Chapter 182 - Arriving in Nanwu City

In short, the two of them could only struggle to keep up with the two teams in front.

Wan’er saw her daddy flying at the front of the team.

She asked Zhao Tianqian carefully.

“Old Senior, can we surpass my daddy and the others?”

Zhao Tianqian asked back.

“Why do we have to surpass them!”

The playful little girl raised her arms and shouted.

“No reason, just to fight for our honor!”

The old Taoist priest beamed with joy.

This little girl was to his liking. As expected of the person who was qualified to be his disciple-in-law.

He said to He Xiangjiang and Wan’er.

“Sit tight. I’m going to speed up!”

He Xiangjiang was about to dissuade Wan’er from being so competitive since safety was the most important thing.

Before he could say anything, his master told him to sit firmly.

The young Taoist priest could only grab Wan’er’s clothes tightly, afraid that he would fall.

Zhao Tianqian also sat upright.

Then, he injected spiritual energy into the white crane, indicating that it could be faster.

The white crane received the order immediately.

With a whoosh, it directly dashed out.

Its speed was so fast that He Xiangjiang’s lotus crown was almost blown away by the wind several times.

Wan’er was at the front, shouting fearlessly.

“Awesome!”

Liu’er was still looking at the clouds when suddenly a white thing flashed in front of her eyes.

She rubbed her eyes, thinking that she had seen wrongly.

Yan’er asked.

“Is that Wan’er and the others?”

Jiang Ping nodded.

Liu’er listened to Yan’er’s words and confirmed that she had not seen them wrongly.

“How can they fly so fast!”

Yan’er said to Jiang Ping with some displeasure.

“Daddy! You don’t need me to tell you what to do, right!”

Jiang Ping was stunned for a moment, then he nodded.

Then, he urged his spiritual energy and ordered the white crane under his feet to accelerate.

Jiang Ping was very helpless. His second daughter had always liked to compete with Wan’er to be the eldest sister since she was young.

She wouldn’t be happy if he didn’t allow her to compete with them.

Therefore, when Yan’er spoke, Jiang Ping knew that they would arrive at Nanwu City much earlier than planned.

Jiang Ping’s crane also rushed out.

Qiu Chi pointed to the front and shouted at Lei Jingyun.

“Old Lei, look, why are they suddenly speeding up…”

Lei Jingyun looked over.

He saw the two white cranes in front flying at an extremely fast speed.

Soon, they disappeared from their sight.

Lei Jingyun was stunned.

What should he do now? It would be dark before he could reach Nanwu City!

Lei Jingyun sighed and said.

“There’s no other way. Let’s take it slow.”

“Fortunately, Mayor Lu has prepared a map for us…”

In the sky, an old white crane was carrying the two of them in the clouds. They were flying unsteadily in the sky…

Jiang Ping and the old Taoist priest were constantly competing with each other.

If they were not afraid that the white cranes would die of exhaustion, they would have been able to move faster.

Originally, they were supposed to arrive at Nanwu City at sunset, but they arrived at noon.

The two white cranes landed outside Nanwu City.

Everyone jumped off the white cranes one after another.

After they steadied themselves, Li Sushang asked Jiang Ping.

“What should we do with these two white cranes?”

“We can’t just bring them along, right?”

“Isn’t it too eye-catching to enter the city?”

Jiang Ping smiled and said.

“Did you forget that the little ones still have a storage bracelet that they can keep living things in?”

Li Sushang suddenly came to a realization.

Jiang Ping called Wan’er and Yan’er over.

He told them to release the two auspicious beasts in their bracelets first.

First, it was because these little auspicious beasts had not come out for a long time.

Second, it was because they were afraid that if they put the white cranes together with them, they would fight.

The auspicious beast that belonged to Wan’er was called Bamboo, and Yan’er’s was called Mountain Stream.

The two little ones looked dispirited as soon as they were released, and they even looked a little resentful.

It was as if they were saying why they had locked them up for so long.

However, when the two little girls picked them up, their expressions became visibly joyful.

Jiang Ping put the two white cranes into the storage space.

Then, he said to the few of them.

“Let’s go into the city!”

Wan’er felt as if something was missing.

She looked around and found that there were no traces of Lei Jingyun and Qiu Chi.

“Where are Old Uncle Lei and Uncle Qiu?”

At this moment, Jiang Ping finally reacted.

He looked around and then looked at the horizon.

“They can’t be lost.”

“Forget about them. They have a map anyway. I gave Liu’er’s storage bracelet to them before we left.”

“Let’s go in first. Later they’ll come and find us.”

Everyone nodded and then went straight into the city.

Wan’er carried Bamboo and ran to the front to catch up with He Xiangjiang.

“Young Taoist priest, look, this is my… family!”

“His name is Bamboo.”

He Xiangjiang looked at the auspicious beast that looked like a wild boar and wanted to stay away from Wan’er.

“Wan’er, can you take him away from me? I’m afraid…”

The old Taoist priest looked at Bamboo in the little girl’s arms with great interest.

“Oh, it’s an auspicious beast. If I remember correctly, it should be the auspicious beast Dangkang.”

Wan’er’s eyes lit up, and she gave Zhao Tianqian a thumbs up.

“Old Senior, you know your stuff.”

“My two younger sisters and I, each of us have one auspicious beast.”

Wan’er took small steps and said proudly.

Zhao Tianqian also gave the little girl a thumbs up.

“You guys are really lucky!”

After entering the city gate, Liu’er and Yan’er kept dragging Jiang Ping around, wanting to take a stroll first.

Jiang Ping knew that these two little fellows didn’t have good intentions. They definitely wanted to spend money again.

However, under the coquettish attacks of the two little girls, Jiang Ping finally couldn’t resist and agreed to take them around first.

Jiang Ping took the little girls and Li Sushang to catch up with Zhao Tianqian in front and asked.

“Senior, we’re going to look around. Do you want to come with us?”

Zhao Tianqian stretched his body and said.

“You guys can go. I’m getting old, so I’ll find an inn to rest first.”

Jiang Ping was a bit suspicious. He’s getting old?

The battle in Yellow Clouds City that day was pretty awesome.

Since the old Taoist priest didn’t agree, Jiang Ping didn’t force him. He gave the old Taoist priest a pouch.

“Senior, please help us book a few rooms when you book the inn. I’ll be paying, so you can buy wine with the leftover money?”

The old Taoist priest took the pouch with a smile.

“Sure, sure, sure!”

Then, Jiang Ping wanted to leave with the three little girls.

When he called Wan’er, she unexpectedly refused Jiang Ping for the first time.

“Daddy, you guys go ahead. I want to find the inn with the Old Senior.”

Jiang Ping did not know whether to laugh or cry. This daughter of his was really uncultured!

Then, Jiang Ping looked at Zhao Tianqian. The old Taoist priest nodded, and only then did Jiang Ping feel at ease to leave with the other two little girls and Li Sushang.

On the way, Wan’er had been carrying Bamboo and walking backward. She kept explaining to Zhao Tianqian and He Xiangjiang about the origin of the auspicious beast in her arms.

Zhao Tianqian smiled at everyone and listened to Wan’er patiently.

He Xiangjiang deliberately slowed down his pace, wanting to distance himself from Wan’er a little.

The young Taoist priest who had stayed in the village since young would retreat a hundred meters when he saw a dog, not to mention this creature that looked like a fierce… wild boar?

Wan’er was talking enthusiastically and did not pay attention to her feet at all.

She was walking backward, and then she accidentally stepped on a stone and fell backward.

The old Taoist priest did not react in time either.

The little girl was lying on the ground with her hands on her waist.

And Bamboo, which was in her arms, was gone.
