In Nanling Mountains.
Ancient trees thrived as they reached towards the sky. It was such a vibrant forest.
Two figures appeared in the middle of a narrow path.
"Why aren't we flying, Senior Brother? If we continue walking, it will take us forever to reach the next destination," Liu Qingfeng asked curiously.
That's right, these two figures were Liu Qingfeng and Lu Changsheng.
At this time, it was already the third day since they left the Zenith Land.
They only travelled three thousand miles so far.
In fact, they just left the territory of the Zenith Land.
"Qingfeng, we gotta know how to hide ourselves. If we fly, the two of us will be spotted by other cultivators very easily. What if they want to hurt us?" Lu Changsheng taught Liu Qingfeng this patiently.
"But Senior Brother, at our current pace, it will take us at a year to get to the Saint Land of Yin and Yang."
Liu Qingfeng understood that it was always good to be cautious. But this was too much.
Lu Changsheng would first visit the Dynasty of Da Qian and then the Saint Land of Yin and Yang.
The Dynasty of Da Qian was only twenty thousand miles away from the Zenith Land.
However, the Saint Land of Yin and Yang was two hundred thousand miles away. If they were travelling ten thousand miles a day, it would take them twenty days to get there. But at their current speed, it would take them more than six months.
Lu Changsheng shook his head as he said very seriously, "Qingfeng, think about it. There is already a group in front of us. All we need to do right now is to wait. If the group stays totally safe in the following days, we will speed up. If not, we will need to be more careful. The only thing that matters is that we get to our destination in time. The most important thing is the result, not the process." Lu Changsheng's tone while he said this was very calm.
In fact, Lu Changsheng wasn't really afraid of some random bad cultivators.
The main reason was that the Zenith Land sent out a group of people pretending to be Lu Changsheng's guards.
This group was a test.
A test to see if there were any real risks to their trip.
If the group was attacked, Lu Changsheng would immediately go back to the Zenith Land. This wasn't a joke.
If nothing happened to the group, then Lu Changsheng would take his time to get to his destination.
In his eyes, this was a normal amount of caution that needed to be applied.
Seven days later, at the speed of a thousand miles a day, Lu Changsheng and Liu Qingfeng finally arrived at Jingling Port.
Since Jingling had a teleportation circle, it could directly send them to the capital of Da Qian.
However, outside Jingling, there was a wide river that they had to take with a boat in order to get to the city.
Of course, this matter would be much easier for a cultivator when he could fly with his sword.
"Senior Brother, is that a boat?"
Liu Qingfeng pointed at a small boat nearby the port from a distance.
"You've never seen one before?"
Lu Changsheng was a bit curious. He believed that there were boats in the Zenith Land.
"I've seen some, but I've never really been on a boat before since I always used my sword. Senior Brother, can we take a boat?" Liu Qingfeng looked very excited.
These second-generation disciples like Liu Qingfeng in the Zenith Land were born with privileges.
All they needed to do was to cultivate extremely hard. It was very rare for them to leave the sect.
Therefore, when Liu Qingfeng saw the boat, he was very excited.
"I understand."
This was also because Lu Changsheng also wanted to ride the boat.
After all, since he was already here, then no matter how reluctant he was, he wanted to make this trip quite an experience.
Lu Changsheng made up his mind and they headed for the port together.
However, Lu Changsheng's presence soon caused a great stir.
"That young master is so handsome!"
"Unbelievably good-looking!"
"He has a stunning face!"
"Where does that young master come from?"
"He's not a young master! I'm sure he's an immortal!"
"I wonder which sect this exalted immortal came from."
People started to discuss about him.
Lu Changsheng looked very calm. But in fact, he had been trying hard to suppress his aura and was using the Pagoda of Heaven and Earth to prevent any unusual phenomena from occurring.
Otherwise, people would immediately recognize him and there would be no point in hiding himself any more.
The problem was… Lu Changsheng's appearance and demeanor was still absolutely eye-catching.
He was just extremely good-looking after all, almost as if he was a celestial deity who walked out of a painting.
Liu Qingfeng, however, despite being beside him, was completely ignored.
In fact, Liu Qingfeng was also a handsome young man. If Lu Changsheng wasn't standing by his side, he would also catch a lot of attention.
As long as Lu Changsheng was here, no matter how handsome or how dignified you were, you would only be the leaf beside a flower.
At the port, Lu Changsheng's presence instantly caught everyone's eyes. Many young girls were already making heart-shaped eyes at Lu Changsheng.
"Ferryman, we want to go to Jingling. How much is it?" Lu Changsheng asked.
Upon hearing the voice, the ferryman turned around and looked at Lu Changsheng.
Because he was stunned by Lu Changsheng's appearance, it took the ferryman a moment to recover his senses. "Young master, it's only six grams of silver."
Six grams of silver?
Lu Changsheng pretended that the money was in his sleeves, but in actuality, he was trying to find money in the ring.
But to Lu Changsheng's surprise, Perfected Qing Yun didn't prepare any money for him.
There wasn't even a single spirit stone inside.
Lu Changsheng turned around and looked at Liu Qingfeng. "Qingfeng, do you have six grams of silver?"
"Six grams of what? Are you hungry?"
Liu Qingfeng really didn't know what Lu Changsheng was talking about.
Lu Changsheng then realized that this was a stupid question. It was Liu Qingfeng's first time leaving the sect after all.
"Do you have any spirit stones?" Lu Changsheng asked.
"No, why?" Liu Qingfeng shook his head, he didn't have any.
In the Zenith Land, he had servants responsible for taking care of him, this also meant that he didn't have to pay for anything. He would sometimes need to reward some of his Junior Brothers, however, the gifts were always Dharma artifacts or pills.
Well then…
Lu Changsheng's mind went blank for a second.
The old saying was indeed true; with money, one can go anywhere he desires, but without money, one cannot even move an inch.
"Try and earn some money. Use any spell that you know," Lu Changsheng lowered his voice.
"Senior Brother, we're righteous cultivators. This is humiliating," Liu Qingfeng responded in a serious manner.
Wow.
Lu Changsheng was quite surprised by Liu Qingfeng's solemn attitude.
"Are you really sure?" Lu Changsheng glanced at Liu Qingfeng calmly.
This simple glance made Liu Qingfeng confess, "Senior Brother, in fact, I don't know how to do it."
This was the utter truth.
Lu Changsheng couldn't help but sigh.
A good-looking face couldn't bring them money.
At this time, a voice suddenly arrived.
"Excuse me, young master, my Master wonders if he has the honor of knowing you, he says that your demeanor deeply impressed him."
Lu Changsheng was surprised by this abrupt request.
