Extreme North Training Journey
"Understood, Grandpa." Jun Xuehan and Qian Renxue exchanged a glance and replied in unison.
"Alright, you two go about your business. Grandpa's going back to the Worship Hall first." Qian Daoliu waved to Jun Xuehan and Qian Renxue, indicating that they should go do what they needed to do.
Upon hearing this, Jun Xuehan and Qian Renxue agreed without hesitation and walked straight out of the Worship Hall.
Watching the two figures leave, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but smile and shake his head, putting his hands behind his back and heading straight towards the Worship Hall.
On the way, Jun Xuehan looked at Qian Renxue beside her and asked softly, "Xue'er, how long do you plan to stay in Spirit City?"
Qian Renxue thought for a moment and said, "It will only take three to five days. I can't leave the Heaven Dou Empire for too long."
Jun Xuehan smoothed her hair and said, "Three to five days is fine, just take it as a rest. However, you may have to return to the Heaven Dou Empire by yourself then."
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's smile vanished instantly.
"Xuehan, are you still going to the Far North for training?" Qian Renxue stopped and looked directly at Jun Xuehan, her expression not very happy.
"Yes, that's inevitable. Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. I've already read ten thousand books, so I should go and see the world." Jun Xuehan reached out and hugged Qian Renxue's waist, then gently stroked her hair.
"Hmph, fine." Qian Renxue snorted coldly, broke free from Jun Xuehan's embrace, and said, "We'll go to Spirit City and get you some things for your trip to the Far North."
With that, Qian Renxue pulled Jun Xuehan and walked outside.
Walking on the streets of Spirit City, Qian Renxue asked softly, "Xuehan, what are you planning to do that made you come back from the Far North to find me?"
Hearing Qian Renxue's question, Jun Xuehan smiled and said, "I will definitely come back to find you before the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Tournament begins. At that time, I will use my own strength to conquer the Elite Soul Master Tournament."
A smile appeared on Qian Renxue's face. She nodded slightly and said, "I'll be waiting for the day you dominate the Elite Soul Master Tournament."
The two talked and bought a series of daily necessities in Spirit City before returning to the Spirit Hall.
Four days passed in the blink of an eye.
Jun Xuehan and Qian Renxue entered the carriage, and with a neigh from the horse, the carriage headed towards Heaven Dou City.
Inside the carriage, Qian Renxue asked softly, "Xuehan, didn't you say you weren't coming back to Heaven Dou City with me? Why have you changed your mind now?"
Jun Xuehan gently embraced Qian Renxue and said, "I'm not going back to Heaven Dou City with you, but I need to go to Suotuo City. There are some things I need to take care of there."
Qian Renxue blinked her beautiful eyes a few times and said, "Hmph, I'll change my mind and not go to the Far North, you bastard."
Seeing Qian Renxue's expression, Jun Xuehan smiled and said, "Why would I change my mind?"
Qian Renxue snorted coldly, leaned against Jun Xuehan and stopped talking, her gaze quietly fixed on the scenery outside the car window.
Jun Xuehan was unwilling to go to the Far North. It was common knowledge on the continent that the Far North was bitterly cold, and due to the climate, it was basically a no-man's-land.
It is not under the jurisdiction of the Spirit Hall, nor is it under the jurisdiction of the Heaven Dou Empire or Star Luo Empire Two Great Empires, so the Extreme North Region is considered a rather chaotic place.
But Jun Xuehan insisted on going, and Qian Renxue had no choice but to comply. She knew very well that she could act on her whims in small matters and make a fuss without any consequences, but there were some things that were different.
Qian Renxue was very clear about these things and could distinguish between what was important and what was urgent.
"Xue'er, the affairs of the Wind Snow Pavilion will now be entrusted to you. The basic framework of the Wind Snow Pavilion has been completed. We just need to wait for it to be fully established and put into normal operation." Jun Xuehan leaned against the carriage and said softly.
"I know, just focus on your training and come back safely." Qian Renxue rolled her eyes and said softly.
"Yes, I will definitely come back." Jun Xuehan smiled, her voice full of gentleness.
Peaceful times are always fleeting. As the carriage continued its journey, Jun Xuehan and Qian Renxue drew ever closer to Heaven Dou City.
A month later, the carriage stopped in front of Heaven Dou City. Qian Renxue was about to push open the carriage door to get out when Jun Xuehan hugged her.
Looking at her slightly parted cherry lips, Jun Xuehan kissed her directly. Qian Renxue reached out and symbolically pushed her away twice before closing her eyes.
After a long pause, their lips parted, and Qian Renxue looked directly into Jun Xuehan's eyes, saying, "Xuehan, once you've finished your training, come back soon. The Far North isn't a good place; there's no need to stay there."
Jun Xuehan reached out and gently touched Qian Renxue's delicate nose, saying, "Don't worry, I'll be the first to come back and see you after I've finished my training."
Qian Renxue gave a smug look and nodded in satisfaction, saying, "Hmph, that's more like it. Be careful while you're out there training."
Jun Xuehan nodded slightly and said, "Xue'er, I know. It's just a training session. Nothing will happen. But you need to be careful while you're in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace. Don't reveal anything before the situation is settled."
After saying their goodbyes, the carriage headed towards Suotuo City. Qian Renxue stood still, watching the departing carriage quietly.
"Hmph, this guy, I really don't understand, what's so great about training in that wretched place in the Far North..." Qian Renxue pursed her lips and murmured softly.
Only after the carriage had disappeared from sight did Qian Renxue reluctantly turn her gaze away and enter Heaven Dou City.
Inside the carriage, Jun Xuehan looked out the window and said loudly, "No need to go to Suotuo City, let's head to the Star Dou Great Forest."
Upon hearing this, the coachman outside the carriage agreed, and the carriage gradually increased its speed, heading straight towards the Star Dou Great Forest.
Jun Xuehan glanced back at the direction of Heaven Dou City before sitting cross-legged in the carriage and entering a state of clear cultivation.
He originally planned to go directly to the Far North, but because of the Tender Seedling in the Spiritual Sea, he decided to go to the Star Dou Great Forest halfway.
The purpose of his trip to the Star Dou Great Forest was quite simple: to consult Gu Yuena. He wanted to see if Gu Yuena knew what that Tender Seedling in his Spiritual Sea was and what its function was.
Although it can be confirmed for the time being that the Tender Seedling pose no harm to him, it is better to find out the unknown things.
