"You child!"
Watching Ao Wenyun run off, Ao Qing sighed helplessly and turned to look at his daughter beside him.
"Then you go, follow me."
"I'll also introduce you to Mr. He."
Mr. He?
Ao Luoxi listened to her father's words, her heart filled with curiosity, "Father, what is the background of this Mr. He?"
She could somewhat tell that her father was taking her primarily to meet this Mr. He, while the East Sea Dragon King's celebration seemed to be secondary.
This made her incredibly curious. Who exactly was this person that her father would value him so highly, placing him before the East Sea Dragon King?
"Mr. He, ah..."
Ao Qing heard this, pondered for a moment, then smiled faintly, "He is truly an extraordinary person. His Dao cultivation is unfathomably deep, and when he Cultivates, his Dao progresses with astonishing speed."
"In two days, after you meet this Mr. He, you must be respectful and treat him as an elder, understand?"
Ao Qing's main intention in taking his children to He Xiuyuan was to let them become familiar with He Xiuyuan, hoping that in the future, they might need his help in some way.
Given He Xiuyuan's profound Dao cultivation, it was not impossible that they might need his assistance.
It was just that Ao Wenyun, that boy, disliked the Dragon Clan outside the East Sea and looked as if he would rather die than go.
"Understood, Father."
Ao Luoxi quickly responded. She also didn't like going to the East Sea, but since her father had said so, she couldn't refuse.
Looking at his daughter, Ao Qing hesitated for a moment before asking, "How is your Cultivation progressing now? Have you mastered the Cloud Manipulation and Rain Invocation Technique?"
"Not yet, the Cloud Manipulation and Rain Invocation Technique is simply too difficult."
Hearing her father's words, Ao Luoxi lowered her head, her expression dim.
She knew that her father often performed Cloud Manipulation and Rain Invocation for the sake of the two of them. Even though her father's Dao cultivation was profound, performing Cloud Manipulation and Rain Invocation in so many places was still somewhat overwhelming for him.
Over time, it would definitely harm his Dao cultivation.
It was just that the two of them, even now, still couldn't learn the Cloud Manipulation and Rain Invocation Technique, so they could only trouble their father, who was constantly busy and working hard outside.
"It's alright, it's alright. Take your time, and don't be too anxious."
Seeing his daughter's appearance, Ao Qing knew that the two of them were under a lot of pressure, so he immediately reassured her.
After speaking, Ao Qing handed the prepared gift list to his daughter, asking her to check the quantity of the gifts to avoid any omissions.
Ao Luoxi took the list and turned to leave.
Watching his daughter's departing back, Ao Qing stood rooted to the spot for a long time, not moving. After a while, he finally let out a sigh... "Immortal Master..."
Wang Shikai arrived in front of He Xiuyuan's resting room and called out softly.
The village had already prepared breakfast, and he wanted to invite He Xiuyuan to eat.
However, the room was quiet. After Wang Shikai called out several times, there was still no movement inside.
Seeing this, Wang Shikai's heart skipped a beat, and a premonition of something bad arose within him.
After a brief thought, he quickly reached out and knocked on the door, wanting to see if He Xiuyuan was inside.
But as he knocked, the door creaked open slightly.
Wang Shikai quickly poked his head in to look, but there was no one inside. The room was already empty.
"Ahead is the capital city, Chang'an."
He Xiuyuan walked on the main road, looking ahead, and soon saw the towering city walls. Vaguely, He Xiuyuan could also see the words 'Chang'an' on the city gate.
Looking at this scene, He Xiuyuan recalled briefly.
The Song family should be in Shengping Ward. Speaking of which, the one day spring from Chunxi Restaurant should have been brewed by now, right?
He wondered what the taste of the one day spring, made with the complete recipe, would be like?
Thinking of this, He Xiuyuan couldn't help but shake the wine gourd at his waist. The previous peach blossom wine had already been finished. If he could take some of this one day spring with him, that would be nice.
At this thought, He Xiuyuan's lips curved slightly, and he strode towards the capital city.
A moment later, He Xiuyuan entered the capital and walked in the direction of Shengping Ward.
The markets within Chang'an were divided into blocks, with one hundred and eight wards, distributed very neatly throughout Chang'an City.
He Xiuyuan followed the main road all the way to Shengping Ward. After walking for about half an hour, he arrived in front of Shengping Ward, and then He Xiuyuan strode inside.
"Selling candied hawthorns! Sweet and sour candied hawthorns!"
"Flower cakes, fragrant and refreshing flower cakes, come and try them all!"
"Selling sweet soup, delicious sweet soup!"
Upon entering Shengping Ward, within moments, various noisy hawking sounds filled the air, and the aromas of various foods continuously wafted over.
He Xiuyuan walked on the street, looking at the somewhat familiar streets around him, smiled, and continued walking forward.
Some of the vendors on the street had changed faces, but many still looked somewhat familiar.
He Xiuyuan walked slowly forward, and a moment later, he stopped in front of a restaurant.
"Chunxi Restaurant, this is it."
He Xiuyuan arrived in front of Chunxi Restaurant, and just as he was looking at the Chunxi Restaurant, he saw that the front of the restaurant was packed with people.
Moreover, the crowd was extremely long, which made He Xiuyuan stare for a moment.
What was going on? He hadn't been here for only a year, and this restaurant was already so popular?
He Xiuyuan's eyes showed surprise as he looked at the restaurant in front of him a few more times, confirming that the people queuing outside were all waiting for a table.
"Brother, why is this restaurant so popular, with so many people queuing?"
He Xiuyuan came to the end of the line, looked at the long queue, and asked a scholar-like person at the end of the line.
The scholar-like person turned his head and scrutinized He Xiuyuan up and down. Seeing that He Xiuyuan was well-dressed, he immediately became very polite.
"Judging by your appearance, brother, it seems you are from out of town?"
The scholar cupped his hands and said to He Xiuyuan.
"Indeed, I am from out of town. I heard that the one day spring here is excellent, so I wanted to come and see it, but looking at such a long queue, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink it today."
He Xiuyuan looked at the restaurant in front of him, then at the long queue, and couldn't help but sigh.
The scholar couldn't help but smile upon hearing He Xiuyuan's words, "Brother, since you've heard about Chunxi Restaurant, why haven't you heard about Manager Qian of Chunxi Restaurant's dream message?"
"Manager Qian of Chunxi Restaurant's dream message?"
He Xiuyuan was stunned upon hearing this, and couldn't help but recall what he had discussed with the Lord City God of the City God Temple last year.
So, the dream message incident had spread?
