Condemning The Heavens Chapter 458

Chapter 458: 458

As they left the village, they found that the trails and pathways they had been using so far changed into roads with gravel, clearly, they were much more used than the ones that lead towards the forest .

While it was a normal gravel road, it was much better than walking on a pathway that would vanish at one time, or turn into an animal trail at another .

These gravel roads were definitely leading towards civilization, and thus, towards soldiers and other armies .

Xue Wei and the others walked down the gravel road for a whole day without meeting another village, or any signs of life, but the road was getting bigger and bigger, and soon they reached a crossroads where the road they were currently walking split into two others .

Xue Wei looked at the two roads . One looked more deserted than the other . Gra.s.s and weeds were growing amongst the gravel, and it did not seem to be as frequently traveled as the other .

It was easy to guess which road to take .

Heading towards the more used road, Xue Wei and the others walked on the worn-down stones, heading towards a bigger town .

Although Xue Wei and his friends were soldiers sent here from the Demon Phoenix Continent, they felt more like tourists .

There were no warriors or soldiers around the area, and the citizens completely ignored Xue Wei and his comrades .

It was clear that they were unaware that Xue Wei was a soldier from the Demon Phoenix Continent .

Next, they arrived at a bigger town, not a village like the ones they had seen so far, and while the town was bigger, there were also stronger experts . Within the town they could detect the aura of at least eleven Saint ranked experts .

Xue Wei was standing outside the town and contemplating . Should they take the chance and enter to scout for some information, or should they take a risk and avoid the civilized areas while stumbling around looking for the military camp?

Xue Wei was not one to cower in front of danger, so it did not take him long to decide that they were going to enter the town .

Luoluo and Bai Tianyi were both completely calm and collected, but Hei Gou and Lin Xiao felt the backs of their hands wet from their cold sweat .

They were extremely nervous, and feared that they would be noticed at any moment, after which the entire town would face off against them .

Seeing their nervousness, Xue Wei's lips twitched in amus.e.m.e.nt . If they were so nervous, it was likely that others would notice them, while those who were confident and calm would not be doubted .

Seeing the teasing gaze Xue Wei sent them, Lin Xiao and Hei Gou suddenly calmed down and realized the same things as he had . If they were too nervous, they would invite trouble, so they took a deep breath and calmed their hearts .

Honestly, it was natural to understand why they were nervous . The people they were up against were more than double their own numbers, and one of these Saints was a Heavenly Saint, very close to reaching the next realm .

He had not reached the next rank yet, the King Rank, but even so, he could not be belittled .

Xue Wei and the others were not Heavenly Saints, so if they were to fight against this expert, they would have to use all their tricks and abilities in order to win .

This thought made Xue Wei's blood boil, and he was almost eager to find the expert to challenge him to a duel, but he knew that it was not the time to do so .

They were here to fight in a war, not to challenge strong experts . But their enemies had vanished, and all they could find were commoners .

Xue Wei and the others slowly made their way to the center of the town . It was not a ma.s.sive town, but it did contain at least a couple thousand households .

In the town square was an inn, and while not many came to rest in this establishment, many came to eat and drink .

"I want a roast duck," Luoluo suddenly said, as her eyes were glued to the inn in front of them . The scent of freshly cooked food was wafting out through the door, and Luoluo was swallowing her saliva .

Although she was a cultivator and did not need to eat to sustain her lifestyle, she was a little foodie who enjoyed good food .

Xue Wei's features softened when he heard Luoluo's request, and he nodded his head .

He had already planned on entering the inn, as it would be the best place to gain information on what was happening, so when they entered, they needed to pretend to be regular customers . As such, they needed to buy food and drinks .

As they entered, they found that it was almost full, only three tables were unoccupied, and the waiter who noticed them instantly led them towards one of the bigger tables .

Xue Wei threw an essence stone at the waiter who accepted it graciously . The table they had found was located in the middle of the inn, and they could hear everyone's buzzing voices . The bustling atmosphere was enough to give anyone a headache, but this was precisely what they wanted .

"I want some various dishes and drinks . Amongst them I want a roast duck," Xue Wei ordered the waiter, who was somewhat puzzled as to why they were so particular about a roast duck, but it was a stable on their menu, so he hurriedly accepted the task, and went to get the dishes from the kitchen .
