Mortals ask the immortals

Duan Qing looked helpless: "There is no way. Uncle He specifically asked for the waste stone. I have to go."

"Sister, don't go to Youzhou this time."

"Qingwu just came to Qingfengjian. If you leave, who will take care of Qingwu?"

Xue Wanyun pursed her lips. She wanted to refute Duan Qing, but she didn't know how to start.

Duan Qing was right. It was indeed inappropriate for her to leave Mo Qingwu and Duan Qing to Youzhou.

There are only a few people in Qingfengjian. You can't let the eldest brother or mother take care of Mo Qingwu!

Seeing that Xue Wanyun didn't say anything else, Xiao Sheng still felt angry, but he couldn't say anything else. He just sulked.

"I shouldn't be delayed for too long. Whether it succeeds or not, I will return to the sect within a month. Sisters, don't worry." Duan Qing comforted Xue Wanyun and Xiao Sheng.

"Silly, be careful!" Xue Wanyun said reluctantly.

Duan Qing gave Xue Wanyun a reassuring look, and then looked at Mo Qingwu: "During the time when I am away, remember to listen carefully to your Uncle Xue's teachings."

Mo Qingwu nodded obediently, secretly glanced at Duan Qing, and said nothing.

After chatting with Xue Wanyun and others for a few more words, Duan Qing left Xue Wanyun's cave and made preparations for tomorrow's departure.

…

Early in the morning of the second day, Duan Qing quietly left Qingfengjian with the fool.

Beside the cold stream of Qingfengjian, Xue Wanyun looked at Duan Qing's departing back, his eyes full of concern and reluctance.

Mo Qingwu behind him was a little dazed, with a flash of envy in his eyes.

…

When Duan Qing arrived at the West Mountain Gate, He Qiliao had already been waiting for Duan Qing at the mountain gate.

Seeing Duan Qing, He Qiliao immediately came up to him and said with a smile: "Brother Duan, shall we go to Youzhou now?"

Duan Qing nodded, without saying much, and took He Qiliao directly through the teleportation array at the foot of Qingxu Mountain to the station of the Shendao Sect in Gupan City.

Afterwards, he and He Qiliao used the teleportation array of the Tongtian Tower in Gupan City to teleport to Shuofang City in Youzhou.

Shenzhou, where the Shendao Sect is located, is located in the middle of the Middle Earth, while Youzhou, where the Taihuang Sect is located, is located at the northernmost end of the Middle Earth. The distance between the two places is almost half of the Middle Earth.

If you want to go back and forth within a month, you can only take the teleportation array.

In order to collect enough teleportation spirit stones for him and He Qiliao, he went to the sect shop before setting off and sold three golden corpse inner pills.

The price given by the sect shop is relatively high. Three golden corpse inner pills were sold for ninety top-grade spirit stones.

He Qiliao's cultivation was only at the initial stage of the Questioning Heart Realm. He roughly calculated that ninety top-grade spirit stones were almost enough for him and He Qiliao to teleport back and forth.

It must be said that wasting so many spirit stones on teleportation really hurt him!

The vicinity of the Tongtian Tower in each state of the Middle Earth was a gathering place for cultivators.

However, it was strange that this was not the case in Youzhou Shuofang City.

When he walked out of the teleportation stone chamber, Duan Qing found that there were almost no people around the Tongtian Tower in Shuofang City. It was the most deserted Tongtian Tower he had ever seen.

He Qiliao looked around and explained to Duan Qing: "Youzhou is barren. Although it is vast, it is sparsely populated. Shuofang City is not large in scale. It is almost the smallest city in the Central Plains where the Tower of Babel is located!"

"Because of the large amount of wasteland in Youzhou, the major immortal sects headed by Taihuang Sect basically built their sect headquarters near the wasteland to prevent the wild beasts in the wasteland from causing harm to the world."

"Because of the wild beasts, the total number of cultivators in Youzhou is definitely one of the best in the entire Central Plains."

"But most of the cultivators belong to the major sects, and there are almost no independent cultivators."

"In addition, the sects gathered around the wasteland have opened separate markets near the wasteland for convenience, so the cultivators in Youzhou basically don't like to come to Shuofang City."

After listening to He Qiliao's explanation, Duan Qing suddenly realized.

Then, he was a little confused: "Junior Brother He said before that he had stayed in Youzhou for several years. As a member of my Shinto sect, why did you stay in Youzhou for so long?"

He Qiliao's eyes flashed with loneliness, and he said a little depressed: "To be honest, Junior Brother was born in Youzhou and grew up in Youzhou. Later, he followed the old man back to Shinto Sect!"

Duan Qing was even more puzzled: "Junior Brother, you are not a blood relative of Uncle He? Why did you stay in Youzhou for so long?"

He Qiliao shook his head: "No, it's a long story!"

Duan Qing saw that He Qiliao was unwilling to explain, so he didn't ask more.

He originally thought that He Qiliao was a blood relative of He Changzai, but now it seems that he thought too much.

Duan Qing looked around and asked He Qiliao: "Junior Brother He, which direction should we go now?"

He Qiliao pointed to the north: "The Taihuang Sect is north of Shuofang City, and we have to leave the city from the north gate."

Duan Qing heard him without doubt and went straight north, towards the north gate.

As He Qiliao said, Shuofang City is very small. From the Tongtian Tower in the center of the city to the north gate of Shuofang City, it is less than ten miles.

The two walked for less than half an hour, and the north gate of Shuofang City was in sight.

At this time, at the gate of the north gate, a girl in a green robe and a bamboo hat was standing outside the city gate, looking into the city from time to time.

The wind in Shuofang City was very strong, blowing the girl's green robe and revealing her beautiful and tall figure.

She couldn't remember how many times she looked into the city gate. In the countless times before, she never waited for the person she wanted to wait for.

But she didn't feel discouraged at all.

He said he would come, so he would definitely come.

Finally, when she looked out again, she saw the figure that she had been thinking about from afar.

Finally, he came!

…

When Duan Qing and He Qiliao walked out of the north gate of Shuofang City, a figure suddenly jumped out in front of them.

Seeing the girl in front of him, Duan Qing frowned and shouted softly: "Sheng'er, what are you doing here?"

The girl in front of him was Xiao Sheng.

Xiao Sheng looked at Duan Qing with a smile: "Humph, you want to leave me alone and come to Youzhou, no way!"

"Sheng'er! Brother Qing didn't come to Youzhou for an outing! Youzhou is dangerous, why are you so reckless!" Duan Qing said sternly.

Duan Qing's tone made Xiao Sheng feel wronged, tears welled up in her eyes: "Since Sheng'er entered the Shinto Sect, Brother Qing, you have been busy all day long. Sheng'er just wants to spend more time with Brother Qing!"

Duan Qing's heart softened, but he still refused to let go: "Brother Qing said that he had no choice but to come to Youzhou this time. Once this matter is resolved, Brother Qing will have plenty of time to stay in the sect!"

Xiao Sheng shook her head vigorously and sobbed: "You are lying, you are lying. After you finish this matter, you will definitely have other things to do!"

"Brother Qing, you are always like this, Sheng'er will not be fooled!"
