Princess Cang Yue

The next morning Wu Chen woke up very early, he had already packed his things, so he was ready to leave.

Everything seemed ordinary, it was very early, so it was normal for there to be no other people along the way, but when he was about to pass through the exit of New Moon Profound Palace, a gentle voice greeted him from behind saying:

"Junior brother Wu, where are you going, leaving without even saying goodbye to your senior sister?" Turning to look, he saw Lan Xueruo, her beautiful appearance along with her charming voice made her an immortal fairy.

"Senior Sister Lan, it's too early, what are you doing here? And how did you know I was leaving today?" Wu Chen asked, of course he knew the answer, but he wanted to tease this beautiful woman.

He also wondered why she would go so far, other than Yun Che, he didn't have considerable interaction with her, but still her attention was stolen by him up until that point.

"That, I..."

"No problem, did you just come because you wanted to say goodbye?" She wanted to explain herself after hearing Wu Chen's question, but sensing her embarrassment, he decided to change the subject.

"Not just for that...Actually I...Could I go with you? I've always wanted to venture out a little, since I was little I never went out much." She said a little embarrassed, she wasn't good at lying or withholding something.

"As expected of the only princess in our empire, right? Your highness Cang Yue."

Hearing her words, Wu Chen just wanted to end the farce soon, she is indeed his favorite character in the work, but he doesn't want to manipulate her in any way, if something has to happen, let it be naturally.

"You! So you knew, when? How?" She said a little scared and panicked, she was too honest to be able to hide her surprise, so she didn't even try to make a fool of herself.

"Could you calm down? It was actually pretty easy to guess, after all Palace Chief Qin couldn't be polite enough to be respectful to a junior."

Wu Chen replied naturally, he didn't have time to see something happen since he was only cultivating behind closed doors, but she wouldn't think about it due to surprise, it was just a small insignificant detail after all.

"So what do you intend to do?" She asked curiously after calming down, what Wu Chen said made perfect sense.

"I don't intend to do anything, I'll just go on my way, we'll meet in about three months in the imperial city... And don't worry, no one will know this from my mouth." Wu Chen replied and was about to turn around and leave again.

"Wait, about my request..." Seeing that Wu Chen was leaving, she spoke aloud.

"The answer is no, I will do some training while traveling, I will face many profound beasts and maybe even bandits, and as I am weak and inexperienced, I cannot protect you, but in the future it may happen, I like you Anyway, see you in three months."

Wu Chen said as he set off at high speed. After he reached the True Profound Realm, his speed increased many times over, even running he can reach surprising speed.

"Did he say he likes me?" As she watched Wu Chen's back slip away, Lan Xueruo unconsciously muttered, even feeling a little lost.

Soon he was gone, and then she came to her senses, her image as a sympathetic but serious veteran soon restored.

"Princess, how was it? Did he reject you?" At that moment another figure appeared, this one was Qin Wuyou.

"Yes, but his motives are quite reasonable, and as the elder saw, he knows my identity, yet he still didn't try to approach me and receive benefits that I myself was willing to give him to keep him under me. ." She replied with a determined face.

"This is really a unique young man, we should go." Qin Wuyou replied before they both left the venue.

Meanwhile Wu Chen stopped and went to the Black Moon Merchant Guild, even though it was still very early, the place was already open, in fact it never closes, they just change employees, good deals can come at any time.

Wu Chen had already completely disguised his hair and face, and when he walked in, he took on the same appearance he wore on his visit over a month ago.

"Hello dear guest, what are you looking for in our Black Moon Merchant Guild, buy or sell?" As soon as he entered he was quickly attended to by one of the employees.

"Hello, I want to buy." Wu Chen replied.

"What does the distinguished guest want to buy? Our guild has a little bit of everything." The attendant said next.

"I would like information about a certain group of bandits." Wu Chen added after hearing what the attendant said.

"Distinguished guest, I will need to call the person in charge, wait for me for a moment." Hearing that what Wu Chen wanted was information, the attendant quickly left to call someone else.

A few moments later, he returned accompanied by an old man, that was Pu He, the leader of this branch, Wu Chen had seen him before.

"Fellow cultivator, it's been a while, come, accompany me, let's talk in a more suitable place." The old man was very polite, the impression Wu Chen left on him was really deep.

Wu Chen followed him, they both went to the second floor, the old man asked him to sit down and a servant served tea for them both, and then he left.

"Fellow cultivator, what kind of information do you want, and what group of bandits would that be?" Pu He asked Wu Chen as he calmly sipped his tea.

"I want the location of the Black Dragon Bandit Group, I know you probably have this information, if you have a map it will be even better." Wu Chen said.

Hearing this the old man was not surprised, but thoughtful, so the doomsday of those bandits finally arrived, knowing the strength of this man in front of him, he instantly imagined that someone had hired him to exterminate them.

If he knew that Wu Chen only wants their location because it's close to the Phoenix Remnants' village, what would his reaction be?

"Yes, I do have a map containing the location, and all the information you need to know, I am willing to sell it, but what does a fellow cultivator offer for such a thing? Information is not sold for money." Pu He said while making an expression of anticipation.

"Is that right, in that case, five Heaven level pills are enough?" Seeing that the old man wanted something of greater value than money, Wu Chen didn't care, he just made an offer next.

"What pills would those be?" Pu He asked, Wu Chen then just took out five vials containing one pill each, they were the dragon blood pills he refined not long ago. They were called by him Draconic Essence Pills.

Seeing the pills and checking their quality, the old man's eyes lit up, he then said:

"Alright, alright, deal done, here's the map and all the information obtained by our merchant guild."

Wu Chen didn't care about the old man's gaffe, he just took what belonged to him and said goodbye. Seeing that Wu Chen was leaving, the old man didn't bother to send him out, he just started to calculate the profit these could bring him.
