Setting Out! Traces of an Old Dog? Black Demon Mountain!

Afterwards, Chen Changqing stayed in the Imperial City of the Maple Leaf Dynasty for a few days before bidding farewell to Liu Ruyan and the others and setting off back to Mount Shu.

"Changqing, won't you stay a few more days?"

Empress Liuye pleaded with her to stay.

"Your Empress."

"This Hundred Dynasties War has come to an end."

"The necessary tasks have all been completed."

Upon hearing this, Empress Liuye did not offer any further advice.

Deep down, I knew that with Chen Changqing's talent, his future stage would be even bigger.

"Junior brother."

I wonder when we'll meet again?

Liu Ruyan looked at Chen Changqing with reluctance.

After Chen Changqing returned from the Divine Dynasty, the unspoken understanding between Chen Changqing was finally revealed.

Chen Changqing made it clear that in addition to being the son-in-law of the Divine Dynasty, he was also willing to be the Imperial Son-in-law of the Maple Leaf Dynasty, and she no longer cared about Chen Changqing's many lovers.

"Senior sister."

"We'll meet again someday."

Besides...

At this point, Chen Changqing suddenly paused, then leaned close to Liu Ruyan's ear and whispered something:

"I haven't become the prince consort of the Maple Leaf Dynasty yet!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan's pretty face immediately flushed red with embarrassment.

Chen Changqing then left on his sword.

Watching Chen Changqing's departing figure, Liu Ruyan's gaze became fixed, her eyes filled with tender affection.

She only slowly withdrew her gaze after Chen Changqing's figure had completely disappeared from sight.

Soon, Chen Changqing returned to the path he had come from.

With the status of Imperial Son-in-law of the Divine Dynasty, he naturally had no obstacles along the way.

Upon arriving at the place guarded by the Gate Guardians, they were immediately allowed to pass.

"Having the status of a prince consort of the Divine Dynasty is really great!"

"Within this Imperial Dynasty territory, no one dares to stop me."

Chen Changqing sighed inwardly, then his figure flashed and he disappeared directly into a teleportation channel.

When he reappeared, Chen Changqing had already returned to the Nine Provinces Continent.

"Huff huff..."

Looking at the mountains and rivers of the Nine Provinces Continent, Chen Changqing couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"The Nine Provinces Continent is still the best!"

Chen Changqing looked around and couldn't help but sigh.

He always felt somewhat uneasy in the Divine Dynasty Continent, as if his every move was being monitored at all times.

After all, the Divine Dynasty exists within an Immortal Artifact.

"Now I possess quite a few Immortal Artifacts."

"Besides the Heaven-Stepping Ring, there's also the Heavenly Thunder Sword, and the Blood Prison Mad Blade, which was seized from Crown Prince Chu Tian of the Great Chu Crown Prince."

"I just don't know how a world can be formed within these Immortal Artifacts?"

Chen Changqing muttered to himself.

Putting aside other things, just take the Immortal Artifact Heaven-Stepping Ring, for example. It was left behind by the Heaven-Stepping Immortal Emperor.

However, Chen Changqing currently only uses it for storage and has not developed any other functions.

"Perhaps only high-level Immortal Artifacts can be used to create a world!"

"I'm only at the Nascent Soul stage now; thinking about creating another world is still too far-fetched."

After thinking it over, Chen Changqing composed himself and turned his gaze toward a city in the distance.

Let's find a place to stay first!

Without further ado, he flew directly on his sword towards the mortal city.

Before long, Chen Changqing had concealed his aura and landed in that city.

After wandering around for a while, he came to a restaurant on the street.

As soon as I stepped into the restaurant, the waiter greeted me politely:

"Please come in, sir!"

"Our Drunken Immortal Brew is the most famous for miles around!"

As he spoke, the waiter led Chen Changqing to a seat by the window.

"A pot of Drunken Immortal Brew, and a few of our signature side dishes, please."

Chen Changqing said calmly.

"Alright!"

"Please wait a moment, sir, your fine wine and food will be served shortly."

Before long, a pot of Drunken Immortal Brew and several small dishes of appetizers were served on the table.

Although Chen Changqing had long since Grain Avoidance, he still enjoyed the lively atmosphere of the mortal world.

Then he poured himself a drink.

Looking out the window, the bustling crowds and lively city life gave Chen Changqing a long-lost feeling.

Not long after, several Cultivators arrived at the next table. Their cultivation levels varied, with the strongest among them only reaching the Eighth Layer of Qi Refining.

Chen Changqing didn't pay any attention to this and continued eating and drinking as usual.

After the Cultivators took their seats, they ordered some wine and dishes, and while waiting for the food and drinks, they chatted idly.

Have you heard?

"Things haven't been peaceful on Black Demon Mountain lately!"

"It seems a formidable Demon Race has emerged."

One of the Cultivator started the conversation.

Hearing this, the other Cultivators all became interested.

"Of course I've heard about it."

"That Demon Race looks like a Black Dog!"

"Extremely powerful!"

A Cultivator chimed in.

"Oh!"

At this moment, the Cultivator at the Eighth Layer of Qi Refining scoffed and said:

"It's more than just hearsay."

"I saw it with my own eyes!"

"That guy was a huge, jet-black dog, it must have been this big!"

As he spoke, the Cultivator stood up and made a large circle with his hands, his movements extremely exaggerated.

The other Cultivators, upon seeing this, were all shocked.

Seeing this, the Eighth Layer of Qi Refining Cultivator said again:

"You don't know."

"This dog demon appeared out of nowhere; it's incredibly powerful and has taken over half of Black Demon Mountain."

Even the original mountain king, the Black Bear Monster, couldn't do anything to him.

At this point, the Eighth Layer of Qi Refining Cultivator paused, then raised his head slightly and continued:

"However, no matter how powerful they are, it's useless."

"The matter of Black Demon Mountain has reportedly attracted the attention of the Beast Taming Sect."

"It won't be long before someone from the Beast Taming Sect comes to subdue them."

After hearing what this person said, the other Cultivators nodded and said:

"Even the Beast Taming Sect has been alerted?"

"Although the Beast Taming Sect is Demon Sect, it is naturally the best choice for dealing with the Demon Race."

"This Black Demon Mountain is controlled by the Demon Race and is causing havoc in the neighborhood. It's long overdue for someone to take action against it."

"It's a pity that it wasn't a righteous sect that made the move!"

"..."

Chen Changqing hadn't paid much attention to it at first.

However, when he heard the others mention the Black Dog, a thought suddenly struck him.

"Black Dog?"

"It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"

"Could it be Little Black Wangcai?"

He subconsciously thought of his spirit pet.

When he went to the Dao Sect to visit the Universe Secret Realm before, Little Black was with him.

Unfortunately, the teleportation failed when leaving the Secret Realm.

When Chen Changqing woke up, he had already been transported to the Blood Moon World, but the whereabouts of the Little Black Dog Wangcai were unknown.

Chen Changqing only knew that the Little Black Dog was still alive.

After all, the Soul Contract between the Little Black Dog and him still exists; if the Little Black Dog dies, the Soul Contract will naturally disappear as well.

"The Beast Taming Sect?"

Then, Chen Changqing thought of the Beast Taming Sect.

He also knew a little about this sect.

It is one of the Ten Great Demon Sects, specializing in controlling Demon Race, and it is said that the sect also imprisons strange beasts such as Flood Dragons.
