C37 Palaces

"You … You're not coming down? If you don't, I'll pull your fur out. Do you believe me?" Chu Tianchen pretended to be angry and said.

"Are you trying to scare it?" Nangong Ziyu rolled her eyes at Chu Tianchen.

"That's not fair. I have to do something." Chu Tianchen said as he took a step forward.

Nangong Ziyu was speechless, "Bastard, get lost."

The little fellow also stuck its head out and stuck its tongue out at Chu Tianchen.

Chu Tianchen: "Sooner or later, I will rub it off too."

Nangong Ziyu, "..."

How could he be any more shameless?

Chu Tianchen found a place to sleep and spread some hay. Yesterday, he did not have any rest at all, and after going through a battle which used up a lot of soul power, he found it hard to bear.

Looking at the little fellow in Nangong Ziyu's arms, Chu Tianchen was also depressed. It was not because it "took" Nangong Ziyu's advantage, nor was Chu Tianchen envious of such a cute little fellow. Instead, he was thinking where did this Fire Qilin come from.

The Fire Qilin was an almost-extinct Divine Beast from the Primordial Era, something that they had never seen in the God Realm before. They never thought that such a Divine Beast would actually appear in such a small place, and this kind of Divine Beast, when it grew up, was actually quite terrifying.

As he thought about it, Chu Tianchen fell asleep.

...

When he woke up again it was dark and he was woken by the sound of chewing.

Nangong Ziyu was currently cultivating, and Chu Tianchen had observed the entire cave, but did not find any movement. Then, where did this chewing sound come from?

Then, with a shocked expression, he tried to delve into the Storage Ring. When he looked around, he could see that the little guy was holding onto a Rank 4 herb and was eating it with gusto. Looking at it again, there were still many leftover branches and fallen leaves, Chu Tianchen suddenly felt pain in his heart. Those were stolen from the White Old Man at the risk of his life, and at this moment, this little fellow was taking these herbs and eating them as if they were snacks.

Looking at the Spirit Liquid he refined himself, there were more than ten bottles of Spirit Liquid. All of them were empty.

Wait a moment, how did this little fellow get in? Although Chu Tianchen's soul force wasn't very strong, the soul imprint that he left behind couldn't even be opened by Chang Jian. How did this little fellow do it? Could it be that it had some sort of special ability, so the soul mark was useless against it?

With a thought, Chu Tianchen brought it out from the Storage Ring. However, the little guy acted as if nothing had happened, with both of his claws still holding onto the medicinal plant, he continued to gnaw on it.

"Is it delicious?" Chu Tianchen said in a low voice.

Only now did the little fellow realize that it had already walked out from the Storage Ring s. It glanced at Chu Tianchen, and cried out Yi Ya Ya Ya a few times, then began to gnaw on the medicine again.

A Ancient Divine Beasts is indeed a Ancient Divine Beasts, yet it could actually understand Chu Tianchen's words. This was enough to shock Chu Tianchen, after all, this little guy looked like he was only a few months old.

"Where are you from?"

Chu Tianchen did not care about his own ingredients anymore, and asked with interest.

Even he had only seen such a Divine Beast before. If he adopted it and nurtured it, it would definitely be a great help in the future.

"Can he understand you? "What a fool." It was unknown when Nangong Ziyu finished her cultivation and spoke.

However, just as she finished speaking, the little fellow finished consuming that Grade 4 medicinal plant. It even patted its own stomach, looking extremely satisfied. After which, it glanced at the two of them before running out of the cave dwelling.

As they ran, they would turn around and shout at the two.

"What is it going to do? It's so late, it's dangerous to go out. " Nangong Ziyu quickly got up and hugged it.

"Follow it. It seems to be taking us somewhere." Chu Tianchen said.

The two of them followed it together. Along the way, the Fire Qilin kept looking back to see if the two were following it. Its actions were very cute, and the more Nangong Ziyu saw, the more she liked it.

Thus, along the way, they would constantly hear the cries of demon beasts. Some of the demon beasts' auras caused Chu Tianchen and Yue Yang to become wary, as they knew that high level beasts could appear at any time.

However, this little guy was fearless as he ran along the way. However, along the way, they cleverly avoided the demon beasts. Obviously, this little guy could also feel the location of the demon beasts and intended to avoid them.

The Divine Beast was indeed the Divine Beast, but where did it want to take him? Could it be its home? Would there be an adult Qilin?

Their intelligence far surpasses that of demon beasts. Even if they met with a mature Qilin, Chu Tianchen felt that there was no need to be afraid. They would also not kill people for no reason.

After about four hours or so, the little guy ran into a small, narrow path, or rather, a gap between two mountain peaks. The gap was about the size of a crack, just large enough for the next person to pass through.

Like this, the little guy was incomparably relaxed. However, the two of them had worked hard, and their speed had also decreased.

Just like this, after an unknown amount of time, when the sky started to brighten up, they finally passed through the crack and saw an ancient castle in front of them. The castle was full of ruins, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and countless city towers had collapsed.

The little guy's expression was dazed for a moment, and then he ran towards the castle. The two of them followed closely behind.

Arriving at the castle, an ancient aura emanated from it, roughly a thousand years old.

It was hard to imagine what kind of great battle had happened here. The little guy was running in front, and the two of them followed behind. Very quickly, they arrived in front of the Main Hall, and along the way, there were almost no houses that were completely preserved.

The two of them stepped onto the ancient stairs, and walked forward step by step, until they reached the stairs. The Main Hall entered their eyes, and on the left and right side of the Main Hall, there were two divine dragons made of pure gold, vivid and lifelike.

When Chu Tianchen raised his head to look at the Main Hall, he finally realized that this place was originally an ancient Imperial Palace. He didn't know why it had been destroyed, but he didn't know why the little guy had brought him to this kind of place.
