Seeing Su Yang and the other man leave, Peng Shaoshi immediately followed them, muttering to himself, "I was planning to find an opportunity to take care of this kid, but seeing his strength, I can only follow the captain's orders for now and deal with him slowly."

According to Lin Anlan, South Bay City wasn't far from Warrenster Port, only half an hour away. Although it wasn't far, in Lin Anlan's memory it took a carriage ride. Therefore, when Su Yang had walked for a full hour and still hadn't seen the city gate, he couldn't help but wonder if Lin Anlan was right. However, he didn't want to question her directly, so he asked indirectly:

"An Lan, since South Bay City is so close to Warrenster Port, why didn't you just build the port at the city gate of South Bay City in the first place?"

"You don't know this, do you? Although South Bay City is located by the sea, its terrain is very unique. It is high in the south and low in the north. The south of the city faces the sea, but it is a fjord. There is also a high mountain blocking the east of the city. Therefore, South Bay City only has two city gates. The west gate is close to the beach and is a place for many common people to relax and have fun. In the end, we chose to build Warrenster Port in a slightly more distant place."

Then, as if remembering something, Lin Anlan slapped his forehead and said, "Oh dear, I forgot. Last time I went from South Bay City to Warrenster Port by carriage, it only took half an hour. Now if the two of us walk, it will probably take two hours."

Su Yang was both amused and exasperated: "Right? I was wondering why we still couldn't see Nanwan City after walking for so long. If it's that far, why don't we just fly there together?"

Hearing Su Yang suggest flying over, Lin Anlan wasn't surprised, since she could fly herself. However, flying was a mentally taxing activity, and she could only maintain flight for about 5 minutes at most. So she was in a dilemma: "Fly over? But the journey is so long, can I hold on?"

"Didn't you say it would take half an hour by carriage? If we fly there, it should only take 10 minutes, right? Is it that difficult?" Su Yang was a little puzzled. When he practiced flying before, it only took him two hours to fly around the Misty Island. Moreover, he could maintain a flight time of four hours. Could it be that the distance from Nanwan City to him is longer than the circumference of the Misty Island?

"No, isn't the speed of flying about the same as that of a carriage?" Lin Anlan was a little surprised, wondering how Su Yang judged that it would only take ten minutes to fly there.

Su Yang was also puzzled after hearing this: "Since it's flying, it should be faster than a carriage, right? It only took me two hours to fly around the Lost Island."

"You mean you can sustain a two-hour flight!?"

"correct."

Lin Anlan then realized why Su Yang thought flying there was no problem. It turned out that his mental strength was so great that it could sustain flight for two hours. So he said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, handsome Su, to take me there."

"Huh? What do you mean? You can't fly?"

Lin Anlan rolled her eyes: "Do you think everyone is like you? Flying in this world is a very difficult thing, okay? I can only fly for five minutes at most, and I'm not even fast. Who can fly as fast and for as long as you?"

"Hehe," Su Yang chuckled awkwardly, "Taking you flying is no problem of course. Let's put 'One, Two, Three' here first, and I'll fly you there and then come back to pick them up."

He then calmed the three ice-winged dogs and told them to wait there. He then picked up Lin Anlan in his arms, squatted down slightly, exerted force with his feet, activated his qi element, and leaped into the air, then entered flight mode.

With the support of the purest Qi element synthesis, it only took ten minutes to spot the outline of South Bay City. Choosing a secluded spot, Su Yang slowly landed, put Lin Anlan down, and then jumped back into the air to retrieve the Icewing Hounds. Lin Anlan's thoughts seemed to linger in Su Yang's embrace, as if she were floating on clouds. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. At this moment, Su Yang had already returned with the Icewing Hounds. The two reunited and headed towards the west gate of South Bay City.

Peng Shaoshi had been following behind Su Yang and his companion, but there were few pedestrians along the way, and he was afraid of being discovered if he got too close, so he deliberately distanced himself. Unexpectedly, he could no longer see the two of them after just turning a corner. Peng Shaoshi hurriedly ran forward to look around, but he couldn't find them anywhere. He only saw three Icewing Hounds sitting in the same spot, which made him so angry that he wanted to take it out on the Icewing Hounds. Just as he was about to activate the elemental device, he heard a voice calling from not far away: "One, two, three! I'm here to pick you up."

The call startled Peng Shaoshi. Seeing no one around, he looked up and discovered that Su Yang was flying in from the horizon. He quickly ran to hide in the bushes to observe. He watched as Su Yang landed, picked up three Icewing Hounds, and took off again. Peng Shaoshi was furious. As an insulator, he couldn't learn to fly. Their elemental power was plundered from other places, not generated by their own spiritual power. Therefore, they couldn't improve the purity of their elemental synergy. Flying required the coordination of the whole body, so naturally, they couldn't fly.

Peng Shaoshi gritted his teeth and cursed, "You little bastard, how am I supposed to keep up? When I find a chance, I'll definitely drain all your elemental power!" Seeing that Su Yang was flying towards Nanwan City, he could only run to catch up.

Su Yang and Lin Anlan soon arrived at the west gate of Nanwan City. In this world, there was no such thing as an ID card as in the original world. Their adventurer communication tokens served as proof of their identity. Even if they were not adventurers, they could freely enter and exit. The two quickly entered Nanwan City through the west gate.

Upon entering Nanwan City, Su Yang looked around with great curiosity. This city was completely different from Bailu City on the island. The stone-paved roads were interconnected. Although the roads were not wide, they were wide enough for two carriages to travel side by side. There were some bungalows on both sides of the roads. Although they were bungalows, each of them had a small courtyard in front of the door. A fence made of some kind of wood enclosed a lawn, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard were very lush.

The houses are exquisitely decorated. The stone and wood houses are connected perfectly without any roughness. The bright glass windows are so clean that you can see inside. Under the eaves, there are either flowers with vines hanging down or nests of unknown birds. In short, everything reflects the peace of this city, or rather, this country.

As Suyang gradually approached the city center, the houses and roads changed noticeably. The original bungalows gradually became two- or three-story buildings, arranged in a staggered pattern on both sides of the road. The stone slabs on the road when Suyang first entered the city may have been a bit uneven, but the stone slabs here are very smooth, and you won't feel any discomfort when walking on them.

Upon reaching the city center, Su Yang was greeted by a huge square with a large square fountain in the center. At the four corners of the fountain stood four statues, which Su Yang did not recognize, so he asked Lin Anlan who the four statues represented.

"Those four statues are said to represent the four main builders of Nanwan City. Well, calling them builders isn't quite right; they should be called planners. Nanwan City was originally just a small village. These four people, through their own efforts, led the villagers to develop and gradually expand the village's scale, attracting many people to settle here, which is how it gradually grew to its current size."

"This Nanwan City shouldn't be very big, right? I feel like I've only walked for a short while before reaching the city center." Su Yang felt that he had only spent ten or twenty minutes walking to the city center square, so he asked.

“Nanwan City is just a small coastal city, so it’s definitely not very big. That’s why you see that the houses along the way aren’t very tall. The tallest one is only three stories. Look at those tallest buildings over there. Those are the residences of the city lord and several nobles in the city. Don’t be fooled by the fact that there are only a few buildings; the place is quite large.”

"Oh, then can we build our own houses like we did on the island before?" Su Yang still wanted to continue building his secluded farm.

“That won’t do. The city is small to begin with, where would we find the space to build a house? Let’s stay at a hotel tonight. Mora can still be used here, but gold coins are more readily available.”

Su Yang understood. The two strolled around for a while longer before deciding to find a place to stay near a bustling market.

In the evening, Peng Shaoshi finally arrived at the west gate of Nanwan City, staggering as he entered. His hatred had reached its peak, but extreme exhaustion forced him to find an inn to rest before making further plans.
