All Sides Make Their Moves
In another city.
Above the palace, Qin Jiuxiao gazed into the distance and murmured:
"Zither Sound Valley?"
As soon as the words fell, a glint flashed in his eyes.
"It seems I'll have to go there myself."
These past few days have had both good and bad times.
The good thing is that my cultivation speed seems to have increased considerably recently.
This made him think that perhaps it was a good thing that Liu Qingyan wasn't around.
But good things are good things, how can we allow those who betray us to live in this world?
Moreover, aside from cultivation, he has not explored or sought any opportunities in the past few days.
Having some knowledge of the art of the zither, Zither Sound Valley might be an opportunity for me.
Of course, this was not the only reason for making such a decision.
A flash of killing intent crossed Qin Jiuxiao's eyes.
He had a gut feeling.
In the Zither Sound Valley, I may encounter Liu Qingyan.
Brush.
With a flash of light, a flying boat appeared in the air.
Qin Jiuxiao rose, boarded the flying boat, summoned several people, and together they flew towards Zither Sound Valley.
In the hidden jungle.
Several figures stood before the monks, Wujie.
"Zither Sound Valley, lead the way."
Upon hearing this, the group nodded somewhat woodenly, remaining silent, and pointed in a certain direction.
A Wujie stepped forward and enveloped Wu Jie in Buddhist light. Then, the group ascended into the air and proceeded in the direction the monk indicated.
In mid-air, Wujie looked at a certain spot, and after a moment, he looked away.
Let's put aside the matter of that generous city for now, starting with the near and moving to the far.
It's another city.
Above the city gate, where the location of the city was originally carved, four large characters have now been replaced.
The Great Zhou Sacred City.
Wherever the prodigies of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty occupy, they are all named after this.
At this moment, flying boats departed from the city in a grand procession, their astonishing movements attracting the attention of countless people.
"What a commotion! Could it be that they've discovered some great treasure land again?" Some people around the city below looked on with curiosity.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone nearby sneered and said:
"Why bother with them? Even if they have good stuff, they're not going to give it to us. Stop looking and hurry up and find a way to pay off our debts. I've heard the consequences will be severe if we don't pay them off before the secret realm ends."
As soon as the voice fell, the boy's expression froze, he sighed, and stopped observing the commotion above.
Elsewhere, a slight change in expression occurred as she looked in the direction the flying boat had gone, and she spoke softly:
"Judging from this, could it be that all the rumors about Zither Sound Valley are true? Could Zither Sound Valley really be the most valuable part of this secret realm?"
People had their guesses and their curiosity.
The flying boat disappeared into the air and headed towards Zither Sound Valley.
On the flying boat.
"Master, are we going to Zither Sound Valley?"
Gu Chen walked over and asked a question.
Upon hearing Lu Changzhi nodded slightly and said:
"Looks like you guessed it."
Gu Chen nodded. "There are many more airships in the sky now than before, and they are heading in basically the same direction as us."
"Through Junior Sister Qin's eavesdropping, they all mentioned Zither Sound Valley. I think we might be going there too."
Lu Changzhi nodded:
"It's said that this place is helpful for cultivation and mental state. You've been killing monsters for a long time, so it's important to balance work and rest; you can't be busy all the time."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chen's eyes flickered slightly.
He took note of what his master meant by "somewhat helpful".
Such a statement, if uttered by someone else, is not worth mentioning.
But it was Master who said those words!
What does that mean.
There's a good chance of a big win!
With this thought in mind, Gu Chen felt a surge of anticipation.
Anything that can make a person stronger is always worth looking forward to.
This trip might be a win-win situation; not only can I take the opportunity to check in, but I might also gain something else.
Kill two birds with one stone!
While Gu Chen was thinking this, Lu Changzhi was also using the system to check Gu Chen's system.
As expected, just as I had guessed.
Gu Chen's system issued a task requiring him to sign in at a specific location in Zither Sound Valley.
Of course, he had no idea what Gu Chen was thinking at that moment.
Otherwise, one would probably still have to say something somewhat helpless.
He was just saying it casually; he didn't dare to guarantee it.
Whether or not you'll definitely reap the rewards depends on how well the system works.
At this moment, Gu Chen also regained his composure and, after confirming the destination, informed Lu Changzhi of the approximate arrival time.
Although the airship was fast, the distance was not short, and it arrived at a relatively late time.
Lu Changzhi wasn't in a hurry about this.
After all, it's enough that Qin Han can arrive before the start.
As for the time at hand...
First, use your External Avatar to collect the remaining opportunities.
Among the Eighteen City.
"It's almost evening again. I hope tonight's harvest will be better. If we're lucky, we might be able to light up the second-floor tower tonight."
"It'll probably be quite troublesome tonight. They won't be back until tomorrow or the day after. We'll need to stockpile the spirit beasts for now. Be careful when we attack tonight, don't injure them too badly, otherwise the spirit beasts will die before they even return, and that wouldn't be good."
"It will indeed be much more troublesome, but given their style, they'll definitely offer more benefits, which is still good."
A group of people gathered together, coming from different backgrounds, and as they faced the setting sun, the atmosphere was surprisingly pleasant.
In fact, this is largely due to the current urban model.
Most people would not want to have their work rewarded and their safety guaranteed.
In this hidden realm, we have finally found such a place, a truly ideal spot, so how could we allow others to wantonly destroy it?
At first, some people might have been a little overconfident.
However, the result was that most others unanimously resisted.
As for now, even if you have ideas, it's best to keep them to yourself and not do anything excessive.
Besides discussing their evening encounters with spirit beasts, some people were also talking about other things.
"I've heard that in the cities occupied by Buddhist Order, they also offer refuge for various parties. It's said that you don't have to pay any fees to stay there, which is similar to this place."
"Really? They don't want it either? I thought all crows were black." Someone looked surprised.
"After all, that's Buddhist Order," one person said, shaking their head.
"The light emanating from Buddhist Order is yellow, but that's not surprising. Buddhist Order are said to always benevolent, so it's quite normal for them not to accept light."
"So, do you have any plans to stay over there?" someone nearby asked.
The Buddhist Order, a top power in the Western Region, doesn't need to gain fame; seemingly, its conditions are no worse than those in the Eighteen City.
