The town in front of Zhang Yan seemed incompatible with the desolation and the darkness in the Huangquan Road. The dim light of the town had illuminated its surrounding area within a few miles and made it conspicuous.

While his moving toward it, he was still wondering, "Why a town was located here without the attacks from the ghosts? And why the people in it dare to light up? They don't know the light will attract ghosts?"

"Or they do, but they are not afraid of the ghosts?"

He got to know the answer, only when he arrived at the entrance of the town and discovered it was built of Anti-Soul Stones with a height of thirty feet and a thick iron gate inlaid with a large number of the stones. He nodded, "That's it! The Anti-Soul Stone has an immune suppression effect on souls, so it can disguise the warriors in the town from the outside ghosts."

"In addition, the stone can repress the ghosts as well, so they hate it and refuse to be close to it. That's why the people in it dare to light up in the darkness."

Approaching a little, he was discovered by the two guards on the wall. They shouted, "Who?"

He immediately replied, "I'm Zhang Yan who happens to find the town here and want to take a rest inside, can I?"

"You know human language and you should be a human warrior, so you can enter after paying a hundred upper spiritual stones!" One of them responded loudly.

He was shocked with a frown, thinking, "Protection fee?! And I have to pay a hundred upper spiritual stones, which is expensive! One such stone is far more enough to spend a night in the Fengdu City, but now, one hundred!"

Reluctantly, he took out a hundred upper spiritual stones and threw them to the two guards, "Here you are!"

One of them caught the stones with a smile, "Well, from the moment on, you are a member of this town and can feel free to go to the rest area." They opened the gate just a crack to let Zhang Yan in.

He immediately walked into the town. Meanwhile, the gate behind him was shut instantly, as if fearing that other people would follow him in, which puzzled him.

The two guards seemed to see through his doubts and explained smilingly, "We are so cautious to avoid the ghosts' s sneak-in. what's more, it's sunset now and the Huangquan Road becomes more dangerous, so carefulness is necessary."

"This is a rest area and a gathering place for warriors. All the warriors who have been injured or want to rest in the road will come here to seek refuge." The other one smiled and added.

The previous one continued, "Of course, staying here, you don't have to worry about the ghosts to harass you. And you can have everything you want here, as long as you have enough spiritual stones."

"Thank you for your explanations!" Zhang Yan moved forward with joy.

Although not very big and luxurious, there were still many warriors in the town.

They were coming and going on the wide streets, but most of them hold the cultivation at only Martial Arts State. He discovered an inn where a few people were eating and stepped in.

It was a two-story building and there were couple of tables at the first floor. No one came over to serve him, so he walked to an available table and sit down on his own. Several minutes later, the waiters still didn't show up, therefore, he called loudly, "Waiter?!"

A man came out from the kitchenhe was the waiterwith a shout impatiently, "Don't scream! I'm on the way already!"

He came to Zhang Yan and asked dully, "What do you want?"

Unexpected of the waiter's so bad service attitude, Zhang Yan frowned and questioned, neglecting his anger, "Serve me two or so dishes of your specialty!"

The waiter replied still with no expressions, "We just own one signature dish, the Ice Spiritual Fish."

"The Ice Spiritual Fish?" Surprise hit Zhang Yan, "You do?" He had missed it a lot since the banquet in the Lord's House.

The waiter glanced at Zhang Yan scornfully, "Is it the first time for you to come to the Huangquan Road and the Warrior Gathered Town?"

Zhang Yan nodded, "Yep, so what?"

The waiter shook his head, "Oh, never mind, it's just that I can tell you are fresh here from your words and you are indeed unlucky to meet the night as soon as you enter the road, but really fortunate to find here."
