Luoguan City, outside Lai Fu Inn.
Lin Chuan took a deep breath and slowly walked along the bustling, crowded streets. Ever since the fog in the north gradually dissipated, this place had suddenly become bustling with activity.
"Boss, give me a bowl of wontons without chopped green onions." Lin Chuan said loudly.
"Okay! Please wait a moment, sir. Do you want to eat here or take it away?" the boss responded enthusiastically.
"Pack up." Lin Chuan answered briefly, then found an empty seat to sit down and began to look around curiously.
"Boss, what's special about this place?" Lin Chuan asked politely.
"Specialties? You're asking the right question!" the shopkeeper beamed with pride. "Go west from my shop, then turn left into the alley. Don't be fooled by its humble appearance; everyone here is a master of Kung Fu!"
Lin Chuan: “????”
"I'm asking what delicious food and fun things there are in the local area." Lin Chuan looked helpless.
"Sir, you're joking again, aren't you? We're right next to the northern border. If the fog hadn't dissipated recently, there wouldn't be many outsiders coming here on weekdays. As for food, we have what you can find everywhere. It's nothing special. As for entertainment, the only thing worth seeing is the small alley. Sir, you don't know what all the people in there are..."
The shopkeeper became more and more excited as he spoke, and the expression on his face became more and more excited, as if he was about to take Lin Chuan to the alley to see it for himself.
"..."
"Did this little alley give you money or do you owe it money and haven't paid it back?" Lin Chuan complained helplessly in his heart.
"Bingbing, come back with me to the Qiankun Dynasty to get married. We'll have all the resources we need. Why would we need to come to this desolate place in the North to look for some immortal ruins?"
"Please respect yourself, Your Highness!"
"Bingbing, listen to me..."
"A good dog doesn't block the road, get out of the way!"
Just when Lin Chuan was secretly complaining about the shopkeeper in his heart, suddenly, a fierce argument was heard from the street, breaking the slightly noisy but relatively stable atmosphere.
Lin Chuan subconsciously turned his head and looked around, his eyes searching eagerly, full of curiosity, hoping to quickly see where this commotion came from.
"Sir, here." The shopkeeper's face was full of excitement, and he was waving at Lin Chuan.
"?" Lin Chuan looked confused and walked over slowly, not knowing what was going on.
When I got closer, I saw that the shopkeeper had put down his work and was staring intently at the window next to him, as if he was afraid of missing out on something exciting.
Lin Chuan followed the shopkeeper's gaze and instantly understood what was going on. He immediately showed an expression of understanding and his lips curled up slightly.
"Oh~"
"Ha ha"
The two said nothing, but they understood each other tacitly. They smiled at each other and stared at the source of the hustle and bustle outside the window.
A young girl in a pale yellow dress was being rudely blocked by a man in a python robe. Her brows furrowed as she glared at the man in front of her with disgust. Meanwhile, the red-robed man's gaze was fixed on the girl, his expression as lewd as it could be, a sinister smile playing at the corner of his mouth.
They were surrounded by onlookers like Lin Chuan. Everyone stretched their necks, with curiosity in their eyes, waiting to see how the scene would develop next.
"Bingbing, stop making trouble. There are so many people watching us. Come back with me!"
"I told you, I didn't agree to this marriage contract, so you can marry whoever signed it!"
"Bingbing, my feelings for you are known to all. What good is it for you to stay in the Qingluan Holy Land? You can only be an inner disciple and will not be taken seriously. Come back to the Qiankun Dynasty with me, and you will be the Crown Princess, the future Empress of the Qiankun Dynasty!"
"Clang~" A crisp sword sound suddenly rang out, and a sharp sword with a shining cold light instantly appeared in front of the eldest prince.
"I'll say it again, get out!" The girl in the yellow skirt raised her eyebrows, her eyes full of disgust.
"Bingbing, this is inevitably a bit inappropriate, isn't it? How can you be wronged by marrying this prince? As the saying goes, it's the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. Your parents have agreed, do you want to be an unfilial daughter?" The eldest prince's face changed slightly. He took a small step back to avoid the cold sword in front of him, and said in a timid tone.
"You..." Seeing the man in front of her mention her parents, the girl in yellow skirt was so angry that she was shaking all over, her chest heaving violently, and her eyes almost spitting fire. She gripped the sword tightly in her hand, her fingertips turned white due to excessive force, and hatred surged in her heart. She wished she could swing the sword and chop the eldest prince into pieces immediately to vent her anger.
But when she thought that this was the area under the jurisdiction of the Canglong Holy Land, she knew that there were many things she could not do to the extreme, otherwise it would cause even greater trouble. So she suppressed her anger and did not take action immediately.
"Hey, buddy, doing something like this in broad daylight, bullying men and women, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
An enthusiastic melon eater couldn't bear to watch it anymore and couldn't help but intervene to persuade them.
"Judging from your attire, this brother must be a disciple of the Canglong Holy Land, right? This prince happens to have a good relationship with your Holy Land's Holy Son, Di Lin. I would like to ask this brother not to interfere in the affairs of my Qiankun Dynasty."
The eldest prince raised his chin slightly and spoke arrogantly. Although his words were somewhat polite, the warning in his eyes was obvious.
"So it's a family matter! Then I won't interfere. My name is Chen Qiang. When the eldest prince is free, you can come to the Canglong Holy Land to find me. Then we can have a drink and chat." When the enthusiastic friend heard that the eldest prince knew the Holy Son of his own holy land, he immediately lost his energy and hurriedly tried to smooth things over with a smile.
The human race's territory lies in the eastern part of the Qingluan Continent, led by four major sacred grounds. The Qingluan Sacred Land occupies the south, the Canglong Sacred Land to the north, the Xuanwu Sacred Land to the east, and the Baiyun Sacred Land to the west. These four sacred grounds protect the human race's territory with a surrounding force. Within their jurisdiction lie sects of all sizes, as well as immortal cultivation dynasties.
Luoguan City is located in the ruling territory of the Qiankun Dynasty, which is an immortal cultivation dynasty under the jurisdiction of the Canglong Holy Land and is a first-class force.

"Huang Ningbing?"
Lin Chuan looked at the girl in the yellow skirt who seemed a little helpless outside the street, and his mind couldn't help but think of the girl who helped him answer his questions on the day he became her apprentice.
"Hehehe, looks like it's my turn to take action!"
Lin Aotian Chuan let out a strange laugh and then walked straight out into the street.
"Where are you going, sir? The wontons will be ready soon."
"Of course I'm going to be a hero and save the beauty. Can you bear to see a..."
"But just now, you were the one who was watching the most enthusiastically."
"..."
Lin Chuan paused, choked and speechless, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his righteous look and continued to rush towards the direction of the girl in the yellow skirt outside the street.
