Chapter 448 Reunion

Longyuan River, as the largest river in Wu, stretches for thousands of miles, with magnificent waves and boundless river surface. Occasionally, the river water rolls up, forming huge whirlpools, or huge waves several feet high, as if there is really a dragon lurking at the bottom of the river.

This river is wide and almost spans most of Wu. Thousands of ships pass by on the river all year round, and merchants from various cities along the way travel on it. It is the most important water conservancy and trade route in Wu.

The tail of Longyuan River flows directly into the East China Sea. A huge city stands on the coast, called "Dragon King City". It is the largest trade hub between Wu and the East China Sea. There are countless large and small boats moored at the dock outside the city.

Every year, pearls, kelp, salt, etc. from the East China Sea flow into Wu from here, and rice, cloth and other items from Wu also enter the East China Sea through this place. Dragon King City is extremely prosperous, even the capital of Wu is inferior to it.

Dragon King City is not only a city for ordinary trade, but also a city for cultivators. Countless cultivators from the inland of the Central Plains enter the East China Sea from here, hunt monsters, and search for treasures, and also bring their harvests back to Dragon King City for sale.

Speaking of this, in Wu State, Dragon King City can be regarded as the leading city for cultivating immortals.

A huge green ship a hundred feet long broke through the river and slowly approached the Dragon King City dock. This is a huge cargo ship heading to Dragon King City. The ship is full of rice and grain, and there are also a few passengers coming to Dragon King City.

"Dragon King City, we are finally here." A young man of medium build and slightly dark skin stood by the side of the ship, looking at the huge city in front of him, and muttered.

This person is Yuan Ming, who used the blood bone mask to transform his appearance again.

Previously, after he got rid of the ancestor Mingquan in the market, he did not fly to the East China Sea, but chose to take a boat instead.

Since Patriarch Mingquan couldn't find him in front, he would probably mobilize people to check the people flying in the sky. Taking a boat on the ground could avoid Patriarch Mingquan's search. Secondly, he also wanted to use this to test whether Patriarch Mingquan had other means to locate him.

Yuan Ming could not allow any omissions in arranging his parents this time. He had to completely avoid the other party's detection before arriving at the East China Sea.

Fortunately, the Yuanying period cultivator did not appear once along the way, and he should have completely gotten rid of him.

The blue giant boat quickly docked, and the merchants and passengers on the boat hurriedly disembarked.

Yuan Ming also boarded the dock in the crowd and walked into Dragon King City.

What he saw and heard in the city was different from that in Dajin, Zhao, and Nanjiang. Most of the buildings were made of wood, and bricks and tiles were rare. The people here lived a rich life, and even many trees and flowers were planted on the roadside, which was extremely exquisite.

Compared with the solemnity of Dajin and the simplicity of Zhao, everything here is more exquisite. Even the streets where goods are sold have a scene every five steps and a painting every ten steps. There are tall buildings, beautiful houses, small bridges and flowing water, just like a garden.

Dragon King City covers a very large area. The outer area is the residential area for mortals, and the inner city is the territory of immortal cultivators. Mortals are prohibited from approaching.

Yuan Ming slightly leaked the breath of mana, disguised as an ordinary foundation-building cultivator, and entered the inner city.

The situation in the inner city is similar to that in the outer city, but the streets are more spacious, more exquisite, and more beautiful.

There are many cultivators in the inner city, and both the number of people and the cultivation level are better than those in Xiaohu City, Wangyue City and other places.

In just a moment, Yuan Ming's consciousness has sensed the existence of several Jindan stage cultivators.

The most peculiar thing is that a Jindan stage cultivator still has a demonic aura, and the skin on his cheeks is blue-black, with a scaly pattern.

"I've heard that there are half-human, half-demon tribes in the East China Sea. It seems to be true." Yuan Ming thought to himself, but he didn't look at it more to avoid misunderstanding.

In addition to these, the cultivators in Dragon King City have another special feature. Almost everyone wears a spirit beast bag around their waist, and some even ride spirit beasts directly.

A middle-aged cultivator in yellow clothes rode on a two-meter-long green spirit tiger and walked past Yuan Ming. People nearby all looked accustomed to it.

"The land of the East China Sea is indeed very different from Dajin and Nanjiang." Yuan Ming thought about it and came to a bookstore in the inner city.

At this moment, there is still half a year before the time he and Xiying agreed to meet. He is not in a hurry to meet her. The most urgent thing is to find a safe place to settle his parents.

Yuan Ming selected a few books introducing the geography of the East China Sea. Just as he was about to pay the bill, a strong wish came from the city.

Judging from the strength of the wish, it was a believer of a Jindan stage cultivator.

Yuan Ming bought a few books and came to a nearby inn. He took out the silver token and opened the barrier. He entered the Heaven Stealing Cauldron and extended his spiritual sense.

A praying girl in white came into view. It was Yan Sijing.

"It's her." Yuan Ming was not surprised to see this.

He currently has only two followers in the Jindan period, Yan Sijing and the three-eyed black dove. The three-eyed black dove is now in the spirit beast bag, and the only one left is Yan Sijing.

Yuan Ming spread his spiritual sense from Yan Sijing and couldn't help but smile.

Yan Sijing is now living in a large inn similar to a manor. The two rooms next to her are all acquaintances, but they are Xiying and Yan Siyun. Many people from Baidanfang are also here.

Yuan Ming pondered for a moment, left the Heaven Stealing Cauldron, removed the silver barrier, and left the inn.

Yan Sijing prayed in the room for a quarter of an hour before stopping, feeling uneasy.

During this period of time, she has been busy with the affairs of Baidanfang and was so confused that she forgot to pray to Lord Mingyue God. She wondered if he would blame her?

"My sister and I brought the people from Baidanfang to Dragon King City, which can be regarded as laying the foundation for the expansion of Mingyue Sect. Lord Mingyue God should not blame us." Yan Sijing thought to herself, and gradually calmed down. She took out the golden beast shadow sword and practiced it.

The golden sword circled around her body, bringing out sword shadows that seemed to be real, and even made the roar of hundreds of beasts, as if practicing a profound sword technique.

The battle of Shura Palace made Yan Sijing realize her shortcomings in actual combat methods. After leaving Shura Palace, in addition to the matter of Baidanfang, she has been working hard day and night to make up for it.

"Well, who is it?" Yan Sijing suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the living room outside.

"Haha, you can sense my breath. It seems that your strength has improved a lot." An illusory figure slowly solidified. It was Yuan Ming, who had restored his original appearance.

"Sijing greets Yuan Shen Envoy." Yan Sijing hurriedly stood up and saluted respectfully.

After the trip to Shura Palace, Yan Sijing was completely aware of Yuan Ming's terrifying strength. She was both respectful and fearful of him, and no longer dared to address him as a fellow Taoist.

"Don't be so reserved. You and I are friends who have experienced life and death together. Just address me as a fellow Taoist." Yuan Ming smiled and said.

"Yes, fellow Taoist Yuan." Yan Sijing said without saying much, lowered her head and called out.

"I saw that you moved all the people from Baidanfang here? Are you planning to develop in the East China Sea?" Yuan Ming asked in turn.

"Yes. Sister Xiying suggested that we do this. She said that although there are not many spiritual materials such as spiritual herbs in the East China Sea, there are a lot of various monster materials and spiritual materials in the sea. Moreover, unlike the Central Plains, once excessive plundering will cause a shortage of materials, the waters of the East China Sea are boundless, and the spiritual materials in the sea are inexhaustible, which is more suitable for the development of Baidanfang. The other people in the square were also transported by her." Yan Sijing said.

Yuan Ming's heart moved. What did Xiying mean by this? Why did she go to great lengths to help Baidanfang? Was it for her own face?

Besides, when did Xiying and Yan Sijing become so close? When they were in Shura Palace, they still had a lot of bumps.

"The resources here in the East Sea are indeed abundant and suitable for alchemy. If you need my help, you can ask for it. Even if I can't solve it, you can ask Lord Mingyue God for help." Since it was Xiying's idea, Yuan Ming didn't investigate it.

Yan Sijing was overjoyed when she heard that Lord Mingyue God was willing to help.

She saw the power of the Mingyue God with her own eyes. He could kill the thousand-year-old demon like the Six Desires Venerable. Naturally, any enemy encountered by Baidanfang is no problem.

"Yuan Daoyou, Baidanfang has moved recently, and there are many things to do. People in the square have not yet believed in Lord Mingyue God. Sister is already planning this matter. Let everyone join the Mingyue God Church in the near future." Yan Sijing remembered the previous promise and said quickly.

"Okay." Yuan Ming nodded.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Yuan. Since you helped us kill the Leiming Patriarch and saved Baidanfang, we sisters will naturally keep our promise." A pleasant voice came, and it was Yan Siyun who came over.

For some reason, the woman's originally dull eyes had a little more agility, and she was looking at Yuan Ming, which made Yuan Ming feel that she was not blind.

In addition, the woman's cultivation level has also increased a lot, and she has reached the peak of the late foundation building stage. After a while, she will be ready to form a pill.

What's more peculiar is that there is an indescribable and inexplicable aura around Yan Siyun.

"You are here." Xiying's figure also appeared in the room.

"I rushed here immediately after finishing the things in Dajin. How is your situation?" Yuan Ming nodded to Yan Siyun, looked at Xiying, and asked.

"I have found out where the materials are, but it will take about a year to get them." Xiying said so.

"One year, the time is just right." Yuan Ming's eyes flashed a few times, and he muttered thoughtfully.

Yan Siyun arranged for several people to sit down and personally brewed a few cups of spiritual tea.

"This is the golden marigold tea, a specialty of Dragon King City. It has a unique taste and can also refresh the mind. Fellow Daoist Yuan can try it."

Yuan Ming took the teacup and tasted it. It was slightly bitter at first, but soon turned into a sweet fragrance. His dantian was slightly hot, his lips and teeth were fragrant, and his spirit was indeed lifted.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, I have heard that you are meticulous and well-informed. Before coming to the East China Sea, you must have collected a lot of information about this place. Can you give me a copy of the information?" Yuan Ming put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Yan Siyun.

"It is Siyun's honor to be recognized by Fellow Daoist Yuan." Yan Siyun smiled lightly, took out a white jade slip, handed it over, and stood up at the same time, and brewed another cup of spiritual tea for Yuan Ming.
