Amid the puzzled gazes of the disciples, the flying demon beast finally departed, disappearing into the horizon.
Ji Xiaotian stood in front of an ancient hall, hands behind his back, watching them leave the entire time.
After a long while, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, his eyes full of relief, as he said, "Jinglan, Chen'er has truly grown up..."
...
Celestial Essence City.
This is the core of the Chu Kingdom, as well as the location of the Imperial Capital, nestled against mountains and rivers, endlessly prosperous, with a vast flow of people coming and going daily.
Led by the flying demon beast, three days later, Ji Chen and his two companions finally arrived here.
The Celestial Essence City today was noticeably more bustling than usual.
Because the annual alchemist examination was to take place here.
Experts from the major factions of the Chu Kingdom gathered here, eager to observe.
For any faction, alchemists have always been a highly sought-after profession.
