When Chu Fengmian obtained the Qingxian Vine, Gu Jin’s injuries on the side also gradually began to recover.
Martial Artists who have reached the Life and Death stage already possess life force far beyond ordinary Martial Artists. As long as it’s not a fatal injury and with the aid of Elixir Pills, they can quickly recover.
The aura on Gu Jin’s body had cald a lot. She walked towards Chu Fengmian and hastily spoke.
"Thank you, Senior Chu, for your help. May I ask why you ca to the Central Region this ti? My Gu family also has so influence here and can assist Senior Chu in return for this favor."
"Oh? It’s not a big deal. I ca to the Central Region this ti, first, to participate in the Nine Domains Talent Competition, and second, to buy so Spiritual dicines for refining Spirit Pills."
Chu Fengmian replied.
His purpose this ti was clear, and there was nothing to hide.
The Nine Domains Talent Competition attracts over a million Martial Artists every year, so Chu Fengmian’s participation is not a big deal.
"The Nine Domains Talent Competition? There’s still a month’s ti until the competition, no rush. As for buying Spiritual dicines..."
Gu Jin suddenly smiled, showing a bit of pride.
"Our Gu family is the largest family in Ningzhou Ancient City. Most of the trade associations have so connections with us. Why not co with to Ningzhou Ancient City? Our Gu family can do business with you, Senior Chu, and we have a Teleportation Array in Ningzhou Ancient City that leads directly to the Ancient Arena for the Nine Domains Talent Competition, accessible any ti."
"In that case, it’s better to accept kindly than to decline courteously."
Chu Fengmian nodded.
"Then please, Miss Gu, lead the way."
Chu Fengmian was originally planning to go to Ningzhou Ancient City, so traveling with Gu Jin was convenient.
Besides, the Spiritual dicines Chu Fengmian wanted to buy were mostly Holy dicines, even top-tier Holy dicines, which are difficult to acquire without connections.
With Gu Jin’s help, it would be much more convenient, and there was no need to refuse.
The Nine Domains Talent Competition is about a month away, which makes it a good ti for Chu Fengmian to collect more Holy dicines.
"Alright, Senior Chu, please follow ."
Gu Jin’s figure moved, transforming into a Tunneling Light and flying directly out of the Demon Valley. Chu Fengmian followed closely behind.
As they flew, Chu Fengmian and Gu Jin kept an eye on their surroundings. After two to three hours, an enormous city ca into Chu Fengmian’s sight.
It was more than just a giant city; its size surpassed countless nations, resembling a huge kingdom, with towering walls as high as a thousand ters. A glance could reveal an unknown number of powerful figures hidden within.
Ningzhou Ancient City.
Chu Fengmian still rembered so things about the Central Region. Ningzhou Ancient City was a huge comrcial city in the region. Although not the top in the Central Region, it was much more prosperous than Beiyang City in the Northern Region.
Martial Artists queued in long lines to get in, stretching thousands of ters. Each Martial Artist entering the city needed to have their identity checked.
It would take at least several days of waiting in line to enter the city.
"We can go directly in without queuing."
Gu Jin smiled when she noticed Chu Fengmian’s gaze. Her Tunneling Light moved, flying directly into Ningzhou Ancient City, with Chu Fengmian right behind her.
"Who are these people daring to fly straight into Ningzhou Ancient City? Are they tired of living?"
"Why do we have to queue while they can simply fly in?"
So of the Martial Artists in line noticed the two Tunneling Lights and complained.
"Shh, do you have a death wish? Those who can fly directly into Ningzhou Ancient City are big figures. Be careful of being heard and getting yourself killed."
One of the Martial Artists next to them quickly cautioned, silencing them into submission and stopping them from complaining further.
These discussions were endless.
"Who’s there? Stop!"
As Chu Fengmian and Gu Jin’s Tunneling Light landed over Ningzhou Ancient City, two figures flew over. These two figures were Martial Artists at the fifth level of the Life and Death stage, figures who would be considered ancestors in smaller places.
But in Ningzhou Ancient City, they could only serve as patrol guards, overseeing the city’s affairs.
"It’s , Gu Jin, let us pass!"
Gu Jin was unfazed and spoke calmly.
"So it’s Miss Gu."
The two guards quickly made way after recognizing her.
The largest family in Ningzhou Ancient City was the Gu family. They dared not obstruct Gu Jin and hastily stepped aside, allowing Chu Fengmian and Gu Jin’s figures to descend directly.
"Jin’er? Is Jin’er back?"
As Chu Fengmian and Gu Jin landed in Ningzhou Ancient City, an anxious voice suddenly rang out.
With the arrival of the voice ca a powerful aura, pressing down abruptly. Many Martial Artists around Chu Fengmian imdiately knelt, even the guards at the fifth level of the Life and Death stage also knelt.
Chu Fengmian felt this pressure too, but with a circulation of Spiritual Power, the pressure on him vanished.
However, Chu Fengmian could sense that the owner of this aura was indeed a major figure, a figure at the sixth level of the Life and Death stage, in the Heart Refinent Realm.
Just a step away from reaching the seventh level, the Destiny Realm, a step away from being crowned emperor.
Only such figures could possess such overwhelming power.
"Family Head of the Gu Family!"
"The ruler of Ningzhou Ancient City!"
So Martial Artists around exclaid excitedly when they sensed this aura.
This was a true major figure, rarely seen in everyday life, yet had appeared here today.
"Jin’er, are you alright?"
With the aura, a figure descended, transford into a Tunneling Light, and arrived directly in front of Gu Jin, carefully inspecting her.
Seeing no injuries on Gu Jin, the figure gradually relaxed.
"Father."
Gu Jin whispered upon seeing the Gu family’s Family Head.
This ti her impulsive departure nearly led to a disaster, putting herself in harm’s way.
"It’s good that you’re safe. Even if those people provoked you, you shouldn’t have gone to oppose the Blood Sword Demon Venerable. His cunning nature makes him extrely difficult to deal with. Luckily, you returned safely without encountering danger."
"Father, your daughter realizes her mistake."
Gu Jin quickly said softly and then suddenly looked up at Chu Fengmian and continued.
"Father, this is my benefactor. If it weren’t for Senior Chu’s help, I would have died at the hands of the Blood Sword Demon Lord. It was thanks to Senior Chu’s intervention that the Blood Sword Demon Lord was defeated."
