Chapter 28: Aunty Gui

From a distance, Tang San could see a colossal city wall, towering at a staggering height of a hundred meters. Indeed, it was no exaggeration to say that the city wall looked like an insurmountable cliff.

It wasn’t just a metaphor either—the wall was built between two large mountains, and the sheer cliffs perfectly framed it.

Thanks to the teachings of Wang Yanfeng, Tang San was already aware that Kali City was a basin city surrounded by mountains that provided the best natural defense for the city. Only on the north and south sides were sections of the wall, with city gates through which one could enter.

The city gates stood wide open, allowing free entry and exit. There were no city guards in sight, either

Wang Yanfeng didn't immediately lead Tang San into the city. Instead, he held him back, waiting nearby. They waited until there was a lull in the flow of demons entering and exiting the city gates, then quickly entered.

As soon as Tang San stepped through the city gates, he felt like he had entered another world.

They were located in the northeastern part of the Daemon Continent, so Wind Wolf Town was naturally cold for most of the year. However, inside Kali City, it felt more like a pleasant end of spring. The air was warmer, more humid, and richer in spiritual energy than the outside, and it immediately made Tang San feel refreshed.

The city's streets were paved with solid and even stone slabs, and on either side of the roads stood tall buildings made of wood and stone.

As he walked through the city, Tang San saw more and more demon races. Compared to the world outside, the diversity was incredible. He mentally matched each of them to the types Wang Yanfeng had taught him about. Despite his intense dislike for the demon races, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

"Don't look," Wang Yanfeng whispered, stepping in front of Tang San to block his view. "What did I tell you?"

"Yes," Tang San responded, lowering his head.

His observations weren't just casual glances. At that moment, his heart was filled with shock. The demon races were even mightier than his original world's soul beasts at their most powerful.

Although just one of the main cities of the demon race, Kali City was filled with plenty of demon clans, and each of their members emanated a powerful aura. Every clan had its unique characteristics. Even the more common demon races seemed to possess formidable strength. Indeed, humans without any unique talents were vastly inferior to them.

Tang San couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It was exceedingly difficult for humans to contend with the demon race in this world. To change this situation would require starting from the very foundation. Only if humans also possessed the ability to cultivate and strengthen themselves could change be possible. Even so, it would be challenging, as the demons and nymphs held too much control over the continent. Humans would likely be suppressed immediately if any such abilities were discovered, and they would simply be killed or sent back into slavery.

Moreover, was the Demonic God Transformation the way out for humanity? Certainly not! The origin of the Demonic God Transformation was rooted in the oppression of humans by the demon race, leading to the mixing of human bloodlines with that of demons. In reality, such mixed blood was far inferior to the pure bloodlines of the stronger demon races.

Tang San noticed other guests at the inn, primarily human vassals. The size of the beds suggested that the inn was designed for humans. The inn most likely served as a designated place of rest for human vassals in Kali City.

The inn didn’t even have a signpost outside, and it had a small yard in front where some vegetables were growing. All in all, it gave off a feeling of tranquility, and it seemed a rather secluded place, a pleasant break from the bustling city life.

Perhaps this is a haven for humans in Kali City.

About an hour later, as dusk fell, Wang Yanfeng returned and called Tang San for dinner.

The meal was hearty, with plenty of meat, but the taste was average at best. Since arriving in this world, Tang San had not enjoyed a truly flavorful meal. Even the wolf demons of Wind Wolf Town ate similarly, just in larger quantities.

The culinary standards of this world seemed far inferior to those of his original world.

During the meal, Gui Gui joined them and asked Wang Yanfeng, "Are you taking him with you tomorrow?"

Wang Yanfeng turned to Tang San. "Tomorrow, I must submit the list to the Wind Wolf ancestral home. Do you want to come along? There's no danger, but we still need to be careful. Any wolf demon there is stronger than the Wind Wolf Lord back home."

"I'll come with you," Tang San replied without hesitation.

His cultivation of the Mysterious Heaven Technique and Wind Blade had improved, and he hoped to learn more from the wolf demons. Absorbing the essence of a higher-order wolf demon, if his body could withstand it, would greatly benefit his cultivation and allow him to break through faster.

"Alright." Wang Yanfeng nodded in approval.

Gui Gui gave Wang Yanfeng a curious look. To her, Tang San was just a nine-year-old boy, but Wang Yanfeng's attitude toward him was more that of an equal. This behavior struck her as odd.

Turning to Tang San, Gui Gui asked, "Little San, what level have you reached in your Wind Wolf Transformation?"

Tang San looked at Wang Yanfeng for guidance on how to reply.

1. Her name is 鬼, which means “ghost” and other such. ☜
