"Sneak into the Northern Territory? What do you mean?"
Gu Sheng asked even more puzzled.
The old man sighed and said to Gu Sheng, "I was originally a cultivator, but my cultivation is not high enough to cross the void. This journey was meant to smuggle into the Northern Territory, but I was still discovered."
Gu Sheng asked in confusion, "If you weren't discovered, how were you planning to reach the Northern Territory?"
The old man looked around to make sure there was no one else, then whispered, "This is the northernmost part of the Southern Domain. To reach the Northern Territory, one needs to enter a mysterious underground passage. Through that passage, one can enter a dark river, and landing from the dark river, you can reach the Northern Territory."
"Since there's such a passage, why don't you go openly and yet choose to smuggle?"
Gu Sheng asked even more puzzled.
"Hehe..."
