night.
The full moon hangs high in the sky.
Even at night, Shenzhou City remains bustling with activity, its streets teeming with traffic, and lanterns hanging up, illuminating the entire city.
The Wind and Rain Inn.
Inside the room.
Ning Tian sat cross-legged.
Although the two searched all day, they still couldn't find the two missing Shadow Swift Horses, but they did manage to learn a general overview of Shenzhou City.
Shenzhou City.
The city center is a forbidden area.
No outsiders are allowed to enter.
That was the imperial palace of the supreme divine kingdom.
The venue for tomorrow's Tianbao Auction will be the Tianbao Pavilion in the west of Shenzhou City.
This is the Heavenly Treasure Holy Land, expanding its influence outwards.
"Hopefully, the two medicinal herbs I need will be available at tomorrow's auction. I can't have come all this way for nothing."
A sigh.
"However, it wasn't a complete waste of time. At the very least, I obtained the Wind and Thunder Dao."
On the bed, Ning Tian's lips curled up, his eyes shining brightly.
He slightly raised his hand, and a blue dragon swam between his fingers.
This is the Way of Wind and Thunder.
Thunder transforms all things, and wind shapes their nature!
...
...
Shenzhou City, the forbidden area of the imperial palace.
Yingyue Pavilion.
Princess Yueling and the old woman sat in the main hall.
"Master Nanyan, have you found any information about that Marshal Ning?" Princess Yueling asked.
The old woman shook her head. "No, no matter how we investigate, we can't find any information about that Ning Shuai. He's not even mentioned in any of the major sects."
"It's as if it appeared out of thin air."
"No?"
Upon hearing this, Princess Yueling frowned and asked suspiciously, "Could it be that it comes from one of those hidden sects?"
"That's impossible."
The old woman rejected it without even thinking.
She shook her head. "Those reclusive sects will only appear when the Ancient Path to Godhood appears. Otherwise, those old guys won't let their disciples out."
"Is that so..."
Princess Yueling frowned slightly. "Let's leave it at that for now. Have you found the address?"
"Yes, I'll stay at the Wind and Rain Inn."
"Okay, I'll pay you a visit when I have time."
Princess Yue Ling narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, "He is the only person in all these years to have reached the eighth level. Since he can reach the eighth level, he can probably go to that place too."
"It shouldn't be a problem."
The old woman nodded.
"Um."
"By the way, Master Nanyan, where is that girl Youqin?"
At that moment, Princess Yueling thought of something.
"That girl?"
The old woman smiled, then shook her head helplessly: "That girl, she finally got to leave the sect once, who knows where she's off running off to."
"Master, you mustn't speak ill of others in secret."
Just then, a playful voice rang out from outside the attic.
Then, a young girl slowly walked in!
It was the same girl from earlier that day who stole the two Swift Wind Horses!
"Junior Sister Youqin, did you go out and have fun all day?" Princess Yueling looked at the girl with a smile, her eyes full of affection.
This is her youngest junior sister.
Of course, they should be pampered.
"Giggle."
"I didn't play all day."
Youqin chuckled and then threw herself into Princess Yueling's arms.
"Senior Sister Yueling, I miss you so much! My senior brothers are so mean, they keep forcing me to practice this and that every day!"
Youqin frowned, looking aggrieved.
"good."
Princess Yue Ling pulled her into her arms and chuckled, "Don't worry, when I return to the sect, I'll definitely beat them up for you."
"Hehe, my senior sister is the best."
Youqin chuckled.
"ah!"
Suddenly, Youqin seemed to have discovered some secret.
He exclaimed in surprise.
"Senior sister, you seem to have grown quite a bit in the past few months."
"You little brat, you're just talking nonsense."
A blush crept onto Princess Yueling's pretty face, her eyes filled with shame and indignation as she glared at Youqin.
"I'm not lying!"
"I can definitely feel it, it's so, so big!"
Youqin made a gesture very seriously.
Seeing this, Princess Yueling sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation.
"By the way, senior sister."
Just then, Youqin seemed to remember something, a sly glint in her eyes, "I brought you a gift!"
"Gift?"
Princess Yueling was taken aback.
"right!"
Youqin nodded excitedly, and then a faint light flashed on the storage ring on her finger.
A jade pot appeared in his hand.
Then, a fragrant aroma wafted out.
"Wow, it smells so good."
A glint of light flashed in Princess Yueling's eyes.
Even the old woman who was fasting was drooling at the smell of this aroma.
"Youqin, what is this?"
Princess Yue Ling couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe, it's just stewed horse meat with Ganoderma lucidum!"
Youqin smiled mysteriously, seemingly very confident in her dish.
"Senior sister, my dish is definitely better than anything made by the chefs in your palace!"
"This is made with the meat of the Shadow Swift Horse, it's sure to taste great!"
"Afterimage Swift Wind Horse?"
Upon hearing this, Princess Yueling paused for a moment, looking at her suspiciously: "I remember, isn't this Shadow Swift Wind Horse quite rare? How did you get it?"
"Uh... I, I hunted it!"
Youqin stammered and quickly tried to brush it off.
Princess Yueling didn't press the matter further, but teased, "I never expected you, little girl, to become a horse hunter."
"whee."
A sly glint flashed in Youqin's eyes.
Then she urged, "Senior sister, and Master, you should try it quickly."
