401 Xia Chaoge 401 Xia Chaoge Gazing in the same direction, there stood a middle-aged man dressed in black robes, carrying the Seven-star Treasure Sword on his back.
He walked with the demeanor of a dragon and a tiger, exuding an extraordinary aura.
Leading a group of disciples down the street, passersby quickly moved aside, not daring to block their path.
“Supreme Sect Master?”
Jiang Fan’s expression turned strange.
This sect master who single-handedly stirred up the Nine-Sect reporting frenzy, he remembered him well.
However,
He turned to glance at the carriage and asked doubtfully, “Do you have a grudge against the Supreme Sect Master?”
Yue Mingzhu didn’t hold a grudge against him.
She was just afraid of being recognized!
“No, but I don’t like him.”
Yue Mingzhu peeked through the gap in the carriage curtain and noticed they had already walked far away, then breathed a sigh of relief.
She immediately became worried again:
“I don’t know how many sect masters have come to this city.”
“If even one of them encounters me, I’ll have no way to explain.”
“This city is not suitable for a long stay.”
She jumped off the carriage and said, “I’ll go prepare some food and water, you exchange for horses.”
“We’ll meet here later.”
Jiang Fan nodded.
Acting separately would save time, he was happy with that.
He immediately drove the carriage alone and returned it to the local branch of the carriage and horse company.
To his surprise,
there were no horses for sale in this place.
When he explained his intention, the branch shopkeeper smiled knowingly and said, “Young Master, this must be your first time in Sunset City.”
“If you want to enter the Northern Territory to carry out a mission, horses won’t do.”
“Ten miles from Sunset City, the snow is neck-deep.”
“Even the tallest and strongest horses would be buried up to their heads.”
Jiang Fan was stunned.
The environment deep in the Northern Territory was so harsh?
Seeing Jiang Fan pay promptly, the shopkeeper was more than willing to explain further:
“To go to the Northern Territory, you must ride large spirit beasts.”
“If your sect hasn’t prepared any for you, you’ll have to go to the command post and see if you can apply for one.”
Among the Nine-Sect, only the Spirit Beast Sect has some spirit beasts.
The other sects, where would they find mounts for their disciples?
Most would have to apply at the command post.
After asking for the location and thanking the shopkeeper, Jiang Fan hurried to the command post.
The command post was located in the center of Sunset City Plaza.
From afar, he already saw huge creatures, some several zhang high, even over ten zhang.
They were all sorts of strange beings, a six-zhang tall white horse with sharp horns on its head, a deer-shaped spiritual object roaring to the sky, and a two-headed camel-like creature arguing with itself.
In general, they were all large and appeared very docile.
“Uncle Master?”
An incredulous exclamation rang out.
Jiang Fan was slightly stunned.
There were only a few people in the Nine-Sect who would call him that.
Looking sideways, a stunning figure came into view.
Wasn’t it Xia Chaoge?
She wore a sky-blue water-patterned long dress, her slim waist gently tied with a white silk sash.
A classic melon-seed face, her skin was smooth and fair, as fine as jade, and full of luster.
A high nose bridge and lips like dewy rose petals in the morning.
The breeze blew through her hair, lifting a touch of carefree elegance.
