580: Chitian Capital, Mountain Viewing Tower
After the ancient warship entered the City.
General Mo Lian said to Your Highness Qin Fuguang, "Your Imperial Highness, I'll first take my younger siblings to Chitian Academy; the others will escort you back to the Imperial Palace."
Your Highness Qin Fuguang softly said, "Thank you for your trouble on this journey."
"It is my duty."
General Mo Lian bowed, then she looked at Xie Weilou: "Fellow Daoist, we have arrived at Chi Tian Capital, please disembark with me."
"Alright."
Xie Weilou nodded slightly.
Subsequently, Xie Weilou and General Mo Lian, bringing Mo Feng and Mo Yi, flew down, and the ancient warship continued to sail forward.
General Wei Wuyan guarded them from the side. At this moment, he had many questions, particularly about that mysterious woman. This question should be answered very soon!
On the street.
"Wow! Is this Chi Tian Capital? It's so magnificent!"
Mo Feng and Mo Yi looked around curiously, their eyes revealing a sense of shock; the houses here were all so grand.
General Mo Lian said to Xie Weilou, "Fellow Daoist, let's go eat something together! Since you're new to Chitian Ancient Kingdom, you probably want to know a bit about the situation here."
"Sure."
Xie Weilou smiled indifferently.
Then the four of them walked forward.
Not long after.
They arrived at a restaurant—Guanshan Tower.
General Mo Lian led Xie Weilou and the other two into the building.
"This restaurant is not simple!"
The moment he entered the restaurant, Xie Weilou sensed its extraordinariness; there were several strong auras hidden within.
"General General Mo Lian is here! What would you like to eat?"
A plump, beautiful woman walked over with a smile.
General Mo Lian softly said, "A pot of wine and a few good dishes, please."
"Please wait."
The beautiful woman smiled and nodded.
Xie Weilou and the other three found a spot and sat down.
Not long after.
A pot of fine wine and six exquisite dishes were served. When Mo Feng and Mo Yi saw the dishes, they drooled with desire.
General Mo Lian poured a glass of wine. She sniffed it and said with a surprised expression, "What kind of wine is this?"
The middle-aged beautiful woman giggled, "This is Seven Nights Snow. Normally, only our own people taste it; it hasn't even started selling yet."
As she said this, her gaze fell on Xie Weilou, and a meaningful smile appeared on her face.
"Seven Nights Snow..."
Xie Weilou found it a bit strange.
"So that's it."
General Mo Lian didn't think much of it either.
The middle-aged beautiful woman chuckled, "Please enjoy your meal. I'll continue with my work. Just let me know if you need anything."
With that, she went off to attend to other matters.
General Mo Lian looked at Mo Feng and Mo Yi: "Eat!"
"Mhm!"
The two immediately picked up their chopsticks and began to eat heartily.
General Mo Lian poured a glass of wine for Xie Weilou and asked, "Fellow Daoist, is there anything you wish to know?"
Xie Weilou took the wine glass and asked with a smile, "Which powerhouses are there in this Chitian Ancient Kingdom? Just mention those in the Dongxuan Realm."
General Mo Lian pondered for a moment and said, "In Chitian Ancient Kingdom, there are a total of six Dongxuan Realm cultivators. You've already met three of them: Marquis Chi Cang, Empress Yuan Jue, and General Wei Wuyan, the commander of the Chitian Guard."
"As for the remaining three, one is the Great Desert Wanderer, Xue Tianya; the other two are at Chitian Academy. One of them is my master, and also the Chitian Academy Head..."
"What? Sister's master is the Chitian Academy Head?"
Mo Feng looked at General Mo Lian in shock.
"..."
General Mo Lian smiled and said nothing more.
It was by sheer coincidence that she caught the eye of the Chitian Academy Head, but she never used her influence to get things done.
The busy middle-aged beautiful woman at the side smiled charmingly: "The Academy Head loves to come to our restaurant to drink, especially this Seven Nights Snow; she likes it the most."
After speaking, she again scrutinized Xie Weilou. He was indeed a handsome young man. Such men, the more handsome they were, the more mischievous!
Xie Weilou took a sip of the fine wine and praised, "The taste is quite good."
General Mo Lian also drank a glass of wine, then she transmitted her voice: "Fellow Daoist, your killing of Qin Juefeng this time is no small matter. You must guard against Marquis Chi Cang and Empress Yuan Jue; this matter certainly cannot be kept secret! Furthermore, the origins of those three Dragon Transformation Realm cultivators are probably not simple either. I will investigate them later."
Even if she kept silent about such a matter, so many Chitian Guards had witnessed it, so someone was bound to leak the news.
Although Your Highness Qin Fuguang said that she could be approached for any matter, General Mo Lian understood that in many situations, relying on others was unreliable; the key was to rely on oneself.
Your Highness Qin Fuguang, having just returned to the Capital, was currently preoccupied. She might not be able to resolve external affairs.
Xie Weilou played with the wine glass and smiled faintly, "We'll see then."
Two early-stage Dongxuan Realm cultivators were indeed troublesome, but they couldn't scare him. As the saying goes, those with nothing to lose fear nothing.
Two quarters of an hour later.
The meal ended.
General Mo Lian said to Xie Weilou, "Fellow Daoist, I'll first take them to Chitian Academy. If you have any matters, you can find me at the Mo Residence in the east of the City."
"Understood!"
Xie Weilou smiled indifferently.
"Farewell."
Then, General Mo Lian left with the two of them.
The middle-aged beautiful woman walked over. She looked at Xie Weilou and chuckled, "Young Master, my Guanshan Tower is quite good. Do you intend to reside here?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Weilou smiled and said, "Then I'll stay here for now."
"I'll go arrange a room for the Young Master right away."
The middle-aged beautiful woman smiled with pursed lips and walked upstairs.

In the City.
There is a Chitian Peak, which is where Chitian Academy is located. There are countless pavilions and numerous palaces on the mountain, illuminated by colorful light, with purple qi coming from the east. The spiritual energy is incredibly rich, making it an excellent sacred place for cultivation.
In a pavilion, a woman in an orange-red long dress was lazily sitting on a chair. Her hair was disheveled, she was unkempt, holding fine wine in her hand, and reeking of alcohol, looking completely drunk.
This woman was none other than the Head of Chitian Academy, Guanshan Wine.
She was also recognized as the foremost expert in Chitian Ancient Kingdom, possessing the highest cultivation among the several Dongxuan Realm cultivators.
"Reporting to the Academy Head, General Mo Lian has returned, and she has brought someone with her."
A middle-aged woman walked over and bowed to Guanshan Wine.
"Oh? What kind of person did she bring back?"
Guanshan Wine asked casually.
The middle-aged woman immediately took out a portrait and handed it to Guanshan Wine, saying meaningfully, "It's a handsome young man."
"How handsome could he be?"
Guanshan Wine chuckled, taking the portrait casually, looking somewhat bored.
However, when she saw the person in the painting, she couldn't help but show a strange expression: "He is indeed a handsome young man."
The middle-aged woman asked, "How does the Academy Head intend to handle this? He killed Qin Juefeng, and also killed the disciples of Master Tian Ku and Old Man Rusty Sword..."
"That's rather interesting! Let's meet him tonight."
Guanshan Wine stretched lazily, then leaned on the table, playing with her wine glass, and murmured, "This time, another great deity has arrived at Chitian Ancient Kingdom... She is truly terrifying!"
