That wouldnât be good for Jiang Fan.
Understanding this.
She realized.
As Jiang Fan had said, their meetings could only rely on fate.
If theyâre unlucky, they might never meet again in this lifetime.
A sense of loss of someone important welled up in her heart.
As she watched Jiang Fanâs figure about to disappear into the crowd.
She bit her lip lightly.
She took a step forward and chased after him, âWait!â
The Desires Sect was a place to cultivate the heart.
Their highest pursuit was to fulfill their desires.
As the sect master, Yue Mingzhu was no exception.
âDoes Miss Yue have anything else?â Jiang Fan asked with a smile.
He was used to this girlâs unpredictable style.
Yue Mingzhu snorted delicately:
âYouâre going to rescue some senior sister, right?â
âDo you need help, the capable kind?â
Jiang Fan laughed out loud.
But he refused resolutely, âMy senior sister and several powerful disciples went missing together, which shows the danger they encountered is not small.â
âI might not even be able to protect myself.â
âIf we encounter danger, I might not be able to protect you.â
Yue Mingzhu covered her mouth and almost burst out laughing.
As a sect master, does she need his protection?
âRest assured, if we encounter danger, itâs not certain whoâs rescuing whom!â
She suppressed her realm, revealing the aura of the Second Level of Core Formation.
Jiang Fan sensed her aura and was shocked, âYouâre at the Second Level of Core Formation?â
He had never expected Yue Mingzhu to possess such power.
âThatâs strange, why have I never heard of your name?â
But he quickly became puzzled again.
Having traveled through many sects, he had a rough understanding of the top prodigies in the Nine-Sect Land.
Anyone at the Second Level of Core Formation should be a chief of some sect, or at least at the second or third tier.
Such a person should be quite renowned in the Nine-Sect Land.
It didnât make sense not to have heard of her.
Yue Mingzhu secretly stuck out her tongue, âIdiot, of course you havenât heard of it.â
âBecause this name is fake.â
She said casually, âIâve always been in seclusion, rarely going out.â
âItâs no wonder the outside world doesnât know about me.â
Jiang Fan pondered for a moment.
Although it seemed a bit far-fetched, it wasnât impossible.
The Nine-Sect Land was so vast; it wasnât impossible that a sect might hide one or two exceptionally talented disciples and train them in secret.
âAlright, if you insist on going, then be extra careful.â
âThe Second Level of Core Formation should be barely enough for self-preservation.â
Jiang Fan still looked a bit worried.
Yue Mingzhu gave him a reproachful look, barely enough at the Second Level of Core Formation?
On that day in the Desires Sect Master Hall, Jiang Fanâs full-force strike was only around the Second Level of Core Formation, wasnât it?
âHumph! Just wait and see how I tame your arrogance on the way!â
She felt it necessary to show off a bit so that Jiang Fan wouldnât underestimate her.
They rented a carriage and quickly left Giant City.
Chatting as they went, they sped towards the northern border of the Giant Sect.
âHey, Jiang Fan, have you really not considered joining my Desires Sect?â
âNo consideration.â
âThe Desires Sect Master actually has no ill intentions toward you, sheâs just fond of talent. Iâll suggest she cancel the warrant when I get back. Donât be mad at her, alright?â
âYou speak highly of your sect master, always defending her. Whatâs so good about her?â
âShe⊠sheâs good-looking, powerful, lively, and adorable, kind to others, loyal and righteous, passionate and resolute⊠why are you looking at me like that?â
âItâs the first time Iâve seen someone work so hard to praise someone else; normally itâs the narcissistic type that praises themselves like that.â
âYou!â
âBut actually, these words are more fitting to describe you.â
âOh⊠Iâm not that good eitherâŠâ
The wheels of the carriage rolled on, making creaking sounds on the cobblestone road.
The wind blew the curtain.
Through the fluttering curtain, a charming face tinged with sweetness appeared intermittentlyâŠ
A few days later.
They arrived at the Northern Territory.
This was the northernmost region of the Giant Sect.
Snow covered everything.
The towering mountains, dressed in white, blended with the earth.
Only the undulating lines that reached the sky, set against the washed-blue sky, distinguished it as a vast expanse of rolling mountains.
âThousand miles of snow, ten thousand paths without a soul.â
Standing on the horseâs back, Yue Mingzhu looked ahead and said, âNo wonder they call this the human forbidden zone of the Northern Territory.â
âExcept for the resilient Demon Beasts, other creatures find it hard to survive here.â
Jiang Fan also emerged from the carriage.
Looking at the desolate, snow-covered Northern Territory, he couldnât help but feel a bit awed.
People always said the Northern Territory was a human forbidden zone.
He always thought it was an exaggeration.
But now, just a glance made him feel an overwhelming sense of oppression.
It was hard to imagine how humans could survive on a land covered only in snow.
In contrast to the boundless white snow,
a small bustling town with smoke curling and people chatting, like a sesame seed embedded in the vast snowfield.
Yue Mingzhu pointed ahead and said, âThat is our last human outpost.â
âSunset City.â
âIt was established by the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion as a garrison against the Demon Race.â
âNow, it has become a temporary war command city.â
âA vice pavilion master is stationed there personally.â
Jiang Fan could feel the immense pressure that the city was bearing.
In front of them was the endless beast tide, and behind them was the Nine-Sect Land.
If Sunset City fell, the Nine-Sect Land would be in peril!
He nodded and said, âLetâs enter the city to prepare some supplies and then switch to riding horses.â
The icy snowfield ahead was no longer suitable for carriages.
Even riding horses might not be very convenient.
As soon as they entered Sunset City,
Jiang Fan felt a strong sense of impending doom.
You could see martial artists with somber faces everywhere, and many were injured.
They spoke little, moving hurriedly.
There was a trace of killing intent in their eyes.
An invisible pressure surged forth.
Jiang Fanâs tone turned grave, âThe frontline seems to be in fierce combat.â
Yue Mingzhu nodded, âNaturally, the elders of each sect have been called upon and are on their way here.â
âEven some sect masters have long been requisitioned over.â
Suddenly.
She caught a glimpse of a figure.
Immediately, she ducked back into the carriage.
Jiang Fan was stunned.
Who did she see?
Why so flustered?
