"Let's go!"

Su Chen came to Nangong Xi, smiling slightly.

"Mm!"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Xi obediently nodded her head.

If someone from the Nangong Clan saw this scene, they would probably have their jaw drop!

The two of them turned and left, leaving Chu Yuan still wailing on the ground...

...

Walking onto the street outside, Nangong Xi held onto Su Chen's arm just as before, but even tighter than before!

Su Chen originally wanted to say something, but felt it would make her uncomfortable. After all, she was just a young girl, so he let it be.

After that, Nangong Xi took him around for a few more hours. Su Chen was fine, but Nangong Xi was extremely excited!

To her, there were rarely such moments of freedom!

In addition, Su Chen was by her side!

As it gradually got darker, Su Chen said:

"Xixi, shouldn't you go back now?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Xi took a glance at the sky and nodded reluctantly:

"Then I'll head back first."

She knew that if she didn't go back soon, her family would truly start worrying!

"If you ever want to find me, you can come to the inn where I'm staying."

Su Chen smiled seeing her reluctance.

"Really?!"

Hearing this, Nangong Xi's beautiful eyes immediately lit up, and her exquisite little face bloomed with joy!

"Of course!"

Su Chen told her the exact address and handed over a Sound Transmission Talisman:

"This is a Sound Transmission Talisman, if there's anything urgent, you can also send me a message!"

Seeing this Sound Transmission Talisman, Nangong Xi was stunned!

Even in her family, only a few core members were given these, to communicate promptly in important matters!

And Su Chen casually gave one to her!

"Mm!"

Feeling sweet inside, Nangong Xi carefully stowed the Sound Transmission Talisman away!

After they parted ways, Su Chen returned to the inn!

He immediately took a Momentary Elixir and began cultivating his spiritual power!

He had long decided to focus on certain areas next!

One was spiritual power, as he hoped to reach the eightieth level soon, because then he could perform Divine Sense Disturbance!

Currently, he was twenty-two levels away from the eightieth level, which wasn't too far, but not too close either!

Apart from spiritual power, there was the Medical Path!

Even though his expertise in the Medical Path was already extraordinary, the Chapter of Medical in the Laws Forbidden Tome undoubtedly opened a new door!

While it was impossible to fully understand it all at once, he needed to build a good foundation!

Considering his talent in Martial Arts, he was confident he could achieve this within a certain time!

His focus on the "Chapter of Medical" was partly due to his personal interest and partly for his eccentric master!

After all, he had no clues about the Spring of Life yet!

If he really couldn't find the Spring of Life, perhaps he could find another way!

Of course, he would first try his best to locate the Spring of Life!

During a conversation with his master, even though his master said it was just a legend, Su Chen felt that deep down his master longed for it!

The reason his master said that might have been to prevent Su Chen from taking risks for him!

Besides spiritual power and the "Chapter of Medical," there was also the study of the second move of the Dayan Sword Technique!

Though he had vast Star Energy and a Divine Bone as his trump cards, he felt it was too monotonous!

Of course, other than these, he couldn't neglect his own cultivation either!

As for the Divine Skills "Thousand Hand Seal" and "Wind Shadow Step," and Inscriptions, he could only set them aside for now, as they required too much attention!

Time flew by, and six or seven days passed, during which his spiritual power increased by one level!

He also spent some time studying the "Chapter of Medical" from the Laws Forbidden Tome, gaining a deeper understanding of its content!

Moreover, he dedicated some time to comprehending the second move of the "Dayan Sword Technique"!

The second move of the "Dayan Sword Technique" was evidently more profound than the first, and fully understanding it was no easy feat, requiring more time!

Regarding his own cultivation realm, these few days didn't offer enough time for improvement!

On this day, while studying the "Chapter of Medical," his Sound Transmission Talisman suddenly vibrated!

It was a message from Fang Hongtai!

He said that Miss An had arrived in the Imperial City and wanted to meet him!

"An Ruyan?"

Su Chen's lips curled into a smile.

He hadn't seen her for a long time, and he occasionally missed her!

So, he left the inn and, upon reaching the street, asked someone for the address of the Yuntong Commerce Guild!

Just like in the Shenfeng Dynasty, the Yuntong Commerce Guild was a well-known place in the Imperial City, and he readily found out!

Immediately, he set off towards the Yuntong Commerce Guild, taking over an hour to get there!

On one hand, he wasn't in a hurry and didn't speed up; on the other hand, this Imperial City was enormously large!

This was evident from the population alone, as it was said that the number of people in the Imperial City surpassed that of the entire Shenfeng Dynasty!

Upon reaching the Yuntong Commerce Guild, a woman wearing a long dress, similar to the staff at the Shenfeng Dynasty's guild, approached!

However, the staff in the Imperial City, in both clothing and appearance, surpassed those in the Shenfeng Dynasty!

Which made sense, as those other guilds were just branches compared to the one in the Imperial City!

"Sir, may I ask what you're looking for?"

Despite Su Chen's plain and even shabby attire, the attractive staff member showed no contempt, kindly asking, creating a refreshing atmosphere!

"I wish to see the person in charge."

Su Chen said calmly.

The staff was momentarily stunned upon hearing this!

She then continued:

"May I ask what business you have with our manager? I can inform them for you!"

Su Chen handed her the Identity Crystal Plate given to him by An Ruyan:

"Give this to them, they'll understand!"

The employee took it with curiosity, not recognizing it, but still said:

"Please wait a moment."

Though she said this, she didn't believe this young man deserved the manager's personal attention!

Su Chen seemed to perceive her thoughts but said nothing, just kept a faint smile as he watched her leave.

He began to wander around!

There was no doubt that some of the items here couldn't be matched by anything in the Shenfeng Dynasty!

Even the items on the first floor were hardly seen throughout the Shenfeng Dynasty!

Yet these things no longer impressed Su Chen!

Whether it was Cultivation Techniques or weapons, what he acquired in the Ancient Secret Realm far surpassed these in quantity and value!
