Six days later.
Chu Ning once again encountered the Snow Leopard.
"Follow me."
The Snow Leopard was as straightforward as ever, without any superfluous words.
"Big brother."
The Di Yi prince looked at Chu Ning, his face full of reluctance.
"After you return, focus on developing well, and remember my words, 'Amass grain, build high walls, and claim kingship slowly.'"
Chu Ning patted the Di Yi prince's shoulder, and the prince nodded, "Rest assured, big brother, I've taken your words to heart."
"Hmm, if there's a chance in the future, I'll come to the Abyss to see you."
After briefly conversing with the Di Yi prince, Chu Ning followed the Snow Leopard toward the deeper regions.
...
...
The Snow Leopard's route wasn't through the Misty Path, but they encountered no other ferocious beasts. Chu Ning understood that either the Snow Leopard had cleared them out, or this area belonged to the Snow Leopard.
One day later.
