"Is this Qixue City? There are so many people here."
Accompanied by Feng Wuhen, Di Jiu and his companions traveled all night and finally arrived safely in Qixue City at noon the next day.
Standing in front of the gate of Qixue City, Ye Lan's eyes were full of little stars.
"Ye Lan, restrain yourself. Don't act like an inexperienced person. You're embarrassing me and Brother Mo."
Quietly tugging at Ye Lan's sleeve, Ye Xue whispered in Ye Lan's ear.
"I understand, Brother Ye Xue."
Ye Lan nodded with a slight blush on her face, not knowing whether it was because of what Ye Xue said or because Ye Xue whispered something in her ear.
Accompanied by Feng Wuhen, Di Jiu and his companions registered at the city gate and successfully entered Qixue City.
"Brother Mo, do you really not need me to help you arrange accommodation?"
After entering Qixue City, Feng Wuhen had to say goodbye and leave because he needed to return to the Feng family first.
When he was leaving, he planned to arrange a courtyard for Di Jiu and his companions as their temporary residence, but as soon as he expressed his good intention, Di Jiu politely rejected it.
He could make friends with Feng Wuhen, but before figuring out the situation between the three major families in Qixue City and the City Lord's Mansion, he didn't want to label himself as a member of the Feng family.
"Since Brother Mo insists, I won't nag you any further." Seeing that Di Jiu insisted on finding accommodation on his own, Feng Wuhen said no more. He took out a jade token from his bosom and handed it to Di Jiu, saying, "Brother Mo, this is the Feng family's identity jade token. As long as you are in Qixue City, it can help you avoid 80% of the trouble. Although you may not be able to use it, this is a gift from me as a brother. I hope you will not refuse it."
"In that case, I'll take it."
Putting the jade token in his arms, Di Jiu formally clasped his fists and began to say goodbye to Feng Wuhen.
"Ice and Snow Inn? Why is it this inn again?"
Looking at the familiar name on the inn's plaque, Ye Xue couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"You little brat, what do you know? This Ice and Snow Inn is owned by the Bing family, one of the three major families in Qixue City. It's a bit expensive, but it's safe."
After glaring at Ye Xue who looked a little disgusted, Ye Qing began to explain to Di Jiu.
"It doesn't matter. It's just an inn. Let's stay here for now."
Looking up at the word "ice" on the plaque, Di Jiu nodded slightly.
After Feng Wuhen left, Ye Qing took Di Jiu and the other three directly to the inn where he usually stayed, the Ice and Snow Inn.
The Ice and Snow Inn is a direct property of the Bing family in Qixue City. As long as it is within the Ice and Snow Inn, basically no vicious fights will occur.
"Mr. Mo, I'm going to take the three of them to Qixue Academy to register first. Are you planning to go with us or...?"
After arranging the room and the gifts, Ye Qing clasped his fists towards Di Jiu and said.
"I'm not interested in registering. I'll go shopping alone first. I'll go with you guys when the Qixue Academy officially starts its entrance exam tomorrow."
Di Jiu waved his hand gently and refused to report to Qixue Academy with Ye Qing and the others.
Having just arrived in Qixue City, he had to first investigate the basic situation of Qixue City.
"Ye Xue, Ye Feng, Ye Lan, let's go."
Seeing that Di Jiu didn't want to report with them, Ye Qing immediately called Ye Xue and the other two to go out and head towards the location of Qixue Academy.
Qixue City East District, Feng Family.
After parting with Di Jiu and his group, Feng Wuhen had an unimpeded journey and walked straight into the hall of the Feng family.
Sitting in the main seat in the hall, a middle-aged man with a dignified face was tapping the handle of the chair lightly, wondering what he was thinking about.
"Father, I brought back the Snow Cloud Grass."
Kneeling on one knee and taking out the Snow Cloud Grass, Feng Wuhen lowered his head and said to the middle-aged man.
"Very good, you finally lived up to my expectations." The middle-aged man glanced calmly at the Snow Cloud Grass in Feng Wuhen's hand and said in a deep voice: "From today on, Fengyun Restaurant will be handed over to you. I hope you won't disappoint the Great Elder and others."
"Don't worry, father. I know." A cold light flashed in his eyes. Feng Wuhen looked up at the middle-aged man and said, "Father, haven't the elders gone a little too far?"
"That's fine. I'm currently on the verge of a breakthrough. If they act a little bit now, it'll be a good chance for me to cover up. Once I successfully break through to the Venerable Realm, I'll have plenty of ways to deal with them."
Shaking his head slightly, the middle-aged man stood up, walked to Feng Wuhen, and pulled him up.
"Father, I met a strange person during this trip."
After completely escaping from the encounter with Emperor Jiu, Feng Wuhen asked the middle-aged man doubtfully, "Father, what realm of warrior do you think this Brother Mo is?"
"Killing the Snow Cloud Beast King with one sword strike isn't surprising. Any Grandmaster-level warrior could do it. But you just said he didn't use any spiritual power?"
After walking back and forth a few times, the middle-aged man looked at Feng Wuhen seriously.
"I'm sure he didn't use any spiritual power."
Nodding firmly, Feng Wuhen spoke to the middle-aged man affirmatively.
"There are two possibilities. One is that his cultivation level is extremely high, comparable to my father's current level. The other is that his cultivation level is slightly lower than mine, but he is extremely skilled in body training techniques and has extremely strong physical strength."
"Whichever it is, it shows that this Moye is not simple."
Hearing Feng Wuhen's firm words, the middle-aged man was silent for a moment and then stated the two possibilities he thought of.
"Impossible! Is Brother Mo really that strong? Judging from his age, he's only a year or two older than me."
As soon as the middle-aged man's guess came out, Feng Wuhen exclaimed in surprise.
What kind of concept is it to be a late-stage or peak-stage grandmaster who is of the same age as you?
Not to mention their small Qixue City, even in Wenjun City, which is full of powerful people, such terrifying monsters are extremely rare.
"Only a year or two older than you?! Are you sure?!"
When the middle-aged man heard Feng Wuhen say that Di Jiu was only one or two years older than him, he was shocked. He grabbed Feng Wuhen's shoulders and asked with a shocked look on his face.
"Father!"
Feng Wuhen pointed at his shoulder with a painful expression, feeling like crying but unable to do so.
I didn't get hurt during the trial mission, but when I returned home I was almost pinched by my father accidentally. What kind of thing is this?
"I'm sorry, I lost my composure as a father."
Patting Feng Wuhen's shoulder embarrassedly, the middle-aged man straightened his sleeves and restored himself to his usual dignified state.
"Father, is it possible that Brother Mo came from there?"
Gently rubbing his swollen and painful shoulders, Feng Wuhen quietly pointed to the sky and spoke in a low voice.
"What do you mean? He's from the Imperial City?!"
After hearing Feng Wuhen's guess, the middle-aged man's newly recovered dignity disappeared again.
