The ship has docked.

Lu Changsheng walked from the boat to the shore.

People gather quickly, and they part quickly as well.

"After this parting, I don't know when I will see Brother Lu again. However, meeting Brother Mu Zhi in this life is not a wasted trip. If we are destined to meet again, I will definitely treat Brother Lu to a good drink."

On the shore, Zhou Haijie spoke up, expressing his feelings. The others nodded in agreement, especially the women, who were not at all reserved. They asked Lu Changsheng he lived, and some even boldly asked if he was married.

Lu Changsheng politely refused all of them, causing several women to weep softly inside the boat, clearly heartbroken.

"Brother Lu, Great Qian Imperial Capital. Don't you really want to stay there for a while?"

When Wang Fugui spoke, his words carried a hint of wealth and status.

He warmly invited Lu Changsheng to stay at his home in the capital.

However, Lu Changsheng knew what he was going to do, so he politely declined.

"It is fate that we meet today. If we meet again in the future, I, Lu, will definitely drink with you."

Lu Changsheng bowed and then left with Liu Qingfeng.

That's just how travel sometimes is.

I met different people.

I saw different scenery.

Seeing different things.

This is the real journey.

Do not ask, do not speak, do not think. Meeting is fate, parting is the beginning of another story.

"Brother Lu, please wait a moment!"

Just then, Wang Fugui's voice rang out.

However, Lu Changsheng casually waved his hand. He knew the other party was reluctant to part with him, but that's how it is when you travel through the mortal world—you don't look back, you just keep moving forward.

This is true freedom and joy in life.

"I have prepared some travel expenses for you, Brother Lu. I hope you will find them useful on your journey."

Wang Fugui's voice rang out again.

At this moment, the road ahead came to a halt.

Money for the journey?

Lu Changsheng turned around without hesitation and looked at Wang Fugui with curiosity.

"What did you say, brother?"

He seemed curious, as if he hadn't heard clearly.

"He said he had prepared some travel expenses for us," Liu Qingfeng quickly said, mistakenly thinking that Lu Changsheng hadn't heard him clearly.

However, after receiving an indifferent look from Lu Changsheng, Liu Qingfeng knew it was time to shut up.

"Brother Lu, this is some travel money I have prepared for you. The journey is long, and without some money, I'm afraid you won't be able to move an inch."

Wang Fugui was extremely considerate. He had his servants bring out a plate of gold. Upon closer inspection, there were twenty ingots of gold, each ingot being fifty taels, meaning this plate contained a thousand taels of gold.

Indeed, as the old saying goes, having a wealthy friend means you'll have ten years less to struggle with.

"Brother Wang, you absolutely mustn't!"

However, one should still pay the proper respects; accepting money directly would only make one appear greedy.

"Not at all, it's just a small amount of money. If it can help Brother Lu, I would be happy to give you ten thousand taels, let alone a thousand."

Wang Fugui is indeed very generous.

That's really rare.

I will remember this kindness and repay it after I finish and descend the mountain.

"Brother Wang's kindness will be remembered forever. Qing Feng, take the money."

Lu Changsheng was deeply moved. He wanted to be sentimental for a bit longer, but remembering what happened with Ziyun in the past, Lu Changsheng stopped being sentimental.

Know when to quit while you're ahead.

In reality, Lu Changsheng could easily obtain silver. He could simply sell the items in his Great Luo Universe Ring to exchange for a large amount of Spirit Stone, and one pound of Spirit Stone could be exchanged for a hundred taels of gold.

This thousand taels of gold is actually only equivalent to ten catties of Spirit Stone.

The treasures stored in Lu Changsheng's Storage Ring, any one of them would be worth no less than ten thousand catties of Spirit Stone.

All I can say is that Wang Fugui saved him some trouble.

Of course, Lu Changsheng would always remember this kindness.

Similarly, this kind of life is the true way to travel the world and experience all aspects of life.

Otherwise, one could simply ride the Twelfth Grade Green Lotus and arrive in Jinling City in a single day; there would be no need for such trouble.

On this trip down the mountain, Lu Changsheng also planned to travel around the beautiful landscape and experience the various aspects of life.

Change your taste, change your mood.

"Brother Lu, please take care."

After receiving the money, Lu Changsheng expressed his gratitude and then left again. Wang Fugui called out to him with reluctance, leaving behind endless emotions.

Actually, the most pitiful ones are these women, because after seeing Lu Changsheng, they no longer have any other men in their hearts.

Feeling affection but not being in love—this is the most painful thing in the world: to have met someone, to have liked them, but not being able to be together.

If I had known this would happen, I would have preferred not to have met, not to have encountered, and not to have loved.

But that's life.

One hour later.

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Lu Changsheng arrived at the teleportation station.

It only takes ten breaths to teleport from Jinling City to the Great Qian Imperial Capital, a distance of 20,000 li.

To use the teleportation array, you either need to give Spirit Stone or a token.

Lu Changsheng possesses a Great Qian Imperial Decree.

This imperial edict was sent by the Great Qian Dynasty after I became a literary sage. With this edict, one can move freely throughout the Great Qian Dynasty and mobilize the law enforcement teams of every city. Its power is second only to the emperor.

The four great dynasties sent imperial decrees, all of which were placed into the Great Luo Universe Ring by Qingyun Daoist.

And so it happened that day at the hour of Xu (7-9 PM).

Lu Changsheng and Liu Qingfeng then arrived at the Great Qian Imperial Capital.

It has to be said.

The Great Qian Imperial Capital was more magnificent than Jinling City.

Pavilions and towers rose up everywhere, and the noise of people was deafening. What was most obvious was that the capital of the Great Qian Imperial Capital was a place where hidden talents were gathered, and many cultivators had gathered here.

"This is a cultivator from the Dan Ding Sect, this one is from the Qingxia Sect, that one is from the Guyue Sect, and that senior brother is from the Heaven Scorpion Gate."

Liu Qingfeng lowered his voice and spoke slowly from the side.

Introducing Lu Changsheng.

"Heaven Scorpion Gate? What kind of sect is that? Is it a demonic sect?"

Lu Changsheng was somewhat curious.

"It's not exactly the demonic path. If it were, they wouldn't dare to appear here. The Heaven Scorpion Gate is neither righteous nor evil. They won't do anything bad on their own initiative, but once you offend someone from this sect, they will keep a close eye on you. So most sects don't dare to provoke them."

Liu Qingfeng said this.

Lu Changsheng nodded; there were still many things he didn't understand about this world.

After all, he's only been here for three years, and in the early stages he focused on cultivating immortality.

The capital city is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations everywhere, which is probably related to the so-called Lantern Festival.

"This person is very handsome."

"Isn't this person far too handsome?"

"He's so handsome, he looks exactly like my dream guy."

"Don't be shameless, this is the person I've been looking for."

"My God, how can there be such a handsome person in the world?"

Along the way, various sounds arose.

Lu Changsheng automatically ignored these compliments; he had indeed grown tired of hearing them too often.

There's nothing we can do about it.

On the main road.

Lu Changsheng was dressed in white. His face was calm, his appearance was handsome and dashing, and his handsome face was unbelievable. Coupled with his transcendent temperament, he attracted countless people.

Soon, Lu Changsheng arrived outside the Great Qian Imperial Palace.
