Hearing his question, Long Mingxi replied with a smile, "Naturally, it was fear of big powers, though the Black Plains City is not governed by the empire, it does not mean they do not fear the empire or sects. If the city becomes too chaotic, someone might take action, destroying the entire city."
"Oh!" Feng Yun had sudden enlightenment. She was correct, no matter how powerful this city might be, it can't compare with the empire's strength.
"Well it is peaceful on the surface, many shady things happen in the dark, and the murders are not uncommon. If you are not careful, you might not live the next day." Long Mingxi added.
"The situation is going to become more dangerous due to the opening of the secret realm. Not only rogue cultivators, the youngsters of some strong powers will come to the Black Plains City to join the secret realm. So, I would suggest you not move around too much, you can live in this mansion, it is completely safe here." Long Mingxi warned him.
