After the three sword nuns left, Yun Zhonghe stared at Wu Feng.
After a long while, Yun Zhonghe said solemnly, "Martial Uncle, I want to go too!"
"Your cultivation is still shallow. You'll only embarrass our Remote Mountain Sword Sect if you go. I'll ask Haoye later and see if he's willing to go," said Wu Feng.
"Martial Uncle, I must go. If you don't let me experience other sects, how can I improve? You're the one who said that stagnant cultivation will only regress," said Yun Zhonghe firmly.
"Then ask your Martial Uncle. Whether or not we can make it happen this time depends on the Zhu Sect. Didn't you notice that Wen Mengru was only interested when Zhu Minglang said that he wanted to study at Mount Ning Sword Sect?" said Wu Feng.
"Little Uncle-Master …" Yun Zhonghe said pitifully as he walked over. He was no longer as arrogant and haughty as he was in Mechanical City.
"Since you gave me a dragon bile, I'll take you along," said Zhu Minglang.
"Thank you, Martial Uncle! Thank you!" Yun Zhonghe hurriedly said.
"Senior Brother, where are you going?" asked Zhu Minglang.
"I'm also packing. There are so many beauties in Mount Ning Sword Sect. I … Cough, cough. There are so many experts in Mount Ning Sword Sect. I'm almost forty years old. I want to experience the sword techniques of the experts of Mount Ning Sword Sect," said Wu Feng.
Although the visit this time was official, it went smoother than expected.
It seemed that Mount Ning Sword Sect had wanted to learn from the Remote Mountain Sword Sect for a long time. However, due to Mount Ning Sword Sect's system of female supremacy, they definitely wouldn't take the initiative to ask.
If they went with the flow, they wouldn't have to fight their way up like last time.
…
Soon, Mount Ning Sword Sect gave a reply.
They would return to Zong Lin in a few days. At that time, the people from Mount Ning Sword Sect could travel with them.
Zhu Minglang didn't plan on staying in the imperial capital for too long. Moreover, Li Yunzi's condition was quite serious. If he could get the Ancient Divine Lamp Jade as soon as possible, it would be better to avoid her death one day.
Zhu Minglang had Fang Niannian purchase some supplies from the Imperial Capital, then bid farewell to the few people from the Zhu Clan and prepared to depart.
The country where Xiao Mountain was located was in the west of the entire Polar Court Continent, which was completely opposite to the Li Chuan Continent. It was very far away, and even with the dragons taking turns, it would still take nearly a month to get there.
The night before the departure.
Zhu Minglang was considering the way to travel.
Flying directly in the air was windy and cold, which wasn't good for Li Yunzi's body. Moreover, there were lofty mountains and lofty ridges, mountain fog, and low clouds along the way. Flying the entire way was a very foolish thing to do. It was very easy to barge into some of the misty regions in the sky and waste a lot of time there. There was also the possibility of going in the wrong direction completely.
Even though traveling on land would be much slower, as long as they followed the roads of countries and cities, they wouldn't get lost. Moreover, there were Dragon Beasts and carriages on land, so they wouldn't get too tired from the bumpy ride. For those who were injured, it would be much better.
The autumn night was very cold. Zhu Minglang saw that there was a light on the small building.
He walked up the stairs and saw a woman under the light. She was carefully changing the soil on a pot of dying orchids.
"Yunzi, you're awake?" Zhu Minglang said happily.
She had been unconscious for almost two days. Zhu Minglang was really worried that she wouldn't wake up again. Every time he saw her pale face, he felt uneasy.
Today, she had finally woken up.
The woman looked at Zhu Minglang. Her charming eyes revealed some nervousness and uneasiness.
She sat up a little straighter, but she almost knocked over the pot of orchids. Zhu Minglang's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. He held the pot of orchids and prevented all the soil from spilling out.
Zhu Minglang saw that Li Yunzi didn't speak and was a little puzzled.
But soon, Zhu Minglang realized something. His gaze was fixed on the weak and timid woman who had her head slightly lowered.
Why was she avoiding his gaze?
Li Yunzi would never …
"Are you Miss Xing Hua?" Although Zhu Minglang didn't want to believe it, he had to ask this question when he saw that this woman's aura was completely different from Li Yunzi's.
"Yes." The woman nodded. She fixed the pot of orchids and slowly raised her gaze to look at Zhu Minglang.
Her eyes were deep and misty. Although they were also beautiful, Zhu Minglang felt like he was being seen through.
Her eyes seemed to be able to see through his appearance and see into his inner world. It was as if she could see through some of his thoughts with just a glance.
She avoided his gaze just now because she didn't want to see through his inner thoughts.
He didn't know why.
Previously, when Nan Lingsha mentioned the prophet, Zhu Minglang thought of those old fortune-tellers on the streets.
But when he looked into her eyes, Zhu Minglang began to believe the prophet's words.
"We're leaving the Imperial City tomorrow. I originally prepared some dragon carriages for Yunzi …" said Zhu Minglang.
"She won't wake up for the time being. But you don't have to worry too much. She just needs to rest," said the woman softly.
"That's good. Miss, you also look very weak. You should rest early. It's late, I won't disturb you any longer," said Zhu Minglang as he bowed.
"In the future, I might be the only one awake," said the woman softly.
"Oh, yes, okay." Zhu Minglang didn't know how to reply for a moment.
"We're leaving tomorrow. Can we leave the Imperial City from the north?" asked Li Xinghua.
"Yes." Zhu Minglang nodded.
… …
Zhu Minglang couldn't sleep for the entire night.
Intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at the small building next to him. He discovered that there were still lights in the small building.
He fell asleep in a daze. The next day, he was woken up by Fang Niannian and Mr. Koi's argument in the courtyard. Zhu Minglang subconsciously looked toward the small building. He saw that the window of the small building was already open.
The morning light shone on the window sill. A beautiful orchid was slowly blooming its full petals. It was full of vitality and vitality.
She lit the lantern until late at night just to save this little orchid?
But she was leaving this place today.
Zhu Minglang's small courtyard didn't have many servant girls. The bonsai plants and landscaping would wither not long after they were moved in. Then, they would be thrown away and replaced.
Very few people would care for them.
Zhu Minglang washed up and dressed neatly. Then, he walked into the courtyard.
Two beautiful women with beautiful figures and amazing curves were standing under the shade of the grass outside the courtyard. They were talking in a gentle and refined manner. Their soft voices were very pleasing to the ears.
Zhu Minglang walked forward. For a moment, he couldn't tell who was who. He could only put on a smile and greet them together.
Zhu Minglang had deliberately observed their complexions.
He wanted to determine who was Beauty Li and who was South American from their complexions. However, it seemed that Li Xinghua's soul wasn't damaged. Her waking up also made this body glow with a healthier vitality. Her complexion was much better than when she was unconscious.
If Zhu Minglang didn't know that the two of them were not the same person, he would have thought that Li Yunzi had recovered.
Moreover, Fang Niannian's deduction seemed to be correct.
Li Xinghua's relationship with her younger sister was much better. It could be seen from the way they stood there and spoke intimately.
"Zhu Minglang, don't do anything overboard. This is Sister Xinghua. There's nothing between you and her!" Nan Yusuo specially reminded him.
"Yusuo, don't be rude," Li Xinghua frowned slightly.
"It's fine. We're going to be a family in the future. There's no need to be so reserved. You can say whatever you want," Zhu Minglang smiled. He didn't mind Nan Yusuo's purposely making things difficult for him.
His sister-in-law had always been so naughty.
"Mr. Zhu, I just mentioned the Ancestral Dragon Ruins to Yusuo. There should be an ancient lamp jade in the ruins. Besides, you're both dragon herders. There are many spiritual wells in the ruins that are beneficial to your cultivation. If we discover the Ancestral Dragon Ruins along the way, we might as well take a look, "Li Xinghua said gently.
"But we don't have any clues. It's going to be difficult to find the entrance to the Ancestral Dragon Ruins," Zhu Minglang said.
"Sister Xinghua, you can look for it by observing the stars."
"Everything will wither and flourish, and the sea will turn into mulberry fields. The stars and the Star Array will also undergo slight changes due to the ancient decay," Li Xinghua said.
Zhu Minglang only recalled that Li Xinghua wasn't just fiddling with the orchids last night. She often appeared at the window and stared at the stars.
Was she looking for the ancient lamp jade by observing the stars?
