Chapter 1681: Chapter 39: Yearning for ChangThis shows the importance of this mountain.
After walking for a while, Jiang Wang couldn’t help but sourly say, “If you came to my fief, I would definitely come to the Border City to welcome you. And it wouldn’t be because of time constraints, just to welcome you.”
Of course, how close Green Sheep Town is to the Border City goes without saying.
It takes less than the time of a meal to go back and forth.
Unlike them, riding on Zuo Guangshu’s divine steed, it still took several days to reach…
This rhetoric, borrowed by Jiang Wang from Qingya Academy’s advanced disciple Xu Xiangqian, clearly left Zuo Guangshu unsure how to respond.
“Alright, alright, I get it,” he said sullenly. “I only mobilized the cavalry for you because I consider you a good friend!”
“Hey, these things need to be expressed, how else would I know?” Jiang Wang said with a bright smile, “Good friends, good brothers, right?”
Zuo Guangshu quickened his pace, walking ahead, which was an implicit acknowledgment.
Jiang Wang followed with a grin, “Introduce this Luo Mountain to your brother, it’s Brother’s first time here, completely disoriented. What are these flowers and trees, what’s the history, what notable figures have come here… you can tell me all those things.”
Jiang Wang wasn’t inherently a naturally friendly person; quite the opposite, he was somewhat “shy” in many situations. But in front of Zuo Guangshu, he always found joy in teasing the young man.
It was as if he looked back through time, seeing a different possibility of himself.
Brother Jiang, who came from afar, was so eager to learn, Zuo Guangshu had no choice but to introduce things intermittently while secretly quickening his pace.
The mountain trail forked, turning left through a flower garden and crossing a suspension bridge.
Having endured the Demon Sound invading his ears for so long, Zuo Guangshu finally breathed a sigh of relief, “We’re here!”
The suspension bridge behind them had already disappeared into the mist.
In front of them was an enclosed valley.
The stone-paved mountain road extended from the suspension bridge to here, finally stopping at a giant stone gate.
This was a very heavy stone gate, with patterns that seemed to be the natural texture of the stone, quite rough. It had an ancient, dull feel.
There were no guards in front of the gate, but on each side, there was a tower.
“Uncle Scar!” Zuo Guangshu called out.
There was someone in the tower.
Definitely an expert.
Because before Zuo Guangshu called out, Jiang Wang had not sensed any presence from the tower.
At this moment, on the tower to the left, an aura formed from nothing, like a beast awakening, immediately making Jiang Wang feel the danger.
“Is the person you invited here?” A man with a diagonal scar on his face glanced down at Jiang Wang from the tower.
It was just a casual glance, but Jiang Wang felt as if the man was searching for his weak points.
Without moving a muscle, his body tensed silently, ready to spring into action.
It wasn’t out of fear of any untoward events happening on the Zuo Family’s turf, but rather a warrior instinct.
Having cultivated to his current realm, his body instinctively didn’t allow him to relax in the face of danger.
“Yes!” Zuo Guangshu responded confidently.
The man referred to as “Uncle Scar” didn’t say much more, seemingly uninterested in Jiang Wang. He casually withdrew his gaze and pressed back with his hand.
The two giant stone gates slowly creaked open.
