Where is the Kirin Clan

"Big bro, are we really going?"

"I... I'm a little nervous."

Upon learning that Chen Chang'an intended to visit the Qilin (Kirin) clan, Da Huang grew visibly anxious.

After all, Da Huang had been taken to the Tai Xuan Realm by Mu Yunyao at a young age and had no prior connection with the Qilin clan.

Now that he was finally returning home, his nervousness far outweighed his excitement.

"Could you be any more useless?"

"Didn’t you say before that you wanted to return to the Qilin clan to improve your cultivation?"

"Didn’t you say your clan had a way to restore the cultivation you’ve lost over the years?" Chen Chang'an said helplessly.

"Yeah, that’s what I thought."

"But now that we’re actually going back, isn’t it a bit... what’s that phrase again?"

"Oh right—'homesickness after long absence.'"

"Big bro, am I not cultured?"

Chen Chang'an smirked without emotion. Thinking you’re cultured just because you know a fancy phrase? How shallow.

A few days earlier, after much deliberation, Chen Chang'an had decided that since he had no clear goal at the moment, he might as well take things one step at a time.

Coincidentally, he could take Da Huang back to the Qilin clan, allowing him to reconnect with his roots.

As for Chen Chang'an’s departure, the powerful figures of the Liuyun Domain saw no issue with it.

Given Chen Chang'an’s current potential, he shouldn’t be confined to the Liuyun Domain. Instead, he should explore the vast world beyond.

As for Mu Yunhai, though he had wanted to accompany Chen Chang'an on his journey, he was mercilessly rejected.

"Speaking of which,"

"where exactly does the Qilin clan live?" Yi Tuo asked curiously.

After all, Yi Tuo was the only real mount among them—Chen Chang'an and the others merely rode on its back.

Not knowing the destination made Yi Tuo hesitate. Should it start moving or not?

"Da Huang, answer the question."

"Where’s the Qilin clan?"

Hearing Chen Chang'an’s words, Da Huang racked his brain, trying to recall the location from his inherited memories.

"The Qilin clan... damn it, why can’t I remember?"

Da Huang froze. His inherited memories contained no path home?

What kind of nonsense was this?

Were they barring him from returning?

Had he been exiled from the Qilin clan?

"You don’t have that memory?"

"Is your clan’s location really that secretive?" Chen Chang'an frowned.

"It is pretty mysterious."

"Among the three great clans—Dragons, Phoenixes, and Qilins—only the Dragon clan’s location is widely known."

"The Phoenix and Qilin clans’ whereabouts are known to very few."

"But as a Qilin, you really shouldn’t be clueless," Little Viper chimed in.

Da Huang gave Chen Chang'an an awkward look. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t remember.

"If I’d known you were this useless, I’d have asked Mu Yunhai first."

"Who’d have thought a Qilin wouldn’t know where home is?"

Chen Chang'an regretted sending Mu Yunhai away so soon. Now, they wanted to go to the Qilin clan but had no idea how to get there.

"Big bro, when you need me, I’m your good buddy. When you don’t, I’m just useless?"

"That’s no way to treat someone," Da Huang grumbled.

"Fine, I’ll handle it."

"I know," Little Viper said with a sigh.

"See? Even he knows. And you don’t?"

"Huh?"

"You knew all along and didn’t say anything?" Chen Chang'an glared at Little Viper.

"You... you never asked."

"Couldn’t you have volunteered the information?"

"Da Huang said not to be too eager—that’s being a simp."

"We follow the three-no principle: no initiative, no rejection, no responsibility."

"I—"

"Enough nonsense. You’re learning all the wrong things from him."

"Just tell me where it is."

Little Viper chuckled awkwardly before revealing the Qilin clan’s location.

The Qilin clan had lived for generations in the Golden Qilin Mountain Range of the Primordial Immortal Domain. The place was incredibly secretive, and few outsiders knew of its existence.

Without guidance, one might never find their way there.

"Why do you know?" Da Huang eyed Little Viper suspiciously.

Wasn’t this bastard a Dragon? And hadn’t he only been born recently? How did he know so much?

"Why wouldn’t I know?"

"You have inherited memories, but I don’t?"

"We’re both divine beasts—who do you think you’re looking down on?"

Da Huang found the explanation somewhat reasonable, though not entirely convincing.

The Qilin’s inherited memories lacked directions home, yet a Dragon’s had them?

"Big bro, I think this bastard’s hiding something."

"Hey, insult him if you want, but why drag me into it? What did turtles ever do to you?" Yi Tuo protested.

"Shut up. You’re not even a real turtle."

"And you’re not a real dog either."

Yi Tuo’s retort left Da Huang speechless. Damn it—he had no comeback.

"Enough bickering."

"Little Viper, you navigate."

"Let’s move."

"Go, go, let’s go!"

"Wait—how long will the journey take?"

"How long? Three to five years, maybe."

Three to five years?

That far?

"Godfather, that’s not even far. This is the Primordial Immortal Domain—it’s not like it’d take three to five days or months."

"Honestly, three to five years might be an underestimate," Little Viper explained.

Hearing this, Chen Chang'an conceded the point. The Liuyun Domain alone was vast, let alone the entire Primordial Immortal Domain.

"Fine, we’ll take it one step at a time."

"Spending years just traveling..."

Chen Chang'an sighed. He had originally planned to head straight for the Golden Qilin Mountain Range, but now it seemed they’d have to make stops along the way, treating it as a journey of exploration.

Before they knew it, a year had passed since Chen Chang'an left the Liuyun Domain.

During that time, he had only taken brief rests twice.

"Big bro, I’m begging you—we’re not in a hurry. Can we slow down?"

"Even if you don’t care about me, at least spare some pity for Yi Tuo."

"His four legs are getting worn down shorter and shorter."

"At this point, I think they’re scraping against his shell," Da Huang complained.

"Big bro, I’m fine, I can still—"

"Shut up."

Chen Chang'an sighed. Life had indeed become monotonous and dull lately.

Just as he was about to speak, his ears twitched slightly, and his brow furrowed.

"How interesting."

"Who’d have thought something like this would happen to me?"

Hearing this, Da Huang and the other two froze. What was going on? They hadn’t noticed anything.

"Big bro, what’s up?" Da Huang asked curiously.

"Want to know what’s happening?"

"Come on, I’ll let you hear for yourselves," Chen Chang'an said with a faint smile.
