As the sun set, the last rays of twilight pierced through the dense forest, adorning the small town nestled within the mountains.
Outside the rustic city walls, cast from pig iron and gravel, people lined up to enter the city in groups of two or three; some rode together on the backs of giant pet beasts, while others drove large off-road vehicles.
Of course, there were also many lone adventurers accompanied only by their pet beasts.
Luo Wu Town, located in a no-man's-land, is the only supply point for all adventurers, mercenary teams, and exploration groups, and also the sole entrance and exit to Wanmo Territory.
Any Beast Tamers wishing to enter Wanmo Territory must pass identity verification here.
Luo Wu Town is a no-Flight zone; no Transcendent creature can use Flight here, so whether they are Beast Tamers who have traveled a long distance or those returning from training within the Demon King's Territory, they will voluntarily give up Flight before approaching Luo Wu Town.
“Yuan Shi.”
A flying Transcendent creature, shaped like a roc, flew smoothly downwards from a high altitude. Its perfectly natural, flowing three-colored feathers gave one the feeling of seeing a top-tier treasure.
The fading twilight, though past its prime, gained three points of charm when contrasted with it.
“Look! What kind of Transcendent creature is that?”
The Beast Tamers, bored while waiting to enter the city, noticed the oppressive feeling overhead and looked up in surprise.
Some already quickly pulled out their pet beast identifiers.
“Sorry, unable to identify.”
“This Transcendent creature is not in the database and cannot be identified at this time. If you have questions, please call xx88xx22 for consultation.”
“...”
For a moment, the sounds of various models of identifiers rose and fell.
But without exception, the results were consistent.
Unable to identify. freewebnøvel.coɱ
“How can it be unidentifiable? My pet beast identifier is a planetary super-machine.”
“Haha, a planetary super-machine is nothing. I'm using a Star Voyage T0, directly connected to the Yushou Center's database, and it updates data in real-time as long as it's online! It still can't identify it!”
“Could it be a new evolved form?”
“No way? Has new evolved forms become so common these days?”
“Let's wait and see, maybe it's because its full appearance wasn't scanned.”
“Whoosh—”
A strong wind swept by, and the Transcendent creature that had drawn everyone's attention landed on the ground. Everyone finally saw its full appearance.
And the ghost-faced girl sitting on its back.
“Hiss!”
“...Cough cough...”
Upon seeing the full appearance of the Transcendent creature and the girl, many people almost simultaneously gasped sharply, contributing another bit to global warming.
Some even coughed themselves half to death from gasping too hard.
“She wouldn’t be...”
“Mingxi!”
One person pointed at the girl who had already jumped to the ground and shouted loudly, his finger trembling as if he had Parkinson's.
Then everyone suddenly looked at the magnificent pet beast beside the girl.
“So... Ming Ye Yu Huang has evolved again? This is just an Emperor-tier, right? It is, right? I didn't see wrong, did I?”
Mingxi had anticipated that she would attract attention, and even wearing the 【Black and White Impermanence】, she would likely be recognized, as Golden Yuanbao's image was too distinctive.
Unless they used 【Genetic Simulation】, it would be impossible for them to enter Wanmo Territory unnoticed.
However, entering Wanmo Territory requires identity verification, and the person granted permission to enter Wanmo Territory was Mingxi, not some other identity.
She had tried to negotiate with Shen Najia to enter under a different identity, but he very unsentimentally refused.
“Can you guarantee that you will absolutely not expose your identity in front of others while in Wanmo Territory? If you can, then I can arrange it for you. If not, then give up on that idea.
All Beast Tamers entering and exiting Wanmo Territory must undergo strict scrutiny. If any irregular entry or exit is discovered, let alone you, even I, who granted you permission, would have to sing a 'Song of Iron Window Tears.'”
With words spoken to this extent, what else could Mingxi do?
She could only act with a singular courage, using her own identity.
So, having Yuan Qing temporarily keep the hangers-on from the underground gambling arena at bay was a bit redundant. Anyone with a functioning brain could guess her destination.
But a temporary peace was still peace.
And who knows, maybe she could gain a time advantage?
Back to the point.
Although she was aware of her celebrity status, Mingxi was still a bit caught off guard at this moment.
How did they recognize her at first glance? Because of Golden Yuanbao?
Could it be that the underground gambling arena had spread the video of Golden Yuanbao's evolution? It wasn't impossible.
“Hello, may I ask if you are Mingxi, Ming Shen?”
A woman with an heroic appearance and a °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° hearty smile walked to a short distance from Mingxi, politely maintaining a safe distance. There was curiosity and ambition in her eyes, but they were well-hidden.
“I am Mingxi.” Mingxi admitted, but she was truly curious, “Big sister, how did you determine that I am Mingxi?”
The big sister chuckled, and in a few words, Mingxi understood the reason.
Golden Yuanbao's evolution video at the underground gambling arena was only one reason; another reason came from the Yue Ling Clan.
The Yue An's, in collusion with the Descent Organization, caused trouble during the Yue Ling Clan's successor competition and almost succeeded, but their seemingly perfect conspiracy was thwarted by the unexpected intervention of a small Mingxi.
This was thoroughly exposed two days ago when the Yue Ling Clan publicly announced that they would use the full power of their clan to launch a comprehensive counterattack and eradicate the Yue An's.
“Mingxi, Ming Shen, participated in the successor competition as a support offering for Yue Ling Suiwan, the current young clan leader of the Yue Ling Clan. At that time, she was wearing a Black and White Impermanence mask.”
When the successor competition began, not only people from the Yue Ling Clan had seen Mingxi, but also support offerings from different families and forces.
Although a large number of these people perished in Yue Ling No. 3 Secret Land, because Mingxi attracted the most firepower and successively dealt with the black hands dispatched by the Descent, many still survived safely.
Now, everyone on Green Field Star who has paid attention to the changes in the Yue Ling Clan knows that Mingxi might be wearing a black and white ghost mask.
“So that’s how it is.”
Mingxi hadn't expected that the 【Black and White Impermanence】 had exposed her.
She never had the habit of surfing the internet before, and now that her life had begun its thousand-day countdown, she certainly couldn't waste such limited time.
She couldn't just let her own pet beasts work hard, could she?
Everyone working hard together is the true hard work.
Therefore, she had no idea about the Yue Ling Clan's announcement, nor that her new image had already become widely known.
“Thank you for telling me, Sister Yu.”
The woman, who introduced herself as Yu Nimo, smiled and waved her hand, “You’re welcome. You didn’t blame me for presumptuously disturbing you earlier.”
“Ming Shen, may I presumptuously ask one more question, do you know why you are in the Luo Wu Mountains at this time?”
Mingxi naturally saw Yu Nimo's intention to probe for information. She wouldn't expect a Beast Tamers who could survive and operate freely in this no-man's-land to possess a clear, innocent naiveté.
In the few minutes since she landed, she had already felt no less than five gazes with ill intent.
She chuckled softly, deliberately being vague and asking in return, “What do you think?”
Yu Nimo was slightly startled, meeting the pair of black eyes beneath the black and white ghost mask that seemed to see right through her.
She subconsciously replied, “Are you also here for Lian Yuexiang?”
