Sunlight illuminated the plains, the cooling winds blow in all directions.

The sounds of horses and carriages were heard moving across the plains.

Looking more closely, we can see several carriages being pulled by horses. Some soldiers wearing steel armor were mounted on horses around the chariots, each of them with large swords. They were the bodyguards of the carriage.

The carriages were made of high-quality wood with various types of sculpted designs. This shows that the travelers inside the carriage were not ordinary people.

At the end of the caravan, there were three more people, two soldiers dressed in steel armor, and one of them was wearing cloth clothes, he had a white-fur wolf walking behind him, a hawk on his shoulders and a butterfly flying around him.

The person wearing the cloth clothes was Liu Yang.

After several weeks of walking on the plains, Liu Yang and his four companions met a group of noble travelers. They were going to a city called Wildwick City. This was a small town on the plains.

After asking for a little help in exchange for helping in the fight against wild beasts. In the beginning, they accepted Liu Yang as a member of them, but he had to hand his swords over to the guards, this was to prevent him from trying anything strange. Callie was in custody in one of the coaches.

But after seeing him fighting the creatures during the night, the carriage owners changed their mind and let Liu Yang and his group stay inside the carriages as guests. They can even hold their weapons again.

Liu Yang continued to travel with the horse, while Callie was inside the carriage. Liu Yang who asked her to do this. His goal was for Callie to get information about Wildwick City.

During the day, the few wild beasts they found were defeated by Liu Yang, he used only his hands and legs for that. During the night, the carriages stop and a barrier is created to protect travelers.

Liu Yang, Callie, the Midnight Wolf, the Peregrine Falcon, and the Black Butterfly were placed outside the barrier. The owners of the carriages do not trust Liu Yang and his group. That was no problem.

The scenes of Liu Yang killing the night beasts with his bare hands shocked everyone inside the barrier, they understood that he was strong enough to travel at night. But he had no horses to travel faster. The carriage owners were happy that they were not rude to Liu Yang and his group.

Callie didn't stay still, she conjured up her flaming golem and attacked too. The three creatures also did the same thing. None of them wanted to stand still and do nothing.

After several weeks of walking, the trio leveled many times. Especially Callie and the three beasts, as they were the weakest. They level faster than normal.

The other two beasts, which Liu Yang enslaved using the power of the Conqueror's Command, were nocturnal beasts defeated over the weeks.

Unlike removing the curse after capturing the leader as the first time, Liu Yang had to kill a thousand nocturnes beasts to lift the curse from the leader of the night beasts.

Liu Yang did this two times, over the weeks, as the other times the leaders of the nocturnal beasts did not come, only the lower class beasts.

The low-class beasts were of rank 3 and while those of rank 4 were the leaders. Three thousand rank 3 beasts being defeated was insane, except every night that Liu Yang was fighting.

The nights that rank 4 creatures did not appear, only a few hundred appear during the night. Multiplying about five hundred rank 3 night beasts for about two months, and taking out three days that were twice as many and the days that Liu Yang traveled with the group of carriages.

Liu Yang defeated more than thirty thousand nocturnal beasts during two months of walking on the plains. He and his companions had been traveling with the group of travelers for a few days.

The amount of level he received was absurd, as he was the one who defeated more than everyone else. Callie and the beasts defeat a small portion of the nocturnal creatures.

The current level of Liu Yang was 50, forty thousand rank 3 creatures was not a small number. Callie reached level 23, the Midnight Wolf reached rank 3 and almost reach to rank 4, the Peregrine Falcon was a rank 3, and the Black Butterfly remained at rank 2, and it was almost at rank 3.

Liu Yang was unable to level more because level 50 was the limit for that area. Otherwise, it would have leveled out much more. He does not know if the experience has been accumulated or not, as there are no system warnings.

While traveling with the carriage group, Liu Yang learned many new things.

In the Temore Kingdom and as in many other kingdoms, the population was divided into classes like commoners and nobles. The commoners were the common people while the nobles were the rich and influential.

However, in the hierarchy, there was a special class of people that cannot be called noble or commoner. They were called Travelers, that is, they were travelers from another world who appeared on the Xinia Continent.

Depending on their power and influence, they were also called commoners or nobles by the inhabitants of the continent. The title of the Traveler was just to identify whether the person was from another world or not.

Basic information about the Temore Kingdom such as culture, cities, influences, and many other things was learned by Liu Yang and Callie, the two of them seemed to be bumpkins who had never seen a big city before.

Liu Yang pretended to be a bumpkin so he wouldn't look like the other world traveler. Callie was a real one, so she didn't have to act like one.

The group had already been traveling for almost two months. The city's shadow can already be seen from the horizon, but it still took several more days to reach the city.

During the walk across the plains with Callie and the Midnight Wolf, Liu Yang returned to the initial village a few times. His appearance shocked everyone, but they realized that Liu Yang's words were true and that he really come back.

The only thing Liu Yang did after returning was to do activities with his women. They were already lonely and had to use their fingers. So he needed to do his job like their man. He also warned his women not to leave the initial village, as each would go to one of the nine kingdoms. Thus, none of them would be together.

Liu Yang asked them to train hard while he was gone. Besides, he will create his own influential group to help them when they reach the Xinia Continent.

Ten hours in a row doing activities was enough for the eight women. This is equivalent to half a day on the Xinia Continent. For one day it was only twenty hours.

Whenever Liu Yang returned, the Midnight Wolf bites Liu Yang's leg because of this, she smells the female hormone on his body. He could only laugh at this situation.

Callie didn't understand much about the affairs of men and women, so she didn't notice that smell. She just thought that Liu Yang had to visit somewhere.

The carriages have already left the grasses of the plains and were traveling on a dirt road.

The trip was smooth and no problem, but not for long.

Pah !!!! Pah !!!!

"Watch out!!"

"Slower!!!!"

The coachman tried to keep the horses from running too far. They were suddenly scared.

"Auuuuu !!!!" The Midnight Wolf howled loudly. She detected some strange smells around them.

"Everyone get ready for the fight !!!" The leader of the guards shouted. He heard the howl and acted immediately.

The Midnight Wolf always howled when enemies were nearby. If she did, it shows that there were enemies nearby.

The carriage continued to move, but slowly.

The guards have alighted from their horses and pulled out their swords. They each had solemn looks on their faces.

Liu Yang continued with his casual look, he didn't know who the other side was. But he didn't think an initial city would have anyone strong enough to fight it.

The information he learned from the nobles was that the level of the inhabitants of Wildwick City was 20-30. It was very rare for someone level 40 or above to show up. Let alone someone at level 50.

Callie was in one of the carriages with a noble young lady. Liu Yang preferred left Callie with a woman than a man.

"Miss Rachil, you don't have to worry about that. The young master will deal with unwanted guests. "Callie tried to calm a young woman beside her. Her appearance was beautiful with expensive makeup and noble clothes.

"Maid Callie, I have confidence in Mr. River, but we are already close to the city. I fear that many enemies will appear, humans are much scarier than nocturnal beasts. " The young woman named Rachil was shaking with fear. She has been ambushed before, but she was still afraid to die.

"Miss Rachil, try to calm down. The young master is here with us with the others. They will protect you. "Callie tried her best to calm Rachil, but it was difficult.

"Auuuuuuu !!!!" The Midnight Wolf howled again, but this time it was louder. This signaled that the enemies are close.
