Chapter 1625: Chapter 1629: A New Journey, the Imperial City

The journey from East Capital City to the Imperial City spans several thousand kilometers.

Qin Tian packed his luggage, took his carefully selected five hundred guards, and along with Zhou Yang, Xiao Zhuang, Lin Yu, and Du Qiuniang, traveled in a Tiger Beast Carriage at a leisurely pace towards the Imperial City.

This time, Fan Bing did not accompany Qin Tian to the Imperial City.

To expand her growing elixir business, Fan Bing chose to stay in the East Capital City.

"You go ahead to the Imperial City and settle down. Give me a few months, and once I establish a branch of Qin’s Elixir Workshop there, I’ll move over."

This is what Fan Bing told Qin Tian, who wanted to take her along.

Qin Tian was worried about Fan Bing’s safety, so he wanted to leave Du Qiuniang behind to protect Fan Bing, but Fan Bing refused to agree.

In the end, Qin Tian had no choice but to select three hundred elite soldiers to guard the Qin Mansion, while repeatedly instructing Zhao Lanjin, Ye Kun, and Zuo Yuanhao to ensure Fan Bing’s safety.

Zhao Lanjin, understanding the pain of having his beloved in danger, vowed to Qin Tian that he would definitely protect Fan Bing.

True to his word, Zhao Lanjin moved his home directly opposite the Qin Mansion. Only then did Qin Tian feel completely at ease.

"Work well in East Capital City and be wary of any tricks from the City Lord Mansion."

When Zhao Lanjin, Ye Kun, and Zuo Yuanhao came to see Qin Tian off, Qin Tian gave them this low-key reminder.

The three nodded, and Zhao Lanjin said, "Boss, don’t worry. I’m in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage now, and I’ll lie low; I won’t provoke him."

Zuo Yuanhao said, "Rest assured, Governor, I will do my utmost to support Governor Zhao, and of course, we all eagerly hope that one day we can reunite with you in the Imperial City."

Qin Tian naturally understood the underlying meaning of Zuo Yuanhao’s words.

This deeply scheming young man knew the dreams within Qin Tian’s heart.

Qin Tian nodded, "I will work hard, let’s all strive together!"

...

As the sun rose in the east, Qin Tian’s entourage marched grandly towards the Imperial City.

Lin Yu and the other two each rode in a Tiger Beast Carriage, while Qin Tian shared one with Du Qiuniang.

In the carriage, Du Qiuniang said, "Master, you must be careful on your way to the Imperial City. I’ve been to Imperial City before; it’s huge... as big as an international metropolis on Earth, even bigger than Beijing."

"I heard that the Imperial City is full of intricacies, with all kinds of people. There are even spies from the Demon Clan and the Demon Clan mixed in there, so whether making friends or enemies, we must be cautious."

Du Qiuniang leaned on Qin Tian’s shoulder, softly reminding him.

Qin Tian looked at her and smiled, "It seems you have more experience to teach me now..."

"Qiuniang doesn’t dare to educate you, Master. Qiuniang is worried there might be danger in the Imperial City... Over there, masters are as common as clouds. Even those in the Longevity Realm have only made small achievements in Immortality Cultivation and are not considered strong."

Du Qiuniang blinked at Qin Tian and said, "In the Imperial City, the true powerhouses have achieved Feather Transformation Ascension, breaking through Longevity and entering the Immortal Path to become Small Immortals."

"Small Immortal..."

Qin Tian repeated these two words and took a deep breath, knowing that he was still a long way from the Small Immortal Realm. With his current cultivation entering the Imperial City, it was really unsafe.

"Looks like I need to intensify my cultivation; otherwise, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the Imperial City,"

Qin Tian silently urged himself.

Chirp chirp chirp!

Chirp chirp chirp!

Just as Qin Tian was contemplating his next cultivation plan, a rustling sound came from beneath the seat he shared with Du Qiuniang.

Hearing this noise, both Qin Tian and Du Qiuniang were taken aback and then laughed.

Chirp chirp chirp...

The sound continued, as if a saw was trying to cut a hole in the bottom of the carriage.

Du Qiuniang said to Qin Tian, "Master, if you don’t stop it, our carriage will be dismantled."

Qin Tian sighed and said helplessly, "Atai, can you be quiet? Are you trying to tear down our carriage?"

After he finished speaking, Atai, beneath the seat, seemed to ignore Qin Tian, continuing its mischief.

Qin Tian rolled his eyes in exasperation and had no choice but to reach out and grab the little creature from beneath the carriage.

"Awooo..."

Atai made an angered noise, glaring at Qin Tian with big eyes, as if accusing him of spoiling its fun.

"If you don’t behave, I’ll throw you out," Qin Tian said to Atai. "We’re going to the Imperial City, and if you don’t behave, we won’t take you."

"Woo woo woo..."

Hearing Qin Tian’s words, Atai immediately made a pleading sound, putting on a very obedient appearance.

Seeing this, Du Qiuniang couldn’t help but laugh and said, "Atai, be good. Master is just teasing you; don’t be afraid."

"Awoo awoo awoo..."

Upon seeing Du Qiuniang’s beaming smile, Atai’s eyes lit up, and it got so excited that it wriggled free from Qin Tian’s hands and leaped into Du Qiuniang’s embrace.

"Yikes, you little traitor?"

Qin Tian was startled but also laughed.

The first time Atai saw Du Qiuniang, it was scared, but now, over the past few days, it seemed to have developed a fondness for her.

Du Qiuniang held Atai in her arms and laughed, "Master, is this Atai really a Qilin Beast? I think it’s more like a pet dog..."

"Pet dog..."

Upon hearing Du Qiuniang’s comparison, Qin Tian was stunned. Suddenly realizing something, he turned his head to look at Atai in Du Qiuniang’s arms.

Sure enough, this rascal hadn’t changed and was doing the Tai-di-Tian action even in Du Qiuniang’s arms!

"Damn, you little devil, courting death!"

Qin Tian was furious.

Seeing Qin Tian’s expression, Du Qiuniang looked down at Atai in her arms and saw it was pulling the same trick, causing her to blush and then cover her mouth, laughing at Qin Tian...

Qin Tian was extremely embarrassed and said, "Qiuniang, go ahead and laugh if you want; why look at me?"

"Master, this... why do you keep teaching Atai these actions? It’s so improper..."

"Come on... did I teach it? Who says I did? I didn’t teach it!"

Qin Tian earnestly declared, "This rascal is obviously just like a poodle; it even does this to rocks. Should I be blamed for that?"

Seeing Qin Tian’s helpless expression, Du Qiuniang laughed even more happily, saying, "Haha, Qiuniang finally understands why Sun Wukong sprang from a rock, haha..."

"Eh..."

Qin Tian rubbed his head and looked down to see Atai still messing around in Du Qiuniang’s arms. He was both furious and embarrassed, quickly grabbing Atai and angrily said, "You little pervert, stay away from your sister Qiuniang. Only I can do such actions to her. You... get lost!"

Without further ado, Qin Tian opened the window and threw the still-unsatisfied Atai out.
