C768 Limitless City

Limitless City!

Just like Golden Scale City, this is the largest and most central city in the Limitless Domain, backed by the Limitless Sect, standing above all. However, compared to Golden Scale City, Limitless City is even larger and more bustling. While Golden Scale City is tucked away in a corner of the Golden Scale Domain, Limitless City, due to its central location, has become the heart of the Limitless Domain. It connects in all directions, and the outer city alone is divided into sixteen districts based on location.

Woo Zhengyang and Bing Yue first entered a district called Tianxin.

"Miss, is this your first time in Limitless City? Without a guide, it's easy to get lost in such a vast place. I may not be much, but I'd be honored to show you around," said a young man in a purple silk robe, holding a folding fan, as he approached them.

"No need, I'm here with my husband!" Bing Yue replied coolly. When she glanced at Woo Zhengyang, a mischievous glint appeared in her eyes. She believed that by saying this, Woo Zhengyang would surely agree, and perhaps in the future, they could avoid unnecessary trouble by posing as a couple.

"Husband? Surely you're joking!" the man in the silk robe questioned.

"What? You don't believe me? Do you think I'd joke about my own reputation?" Bing Yue retorted angrily. She had expected Woo Zhengyang not to contradict her, but she hadn't anticipated that this guy would doubt her and seem intent on continuing the conversation.

"Of course not! I may not have many skills, but I can see and have experience. It's obvious she's still pure. How could she possibly have a husband?" The man in the embroidered robe had a teasing and smug look in his eyes as he spoke.

"You..." Bing Yue was fuming. Though she was bold and even flirtatious with Woo Zhengyang, she maintained a cool and aloof image in front of others. Being mocked like this was infuriating.

The man in the robe glanced at Woo Zhengyang and continued, "Besides, she's clearly at a much higher level, and this guy is just starting out. How could he possibly match up to her? If you ask me, he's probably her little brother or student. If you're looking for a cover, you should find someone more suitable!"

"What nonsense! You..." Bing Yue was about to explode, but when she saw Woo Zhengyang standing there with a hint of a smile, she quickly calmed down. She wrapped her arm around Woo Zhengyang's and said with a radiant smile, "Honey, aren't you going to do something about this guy bothering your wife?"

"Why bother with someone like that?"

Woo Zhengyang had been watching from the start, curious to see how Bing Yue would handle it. He didn't expect her to throw the problem back to him. His solution was simple: just ignore it. Why make things complicated?

"Hey, kid, watch your mouth! What do you mean by 'people like that' and 'why bother with him'? Before coming to Limitless City, didn't you think to ask around about who I am?" The man in the fancy robe was clearly displeased by Woo Zhengyang's words, his face darkening as he spoke.

Woo Zhengyang, however, couldn't be bothered to engage with him and simply walked away with Bing Yue.

But the young man in the fancy robe wasn't about to let them off so easily. He stepped in front of them, blocking their path.

"Well, well... you've got some guts, I'll give you that. But around here, guts are just dog food," the man sneered, gesturing with his hand. Suddenly, two elderly men in black robes appeared behind him.

Woo Zhengyang and Bing Yue both tensed up. These two elders were clearly at the Martial King Stage!

They had assumed this fancy-robed man was just some spoiled rich kid trying to flirt with Bing Yue, but it turned out he was more formidable than they expected, casually summoning two Martial King-level henchmen.

Still, two Martial Kings were nothing to Woo Zhengyang.

Glancing at the man in the purple robe, Woo Zhengyang said, "What? You think you can start a fight in Limitless City?"

Just like Golden Scale City, a place as vast as the Limitless Domain had strict laws against fighting. Even disciples of the Limitless Sect wouldn't dare break them, let alone a minor noble's son.

"We certainly won't make a move inside Limitless City, but are you planning to stay here forever? Remember my name, Huo Dongcheng! We'll meet again!" The young man in the brocade robe finished with a sly smile at Bing Yue before turning to leave.

Woo Zhengyang and Bing Yue exchanged a glance, both looking helpless. They had visited many cities, and there were plenty who coveted Bing Yue's beauty, but such brazen flirting combined with threats was something they encountered for the first time.

"Huo Dongcheng? I get it now... He's actually a disciple of the Huo family!" Bing Yue suddenly said thoughtfully.

"The Huo family disciple?" Woo Zhengyang asked, puzzled. He had no idea who this so-called Huo family was.

"The Huo family, with Huo Tianxin, is one of the Grand Elders of the Limitless Sect. He stepped into the ranks of the Martial Sovereigns centuries ago, making a name for himself. He even served as the Sect Master of the Limitless Sect until he stepped down to pursue further advancement. The Tianxin District, one of the sixteen districts of Limitless City, is their territory, named after Huo Tianxin himself!"

"The Limitless Sect has Grand Elders?"

"Yes, and not just one—there are three!"

"Three Martial Sovereigns?"

"No, five. The Sect Master of the Limitless Sect and the Chief Elder are also at the Martial Sovereign level!"

"Five Sovereigns..."

Woo Zhengyang was finally a bit moved. All along, he thought the Limitless Domain was similar to the Golden Scale Domain, and the Limitless Sect should be similar to the Golden Scale Sect. The Golden Scale Sect had only two Martial Sovereigns. Woo Zhengyang didn't dare say he could take them head-on, but he hadn't paid them much mind either.

But now, it seems that the Limitless Sect is clearly much stronger than the Golden Scale Sect.

Bing Yue naturally understood what Woo Zhengyang was thinking and explained, "Our Golden Scale Domain is one of the most remote among the thirty-six domains. We're a bit behind in various aspects, including our sects and cultivators."

"That's precisely why the people from the Acacia Sect act so recklessly in the Limitless Domain. If it doesn't get too out of hand, the Golden Scale Sect usually doesn't intervene. Of course, the Acacia Sect doesn't have a great reputation in the Limitless Domain either, so the Limitless Sect probably won't stand up for them."

"As for Huo Dongcheng, he's just a minor playboy from the Huo family. He shouldn't cause too much trouble; we just need to be cautious," Bing Yue explained.

Woo Zhengyang shook his head, noncommittal.

"What?" Bing Yue asked, puzzled.

Woo Zhengyang chuckled, "Doesn't the name Huo Dongcheng sound familiar to you?"

"Familiar? You mean... Huo Dongsheng from the Acacia Sect..."
