Su Chen did not leave the convoy, but followed along. However, the people in the convoy became much more cautious and dared not make a loud noise.
In this world, the strong can have the power of life and death over the weak.
When the weak face the strong, they will naturally be much more cautious.
However, Sun Qian appeared quite calm, and even took the initiative to talk to Su Chen on many occasions.
He knew very well that Su Chen meant him no harm. Sun Qian couldn't see that in other ways, but he was very confident in this point; he was absolutely certain that Sun Qian was right.
"Senior, when you go to Duantian City, why don't you come visit our Sand Wolf Mercenary Group?"
Sun Qian extended the invitation with a smile on his face.
Su Chen sat comfortably in the carriage. Because it was Spirit Horse and the carriage itself was a treasure, the journey was very smooth without any bumps.
"No."
After saying that, Su Chen opened his eyes and looked at Sun Qian again.
Sun Qian's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. Something appeared out of thin air in his mind—a mental imprint.
Such spiritual imprints are usually used to store Cultivation Method or inheritances. Sun Qian was slightly taken aback, wondering what Su Chen was planning to do.
But when he looked up at Su Chen, the three people in the carriage had already disappeared.
At the same time, Su Chen's voice echoed in his mind.
"If we can understand what's inside, we'll meet again someday."
Su Chen did not directly accept Sun Qian as a disciple, but instead gave him a certain Trial. This Trial was not particularly difficult, but it would take a very long time, because the spiritual imprint contained something that would allow Sun Qian to break through to the Immortal Emperor level.
The Trial isn't actually that difficult; it's simply about understanding what's within the spiritual imprint.
During this period, he was also able to observe Sun Qian's character through the mental imprint.
Of course, Sun Qian could also choose to refuse. This spiritual imprint was not forcibly inscribed; if Sun Qian didn't want it, he could expel it from his Divine Sense space.
Feeling the vast amount of knowledge within the spiritual imprint, many things left him in awe, and he knew exactly what had happened.
Is Su Chen trying to take him as a disciple?
Sun Qian's eyes showed a hint of excitement. If Su Chen were just an ordinary person, he probably wouldn't have any emotional reaction.
However, the contents of this spiritual imprint were too terrifying. Even with all his strength, he could only see one or two tenths of it.
Even so, he already felt it was enough to break through to the Immortal King or even Immortal Lord level.
Who exactly is this person?
Not long after the others disappeared, Su Chen reappeared deep within the Hengduan Mountains.
Yelan looked around and immediately realized where she was. This was her home, the place where Yelan had lived since childhood.
The heart of the Hengduan Mountains consists of towering peaks, the most majestic and magnificent of which is the territory of the Hengduan Mountains Demon King.
The Nine-tailed Fox descendant clan also possesses some strength within the Hengduan Mountains. Their Clan Chief is a half-step Immortal King powerhouse, hence the presence of a not-too-tall mountain range near the edge of their territory.
It's called Fox Mountain!
Generally speaking, if a Demon Race or clan can enter the heart of the Hengduan Mountains and possess a mountain, then they are considered to be quite powerful.
This place is also not far from Fox Mountain; you can see it just by looking up.
"Fox Mountain, I'm finally back!"
Yelan looked extremely excited and happy; after so many years, she had finally returned.
I wonder how my parents are doing. They must be worried sick about me after all these years without me coming back.
Yelan hurriedly pulled Su Chen along towards Fox Mountain. The Nine-tailed Fox descendant were always dependent on powerful people; the men depended on powerful women, and the women depended on powerful men, and this had always been the case.
For her, finding a very strong man was something to be very happy about.
It's similar to how children in the mortal world want to go home and show off to their parents after earning money.
In Yelan's heart, Su Chen was someone she was very proud of.
There are relatively few Demon Beast in the heart of the Hengduan Mountains. They mostly live in their own mountain ranges and generally do not trespass into the territories of other Demon Race.
Yelan released his aura to conceal Su Chen's Human Race aura, so no other Demon Beast noticed the arrival of Human Race.
Fox Mountain.
Although this mountain range is not particularly tall, that's only relative to other mountain ranges. Fox Mountain is still nearly several hundred miles in diameter.
From a distance, Fox Mountain is shrouded in Cloudmist, and there are protrusions on both sides of the mountainside, which look like a pair of fox ears.
At the foot of Fox Mountain, two strong and handsome men stood there. They were good-looking and had very attractive physiques; they would definitely be considered top-tier beauties by outside standards.
No wonder so many young women in Dragon Breath City yearn for a man who is a Nine-tailed Fox descendant.
Which woman wouldn't be confused after seeing this?
"Who!"
Ye Qiu roared and looked into the distance, ready for battle.
The grass and trees swayed, and several figures emerged from them. Leading them was Yelan, who had now regained her Demon Race form, and her Four-tailed were extremely conspicuous.
Yelan had not returned to Fox Mountain for a long time, so Ye Qiu and the other man did not recognize her at first. However, seeing the Four-tailed behind her, they knew that she was one of their own, so they did not show any hostility.
"Who are you..."
Upon seeing her familiar tribesmen again, Yelan exclaimed excitedly, "Brother Ye Qiu, it's me! I'm Yelan!"
"Yelan?"
Ye Qiu was stunned again, then finally reacted, his face beaming with joy. "Is it really you? I heard from my clansmen that you were captured by the Human Race? Why haven't you come back for so many years? Don't you know how worried your clansmen are about you?"
"And Third Uncle and Third Aunt, they..."
At this point, Ye Qiu quickly stopped talking and then swiftly changed the subject.
"They've been gone for so long, why didn't they even send us a message?"
Although Ye Qiu's words were full of reproach, his tone was full of concern. There were not many Nine-tailed Fox descendant descendants to begin with, only about seventy or eighty demons in total.
Because of their relatively small number, they are quite united within the tribe and have a very good relationship with each other.
Yelan said helplessly, "So much has happened since I left, it's impossible to explain it all in a short time."
As she spoke, she seemed to remember something, so she quickly took two steps back, took Su Chen's hand, and continued speaking.
"Brother Ye Qiu, this is my master. He's coming with me to Fox Mountain."
Owner?
Ye Qiu immediately looked at Su Chen, and when he realized that Su Chen was only at the Earth Immortal Cultivation Level, his expression suddenly turned cold, and he seemed to be indecisive.
Ye Yun, standing next to Ye Qiu, drew his sword and pointed it at Su Chen, his tone filled with killing intent.
"So that's why Yelan suddenly left Fox Mountain. It was you who did it! Did you kidnap Yelan?"
