Caspian had been to a city before, so there must be guards at the city gate.
The more important the town was, the more strictly guarded the entrance. There were even formations at the city gate in some of the most strategic cities. Once a shape-shifting demon or dark cultivator tried to sneak in, formation would be activated and force them to appear.
The purpose of doing so was to ensure the safety of the city. After all, most of the people living in that city were ordinary people, and cultivators were only a small part.
If shape-shifting demon or dark cultivator got involved, then the cost would be unimaginable. Not only shape-shifting demon or dark cultivator, but also some criminals and cultivators wanted by the imperial court or the sects were unable to enter the town.
However, Same Spirit City in front of favonovel.com was different.
According to Mona, Same Spirit City was divided into a new city and an old city. From this angle, one could see that there were guards at the gate of the new city, and Caspian could also see spiritual Qi activated by formation. However, there was no guard in the old city next to the new city. Anyone could enter and exit at will.
“Aren’t you worried that demons and dark cultivator will sneak in?” Caspian was confused.
Because in his opinion, the White family and demons had been fighting for a long time.
For cultivators and civilians of this city, the White family was their faith and spiritual pillar. For demons, the White family was a thorn in their side. When favonovel.com led the troops to battle that year, Caspian was very clear about the principle of capturing the rebels first.
It was the same here.
If a shape-shifting demon took advantage of this place to enter the city and kill the remaining members of the White family, wouldn’t that be equivalent to destroying the spirit totem of Same Spirit City?
Taking advantage of the opportunity to enter the city, Caspian finally asked this question.
Originally, favonovel.com thought that there was a special way to identify demons and cultivators. However, Mona was stumped by the question.
After thinking for a long time and entering the city, favonovel.com replied, “I don‘t know the specific reason, but many years ago, there were indeed shapeshifting demons that wanted to sneak in.”
“And then?” Caspian asked.
“Before that guy entered the city, favonovel.com suddenly covered his head and showed his true form. Then favonovel.com ran away,” Mona said, “But I don’t know why.”
“It seems that there are still some special ways,” Caspian muttered.
At this time, Mona Jones said, “But under normal circumstances, demons or dark cultivators would never dare to come in.”
“Why?” Caspian was curious.
“Because cultivators who came to the old city came here because they admired the White family. And many cultivators would automatically protect the White family… Although this old city doesn’t seem to have any protection, the invisible defense may be much more tightly guarded than the new city,” Mona Jones replied.
‘In that case, it is indeed possible. But in the final analysis, this kind of confidence was exchanged with the lives ofthe previous generations of the White family…’ Caspian thought.
After entering the city, Mona would be in charge of going to the White family to see the ancestor. She first arranged for favonovel.com companions to return to the family to report, and then led Caspian forward.
Caspian had already made a guess through observation. Now that favonovel.com saw Mona’s various arrangements, favonovel.com was completely sure.
Mona was also head of the clan of a certain clan in Same Spirit City. No wonder favonovel.com had such great prestige in front of those people.
Mona led the way. After walking for a while, favonovel.com arrived at an old house in the old city.
This kind of old houses could be seen everywhere in this old city. The only difference was that the position might be deeper. Anyway, if it weren’t for Mona leading the way, Caspian would probably have passed by the old house of the White family and not known that this was his destination.
There were no guards in front of the old mansion of the White family.
Mona knocked on the door three times.
Soon, the door opened, revealing an old man’s face. This old man should be a gatekeeper.
She then revealed favonovel.com identity and told the purpose of this trip. After the gatekeeper answered, the door closed again.
Mona came back and said to Caspian, “He went in and reported. Please wait a moment, Your Excellency…”
Caspian nodded and said nothing.
There were not many expressions on Caspian’s face, so Mona did not know what favonovel.com was thinking. But in truth, after entering the territory of the White family’s residence, Caspian felt as if it were being suppressed. However, favonovel.com was certain that the oppressive feeling was not directed at him. This feeling made favonovel.com feel a little strange and curious. Therefore, Caspian remained calm and intended to test the White family’s people again.
Soon, the door opened again. It was the same room as before, indicating that the Patriarch and head of the clan wanted to invite Caspian and Mona to the mansion for a chat.
The atmosphere in the old house of the White family was very quiet, as if there was no one living in the mansion at all. However, Caspian had heard from Mona that more than half of the White family’s men had died in battle. The remaining few were women and children, so favonovel.com could understand.
The gatekeeper led them to a small building in the backyard and turned to leave. It seemed to be Mona’s first time here, and favonovel.com looked a little nervous.
She looked back at Caspian, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.
It was a man who looked to be thirty-six or thirty-seven years old who opened the door.
This man was gentle and refined, with a long beard on his chin. If one didn’t call someone with this temperament a cultivator, it was easy to be regarded as a sophisticated scholar in the secular world.
After seeing this man, Mona immediately revealed the other party’s identity, “Head of the clan Bai…”
“This way please…” The man smiled and nodded to Mona and Caspian. “Thank you for your hard work.”
When head of the clan White’s eyes fell on Caspian, Caspian faintly felt that something in vigor seemed to have been activated. But this feeling was fleeting. When favonovel.com realized it, it had disappeared. Therefore, Caspian couldn’t be sure whether this feeling was real or not.
Head of the clan had already invited them in, so nothing strange happened. After entering the room, Caspian found that the decoration in the room was also very simple, even giving people a feeling that it was too simple. At the end was a wooden couch with two chairs on both sides. Other than that, there were no other decorations.
After head of the clan came in, favonovel.com went straight to the side of a hunchbacked old woman sitting cross-legged on the bed.
This old woman was naturally the Patriarch of the White family, the only one who survived after activating the forbidden art seventy years ago.
At that time, the ancestor of the White family was a Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivator, but now, favonovel.com was just an old Pulse Control Realm cultivator who was about to exhaust his Qi and blood.
