Early in the morning, An Lin woke up. The sun shone through the paper window onto his face, bringing with it a hint of warmth.
There was a little red flower in a flower pot on the windowsill. She was Xiao Hong.
Even though An Lin had not forgotten to let her bask in the sun and undergo photosynthesis these past few days, there was still no sign of her awakening.
He put Xiao Hong away in his pocket and gathered Dabai and Xiao Chou together before bidding farewell to Xuanyuan Cheng.
Before leaving, Tang Shiyuan gave An Lin a white jade pendant for self-protection, saying that it was to repay him for saving her life on the Heavenly Dawn Peak.
An Lin didn't think too much about it and accepted it.
Tang Shiyuan was a woman in a white dress who was as ethereal as clouds and mist. She stood quietly on the mountain peak as she looked on at the departing An Lin on his dog. The wind swept her hair about as she gripped tightly onto the other jade pendant in her hand.
…
…
The Purple Star State was located to the east of the Stone Dragon State and was the only state in the Kingdom of the Nine States that did not restrict the development of science and technology.
The Green Wood Imperial Family of the Four Sects and Nine Emperors was the model leader in the integration of cultivation and science and technology.
The Green Wood Imperial Family had reached some kind of agreement with the Celestial Court, so the Celestial Court did not interfere with their research in this field. Instead, they provided them with a certain amount of funding.
The Purple Star State and the Stone Dragon State were neighbors, so An Lin did not use the teleportation spell formation. Instead, he flew on his dog.
After entering the territory of the Purple Star State, he immediately sensed something different.
The buildings here were no longer simple brick and tile structures. Instead, they were all made of concrete. He even saw trains. Even though they were steam trains, it was still quite astonishing.
The roads on the ground were very well planned, and there were all types of strange vehicles on them. There were four-wheeled vehicles that looked like cars, as well as streamlined flying machines that hovered in the air.
He even saw massive airships flying in the sky. They didn't fly very quickly, but they could carry at least a thousand people.
The technological level of the Purple Star State was most likely at the time of the first industrial revolution, but there were many things that had never been seen on Earth. This was a combination of futuristic and retro elements, and An Lin couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
As they flew towards the Green Wood Imperial Palace, they saw countless strange things. In the end, An Lin was a little worried that the palace they would arrive at would be a skyscraper.
Finally, they arrived at their destination.
He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart because the style of the Green Wood Imperial Palace was not much different from the style in his heart.
The splendid and magnificent palaces formed a huge and magnificent group of palaces. The golden glazed roofs emitted a noble and dignified glow under the sunlight.
The gates of the palace were guarded by dozens of armored soldiers with powerful auras.
After An Lin reported his intentions, one of the generals guarding the gate immediately began to contact the person in charge of the palace.
"Alright, I'll bring the guest in. What … Her Royal Highness is coming in person? Alright, alright … "
The general hung up the transmission talisman and turned to An Lin with an extremely respectful expression. "Princess Yun Le is already on her way here. Please wait patiently."
An Lin nodded and stretched lazily on Dabai's back.
Soon, he heard the rumbling of footsteps.
"Classmate An Lin ~" A soft and mellow voice sounded from afar.
An Lin raised his head and saw Su Qianyun running toward him on the back of a huge blue wolf that was over twenty feet tall.
She wore a red palace robe, and there was a wide smile on her delicate face as she waved at An Lin.
"Hi! Su Qianyun. "An Lin smiled and greeted her as well.
"I didn't think that you would come to play with me, An Lin. This is such a pleasant surprise."
Su Qianyun was clearly very happy as she revealed an extremely sweet smile. An Lin couldn't take his eyes off her.
"Oh right, this Sky Lake Wolf is called Xiao Man, it's my pet beast," Su Qianyun introduced as she led An Lin into the palace on her huge blue wolf.
The Sky Lake Wolf was several times larger than Dabai. It looked mighty and majestic, and its aura was extremely vast. It was most likely already at the level of a Soul Formation Stage soul beast.
An Lin also extended a warm greeting toward the Heavenly Lake Wolf.
Then, he looked at the Sky Lake Wolf, then at his own Dabai, and fell into deep thought.
Both of them were riding on their pet beasts, but he felt an indescribable sense of awkwardness.
If he had to describe it, he felt that Su Qianyun was driving a Ferrari while he was driving a Chery QQ. The difference in style was like heaven and earth.
Due to the difference in height between the two pet beasts, he had to raise his head to talk to Su Qianyun.
It wasn't like Su Qianyun was wearing a short skirt, so he didn't feel happy talking with his head raised. Instead, his neck felt tired.
With this in mind, he stroked Dabai's head expectantly and asked softly, "Dabai, can you become as big as Xiao Man?"
Dabai rolled his eyes and answered concisely, "I can't. I'm only this big anyway. Ride me if you want."
An Lin heaved a disappointed sigh upon hearing this.
Seeing An Lin's expression, Su Qianyun immediately came back to her senses. She secretly scolded herself for not taking care of An Lin's feelings. Then, she patted Xiao Man's head.
The Sky Lake Wolf understood. With a flash of blue light, it began to grow to the same size as Dabai.
Just like that, Su Qianyun and An Lin began to walk side by side.
Seeing this, An Lin couldn't help but be stunned. Then, he patted Dabai's head and said enviously, "Look at Xiao Man. She can grow and shrink at will. She's so agile."
Dabai's fur stood up and he sneered. "I can grow and shrink at will too, woof! I'll show you now! "
"Really?!" An Lin's eyes lit up and he began to feel excited.
With a flash of white light, An Lin fell to the ground with a plop.
In front of him, a mini version of Dabai appeared. It was Dabai's size before he formed his Gold Core.
"Look, I can grow and shrink at will too. Do you like it? Woof! "Dabai sneered.
An Lin crawled up from the ground. Hearing this, his chest tightened and he immediately begged, "Dabai, stop it. I don't want you to grow. Turn back to your original majestic appearance."
"Now you know how to suck up to me? It's too late, woof! "Saying this, Dabai maintained his mini size and walked forward with his head high and chest out.
An Lin: "…"
Humans always learned to cherish things when they lost them.
Now, even Chery QQ was gone. He could only walk.
Su Qianyun found that poor An Lin could only walk. She thought for a moment and then patted Xiao Man's head.
Xiao Man understood and turned into a small wolf the same size as Dabai.
Hmm … looking at it this way, they looked like two puppies walking side by side.
Su Qianyun also walked to An Lin's side with a slight smile.
An Lin was touched. How gentle and considerate Classmate Su was …
Looks like my Mandarin and English weren't taught in vain!
An Lin was so touched that he said to Su Qianyun in Mandarin, "Classmate Su, you look so beautiful when you smile."
Su Qianyun's dreamy blue eyes blinked.
Then, she stared blankly at An Lin and asked softly, "What did you just say?"
An Lin: "…"
Fine … looks like my Mandarin and English were taught in vain.
