“Hello big sister, could you tell me where this is?” Right now, Ye Lang was very confused of his current location. Where was he? Why wasn’t it on the map?

“Little brother, this is Miweila city, are you lost?” The big sister kindly replied.

“This isn’t Chelsea city? Isn’t Miweila city supposed to be in the northwest? I wanted to go southeast…” Ye Lang looked at the map and found Miweila city. Compared to his objective, it could be said to be in the opposite direction.

“It looks like you’re really lost, there’s a distance of 200 li between here and there. How did you not notice when they’re so far apart?” It looked like the big sister was a nice person and was worried about Ye Lang.

“I didn’t know, I’m trying to avoid some people, I was afraid I would be discovered!” Ye Lang shook his head and obediently revealed some details of his situation.

“Avoiding people? Who are you avoiding?” The big sister asked full of confusion.

“I’m avoiding… I can’t tell you, that would reveal my identity!” Ye Lang shook his head and spoke: “I had better turn around first, from here which way is the fastest route to Vermillion Bird Empire?”

Ye Lang’s self-preservation instinct was still present although it was a bit weak!

Looking at Ye Lang looking around on the map, the big sister continued speaking: “Little brother, tell me where in Vermillion Bird empire you want to go, big sister will help you look!”

“…” Ye Lang’s movements suddenly stopped because he discovered a very serious problem. That was… He didn’t know where in the Vermillion Bird Empire he was supposed to go! He didn’t know where to go to regroup.

Everybody talked about going to the Vermillion Bird Empire, but they had never discussed where!

It seemed that his cousin hadn’t said anything either, just to go to the Vermillion Bird Empire. What to do? Should he just randomly pick a place and go there?

Ye Lang was in a daze. He was trying to decide where to go and his final decision... Was to randomly pick a place and worry about the rest later!

In reality, if it was in the past, as long as Ye Lang entered the Vermillion Bird Empire and then showed the jade his cousin had given him, people would have immediately shown up to receive him. But now it was even more simple, as long as he showed himself, immediately, there would be people to protect him and escort him to regroup with the others.

“Anywhere is fine, what’s closest?” Ye Lang asked.

“From here, the closest is Red Dusk city. It’s the closest city of the Vermillion Bird Empire. I’ll draw the path for you, don’t get lost again.” The kindhearted older sister took out a pen and drew a line on Ye Lang’s map.

This pen was used in this world to make temporary notes. After a while, the ink would automatically vanish!

“Oh, got it, thank you sister!” Ye Lang thanked her and started following the line drawn on the map.

“Wait!” the big sister shouted.

“What, is there something else?” Ye Lang turned around and vigilantly asked.

The big sister looked at Ye Lang and with a weird expression and asked: “What are you doing right now, are you going somewhere nearby to clean yourself up or are you rushing out immediately on your journey!”

“I don’t have time, I have to hurry to the Vermillion Bird Empire” Ye Lang said with an attitude like he didn’t have the time.

“If that’s the case, then you should be going this way. How are you reading the map?”The big sister pointed out that Ye Lang was taking the exact opposite route. She was amazed by Ye Lang’s map reading ability.

“Just like this!” Ye Lang grabbed the map and told the big sister.
