Zhan Ning brought the information gathered by Han Zhan and the others to report to the Fallen Knight.

The three who received the subsidies all had smiles spreading across their faces.

Andrew immediately placed a row of gold coins on the table of the Nightingale Inn's landlady. The landlady, who hadn't spared him a glance earlier, now stood up with a smile, skillfully assuming a pleading posture.

"Arrange one for me."

"Alright, sir, I'll have the girls stop resting and come down to let you choose."

Just as the landlady was about to sway her hips and head upstairs, Andrew called her from behind.

"Not a woman, a man," Andrew said.

"???

Han Zhan and Di Long, who hadn't left yet, were instantly shocked upon hearing Andrew's words.

They involuntarily faced Andrew and slowly retreated outside the Nightingale Inn.

Although Di Long's body had mostly recovered, there were still some hidden ailments. He needed to find a specialist nursing master for deep healing.

With nothing to do, Han Zhan decided to wander around Sun Never Sets Port.

The three of them parted ways.

Sun Never Sets Port, being a coastal city, primarily conducts trade via the sea. The closer one gets to the coastline, the more crowded it becomes.

Various types of ships can be seen everywhere, packing the coastline tightly.

People of all kinds disembark from the ships, while those on the shore board them and sail elsewhere.

Han Zhan approached a young man waiting to board a ship at the shore and curiously asked, "From Sun Never Sets Port, where can you sail to?"

"Dan Emperor Port, Buvilo Port," the young man, after sizing up Han Zhan, replied.

In the past two days of thorough investigation, Han Zhan had become familiar with these two ports mentioned by the young man.

They both fall within the territory of the Sun Never Sets Knight Order, accessible not only by sea but also by land transportation.

"What about other forces? Can you go there?" Han Zhan asked another question that concerned him more.

The young man gave him a peculiar look.

"Of course not. There are boundaries between the major forces. If you want to travel to another force, you need a passage permit signed by the Sun Never Sets Knight Order."

"Only with a passage permit can you leave the Sun Never Sets Knight Order, and similarly, only with this permit can you be allowed to enter other forces."

Then why could Zhan Ning travel to the Anti-Xia Alliance and return unscathed?

Realizing the young man he queried was just an ordinary person, Han Zhan added a condition.

"What about a Tier Seven Knight? Do they also need a passage permit?"

"Of course not. Tier Seven Knights are core members of our Sun Never Sets Knight Order. Their travels are no longer restricted by ordinary rules. Not just us, but other forces' members above Tier Seven enjoy similar treatment."

I see.

Han Zhan nodded, indicating he understood.

To leave Sun Never Sets Port, aside from signing a formal passage permit, one can only break through to Tier Seven and become the backbone of a force to move freely.

Understanding this point, Han Zhan now had a temporary direction if he wanted to head to the Anti-Xia Alliance to find Gongyang Jin.

"My current strength is Tier Six Peak. Breaking through to Tier Seven isn't difficult, but I need an opportunity."

"And there's also the Spiritual Remains."

The Spiritual Remains are one of the keys to subsequent breakthroughs.

His previous advancements from Tier Four to Tier Five and Tier Five to Tier Six were incredibly smooth due to the Tier Nine Celestial Serpent Spirit Remains that his teacher, Li Shutong, had prepared for him.

It also granted Han Zhan the powerful passive talent of the Celestial Serpent Body.

When Han Zhan didn't yet understand what the Alien Race meant, his concept of the Spiritual Remains was merely that they were special materials obtained after killing Alien Races.

But now, knowing that major forces treat Alien Races as prey for breeding, Han Zhan's perspective began to change.

"Why doesn't every Exotic Beast drop Spiritual Remains? Is there a pattern to their appearance?"

"Is there something that can replace the Spiritual Remains?"

"In the Ancient Era when there were no Alien Races, how did they cultivate and break through?"

These questions remained unanswered for the time being.

Even the ways of breaking through and strengthening power differ among the various forces; the path ahead is something he must slowly navigate on his own.

As Han Zhan stood by the waterfront of Sun Never Sets Port, lost in thought amidst the comings and goings of the ships,

a commotion suddenly erupted by the port.

The previously busy and orderly port seemed to have been paused, causing the pedestrians to crowd together instantly, tightly surrounding the port.

This sudden change interrupted Han Zhan's thoughts.

His gaze swept over the crowd to the source of the commotion.

It was a young woman with fair skin and exquisite beauty.

She possessed remarkably beautiful features characteristic of the Imperial people.

Whether it was her white skin exposed to the air or the flawless face beneath her slightly curled golden hair.

Her long legs were wrapped in a light blue Knight's battle robe, revealing a hint of white that stirred imagination.

The charisma she exuded with every move sparked a surge of hormones in all the men who laid eyes on her.

Heavy breathing noises arose around.

The men of Sun Never Sets Port seemed to begin fantasizing about their own imaginary moments.

Seeing this scene, Han Zhan frowned slightly.

As Han Zhan furrowed his brow, the young woman surrounded by the crowd also suddenly turned her head to look at Han Zhan.

Their eyes met.

Without any hesitation, she walked in his direction.

The "crowd" around her also surged in the direction of her movement.

Han Zhan's frown deepened.

"Are you under Zhan Ning?"

From her attire, Han Zhan immediately deduced that she was a Knight from the Sun Never Sets Knight Order.

Furthermore, based on the spiritual power fluctuations emanating from her, this female Knight in front of him was at least of Tier Seven level!

In response to her question, Han Zhan nodded slightly.

"Yes, I am a Tier Six key Knight under Lord Zhan Ning, Bob."

"Tier Seven Punishment Knight, Yu Lian. You may also call me, Moon Knight."

Yu Lian's voice was gentle, seemingly carrying a unique rhythm that made one's ears tingle and felt a bit drowsy after listening.

She didn't unleash her Knight's Aura, yet her formidable charm was akin to a unique captivating aura, attracting the surrounding men.

Except for Han Zhan.

"You're quite special."

"I have something even more special. Want to see?" Han Zhan responded nonchalantly.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Han Zhan's response, Yu Lian broke into a rare smile.

Her smile was as bright and clear as if clouds had parted to reveal a luminous moon.

Leaving everyone around her spellbound.

"I was somewhat skeptical, as you're not a Knight. But listening to what you just said, you must be one of Zhan Ning's key Knights without a doubt."

Yu Lian chuckled softly.
