Yin Chenming’s guards searched through every map, big and small, but couldn’t find a place called Changbai Mountain Qiqihar, let alone the wild man tribe’s Sunset Village, which they had never heard of.

Tentatively, Sixteen asked, “Master, could it be… that you misheard?”

Beneath the silver mask, Yin Chenming’s thin lips pressed together slightly as his cold gaze fell upon Sixteen.

Straightening his expression immediately, Sixteen said, “Master couldn’t have misheard. It must be my incompetence for not finding it. I’ll keep searching!”

Without waiting for his master’s orders, he ran off with the maps.

Expressionless, Yin Chenming took out the transmission stone and examined it, his eyebrows furrowing deeper.

Could she be lying?

Squinting his eyes, Yin Chenming thought for a moment before channeling a bit of energy into the transmission stone, making it light up.

“Are you there?”

When the transmission stone lit up, Wen Qingchen was about to leave the clinic.

After Zhang Dashen accused their clinic’s medicine of being deadly, another person came forward with similar claims, questioning the efficacy of their medicine.

Including Zhang Dashen, there were four people who sought medical help in the past two days. This was the second one after Zhang Dashen.

Covering the transmission stone, Wen Qingchen hurried back to her room. “Hey, Brother Yin, what’s up?”

Before Yin Chenming could respond, Wen Qingchen continued, “Can we make an agreement? This transmission stone suddenly lighting up and a voice coming out of nowhere is quite scary. People might think I’ve seen a ghost.”

Yin Chenming remained silent.

Listening carefully, Wen Qingchen couldn’t hear much noise from outside. Her brother must be handling the situation. Confident that the other side couldn’t hear any other sounds, she asked, “What else do you need?”

From the transmission stone came the cold voice, “Where is Changbai Mountain?”

Wen Qingchen narrowed her eyes. This guy really wanted to find her.

It seemed he really wanted the transmission stone.

But such a treasure was not for sale.

With a cunning glint in her eyes, Wen Qingchen slowly said, “Does Brother Yin want to come to Changbai Mountain?”

Yin Chenming retorted, “Didn’t you invite me?”

“That’s right.” Wen Qingchen laughed. “Our village is very hospitable. Brother Yin, you’re welcome to visit.”

Yin Chenming: “So, where is it?”

Wen Qingchen: “Do you know Linxian City?”

Linxian City was a city she knew of, also in this world, but it was extremely far from Tang City and rarely visited.

Linxian City was famous, reputed to have many immortals. However, due to the distinction between immortals and mortals, it was said that ordinary people who arrived there would only see an endless expanse of mountains. Those with spiritual power, however, would see a prosperous city.

Yin Chenming’s cold voice carried a hint of other emotions. “You are in Linxian City?”

Wen Qingchen laughed, “Yes, I’m on a mountain ten miles outside Linxian City. That mountain is called Changbai Mountain.”

Yin Chenming continued to ask, “Which direction?”

Wen Qingchen casually lied, “Go east.”

Yin Chenming: “…”

Seeing he didn’t speak, Wen Qingchen, thinking about the clinic matters, said, “Brother Yin, if there’s nothing else, I’ll put away this stone. I need to go to the bathroom.”

Yin Chenming finally spoke again, his voice cold and clearly displeased. “Are you playing tricks on me?”

Wen Qingchen, acting innocent, replied, “How could I be? Am I that kind of person?”

Yin Chenming said, “East of Linxian City is only the sea.”

“Uh…” Wen Qingchen sincerely asked, “What about the west?”

Yin Chenming: “…”
