The next day, at the crack of dawn, two Flaming Sun Chasing Horses dashed out of Ling Wu City, carrying Long Yan and Ah Man on their backs.
The journey to the Imperial City of Tianwu was far, even with the Flaming Sun Chasing Horses capable of traveling 9,000 miles a day, it would still take at least ten days to get there.
At this point, Ah Man's body had become even more robust, measuring up to 2.5 meters tall. Long Yan looked like a child in front of him.
Last night, Long Yan had specifically asked Ah Man if he was willing to go to the Imperial City of Tianwu, which to his surprise, Ah Man agreed to.
"Thank you."
Ah Man suddenly looked at Long Yan and, breaking his silence, spoke.
"What did you say?"
Long Yan was startled but quickly burst into laughter, "Damn, if you didn't speak, I'd think you were mute! There's no need to thank me. If you think highly of me, we can be friends."
"Friends?"
Ah Man kept repeating the word before finally nodding.
