The Middle Realm (2)

The Battle of Deities Grand Meet was to be held at the summit of Mount Fu Yao. The wheels on the horse carriages turned and rumbled the entire way, and when they came to the foot of the mountain, the carriages had to stop there, where its passengers would then have to walk up on foot.

Jun Wu Xie followed the small group of youths and stopped at the foot of the mountain with them, everyone of them carrying bundles of luggage big and small upon their bodies, looking highly conspicuous. It was obvious that these youths here had come from faraway tiny little villages. Their clothes were simple and plain and while they had not seemed out of place before, now that they were here at the foot of Mount Fu Yao, looking at all the other people in the crowd who were of rather similar ages lavishly dressed in smooth silk and fine satin, this group of children suddenly felt a little ill at ease, standing out quite a bit differently.
