Leaving Cangxuan, the Lord of Brocade Zither City

Lone Smoke City.

Chen Ning led Hua Luo by the hand, with the demonic ape standing guard beside them. Opposite them was Elder Duan, who had a smile on his face.

"Please wait Elder Duan. I will come back to see you again."

"My benefactor, your departure is so sudden. I have nothing to see you off with. Take this map. It marks some mountainous terrain and spheres of influence north of the Cangxuan Domain. You should find it useful."

"Okay! Thank you, Elder Duan."

Chen Ning accepted the map.

Elder Duan shook his head and laughed, "This old man should thank my benefactor. He helped that girl settle a blood feud and even got me the position of vice president."

Chen Ning smiled dismissively.

As for Elder Duan was able to become the vice president of the Setting Sun Chamber of Commerce, it still depended on the Mo Clan's influence.

This is also a detail shown by the Mo Clan, who proactively helped Chen Ning resolve seemingly insignificant matters.

Chen Ning looked toward the city gate, but still did not see the figure he was looking forward to.

He couldn't help but shake his head.

Just as they were about to leave.

Suddenly.

A familiar voice rang out.

"Chen Ning!"

The sound grew louder as it approached, and then a graceful figure appeared before Chen Ning.

A slender and graceful figure.

Her fair, jade-like neck was as elegant as a swan's.

At this moment, Sikong Xue seemed like a completely different person. Her black hair was tied up, and she wore a white dress, showing no trace of sloppiness.

Not only is it not sloppy, but it's also not messy.

She has the appearance of a fairy.

"Hey! Are you stunned?"

Sikong Xue smiled shyly.

Chen Ning nodded. "It looks so good, why didn't you dress it up sooner? Why did you have to make it all dirty?"

That's what they say.

In fact, Chen Ning knew about her forbearance; otherwise, with her stunning beauty, she could easily attract trouble.

On the contrary, after being disguised...

Even the lustful Yellow Sand Lord simply kicked her away.

It's quite a good camouflage.

"Isn't it because you're leaving? I'm showing you my true colors, otherwise I wouldn't like wearing these clothes at all; they're not comfortable at all."

Sikong Xue snorted.

Chen Ning asked, "Are you really not coming with me?"

Sikong Xue paused for a moment, then said, "You're so prone to causing trouble; you'll definitely make a lot of enemies. I'd better not; it's too dangerous to follow you."

"Alright."

Chen Ning said softly, "Lone Smoke City is now entirely under the control of the Mo Clan. If you want to cultivate, go to the Mo Clan; all their resources will be open to you."

"Okay, I've got it."

Afraid of bursting into tears, Sikong Xue quickly ran to Hua Luo and gave her a big hug.

"Hua'er, if he encounters danger in the future, you must protect yourself and run as far away as possible."

"Big Ape, and you too, always acting silly, you must protect them!"

The demonic ape stood proudly, its enormous eyes calm, yet it was acutely aware of just how terrifying its temporary master was.

Originally, Chen Ning only relied on the Demon God's Eye to suppress it.

After helping it escape, the demonic ape continued to fulfill its promise to protect Chen Ning.

However, after the battle at the Absolute Void Mountain Range...

The demonic ape's attitude towards Chen Ning changed somewhat again.

That was a genuine sense of awe.

After leaving Lone Smoke City.

Heading north.

Because of the map provided by Elder Duan, the coordinates of Brocade Zither City happen to be on it.

So very quickly.

They then crossed numerous mountains and rivers and arrived in the territory of the Boulder Domain.

Brocade Zither City is located in the center of the Boulder Domain.

It is said that the ruler of Brocade Zither City is a female city lord, who is considered extremely beautiful. Countless powerful figures from the Boulder Domain have fallen at her feet and joined Brocade Zither City.

Just to catch a glimpse of her beautiful face.

If this continues...

Brocade Zither City thus became a major city where powerful figures from the Boulder Domain gathered.

When we were still some distance from Brocade Zither City.

Chen Ning then sensed through his Divine Sense that many powerful auras had begun to appear nearby.

They all rushed towards Brocade Zither City.

"Old monster! The Brocade Zither City is looking for a husband, what are you doing getting involved, you old codger!"

"Hmph! It didn't say it only recruits young cultivators. This old man is still as sharp as ever..."

"Hahaha, you're old in years but young at heart! You old monster, your ugly appearance might scare away any beautiful young lady!"

"More than that... I'm afraid his thing is already useless!"

A teasing sound.

A sigh of disappointment.

The crowd burst into laughter.

This made the area quite lively.

From Chen Ning's cursory glance, he could tell that these people all possessed considerable power, with the strongest old man being Late-Stage Saint.

At this moment.

In the crowd, a young monk caught his eye.

She was about eight or nine years old.

Chen Ning couldn't help but glance at him again.

Compared to the various methods others use to get around.

The young monk walked steadily and calmly towards Brocade Zither City.

Suddenly.

Behind the little monk.

A man who was running at full speed was rolling towards Brocade Zither City.

Right.

Just get out!

The man transformed his entire body into a giant stone sphere at incredible speed.

But right now.

It was about to run over the little monk who was walking slowly.

Chen Ning's eyes flickered.

With a flick of the finger, the rolling stone ball shifted slightly, and as a result...

The man rammed directly into the city wall.

It was deeply embedded in the city wall.

This scene.

This drew sidelong glances from some people around them.

The man embedded in the city wall was furious. After withdrawing his Divine Ability, he immediately looked around and roared, "Who is so blind as to attack me?"

At this time.

A young man in black, walking on air in the sky, laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist, I just witnessed this person launch a sneak attack, which caused you to be embarrassed in front of so many people."

The young man in black pointed at Chen Ning.

Instantly.

The man's anger flared, and he roared, "Why did you attack me? I don't know you, and we have no grudge against each other. If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I don't think you'll be allowed into Brocade Zither City today."

There's going to be some excitement.

Many people couldn't help but stop.

Anyway, Brocade Zither City is right in front of us, so a little time won't make a difference.

"This is terrible... Who is this person? How dare he provoke the young master of the Shi Household..."

"The Shi Household is an ancient and prestigious Aristocratic Clan that ranks among the top in the entire Boulder Domain, and even the entire Nebula Continent!"

" Within the Boulder Domain, five major cities are controlled by the Shi Household! And the two current young masters of the Shi Household, the brothers Shi Jingtian and Shi Potian, are both geniuses of their time."

Many people recognized him.

It was Shi Potian.

He also has an older brother named Shi Jingtian, who is even more gifted.

"The young master of the Shi Household has already entered the Saint Realm Middle Stage realm!"

"Among the powerful figures who came to Brocade Zither City this time, Shi Potian's strength is definitely among the top ten."

Some people were full of praise.

"He's just relying on his Lineage's power to act arrogantly; he's not even worth my attention. His older brother is the real genius!"

At this time.

A young man in a yellow robe spoke with a hint of disdain on his lips.
