Wanlu Town.

The population of the most prosperous town near Mount Tai had almost reached 10 thousand at present.

Usually, the inhabitants of the surrounding stockaded villages would travel to Wanlu Town when they needed to barter and purchase items.

Additionally, before Mount Tai became a breeding ground for these hundred thousand zombies, this place was basically Godsend Academy’s hunting grounds and gardens.

As the top academy of Polan Prefecture, Godsend Academy had at least 50 thousand students.

From the outside, Godsend Academy was like a large city stationed near Mount Tai.

Because of its close proximity, the students of Godsend Academy could only go hang out in Wanlu Town on their break days. One can well imagine why Wanlu Town became so properous during these past few years.

It was nearing dusk, and the people in Wanlu Town were bustling about, some closing their stalls and some hurrying home.

Jing Linyao hurried along with five splendidly-dressed maidservants.

Not only was this entire group dressed gorgeously, they were also incomparably beautiful. They raised a stir wherever they walked.

However, Jing Linyao seemed to be deep in thought and did not pay attention to how other people saw her.

“Princess, we can only stay in Shuntian Prefecture for a little less than a month at most. We will have to return when time is up. Otherwise, we will be in trouble if we arouse Heavenly Law’s attention…” A maidservant informed Princess Jing quietly.

“Where are they?” Jing Linyao asked solemnly.

“In that Shunlai Tavern not far ahead.”

They quickly turned at the block and saw Shunlai Tavern’s signboard as expected.

As Princess Jing’s party of six were walking too fast, they nearly collided with another group coming from the other direction.

Both parties were entering Shunlai Tavern. Princess Jing halted and creased her eyebrows at the young lady who had stepped into the tavern alongside her.

That young lady was 24 years old and was wearing a clean dress that alternated between blue and cyan. Although her facial features were not outstanding, she made a good impression on people.

Five similarly-dressed young ladies were following her, and they all looked toward Princess Jing.

“Apologies.” Princess Jing and the leader of the other group spoke at the same time. They nodded at each other and exchanged pleasantries before beckoning the other person inside.

The two parties each stepped back. Afterwards, Princess Jing smiled at the leader of the other group with a nod and quickly led her maidservants inside.

“Princess, they are in the Tianzi Room on the second floor.”

That 25-year-old young lady looked at the direction that Jing Linyao left in. Afterwards, she called the five young ladies to come with her to a corner of the lobby. It was a quiet place hidden by several potted plants.

“Master.”

“Second Aunt-Master.”

“Second Aunt-Master.”

“Aunt Yi.”

The group made their greetings and sat down when two women beckoned to them with a smile.

“How has it been lately at the academy?”

“The mentors in the academy are not bad.” The leader nodded and informed, “Master, this time the six of us all obtained spots to go to Mount Tai. If things go smoothly, we should be able to pass these preliminaries at Mount Tai.”

“You must be careful.” Aunt Yi gazed at these children lovingly and reminded, “Where’s there’s life, there’s hope.”
