Chen Ping’an disembarked from the immortal ship mid-journey to travel to the rather reclusive Sweet Wormwood Nation.
He chose to stick exclusively to secluded mountain paths over the journey of several hundred kilometers, traveling day and night as fast as the wind.
It didn’t take him long to find the provincial city, and he had only just made his way onto Cave Immortal Street when the doors of a house were opened, following which a young man emerged from within, waving at him with a smile.
