Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1267 - 563: Honored Guests at the Inn

"No need, let’s head back early, there are still many things to handle."

Li Xiangrou rejected without hesitation, then waved her hand: "Commander Li, let’s depart."

"Yes!"

Commander Li nodded, then raised the whip: "Move out."

"As you command!"

"..."

At his command, the team set off once again.

Heading toward the direction outside the city.

Ning Qi was in the carriage, looking back.

He saw Wang Mang and his followers’ faces showing a look of a successful conspiracy.

"It seems they still think you’ve fallen into their trap."

Ning Qi turned his head back, smiling as he spoke.

"Let them think what they want, this time when I return, I’ll sweep them all away."

After yet another deception, Li Xiangrou had become hardened.

She had lost all patience with these people.

"Good, that is the first step to becoming strong."

Ning Qi, hearing her words, encouraged: "I believe in you, you can do it."

"Ning Qi, I need your support."

"Otherwise, there are several experts in the Imperial City, I’m not their match."

"And their relations are extremely complicated."

Li Xiangrou turned to Ning Qi, showing a serious expression.

"Don’t worry, I’ll help you solve the issues here before leaving."

"Before then, I won’t leave."

Ning Qi nodded slightly.

As they chatted, they unknowingly left the city.

Arriving at the final path leading back to the Imperial City.

"Your Highness, following this road and crossing the mountain range, we will reach our Imperial City!"

At this time, Commander Li rode over with a smile.

After such a long journey, hope could finally be seen.

"Unfortunately, many of our guards couldn’t see today."

Li Xiangrou glanced back.

There was the road they came from, many guards who would forever remain behind.

Her words made the surrounding guards show expressions of sadness.

These people were also their friends and brothers, forever unable to return.

"But fortunately, we all came back. Next, we will walk the last leg for them, fulfilling their mission."

Li Xiangrou sighed, then seriously said: "Next, I will live well and make myself stronger."

"So that this kind of thing never happens again; they did not die in vain."

"Your Highness speaks the truth!"

"Only when we become strong will no one dare to bully us again!"

Commander Li nodded, showing a solemn expression: "However, for the last two days of the journey, we don’t know what arrangements they’ll make."

"That depends on them."

"This, even if we wanted to guess, we couldn’t."

Ning Qi drove the carriage, speaking: "But it doesn’t matter, we shall meet challenges as they come!"

"Exactly!"

Li Xiangrou agreed, looking ahead: "If they want to attack, let them come."

"I am no longer the timid person I used to be!"

"Brothers, speed up!"

"Let’s return soon!"

Commander Li shouted.

"Yes!"

"..."

A quick response came from everyone, and the convoy sped up again.

Ning Qi watched as everyone was filled with excitement, which reminded him of the True Martial Spirit Realm.

Thinking carefully, he hadn’t been away for a short time.

"Master, do you wish to return?"

The Medicine Spirit, seeing his expression, couldn’t help but ask.

"Yes, we’ve been away for a while, once we finish dealing with things here, we’ll return!"

"To see how things are in the True Martial Spirit Realm now!"

Ning Qi nodded, his gaze directed at the void.

If not for the ties here, he could merely leap away.

To soar over the Sea of Realms, returning to the True Martial Spirit Realm.

"Ning Qi, what kind of place is your True Martial Spirit Realm?"

At this point, Li Xiangrou could now fully see the Medicine Spirit.

By now, the Medicine Spirit had no need to hide itself.

Their conversation caught her attention, so she asked curiously.

"Different from here, my True Martial Spirit Realm was fought for by me."

"It’s the fusion of the Three Realms, compared to here, our strength is a bit weaker."

"The cultivation environment there is also poor, the Spiritual Qi isn’t as abundant as here!"

Ning Qi thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "But, I’ve found a way to solve the problem, just need to pay some cost."

"Then, why don’t you just come to our place, wouldn’t it save many troubles,"

Li Xiangrou suggested hearing him say that.

"There’s no need for that, coming here means facing many complex forces."

"Better to stay in the True Martial Spirit Realm, and make ourselves strong."

Ning Qi shook his head, continuing: "Just like you, needing to return to the Imperial City is the same reason, no matter how strong you become outside, it’s pointless."

"Only by solidifying your foundation can you truly succeed."

"Otherwise, wouldn’t it just be opportunistic?"

His words were well-reasoned, making Li Xiangrou nod repeatedly.

"Yes, you’re right!"

She looked at Ning Qi, then said: "This time going back, I intend to solidify our foundation, to rid any future worries."

"Good! I will lend you a hand."

Ning Qi nodded, smiling as he said: "Now, we just need to finish the last stretch of the journey, and see the specifics of your situation when we return."

"It might be quite chaotic."

Li Xiangrou looked at Ning Qi, sighing: "When I left, things were already quite chaotic."
