The same scene quietly unfolded on several other roads leading into Cangwu City.
Because Cangwu City is backed by East Lake's most powerful Immortal Sect, a force that oppresses even the Hundred Sects Alliance, Cangwu City naturally became the safest city in East Lake. Various people started gathering toward Cangwu City, wanting to make it their future home. And as people gradually swarm to Cangwu City, business opportunities grow, attracting more and more merchant caravans to it.
