Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 400 Searching for a Guide

Chen Fan came to and pulled Su Qingyan into his embrace, "Had a nightmare?"

Su Qingyan felt the warmth and presence of the man beside her, and her heart grew much calmer, then she nodded.

She wasn’t planning to share this feeling in her heart with Chen Fan right away, firstly because it was a baseless sensation, one that even she couldn’t determine whether it was just a misperception or a figment of her imagination, and secondly, because she didn’t want to worry Chen Fan over such ethereal matters. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Moreover, with Chen Fan’s formidable strength, even if there really were something coming for her, she believed that Chen Fan’s power would surely protect her fully.

Not dwelling on the thought, Su Qingyan affectionately snuggled into Chen Fan’s arms and soon drifted back to sleep, at ease.

The next day, Chen Fan and Su Qingyan bade farewell to everyone at Yunxi Martial Arts School and continued their journey south.

Along the way, they would stop and go, admiring the scenery, tasting the local cuisine, experiencing the local customs, and having a fantastic time.

After more than half a month, they finally arrived at their destination, Luoyun City.

"Initially, when the Ghost Witch Sect experts locked onto our Qi, I took the opportunity to reverse-trace and roughly locate their position. But at the time, I hadn’t broken through, so I wasn’t able to pin down the exact location, only vaguely sensing that the Ghost Witch Sect was in a mountain range near Luoyun City, at a place called Worry-Free Valley."

"Luoyun City borders the mountain range and has complex terrain; if we go into the mountains blindly, we might get lost, which is why we need to find a guide familiar with the mountains around Luoyun City to take us to Worry-Free Valley. Then, I can rely on my Divine Sense to pinpoint the Ghost Witch Sect’s exact location."

As Chen Fan explained to Su Qingyan, he led her to a place known as "Amazing Adventure Travel Agency."

He did an online search for information about travel agencies and saw that Amazing Adventure Travel Agency had high ratings. Moreover, it claimed to have a thorough knowledge of the surroundings of Luoyun City and often had teams going into the mountains for adventure, so he chose this one.

The two entered the travel agency to make inquiries.

Instantly, a man wearing a sun hat and a work badge around his neck came up to them with a smile, "Dear guests, are you looking to travel or go on an adventure? We offer a wide range of activities here, whether you’re looking to relax on vacation or seek an amazing adventure, we have it all..."

Chen Fan cut him off directly and said, "I’m looking for a guide who knows the location of Worry-Free Valley."

The man’s eyes widened, "Worry-Free Valley? You want to go there?"

Chen Fan glanced at him, "Is there a problem?"

The man said, "Worry-Free Valley is one of the most dangerous places in the nearby mountains. Not only is its location hard to find, but it’s also filled with unexpected dangers. Some even say there’s a man-eating monster there. Even among the locals of Luoyun City, there are few who can easily find its location, and even fewer who have the guts to go..."

Chen Fan, "If that’s the case, then let’s find another place."

The man quickly stopped Chen Fan and said with a grin, "Hey, don’t leave! I haven’t finished talking yet!"

Only then did Chen Fan stop.

The man continued, "Although Worry-Free Valley is dangerous, and virtually no one would go to such a godforsaken place for an adventure, our Amazing Adventure Travel Agency happens to have a guide familiar with Worry-Free Valley. And you are in luck because today there’s a group forming to go to Worry-Free Valley. If it were just the two of you, the guide’s fee would be doubled."

Chen Fan rolled his eyes at him and thought to himself that since there was a guide, it would’ve been simple enough just to say so; there was no need for all that prattle.

"Then let’s go and join those people to form a team," Su Qingyan said eagerly from the side. Although she already possessed considerable strength, she’d never experienced this kind of adventure before and was thus excited.

The man smiled and said, "You two, precisely because Worry-Free Valley is rather dangerous, the guide fees are more expensive than for ordinary adventures. Each of you will need to pay twenty thousand yuan for the guide fees, and an additional three thousand yuan for insurance. If any accident occurs, it will all be covered by the insurance company, with no relation to our travel agency."

So you said all that just to wait for this moment... Chen Fan didn’t want to waste any time and directly handed over his bank card, "Then hurry up and swipe the card."

The man was slightly surprised to see Chen Fan so decisively hand over his bank card; judging by Chen Fan’s clothes, he’d thought he would give up when he heard the price.

However, he glanced at Su Qingyan standing beside Chen Fan and thought that if it were him bringing such a stunning beauty out, he’d definitely not admit to being short on money, even if it meant scraping the barrel.

Without further hesitation, he swiped Chen Fan’s card and then had both of them sign a contract.

Chen Fan glanced at the contract and saw that the travel agency had cleared all responsibilities, as if afraid of being accused of liability in the case of any accident.

But he and Su Qingyan weren’t truly going on an adventure, so they didn’t mind these details.

After all the procedures were completed, the man led Chen Fan and Su Qingyan towards the inside of the hall.

"The group of explorers you’re about to team up with have extraordinary backgrounds, they are the young masters and misses of the Sun Family, the number one elite family in Luoyun City. So when you meet them later, it’s best to be polite to avoid offending anyone," the man cautioned.

Soon, the three of them arrived in the travel agency’s backyard, where seven or eight individuals were already waiting.

One of them, a girl dressed in sportswear with long hair and wearing a cap, carried an air of nobility and pride in her eyes; she seemed to be the leader of the group.

There were also four well-dressed bodyguards wearing sunglasses, standing to the side, apparently tasked with protecting the girl.

Chen Fan observed the four bodyguards and discovered that they all possessed Great Achievement in Internal Strength. In a small city like Luoyun City, having four experts with Great Achievement in Internal Strength serving as bodyguards was quite a lavish arrangement.

A middle-aged man with a slightly hunched figure, dark skin, and a stubbled face was talking to the people around him.

The man responsible for Chen Fan and Su Qingyan approached the middle-aged man and said, "Lao Cai, these two are also going to Worry-Free Valley. They’ve already paid, so you can take them with you when you go."

Lao Cai was the guide for this expedition, and his weathered appearance made it clear that he was a shrewd individual.

He turned his head to glance at Chen Fan and Su Qingyan and then nodded, "Then you two come over here, and I’ll go over the precautions one more time."

Chen Fan and Su Qingyan followed the arrangement and moved to join him.

At that moment, the girl wearing the cap frowned and said, "Didn’t we agree to only bring our own people before? We have important business in Worry-Free Valley this time. What if these two burdens delay our mission?"
