A wasted cultivation cultivator, whose senior sister comes to his door asking for pills at the start

In the blink of an eye, several days later...

These days, Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian have almost always been in the library.

Only occasionally would I be invited by Canglan to a get-together, and then I would come back to reading.

By this day, Nangong Jiutian had read almost every history-related book.

Now, she is more knowledgeable about the history of the Azure Dragon Empire than any historian.

Having completed his mission, Nangong Jiutian took Ye Yun with him to bid farewell to Canglan and prepared to leave.

"Your Majesty Azure, we have come to say goodbye."

After contacting Cang Lan, Ye Yun explained his purpose to him.

Canglan knew what they had been doing these past few days, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

At this point, Azure tried to persuade her to stay.

"You've finished watching so quickly? Aren't you going to stay a few more days?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun glanced at Nangong Jiutian, knowing that such a question should naturally be answered by her.

Nangong Jiutian instantly understood and smiled faintly at him.

"No need. I already know quite a bit about the history of the Azure Dragon Empire."

"I and this boy will continue our travels across the continent, so we won't waste any more time."

Seeing that she was determined to leave, Canglan wanted them to stay a few more days, but she had no choice but to give up.

The main reason is that having such an Emperor-level expert stationed in the Imperial Palace provides her with strong support.

Unfortunately, this support is destined to be short-lived; it will soon be gone.

"Alright... since that's the case, I won't insist you stay."

Canglan looked at the two of them and asked curiously.

"So, where are you planning to go next?"

When this matter was mentioned, Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian exchanged a glance.

They had already decided on this issue while reading books these past two days.

Then, Ye Yun gave the answer.

"Our next stop is Beizhou. Senior Nangong is very interested in some things there."

"Northern Continent... it's not bad."

Azure nodded and chuckled softly.

"If you're going over there, you can go to Wanmeng City to see Miss Qing'er."

It would have been better if we hadn't mentioned it, but when this matter is brought up, to be precise, it refers to that Jian Qing'er.

Their visit to the Azure Dragon Empire was completely undisguised, and the news was common knowledge.

It is estimated that Jian Qing'er already knows about this matter, given the intelligence network of the Northern Continent Alliance and even the Jian family.

If she finds out that the senior Nangong she's been longing for has appeared, she'll definitely go crazy again.

She herself is fine; at worst, it just takes some effort to deal with it.

The problem is his father, who is the leader of the Northern Continent Alliance.

If he finds out that the guy who stole his daughter's heart has appeared, there might be some friction.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Seeing Ye Yun's depressed look, Cang Lan couldn't help but ask curiously.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun snapped out of his daze and shook his head.

"It's nothing, just some trivial things on my mind."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Nangong Jiutian.

"Senior, shall we set off now?"

"Well, it's time to go."

Nangong Jiutian nodded slightly and said something to Canglan.

"Miss Azure, see you next time."

"Um……"

Cang Lan looked at her and took a deep breath.

"Our Azure Dragon Empire welcomes Fellow Daoist Nangong to visit us again at any time."

Upon seeing this, Nangong Jiutian smiled faintly.

"I'll definitely come again next time I have the chance."

She really wanted to follow the story of Ye Yun and Cang Lan.

After that, Azure Dragon Emperor personally saw the two off.

Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian boarded the flying sword they had been using earlier and vanished into the distant sky in a flash.

Watching them leave, Azure Sky, perched atop the city wall, glanced down at the capital.

"Alright, now I should get down to business."

The Azure Dragon Empire is currently on the verge of danger and must not be allowed to deteriorate any further!

……

Half a day later.

Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian have left the Azure Dragon Empire.

The two used the intercontinental teleportation array and have now arrived in the territory of the Northern Continent.

On the flying sword, Nangong Jiutian looked at him and asked strangely.

"Hey kid, why do you look so dazed after hearing about Jian Qing'er from the Northern Continent?"

From the very beginning, when Cang Lan mentioned Jian Qing'er to Ye Yun, she noticed that the other party was acting strangely.

Then, as if she had just thought of something, she gave a playful look.

"Could it be that you're afraid of getting involved in other people's romantic entanglements?"

Ye Yun sighed helplessly and explained, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"How could that be? I was just thinking about something."

Nangong Jiutian was taken aback for a moment, then asked curiously.

"What?"

Ye Yun spread his hands, saying helplessly.

"I'm trying to figure out how to get past Jian Qing'er's father."

He originally thought he would simply keep it a secret from the Jian family that he and Nangong Jiutian had come.

But then I thought, you can escape the first day of the month, but you can't escape the fifteenth.

After that, it was inevitable that he would still need to use the alias Nangong to have contact with the Northern Continent Alliance.

Therefore, it's better to handle some things early on, as it will save you trouble later.

"What's so difficult about that? I'll just state directly that I have no interest in his daughter and intimidate him, won't that do?"

In her view, this was just something that happened incidentally.

"Ah...this actually seems like a good idea."

After pondering for a moment, Ye Yun's face showed a pleased expression.

"Thank you very much, senior. I'll have to trouble you then!"

In doing so, he actually solved a big problem!

"It's nothing, just a small matter."

Nangong Jiutian waved his hand dismissively.

Of course, at this moment, Nangong Jiutian had no idea what he was about to face.

Otherwise, they would never have made such a decision so easily...

……

In the following days, Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian, as usual, first traveled around various places in the Northern Continent.

It helped Nangong Jiutian understand what this era was like.

He also took care of several of the blood-red monsters he had encountered.

From this, Ye Yun also sensed the extent to which this blood-red monster had wreaked havoc in such a short time.

Fortunately, it was discovered in time and targeted accordingly; otherwise, if it had been allowed to develop further, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

After exploring most of the places, the two finally arrived at the heart of the Northern Continent—Wanmeng City!

Previously, Nangong Jiutian had used Ye Yun's body to come here a few times.

But this is the first time I've been here in person, and it feels a little different.

Above Wanmeng City, Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian looked down.

At this moment, Ye Yun glanced at Nangong Jiutian and asked with a smile.

"Senior, how did your trip to the Northern Continent compare to that to the Southern Continent?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Jiutian pondered for a moment and then said.

"The difference is still quite large. Compared to the Southern Continent, many places in the Northern Continent are still far behind."

"The development of various infrastructures is somewhat worse than that of the Southern Continent, but better than that of your Eastern Continent."

These comments left Ye Yun somewhat speechless, both amused and exasperated.

At this moment, he felt that Nangong Jiutian was like a leader on an incognito visit.

He shrugged and explained his assessment of Nangong Jiutian.

"That's normal. The Southern Continent is under the centralized rule of the Azure Dragon Empire, which makes its development more planned and faster."

"Although the Northern Continent is also under the rule of the Alliance, not everyone is of one mind, and the development in different places is more extreme."

"As for our Eastern Continent... it's divided into three factions, so it's normal for their development to be uneven."

Ultimately, each continent will have its own unique characteristics due to its different forms of governance.

A decentralized power structure is certainly incomparable to a centralized one in terms of development potential and speed.

Nangong Jiutian nodded in response and said calmly.

"I understand what you mean, so I am now considering something."

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion.

"What is it?"

Nangong Jiutian narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke slowly.

"You mean if we unified the four continents, no, the entire continent?"

"When all parties are integrated and resources are allocated in a unified and centralized manner, will it usher in an unprecedented golden age?"

In her view, this continent has been in chaos for far too long.

Various factions vied for supremacy, engaging in fierce battles to seize cultivation resources.

As a result of the struggle, cultivation resources were consumed even more, leading to a vicious cycle.

If everything could be unified, it would save a lot of unnecessary waste of resources.

When the time comes, those with talent will be given special attention and training, which will surely produce a large number of high-level cultivators.

But her idea surprised Ye Yun.

His expression was strange, and he couldn't help but complain.

"No, senior, are you planning to wait until later to standardize writing, cart axles, and weights and measures?"

Nangong Jiutian was taken aback for a moment, then quickly gave his approval.

"What you're saying isn't impossible."

"..."

Ye Yun was both amused and exasperated. The sight of Nangong Jiutian reminded him of an old friend.

Could this Nangong Jiutian be the reincarnation of His Majesty the First Emperor?

Ye Yun took a deep breath and sighed.

"I must say, senior, your idea is really too ambitious."

"Of course I know that."

Nangong Jiutian shrugged and said calmly.

"Don't misunderstand, I was just thinking about it casually, I'm not really planning to do it."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun looked at her expression and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

With that serious expression on your face, you really think it's just a casual thought?

However, he didn't have much evidence, so he had to give up for the time being.

Furthermore, if the Xuan Tian Continent could truly be unified, it might not be such a bad thing.

While the two of them were discussing a major event that would affect the mainland.

Suddenly, a sweet female voice came from afar.

"Young Master Ye! Senior Nangong!"

Upon hearing this voice, both Ye Yun and Nangong Jiutian were taken aback.

What's going on? Why are there people here to greet them?

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw two figures flying up one after the other from Wanmeng City below.

The person in the lead was none other than Jian Qing'er, who had previously given Ye Yun a headache!

Ye Yun didn't expect that before they even met, this person would approach them first.

It would be quite unbelievable if the other party just happened to be passing by and noticed them.

So much so that Ye Yun asked with a strange expression.

"Miss Qing'er? How did you know we were here?"
