Time passed unknowingly as the two chatted, and when it was dusk, they finally arrived at Qianyao Kingdom.
Qianyao Kingdom is called a country, but in fact it is only slightly larger than Qingyun City, and this small area is carefully divided into three capitals.
The place they are now in is the capital of Qianyao Kingdom, where the royal family is located.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they landed, they were surrounded by people.
But this is normal. Anyone who descends from the sky riding a spiritual beast similar to an elk will probably be watched because it looks too conspicuous.
After Gu Qingze realized it, he touched Xiaobai's head and put it into the beast-taming bag.
Now, although some people still focused their attention on them, it was obvious that there were fewer of them, and most people were busy with their own things.
After all, although immortal cultivators are rare, they are not unheard of. Most of the people who gathered around were curious about Xiaobai, the spiritual beast.
In fact, in this world, most people have spiritual roots, but the quality of their spiritual roots is too poor. Basically, they have five or six spiritual roots, and some even have seven or eight spiritual roots.
Of course, if one wants to practice, it is not impossible, but with spiritual roots so poor, it would take at least twenty years to draw Qi into the body, let alone practice Qi.
You must know that only after reaching the Golden Core Stage, every improvement in cultivation will increase one's lifespan. Before that, one's lifespan is no different from that of an ordinary person.
The quality of their spiritual roots is too poor. Perhaps they will not be able to break through to the Qi training stage even after practicing for their entire lives until they die. Then what is the point of practicing? So the people who have awakened low-level spiritual roots simply pretend that they have never awakened their spiritual roots and do what they should do.
Only those who have awakened four or more spiritual roots will consider whether to choose the path of cultivating immortals. Others will not even think about it.
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao looked at the endless stream of people coming and going on the streets. Although they wanted to take a stroll around, they no longer had the leisure time when they thought about the rebellious spirit beast that had not been dealt with yet.
"After we resolve this matter, let's go around and have a look."
Gu Qingze said with a smile that although he accepted the mission only in order to leave Qingyun Sect, since he had accepted the mission, he had to do it well.
Otherwise, when we think about the fact that the rebellious spirit beasts have not been dealt with, and that it will interfere with the normal lives of more people, we won’t have much fun even if we go to play.
"Well, let's quickly find out the situation and resolve this matter."
Chu Lingxiao nodded.
Unexpectedly, they had just taken a few steps when they saw a familiar figure and froze in place for a moment.
"Shangguan Nana?"
Gu Qingze shouted uncertainly.
Although the original novel says that Shangguan Nana is a princess of a small country, it does not specify which country it is. So is she the princess of Qianyao Kingdom?
Of course, it's also possible that her trip wasn't over yet and she just happened to visit this country...
However, Gu Qingze felt that this was unlikely, because Shangguan Nana in front of him was wearing luxurious clothes and was accompanied by two maids. She did not look like she was out for a trip. She must have returned to her country after the trip.
I didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence. I just took a task and met an acquaintance.
"How dare you! Who are you to address the princess by her name?"
The maid next to Shangguan Nana frowned and said dissatisfiedly.
"Xiao He, there's no need to be like this. They are friends I made while traveling..."
Shangguan Nana stopped Xiaohe from speaking and looked at Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao with a complicated expression in her eyes.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
When Gu Qingze looked at her, he was a little stunned.
When they first met in Qingyun City, he clearly remembered Shangguan Nana's bright and eye-catching red dress and her free-spirited and wanton personality.
However, as time went by, when I saw her again, she had become more mature, and her girlish look had faded. She looked more like a princess...
However, is such a change really a good thing?
"Are you guys here for your honeymoon? You really know how to choose an address. If I hadn't remembered that I hadn't told you where I was from before, I would have thought you came here on purpose to piss me off."
Shangguan Nana looked at the two of them and teased.
"The princess is joking."
Gu Qingze remembered that at that time, in order to drive Shangguan Nana away, they deliberately angered her and pretended that they were already together. He seemed to find it funny and smiled involuntarily.
"Why are you calling me princess? Isn't it just because you're in Rome and follow the Romans?"
Shangguan Nana doesn't seem to like this title.
"Then what should I call you? Shangguan or Nana?"
Gu Qingze said jokingly.
"Don't use such ambiguous words. My husband will be jealous if he finds out."
Shangguan Nana said this with a gentle smile.
"Do you have a consort?"
Gu Qingze recalled that in the original novel, Shangguan Nana didn't find a lover who was devoted to her until the very end. He didn't expect that after his intervention, Shangguan Nana found her own happiness earlier, which was a good thing.
"Is it unusual? Women are usually supposed to get married at fifteen or sixteen, but I'm a princess, so I have some privileges. That's why I didn't get a husband until I was twenty-three. People my age already have children."
Shangguan Nana thought of something when she said this.
"I used to think that having children was a very difficult thing, and I even resisted it. But after I met Ah Xu, I even started looking forward to it."
"Really? Then... congratulations, and I wish you happiness."
Gu Qingze looked at the girl in front of him with her longing for a bright future and didn't know what to say.
For most people, cultivating immortals is just a rumor. Wars, famines, monsters rampaging, evil cultivators killing people, all kinds of factors have seriously affected the lives and safety of ordinary people.
In this context, ordinary people could only live to be 50 or 60 years old at most. In order to ensure the population, women were forced to marry and have children early. So Shangguan Nana was indeed much luckier than other women, but it was not much better.
"Since you're here for your honeymoon, how about this? I'm familiar with the terrain of Qianyao Country and I'll introduce it to you."
After listening to Gu Qingze's congratulations, Shangguan Nana stopped talking and took the initiative to make a suggestion.
She never regretted anything she had done in the past, including pursuing Chu Lingxiao. Although she almost witnessed a "live pornographic show", her philosophy of life was to do it if she wanted to do it and leave no regrets. If she hadn't tried, how would she know if she had a chance and whether she could do it?
