The Marketplace.
Unlike his last hurried trip, this time Zhu Ju planned to take his time and browse properly.
Pei Jingque had matters to attend to and wouldn't return to Dragon Head Peak for several days.
Those who had accompanied Pei Jingque could leave ahead of time.
Or they could wait to travel back together.
Zhu Ju, of course, chose to wait. It was the only way to guarantee his safety.
He had plenty of time, so there was no need to rush.
The Marketplace was built against a mountain and was as large as a county town in the Mortal World. The truly bustling area, however, was confined to its core.
The outskirts were mostly gathering places for Mortals and Loose Cultivators, also known as the Outer Market.
It was said that murders were common in the Outer Market. Even with the Patrol Team established by the Xiao Family, they couldn't be completely prevented.
Even so, this was already considered quite good.
Leaving the Marketplace was where the real danger lay.
