Chapter 532: 532

“Beneath that mountain lies a gold-dissipating den of the Divine Eagle Sect. More than eighty percent of the Divine Eagle Sect disciples, as well as visitors, indulge themselves there. If you can leave there safely, perhaps you can directly reach the Divine Eagle Sect’s main altar.”

After uttering these words, Hu Sanlang suddenly regretted it.

After all, he was a disciple of the Divine Eagle Sect; although he had not led Chen Yu up the mountain himself, pointing out the way was, to some extent, an act of betrayal.

With a helpless sigh, he tossed a jade token to Chen Yu, then picked up his Wolf Fang Club and sat back down in his original spot.

“Today I’ll pretend you’ve never been here. Hurry up and leave. In ten minutes, I might end up regretting this.”

Chen Yu did not say anything more and, along with Xiao Chun, directly crossed through the town.

The hill was not actually far, but the path up the mountain was too steep. Chen Yu and Xiao Chun walked for nearly two hours before they found a narrow entrance.

It was completely dark by now, and the light filtering out from the entrance could be clearly seen.

Chen Yu stepped forward and gave the stone door several firm knocks.

The door opened in response, and a middle-aged man came out looking quite indolent.

“Where are you from? Do you have a token?”

Chen Yu promptly handed over the jade token given by Hu Sanlang.

The man checked it and then opened both gates.

“Why did you bring a little girl with you? Are you planning to lose everything and then trade this girl for money?”

Chen Yu didn’t say much, pulling Xiao Chun along and following the passage straight ahead.

At this moment, the system had already enveloped the entire hill, and the interior conditions were imprinted in Chen Yu’s mind.

The entire hill had been hollowed out, including some underground facilities, turning this place into an underground fortress.

“Big brother, we escaped from here originally!”

Xiao Chun’s face showed some fear. It looked like she must have suffered some inhuman torment here; otherwise, she wouldn’t have run away.

Chen Yu surveyed his surroundings and quickly found an inn.

He was already exhausted from all the trouble he had experienced throughout the day.

Besides, overthrowing the Divine Eagle Sect was not something that could be achieved overnight; it wouldn’t delay his sleep.

“Come on, let’s rest a bit first, and have something to eat while we’re at it.”

Xiao Chun couldn’t help but touch her little stomach—she realized she hadn’t had a proper meal in a long time.

The two of them passed through the bustling street and arrived at an inn, which seemed quite decent.

The structure of the small establishment was simple: a dining hall on the first floor, with lodgings on the second and third.

Chen Yu found an empty table and sat down, casually picking up a menu.

Perhaps because it was in the southern borderlands, the ingredients here were somewhat peculiar, presenting a bizarre array of food from various creatures.

More than half of the items on the menu were made from insects.

Chen Yu handed the menu to Xiao Chun.

“Take a look, is there anything you like to eat?”

Xiao Chun took the menu and immediately became excited.

“Big brother, can I order anything I want?”

Chen Yu nodded, “Of course, you can. I’ll cover all the expenses here.”

Without any hesitation, Xiao Chun called the waiter and asked him to serve one of each dish on the menu.
