Chapter 352 The Emperor's Grandson
Lu Zheng and his two companions had just arrived at Yunmeng Sect on a white crane when they saw a figure flying towards them.

"Junior Sister Bai Lu!"

Before the people arrive, the sound comes first.

A handsome man flew over and said quietly, "The Sect Master has ordered that Junior Sister Bailu take them to Yuyue Peak and receive them with the same courtesy as those people."

After saying that, the man raised his hand and threw lightly, and two purple jade plates flew towards Bai Lu.

Bai Lu took the sign and nodded gently, saying, "I understand. Thank you for telling me, Senior Brother."

The man smiled nonchalantly, turned around and walked away quickly.

Bai Lu finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the man walking away.

Only then could she be sure that she had not found the wrong person.

Bai Lu looked down at Bai He and whispered softly, "Go to Yuyue Peak, Yard No. 36."

The white crane chirped softly upon hearing the words, then adjusted its body slightly and flew towards a high mountain in the distance.

Within the Yunmeng Sect, the flying speed of the white cranes has slowed down a lot.

After a while, the white crane landed on the hillside of Yuyue Peak, outside an exquisite courtyard.

Bai Lu handed two jade tokens to Lu Zheng and said, "There are many forbidden areas in Yunmeng Sect, and even I can't set foot there. If you two want to go anywhere, it's best to bring these tokens with you. If you go somewhere you shouldn't, the tokens will react..."

"This is your residence. You can move around freely on this peak. If you need anything, there is a peak management office at the foot of the mountain. You can go there to find the manager..."

"It's getting late today, you two can take a break first. There's a sermon tomorrow morning, and I can take you there if you want."

Lu Zheng was slightly surprised when he heard this. "Preaching class? We can also go and audit it."

Bai Lu nodded slightly and said, "As honored guests, some things are allowed. You will understand after staying for a few more days."

"Is that so?" Lu Zheng understood a little and said, "Then please let Miss Bailu know tomorrow."

"Okay." Bai Lu replied, "Goodbye."

After saying this, Bai Lu flew away on a crane.

Lu Zheng couldn't help but whisper, "It was arranged very clearly."

Not long ago, I was still thinking about how to find Yunmeng Sect, but now I am here. It seems that I can live here permanently?

They come, the security.

Regarding the mysterious Yunmeng Sect, Lu Zheng decided to learn more about it before visiting the sect leader.

Qing Wan took the sign and looked at it, curiously asking, "Thirty-six, where we live... isn't number one? Could there be someone else living here?"

Lu Zheng also thought of this possibility.

He looked around and saw that there was only one yard here.

"Let's take a look at the accommodation first." Lu Zheng said.

When I arrived outside the courtyard gate, I could clearly feel a strong barrier and isolation from the formation.

Lu Zheng held the jade token and placed it on the barrier of the formation, and the originally closed courtyard door slowly opened.

As the two stepped into the yard, they were immediately greeted by a strong aura of spiritual energy.

The yard is not small, with several rooms, including a bedroom, a study, a alchemy room, etc.

The room was fully furnished, not only with daily necessities, but also with some spiritual objects such as spirit stones and elixirs, which were obviously prepared for the guests.

When Qing Wan saw the spiritual stone pill placed in a conspicuous place, she couldn't help but move over to check it out, her big eyes shining.

"Are these for us?"

Qing Wan was amazed and thought that the Yunmeng Sect was really arrogant.

"Can we take these things?"

Qing Wan turned to look at Lu Zheng, feeling a little conflicted for a moment, not knowing whether to take it or not.

Lu Zheng couldn't help but smile and said, "Leave it there. We have no shortage of ordinary spiritual objects. If you have anything rare, you can ask them to exchange it."

Qing Wan couldn't help but nod and said, "That makes sense."

Qing Wan paused, then continued, "But this place is really nice. It has a bedroom, a study, an alchemy room, a tea room, and a weapon refining room... We can renovate our courtyard accordingly."

"Let's talk about it later." Lu Zheng said.

"Dong dong dong..."

Outside, someone was knocking on the gate.

Hearing the sound, Lu Zheng and Qing Wan left the room and opened the gate to take a look.

Then I saw a young man in brocade clothes standing outside the door.

The man looked to be around twenty years old and looked quite noble.

"I was just saying there were new people here. Where are you two from?"

"Wait, don't tell me, let me guess..."

The man looked curious as he looked at Lu Zheng and the other man, his eyes flashing with golden light.

But the man did not use his spiritual power or divine sense to investigate, so he seemed both polite and impolite.

Seeing this, Qing Wan glared back at the strange young man.

The man touched his chin and said, "Are you from Qi? You look a bit like a scholar." "No." Qing Wan denied it directly.

"Isn't it?"

The man frowned and looked at Qing Wan. "You have a demonic aura. Are you from the Demon Country in the north? Or maybe you are from Yan Country? That's not right... If you are from Yan Country, you don't look like one."

As the man's guesses became increasingly unreliable, Qing Wan couldn't help but ask, "None of them are right. Where are you from?"

Upon hearing this, the young man straightened his back and said proudly, "My background is quite good. I am the grandson of the current emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Changan!"

It’s okay, it’s okay... Qing Wan stared at Liu Changan, a little surprised, but not too surprised.

She had seen princes and grandchildren before, so there was no need to be surprised.

"Oh! Never heard of it." Qing Wan said frankly.

"Uh……"

Seeing that the two of them didn't react much, Liu Changan couldn't help but ask, "Where are you two from?"

Qing Wan said, "My name is Qing Wan, and his name is Lu Zheng. I'm a pea spirit who grew up in the mountains, and he's a scholar from a small county town. Well, we're both strangers, and we've traveled and practiced together... Oh, and by the way, we're from Anguo."

Liu Changan was stunned when he heard this.

"Since you two are already here, there's no need to come up with such outrageous identities, right?"

Qing Wan looked up at Liu Changan and asked curiously, "What's so good about this?"

Liu Changan was very suspicious and said, "Anyone who can come here can only be an ordinary person, and ordinary people must have a great background! You must have a different background. Tell me, which big family or force paid to let you come here?"

Liu Changan looked at Lu Zheng and the other man, as if he had some guesses.

Lu Zheng thought of something when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Brother, how much did it cost to come here?"

Liu Changan blinked and said quietly, "One million spirit stones, and some rare natural treasures. In order to get a place to study in Yunmeng Sect, I fought with my fellow tribesmen to the death..."

Liu Changan paused and continued, "You two came, and there's also a little goblin? It must have cost a lot, you're really generous."

Qing Wan had a strange expression on her face and sighed, "You're really rich! You actually spent so much to come to Yunmeng Sect."

No wonder the Yunmeng Sect treats guests so lavishly, the wool comes from the sheep!
"That's right! Do you think you can just come to Yunmeng Sect casually?" Liu Changan said, "But the money wasn't paid by me, it was paid by my royal grandfather."

He didn't have that much family wealth. The royal family paid for his place in Yunmeng Sect to study, and he worked hard to get it.

The places to study here are first extended by the Yunmeng Sect through invitation. If you are willing to pay, you can come.

Of course, not everyone is eligible to receive such an invitation.

Moreover, this kind of thing was not spread outside, and outsiders had no idea that there was such an invitation.

"Hey, that's not right!" Liu Changan looked at Qing Wan suspiciously, "What did you mean by that just now? Didn't you spend that much money?"

Qing Wan shook her head. "No, we didn't give Yunmeng Sect a single spirit stone! We were walking on the road when someone picked us up here."

"Ah?" Liu Changan looked unconvinced. "What are your origins?"

Qing Wan said slowly, "Didn't I just tell you that? You don't believe me! If you want to know what's different about you coming here, we already knew someone from the Yunmeng Sect."

Hearing Qing Wan say this, Liu Changan finally believed it a little. It turned out that this was related to the Yunmeng Sect! No wonder they could get in without paying!

However, Liu Changan still firmly believed that there was someone behind the two of them, otherwise how could they come here?

Seeing that Lu Zheng and the other man were unwilling to speak, he had no choice.

Qing Wan asked again: "Where do you live?"

Liu Changan smiled and said, "At the foot of the mountain, in Yard No. 23, you can come visit me. It's right..."

Liu Changan pointed in a direction and gave an approximate location.

Qing Wan asked curiously, "Besides you, is there anyone else here who paid to come here?"

Liu Changan smiled and said, "There are quite a few. Didn't you realize that you live in number 36?"

Qing Wan thought how could they not know, it was just a trick.

Liu Changan said, "They should all be there for class tomorrow. You'll be able to meet a lot of people then... but some of them have bad tempers."

"You know, some people think they're noble, but even here they look down on others with their noses in the air. They don't even look at the road they're walking on, and they're not afraid of falling to their death!"

Liu Changan seemed to recall some bad memories and snorted angrily, "Everyone is like a descendant of the royal family or a saint. If it were in the Han Dynasty, I would have to..."

Qing Wan blinked and asked curiously, "Which one?"

Liu Changan coughed dryly and kindly reminded, "There's more than one. When you meet those people, don't tell them your origins, lest they dislike you."

Liu Changan paused and continued, "You two just arrived, so I can't bother you too much. We'll have plenty of time to chat later. I'm going back now. See you tomorrow..."

Liu Changan waved his hand, turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly stopped.

"Are you from Anguo? There are two Anguo people here. I don't know if you know them."

Qing Wan heard this and asked curiously, "Who?"

Liu Changan said slowly: "One is the Princess of Anguo, her name is An Jing, and the other is the descendant of the Anguo Martial Saint, her name is Huang Chong."

Qing Wan blinked and said, "I've heard of it."

"Really?" Liu Changan smiled. "Why don't you go find them and chat with them? It's like meeting old friends in a foreign land. One of them is in Yard 18, and the other is in Yard 27."
