Sima You Yue had no interest to know anything regarding the grudge between the Commanders Manor and the City Lords Manor. In order to avoid being noticed by anyone, the two left after hearing the information.

But even so, they were almost discovered when they were leaving.

After they returned, Sima You Yue asked about matters regarding Great Bridge City.

Old Man Li was startled, Are you guys certain it is the Great Bridge City?

When she saw how big Old Man Lis reaction was, Sima You Yue asked curiously, Is there something about Great Bridge City?

Its because you guys do not know about Great Bridge City, Old Man Li sighed, The periphery of the Imperial Capitals is all peaceful, it is only the area in Great Bridge City. The terrain is rough, and there are also many dangerous places. Moreover, it is very strange there. In some places there were incidents where people would disappear as they were walking.

So eerie?

Yes, and no matter how powerful the people were, they couldnt figure out the reason why. Once they disappeared, they did not appear again. When he thought about something like this, Old Man Li felt a little apprehensive.

Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu looked at one another, they had the same curiosity and fear in their hearts.

It looked like the Soul Region was really different compared to other places. There would be terrifying winds, and even places like Great Bridge City.

Since the Great Bridge is so dangerous, why are the Talent Trials going on there? Sima You Yue did not understand, Is it to pick out better talents?

I dont think so. Wu Lingyu shook his head, Although they are talented, I do not think their abilities will be very strong. It would not matter if they lost one or two people, but if many people died, it would not be worth it.

Why would geniuses who had already grown up and chosen their masters, or had already started developing, wait for these types of tryouts? That was why those who joined this tryout, would naturally be the young and talented ones.

However, the young here was not counted by your age, it was calculated by the time that they arrived in the Soul Region.

Sima You Yue thought the same. If these people were to die or disappear, they would suffer a huge loss.

Then why did they choose to hold it at such a dangerous place? The person who raised the question this time was Old Man Li, because he could not think of a reason either.

Only those in power will know. Perhaps we will know more about it after we arrive there. Wu Lingyu said.

You guys are still planning to go there? Old Man Li looked at them in surprise.

Since we know that the Talent Trials will be held there, of course we will have to go. Sima You Yue said with certainty.

Do you guys know that other than these, there are still other dangers?

We dont even have to think to know. However, this will not stop us. Sima You Yue laughed, Furthermore, where in this world would there be so many places that are filled with peace? See how many people are still safe and sound today, but they may be dead tomorrow. A safe place does not mean there are no dangers, and a dangerous place may not also be totally unsafe. Uncle Li, shouldnt you be the one who would feel this way?

Old Man Lis body trembled. What Sima You Yue said was not wrong, sole cultivators like them could understand this the most. Even if they were alive today, who knows if tomorrow would come. Even if they were at a safer place, did it mean that they would not still need to face various dangers?

Just like the huge wind that was blowing this time. He had no money, so if he was blown to death, or if he could only promise to go serve a year of forced labour, either way meant death. Who knows how it would be like going to the Great Bridge City? He might even be able to find a way out.

However

Sima You Yue saw that he was uncertain and thought that he was unwilling, and said, If you really do not wish to go, we will not force you. After all, the road ahead is too dangerous.

Its not that Im not willing, but I just dont know much about it. However, I have a friend there. If we go over, we can look for her and understand more about the situation there. Old Man Li calculated in his heart, he decided to go with them.

It will be easier if you have a friend. Sima You Yue laughed. News that is not easy for outsiders to inquire about, will be easier to hand over to the locals.

In that case, when the Tempest Season ends, we can start departing. Old Man Li said. Seeing Sima You Yue nod her head, he felt relieved. He was previously still afraid that she may not bring him along.

After two days, the sunny day had suddenly changed. The sky that was clear and bright just minutes ago, turned hectic and windy.

When the wind started blowing, all of the city gates closed. The Great Defence Array immediately started, and those who did not manage to enter the city in time were all locked out of the city. The gret winds blew, they were all blown up into the sky.

Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu stood at the side of the window, watching as the people were swept into the air, vanis.h.i.+ng after holding on for only a while. They sighed at the power of this wind

What Uncle Li said was correct, this wind is indeed terrifying. If we were outside, with abilities like mine and no trump card, I may not even be able to resist it. Sima You Yue sighed.

This wind is very strange, it is as if it is rising from the ground. Wu Lingyu had not seen such a situation before.

Exactly, I dont know whats going on either. Moreover, hearing what Uncle Li said, only the Azure Dragon Soul Region has it. The other three places dont! Sima You Yue was curious, but now she did not have so much energy to find out more.

If you are interested, you can slowly investigate after you save your mother.

Mm. She could only remain curious now.

After the Tempest Season is over, we will have to deal with those people. Wu Lingyu said.

The City Lords Manor and the Commanders Manor,huh. I wonder which will come first.

Old Man Li was currently on the streets, looking up at those who had been blown up to the sky by the wind. There were a few of them that he knew. He watched them struggle in the wind for a while before being torn apart by the wind, turned into black smoke and disappearing forever.

If he did not meet Sima You Yue, if was not willing to serve the forced labour, he would have ended up in the same situation as them.

It did not matter if the Great Bridge City was dangerous. At least he would have a chance to remain alive. Even if he were to die in the end, he would also have lived a few more days!

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes no longer contained any signs of hesitation. He turned around and returned to the inn, wanting to tell Sima You Yue everything that he knew.

After hearing what he said, Sima You Yue was surprised.

You say that youve discovered ore veins in Great Bridge CIty before? Is that true? Sima You Yue asked.

It is true. Old Man Li nodded his head solemnly, If it was not for this, I would not have avoided going there for so many years.

Didnt you say that you were not familiar with the place? How do you know that there are ore veins outside the city? Wu Lingyu asked.

Because what had happened that time was too tragic. None of us wanted to recall it again. It was what had happened that time that let us know that there were many places that would make people disappear unknowingly. As he recalled the situation back then, he could not help but s.h.i.+ver.

Seeing him this way, Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu knew that there must have been something that happened in between.
