Divine Harem: My Sect of Heavenly Beauties

Chapter 18: Checking

Shen Yu looked at the disappearing silhouette of the black Stallion who had become his mount and then turned towards Ying Yue. He extended his hand and said.

"Let's go and register our sect."

Ying Yue happily placed her hand in his hand and said.

"But master, do you plan to go to the town like this?"

"What's wrong with this?"

"You are too handsome, Master. The whole town will fall for you if you go like this."

Ying Yue chuckled, admiring Shen Yu's appearance in her heart. She bit her tongue to control her thoughts instantly.

"Haha, your humor is good."

Shen Yu laughed, then nodded. Ying Yue was right, his appearance might cause some trouble if he directly went to the town with his current face.

Thinking of that, he clicked his fingers as a strange mist enveloped him for a few seconds. After the mist cleared up, Shen Yu stood in his place, the same as before.

However, there was a slight difference. Although he had the same face as before, somehow Ying Yue was finding it hard to call him handsome. He wasn't attractive in a way. She couldn't even explain the weird feeling she was feeling.

She tilted her head to the sides in confusion, wondering what technique Shen Yu had used to deceive her senses.

"Now, it's better. Nobody will find me that attractive or anything. Let's go."

Ying Yue nodded, shaking her thoughts. They then proceeded to go down the small hill, which was one of the main entrances to the Tando Woodlands. They encountered some Spiritual Creatures, but they were very weak due to being close to the town and away from the center of the Tando Woodlands.

They easily dealt with them and reached the Green Silk Town. They could already see the tall stone walls protecting the town from all four sides. The walls were tall and thick enough for people to stand on, and some people stood on top of them to watch for any invasion.

The Entrance Gate was closed, and nobody was in sight. It was natural since the outside world was filled with Spiritual Creatures, so even opening the Entrance gate was done after confirming various things. Nobody dared to watch over the Gate by standing outside of the safe walls. They could die any moment if a Spiritual Creature decided to attack. At least the walls would protect them if someone attacked.

Shen Yu and Ying Yue approached the tall metal gate, which was painted black and looked menacing. Its black surface was painted with blood strains, showing the gate's past.

There were some small doors in the two giant entrance gates, specially made to let people in and out. The duo approached the one to the farthest left and stopped.

Shen Yu knocked on the door and said.

"Hello, we would like to enter the town."

There was silence for a few moments before a voice sounded from the other side. The voice was filled with laziness and sleepiness.

"Hah! Someone at this hour, really?"

"We are travelers."

Shen Yu said, still completely calm. He smiled as he saw the door opening. With the metallic sound, the door was pulled open from the other side, and Shen Yu was able to look at the source of the voice.

It was a middle-aged man with a rough face and toned muscles. He wore a red guard uniform and held a sword in his hand.

"If you're a traveler, then does that mean you don't have an Identity Token?"

"Identity Token?"

"Yeah, it's nothing much. It's just to show that you aren't a Spiritual Creature who had taken the form of a human."

The guard then took out a small black rock shaped like the perfect cube and continued his talk.

"Just drop your blood on this stone, and you'll be given access to the town. You should first have someone make an identity card for you two."

Shen Yu nodded, impressed by the level of security. It was a good thing because there were some Spiritual Creatures who could take human form and even learn to live amongst them or take over the dead bodies of humans.

If they let such a creature inside, only a problem awaited them. The Spiritual Creatures had only one goal, and that was to destroy the humanity.

Although it was rare to see such a Spiritual Creature, nobody was taking risks. If they let such a Spiritual Creature slip under their radar, many lives would be lost, so it was a good system.

Shen Yu made a normal blood appear on his fingertips and dropped on the black stone. He didn't know if there had been any changes in his blood so he wasn't taking any risks.

Ying Yue plucked her finger with a needle and dropped her blood on the black stone. Then, they waited for more instructions from the guard.

The guard lingered for a while, looking deeply at the stone. When nothing happened, he sighed in relief and looked at the duo, Saying.

"You're good to go as long as you pay the entrance fee, which is 1 silver per person."

Shen Yu smiled and slid three silver coins into the guard's hand. He patted the man's shoulder and said.

"You're doing a good work, old man."

The guard looked at the three silver coins and chuckled. Seriously, so now he was being given tips? He would have accepted it happily if it was a large amount, but one extra silver wasn't really much, he said.

"Just remember to get the identity card, kiddos. It'll be helpful in many ways."

Shen Yu thanked the guard for the advice and entered the black door along with Ying Yue. The moment they stepped inside, the guard shut the door again.

Shen Yu shook his head and proceeded to exit the tall wall they were inside. They didn't have to walk for long, as after a few steps, they arrived inside the Green Silk Town.

Their destination of today.
