Chapter 618 - 503: A Narrow Road Meeting + - 504: Strike First to Gain the Upper Hand
Upon arriving at Yuntai Town, three Cloud Swallowing Horses had already been prepared.
This clearly displayed Su Lianxue’s attentiveness, as well as her dedication to her beloved disciple.
The Cloud Swallowing Horse is not considered a Demon Horse, but it has been nursed and fed since it was young, which has awakened some spiritual wisdom in it, making it smarter than the average Thousand-mile Horse – it is one of the signature mounts of the Cloud Water Sect.
Zhou Ping’an chose a majestic dark green horse, Lin Huaiyu rode a white horse, and Bai He, not too particular, picked a brown horse, expressing slight disdain: "The speed is still a bit slow; it is far less efficient than if we were to fully employ our movement technique to travel..."
Thinking of the enormous consumption of True Yuan and the ease of mental exhaustion when using the movement technique to its full extent, Bai He ridiculed himself:
"If only there were sufficient spiritual energy here, then catching a flying Demon Beast to ride would truly be comfortable."
Zhou Ping’an, however, was quite content.
He normally didn’t even have a Cloud Swallowing Horse to ride.
When he last left the mountain, his identity status wasn’t high enough, and even if Su Lianxue wanted to request a horse from the sect for him, she couldn’t meddle without cause, to avoid criticism from other Elders who might accuse her of private bias, favoring her own interests.
But now it was different. With the combat power and potential that Zhou Ping’an had demonstrated on the mountain, even if he didn’t accompany him down, the ambitious Elders and disciples would not want to offend him without good reason.
Therefore, it wasn’t difficult to get a few prized horses approved by the Sect Leader.
