All beasts submit, and the peerless imperial princess is about to defy the heavens!

Chu An smiled and nodded, "No need to thank me, I was just passing by and it was nothing."

Seeing that she was alone, Chu An still asked, "Why are you here alone, young lady?! It's dangerous here. If you have nothing else to do, you should leave as soon as possible."

Feng Ning immediately started playing the victim, "I want to go out too, but I'm lost."

Chu An smiled gently, "That's alright. You can tell me where you want to go. I'm quite familiar with this place and can give you directions."

Upon hearing this, Feng Ning exclaimed, "This won't do!"

I was planning to go to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect with your help, how can I just leave like this?

So he sighed, "Sigh... I don't know where I'm going. I have amnesia. I only remember my name. This monkey is with me. I'm just about to walk forward and see what happens."

Then, with her head down, looking weak, pitiful, and helpless, she said, "If Brother Chu doesn't mind, could you just give me directions? I'll walk around and see."

Seeing her like this, Chu An's heart softened instantly. "It's not safe for a young lady like you to be walking around outside alone..."

Feng Ning's eyes lit up instantly, but she still didn't raise her head, waiting for him to say what he was going to say next.

Chu An then asked, "Has the young lady begun her cultivation? What is her current cultivation level?"

Feng Ning nodded, "I have been cultivating, but my cultivation level is not high. I have only reached the Golden Core stage so far."

Chu An's eyes lit up. "You don't look very old. Have you already reached the Golden Core stage? What kind of spiritual root do you have?"

Feng Ning nodded. "I'm fifteen, so I should have reached the Golden Core stage. As for spiritual roots, I'm not too sure. How are spiritual roots calculated here? Could you explain it to me?"

"Can't you use it yourself?" Chu An asked in confusion.

They've already cultivated to the Golden Core stage, yet they don't even know what their spiritual root is. That's ridiculous!

Feng Ning was a little embarrassed, "My spiritual root might be a bit weak..."

Upon hearing her say that, Chu An Yi felt it made some sense.

If you feel that your spiritual root is too weak and you are too embarrassed to say it, that's still somewhat reasonable.

He explained, “There are many kinds of spiritual roots, which are divided into five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Among them, there are mutated spiritual roots and rare spiritual roots. For example, water can become ice after mutation. Wood is originally a healing element, but if it is poisoned, it becomes a mutated spiritual root. Rare spiritual roots are less common, and there are four kinds: wind, thunder, light, and darkness.”

"Oh, right, you probably don't know the classifications of cultivation, do you? Cultivators can be divided into sword cultivators, alchemists, weapon refiners, talisman masters, array masters, and beast tamers. Now you probably understand, right?"

Feng Ning nodded quickly, "I understand, I understand."

Chu An glanced at him. "You have no sword in your hand, so you shouldn't be a sword cultivator, right? And what exactly is your spiritual root?"

Feng Ning smiled and said, "I don't know, but I seem to know how to form arrays. As for my spiritual root... it should be an ice spiritual root."

She gently raised her hand, and an ice needle appeared between her fingers.

Chu An was stunned for a moment, but quickly composed himself. "Don't tell anyone about your spiritual root yet. Let me go back and see my master first."

Feng Ning knew that perhaps it was a special case, so she could only nod silently, "Okay."

Chu An nodded. "The array master has actually cultivated to the Golden Core stage, and he's also a genius with an ice spirit root. If I bring you back, the elders of the array academy will be ecstatic."

Feng Ning smiled shyly, but in her heart she was thinking that this place was not much different from the Xuanling Continent, and the basic concepts were similar.

Then Chu An said, "I'm not asking you these questions to find out anything. I just want to tell you that if you have good talent, you can come back to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect with me. It might be better than you wandering outside."

Feng Ning was overjoyed, but still asked with some uncertainty, "Can I really go?"

Chu An nodded. "You can go, but I need to make things clear to you beforehand."

"Senior Brother Chu, please speak."

Chu An smiled and ignored her calling him "senior brother," saying, "Our Ten Thousand Swords Sect mainly focuses on sword cultivators. If you don't practice swordsmanship, you might not be as valued as sword cultivators in other academies, and you might also have fewer resources."

Feng Ning was only staying here temporarily, so why would she care about these things? She quickly agreed.

"It doesn't matter, as long as I have a place to stay and don't have to wander outside, I don't care about anything else."

Chu An nodded in satisfaction when he saw how obedient and well-behaved she was.

"Alright, since that's the case, then come with me. It just so happens that the new disciples will be entering the academy in a few days. I'll register you first. As for whether you can get into the array academy, I can't guarantee it."

Feng Ning quickly shook her head. "Senior brother, don't worry. Just give me a chance. Whether it works or not, I won't be disappointed."

Chu An nodded. "Alright, then you can come with me first. Let's meet up with the others and then go back together."

Feng Ning was overjoyed and followed along eagerly, with the little monkey naturally following as well.

Just as Chu An was about to fly on his sword, he turned to look at her again and asked, "Do you have any magical artifacts?"

Feng Ning was a little embarrassed. "No."

Chu An didn't mind at all, and simply took out a finely crafted-looking sword from his spatial storage and handed it over.

"Don't you remember the Sword Chronicles?"

Feng Ning nodded, "I remember that."

Chu An led the way, saying, "Alright, let's set off to find them now."

The two then walked to the other side.

Upon arriving at the destination, Feng Ning finally understood why so many Golden Core stage demonic beasts were wandering around outside.

These disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect are probably here for training, specifically to hunt down demonic beasts.

The previous demonic beasts were also driven away by them.

However, this time they were besieging a Nascent Soul stage demon beast, and the battle seemed to be quite intense and chaotic.

When the two went down, they had already dug out the demon beast's core and cleaned up the corpse.

As soon as Chu An went over, everyone gathered around him.

"Senior Brother, you're back."

"Big Brother!"

As soon as everyone finished shouting, they saw Feng Ning following behind Chu An Yi.

Everyone was stunned. "Senior Brother, who is this young lady?"

A woman rushed out of the crowd in a panic and shouted as soon as she saw Feng Ning.

"Senior Brother, who is she? Why did you bring her here?"

When Feng Ning saw the crowd's strong reaction, she was also a little confused. Was the reaction a bit too much?
