Chapter 622: Chapter 622: Stronghold!
“Alright, let’s go to a nearby stronghold first and see if we can find out where the Beast Controlling Sect has gone. Whether you stay or go, we’ll decide that later,” White Mitchell proposed.
Lucy nodded her head in agreement. After all that happened previously, she now realised the trouble her Beast Controlling Sect status could cause once her brothers and sisters were not around.
After this incident, she wouldn’t easily reveal her identity to outsiders to avoid unnecessary troubles.
Meanwhile, after a quick tidy up, White Mitchell prepared to leave the cave.
It’s not that he didn’t want to continue following George’s notes to locate the next resource, but due to the strenuous journey of the past several days, they needed to rest.
At a half-day’s distance from here, there was a stronghold.
This stronghold was established by White Horse City’s men, serving as a rest spot for the powerhouses allied with White Horse City.
You could consider this as a form of welfare.
After all, every force allied with White Horse City had to give White Horse City 80% of the resources they found when they finally left Emperor Qing’s Relics.
If you don’t offer some sort of benefit, those powers could easily side with others and enter Emperor Qing’s Relics via different entrances.
However, that being said, once they reach that stronghold, they should be temporarily protected by White Horse City.
Having said that, the stronghold was not only occupied by the people from White Horse City. Quite a few powers equivalent to White Horse City also considered it their stronghold.
In the event of a dispute, small ones can be ignored. But for the bigger ones, White Horse City wouldn’t bother to interfere.
As for what happens next, it’s survival of the fittest.
However, White Mitchell did not worry much. The purpose of this trip to the stronghold was to rest. As long as no trouble arose, they would not cause any. Of course, if others provoked them, it would be a different matter.
After making arrangements, White Mitchell took God of Heaven War and the others and headed directly towards the stronghold.
After half a day of travel, smokes from the chimneys appeared in their sight.
“We’ve arrived, everyone pay attention.” White Mitchell instructed.
However, the admonition was mostly intended for Lucy, reminding her not to reveal her identity as a disciple of Beast Controlling Sect.
Lucy fully understood this and obediently nodded.
Not only that, but she had also changed into a plain set of clothes in a secluded area before coming, to avoid drawing attention.
However, even if it’s plain, it was still clothes from the Beast Controlling Sect.
Even if it’s plain, compared to the clothes worn by White Mitchell and his crew, her clothes seemed a bit luxurious.
But at this point, they didn’t care about those things. The most important thing was to rest.
In a short while, they approached the stronghold.
Calling it a stronghold, actually, it is a temporary refuge.
It was evident that this was once a little village called Kim Village.

Although White Mitchell couldn’t comprehend why Master Emperor Qing would place such an ordinary small village in his mystical space, he still chose to proceed.
At the entrance of the village, there were several figures dressed differently standing guard.
Clearly, they were assigned by various forces to this stronghold.
Shortly, White Mitchell found the man from White Horse City and took out the token White Horse City had given him on the day.
The man gave it a glance, had no doubts, and let Mitchell and his party enter.
