Chapter 2488

Lillian was reluctant to leave. After all, it had taken them over a month of preparation to go there. It

seemed like such a waste to leave so early into their journey, but she knew they were out of

options. The technology and equipinent they had with them were falling apart, and they were all

exhausted. If they were to carry on, it would result in nothing but their demise.

Darryl beaITied at her words. ''Great, I plan on leaving this area as well. Let's stick together and

take care of one another for now.''

Darryl was relieved that Lillian had conie to her senses. He would have left them behind if she

had insisted on continuing their J• ourney.

''Whatever,'' Lillian retorted impatiently. For a split second, she had wanted to refuse his offer. That

man was far too cunning to keep around, and, rnost importantly, she desperately wished to be rid of

him once and for all, considering the ernbarrassing experience between thern. However, that area

was extrernely dangerous, and to have someone like Darryl, who was farniliar with that region, might

just be the safest option for them.

A few minutes later, Lillian and her rnen packed up their belongings swiftly and proceeded to exit

the Valley of Death with Darryl. He looked back as they stepped out of the Valley of Death,

overwhelmed with emotions and rnernories. It took another two hours before Darryl, Lillian, and the

others arrived at a town situated on the border between the Wild

Deserted Secret Region and the Nine Mainlands. Darryl's jaw dropped in awe the mornent they

stepped into the town. He rernembered distinctly that that area was nothing but ruins that were close

to the battlefield three years ago but had evolved into a town in such a short period.

The town, named Black Water Town, was fornied over the years as niore people ventured into the Wild

Deserted Secret Region frolll various places in the Nine Mainlands. Naturally, the people in that town

niainly were cultivators; ordinary people were as rare as hens' teeth. Darryl

followed Lillian and her nien as they strolled the streets of Black Water Town. His appearance resenibled a

caveman with clothes niade of aninial skin, untrinirned hair, and the scars on his cheeks soon becanie the center

of attention. Darryl ignored the stares directed his way and scanned the town with interest. He noticed that, even

though Black Water Town was not a big town, there were countless shops along the way, and the streets were

packed with people.

Once they reached the most bustling street, Lillian ordered the others to return to their hostel for some rest

while she headed to the black market to sell the inner cores and skin they had harvested from the Black Sand

Pythons which they had kept with care during their hunt. The Black Sand Pythons' skin is a one-of-a-kind item

that could be turned into luxurious leather goods that would be extremely valuable in the market.

Darryl's interest immediately peeked at the mention of a black market. ''I want to go too,'' he said with a smile.

''What for?'' Lillian turned to stare at him reluctantly.

''I need to sell the inner cores I have too, don't I? You can't keep all the good stuff to yourself,'' he said. Lillian

could not argue with his logic and allowed him to follow her with resignation.

They arrived at a private trading center a few minutes later, which was nothing but a glorified name for the black

market. The scale of the trading center was incredible, with the entire six-story building by itself, with an inscribed

board that read Yellow Sky

Trading above the entrance. ''Yellow Sky Trading?''

''What a unique name, '' Darryl muttered to himself.

''Seriously? Haven't you heard about Yellow Sky Trading before? Are you really from the Nine Mainland?'' Lillian

mocked.

''Why?'' Intrigued, Darryl went on to ask, ''Are they famous or something?''

Lillian smiled mockingly and began to explain. Over the past years, as the number of cultivators that

venture into the Wild Deserted Secret Region continued to increase, the establishrnent of black

markets, namely private trading centers, thrived at an incredible speed. Yellow Sky Trading was the

largest organization among them, with its branches widely spread across the Nine Mainlands, with

an enormous influence. However, the founder of Yellow Sky Trading had remained anonymous. No

one had heard or seen him

In person.

'Who could have imagined that a trading center could grow to such a scale?' Darryl pondered. ''By

the way, have you heard of

the Elysium Gate?'' It had been three years since he had returned, and he could not help but wonder

about the well-being of the Elysium Gate.

''Oh, the Elysiurn Gate.'' Lillian's eyes glittered with adrniration at the words, ''It's thernost powerful

sect on the Nine Mainlands. Their Sect Master Darryl Darby is my idol. It's a shame that he

hadgone rnissing. ''

Her words i1mnediately lifted Darryl's spirit
