Chapter 515 Grandmaster, which direction should we go?

No wonder his master didn't give him face; Yao Changhao couldn't sit still. He was more suited to running a shop.

"However," the grandmaster changed the subject, "you must not forget to cultivate while running your shops here. You must know that only with great strength can you protect the spirit stones you earn."

"Yes, I will follow Master's teachings!"

After a while, the grandmaster stood up and said, "Alright, before the city gates close, Xiao Chuan and I will not stay any longer. We're going out to travel around for a few months at the shortest, and a year or two at the longest. You all be careful here, and don't be hasty in your actions. Your personal safety is the most important thing, remember that!"

"Grandmaster, we have remembered."

The group saw their master and Ye Jingchuan off at the city gate.

Once they were out of sight, Wen Qikang muttered to himself, "They've all gone out to travel. When will we be able to go out too?"

"That's right," Yao Changhao said enviously. "When will it be our turn?"

Standing to the side, Ren Jinping said confidently, "I believe that day will come. When our cultivation is higher, we will go out too, right, second brother?"

After saying that, he urged the guys beside him, "Let's go back and start cultivating. Since we're closed for three days, I'm going to cultivate for three days and three nights straight. Uncle, is that alright?"

Wen Qikang, who was mentioned, twitched the corner of his mouth and thought to himself that young people are just bold and impulsive. Do you think you can break through your realm by cramming for a few days and nights?

That's really wishful thinking, but their words are strangely inspiring and comforting.

Yao Changhao clung to Wen Qikang's neck and said jokingly, "San'er, let's go back and cultivate. When we're free, we can sell some goods. When the time is right, we can travel together."

"Okay, brother-in-law is right."

So, the group of people headed towards the Wen family's residence.

......

The skies above the outskirts of Xingyu City.

"Grandmaster, which direction should we go?" Ye Jingchuan asked, turning his head.

The grandmaster took out the Soul-Nourishing Wood and asked, "Celestial Master, what do you say?"

After a while, the Celestial Master's figure floated out from the Soul-Nourishing Wood, his voice faint as he said, "Head north to Yuanling Continent. The Xiye Secret Realm will open soon. You, take me there. Don't worry, I'll guide the old dragon."

"Alright, I'll listen to the Celestial Master."

With a low groan, the old dragon raised its head, swayed its body, and soared straight into the sky.

......

Yuanling Continent, Hongxiao City.

Since the three Wen siblings moved into the luxurious stone courtyard, they have devoted themselves to cultivation. Every few days, they would go out for a stroll and buy any rumors about the secret realm or jade slips or books left by previous cultivators to study together.

Brother Eagle and Grandpa Turtle stayed peacefully in the spirit beast room to cultivate. Just kidding, the spiritual energy in the cave was so concentrated, how could they waste it!

Not only those two, but Wenwen also released several small animals from the spirit beast room, such as the wolf cub and the deer. Xianbao would occasionally come out for a stroll, but their activity area was limited to the stone courtyard.

However, Aying couldn't stay idle. She would go out every other day, leaving early and returning late, sometimes bringing back gossip from the city, and sometimes news from the Misty Forest.

That day, Aying didn't return until late at night.

Hearing its flapping wings, Wenwen opened her sleepy eyes, yawned, and said, "Aying, why are you so late today? Did you have news?"

Aying remained silent, head bowed, and took small, measured steps as she slowly approached Wenwen, saying, "Master, why don't you set off tomorrow to keep watch over there? I think the secret realm is about to open."

When Wenwen was woken up in the middle of the night, she really wanted to yell at it, "I want what I think, not what you think!"

Fortunately, she managed to control herself in the end. She raised her hands and rubbed her face vigorously to regain her composure before sending a telepathic message to her two older brothers: "Big brother, second brother, come to the living room."

After saying that, she resigned herself to her fate, got up, got out of bed, and walked towards the living room. Ah Ying took off and landed on her shoulder.

Soon the three siblings gathered in the living room.

Wenwen yawned and said, "Aying, just say it. Speak up if you have something to say, or get to the point."

Hearing her master's impatient tone, Aying shrank back.

It knew that its master had been working a huge job in the space recently, working day and night without rest, constantly refining various pills. It could be seen that the medicinal herbs collected in Ningqian City some time ago were almost used up, and the new medicinal herbs in the space had not yet matured.

It's unclear what Wenwen wanted to verify. Since the medicinal herbs hadn't matured, she used her spiritual power to accelerate their growth. So every day, she exhausted all the spiritual power in her body, and after that, she would be in a very drowsy state.

She had just exhausted her spiritual energy and was about to lie down when A-Ying returned. Under these circumstances, it was already quite remarkable that she didn't lose her temper.

Aying was a good bird that knew how to be grateful. Ignoring Wenwen's temper, she jumped onto the living room table and slowly said, "I went to the Misty Forest today and collected two more bottles of mist. Look!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two transparent glass bottles appeared on the table.

The glass bottle was taken out of Wenwen's space for Aying to use, with the purpose of collecting the mist in the inner part of the Misty Forest.

The three siblings looked at the bottle, and it was clear to the naked eye that the mist inside was much thicker than before. Upon closer inspection, it seemed that there was also a layer of color that was neither blue nor green mixed in.

"Little sister, did you see that?" Wen Chengbin pointed at the bottle and shouted, "Big brother, what about you?"

“I saw it,” Wen Chengjian said.

Wenwen lay on the table, looking weak and listless. "Aying, get to the point. If you don't tell me, I'm really going to fall asleep."

"Okay, master."

Aying plopped down on the table, sitting upright with her beady eyes wide open. "I think the secret realm is about to open. I suggest you go there and keep watch tomorrow. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be a matter of two or three days. If we wait for the news to come back before we set off, we'll probably have to wait in line for several days at the teleportation array."

"Is it really that bad?" Wen Chengbin asked, puzzled.

"Isn't the teleportation array supposed to take you there in an instant? Why do we have to wait in line?"

"Ah Ying, don't scare us, we're not from Xiamen University!"

At the end, Wen Chengbin even joked.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, A Ying flapped her wings and slapped Wen Chengbin on the forehead. "Hmph, you blockhead, you deserve to get points deducted. You can't even earn enough points to cover the deductions, you blockhead. When I see my master tomorrow, I'm going to complain!"

"Hey!" Wen Chengbin protested, raising his hand just as he began, "You..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wen Chengjian interrupted him: "Second brother, stop fooling around!"

Having stopped Wen Chengbin's antics, Wen Chengjian looked at Wen Wen and asked, "Little sister, what do you think?"

"I'll listen to my older brother, haha—"

Wen Chengjian immediately decided, "Then let's set off early tomorrow morning and go to the Misty Forest to keep watch."
