After passing Huailai City, the road ahead was smooth.
This wasn't to say there were no factions along the way, just none that were particularly powerful or chaotic.
Paying tolls to pass was a matter of course, and Du Youqian had no intention of trying to travel the entire way without spending a single coin.
As long as the rates were reasonable, there was no issue.
After just under half a month, the caravan arrived in the central region of the Endless Desert Sea's Four Great Domains—the very place where Du Youqian had once attended an auction.
This region was rather hostile toward the Demon Race.
To prevent the Long-tailed Golden Chickens from being stolen, butchered, and roasted, Du Youqian had them disguise themselves as servants.
The Long-tailed Golden Chickens didn't find this insulting in the slightest. On the contrary, with food to eat and a place to sleep, they were quite content.
