Chapter 29: Isn't that ten thousand people?

I've decided to go to the Demon City, no problem.

The problem is, how do I get to the Demon City?

Where is the Demon City located?

Fang Nian thought for a moment and then went up to the succubus peak at night.

After making the decision, Fang Nian, carrying her daughter, quickly walked towards the Succubus Peak.

To be precise, it was done by running.

Walking slowly in the wilderness late at night is frightening.

Who knows what kind of wild animals are inside?

What he didn't know was that the wild animals here were more afraid than he was.

Many members of the Demonic Sect eat raw meat and drink blood. There are quite a few who lure wild beasts out at night and then hunt and eat them. The surviving beasts tremble at the sight of humans.

Before long, Fang Nian arrived at the foot of the mountain.

When we reached the stone archway, we couldn't go in.

"Qingqing".

As soon as Qingqing's personality emerged, the stone archway immediately stopped blocking Fang Nian.

Soon, Fang Nian arrived at Qiu Chi's courtyard again.

Qiu Chi's courtyard has been restored to its original state, and Fang Nian knocked on the door politely.

"Tap tap".

Qiu Chi: "Who is it?"

Pushing open the door, Qiu Chi saw Fang Nian and said, "You dare to come back? Aren't you afraid of Baihua?"

Fang Nian: "Baihua? She chased after me but failed."

As she spoke, Fang Nian looked into the house: "Where's Qiu Shui?"

Qiu Chi crossed her arms and said, "I'm leaving."

Fang Nian frowned: "Gone? Where did they go?"

Qiu Chi: "Devil City."

Upon hearing this answer, Fang Nian's eyes lit up. She was also going to the Demon City, so their destination was the same.

"Okay, could you please tell me how to get to the Demon City?"

Qiu Chi tilted her head: "You don't even know how to get to the Demon City, so there's no need for you to go, right? You'll die if you go."

Fang Nian: "Is the Demon City dangerous?"

"Danger?" Qiu Chi: "The Demon City is full of lunatics."

Fang Nian sighed. Could it be that the people of Succubus Peak and Witch Mountain aren't crazy?

Qiu Chi looked at Fang Nian and finally decided to take her to see what the Demon City was like, since her sister's affairs were her own business.

"Come with me."

After Qiu Chi went out, he closed the door and then turned and left.

Fang Nian quickly followed.

Qiu Chi looked back as he walked.

Aside from having some mental issues and believing he has a daughter, Fang Nian is honestly quite handsome.

He looks a bit crazy wearing his sister's clothes during the day, but now that he's wearing his own clothes, he looks very handsome.

No wonder my sister couldn't bear to part with him.

Soon, Fang Nian felt that the road beneath her feet was becoming difficult to walk on.

Is this a climb to the summit of the Succubus Peak?

The Demon City, atop the Succubus Peak?

Really? That place is so small, how could it possibly hold a whole city?

Is the so-called "demon city" just a small courtyard with only a few households?

"Is the Demon City on the mountaintop?" Fang Nian asked.

Qiu Chi: "You'll find out when you get up there."

Soon, the cliff face became almost vertical.

Those living up here are mostly disciples of the Succubus Palace who have little ability.

They were terrified and trembling when they heard that someone was coming.

Qiu Chi: "Are you really going to the Demon City? With your strength as a two-star demon, and your complete lack of understanding of the Demon City, you'll be completely devoured there."

"Not even a bone fragment will be left."

Fang Nian: "This is normal in the city."

The more people there are, the more exploitation there is. Isn't that normal?

Fang Nian has a split personality, but she's not stupid. Of course she knows what might happen in the city.

On the last stretch of the trail, which was almost a vertical cliff, Qiu Chi climbed ahead while Fang Nian followed behind.

Although it was night, you could still see a vast expanse of white.

Qiu Chi didn't notice this either. There were never any men next to her when she came up before, so she didn't think of it.

By the time I remembered, it was already the last few steps before reaching the summit.

Qiu Chi pretended not to care and continued climbing, her face flushed.

Fang Nian followed silently behind, and they eventually reached the summit together.

Qiu Chi pointed ahead: "Demon City."

Fang Nian took a few steps forward: "Up ahead?"

After walking a few steps, the view suddenly opened up.

Before me stretched a range of mountains.

However, the mountains are not quite the same as mountain ranges in the ordinary sense.

The land before us was a flat plain, while the mountains, like inverted jelly, were columnar and abruptly placed on the plain.

There is no connection between the mountains; they are separated by a distance.

Upon closer inspection, lights could be seen emanating from these columnar mountains.

Although the arrangement of the lights is not entirely regular, it is probably regular.

The lights seemed to be coming from inside the mountain.

They... are like the light shining through the windows of high-rise buildings at night.

These mountains have been hollowed out, standing on the earth like houses.

Once Fang Nian accepted this premise and looked at the mountains again, he suddenly felt that this was a city full of skyscrapers, with each mountain resembling a skyscraper.

The flat land between the mountains is like the greenery and roads at the base of a building.

"It really is a city."

In Fang Nian's eyes, everything had changed; it was now a world of reinforced concrete.

Fang Nian looked around and found that the city was incredibly large, stretching endlessly, seemingly... completely enveloping the Succubus Peak area.

It's not that there's a city outside the mountains, but rather that Succubus Peak is like a park in the middle of that city.

Fang Nian: "Is this area all Demon City?"

Qiu Chi nodded: "That's right, the training grounds of several low-level disciples, such as Succubus Peak and Witch Demon Mountain, are surrounded in the middle of the Demon City."

Fang Nian was a little confused: "So, does that mean all the disciples of the Demonic Sect will eventually have to return to the city?"

Qiu Chi looked at Fang Nian: "It's true that all the disciples of the Demonic Sect will return to the Demonic City. After the so-called 'newbie protection period' is over, of course they will have to return to the Demonic City and try every means to survive."

For elite disciples, Succubus Peak is like paradise, a place where they can frolic.

However, for non-elite disciples, places like Succubus Peak and Witch Mountain are many times more dangerous than Demon City.

Qiu Chi continued, "But it may not be this city."

Fang Nian tilted her head: "What do you mean? There are other demon cities?"

Qiu Chi: "To be precise, this is Wangcheng, and there are other demon cities as well."

"We are already within the City of Delusion. It's because of the Succubus Peak that we say the outside is the City of Demons. If we were in the outside world, in other places, we should call this place the City of Delusion."

Fang Nian realized that it was like people from a small town under a county town going to the county town and saying they were going to the county town.

However, if you go to a big city and then return to your county town, you shouldn't say you went to your county town; you should say you returned to XX County.

Fang Nian, in a half-conscious state, suddenly realized that the Demonic Sect was no small place!

This place is huge!

More than one city!

I used to think the Demonic Sect was just a small town, but now it seems that the Demonic Sect is not that simple.

The thought that everyone in the city was crazy sent chills down Fang Nian's spine.

Qiu Chi looked at Wang Cheng: "Actually, this place is very suitable for you."

Fang Nian looked at Qiu Chi: "?"

"There are many demonic palaces near Wangcheng. Those who stay in the demonic palaces to cultivate are the ones who are most likely to and most eager to break through in their cultivation level. On the contrary, within Wangcheng itself, combat strength is not the deciding factor."

"The reason why the City of Delusion is called the City of Delusion is because here, delusion can come true. Therefore, those who are most prone to delusion and have the deepest demonic nature thrive here."

"But powerful people don't necessarily live well here."

"The most important specialty of Wangcheng is a gem called 'Mingwang'. With the gem in hand, you can do anything, but your combat power is actually weakened here."

Fang Nian's consciousness, which was in a semi-conscious state, was sometimes clear and sometimes blurred. Hearing Qiu Chi say this, it felt like Qiu Chi was having an episode.

A gemstone called fame?

What does it mean for delusions to come true?

I want to become a billionaire, and it can really happen?

Qiu Chi: "You want to go to Wangcheng?"

"I was originally going to stay here to look after you for a while, but since you're going to Wangcheng, let's go together."

Fang Nian: "Are you going to Wangcheng too?"

"Seven years are up." Qiu Chi: "Even if I don't go to Wangcheng, I'll go to another demon city. Staying here will only turn me into a furnace."

Fang Nian and Qiu Chi moved very fast, heading down from the Succubus Peak towards the nearest city.

Fang Nian exclaimed, "This city is so big, I can't believe I've never heard of it before."

"Such a large city, wouldn't it be able to accommodate tens of millions, or even more, people?"

Qiu Chi: "There's no one here."

Forty minutes later, Fang Nian followed Qiu Chi to the edge of Wangcheng.

At that moment, Fang Nian immediately understood what it meant to be alone here.

A mountain-like black shadow appeared on the road ahead.

The shadowy figure held a sharp knife in its left hand and an iron whetstone in its right.

These are clearly the kind of knives a butcher would use.

However, this dark figure was terrifyingly tall, standing at least ten meters high!

Is this even human?
