Chapter 598 The Impeccant City (2/2)
”Darren,” she began. ”My family was killed by the Divine Lunar Sect, which is a very evil faction.” Ella told Darren the whole truth about how the villagers died.
”How did you know that?” asked Darren, his heart crushed by what he had just found out.
”The elders told us stories of long ago when our land was inhabited by people who were banished from their homes for the crimes that they committed. All the people who were found guilty for committing such horrible crimes were exiled here and kept away from the rest of the world. As the years passed, the population of the land grew and soon, this land became an independent world.
But it was said that
pened the scrolls and scanned them quickly.
Upon reading them, he immediately understood why the city before them was called the Impeccant City. The scrolls claimed that nothing that the citizens of the city could do would ever be considered wrong. No matter what they did, they were all regarded as innocent.
Moreover, if they wished to enter the city, they had to pay the guards at the gate a thousand magic herbs or something of equal value in exchange.
”Darren, do we really need to get in?” Ella was hesitant after reading the scrolls.
”Aren't you tired? We've been flying around all day. We need to get some rest.” After giving it some thought, Darren and Ella both signed the scrolls.
”Alright. Listen up, you little brats. No one in this city would care about who you are or where you come from. If you die in this city, no one would even give it a second thought. Are you sure you want to go in?” The city guard looked at them with disdain, feeling that neither Darren nor Ella possessed any form of power.
”Why do you care so much about us? How does this look to you? I dare say it is worth at least two thousand magic herbs.”
Darren unsheathed his sword and waved it in front of the guard.
The guard's eyes lit up. He recognized without a doubt that the sword in front of him was no ordinary sword. Why? He knew it was worth far more than two thousand magic herbs!
”You may enter!”
the guard shouted.
Darren looked at him thoughtfully and began to speak. ”Thank you! But before we go, I just have one more question.”
The guard sneered at Darren. ”Shut up you piece of shit! Get the hell out of here if you don't want to enter now,” he roared angrily.
”Wait, let him ask! He only needs to give us ten magic herbs!” Another soldier came running towards them and placated the other guard.
”Here you go.” Darren plucked out ten magic herbs from a small pouch and handed them over to the guard. ”I just wanted to know. If I killed you, no one would blame me, right? I mean, after all, we are in the Impeccant City.”
