At the same time, Fu Cheng and the seventh prince, Jing Yuan, who had left before Lu Ming, were already several miles away.
They were heading toward the East Gate of Green Mountain City.
Because Green Mountain City was close to the Center Sect, there were restrictions set around the city.
Under the restrictions, the cultivation practitioners couldn't ride on their weapons.
Jing Yuan and Fu Cheng had strolled to the city gate.
"Stop."
When they were about to reach the city gate and were near an inn, Fu Cheng, wearing a black robe, raised his palm and signalled Jing Yuan to stop.
As they were outside the capital, Fu Cheng naturally assumed the role of assessing the surrounding for hidden dangers.
"Seventh prince, do you plan to take some magic pills to break through the state after you return to the capital, or do you plan to choose a safe place to break through the state first?"
Fu Cheng lowered his voice and asked Jing Yuan beside him.
"It's better to wait until we return to the capital."
"The news of Green Mountain City's star-picking pavilion will still take some time to spread in the capital, so there's no rush. It's naturally safer to break through in the palace."
On this trip to Green Mountain City, Jing Yuan's state of mind also gradually returned to normal.
He had struggled with repressed emotions earlier on.
But now that he had the Foundation Establishment pills and marrow cleansing pills, it could be said that he had a huge trump card.
Whether it was his cultivation path in the future or the fight for the throne, he was full of confidence.
"Okay."
Seeing that Jing Yuan had made his decision, Fu Cheng no longer hesitated. He gave up on the idea of staying in the city tonight and prepared to leave quickly.
But as he looked around at the prosperous market and the people coming and going, an obscure and complicated feeling suddenly rose in Fu Cheng's heart.
In the next moment, among the people who were walking past, a figure suddenly seemed to come toward them.
It was Batu, who had used sorcery to hide his cultivation aura!
Ever since these two people left the star-picking pavilion, he had been following them all the way here.
At the same time, he knew that once he left the city, it would be useless to hide his cultivation in the vast wilderness.
And now was the best time to make a move!
The moment his cultivation erupted, Batu did not hesitate to use sorcery that would cost him fifty years of life.
Nightmare invasion!
As for his target, it was naturally the middle-aged guard who had erupted with the cultivation of the Golden Core Stage during the auction today!
