When Sheng Ning woke up, she found herself lying in an extremely luxurious room.
She was only awake for a short time on the ferry, but she knew that this was not the room where she had rested before.
They landed?
Have we arrived in the Northern Regions?
Suppressing the questions in her mind, Sheng Ning threw off the covers and got up.
Before she could head towards the door, she heard a familiar voice outside.
"Junior Sister still hasn't woken up? It's been two days already, what's going on?"
Lu Qingan stood at the door of the room, first knocking on the door, then realizing that his junior sister had not yet woken up, he pushed the door open directly.
As he pushed the door open, he blinked in disbelief when he saw the delicate figure standing at the doorway.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Lu Jingshen, who was guarding the door, saw that he was not moving and thought that something had happened to his junior sister. He immediately squeezed next to him with a nervous expression.
When he saw his junior sister wake up, Lu Jingshen stiffened.
He reached out and tugged at Lu Qingan's sleeve, whispering, "Brother, pinch me, let me see if it hurts, or if I'm dreaming."
By then, Lu Qing'an had already come to his senses.
He looked at his younger brother with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot, and then pinched his waist hard.
"ah--"
The pig-like screams immediately filled the entire courtyard.
Lu Qing'an ignored her younger brother, who was jumping around beside her, clutching his waist.
Stepping into the room, Lu Qingan bent down, placed his hands on his thighs, and looked Sheng Ning in the eye.
"Awake? Do you feel unwell anywhere?"
When Sheng Ning woke up, her body was full of spiritual energy, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw her two senior brothers making a fuss. She felt perfectly fine.
She smiled and shook her head, her eyes full of laughter. "Second Senior Brother, have we arrived in the Northern Region yet?"
“Yes,” Lu Qingan nodded, “We arrived in the morning, we were lucky.”
After all, many cultivators perish at sea every year.
They were indeed lucky to be able to board the Qi family's ship in the Northern Region and successfully land in the Northern Region.
"So where are we?"
Sheng Ning looked around the room and only two words came to mind.
It's very luxurious.
Even if the Northern Region is very wealthy, a restaurant shouldn't be so rich as to use top-grade crystals as decorations and just casually display them on the counter, right?
Lu Jingshen, standing at the door, had just recovered from the excruciating pain.
He gritted his teeth and walked into the room, saying, "At the Qi family in the Northern Region."
I never expected that I would find myself in the Qi family of the Northern Region after waking up from a nap.
Sheng Ning still had the map given to him by the storyteller, but the map was drawn very hastily.
Even so, there is still a section of land on the map specifically marked as belonging to the Qi family.
This shows that the power of the Qi family in the Northern Region far exceeded their imagination.
Lu Jingshen took her small hand and sat her down at the round table. He poured her a cup of hot tea and then told her about their experiences on the ship over the past two days.
The power of the laser cannon that Sheng Ning newly refined exceeded everyone's expectations.
The white light, which lasted only a few seconds but still illuminated the sky, was seen by many people.
That day, as they boarded the ship carrying their junior sister, the Qi family's auctioneer found them.
"Although the Northern Region is rich in talented people and resources, it is mostly a place where strength determines the outcome."
"So after seeing that beam of light, Qi Wenyao came to us. He said he wanted to recruit us as guests of the Qi family."
Qi Wenyao was the auctioneer for the Qi family.
After logging in, they learned that Qi Wenyao was the eldest son of the Qi family, and his cultivation had reached the terrifying Integration Stage.
"Besides lacking weapon cultivators, the Northern Region also has a pitifully small number of alchemy cultivators. So, as soon as we disembarked, before we even got to see the scenery of the Northern Region, we were invited here by the head of the Qi family."
Lu Qing'an sat down on the other side of Sheng Ning.
He poured himself a cup of tea, and the warm tea moistened his lips, making him look even more stunning.
Sheng Ning never expected there to be such a connection.
The northern region is cold and snows almost year-round.
The vegetation here is sparse, and only cold-resistant and frost-resistant plants and animals can survive here.
In addition, the area is rich in spiritual energy and has a large number of natural treasures, so everyone has developed a pair of incredibly strong fists in order to compete for resources.
However, having more resources also brings troubles. Besides some natural treasures that can be absorbed by the human body, there are other treasures that cannot be absorbed.
The Qi family has its own experts in crafting artifacts and alchemy, but unfortunately their skills are not refined, and the spiritual artifacts and pills they produce are only barely passable.
Qi Wenyao, as the eldest son of the Qi family, naturally knew that Sheng Ning had forged a high-grade spiritual weapon on the ship.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have personally visited to invite Sheng Ning to be a guest advisor to the Qi family.
"Whether you do it or not, it's up to you, Junior Sister."
Even though the disciples of the Invincible Sect rarely went out, they understood the significance of guest elders.
Large families like the Qi family have to pay a considerable sum of money to their retainers every year.
So that when the Qi family is in trouble, they can ask the guest elder to come and help.
Sheng Ning wasn't in a hurry to nod or shake her head. Rather than deciding whether to become a guest of the Qi family, she wanted to go out and see the sights of the Northern Region.
She waved her small hand and laughed, "Senior brother, we haven't been to the Northern Region before."
"Instead of agonizing over whether or not to become a guest advisor, why not go out and take a look first?"
They had just landed in the morning when the head of the Qi family invited them to the Qi family residence; they hadn't even had a chance to leave yet.
Now that Sheng Ning has woken up, they finally have a chance to go out.
Lu Qingan and Lu Jingshen exchanged a glance, and the two brothers immediately hit it off.
"good!"
-
Unlike towns on the mainland, which have entire streets dedicated to buying and selling, this place is different.
Because of the cold weather and sparse population in the northern region, there weren't many people on the streets.
Recently, the sky cleared up, and when Sheng Ning took her two senior brothers out to the street, all they could see was a world covered in silver.
Snow is everywhere.
Everything was a vast expanse of white, and Sheng Ning's snow blindness almost flared up.
Few people were walking on the street, and the few who were there were all burly, with thick beards on their faces, looking quite fierce.
As the three siblings walked down the street, their different appearance and build caused people to stop and stare wherever they went.
After walking for a while, Sheng Ning finally saw a shop selling rare and precious treasures.
She pointed to the shop and said to her two senior brothers, "Senior brothers, shall we go in and take a look?"
The shop owner was standing at the door.
Seeing that Sheng Ning wanted to enter the store, the man immediately put on a fawning smile.
"You three aren't locals from the Northern Region, are you? The Northern Region has quite a few treasures. Would you like to come in and take a look?"
Guan Yunchuan had run out of high-grade crystals, so Sheng Ning thought she would buy him some.
Even though the shop owner's smile told her that this business wouldn't be easy, she still led her two senior apprentices inside.
As soon as the three entered, they were dazzled by the various rare and precious treasures displayed in the showcase.
The shop owner followed behind them, and when he saw them slightly widen their eyes, he knew that their prey had taken the bait.
He waved to the person behind him, who skillfully closed the shop door.
