76: Heading to Central Plains!

The flying boat broke through the clouds, speeding towards Maple City.

Jiang Luo stood at the bow, his fingertips toying with the Hun Yu containing Venerable Skyfire's remnant soul, his gaze fixed on the distance.

With the strength of a five-star Dou Zun, coupled with Venerable Skyfire as a Dou Zun-level helper, the Jiang Sect's Foundation in the Black-Corner Region was stable. Next, it was time to step into the broader Central Plains.

Half a day later, the flying boat arrived at the Jiang Sect's main headquarters in Maple City.

As soon as Jiang Luo landed, the managers of the Reconnaissance Hall and the Poison Guard Hall came forward to report on affairs, and Qing Lin also explained the Black-Corner Region's patrol situation during this period.

After listening, Jiang Luo said in a deep voice, "After I leave, the Vice Hall Master of the Reconnaissance Hall will temporarily act as Sect Leader, overseeing all matters of the Jiang Sect."

"The Elder of the Poison Guard Hall will take over the training of the Poison Guards and reinforce Maple City's defenses."

"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.

Jiang Luo then gave a few more instructions regarding the implementation of the alliance and the recruitment of students, before returning to his seclusion chamber to pack his belongings.

This trip to the Central Plains, he only planned to bring Xiao Yi Xian, Yun Yun, and Qing Lin with him. Besides Qing Lin, the other two both possessed Dou Zong strength.

They could look out for each other and facilitate their actions.

The next morning, outside Maple City, the flying boat was ready to depart.

Just as the three were preparing to bid farewell to the Black-Corner Region and head to the Central Plains, a sudden rush of air-breaking sounds came from afar.

The person who arrived was none other than Su Qian, the Grand Elder of Jia Nan Academy, followed by a delicate, doll-like little girl.

"Sect Master Jiang, wait!" Su Qian panted slightly as he landed, quickly calling out.

Jiang Luo stopped, puzzled, "Grand Elder Su, why are you rushing here? Has something happened at the Academy?"

"It's not about the Academy."

Su Qian waved his hand and pushed the little girl beside him forward, "This child's name is Zi Yan. She is a special student of the Inner Academy, naturally possessing an extremely strong Demonic Beast Bloodline. Her strength has already reached Dou Huang, but her temperament is mischievous, making her difficult for the Academy to manage. Hearing that Sect Master Jiang is heading to the Central Plains, I humbly request that you take her along."

Jiang Luo looked at Zi Yan.

The little girl was wearing a pink dress, puffing out her cheeks, but her eyes held a hint of mischievousness, and a pure Demonic Beast aura enveloped her body.

He raised an eyebrow and said, "Grand Elder Su, why are you so sure that I would be willing to travel with a stranger's child?"

"Zi Yan's Bloodline is extraordinary. There might be an Opportunity in the Central Plains that can help her Awaken her Bloodline."

Su Qian's tone was sincere, "And although she is young, she can perceive spiritual objects between heaven and earth, which might be helpful to Sect Master Jiang in seeking resources and exploring Secret Realms. I guarantee, in the name of Jia Nan Academy, that Zi Yan will absolutely not cause any trouble for Sect Master Jiang!"

Upon hearing this, Zi Yan immediately raised her head and said in a clear voice, "I won't cause trouble! I can even help you find treasures!"

Jiang Luo pondered for a moment.

A Dou Huang-level Demonic Beast Bloodline, combined with the ability to perceive spiritual objects, was indeed a considerable help.

Moreover, Zi Yan was not just a simple Demonic Beast Bloodline, but a true royal Bloodline!

She just hadn't Awakened yet.

He looked at Qing Lin and Xiao Yi Xian, and seeing that they had no objections, he nodded and said, "Alright, I agree. But Zi Yan must follow my arrangements and not act on her own."

Su Qian was overjoyed and quickly said to Zi Yan, "Why aren't you thanking Sect Master Jiang!"

Zi Yan stuck out her tongue and cupped her hands towards Jiang Luo, "Thank you, Big Brother Jiang Luo!"

Jiang Luo said no more, leading the four onto the flying boat. The flying boat slowly ascended, flying towards the distant direction.

Su Qian watched the disappearing silhouette of the flying boat and murmured, "Zi Yan, whether your Bloodline mystery can be unraveled depends on this journey..."

Inside the flying boat, Zi Yan curiously circled Venerable Skyfire's Hun Yu, while Qing Lin patiently explained the rules of the journey to her. Xiao Yi Xian and Yun Yun, meanwhile, were organizing Medicinal Pills and Dou Technique scrolls.

Jiang Luo stood at the bow, looking at the gradually shrinking Black-Corner Region, his eyes full of anticipation.
