Chapter 308 Arrival at Lingxu City
Zhong Fu carried Zhong Wei on her back and led the way.
Her petite body carrying the tall Zhong Wei looked very uncoordinated, but Han Xu followed behind him without grace, with his hands behind his back. He looked left and right as he walked, like a country boy preparing to go to the city.
In fact, it was not that Han Xu was not graceful. Although Zhong Fu looked delicate, she was a ninth-grade cultivator, so it was easy for her to carry someone on her back.
They were just casual acquaintances, and she didn't owe her anything, not to mention that Han Xu had just saved her life.
Zhong Fu herself didn't feel anything. She was full of gratitude to Han Xu, so it was even more impossible for her to trouble Han Xu for help.
On the way, she looked back quietly from time to time. After she was out of danger, she was in the mood to observe Han Xu carefully, and found that he was not only powerful, but also handsome. When he was calm, he was as gentle as jade, and there was no flaw to be found.
After looking at it for a few more times, Zhong Fu actually felt her heart pounding non-stop, and both sides of her face felt a little hot. The more she walked, the lower she buried her head. However, these small movements were not discovered by Han Xu because of Zhong Wei's cover.
About half an hour later, a magnificent city appeared in Han Xu's field of vision. Before he got very close, he felt the grandeur and atmosphere of the city. Even compared with the royal city of the Dawu Dynasty, it was better.
"Mr. Han, Lingxu City is ahead." Zhong Fu said. After chatting along the way, she also learned Han Xu's name. Seeing that she was about to reach her destination, she mustered up the courage to invite him, "Mr. Han, if you are not in a hurry, please come to the Zhong Mansion to sit down, so that our Zhong family can repay your life-saving grace."
Han Xu originally wanted to find a place to stay first, learn about the situation in the upper world, and then decide what to do next, so he readily agreed.
He said, "It's just a small favor. There's no need to repay the favor. However, I'm new to Lingxu City and I'm not familiar with the place, so I'm here to bother you."
Hearing Han Xu's agreement, Zhong Fu smiled and her steps became lighter unconsciously.
The two of them entered the city quickly. Unlike the Dawu Dynasty, there was no one guarding the city gate. Anyone could enter and exit at will. It was just a formal gate.
After entering the city, Han Xu found that the spiritual energy in the city was more abundant than that in the wild. He felt that there was a huge spiritual formation in the city that could continuously gather the spiritual energy from all around.
Han Xu thought that if the cultivators of the Dawu Dynasty could also practice in such an environment, the number of people who entered the extraordinary would probably increase several times.
After all, the more abundant the spiritual energy, the faster the practice, and in places with abundant spiritual energy, the rules of heaven and earth are clearer, and the perception is also twice the result with half the effort.
The buildings in the city are not much different from those in the Dawu Dynasty. They are all relatively simple, but the prosperity of the city is far beyond the comparison of any city in the Dawu Dynasty.
Han Xu learned from Zhong Fu that the area of Lingxu City alone is almost as large as the entire northern border of the Dawu Dynasty.
Moreover, the realm of the cultivators here is not comparable to that of the lower world. On the street, Han Xu found several extraordinary masters. Here, the extraordinary is no longer a lofty existence.
However, the strong people in the holy realm are still rare. Han Xu did not see any along the way.
Because he had just entered Lingxu City, the system detected too many exercises at once, and dozens of pages were densely listed. Han Xu could not check them one by one, so he directly closed the system prompt.
Every time he went to a new place, Han Xu would face the same trouble. Every time, he would wait for a while before checking the situation of the exercises. If there was a suitable one, he would choose to download it.
After all, skill points are limited, and Han Xu has to choose the best skills to download, so as to maximize his strength.
"Mr. Han, our Zhong family is not far ahead." Zhong Fu said, quickening her pace, and soon arrived in front of a luxurious mansion.
The guard outside the door saw Zhong Fu, and his expression immediately changed, and he hurried forward.
"Miss, what happened?"
"Heal my brother first, and then go in." After Zhong Fu finished speaking, someone took Zhong Wei from her back and carried him in to heal.
"Miss, who is he?"
"My friend, you go and inform my father first."
"Yes!"
"Mr. Han, please follow me."
Zhong Fu took Han Xu into the gate and went straight to the lobby. A middle-aged man with extraordinary temperament sat in the upper seat of the room.
"Dad, I'm back."
"Fuer, what happened?"
"Dad, the Wang family is causing trouble." Zhong Fu simply recounted what happened, then pulled Han Xu over and said, "Dad, this is Mr. Han. If he hadn't come to my rescue, my daughter wouldn't be able to come back."
"Mr. Han, this is my dad, the head of the Zhong family."
"Hello, my name is Zhong Yi. Thanks to you for your help this time. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask." Zhong Yi said happily.
"Mr. Zhong is too polite. It's just a small favor. I don't dare to take credit for it." Han Xu said modestly. If others are polite to him, he will naturally treat them with courtesy. Besides, the head of the Zhong family gave Han Xu a good first impression.
"Haha, you are indeed a hero." Zhong Yi said, "If you don't mind, I will take advantage of you and call you my nephew."
"Uncle Zhong is too polite."
"Haha! Good! It seems that my nephew is also a straightforward person. In this way, my nephew will stay in my Zhong Mansion for the time being. I will have someone arrange some good wine and food to welcome you tonight."
"Then I'm sorry to bother you, uncle."
"No, no." Zhong Yi said to Zhong Fu, "Fuer, Mr. Han has just arrived. You should accompany him well."
After listening, Zhong Fu lowered her head, her face flushed a little, and she whispered, "Okay, Dad, I know."
How could Zhong Yi not see Zhong Fu's little girl's thoughts, but he had a good impression of Han Xu. In addition, from Zhong Fu's description, he also knew that Han Xu was very strong, so he just went with the flow to investigate. Anyway, his daughter was growing up and always had to find a home.
But among the young generation in Lingxu City, there was no one that Zhong Yi liked, and Han Xu appeared at the right time.
However, Zhong Yi still had to investigate his character. He believed that Han Xu would not be able to make any waves under his nose.
Zhong Fu brought Han Xu to the guest room, gave some instructions to the servants, and then said to Han Xu with a red face: "Mr. Han, you are tired from the journey, so take a good rest. Fuer will not disturb you. My room is next door. If you have anything to say, just speak loudly and I will hear you."
"Okay." Han Xu agreed decisively. He did not try to keep Zhong Fu, which made Zhong Fu a little disappointed, but Han Xu was too lazy to care about what she was thinking.
After experiencing the teleportation array just now, Han Xu was indeed a little tired. After Zhong Fu left, he had a rare good sleep until Zhong Fu came to call him for dinner.
