At this moment, Shen Yunhao could no longer sit still. He immediately went to Ma Tianyu's room across the corridor, knocked on the door, and shouted, "Brother Ma! Brother Ma!"
After a long while, the door slowly opened, revealing a drowsy, muscular man behind it.
"Brother Shen? What's wrong? It's the middle of the night... why aren't you sleeping..."
"Brother Ma, do you have the latest Jiangshan Jue Chroma?" Shen Yunhao asked directly.
"Huh? It's so late, why are you suddenly asking this?"
"Excuse me, Brother Ma, I need it urgently. Could you please get it for me now?"
"Hawoo—"
Ma Tianyu yawned, and seeing that Shen Yunhao's anxious expression seemed genuine, he went back to his room and took out a booklet.
"Here it is!"
"Thanks! I'll return it to you tomorrow!"
Shen Yunhao took the booklet and went straight back to his room.
After Shen Yunhao left, Ma Tianyu thought for a moment and revealed a teasing expression: "Are young people these days so thirsty, getting horny over fictional characters in the middle of the night... I'm afraid my book isn't clean!"
Shen Yunhao returned to his room, took a deep breath, and calmed his excited emotions.
Finally, he opened the book of rare colorings that had been handed to him and came to page seven...
After staring at the woman who was both familiar and unfamiliar for a long time, Shen Yunhao suddenly laughed.
He soon burst into laughter and collapsed onto the bed. After resting for a while, he stared at the woman in the portrait and chuckled foolishly for a while.
This was genuine happiness on his part...
"I really have to thank you, Brother Ma. Otherwise, I would never have known that there are people in this world who can be this adorable..."
...
For some reason, when Shen Yunhao returned the Absolute Chroma to Ma Tianyu the next day, he examined the booklet carefully for a long time before finally accepting it.
"Wait a minute, something's not right. Why is a page missing?"
Ma Tianyu frowned and stopped at the original seventh page: "There used to be a page about the Seventh Princess of the North Sea, Zhuli. Why did you tear it out?"
"Oh, this is my original copy. It was missing this page, so I swapped it with Brother Ma!"
"Hey? How could you do this? You take a bad one and try to exchange it for a good one. Do you even have any sense of reason?"
Shen Yunhao thought for a moment, then took out two spirit stones from his pocket and handed them to him.
"Brother Ma, consider this compensation. Don't look at Princess Qi for the next few days!"
"Huh? Why?"
"Because I want to watch it..."
Shen Yunhao rested his chin on his hand on the railing, smiled at the distance, and said, "And... I might get jealous."
"What are you getting worked up about over a piece of paper?! I suspect you actually tore that picture out! Where's that paper? Did you smash it? Is it in some trash can?"
"???"
...
Five days passed quickly, and early on the sixth day, the huge flying ship finally arrived at another Nine Provinces Tower.
The airship descended slowly and hovered beside a flattened mountain peak.
This place is located on a peak of Kongming Mountain within the territory of the Ten Thousand Beasts Dynasty.
"You're going to Lingyou Valley? I think I've heard of that place. It's deep in the mountains, far from any village or shop, and there are monsters that roam there. It's extremely dangerous. What are you going there for?"
Before disembarking, Ma Tianyu was puzzled when he heard Shen Yunhao's destination.
"Entrusted by someone to search for treasure?"
"Treasure hunting? What treasures could there be in that place?" Ma Tianyu scratched his head, and after a while said, "Never mind, since we've met by chance, I'll give you a treasure!"
"baby?"
Upon hearing the word "treasure," Shen Yunhao immediately became interested, but a moment later, he saw Ma Tianyu take a small round cloth bag out of the room and hand it to him.
I weighed it in my hand, and it seemed to contain some powder.
What is this?
"A specialty of the desolate continent: Scale Yellow Powder!"
"What's the use?"
"To expel insects."
"..."
Shen Yunhao's face darkened, and he curled his lip, saying, "I'd rather go buy some mosquito coils..."
"What's a mosquito coil?" Ma Tianyu patted his shoulder and chuckled, "Let me tell you, don't underestimate this thing. There are plenty of snakes, insects, and rodents in the mountains. Even with your Copper Skin Realm cultivation, you can't be completely unafraid. Sprinkle some of this on yourself at night, and I guarantee there won't be any snakes or insects within a hundred paces!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunhao raised an eyebrow: "Really? That impressive?"
"Brother, would I lie to you? In the southern border of the desolate continent, Gu magic is prevalent. This scale-yellow powder is the natural enemy of Gu worms. We always keep some on hand, just in case!"
Shen Yunhao had never heard of the existence of Gu techniques in this world of spiritual energy. He was very skeptical that those tiny Gu worms could really have an effect on powerful cultivators.
But it was still a kind gesture from the other party, so after carefully putting away the bag of scale powder, Shen Yunhao said goodbye to Ma Tianyu and disembarked alone.
After spending five days together, he developed a good impression of this straightforward man, which helped him dispel the loneliness he felt while wandering the world with no one to accompany him!
It's a pity there's no WeChat in this world, otherwise we could chat about the observation of the beauties on the list.
After disembarking, Shen Yunhao did not linger at the summit, but paid ten spirit stones to ride a flying beast down the mountain.
The flying beast took Shen Yunhao directly to a nearby town... Tengyuan City, the capital of the Ten Thousand Beasts Dynasty.
After entering the city, Shen Yunhao rushed to the nearest Tianbao Pavilion without stopping.
According to the little white dragon, Lingyou Valley is located in the Cangmang Mountains at the southernmost edge of the Beast Dynasty, very close to the Central Continent. It takes five or six days to get there by carriage from Tengyuan City...
So, Shen Yunhao directly rented a flying beast from Tianbao Pavilion.
That's right. As long as you can afford the spirit stones, you can rent a flying beast from Tianbao Pavilion for temporary travel. They will also provide a dedicated driver, so you can just ride with peace of mind.
Flying beasts are ten times faster than horse-drawn carriages. What would normally take five or six days can be covered in just half a day by flying beast, saving a lot of time on the road.
However, what Shen Yunhao didn't know was that when he rode his flying beast from Tianbao Pavilion, several disciples of Huayin Palace stood on the ground not far behind him, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"What the hell do we do? It just flew away. Are we supposed to rent a flying beast to follow it?"
The leading man at the front shook his head upon hearing this: "That's not very realistic... Renting a flying beast is expensive, and it can only carry one person. Who will pay for it with spirit stones? And who will go and assist?"
He watched Shen Yunhao disappear into the horizon, frowned and sighed: "Besides, even if someone were willing to go with us, they probably wouldn't be able to keep up if we set off now!"
...
After sitting on the flying beast for most of the day, Shen Yunhao finally arrived at Yunchuan City, the border city of the Ten Thousand Beasts Dynasty, before nightfall, when he felt his lower body becoming somewhat stiff from maintaining a single sitting position for so long.
