Upon arriving in Nanyang County, Hong Yuan, a practitioner of the Sword Tao, detected the pervasive smell of gunpowder in the air as he disembarked from the flying boat.
Glancing over, he noticed the travelers at the Flying Boat Dock were all alert and vigilant, not engaging in conversation, each appearing to be in a hurry.
Furthermore, soldiers clad in black armor patrolled the area, occasionally stopping fierce-looking pedestrians to interrogate them.
Wartime readiness... it seems traveling to Pengcheng will be a problem. Hong Yuan's expression remained composed, his heart calm.
In a mundane world where no Martial Saints made their presence known, it could be said that currently he alone, with a sword in hand, could traverse both Nanyang and Qingyang prefectures.
