The Gate Between Two Realms, from Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit to Fox Spirit Matchmaker

Chapter 114 Barren Land

She didn't want anything to happen to either Rainbow Cat or Tu Shan Ya Ya.

That would make the trouble much bigger.

Furthermore, Tu Shan Rongrong also specified the destination for the two of them.

Compared to the northern mountains and the western regions, this place in the south can be described as a barren land.

This also proves the saying, "Poor mountains and bad waters breed unruly people."

The southern lands were far from peaceful and tranquil like Tushan; they were a place where people could eat each other.

Although in name, the Southern Kingdom does have laws.

However, very few people actually follow this law.

Or, to put it another way, the law is only obeyed by the weak, while the strong are the ones who create these laws.

"Master, why go to the Southern Kingdom?"

"Logically speaking, wouldn't it be better to go to Beishan?"

Rainbow Cat was a little confused. If it was just a training exercise, wouldn't it be better to go to North Mountain?

Moreover, there are many powerful monsters in Beishan, and even more that could be suitable opponents for Rainbow Cat.

In Rainbow Cat's view, this is definitely a good place to hone his skills.

"Most of the demons of the Northern Mountains are on good terms with our Tushan."

"If you go, you will not achieve the goal of training."

"Moreover, if it causes Tushan to damage its relationship with some demon clans that it was originally on good terms with, it will be a loss for Tushan."

"Therefore, going to the south is the most suitable place."

"Over there, powerful clans dominate, and no one cares about your status as a disciple of Tushan."

"Even with Ya Ya's status, it doesn't really matter over there."

"Isn't this the kind of place that's suitable for the two of you to go and train?"

Tu Shan Rongrong smiled slightly and gave Rainbow Cat's answer directly.

But this answer made Rainbow Cat feel that something was wrong.

However, he didn't realize it and simply nodded in agreement.

It doesn't matter to Rainbow Cat where he goes, as long as he can achieve his goal.

"Yes, thank you for the assignment, Master."

"Then this disciple will go find the second-in-command and go to the Southern Kingdom together."

Rainbow Cat nodded in agreement and then eagerly walked behind the Bitter Love Tree.

"They're really in a hurry."

"However, it's a good thing to get there sooner."

Seeing how anxious Hongmao was, Tushan Rongrong smiled.

But soon, she also let out a soft sigh.

From the appearance of Rainbow Cat to the current standoff between Tushan and the Dao Alliance, it seems like only a short time has passed.

In reality, however, this has already caused the current situation between the two races to change twice.

Rainbow Cat was unaware of these matters, but Tu Shan Rongrong, as the ruler of Tu Shan, was well aware of them.

Meanwhile, Rainbow Cat has already found Tu Shan Ya Ya.

"So fast?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya's face lit up with excitement; she thought Rainbow Cat would come to find her tomorrow.

The thought of leaving Tushan soon and seeing the outside world filled her with excitement.

"Second Master, you have to promise me one thing before you go out this time."

"That means we're going to the South. You have to listen to me the whole way."

"We must not cause trouble, and we must not bring trouble to Tushan."

Rainbow Cat looked at Tu Shan Ya Ya, and before deciding to go out, the two made a three-point agreement.

Otherwise, even if he went out alone, he would never take Tu Shan Ya Ya with him.

Upon seeing that she was being restricted, Tu Shan Ya Ya's lips twitched involuntarily.

"You've got a really big order, kid."

"According to seniority, you should at least call me 'Senior Uncle'."

"I'm hundreds of years older than you."

"How could you say that about me?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya stared at Hong Mao with wide eyes, already feeling somewhat angry.

But Rainbow Cat simply looked elsewhere.

He didn't even look at Tu Shan Ya Ya, even though that was indeed the case in name, as he was a generation younger than Tu Shan Ya Ya.

He had already heard of Tu Shan Ya Ya's reputation in Tu Shan.

To put it bluntly, if they don't agree on three rules, Tu Shan Ya Ya will definitely cause him a lot of trouble once they leave.

"Okay, okay, I promise you."

"I'll do whatever you say. I won't cause trouble or make a fuss, okay?"

Seeing that Rainbow Cat was ignoring her, Tu Shan Ya Ya had no choice but to give in.

Because Tu Shan Hong Hong had told her before that if she caused any big trouble this time, she shouldn't even think about leaving Tu Shan until she broke through to the Demon Emperor level.

Therefore, at this moment, Tu Shan Ya Ya also understood that if she did not agree, Hong Mao would definitely not take her away from Tu Shan.

"Alright, let's go then."

"Our master told us to go to the southern lands for training."

"Let the second-in-command lead the way."

Rainbow Cat nodded, believing that since Tu Shan Ya Ya had agreed, she would definitely restrain herself.

As long as I'm careful, there shouldn't be any problems.

Soon, the two of them flew into the sky together, heading towards the south.

. . . .

Three days later, after traveling continuously, the two finally arrived at the border of the Southern Kingdom.

The Southern Kingdom has the largest territory, and it can be said to rank first among all the demon forces.

Moreover, in a sense, it is a place where humans and transvestites coexist peacefully.

It's just that this so-called symbiotic land is a bit special.

"This is the Southern Kingdom."

"It looks absolutely terrible."

"Compared to Tushan, they are far inferior."

Tu Shan Ya Ya covered her nose, feeling the air around her, and couldn't help but frown.

Having lived in Tushan for a long time, her face was full of disdain when she first came to the Southern Kingdom.

Not only her, but even Rainbow Cat frowned at this moment.

Not only was the surrounding area filled with sand and dust, but the air was also full of miasma.

Fortunately, Rainbow Cat and Tu Shan Ya Ya's cultivation levels were not low, and they were able to resist the invasion of miasma.

Otherwise, even just getting close to the Southern Kingdom would have caused them to collapse.

"Indeed, compared to the environment of Tushan, this place is very poor."

"Moreover, just as recorded in the Tushan Book, it is located in the southern barbaric land, and is also very barren."

"According to the map, the nearest town is at least 100 meters away."

Rainbow Cat looked at the map in his hand, a sense of doubt creeping into his heart.

This southern country is so vast; even if it's barren, it shouldn't be this obviously so.

"Let's go, the smell here is awful."

"People say that the Southern Kingdom is famous for its poison cultivators and poison demons."

"This border isn't a safe place either. If we run into them, we'll inevitably have to fight those disgusting guys."

Tu Shan Ya Ya shook her head; she was eager to get to the town as soon as possible.

At this moment, she didn't understand why Tu Shan Rongrong wanted them to come to this godforsaken place.

But soon, when the two arrived in town together, they were both shocked.

Although I had long anticipated that this southern region would be extremely barren, I never imagined it would be this barren.

The houses were all made of stone and earth, and even the best buildings in the town looked weathered.

The sandstorm raged and swirled, making the town look like a living hell.

"There are beggars everywhere, and even dead bodies on street corners."

"Does this Southern Poison King simply not care at all?"

Seeing this, Tu Shan Ya Ya also showed a look of pity on her face.

Where in Tushan can you see such a scene?

This inevitably made Tu Shan Ya Ya feel a sense of disgust towards the name Huan Du Qing Tian.

"There are at least a hundred towns in the south."

"Unlike Tushan, which only has two towns, it is much easier to manage."

"This southern country is inherently barren, so even if this situation occurs, it shouldn't be the fault of the Southern Poison King."

Unlike Tu Shan Ya Ya, Hong Mao doesn't only look at the surface of things.

Although the town here looks dilapidated, these houses were actually built a hundred years ago, or even earlier.

If that's the case, then it means that the South was not as barren as it appears now.

This was recorded in the books that Rainbow Cat read.

The Southern Kingdom, as the first demon emperor's power, has been a rich land since its inception.

But for some reason, the situation in the South is getting worse year by year.

"You really do like to speak up for others."

"Forget it, you're probably just spouting the same old rhetoric. I'm speaking out for justice."

Tu Shan Ya Ya covered her ears, not really wanting to hear Hong Mao spouting platitudes.

Even though she looked like the elder, Rainbow Cat's lectures had been so over the years that she was practically sick of hearing them.

There's increasingly no way to deal with Rainbow Cat.

"Second Master, things aren't as bad here as you think."

"Look, although there are many poor people, some are even starving to death."

"But the surrounding shops are just as bustling with people."

"This also means that the town is not as bad as we thought."

"It's just that it's very difficult for ordinary people to live here."

Rainbow Cat glanced at the shops lining the street, which were almost all bustling with people and vehicles.

There are many poor people, and many even starve to death because they don't have enough to eat.

However, there are also quite a few cultivators here.

"They're all just a bunch of poison cultivators, a disgraceful bunch."

"Let's find a place to stay first."

Tu Shan Ya Ya stretched and yawned. The two of them had already disguised themselves.

They looked like just two ordinary human teenagers.

Finding a place to rest is naturally a good thing, and Rainbow Cat didn't refuse.

The two of them then found an inn together.

Although the inn wasn't very nice, the two of them, exhausted from several days of work, didn't dwell on it.

They called the waiter over, and after he brought out a few dishes, the two decided to eat something and go back to their room to rest.

"Second-in-command, something seems wrong."

Rainbow Cat isn't new to venturing out into the world.

From the moment he stepped into the inn, he sensed that many eyes were focused on them.

This feeling made Rainbow Cat very uncomfortable, and he immediately understood the reason behind it.

"Is there a problem? What problem?"

"It's just a little dirty and messy, a little broken, isn't it?"

"No, you mean this is a rip-off shop?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya frowned slightly, but she was already a little tired and didn't think much of it.

But then, a thought struck him, and his eyes lit up.

She immediately realized where the problem lay.

"Don't get so excited, things aren't as simple as you think."

"Acting cautiously is of utmost importance."

Rainbow Cat knew they were being watched, so it wasn't good to be too obvious at this point.

On the contrary, Tu Shan Ya Ya looked eager to try.

This was the first time she had encountered such a situation, and being somewhat playful, she had already anticipated what was to come.

"Sigh, this lady seems to have no intention of listening to what I'm saying."

"We'll have to play it by ear for now."

Rainbow Cat sighed softly, a helpless expression on his face.

Soon, when the waiter brought the food up, Rainbow Cat also looked at the food on the table.

On the contrary, Tu Shan Ya Ya didn't hesitate at all and started eating in big mouthfuls, regardless of whether the food was poisoned.

However, whether it's poisonous or not isn't really that important.

Some minor poisons simply could not possibly enter Rainbow Cat and Tu Shan Ya Ya's bodies.

It posed absolutely no threat to the two of them.

Soon, the two of them finished the food on the table.

Just to be on the safe side, Rainbow Cat also gave half of the pills that Jade Luan had given him before he left to Tu Shan Ya Ya.

"Hey, this food doesn't seem to be poisoned."

"Are you mistaken?"

"Normally, shouldn't these people rush up to us immediately after we finish eating?"

"Then they said some harsh words and attacked us."

Tu Shan Ya Ya was somewhat puzzled as to why things didn't unfold as others had told her.

Rainbow Cat couldn't help but cover his forehead at this moment.

"I was just saying there were some issues, I didn't say the food was definitely poisonous."

Rainbow Cat was speechless at this moment.

From the moment he entered the inn, he felt that everyone's eyes were on the two of them.

This feeling is definitely not normal.

Even if they looked like outsiders, that didn't mean they were staring at them the whole time.

If Rainbow Cat's guess is correct, this really should be a shady shop.

"Tch, you must have guessed wrong."

"This place doesn't look like a shady business at all."

"Although it's a bit broken, the food is still quite delicious."

Tu Shan Ya Ya rolled her eyes at Hong Mao, then called over the waiter to prepare the bill.

But when the waiter brought the two of them over with a friendly smile and told them the amount, Hongmao and Tushan Yaya's expressions changed slightly.

"Ten taels of gold?"

"You might as well just rob us!"

Tu Shan Ya Ya slammed her hand on the table and stood up abruptly.

These are just a few simple dishes; there's no way they could cost ten taels of gold.

With so much money, you could not only have enough for a meal here, but you could even buy the whole place and still have some money to spare.

"Sir, this is our price."

"If you can't afford it, you can leave this female customer here with us."

The waiter looked at Tu Shan Ya Ya with a forced smile.

Even though she used her disguise powers, Tu Shan Ya Ya still looked like a lively young girl.

She doesn't look like an ordinary girl.

"Second-in-command, it seems this really is a shady business."

Rainbow Cat glanced around the inn and saw that many burly men had picked up weapons and surrounded them.
