He found a companion for Ling Nan.
This person was on his way to the Imperial Capital on business, so he took Ling Nan along with him.
The young man was filled with curiosity about the world and, being young, quickly embraced new experiences.
After boarding the train, they headed straight for the Imperial Capital.
Grandfather had left him some money, enough for his journey to the Imperial Capital.
Then, he knew that once in the Imperial Capital, there would definitely be someone to take care of his food, drink, and lodging.
But since the lad had no one by his side to guide him, he had no idea whom he should look for once he arrived in the Imperial Capital.
Who was the owner of the Mysterious Dragon Box?
Where should he go to find this person?
The splendor of the Imperial Capital was beyond his imagination.
Fortunately, though, he knew that the owner of the Mysterious Dragon Box bore the surname Gu.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wen, located to the Northwest, was much better off.
She packed her bags at ease.
She had planned to venture out together with her father.
However, her father’s cultivation had reached a critical moment and it was not good for him to leave.
Therefore, Xiao Wen set off on her own.
Xiao Wen looked twenty-three years old on the surface.
But in terms of actual life experience, she had lived over a century...
Yet, her body was truly that of a twenty-three-year-old.
It could be said that they were from a clan capable of Nirvana Rebirth.
And within their lineage, due to their special bloodline, the survival rate was extremely low.
It was as if the heavens had preordained it, opening a door for you but naturally closing all the windows.
That was the way of their clan.
But later, having received special care from their master, some members of this lineage had managed to survive against all odds.
Because of some unusual traits, they had never lived in bustling areas.
They had chosen secluded places instead.
Nowadays, the Northwest was very peaceful.
It was sparsely populated.
Yet, a normal life could still be maintained.
Thus, it was quite suitable for the father and daughter.
They had thought they would continue to live quietly here.
But the owner of the Mysterious Dragon Box appeared unexpectedly.
It was unclear which member of the Gu Family this master was.
The old master or their new one?
That remained unknown for now.
However, they needed to reach the side of the Mysterious Dragon Box within a month.
Because the token needed to be activated by the Mysterious Dragon Box to reveal a secret unknown to everyone.
If everyone was unaware, it was because of the legend.
But what exactly it was all about remained a mystery...
For this box, having been closed for over five hundred years, was being opened for the first time.
After packing, Xiao Wen bid her elderly father farewell and cheerfully set off.
It had been many years since she last left home.
She had no idea what the Imperial Capital had turned into nowadays.
She remembered the last time she went there was half a century ago.
Back then, Da Jiang was shrouded in the flames of war.
The Imperial Capital was no exception.
In that era, only these remote places seemed exceptionally safe.
Because they were inhospitable territories with nothing to offer.
Neither bandits nor invaders could gain anything from such places.
Naturally, they lost interest.
Which is why this area was considered safe.
But things are different now.
Da Jiang now enjoys a scene of peace and prosperity.
Therefore, venturing out now truly feels like a leisurely tour.
However, it is winter now; it would be better if it were summer.
After some twists and turns, Xiao Wen also boarded the train to the Imperial Capital.
It was still the same day.
It was already the afternoon.
