The whole world is cultivating qi, only I am cultivating the body

Xiaoxue and the other two had a very sensitive sense of smell. Even though the strange fragrance only appeared for a moment, they still caught it with their noses. However, this fragrance posed no threat to them. On the contrary, it smelled very good. They also believed that Mu Zhi had no bad intentions towards them, so they did not ask and just left Zeng Wenyu and Mu Zhi and headed straight for the Cangling Mountains.

Zeng Wenyu was actually reluctant to see Xiaoxue and the others leave, especially since the hood behind his head was no longer weighted, which always made him feel light and fluttery. But he also knew that he couldn't keep them by his side forever, as this would not be conducive to their growth.

After watching the three little ones disappear from view outside Xinkang City, Zeng Wenyu sighed, "Alas... I'm still a little uncomfortable with their departure."

"What's there to be uncomfortable about? Didn't you leave a mark on them? With your current level of cultivation, there are almost no cultivators who can break your protective mark, unless they are from other worlds with higher heavenly rules. But you also know the situation in this world. The bridges to the surrounding worlds have been broken. Unless they have been hiding in this world or are antiques who have survived from a long time ago, no one can threaten them before you appear."

"I hope so..."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Now that the five innate elements in your body have been replenished, and you even unexpectedly gained the yin and yang energy, where are you going to go next?"

"Liang, let's say. Liang is the only one of the three dynasties on this continent that I haven't visited yet. Liang is undergoing a period of change right now. I have a Taoist companion in the Liang reform army. I would be a little worried if I don't go and take a look."

"Hmm? I didn't realize, brother, that although you are still young, you already have a partner? Or 'have a partner'? It seems that you were very romantic in the past, brother?"

"This..." Thinking of what happened at that time, Zeng Wenyu's face turned red, "I am not young anymore after all, and it is normal for me to have a Taoist partner..."

Seeing the embarrassed look on Zeng Wenyu's face, Mu Zhi chuckled: "Okay, brother, don't explain. I'll go with you to see what kind of women can make you remember them like this."

"Sister Mu Zhi, please stop teasing me." Zeng Wenyu's expression was serious. He hurried his steps, leaving Mu Zhi with his back. "Let's go. It's still a long way from here to Liang State. If we don't fly, it will take at least a month to catch up."

Looking at Zeng Wenyu's back, Mu Zhi chuckled and followed him. She knew that Zeng Wenyu was shy, but she didn't continue to tease Zeng Wenyu. If she continued teasing, Zeng Wenyu might really get angry and it would not be fun.

Walking from Xinkang City towards Liang State, Zeng Wenyu had been constantly inquiring about the situation in Liang State. Although the Emperor Liang was dead, there were still many Divine Realm cultivators in the royal family of Liang State, and Liang State was the longest-standing dynasty on Tianyi Continent, so it was impossible that it had no foundation. Zeng Wenyu believed that in addition to the Emperor Liang, there were definitely other Tribulation Realm cultivators in Liang State, but the cultivation level of those Tribulation Realm cultivators might not be as high as that of the Emperor Liang, or those Tribulation Realm cultivators might not be as famous as the Emperor Liang.

Facing such an ancient dynasty, one can never be too careful. Moreover, from the information Zeng Wenyu had gathered along the way, he knew that Li Qi was about to lead the Reform Army to attack the Central Imperial City of Liang. So this time Zeng Wenyu did not walk around with Mu Zhi as he did in the past. His goal was very clear, which was to get to the Central Imperial City of Liang as quickly as possible.

After half a month's journey, the two finally arrived at the border city of Kangguo. This was the second city Zeng Wenyu came to after coming to this world. At that time, he was still in the Bone Refining Realm. He had experienced a great battle here. Now returning to the border city, he still felt some emotion.

Compared to when Zeng Wenyu left, Shubian City has not changed much. There are just a lot more people on the streets. Moreover, Shubian City knew that it would face an attack from Zhengxi City, so it naturally implemented some martial law. The current liveliness is only because the martial law has been lifted.

Walking on the busy street, Zeng Wenyu headed towards the Third Army Base in Border City. Not long after, he arrived outside the Third Army Base in Border City. Looking at the familiar layout of the base, Zeng Wenyu suddenly became excited. However, before he walked towards the Third Army Base, a female guard outside the base had already walked up to Zeng Wenyu.

"Who are you? Why are you standing outside my Third Army's base?"

Zeng Wenyu felt that the female guard looked unfamiliar. You have to know that Zeng Wenyu was the only male soldier in the Third Army at that time. In addition, at the celebration banquet before leaving, he had met all the female soldiers of the Third Army. Even if they had not exchanged a few words, he would not feel unfamiliar when they met.

Although Zeng Wenyu was unfamiliar with the female soldier in front of him, he did not intend to force his way into the military camp. He just clasped his fists towards the female soldier and said, "Miss, I am a friend of General Hua Wuyue. Can I let him know?"

When the female soldier heard Zeng Wenyu say this, a trace of panic appeared on her face, but she quickly adjusted herself: "What General Hua Wu Yue? We don't have any General Hua Wu Yue here! The military camp is an important place! You'd better leave quickly! Otherwise, don't blame me for the unreasonable weapon in my hand!"

Zeng Wenyu keenly caught the trace of panic on the female soldier's face. He didn't say much and pulled Mu Zhi away from the military camp.

After walking for a distance and seeing that no one was following behind, Mu Zhi said to Zeng Wenyu: "That female soldier is lying. She must be hiding something."

"Well, I can see that too. It seems that something must have happened in the Border Guard City. You know, when I left, Wu Yue had made great contributions. Even if she cannot be promoted, she will not be deprived of her status as the general of the Third Army." Zeng Wenyu turned and looked in the direction of the military camp from a distance. "Just now, the female soldier was very panicked when she heard Wu Yue's name. Something must have happened to Wu Yue."

"What should we do? How about we break into the City Lord's Mansion and ask the City Lord what's going on?"

"No need. I know where Lan Shuang lives. Let's go to her place and look for her first."

Zeng Wenyu took Mu Zhi through several streets and finally came to a not very big courtyard, which was Lan Shuang's house in Shubian City.

He walked forward and pulled the rope connected to the bell on the courtyard gate. Someone in the yard answered, and then the gate was opened, and Lan Shuang appeared behind the door.

"Wenyu?" Lan Shuang shouted in surprise and immediately looked around. Then she quickly pulled Zeng Wenyu into the yard. "When did you come back? Why are you here?"
