Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022: The Divine Patterns Emerge, Cursed City (Second Release) Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022: The Divine Patterns Emerge, Cursed City (Second Release) Xue An?

Zhuo Yangyang was taken aback.

Had she ever heard of a runemaster’s descendant or Rune Family with the surname Xue?

Could it be some ancient heritage that remains unseen in the modern world?

At this thought, respect crept further into Zhuo Yangyang’s demeanor.

“Sir, are you going to the Cursed City because of the divine runes that are about to emerge?”

“Divine runes?” Xue An looked up at Zhuo Yangyang, “What divine runes?”

“Hm? You don’t know?” Zhuo Yangyang was somewhat surprised.

“Know what?” Xue An took a sip of wine, then wiped his mouth with a pristine napkin, and spoke indifferently.

“Recently, there’s been mad talk all over the heavens that both the Cursed City and the Sea of Divine Wrath were places where Ancient Gods fell ten thousand years ago. After eons, it is said that divine runes containing the essence of an Ancient God’s blood are about to reappear in the world. Because of this, powerhouses from everywhere in the heavens are already rushing to the Cursed City.”

“A land where Ancient Gods have fallen?” Xue An paused for a moment at her words. He then turned his gaze to the endless black ocean outside the window, a scarcely discernible gleam flickered in his eyes, followed by a casual smile.

“I actually didn’t know this, but since I am here, I might as well join the excitement!”

The ship was very spacious, so the living conditions were quite good.

And to accommodate Xue An, Captain Meng Lei had vacated his own cabin and personally escorted Xue An into the quarters before he left.

Outside, Zhuo Yangyang was standing on the deck, waiting for him.

“Is everything arranged?” Zhuo Yangyang asked.

Meng Lei nodded, “Rest assured, miss, everything is set up properly, and Mister Xue has already retired to rest!”

Zhuo Yangyang nodded, then turned to look towards the dark sea route in silence.

Seeing this, Meng Lei hesitated to speak, ultimately letting out a sigh, “Miss, what are you looking at?”

Zhuo Yangyang shook her head, a look of bewilderment in her eyes, “Nothing, I just feel like my fate is as uncertain and tumultuous as this sea shrouded in darkness, without any predictability!”

Meng Lei fell silent. After a while, he spoke softly, “Miss, this trade expedition has flourished under your leadership, isn’t that enough?”

Zhuo Yangyang shook her head, “I don’t know, I’m still afraid…”

At this point, a trace of fear flickered in Zhuo Yangyang’s eyes.

Anger showed on Meng Lei’s face as he said in a low voice, “These people are too much, even though you are not from the Legitimate Branch of the Zhuo Family, they shouldn’t be driving you to a dead end like this!”

Zhuo Yangyang gave a woeful smile, “But sometimes… bloodline and status mean everything! No matter how hard I try, in their eyes, I am just a pawn to be sacrificed for their gain!”

Meng Lei wanted to say something, but in the end, he could only sigh deeply, knowing that what Zhuo Yangyang said was the harsh truth.

“What do you think of this Mister Xue?” Meng Lei suddenly asked.

Zhuo Yangyang shook her head, “I can’t get a read on him. How about you, Uncle Meng?”

“I can’t either, but there’s one thing I’m certain of!” said Meng Lei gravely.

“What’s that?”

“I’ve sailed these seas for over a hundred years and have encountered countless individuals–brutal tyrants, dignitaries, I’ve even met True God level powerhouses! But whether I faced any of them, I could do so with ease! The only exception is… when I am in front of Mister Xue.”

Mentioning this, a trace of fear flashed across Meng Lei’s face, “I felt a chill deep in my heart, especially when his gaze fell upon me, as if he had dissected my body and soul completely! If possible, I would avoid such a person at all costs.”

Zhuo Yangyang listened quietly, a good habit cultivated from over a decade of trading, which was to learn to listen.

Especially the words of those who had experienced the vicissitudes of life and had abundant practical experience, she paid extra attention to.

“So Uncle Meng means…” Zhuo Yangyang asked softly.

Meng Lei took a deep breath, “Miss, since the other party is aggressive, it would be better for you to take a risk, and I think, this Lord Xue, could very well be the key to solving your current predicament!”

Zhuo Yangyang’s expression changed uncertainly, her gaze drifting toward the distant cabin.

In a soft murmur, Zhuo Yangyang said, “I understand, I will think it over carefully!”

Meng Lei nodded and then left without a sound.

Surrounding silence reigned, with only the sound of sea water being split by the giant ship audible, Zhuo Yangyang stood silently for a long time, her purple dress like a blooming Xiao Hua in the darkness, stubbornly flourishing.

The journey that followed was exceedingly peaceful.

Not to mention Demigod-level sea creatures, even Pseudo-Divine Level sea demons failed to show up.

It was as if the appearance of Xue An had scared away the behemoths of the entire ocean.

Under such calm conditions, the giant ship rode the wind and waves, speeding along for three days, finally leaving the Sea of Divine Wrath shrouded in perpetual gloom.

The ocean still stretched to the horizon, but the environment here was much better, and ships could be seen sailing along the route from time to time.

Moreover, these ships would always actively give way when passing the giant ship, showing great respect.

After sailing ahead for another half-day, it seemed that suddenly before them, an immense city loomed into view.

This city at first glance appeared to be built upon an island.

But upon closer inspection, it became evident that the city was moving at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Xue An stood at the bow, looking with interest.

Zhuo Yangyang slowly approached him and said softly, “Sir, that ahead is the Cursed City!”

“This Cursed City is actually built on the sea?” Xue An raised his eyebrows slightly.

Zhuo Yangyang nodded, then exclaimed, “When I first saw this city, I was shocked for quite some time. Such a vast city, built on the carapace of an ancient sea monster that had long since died–it shows just how huge the creature must have been. This… must surely be a miracle!”

However, Xue An merely smiled faintly in response and did not speak.

As the giant ship slowly entered the harbor, the bustling port was swept up in excitement.

A variety of goods carried by the giant ship were being methodically unloaded.

Meanwhile, Zhuo Yangyang led Xue An onto the city itself.

“Miss Zhuo!”

“Miss Yangyang!”

The sailors along the way all greeted Zhuo Yangyang very respectfully; it was evident that their respect came from the heart.

Zhuo Yangyang kept nodding with a smile.

“Miss Zhuo’s trading expedition this time must be quite profitable; she should receive a good reward, no?” whispered one of the sailors.

“Psh, that’s not certain. Miss Zhuo has been through thick and thin over the years, making great contributions to the Zhuo Family, but who among you has ever seen the Zhuo Family show any concern for Miss Zhuo?” another said with a scoff.
