Unsheathed

After arriving at Dragon Head Ferry Station, they settled down at an immortal inn with abundant spiritual energy. There was a plaque with the character "Kingfisher" hanging above the entrance.

Chen Ping'an spent his money generously in a rare scene, directly asking for a premium residence that surprisingly came with a lotus pond, with the lotus leaves extending out of the water and as large as plates. There were still pearl-like beads of water on the lotus leaves following the light drizzle, and the gentle breeze carried their fragrance throughout the residence, refreshing one's mind.

Qi Jinglong would always use official documents and passports under a pseudonym when he traveled outside the mountains, and he would also channel illusion techniques whenever he arrived at bustling locations.

Right now, Qi Jinglong had carried a chair over to sit in front of the lotus pond. Sui Jingcheng did the same, taking off her veiled hat and carrying a chair over to sit nearby. She continued to hold the hiking pole as she started to meditate and perform breathing techniques.

There was a small boat moored on the side of the pond.

Qi Jinglong silently gazed at the lotus pond, with his hands lightly clenched into fists and placed on his knees.

Chen Ping'an had already started to cultivate in seclusion.

Qi Jinglong was an official immortal at the Nascent Tier, and apart from reading books and comprehending principles, his admission of being so-called distracted from cultivation was only in comparison to the two cultivators ranked above him.

Qi Jinglong's knowledge was quite wide-ranging, yet he still possessed remarkable expertise in all the different areas. He had casually drawn a formation in the past, and this had been enough to trap Yang Ningzhen from the Esteemed Mystery Department's Lofty Cloud Palace. One had to realize that back then, Yang Ningzhen's mastery of immortal techniques had been superior to that of even his younger brother, Yang Ningxing, an innate Dao talent.

It was because of this that Yang Ningzhen had resolutely decided to change paths and practice martial arts instead. At the same time, he had essentially given up his right to inherit the Esteemed Mystery Department's Lofty Cloud Palace. However, Yang Ningzhen had surprisingly managed to forge an impressive martial arts path for himself, enjoying great fortune thanks to his initial misfortune.

In any case, Qi Jinglong was most familiar with cultivating in seclusion.

Regardless of how much commotion Chen Ping'an caused, and no matter how tumultuous the fluctuations of his aura were, not a single ripple could escape from this premium residence in the inn.
