Uncle Ding waited for a moment, "Young Master asked if you wanted to ask something?" Chen Chuan replied, "Yes." Uncle Ding said, "Young Master said, if you have any questions, why not come to Mo Tie Mountain for a cup of tea first?" Chen Chuan nodded, "Okay, I'll be there soon." More than an hour later, inside the Cao Family Manor on Mo Tie Mountain. It often rained with thunder these past few days. When Chen Chuan arrived, it was right after the rain, and the sky seemed to have been washed, clear and blue, with only a few wisps of clouds occasionally at the edges. The sunlight shone on the flowers and plants in the courtyard, and a refreshing breeze blew, causing the water droplets hanging on the branches and leaves to fall into the moist soil, bringing with it a fragrance of vegetation. Chen Chuan sat in front of a sandalwood table, with a jade porcelain teacup placed before him. Wisps of heat rose from it, and the green tea leaves floating inside were clearly visible. Cao Guiqi sat opposite him, still dressed in the attire of an old times scholar, wearing a light cyan wide robe and a jade-white hairpin in his hair. He said, "It's been almost two months, and I expect Junior Brother Chen, you are about to break through." Chen Chuan said, "Senior Brother Cao , I can feel that I seem to be standing at the threshold of a breakthrough. As long as I make up my mind, I can cross it. However, I feel in my heart that something is not yet complete." Cao Guiqi said, "Are you using old times methods to break through? If you have this feeling, it means that although your body is ready, your Spirit has not yet reached the point where it can fully integrate. Subconsciously, you should still have something you want to do but haven't been able to accomplish, leaving a trace of concern in your mind. Only by sweeping away these things can your Spirit be completely sublimated." He looked at Chen Chuan , "This is a good thing, because most people find it difficult to detect the disharmony within, and they cross over rashly or eagerly without being fully prepared, congratulating themselves on being able to cross that boundary so easily." He said faintly, "Little do they know that they will have to spend more time correcting those mistakes in the future, and this one wrong step may be impossible to turn back." Chen Chuan thought for a moment, then nodded slightly. He looked up, "Thank you, Senior Brother Cao , for telling me. I think I understand now." Cao Guiqi nodded, "Since you're here, have a cup of tea before you leave. This aged tea may not be as refreshing and sweet as new tea, but it is mellow and rich, allowing people to savor it longer and calm their minds." Chen Chuan thanked him, reached out, picked up the cup, and took a sip. At the moment he drank it, his mouth and cheeks were filled with a rich fragrance, which, together with the surrounding aroma of vegetation, calmed his fluctuating thoughts, and the fusion of man and the outside world seemed to become infinitely clear at this moment. He sat quietly, looking at the branches and leaves and vegetation swaying in the breeze, feeling the rhythm of nature. He sat there for a long time, and after drinking several cups of tea, the sunlight was gradually obscured by the scattered clouds that drifted from somewhere. Uncle Ding came over and said, "Young Master, it's going to rain again, and it may be heavy this time." Cao Guiqi said, "Junior Brother Chen, I won't keep you any longer. Go back early." Chen Chuan stood up and bowed slightly to Cao Guiqi , "Senior, goodbye, thank you for your guidance." After speaking, he followed Uncle Ding out. Cao Guiqi picked up his teacup again and sipped slowly, looking at the sky with infinitely distant eyes, as if savoring the past and looking forward to the future. Chen Chuan walked out of the Mansion. After confirming that these were not problems during the breakthrough process, he completely settled his mind. As for the things he felt he wanted to do but hadn't done, there were quite a few, but the one with the most Influence recently was only one. It's time to solve it. When he arrived at the Jiade car, a trace of raindrops fluttered on his cheek, feeling a little cool, but exceptionally refreshing. He looked up and saw that in just a moment, the sky, which had been filled with sunshine, was already covered with dark clouds. Reaching out to open the car door, he sat inside. Just as he closed the door and fastened his seat belt, the rain began to fall heavily, becoming dense as if in just a few breathing spaces. The wipers started moving, and as the car started, the headlights pierced through the heavy rain like two pillars of light, and then the car slowly drove out of the Mansion's front yard. Sёarᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. After leaving Mo Tie Mountain, he used the Boundary Token to extract the Bureau's records of Wei Wusheng's crimes. The location where the Pei brothers were killed was found a few days later, but because he was busy with Cultivation, he didn't pay much attention to it. However, seeing it now made him a little surprised. This place was actually the block where the Supernatural Entity haunted the hotel. He couldn't help but wonder, when did Wei Wusheng appear there? Was it before or after he solved the Supernatural Entity? After thinking carefully, he felt it was likely the former, because few people approached places where Anomalies existed, and because of the interference of the Supernatural Entity, much of the Boundary Token information could not be transmitted normally. This was a perfect hiding place. If that was the case, perhaps when he solved the Supernatural Entity that day, Wei Wusheng was there, just across the street from him. As he was thinking, suddenly a car sped past his car, splashing a large amount of water, and the front was instantly blurred. With the shaking of the wipers, the water on the car window was quickly wiped away. He glanced up and, with his keen Senses, clearly saw the license plate number of the rapidly departing vehicle through the rain and fog hundreds of meters away. He immediately reported the speeding car's license plate number to the city security department. In the heavy rain, he returned to the Mysterious Palace Tower all the way, took the elevator to the forty-ninth floor, and when he pushed open the door of the dormitory, a chirp came from inside. He looked over and saw that in a comfortable nest built of wicker and silk feathers, that thing was poking its head out and calling to him, and also flapping its wings at him, as if greeting him. This thing grew very quickly. In just over ten days, its size had increased a lot. Now it looked much prettier than before, with richer colors in its feathers. Of course, its food intake had also increased a lot. Because every time the sun rose, this thing would emit a melodious cry towards the sun, so he gave it a name, called "Zhao Ming ". Zou Handan said this was a failed work and useless. Perhaps its only value was as an ornamental, but he discovered that "Zhao Ming " was not good in other places, but its intelligence was relatively high. The most obvious thing was that after he gave it a name, it clearly knew it was referring to itself, and it would respond when called, and when he was doing his daily training, it would honestly stay aside without making any noise. It would also unpack the food prepared for it and eat it by itself. It would only make some sounds and movements when he was relaxed, and it would make a sound whenever he went in and out to show its presence. He walked over, teased it, and changed some water in Zhao Ming's nest. While he was busy, he was thinking about the next place Wei Wusheng might appear. If he took the initiative to look for him, it might not be useful, so it would be better to give the other party a chance to come to him. He believed Wei Wusheng knew he would definitely come and continue the unfinished battle from last time. After changing the water and putting nutritional fluid in the food trough, he stroked Zhao Ming's smooth feathers a few times, then turned to the window. From a distance, he could see a bright pillar of light rising into the sky. That was where the arena stadium was located. Various advertisements and Arena tournament broadcasts were constantly playing on the light pillar. Even standing inside the building, he seemed to be able to hear the noisy sounds coming from there. He thought for a while, put his hand on the Boundary Token, and sent a message to Tan Zhi . "Tan classmate , are you still watching Arena tournament lately?" Tan Zhi contacted him proactively after a while. "Yes, I've been going this past month. Let me tell you, the competition is really exciting. The contestants in this competition are not simple. Although it's only the middle stage now and hasn't entered the second half, the main qualifying contestants have already been determined. These two are currently in the most intense elimination battle. Chen classmate , why are you suddenly asking about this? Do you want to go too?" Chen Chuan said, "Yes, my Cultivation progress has slowed down these two days, so I plan to take some time to go and see." When Tan Zhi heard him say this, he hurriedly said, "If it's slowed down, there's no need to rush. It may be self-adjustment. It's good to come out and relax. Why don't we go together tomorrow? Um, let's take the school's prepared car, so it's safer." Chen Chuan asked, "Is it to guard against Wei Wusheng ?" Tan Zhi sighed, "Yes, I originally thought the Pei brothers were very powerful, but they were killed by Wei Wusheng . They were really famous in name only. I don't expect anything from other bounty hunters anymore." Chen Chuan thought in his heart that it might not be that the Pei brothers were not good enough, but dealing with normal people. Tan Zhi said, "Now, besides the Academy, the Martial Combat arena hall is actually the safest place. It concentrates the strongest Security guard in Central City. Not to mention a single Wei Wusheng , even a large company's Security guard force can't break through. I heard that some of the passengers from the original cruise ship have chosen to live near here." Chen Chuan nodded, "Okay, then I'll go with you tomorrow." After chatting for a while longer and agreeing on a time, he ended the call. When he arrived He raised his hand to respond to Tan Zhi's wave from inside the car, and at the same time contacted Wu Bei , "Brother Wu, these two days, don't conceal my whereabouts. If someone is investigating me, pay attention to where they're coming from, but don't alarm them." Wu Bei immediately said, "Understood." He suddenly became excited, because having cooperated with Chen Chuan many times, he felt that something was up this time, and it was a big deal! After Chen Chuan got into the car, he came to Tan Zhi , sat down, and greeted him. After a while, all the student who were going to watch the match were present. The car door was moved and slowly drove towards the arena stadium. Because there was a lot of traffic on the road, the bus Speed was slow. After twenty minutes, they arrived near the stadium. This was a huge circular building, and the stadium alone could accommodate 90,000 people. Due to the existence of the Boundary Token, even people who were far away could clearly see every detail of the scene. In addition, there were a large number of off-site viewers, because only within a certain range could they see the live matches, so a large number of viewers gathered outside the stadium. The surrounding apartments, hotels, shops, parks, and even the tops of business office buildings were crowded with people. The roads were full of City Patrol team and Security guard team vehicles. Seeing the Wuyi Academy's bus coming, several two-wheeled Motorized vehicle immediately came forward to Guide. The bus followed them to the stadium's parking lot.
