Chapter 40: Brothers and Sisters

Half a month later, at the gates of Jin City, two men on high horses slowly entered the city, the younger of them looking around, seemingly curious about everything around him.

The older, middle-aged man sat on his horse with his eyes closed, as if the outside world had nothing to do with him.

If you tell others to guess and say that one of them is an immortal cultivator, I'm afraid everyone will think it's the middle-aged man.

Then the middle-aged man opened his eyes and looked at the young man who was looking around, smiling helplessly and saying, "Brother Xu, you and I have already arrived at the border of Quzhou, but after looking for people to ask, no one even knows where this Kaiyang Fortress is.

That's right, those two people who just entered Jin City were Xu Mu and Li Yanmo, the two of them rushed all the way from Yizhou to Quzhou, taking only half a month.

It was mainly because Li Yanmo was eager to cultivate the truth and wanted to see Xu Mu's master quickly that he pulled him along to keep going fast.

However, the map only showed the approximate location of Kaiyang Fortress, which was in the middle of Quzhou, but there was no specific description of the location, and the duo inquired with the mortals in Quzhou, but found nothing.

Xu Mu smiled unconcernedly and said, "This place is mostly associated with Immortal Cultivators as well, so it's understandable that Brother Li couldn't inquire about it, but it doesn't really matter."

"Oh? Could it be that Brother Xu has other methods?" Li Yanmo asked curiously.After more than half a month together, Li Yanmo found that Xu Mu did not have the rumoured attitude of a person cultivating immortality, and the relationship between the two had become much more friendly, becoming a forgotten friend.

Xu Mu nodded and said, "I saw on the map my master gave me that there is a marketplace near this Jin City that is a trading place for cultivators, so we'll just go there later and ask around.

Li Yanmo was stunned by his words, obviously not knowing where Xu Mu was talking about this market, but he still had the sense not to ask any more questions.

However, he turned around and said, "Brother Xu, when I first met you, although you were calm and steady, you had a sense of twilight. Why is it that after half a month, you've become much more energetic?"

That's right, when Li Yanmo first met Xu Mu, although he had already reached the fourth level of qi cultivation, he knew that there was no hope of building a foundation in his life, and it would be difficult for him to even reach the tenth level of qi cultivation, so he naturally had a bit of a twilight mood on weekdays.

But after receiving the mysterious porcelain disc, Xu Mu can be said to be full of confidence in his own cultivation path.

With hope, people naturally become energetic, and Xu Mu is in such a state now.

However, all of these changes are subtle, and Xu Mu himself did not notice it when he heard Li Yanmo say it, only to find that the matter of cultivation had long since begun to affect his state of mind.

When he thought about it, Xu Mu couldn't help but smile and say, "It's all right, it's just that I happened to untie a knot in my heart, and I have Brother Li to thank for that!"Thank me?" Li Yanmo froze at his words and pointed at his nose, seeing that Xu Mu had nothing more to say, he didn't ask any further questions, just smiled and shook his head.

Only to hear him continue, "But in my brother's opinion, that's the way you should be, after all, you're still young. In fact, when my brother saw you before, he thought you were already in your thirties!"

"Really?" Xu Mu was stunned by his words, pointing at his nose and laughing, not expecting Li Yanmo to actually be able to misunderstand his age so much.

To put it mildly, Xu Mu had grown up in a mountain village since childhood, his skin was already a bit tanned, coupled with the old age look he had learned from Liu Yan, an ordinary person who didn't see the boyish fluff on his face would be afraid to think he was a thirty year old man.

Between the two of them talking and laughing, they came to the door of an inn, the little two saw this and hurriedly greeted the front and said, "Are you two customers to beat the rush or stay in the shop?"

"Hehe, you take the horses of both of us down and feed them well, remember, use the best quality grass! Then give me two people to two catties of beef, one catty of soju ...," Li Yanmo said as if he was counting.After saying that, Li Yanmo also threw a silver ingot to the second, the second saw the silver, immediately looked for someone to lead the horse down, will welcome the two into the inn.

Xu Mu see Li Yanmo a familiar old geezer style, but will be his behaviour and attitude in the heart, not to mention their own future will have to learn to use.

Although the world of mortals is different from the world of cultivation, but human nature is still similar, Xu Mu went out for the first time to venture, of course have to learn more and more to see.

Two people on the first floor to find a window seat, not long after the wine and food on all, the two people eat while chatting, but also happy.

Suddenly, Xu Mu's eyes froze, staring at the two diners who had just gone up to the first floor, looking at their dress, it seemed that they had also come from abroad, a dusty look.

The two also noticed Xu Mu's gaze, and one of the slightly older men even nodded and smiled kindly at Xu Mu.

Seeing this, Xu Mu also smiled and looked away.On the contrary, it was a fellow beside the other party, who was obviously a woman disguised as a man, who, after noticing Xu Mu's gaze, glared at him viciously as if he wanted to eat someone.

"Brother Xu?" Li Yanmo, who was standing next to him, saw that Xu Mu's expression was different and called out to him curiously.

Xu Mu smiled and waved his hand, and after having a drink with Li Yanmo, he said, "Brother Li, my brother is a bit incapable of drinking, so why don't we stop here today?"

"Hehe, good!" Li Yanmo smiled carelessly, and in a short while, he and Xu Mu settled the bill and returned to the guest room.

The two of them returned to the guest room and sat down before Li Yanmo curiously asked Xu Mu, "Brother Xu, what's wrong with those two right now?"

Xu Mu nodded and said, "If I'm not mistaken, those two should be cultivators as well, and their cultivation levels are both much higher than mine.

Cultivators could actually sense each other easily if they did not intentionally hide their cultivation levels from each other, but they could only sense an approximation.

If they wanted to know each other's exact levels, they could only use the Heaven's Eye Technique to check, but that would also reveal the person they were checking on.Casually checking someone else's cultivation was a big taboo in the cultivation world, and Xu Mu would obviously not do that.

However, Xu Mu had seen a lot of cultivators in Tailing Mountain and was familiar with the fluctuations in spiritual energy of cultivators from different realms, so he was able to make a rough estimate of the strength of the two.

The man was at least above the tenth level of qi cultivation, while the young woman's cultivation was similarly above the seventh level of qi cultivation.

Either of them would have a higher cultivation level than Xu Mu.

Li Yanmo was stunned by his words and subconsciously said, "Since that's the case, why don't you ask them directly about the location of Kaiyang Fortress?

Xu Mu smiled helplessly at his words and said, "I wanted to, but the woman among them seemed to be quite suspicious of outsiders and was unwilling to talk to me."

"Oh? That person is actually a woman, no wonder I see that her appearance is a bit strange." Li Yanmo was stunned by his words, then smiled and said, "Since that's the case, it seems inevitable that we have to go to the workshop Brother Xu spoke of!"
