The GPS announcement didn’t catch Yao Si’s attention, but it thoroughly frightened Zan Zichen. He had a look of disbelief when he glanced at her. “Thi-this, senior, your magical device produced a spirit!”
What is he saying?
“With such a magical device, we will definitely be able to escape this demonic realm!”
“But I would like to trouble with something.” Yao Si twisted her fingers in embarrassment.
“Senior, please speak your mind.”
“I don’t have any transportation equipment… Er, what I mean is, I don’t have a flying sword. So…” I’ll have to trouble you for that.
“I see!” He nodded nonchalantly. “No worries, I tend to cast equipment in my leisure time, so even though the level isn’t high, using a sword for transport is totally fine. Senior, if you don’t mind…” With a wave of his hand, a deafening clang erupted and a sword appeared by her feet. “I can lend it to you.”
“…”
He is… friendly indeed!
“I don’t know how to use it though.” He just had to force the truth out!
Zan Zichen stilled, the idea never once having crossed his mind. He sat in a daze for a long while. When he finally thought of something, he glanced at her with guilt in his eyes. “It’s all my fault!”
Senior must have been gravely injured, which prevents her from flying on the sword, but she still put on a strong front just to activate the map of Mountain He Luo to bring him out. To not have realized this was a mistake on my part!
He raised his hand to take back the sword, then silently summoned the sword he had used previously. He freed up two-thirds of the sword’s space. “Senior, please!” His gaze when he looked at Yao Si was filled with admiration, worship, and gratitude.
“…” Even though she wasn’t sure of his thoughts, a free chauffeur was great. Swiftly, she got onto the sword.
Buzz. [The navigation shall begin, please proceed forward. Turn right after 15 km to arrive at 28.12°N, 112.59°E.]
This time, without any further instructions, Zan Zichen headed forward.

This so called demonic realm was indeed vast. Yao Si had at first assumed, based on the speed of her previous sword travels, that she would be able to reach their destination in a few minutes. But she hadn’t expected that celestials had different levels.
Zan Zichen was a local of the Shadow Planet, and it was clear that his sword skills were of a lower level. If the one steered by Li Yue was a flying ship, then Zan Zichen’s one would be considered a bicycle.
They only managed to fly out of the ninth district after two whole hours. The moment they left, the darkness started to seep away, the scenery turning bright and sunny. It looked just like an image from a tourism site.
“We’re out, we’re really out!” Zan Zichen was so excited he almost jumped off the sword. Fortunately, he remembered in time that there was still a passenger on board. He stopped over a grass field, bowing politely at Yao Si once more. “Thank you, Senior Si, for leading me out of the demonic realm. I will never forget it.”
“Hahaha, it’s not that serious.” She patted his shoulder nonchalantly. “All I did was navigate, I still have to thank you for bringing me all the way.” Besides, the actual navigator was the GPS.
The man’s face was clouded with gratitude. “Senior, you’re indeed noble!”
Yao Si glanced at the area they just left, noticing how there seemed to be two extremes here—one place was drowned in darkness while the other bright and sunny. There wasn’t any middle ground between the two, with a clean line separating the regions. This was probably the reason behind the planet’s name – Shadow Planet.
