Chapter 1517: Chapter 1537: Ao Li, Must Meet! _1

"Where are you planning to go now? Are you still going to the South Sea Myriad Glass Palace?"

"Go!"

Yao Xuanji was determined, "Although we have managed to escape temporarily, Weijiao obviously won’t give up the opportunity to kill me. Her people must be keeping an eye out everywhere, waiting for another chance to act."

"Even if we try to return now, it would be extremely dangerous. Our only option is to go to the South Sea and gain the support of Ao Li. As long as we have his protection, there won’t be any danger."

Lin Chen worriedly asked, "What if he doesn’t agree?"

Yao Xuanji had obviously thought about this, and replied: "My father has done him a favor. Even if he doesn’t want to get involved in this feud, he must ensure my safety. Otherwise, how will he explain to my father when he returns?"

Lin Chen thought about it and said, "Weijiao led people to ambush us here. Perhaps she has already guessed that you are going to find Ao Li. Continuing our journey might be dangerous..."

Zhong Quan suggested, "Elder Lei is not yet fully recovered. What if I handle this? Even if we meet enemies, I should be able to escape without much problem..."

Yao Xuanji shook her head, "As the daughter of a domain lord and the current acting domain lord, I can’t sneak around to meet Ao Li. It might make him think that the Immortal Palace has lost its power and is even less willing to get involved. Let alone take the side of the Immortal Palace..."

Lin Chen gave it some thought, "This problem isn’t too hard to solve. My Wind-Banner can hide people inside. The four of us easily attract attention, but if we reduce the number of people and apply some disguise, we won’t be easily recognized."

Yao Xuanji nodded agreeably and considered, "Elder Lei is injured, and I’m easily targeted. How about I enter the Wind-Banner with Elder Lei, and you disguise yourself and enter South Yuncity with Uncle Zhong? Then we’ll figure out the next steps."

"In a city with many people, it’s easy to hide. Besides, you have a spell that can conceal life force and breath. As long as we don’t show our faces, even if they have people searching for our information in the city, they definitely won’t find us."

Lin Chen laughed, "Once we’re in the city, we’ll find a way to get in touch with people from Wanli Palace. There’s no hurry, as long as they don’t detect us, they won’t know where we are."

"As for entering South Yuncity, we can disguise ourselves as merchants or others, and enter the city on a merchant ship openly and confidently."

Yao Xuanji laughed, "Speaking of escaping, you sure have a lot of experience."

Lin Chen laughed, "No choice. From the Human World to the Barren Wilderness, I’ve encountered many dangers. Escaping is what I do best. Otherwise, I would have been long gone."

Yao Xuanji nodded, "Alright, you can call the shots for our next move. We’ll follow your lead."

Lin Chen turned to look at Zhong Quan and Lei Zhenxiu. Both nodded their heads, showing their trust in him.

After all, if it weren’t for Lin Chen’s actions before, they might all be dead by now.

Lin Chen put Yao Xuanji and Lei Zhenxiu back into the Wind-Banner and set off again with Zhong Quan.

It’s not that Lin Chen wasn’t willing to let Zhong Quan hold the Wind-Banner and include him too. It’s just that after spending some time together, he found out that while Zhong Quan was powerful, he was straightforward and liked to be direct. He wasn’t good at cunning schemes and conspiracies.

In basic terms, he was a loyal subordinate of Domain Lord Yao Xiong, good for charging into battle, but not suitable for cunning schemes and conspiracies.

Zhong Quan was powerful, held a high position in the Immortal Palace, and was a big shot. Dealing with common folks didn’t sit well with him and he could easily raise suspicions.

Lin Chen originated from the common folks. Although he was now an immortal, deep down, he still wasn’t much different from when he was in the Human World.

Having disguised themselves and changed their appearances, the two of them entered Donghe City, which was a thousand miles away from South Yuncity.

In Donghe City, they rented a courtyard and stayed for a few days. Once Lei Zhenxiu’s injuries were mostly healed, the group set off on their journey again.

Lin Chen and Zhong Quan disguised themselves as guards of a businessman and entered South Yuncity flamboyantly on a commercial flying boat.

Confidently following the businessman, Lin Chen and Zhong Quan made their exit from the flying boat dock.

After only a few steps, Lin Chen felt like someone was watching him. Pretending to survey his surroundings, he casually swept his gaze around and spotted the man who was watching him.

The man was manning a calligraphy and painting stall, with written words and drawn paintings on display. Sitting leisurely in a chair, he guarded his booth while sipping tea and casting indifferent glances at everyone exiting the flying boat dock.

His gaze swept past the potbellied merchant in front of him, then across Lin Chen and Zhong Quan, but only for a brief moment, as if he didn’t consider them important.

His gaze lingered on the cultivators who were walking alone or in groups of two or three, especially the young female cultivators, pausing for a moment longer on them.

After a glance, Lin Chen retracted his gaze and nonchalantly followed the merchant into the city area.

The merchant was very familiar with the area and swiftly arrived at a large inn, directly renting an entire courtyard.

Lin Chen took out the Wind-Banner and let Yao Xuanji and Lei Zhenxiu out.

"Someone is watching the entrance of the flying boat dock. It must be Weijiao’s people..."
