Chapter 277 - 277. Towards To Fairy Territory (2)
"I'm not hungry unless Uncle wants to eat. Then I just go with it," replied Fu Xie Lan.
"I was afraid you would get sick, kid."
"No need to think about it, Uncle. Trust me, I'll be fine," Fu Xie Lan replied.
"Are you sure?"
Hearing that, Fu Xie Lan immediately nodded.
"Okay then, shall we go now?"
"It's up to Uncle," Fu Xie Lan replied.
"Ehem, let's go," said the middle-aged man walking first.
Fu Xie Lan did not respond and just followed behind, while Hao, the little fluffy creature seemed to be curled up lazily on her shoulder.

Out of the inn, Master Liu and Fu Xie Lan walked towards the gate. The people around the door seemed to be less than before.
The sun slowly rose to follow its axis, seeing the gate that was already very close to her, Fu Xie Lan was stunned for a few seconds. The tree carvings on the side of the door look more alive when viewed during the day than at night.
The door was constantly open, unlike the door bordering the wizarding realm which only opened if someone was about to pass through.
Several people in similar uniforms were seen guarding there, while some others were busy checking people who wanted to enter the area where the Fairy race was located.
Most of the people wore green robes indicating that they were a race of fairies about to return to their territory, while others, very few wore different robes. Including Fu Xie Lan who was still wearing a mage robe.
"Uncle," called Fu Xie Lan suddenly before reaching the examination.
"Why, kid? Is there a problem?" Master Liu asked turning around.
"Is it okay if I still stick with this robe?" Fu Xie Lan asked a little doubtfully, the robe she was currently wearing was a witch robe.
Hearing Fu Xie Lan's words, the middle-aged man immediately turned around.
"It's okay, you can change it later when we get there," said Master Liu.
The middle-aged man was not surprised or in the least curious when he first saw Fu Xie Lan, who was a fairy half-human wearing a wizard robe.
Because, maybe it was one of Elder Huang Bao's ways to protect his disciple from another wizard, especially if someone knew that in the Fu Xie Lan's body was flowing human blood.
"I have some unused fairy robes, you can wear them later," said Master Liu again.
"Uncle?"
"Erm."
"But, I don't have wings, Uncle. And I can't fly," said Fu Xie Lan again letting out all her worries.
"In that case, it doesn't matter. Don't worry, I will protect you no matter what," Master Liu replied immediately.
"Okay, thanks again, Uncle."
"Ever since leaving the wizarding race, you've become my responsibility, kid, don't worry about anything," said Master Liu, slowly turning around.
"Come on," he said, then stepped and of course Fu Xie Lan followed.
Master Liu slightly slowed down to match Fu Xie Lan's position, so the two seemed to be walking hand in hand, approaching the gatekeeper.
"Wow, it's rare for Master Liu to appear this early," said a man who immediately greeted the middle-aged man.
"I have a little affair, Master Feng," Master Liu replied with a friendly smile.
"Looks like you're not alone this time, hehehe."
"As you can see," Master Liu replied.
"Nice to meet you," said Master Feng smiling at Fu Xie Lan was.
"This is the permit," said Master Liu, handing him a scroll again.
"And this is our permit jade," he added, handing Master Feng a white jade.
"Um okay," replied the man while nodding after seeing the contents of the scroll Teacher Liu gave him.
Who doesn't know Master Liu at that border gate? He passes every month and sometimes almost every week to the wizard territory through the Kanca city route makes him known by many guards.
While the scroll containing the permission, Master Liu took it when Fu Xie Lan was still asleep in the inn room. He wanted to take the permit immediately when they had just arrived at the Ocarina, however, seeing Fu Xie Lan who was already looking exhausted made him preferred to find an inn first for the girl to rest.
Master Liu took the permission at a special post provided, those who served there were the fairies and the people of the Master City. At first, Master Liu had a little trouble getting the permit, because no one could delegate the permission to take it.
Fortunately one of his acquaintances was on guard at the time, so Master Liu was able to obtain it easily.
Some of the Fairies already knew Master Liu, his kind and friendly figure, not only that, the middle-aged man was famous for often being one of the representatives of the fairy race to attend important events in the territory of other races.
And all these things make it easy for people to trust him. One of them was the post guard fairy who was also one of his acquaintances.
Those who needed permission were only people who belonged to one race and wanted to enter the territory of a different race.
Just like Fu Xie Lan, even though she was a fairy half-human, people who saw her wearing a blue robe would assume that she was a wizard. So she still needs permission to enter the fairy territory.
If only, Fu Xie Lan wore Fairy robes, then the girl would not need permission anymore.
Cloak of Wizard and fairy can only be obtained in their respective territories. The cloak could not be found or even forbidden to be traded in the area where it was not supposed to be. For example, fairy robes can only be found in the territory of the fairy race, not anywhere else. Not only that, someone who traded fairy robes in the territory of another race would be condemned and punished.
Not only the two races, because the rules also apply to other races.
The act of buying and selling robes in a restricted area might be considered an illegal act.
After handing over the white jade and the scroll containing the permission, Master Liu and Fu Xie Lan began to continue their walk.
"Master Liu, be careful on the road," said Master Feng, letting the middle-aged man leave.
"So are you, kid," he added with such a friendly smile.
"Thank you, Master Feng," replied Master Liu, turning his head for a moment then turning his attention back to the road in front of him.
Master Liu and Fu Xie Lan walked side by side, approaching the gate which was only a few steps away.
From where Fu Xie Lan was, she could slowly feel the scent of flowers mixed with the scent of the soil wet with dew, carried by the wind, and hit her face, giving off a refreshing sensation. And it came from there, fairy territory.
