The next morning, with only a small bag behind his back, he boarded a carriage straight towards the Jade City.
Two shadowy figures assigned by Zhou Mei's father tagged along with Yi Chen to ensure his safety throughout the journey.
'Well, additional protection is always welcome,' Yi Chen thought in a good mood while sensing the guards following his carriage discreetly.
Zhou Mei had already informed him about them, so when they greeted him at the sect's exit earlier, he wasn't taken by surprise.
A couple of hours later, the carriage made its way past the familiar streets of Jade City before finally stopping in front of a three-storeyed building with an eye-catching design.
"So this is the Supreme Pill Forging Guild's branch..." Yi Chen muttered the moment his eyes fell on the building.
Yi Chen craned his neck to look at the three-storey-high building, which for the most part had a similar design to most large commercial buildings in the city.
