"Go!"
"Hurry back!"
"No matter what, we can't let Chen Nan risk his life for me."
"Absolutely not let him go to the Nai River to find the Nai River Fish!"
Snapping back to reality.
Du Yuan screamed at Leng Yinyin like a madwoman, tears welling up in her eyes.
To save Chen Nan.
She was willing to throw caution to the wind.
Even though she knew unleashing "Snow Falling on the Mortal Realm" would mean death.
She had never hesitated.
Therefore.
She would not allow Chen Nan to encounter any danger for her sake.
If that were to happen.
She would not rest in peace even if she died.
Du Huang forced a smile, "Sister, you seem to have underestimated that little lamb you like so much."
"The Sheng Sheng Zao Hua Dan is an extremely rare medicinal ingredient."
"For him to know of this pill at such a young age suggests he has extensive connections."
"And also."
"If my sister remembers correctly."
"When you last met that little lamb in Guangling Prefecture, his cultivation was only at the early stage of the Cai Yin realm, wasn't it?"
Du Yuan let out a hum.
The sisters shared a deep bond.
When they returned.
Du Yuan had told her sister about her encounter with Chen Nan.
Including his cultivation realm.
"How long has it been since you last parted?"
"For him to have advanced from the early stage of Cai Yin realm to the peak of the Ju Hun realm."
"It shows he has extraordinary talent."
"Not to mention, he has those two great fortuitous encounters by his side."
"Sister knows you are worried about him."
"Because... this is a love that is mutual."
"But this time, you should trust him."
Du Yuan became much quieter.
As her sister had said.
She really should trust him.
After all, he was a man as mysterious as a fog.
Du Huang murmured, "I truly wish to meet that man soon."
"I want to see if he is as outstanding as you say."
Du Yuan showed a faint smile, "Sister, if you meet him, you will surely like him too. He is truly very good."
Du Huang shook her head helplessly, "You are too deeply smitten."
Du Yuan retorted, "Sister, if you could experience the sweetness of love, you would understand that even being poisoned by love is a happy thing!"
Du Huang sighed, a trace of bitterness in her eyes, "In this life, I fear I will never meet someone who can make me fall so deeply in love!"
------
Perhaps it was due to the security of her life.
Nourished by love.
Chen Nan only took fifteen days to refine the Hua Xing Dan.
After refining the pill.
He followed his usual routine and set aside five thousand pills.
Then he began his seclusion.
He spent ten days breaking through.
Perhaps it was due to consuming too many pills.
This breakthrough was not as good as expected.
He did not reach the peak of the Hua Xing realm.
Stopping at the eighth layer of the Hua Xing realm.
Despite this.
His strength had still improved by leaps and bounds.
His spatial domain and fire domain could cover a radius of fifteen thousand meters centered on him.
This was an astonishing figure.
"With my current strength."
"Even facing a peak expert in the Duo Ti realm."
"I estimate I would have a fighting chance!"
Upon entering the Hua Xing realm.
Chen Nan also began the most exciting transformation.
After all, those in the Hua Xing realm could transform into objects.
Generally speaking, Hua Xing realm experts would transform into birds.
This was because it allowed them to fly in the air.
Only when one reached the Duo Ti realm could they truly fly.
To transform into a bird.
One needed to carefully observe the physical characteristics of birds.
Only then could one succeed.
Of course.
For ordinary people to transform into the appearance of a bird, it would take at least half a year of observation.
However, for Chen Nan...
It did not take that long at all.
He had lived in the immortal realm for so long.
He was brothers with the Golden-Winged Great Peng.
He had long since memorized the appearance of the avian race.
He sat cross-legged.
Imagining the appearance of the Golden-Winged Great Peng in his mind.
As time passed.
A radiant glow gradually emanated from him.
Eventually, he transformed into a Golden-Winged Great Peng bird with a body length of two meters.
The reason for transforming into a Golden-Winged Great Peng was simple.
Speed!
After all, the Golden-Winged Great Peng was the fastest bird among the avian race.
He wanted to be faster.
This would be convenient for his travels in the future.
To be honest.
Having become accustomed to flying in the mortal world, he found it difficult to adapt to the netherworld.
Now, it was good.
Being able to transform into a Golden-Winged Great Peng would make things much easier.
After returning to human form, Chen Nan walked out of the alchemy room.
It was already evening.
Leng Qingmei, wearing an apron, looking like a dutiful wife, had just finished cooking.
Chen Nan did not wish to disturb their mealtime.
After dinner, the couple returned to the bedroom.
Leng Qingmei helped Chen Nan change his clothes like a maid.
Chen Nan said softly, "My lady, I will be going on a long trip tomorrow. It will take at least over a month before I return."
Leng Qingmei's hands paused for a moment, then she whispered, "Is my lord going to Hundred Flower Valley?"
Chen Nan: "I need to go to the Nai River first, and then to Hundred Flower Valley."
Leng Qingmei forced a smile, "My lord can set off with peace of mind. I will wait for you to return."
She did not know the great danger Chen Nan would face on this trip.
But her heart felt a pang of sourness.
Because she was a petty woman.
Learning that Chen Nan was going to see another woman.
She felt a little jealous.
Chen Nan said softly, "My lady has also had a tiring day. Please lie down quickly. I will be the one tonight."
------
The next morning.
Chen Nan transformed into the form of a Golden-Winged Great Peng.
Carrying Guo Yu and Di Ting, he tore through the clouds.
Heading towards the Nai River.
After all, Qingyun Tower and the Ma family had found the two ten-thousand-year-old precious herbs he needed.
Now, only the ten-thousand-year-old Nai River Fish in the Nai River remained.
In less than half an hour, they crossed eight hundred miles of void and arrived at the Nai River.
It was called a river.
But it actually resembled a sea.
As far as the eye could see, there was no end.
The river's waves were turbulent, and the red water, like fresh blood, was awe-inspiring.
There was a folk saying.
Many vengeful spirits who had escaped from hell lived in the Nai River.
And they would devour people and animals on the banks.
As a result, the banks of the vast Nai River were deserted.
"Brother, the Nai River is so vast, where should we go to catch Nai River Fish?" Guo Yu couldn't help but look at Chen Nan.
The Nai River was too vast, too vast.
It was the largest river in the netherworld.
It was said to traverse the entire netherworld.
No one knew where the Nai River originated.
But at the end of the Nai River, there was a bridge.
However.
No living person had ever seen that bridge.
Chen Nan looked at Di Ting, "Da Bai, do you know where we can catch Nai River Fish?"
Di Ting gave him a white eye, "Am I that big? Can you stop giving me random names?"
Chen Nan scrutinized it carefully, and it didn't seem that big.
He then gave an awkward smile, "Alright, Xiao Bai."
Di Ting bared its teeth and made whimpering sounds.
Protesting and expressing its dissatisfaction with the name Chen Nan had given it.
Then it looked at the vast Nai River and transmitted telepathically, "Actually, to obtain Nai River Fish, there's no need for the laborious and thankless act of fishing."
Chen Nan's eyes lit up, "You have a better method?"
