767 Hospitable

Hospitable

However, Wei Jianning’s expression was cold and aloof from the beginning to the end. She completely ignored the little fatty who was trying to be hospitable to her.

On the other hand, Ren Xiaomeng kept bickering with Xu Ming, full of laughter.

The carriage stopped beside the mountain stream, and everyone got off to rest.

Wei Jianning took Ren Xiaomeng and walked away, using the excuse of a girl to shake Xu Ming off.

He Chuan sat cross-legged by the pool alone, closing his eyes to rest.

The bored Xu Ming could only sulk alone and squat beside the carriage to eat his rations.

“Uncle Fu, are you sure Wei Jianning has the bloodline of a divine beast?” Xu Ming asked in a low voice as he chewed on his rations.

Along the way, he kept probing but did not feel anything special.

“It can’t be wrong! Although my Qilin blood is thin, it has a reaction to the bloodline of a divine beast. Wei Jianning definitely has the bloodline of a divine beast.” Uncle Fu explained.

Wei Jianning was only 15 or 16 years old, but she was already at the late stage of the Spirit Accumulation Realm. The few geniuses in the Imperial Capital were probably far behind him. If it wasn’t for the bloodline of a divine beast, how could he have reached such a level?

“If that’s the case, isn’t He Chuan stronger? Could he be a Life Cultivation Realm martial artist who had yet to reach the crown and also had the bloodline of a divine beast?” Xu Ming said,

“I couldn’t sense anything from this child, but the little girl has an even stronger bloodline power.” Uncle Fu could only smile bitterly.

“Ren Xiaomeng is ordinary. Uncle Fu, are you too old, and your eyes are blurry?” Xu Ming frowned and said unhappily.

When he returned to his room last night, Uncle Fu told him that Wei Jianning, who was beside He Chuan, had the aura of bloodline power. It was very likely that she had the bloodline of a divine beast.

The divine beast bloodline was very important to the Xu family’s next step, so Xu Ming discussed it with Uncle Fu and went with He Chuan and the other two.

He could befriend He Chuan and confirm the bloodline power in Wei Jianning’s body.

In the end, He Chuan looked like he didn’t want anyone to get close to him so he couldn’t be befriended at all.

Wei Jianning’s attitude was cold. Even if Xu Ming used his greatest charm and continued to offer his hospitality, he could not move this icy beauty.

Xu Ming’s plans almost all failed.

Now, Uncle Fu was telling him that the sharp-tongued little girl also had the bloodline of a divine beast, and it was even stronger than the one in Wei Jianning’s body. He had great doubts about Uncle Fu’s ability.

“Even if I’m old and blind, the Qilin’s blood won’t lie.” Uncle Fu took out the crystal bottle from his sleeve because Xu Ming didn’t believe him.

There was a drop of golden blood in the crystal bottle, and it was constantly emitting golden light.

The Qilin’s blood could sense the bloodline of a divine beast. The stronger the bloodline power, the stronger the golden light.

Just now, when He Chuan and the others weren’t paying attention, Uncle Fu had sneakily brought the Qilin blood close to Ren Xiaomeng. He discovered it was emitting a strong golden light, which was enough to prove that there was a strong bloodline power in Ren Xiaomeng’s body!

“Why don’t we go all out and directly knock the little girl unconscious and kidnap her?” Seeing Uncle Fu take out the evidence, the doubt in Xu Ming’s eyes faded a lot, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

“He Chuan is very powerful. I don’t have full confidence in taking him down. If I rashly attack, we might not be able to do anything!” Uncle Fu’s expression changed slightly as he quickly reminded.

“We can’t rope them in, nor can we snatch them by force. What else can we do? We can’t just let it go like this, right?” Xu Ming’s fat face immediately drooped as he complained.

Looking at the current situation, he could only put it aside for the time being.

He would wait until they arrived at the Imperial Capital before making another plan!

At that time, even if they snatched them, they would probably be unable to do anything to the Xu family!

It was really strange. What was He Chuan’s identity?

Why did everyone around him have the bloodline of a divine beast?

Divine Beast Bloodline was extremely rare. Usually, it would not appear even among millions of martial artists. However, at this moment, two appeared beside He Chuan, and they were all obedient to him, making Xu Ming jealous and envious.

In addition, Wei Jianning’s attitude towards He Chuan was completely different from her attitude towards him. The good impression he had previously had was completely gone.

After resting, everyone returned to the carriage and continued their journey.

In the next few days, Xu Ming continued to fawn Wei Jianning. He also became more polite to Ren Xiaomeng and asked about her well-being.

In the beginning, Ren Xiaomeng was not used to Xu Ming’s sudden change in attitude. She often made him speechless and awkward. However, as time passed, he felt bored and ignored Xu Ming.

Two days.

A black shadow as huge as a mountain suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

The Imperial Capital!

A thousand years ago, the Chu Clan rose up and established the Chu Country. Hence, the capital was also known as the Chu Capital.

Yanyang Empire!

Handan City was the capital city with over a thousand years of history. After thousands of years of development and expansion, it had long become a huge city that could accommodate tens of millions of people.

Furthermore, the entire Handan City was built in a square manner. The four walls were made of black gold meteoric iron. They towered into the clouds and were indestructible. It could be said to be impregnable.

The city gates alone were more than a hundred meters tall, and they were enough to crush the other cities of the Yanyang Empire.

The city gates were dozens of meters wide and were guarded by the imperial guards of the Yanyang Empire on both sides.

They had finally arrived at the capital!

He Chuan looked at the behemoth in front of him and heaved a sigh of relief.

Are you ready to face the storm?

The rules of the imperial city were strict, and one had to walk to and from the city gate. Therefore, Wei Jianning and the others got out of the carriage and walked with He Chuan.

Although the imperial capital was close at hand, it took them half a day to reach the city gate.

One had to pay a hundred taels of silver to enter the city.

Xu Ming, who was extremely attentive, walked forward and paid the fees for everyone.

Wei Jianning pulled Ren Xiaomeng into the city. Looking at the dazzling and bustling city, she was at a loss.

She had long heard that Handan City was the center of the country and was extremely prosperous. It was indeed worthy of its reputation!

“Is this the capital? It’s really big!” Ren Xiaomeng also looked around curiously.

The bustling streets were extensive, enough to accommodate more than ten horse carriages driving side by side. It was even wider than the He family’s mansion.

The shops on both sides were full of flowers, and all kinds of goods were dazzling.

Although it was close to evening, the streets were still bustling with activity. The lights were brightly lit, as bright as day.

There was an endless stream of traffic.

“If you’re free, I can bring you guys around. Although the Xu family isn’t in the capital, I’m considered half a citizen of the capital, so I’m very familiar with this place!” On the other hand, Xu Ming looked as if he was used to it.

The two of them ignored him.

“Recently, the Cangyun Academy and Teng Sword Sect are recruiting disciples. If you don’t make a reservation in advance, finding a place to stay will be challenging.” The two of them still ignored him and looked at He Chuan instead.

“Young Master Xu, have you made a reservation in advance?” He Chuan looked at Xu Ming indifferently.

To be honest, he did not have a place to stay.

He also didn’t expect that he needed to make a reservation in advance to stay in an inn in the Imperial City.

“My mother is the eldest daughter of the Lin family in the capital. I’m considered half a member of the Lin family. They’ve already arranged a place for me to live.” Xu Ming said proudly.

“I think you don’t have a place to stay, but I can make one.” Xu Ming had an idea and looked at Wei Jianning.

“How are the three of us going to live?” Ren Xiaomeng pouted and complained.
