In his perception, the black little bird flew into the massive Heaven Dou City, heading toward the very center.
The bird flew very quickly. After more than ten minutes, he saw a vast and magnificent complex of buildings.
"This should be the imperial palace," Jiang Chen concluded in his heart.
Aside from the imperial palace, he couldn't imagine any other building that could be so grand and imposing.
The towering palace walls were no less imposing than the outer city walls, reaching over eighty meters in height and about twenty meters thick.
Jiang Chen did not linger. He controlled the little black bird to fly into the imperial palace.
It was already past midnight, and the entire palace had fallen silent. Finding Qian Renxue under such circumstances was impossible.
After flying a circle inside the palace, Jiang Chen directed the little black bird to land on the roof of the most magnificent grand hall.
He would observe again during the daytime; he should be able to locate Qian Renxue then.
After completing all this, he turned and jumped into the valley below.
He did not release the Thunder Light Wings. His toes lightly tapped against the cliff face, continuously dissipating force, and soon he returned to the bottom of the valley.
Hu Liena had already returned to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. In the very center, amid the hazy mist, she was cultivating.
Jiang Chen glanced at her once before retracting his gaze. He walked to the shore and began absorbing the fire poison and cold poison.
Once Hu Liena fully absorbed the medicinal properties of those two herbs, and once the fire poison and cold poison no longer had any effect on him, they would leave this place.
At dawn, rustling sounds arose. Jiang Chen opened his eyes in confusion, turned his head, and happened to catch the sight of Hu Liena bending over to dress with her back to him.
Jiang Chen's heart suddenly stopped, but in just a moment, it began pounding wildly. Hu Liena was facing away from him and had not noticed that he was already awake.
Hu Liena truly possessed an innate seductive bone. Apart from that natural, alluring aura, her figure was also extremely perfect.
Jiang Chen held his breath deeply, afraid of startling Hu Liena.
Such a beautiful scene, he couldn't even describe it with words.
But a woman's intuition is extremely terrifying. Hu Liena suddenly turned her head and met Jiang Chen's gaze directly.
Jiang Chen awkwardly closed his eyes and turned his head away.
"Little Chen, I'm hungry."
A moment later, Hu Liena walked over. Apart from her slightly flushed cheeks, she showed no other unusual reaction and said nothing about Jiang Chen's earlier peeking.
In fact, in her heart, there was even a little secret delight.
Jiang Chen helplessly stopped cultivating and rummaged through his soul guidance device space. After a moment, he finally found some dry rations.
Hu Liena pursed her lips. "I don't want to eat this stuff. It has no nutrition at all."
Her eyes turned, and she coaxed, "How about we go stroll around Heaven Dou City instead?"
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, then said, "Alright. Let's go out and relax a bit, then come back to cultivate."
He stood up, released his wings, and walked in front of Hu Liena.
Hu Liena had already opened her arms. Jiang Chen quite naturally hugged her, and soon the two ascended to the mountaintop.
Jiang Chen's Thunder Light Wings consumed a great deal of soul power, especially while carrying Hu Liena, so the two proceeded on foot.
Inside the Sunset Forest, there were many soul beasts, even thousand-year soul beasts. However, with Hu Liena and Jiang Chen's current strength, there was no need to fear them at all.
The two walked quickly. Jiang Chen had already diverted a small portion of his attention to the little black bird.
Inside the imperial palace, countless ministers gathered, heading toward the grand hall where the little black bird was perched.
From the discussions among these people, Jiang Chen learned that the morning court was about to begin.
His eyes lit up. When the emperor attended morning court, the crown prince would surely be present.
Sure enough, amid the greetings of the many ministers, his gaze quickly locked onto the crown prince.
The crown prince appeared to be in his twenties. Though his appearance was not as handsome as Jiang Chen's, he was still quite good-looking. He had a tall and upright figure, about one meter eighty, with long black hair neatly tied atop his head and hanging straight down his back. His entire person exuded a refined and gentle temperament.
"This should be Xue'er. At this time, she should have replaced Xue Qinghe," Jiang Chen thought to himself.
"Little Chen, what's wrong with you? Why are you grinning like an idiot?" Hu Liena waved her hand in front of Jiang Chen's eyes.
Jiang Chen snapped back to reality. "It's nothing. Let's hurry." With that, he dashed forward at full speed.
Hu Liena shook her head, unable to understand what Jiang Chen was thinking, and quickly followed.
After the two ate a meal in Heaven Dou City and conveniently bought some daily necessities, they returned to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Jiang Chen could sense Dugu Yan's position. Originally, he had considered sending her a stalk of immortal herb; after all, she was already his person.
But after thinking it over, he gave up. With Dugu Yan's talent of reaching only level thirty-one at seventeen years old, giving her an immortal herb would be far too wasteful.
After the two returned to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, they once again entered cultivation.
Hu Liena no longer had any reservations toward Jiang Chen. Though she still felt shy inside, she boldly displayed her figure in front of him.
Every few hours, she would come up once, after all, soaking in the water for too long was uncomfortable.
And Jiang Chen no longer avoided those brief, beautiful sights. Each time he boldly gazed, it made Hu Liena's heart tremble.
In this intangible way, the relationship between the two grew closer.
But Jiang Chen never made a move, and Hu Liena didn't dare go too far; after all, Jiang Chen had already scolded her once before.
In her heart, this little junior brother had already gained a trace of an awe-inspiring image.
...
Night fell. The two had a simple dinner together.
"Senior Sister, I have something to do tonight and need to go out. I might come back quite late," Jiang Chen said.
"Mm." Hu Liena responded with a sound and didn't ask further.
Jiang Chen released his wings and flew to the mountaintop. The little black bird also flew back and landed on his shoulder.
He quickly took out paper and pen, wrote some words on it: "Sister Xue'er, it's Little Chen. I'm at the south gate of Heaven Dou City. I want to see you once."
After writing, he rolled up the paper and stuffed it into the little black bird's beak.
"Go."
The little black bird flapped its wings and once again vanished into the night.
Jiang Chen did not linger either. He descended the mountain and headed toward Heaven Dou City.
He couldn't break into that palace compound, so the best way was to notify Qian Renxue to come out.
Through the little black bird, he had observed the crown prince for a whole day and confirmed that the crown prince was Qian Renxue. The fact that he knew Qian Renxue was something only Bibi Dong, Hu Liena, and Qian Daoliu knew.
So when Qian Renxue saw this note, she would definitely come out to meet him.
By the time he arrived at the city gate, the little black bird had already flown into the imperial palace, heading toward the crown prince's bedroom.
He had already figured out where Qian Renxue rested. Now, familiar with the route, he controlled the little black bird to fly to Qian Renxue's room and enter through the window.
"Who!" Qian Renxue let out a delicate shout, vigilantly raising her head, only to see a black little bird.
At that very moment, Jiang Chen, who had been waiting outside the south gate, suddenly felt his eyes bulge. With a "pfft," a stream of nosebleed sprayed out.
Due to absorbing a lot of fire poison and having a seductive Hu Liena by his side, his yang fire had been extremely vigorous lately.
At this moment, seeing the scene inside Qian Renxue's room, he could no longer maintain his composure.
As for those beautiful women's figures and such, I won't describe them. Everyone can imagine it, haha…
