Chapter 877: Holyland Part 1

At the end of the day, Kana did as she said and stuck up a barrier around the mountain range, claiming it as her own territory. The divine beasts left the area after telling Kana things were cleared out. Only then did Kana leave with the old goat and Little An to head to the Holyland.

They flew across the land on Kana"s flying boat. Kana sat in her usual spot while Little An reluctantly sat next to her. The old goat asked Little An to get to know Kana a little more. This, of course, caused Little An to want to cry. But as she sat talking with Kana, she realized one thing. And that was that she had seriously overthought everything. While she was still scared of Kana due to her power, as a person, she found Kana easy to talk to. Kana did not come across as a difficult person to talk to at all. In fact, she was overly friendly.

"So then I said give me more meat! And you know what? I got more meat!" Kana was talking about some story about the time she first and last time she drank. "But you know what. After I went to bed, I woke up lying on the stone bench….."

Little An was unsure of how to react to Kana"s stories. She could only nod her head and smile. Mainly because Kana was talking about strange things she had no idea about. She would say something, but seconds later, Little An would forget it and not know what was even being said.

The two chatted for almost two days or more like Kana talked while Little An listened. Only when the Holyland came into view did Kana turn her attention to the floating island in the sky that had tall buildings towering above it, with a single large white tower rising even higher than the clouds themselves.

"Oh, so this is the Holyland?" Kana asked.

"Yes, it is the place with the densest spiritual qi in all of this lower plane. While one can come here any time they so wished, they could only stay for a short time. To live here, you need to prove your worth and be sponsored. That is why there is a giant city below the island." Little An explained while pointing below them. "The city under the Holyland is called Holy Gate City. Although the spiritual qi is not as abundant as it is in the Holyland, it is still quite high. "

"I see. And since they can spend a few days in the Holyland, they can come and go every so often to take advantage of the extra spiritual qi. Not bad, I guess." Kana could understand why the Holyland would restrict people from moving there permanently. Due to the limited s.p.a.ce with the tall buildings, it seemed like it was already becoming overpopulated.

The flying boat slowed to a stop at the city gates, where all the boats trying to enter the city had to stop to check in. There were three cultivators of the golden core stage standing guard, but when they saw the old goat, they were about to let the boat in until they saw Kana. "You Holiness, this is?"

"Someone greater than me, now move out of the way." The old goat replied with a monotone voice. He was secretly sweating, wanting to call the people in front of him an idiot for even stopping them. What happens if they anger this dragon G.o.ddess!? The three guards looked at one another and nodded before stepping out of the way. Since one of the holy elders had stated as such, they could not do anything about it.

The flying boat flew up to the tall tower, where the three jumped off a small platform that led to a large garden. There was a pavilion in the center of the garden where more old goats sat. They all looked over at the three people coming, and all narrowed their eyes when they saw an unfamiliar figure. "This is?"

"This is Kana. She is the one in question. I suggest you show the proper respect." The old goat replied to the oldest old goat. When the oldest of the group heard that, he narrowed his eyes even more and looked at the young woman before him. But when he turned and looked at the old goat"s eyes, he understood one thing. The divine beast in front of him is not someone to look down on.

"Hmmm… I thought you were all fighting a divine beast? Why was I allowed into the city so easily?" Kana suddenly broke the silence with her question.

"Because you are with me." The old goat answered. "This is also why I am having Little An show you around. While she might not go out much, everyone knows she is my disciple. So you can freely roam the city without issues."

"I see. So you really thought this out!" Kana nodded as she continued: "Thanks. I just want to find some souvenirs then I will be leaving. I still have to go back and check on my family."

"No problem at all. It is our pleasure to a.s.sist Your Excellency " The old goat bowed before turning to Little An and saying: "Take her Excellency to my quarters and allow her to rest in the guest room. If she needs anything…."

"I understand, Master. Kana, let"s go inside. I will show you where you can stay while you are here." Little An grabbed Kana"s hand and brought her along with her leaving the old goats all alone. The two had grown quite close in the past two days.

"What is the meaning of bringing such a powerful divine beast here?"

"Don"t even think of starting anything with her! She is not a normal divine beast. She is not even of this realm! She has the power of the G.o.ds and the power to destroy us all if she so wishes. So do not question my decision!"

"Alright, relax! That girl has powers that you all can not detect. I can say this for sure that he is not lying, that little girl is more powerful than all of us combined."
