In both his past and present life, Chen Xiao was a pragmatist.
Even though he didn't care about anything that wasn't a divine-grade treasure …
But he had to rush to the Azure Water Region. Even though the Xuan Wu Kingdom had a tough environment, he had to prepare in advance.
"It just so happens that Wang Haogan still needs some time. I can make use of this opportunity to make some preparations."
Chen Xiao rubbed his chin and thought to himself.
It was different from the True Xuan Domain.
The Azure Water Region was the number one domain in the Middle Heaven Continent!
The cultivation environment there was better and there were more elites. Even the extinct Essence Soul Supremacies in the True Xuan Domain would occasionally show their prowess in front of others.
Therefore …
He had to make sufficient preparations!
"Since you have all made your choice, I won't keep you any longer."
At this moment, Jun Mengxiao regained her composure and chuckled, "But if you have any trouble, you can look for me at the Monarch's Residence. Just say that you are my friend and someone will come to receive you."
After that, the group of people said their goodbyes.
Chen Xiao asked for a map from Jun Mengxiao and left.
The carriage quieted down again.
A faint shadow walked out from behind Jun Mengxiao and said in a hoarse voice, "First Mistress, you have overstepped your boundaries. Letting outsiders stay in the Monarch's Residence for no reason will only add to His Highness's plan."
At this point, the illusory figure sneered and looked over with a mocking gaze.
"Also, don't have any evil thoughts. Obediently cooperate with His Highness is First Mistress's only choice. Even if you drag them into this, there will only be a few more innocent souls. "
Hearing this, Jun Mengxiao couldn't help but tremble.
Since returning to the Royal Capital, she finally realized … she had been tricked!
The reason why the Second Duke of Xuan Wu Kingdom spent so much effort to find her from the Western Horizontal Prefecture wasn't because of fatherly love, but because of the special bloodline in her body!
In the eyes of outsiders, she was the glorious Princess Huiqin.
But in fact, she was a canary with nowhere to run.
"I … I understand." Jun Mengxiao smiled bitterly.
"If that brat knows his place and doesn't come to the Prince's Mansion, then he can be considered lucky. But if he comes …"
The voice behind him laughed strangely, "Then it can only be that he is unlucky."
…
Meanwhile.
"My first target … shall be the Alchemist Guild."
Chen Xiao tilted his head and looked at a Pill Tower that towered into the clouds not far away.
Although the Alchemist Guild, the Tool Master Guild, and so on were located in different regions of the Shenwu Continent, they would more or less change depending on the local customs.
But overall, the only difference was in scale. Most of the basic structures were basically the same.
If he were to stroll around the streets, he might have a chance to pick up some treasures. However, the probability was too small. He might as well collect them from the major powers!
Not long after.
The Alchemist Guild's bell rang nine times!
Almost in an instant, countless gazes in the capital city were cast in the direction of the Alchemist Guild.
"The bell … rang nine times?"
Many passersby were stunned, but there were also some who seemed to have realized something and shuddered.
In the Alchemist Guild, many busy apprentices, alchemists, and workers stopped what they were doing and looked at the highest floor of the Pill Tower with disbelief and shock in their eyes.
"Even if a Grandmaster is born, the bell will only ring seven times. When a new president takes over, the bell will ring eight times. Today, the bell rang nine times. Is it because …"
Many people were bewildered.
The Alchemist Guild of the capital city had been established for many years, but it had never rung nine times.
For a moment, many people were dumbfounded, unable to react at all. Just what had happened!
Suddenly, an old figure rushed out from the top floor of the Pill Tower.
"Great Grandmaster, please slow down and wait for me! I have some doubts. If you are willing to answer them, I will definitely reward you handsomely! "
The figure rushed out of the Pill Tower as fast as lightning, stirring up a large cloud of dust.
On the spot, the group of Alchemists exchanged glances with one another, their faces filled with disbelief.
"The person who rushed out just now … seems to be our president?"
"No! The president seems to be chasing someone? He seemed to be shouting … Grandmaster? "
"Wait a minute … Grandmaster?!"
In an instant.
The surroundings were silent.
Everyone reacted in an instant.
Grandmaster!
Only when an alchemist reached the third grade and above could they be called "Grandmaster".
Only the birth of a Grandmaster could cause the president of the Alchemist Guild to lose his composure in public!
"If that's the case …"
An old alchemist twisted his neck with difficulty. After a long while, he squeezed out a sentence.
"Just now … our guild … gave birth to … a Grandmaster?"
Everyone was shocked!
…
"What the hell … this Grandmaster … where did he go?"
Xiang Ping took a deep breath. The corner of his mouth twitched violently. His face was as if he had seen a ghost.
It was not that he had never seen a Grandmaster in his life.
When he took over as the president of the guild, and when the previous president took over, there were Grandmasters from the higher guilds who came through the Inter-City Teleportation Portal to hand over the authorization to the new president.
He had seen cold and aloof Grandmasters, as well as amiable and approachable Grandmasters …
But he had never seen … a Grandmaster who could run so well!
The speed at which he chased out of the Pill Pagoda could be said to be extremely fast. But the other party just had to take a few steps to completely shake him off and completely disappear into the crowd.
The speed was so fast that it was simply shocking!
"Where did I chase him to …"
Wiping away the sweat on his forehead, Xiang Ping raised his head to look. A similarly hundred zhang tall pagoda with a completely different style from the Pill Pagoda instantly reflected in his eyes.
"I've already chased him to the Weapon Master Guild? That's really quite far. Speaking of which, I'm afraid that old fogey Lu Kangning hasn't been having a good time recently? Vice President Wang Haogan not only has a Golden Core cultivation, his attainments in smithing has even touched the third grade realm … "
Just as he was muttering to himself.
He saw a familiar figure suddenly rushing out of the Weapon Master Guild as fast as lightning, shouting loudly with his heart burning with anxiety as he chased all the way into the distance.
"Lord Grandmaster! Don't leave! Why are you leaving just like that?! "
"This … This is …"
Xiang Ping was slightly dazed. Soon after, he heard that within the Weapon Master Guild, there were actually nine chimes of the bell. It was melodious and distant, able to shake one's soul.
"Nine chimes of the bell, there's actually a Grandmaster in the Weapon Master Guild?"
After being stunned for a few breaths of time, Xiang Ping exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly chased after the figure.
In the capital, there were two major powers consecutively that had Grandmaster level figures emerging …
To the current situation where the undercurrents were surging violently, this might be a shocking turning point!
Unexpectedly, not long after he chased.
Suddenly, another nine chimes of the bell came from the Weapon Master Guild!
It was this day.
The bell in the capital rang incessantly, shaking the powers in all directions!
