Cultivation Online

1356 Southern Stronghold

After traveling for several more days, Tian Yang and Huang Xiao Li finally encountered something that wasn't a magical beast.

"Excuse me! Do you know where the nearest city is located?" Tian Yang approached a cultivator who had just finished defeating a magical beast.

However, this cultivator immediately became wary of him and went into a combative stance.

Tian Yang quickly raised his hand when he saw this, and he tried to assure the cultivator that they meant no harm, "Please wait. We are not here to harm you. We're simply lost."

Unsurprisingly, the cultivator did not even twitch at his words and remained wary.

They were currently on the Desolate Continent, where laws do not apply and only one rule applies— the law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak.

In this world, it was a common occurrence for cultivators to engage in acts of murder and theft. Those lacking the strength to protect themselves would inevitably fall victim to exploitation.

Tian Yang was well aware of this rule, but they were not in a position to ignore another human after spending an entire week wandering and lost in this dangerous land.

"Hah! Do I really look that stupid to you?! You say you're lost? That's funny, considering that the nearest city is only a mile from here!" The cultivator sneered in disdain.

"Really? Is that true?" Tian Yang was pleasantly surprised to learn this information.

"I must admit, you are pretty good at acting. If I was even a little dumber, I would've believed you!" The cultivator said.
