Perfection: He is the Heavenly Emperor, I am the Eastern Emperor!

Chapter 83 Return to the Wilderness

"at any time·······"

However, after hearing Yun Canghai say that it was possible at any time, Shi An hesitated.

Seeing this, Yun Canghai's heart stirred, and he hurriedly asked, "Young friend, is there some difficulty? If so, you can wait until you have dealt with your matters before you go. I am not in a hurry."

Shi An seemed to have been waiting for Yun Canghai to say this. As soon as Yun Canghai finished speaking, Shi An followed up with, "If that's the case, then please wait for half a year. After half a year, we should return, and then we can travel together."

"Six months?!"

Upon hearing Shi An say that it would take half a year, some of the previously kind-hearted elders immediately changed their expressions and prepared to get angry.

However, having personally experienced the oppressive power of Liu Shen, Yun Canghai dared not give Shi An a hard time.

And to prevent the already eased relations from deteriorating again due to the arrogance of these old fellows, he quickly waved his hand to stop the elders who were about to lash out, and then said to Shi An in a gentle tone, "Since you have made arrangements, young friend, we are naturally willing to wait."

"It's only been half a year, which is just a blink of an eye for us."

Seeing that Yun Canghai had no objections, Shi An didn't say anything more. He immediately cupped his hands in farewell and said, "In that case, I will take my leave first. I will come to Tianshen Mountain again in half a year to go to Kunpeng Nest with you all."

After saying that, Shi An turned and left.

Watching Shi An's departing figure, Yun Canghai, adhering to the principle of not letting go of any opportunity, immediately instructed Yun Xi beside him, "Xiao Xi, see your young friend off!"

"Yes, Grandfather!"

Upon hearing this, Yunxi was unwilling, but she had always been obedient and sensible since childhood, so how could she disobey her grandfather, especially since it was not a big deal?

And so, Yunxi accepted the order and followed in Shi An's footsteps.

"You really went to great lengths!"

Watching the two figures gradually disappear into the distance, the old man who had been in the lead and remained silent finally spoke.

"Ancestor, I'm doing this for the sake of the family."

Upon hearing the old man's voice, Yun Canghai was taken aback at first, then turned around and smiled, "If Yun Xi can really get along with that kid, then not only can we completely eliminate the misunderstanding between him and us, but we can also establish a connection with the person behind him."

No sooner had Yun Canghai finished speaking than the old man raised another question that made Yun Canghai's expression change slightly: "Then how are you going to explain this to the Golden Roc Clan?"

"them·······"

Upon hearing the old man mention the Golden Roc Clan, Yun Canghai fell silent. After a long while, he looked up again, gazing intently into the distance: "I never promised them anything, so why should I give them an explanation?"

"Alright!"

Since Yun Canghai had said so, the old man had no choice but to nod helplessly, and then closed his eyes again.

Meanwhile, on the other side, with Yunxi seeing him off, Shi An had already descended from Tian Shen Mountain.

"Thank you for seeing me off, young lady. I shall take my leave now."

At the foot of Tianshen Mountain, Shi An bid a final farewell to Yun Xi and then walked away into the distance.

He hadn't gone far when he stopped and returned to Yunxi's side, looking slightly embarrassed. "Um... could you please tell me the location of this place? How far is it from the Cangmang Mountains?"

"Are you from the Cangmang Mountains?"

Upon hearing Shi An ask about the location of the Cangmang Mountains, a hint of surprise flashed in Yun Xi's eyes.

As far as she knew, the Cangmang Mountains were a forbidden zone for humans, and apart from various ancient beasts, there shouldn't be any powerful races there at all.

However, despite thinking this in her heart, Yunxi still parted her lips slightly and said, "This place is located in the northwest of the Cangmang Mountains, about hundreds of thousands of miles away from the Cangmang Mountains."

"Hundreds of thousands of miles..."

Upon hearing this, Shi An's expression changed slightly.

This distance of hundreds of thousands of miles, while not impossible for him to travel now, is still far enough. Going back and forth like this, wouldn't he have to rush back as soon as he gets back to Stone Village?

"Where has Jin Huang gone?"

Suddenly, Shi An remembered his mount—Jin Huang!

During his battle with Yun Canghai, the enemy escaped in the chaos and no one knows where he is now. If he had it, this journey would have been much easier.

"Young friend, are you worried about the long journey?"

Just then, Yun Canghai's voice suddenly rang in Shi An's mind.

"Sound transmission?"

Hearing Yun Canghai's voice in his mind, Shi An was only slightly taken aback before he immediately realized what was happening and replied, "Senior, do you have a way?"

"nature!"

As soon as Shi An finished speaking, Yun Canghai's voice rang out again: "Xiao Xi has a magic weapon in her hand, which I gave her when she went out to travel when she was ten years old. It has the ability to teleport over long distances."

"this·······"

After listening to Yun Canghai's words, Shi An couldn't help but turn his gaze to Yun Xi.

At the same time, Yun Xi also heard Yun Canghai's voice in her mind, roughly telling her to see Shi An off.

"Grandfather, what's wrong with you...?"

Yunxi wanted to object to this arrangement, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she realized that her grandfather had already cut off all contact.

Helpless, she could only look at Shi An with a reluctant expression and say, "Since Grandfather has said so, then come with me!"

After saying that, Yunxi turned and walked to the other side, completely ignoring whether Shi An followed or not.

Seeing this, Shi An also twitched the corners of his mouth.

Anyone who isn't a fool could see through Yun Canghai's inexplicable arrangements, and coincidentally, neither Shi An nor Yun Xi were fools, so they both understood why Yun Canghai had made these arrangements.

This is also why Yunxi was so resistant just now, even going so far as to disobey.

The only pity was that Yun Canghai did not give her a chance to disobey.

"Phew~"

At the foot of Mount Tianshen, in a dense forest, Yunxi took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and said softly, "I'm just giving you a ride on my grandfather's orders. I hope you won't overthink it."

As she spoke, Yunxi casually waved her hand, and a jade pendant shimmering with purple light flew out from nowhere and hovered in her palm. Mysterious patterns flowed on it, faintly revealing a sense of spatial fluctuation.

Let's go!

Without further ado, Yunxi didn't want to listen to Shi An's ramblings. The moment she summoned the jade pendant, she immediately activated its function.

"Buzz!"

A dazzling light burst forth from the jade pendant, instantly enveloping Yunxi and Shi An. The surrounding space seemed to be distorted, the scenery became blurry and unpredictable, and a strong sense of spatial teleportation surged into their hearts.

Then, as the light faded, Shi An found himself and Yun Xi in an unfamiliar mountain forest.

Ancient trees tower all around, birds sing, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance of grass and trees.

Shadow Bert is here! Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!!!
