Qin Zhiruo listened quietly, nodding her mischievous little head from time to time.
Chen Tianwen emphasized the situation in the Xuan Tian Realm and instructed Qin Zhiruo to make sure everything was arranged in Bu Huo City in preparation for receiving the people from the Xuan Tian Realm who were ascending to immortality.
Qin Zhiruo just nodded without saying a word, her eyes darting around, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking in that little head.
When Chen Tianwen brought up the matter of his being sealed again, Qin Zhiruo finally spoke to Chen Tianwen:
“Brother Tianwen, even if your cultivation is sealed, I believe you will still be able to win first place in the Realm War.”
Seeing Qin Zhiruo's obedient appearance, Chen Tianwen couldn't help but pat her head, which made Qin Zhiruo pout and push Chen Tianwen's hand away.
"Brother Tianwen."
Qin Zhiruo looked at Chen Tianwen with a hint of resentment in her eyes, and said in a languid tone, even with a touch of grievance:
"Are you getting a little too engrossed in the Xuan Tian Realm and the Chen Bi Secret Realm and forgetting about home?"
Chen Tianwen felt a chill in his heart. So this little girl was jealous. No wonder she was so quiet today.
Chen Tianwen patted Qin Zhiruo's head and said comfortingly:
“Those are Brother Tianwen’s family, and they will be Zhiruo’s family too! Brother Tianwen may have to leave the Xuanxian Realm in the future, and who knows when he will see his family again…”
Chen Tianwen's tone, almost like coaxing a child, made Qin Zhiruo burst into laughter. She playfully scolded Chen Tianwen:
"Brother Tianwen, you're so annoying. I'm not a child anymore, do you have to coax me like this?"
Chen Tianwen smiled and gave Qin Zhiruo a big kiss on her face.
In the past, Chen Tianwen's behavior would have made Qin Zhiruo blush, but today Qin Zhiruo stared intently at Chen Tianwen.
This made Chen Tianwen feel a little guilty, wondering what strange ideas Qin Zhiruo's mischievous little head would suddenly come up with.
"Brother Tianwen, I want one too..."
Qin Zhiruo's face flushed red because of the lingering rosy hue, making her already stunningly beautiful face even more delicate and shy, which made Chen Tianwen's heart flutter.
Moreover, Qin Zhiruo's languid tone was right next to Chen Tianwen's ear, and the girl's unique fragrance was as sweet as orchids.
...
Chen Tianwen never imagined that one day he would be forced into a situation by someone else.
Qin Zhiruo's initiative almost overwhelmed Chen Tianwen.
Perhaps it was Qin Zhiruo's jealousy of Hua Qingyue and Xia Anyu that made her work so hard.
It wasn't until the third day that Qin Zhiruo released Chen Tianwen, gave him a big kiss on the cheek, and then left the secret room.
Chen Tianwen finally had the opportunity to send a telepathic message to Bai Qingsong, instructing him on how to receive the ascendant from the Xuan Tian Realm.
Chen Tianwen saw no one in Bu Huo City except Qin Zhiruo and Bai Qingsong. After Bai Qingsong left, Chen Tianwen sat quietly in the secret room, waiting for Xuanyuan Shengjun.
Qin Zhiruo did not reappear until Chen Tianwen left. Chen Tianwen shook his head. This was for the best. At least the sorrow of parting would be slightly lessened without seeing Qin Zhiruo.
Xuanyuan Shengjun once again brought Chen Tianwen to the Jiecheng Inn in the Red Cloud Domain. Chen Tianwen checked the time outside and realized that only a few hours had passed since he left the Nine Heavens.
It's already dark, and Chen Tianwen will set off for the Endless Sands tomorrow when dawn breaks.
Xuanyuan Shengjun didn't instruct Chen Tian to ask anything more and simply disappeared from the inn.
At this moment, Chen Tianwen also received a telepathic message from Qin Zhiruo.
"Brother Tianwen, I didn't see you off. It's because I didn't want you to see me crying."
"However, Brother Tianwen, don't worry, I have already brought people out to help you conquer territory."
"I believe that by the time Brother Tianwen returns, I will have conquered the entire Changtang Region for him. Hehe, isn't this young lady amazing?"
"Brother Tianwen, you must take good care of yourself, work hard in your cultivation, and don't get involved with any more women. Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook next time we meet."
Chen Tianwen could tell that although Qin Zhiruo tried her best to suppress it, there was still a faint sob in her voice.
I imagine the little girl must be feeling terrible.
Chen Tianwen sighed and tossed and turned in bed.
...
The next day, Chen Tianwen arrived at the meeting point early.
The meeting point Wang Chong mentioned was only a hundred miles away from the endless desert.
The place was also very desolate. Apart from a narrow, ten-meter-wide gravel road winding around, there were no other buildings to be seen.
Only the yellow sand filled the sky, and with a gust of wind, it stirred up a sandstorm that blotted out the sun.
Wang Chong was already standing by the roadside waiting, with a hunched old man standing next to him!
Seeing Chen Tianwen approaching, Wang Chong began waving from afar.
Wang Chong was somewhat taken aback when he saw that Chen Tianwen's strength had actually dropped to the early stage of Golden Immortal after only three days, but he quickly recovered.
Chen Tianwen originally joined the team as an alchemist, so whether he is a Golden Immortal at the peak or the early stage of Golden Immortal, it has little impact on the team.
As long as Chen Tianwen can refine elixirs for the team, he will be an indispensable member of the team. As for facing ferocious spirits and beasts, the team's Grand Luo Golden Immortals will naturally step in.
After greeting Wang Chong, Chen Tianwen's gaze fell on a lean old man next to Wang Chong.
Although the lean old man was hunched over, his eyes gleamed with a sharp light, and his strength had reached the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
The lean old man also saw Chen Tianwen's arrival and came over to greet him, saying:
"Young Master Chen, I am Xiang Feng, an elder of the Sand Sea Guild! I am also the leader of this expedition across the Endless Sand Sea!"
Although Xiang Feng was a master at the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, he did not look down on Chen Tianwen because of his early stage Golden Immortal realm cultivation. On the contrary, he was very polite in his words.
Chen Tianwen quickly returned the greeting and said to Xiang Feng:
"This journey across the endless desert will all depend on Elder Xiang's care!"
Xiang Feng nodded, very satisfied with Chen Tianwen's attitude.
Having grown accustomed to the arrogant demeanor of those alchemists, Chen Tianwen seemed like a breath of fresh air among them.
Not only did he speak politely, but he was also courteous to everyone, showing no airs about his status as an alchemist. This greatly increased Xiang Feng's goodwill towards Chen Tianwen.
Wang Chong also said to Chen Tianwen:
"Young Master Chen, please wait a moment. It's not yet the agreed time, and the rest of the team hasn't arrived yet."
Chen Tianwen nodded. He had indeed arrived a little early, but he didn't mind. He found a rock by the roadside, sat on it, and waited quietly.
