Xu Que had been very lucky. After escaping the clutches of the three women, the Divine Escape Emblem teleported them hundreds of miles away to a patch of ground just outside the main entrance of Tian Luo City.

Now that they had arrived at a big city, they could finally ask for directions to the Bright Moon Hotel! Xu Que walked towards the city gate, dragging Buttface behind him.

Tian Luo City was extremely large. Its size was quite spectacular!

The walls around the perimeter of the city were over three meters high. They were also extremely thick, for they had been constructed with bricks and bronze. These walls were more magnificent than any of the city walls within Five Elements Mountain.

Though the walls were old and rusty because of years of erosion, they were still firm, indomitable, and magnificent. The three words on the city gate, ”Tian Luo City,” seemed to tell their own story. Each letter was forceful, vigorous, and overrun with history.

”Buttface, did you ever come here ten thousand years ago?” Xu Que asked.

”I don't remember this city,” Buttface said, shaking his head. ”Besides, how could such a small city be noticed by my dharma eyes?”

”You have dog eyes!” Xu Que said disdainfully.

Still, Xu Que was impressed. If Tian Luo City was a small city, how large were the big cities?

Before coming to the East Continent, he had been informed that the overseas area contained beings that were far more powerful than the ones in Five Elements Mountain.

However, he had not expected the cities here to be so grandiose. This small city was larger and more magnificent than all the imperial cities in Five Elements Mountain!

Cultivators who were at the Void Training Stage were everywhere in the East Continent. Thus, it was difficult for Xu Que to act tough here. The only reason he was able to act tough earlier is that he was able to escape the situation directly afterward.

It was too dangerous to be causing trouble here. The best thing to do was to meet with the Water Empress as soon as possible. Thus, finding the Bright Moon Hotel was his top priority.

Xu Que approached one of the guards standing at the city gate. He didn't want to waste his time asking for directions within the city if he could help it.

”Sir, I am a scholar and I am new here,” Xu Que said. ”I am looking for a hotel called the Bright Moon Hotel. Could you inform me of its location, please?”

Even though Xu Que did his best to ask the guard for directions in a courteous manner, it seemed like the guard didn't like scholars much. He glanced at Xu Que and Buttface coldly.

”It is the tallest building in the city,” he said indifferently.

”What?” Xu Que was stunned.

Is the Bright Moon Hotel really in this city?

”What's wrong with you scholars?” the guard said with a frown. ”Everyone knows the Bright Moon Hotel is the tallest building in Tian Luo City. How could you not know that?”

”Maybe I am a fake scholar!” Xu Que said jokingly.

Without any further comment, Xu Que and Buttface entered the city.

This was truly Xu Que's lucky day. The Divine Escape Emblem could have teleported them anywhere within hundreds of miles. It just so happened that it brought them to the City where the Bright Moon Hotel was located. He was more likely to have won the lottery than to have wound up just feet away from the Bright Moon Hotel.

”This is great! We could have had to spend a bunch time and effort searching for this hotel, but the Divine Escape Emblem practically led us straight to it!” Xu Que said joyfully.

”Little brat, your spells are awesome! Could you give me some of them so that I can protect myself?” Buttface said.

”No way! You need to behave yourself! If you hadn't caused trouble back there, we wouldn't have needed to escape!” Xu Que said, staring at Buttface.

”Little brat, it was you who caused all that trouble!” Buttface said angrily, immediately annoyed that Xu Que was trying to put the blame on him.

”Whatever! The details don't matter,” Xu Que said, waving his hand. ”Anyway, we should keep a low profile while we're in this city! Lie low, understand?”

Xu Que knew that it was he who had caused the trouble in the burnt forest. He was just too stubborn to admit it.

Right now, all they needed to do was find the Bright Moon Hotel so they could meet the Water Empress there. He also knew that it was important to not stir up any trouble so that nothing would reflect badly on him or the Water Empress. Thus, he wanted to avoid causing trouble here at all costs.

Besides, he was just at level four of the Infant Transformation Stage. If he offended any cultivators at the Void Training Stage, he would need to run away again. He couldn't allow this to happen. It would be too shameful!

Tian Luo City was bustling with activity. Everyone seemed to be hurrying back and forth across the streets. To Xu Que's surprise, different kinds of creatures all lived in the city. Human cultivators, Demonic Beasts and Half-Human-Half-Demon beings all coexisted here.

However, Buttface informed him that the Demonic Beasts that he saw were actually Orcs, and the Half-Human-Half-Demon creatures were more closely related to the Demons. Buttface also said that these three species seemed to live in harmony, but that there were many private conflicts between these creatures.

Suddenly, Buttface came to a stop.

”Little brat, the tallest building is over there,” Buttface said, pointing at a tall building close by.
