Fusang Sword Heart Diagram

Ning Fusang nodded and went upstairs.

She raised her hand and knocked on Yang Ruo's house.

Soon, the sound of a low stool being tripped over was heard inside the room. Yang Ruo hurriedly walked around the table and came to open the door.

Upon seeing a face that was both unfamiliar and familiar, Yang Ruo opened her mouth and called out, "Ning, Xiao Ning."

Ning Fusang entered the room, gestured for him to close the door, and then set up a barrier before asking, "How's your progress lately, Senior Brother?"

Yang Ruo poured her a glass of water and began to speculate, "Junior Sister Ning, Senior Brother Chi might really not be in Yuecheng territory."

"The City Without Daylight".

Ning Fusang uttered two words, and Yang Ruo's expression changed in surprise.

"Junior Sister Ning also knows about Wuzhou City? From the information I've gathered, Senior Brother Chi Leng has most likely gone to Wuzhou City."

Wuzhou City is the territory of a demon lord from the Spirit Realm. That demon lord dislikes sunlight, so he used the magic treasure Yin-Yang Reversal Banner to cover the sky above Wuzhou City, causing the city to never see the light of day.

Ning Fusang took out a piece of bark with Chi Leng's mark engraved on it. "I found it at the Demon Realm dock."

"The sign points to the City of No Daylight."

Ning Fusang looked at him and said, "Senior brother, pack your things. We'll set off for Wuzhou City early tomorrow morning."

"It just so happens to be the Peacock Demon King's birthday recently, and all the demons with names and surnames are heading to Giant Spirit Mountain to celebrate the Demon King's birthday. With more demons passing by, the checks will be a bit more lenient."

If Chi Leng is in Wuzhou City, this is the best time to go find him.

The Demon Lord of Wuzhou City will inevitably go to Giant Spirit Mountain in person. Without the Demon Lord in charge of the city, it will be much easier for them to carry out their duties.

Ning Fusang went downstairs to find Xiao Bi and asked her to replenish the crystal.

Three days later, at Yuecheng Restaurant.

Qianmei, Jinshan, and Lipo Demon Lord arrived as promised.

Ning Fusang was nowhere to be seen.

Gray Feather looked out of the building and thought to herself, "That Jade Belt Butterfly Lord is really inconsiderate, actually making His Highness wait for her!"

Bai Yeqing's eyes were unreadable. He suddenly smiled and said, "It seems that Jade Butterfly Lord will not be coming today. Oh well, I won't wait for her."

Qianmei raised her wine glass to Bai Yeqing, and he obliged, drinking it all in one gulp.

After a round of toasts and drinks, Qianmei stood up and said, "Young Master Bai, Qianhong Cave knows that its strength is too weak to go to Giant Spirit Mountain. To congratulate His Majesty the Demon King on his joyous occasion, Qianmei has prepared a gift and hopes that Young Master Bai can present it to him on my behalf."

Even after seeing Bai Yeqing's true form, Qianmei didn't connect him with the son of the Demon King, only considering him a member of a branch of the Peacock Clan.

The Demon Lord of Jinshan and the Demon Lord of Lipo also stood up and presented valuable treasures.

"I hope that Young Master Bai can present this gift on my behalf."

"Of course, of course, I will certainly convey your good wishes."

Bai Yeqing smiled and gestured for Huiyu to put everything away.

With less than a month to go before the Peacock Demon King's birthday, Bai Yeqing and Huiyu still had a long way to go. After the celebration banquet, they left Moon City that afternoon.

*
After traveling day and night for several days, Ning Fusang and Yang Ruo finally arrived at the territory of Wuzhou City.

A tall stone gate rose abruptly from the ground, and the area inside the gate was nothing but a deep, inky black.

The little demon in front of the stone gate, wearing a black cloak, with a thin face, sharp teeth, and dark red eyes, carefully stared at every demon entering the City of No Daylight.

Suddenly, he grabbed a demon by the collar, "Your true form is the Light Chicken?"

"Kick-kick--!"

The demon reverted to its original form, a golden rooster, and was thrown heavily to the ground.

"No Day City doesn't allow such bright things to enter, get out of here!"

The cloaked imp rebuked in a cold voice.

The radiant rooster leaped to its feet, transforming back into human form. It cupped its hands in greeting and said, "Lord Mingming, I am merely passing through Wuzun City and will not linger there. You see..."

Hei Mingming flicked his sleeves, his attitude resolute: "No way! If you drop even a feather in the city and the Demon Lord sees it, I can't bear that punishment!" In the middle of the group, Yang Ruo whispered to Ning Fusang, "This cloaked little demon seems so strict. Little Ning, can we sneak in smoothly?"

Ning Fusang transmitted his voice, "With the pass, what are you afraid of, Senior Brother?"

"Don't feel guilty."

Yang Ruo had no choice but to calm down and turn her head to look at the situation in front of her.

Bright Chicken looked around and stuffed something into Black Darkness's hand. Although Black Darkness didn't let him pass, his attitude softened.

"Since you are just passing through Wuzhou City, let me show you the way."

The Bright Chicken adopted a listening posture.

Hei Mingming pointed northeast, "You can go around Wuzhou City from Daqi Mountain over there."

The Bright Chicken was dumbfounded.

The "Qi" in Daqishan means "fork in the road".

The maze above is incredibly complex and full of strange paths, not to mention the countless unintelligent wild beasts. If he could cross the Great Qi Mountain, why would he need to come to Wuzhou City to pay the toll?
Hei Mingming waved his hand, losing patience: "Get out of the way quickly, don't block the others who want to enter the city."

The Bright Chicken was quickly dragged away by the two little demons.

The group moved forward at a snail's pace, and it wasn't Ning Fusang and Yang Ruo's turn yet.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves mingled with the clear, melodious sound of bells.

Upon seeing the peacock feathers hanging on the carriage, Hei Mingming immediately directed the demons to make way.

As the carriage passed by Ning Fusang, a gentle breeze lifted the curtain, and Ning Fusang caught only a fleeting glance at the demon inside.

White Night Clear.

He set off three days later than her, yet he arrived ahead of her and Yang Ruo.

The demons watched the shadow of the carriage and began to discuss it.

Yang Ruo hadn't been learning the demon language for long, and he had no problem conversing with demons individually, but with so many voices intertwined, it was quite difficult to distinguish them.

"Who just passed by? Such a big shot, Lord Black Darkness, you didn't even stop them."

"Yes, the carriage didn't show any pass!"

"The carriage is so magnificent and exquisite; the one sitting inside must be some renowned demon lord!"

"I only caught a quick glance and saw some gorgeous feathers hanging on the carriage. I didn't see them clearly. They must be bird demons, right?"

He stepped onto the stone table and shouted, "Stop looking, line up!"

"Those without a pass, get out of my way and stop causing me trouble! If you're discovered and any demon tries to sneak through, don't blame the swords and spears of Wuzhou City for being blind!"

After being given a dressing down, the line returned to order.

Yang Ruo handed his pass to the demon guarding the gate. The demon checked it twice and, finding no problems, let him pass.

Beyond this gate lies the territory of the City of No Day, but it is still some distance from the true City of No Day.

Ning Fusang carefully put away the pass and set off with Yang Ruotong and the other demons who wanted to enter Wuzhou City.

To enter the City of No Day, a certain amount of crystals must be paid.

Ning Fusang had anticipated this; seeing that Yang Ruo had the crystals he needed to exchange, she didn't pay him.

"No lanterns or fires are allowed in the city during the day. Violators will be severely punished. Please abide by this rule."

After accepting the crystals, the little demon guarding the city gate meticulously instructed the two on the city rules.

Monks can see in the dark without lighting candles, and it does not affect their vision.

Most demons actually have better night vision, so this city rule isn't too difficult for them.
