"I didn't expect that there would be such a prosperous city in a place like this."
In the sky, Chenghui stood on the flying sword and looked down.
In front of us is Bei'an City.
Cheng Ling curled her hands into the shape of a telescope, gazing at the scene below, and said, "Is this what you call prosperity? Even the most remote county town in our sect is more prosperous than this, right?"
"Chaoyun Province is not like Zhonglu Province. This land has just recovered from war and disaster."
"It's a pity that this land is about to be swallowed up by demons."
"The demons won't be able to gather together so quickly unless they are forced to move south. But the Immortal Alliance won't necessarily hand over this piece of land." Chenghui pinched a few hand seals and let the flying sword slowly descend.
If the Human Immortal Alliance allows the demons to occupy Chaoyun Province and let them recuperate here, then when they develop, they will inevitably pose a threat to Zhonglu Province, and then the war will extend.
Chenghui didn't intend to explain this key principle to his junior sister, after all, she would probably forget it even if he explained it.
"You're going to town?"
"Let's rest for a night first. I'm exhausted from traveling."
"Brother, your stamina is not good enough!"
"If you keep talking, I'll throw you down."
"Throw it if you can."
Upon hearing this, Chenghui grabbed Chengling's arm and pulled her away.
"ah--"
As Cheng Ling fell, her screams became quieter and quieter.
After counting to five silently, Chenghui suddenly accelerated and caught Chengling in his hands before she landed on the ground.
"Senior brother is harming fellow disciples! I will report this to Master!" Cheng Ling's legs were still weak but her mouth was still tough.
"Sue."
Seeing Chenghui was unmoved, Chengling was so angry that she threw herself on Chenghui's back.
"I'll bite you to death!"
She opened her mouth and bit Chenghui's shoulder.
Unfortunately, there was no feeling of biting flesh, only the pain of teeth hitting hard objects, which almost made her teeth fall out.
"Wooooooa ...
After being humiliated twice in a row, Cheng Ling burst into tears on the spot.
However, Chenghui still ignored it and just silently controlled the flying sword to land.
Chenghui is quite experienced in coaxing children.
Otherwise, the master would not have allowed him to bring Cheng Ling out for training alone.
"There are several Qi-refining cultivators in the city. The strange place is in the north, and it seems to be a village. I guess the city lord must be overwhelmed." Chenghui sighed.
"Then, Senior Brother, are you going to solve this weirdness?"
"Brother, I have good news for you. What we're looking for seems to be in that strange place." Cheng Hui looked at his junior sister, who didn't know what she was about to face. "Also, I won't be going alone. You have to come with me."
"I can't possibly go!"
"You can't not go."
"I'm having my period!"
"You are already in the middle stage of foundation building."
"Who stipulated that menstruation is forbidden during foundation building?"
"Where's the evidence?"
"Brother, I misjudged you. You are so vulgar and obscene!"
…
The two chatted casually, and took advantage of the night to land in an alley in Bei'an City. At night, Bei'an City would be closed, but as long as the identity was verified, people could enter and exit.
All you need to do is give the guard at the door a little favor.
Along the way, the two did not hear anyone talking about the unusual incidents, and the residents seemed to know nothing about it.
It's easy to understand that the rulers of this city naturally blocked the news in order to maintain stability and prevent residents from fleeing out of fear.
Another possibility is that the person who knew about the abnormality in the north was no longer able to pass on the news.
Chenghui found a restaurant and ordered a table full of delicious food.
While replenishing energy, I also inquired about some news.
Teahouses, restaurants, brothels, gambling houses and post stations are the places with the most people and are also the places where it is easiest to get information.
At this time, there were many people in the restaurant.
There was a table of guests who were dressed elegantly and were obviously from a wealthy family. The table was filled with plates and bowls, and most of each dish was left over. There was a wine jar on the ground covered with red paper with the word "grain" written on it.
There was a manual laborer sitting in the corner, wearing shorts and covered in sawdust. On the table was a bowl the size of a washbasin, filled with noodles and a few cloves of garlic next to it.
There was also a family of more than ten people, supporting the elderly, coming down from the second floor. They were all full of food and drink, and they must have just finished a family dinner.
What attracted the two men's attention the most was a woman in a dark green robe.
Her table was covered with various meats and empty bowls.
Although the woman is not strong, she has an amazing appetite.
Obviously a martial arts practitioner.
"Senior brother, you are committing adultery." Cheng Ling said in a voice louder than normal.
"What the hell, even just looking at me is considered lust, Caution? Besides, I'm not bald!"
Cheng Ling smiled and said slowly, "Brother, in the past, you wouldn't have given such a long explanation. It seems I was right."
"If you say one more word, we'll sleep on the street tonight."
"It's okay, look what this is?" Cheng Ling smiled and took out Cheng Hui's purse.
It's so boring to fly on the sword, so naturally I have to find something to do.
Chenghui snatched the purse away.
Cheng Ling was stunned, then she gritted her teeth and looked at Cheng Hui.
"Shopkeeper, I want the same noodles that the chef over there eats. Yes, two bowls, with a pound of meat in each bowl...Okay, let's have mutton."
After ordering the dishes, Chenghui unconsciously looked in the direction of the woman in the dark green robe.
"Haha! I caught you!" Cheng Ling slammed the table and pointed at Cheng Hui and shouted.
