C452 Arriving at the imperial city
Ye Xiao's group headed northwards, and when they met with the city s, they practically did not rest at all. After galloping for close to ten days, they finally left the vicinity of Anping County. If Ye Xiao walked alone, it would naturally be extremely fast. However, with Ye Pingnan and the others around, their speed naturally decreased by quite a bit.
After passing through a group of dense forest, the chunky Old Man who led the way said, "We will arrive at Xing Sheng city after another hundred miles. which meant he had entered the boundaries of the Imperial City. But to enter the Imperial City, we need to travel about two to three thousand kilometers to the north. "
Ye Xiao heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. The formation of the two thousand odd kilometers was just around the corner in two or three days. He didn't know how the situation in Night City was, but if Yuan Emperor was here, he would probably be thrown into a panic.
"Let's go!" Ye Xiao bellowed, and took the lead to rush forward.
The Imperial City of the Qi Dynasty was the most prosperous city in the entire Qi Dynasty. To the east was the New Moon County, all the way to the west was Dingbang City. The north was close to the Ice County that Ye Xiao had visited before, while the south was the gateway to the Imperial City. Furthermore, the Clear Stream and the Wasteland counties also had a small number of interactions with the Imperial City.
It could be said that Imperial City was almost at the center of the entire Zhongyuan State.
A thousand year old dynasty had no internal troubles and no external worries. This caused the entire Imperial City to be filled with flourishing song and dance. But even so, no marquis dared to underestimate the dynasty. A thousand years of inheritance, although a bit decayed, but it also represented an unrivalled foundation.
Furthermore, the Tian Ji Sect was standing behind the imperial court, the two great forces were working together to intimidate the Central Continent. Although there were many small fries, there weren't many who dared to act rashly.
The entire Imperial City took up an area of more than a thousand miles and was divided into an inner city and outer city. The outer city was for commoners and the inner city was for royalty. A single city wall divided a world into two parts, each with a different way of survival. However, because of the peace of the dynasty, even though they were commoners, they could be considered to have no worries in eating.
The inner city was much smaller than the outer city, and it was only 100 kilometers away. However, the people within a hundred mile radius practically decided the fate of all the citizens in Zhongyuan State.
The outer city was harmonious and noisy, while the inner city was solemn and quiet. Within the inner city, tall and luxurious mansions guarded the Royal Family palaces at the very center of the city. In one of the manors, on top of a vermillion door, there was a golden signboard. However, other than the words' 21st ', there was nothing else on it. Two Sergeant s clad in red armor, one on the left and one on the right, guarding the two sides of the gate. With a single glance, one could tell that the cultivation of these two people were definitely extraordinary.
Within this mansion called 21, there were many pavilions and pavilions, and flowers, birds, trees, and trees flourished in abundance. Inside a purple-gold pavilion, a Youth wearing a purple-gold robe was dozing off with his eyes closed.
Suddenly, a ray of light flickered in front of Youth. Youth opened his Eyes and extinguished the light in its hand. Within his calm eyes, there was a trace of excitement.
"Haha, Brother Ye's speed is pretty good. We should be able to reach Imperial City in two more days." The purple-gold robed Youth muttered to himself. After that, his eyes lightly turned as he muttered to himself, "Mn, this news must be reported to royal father. The Brother Ye has a different identity now. Although he came here alone, he should still receive him seriously, and it would not be any less imposing than when he is my brother. "
"Someone, come!" A Old Man appeared in front of him. He bowed and asked: "Your Highness, what orders do you have for me?"
Youth waved his hand and said: "Prepare, inform Forbidden Palace that I have something to request to see royal father."
Old Man bowed in acknowledgement, then he moved slightly and disappeared from Youth's side.
After a while, a group of beautiful purple gold ceremonies appeared. Youth straightened his clothes and took the lead to walk towards the continuous golden hall in the center of the city.
In this inner city, there was actually a rather strange structure right beside the Imperial City s. This building was quite magnificent, to the point where it was even slightly better than the Forbidden Palace s. The entire building was built with piles of gold, but the edges were outlined by a purplish red. From afar, the entire building looked like a phoenix that was about to spread its wings and fly away. It was extremely magnificent and noble.
In the center, there were three extremely large red words: animal fighting ring. That's right, this is the animal fighting ring's headquarters. To be able to occupy a position on the side of the Forbidden Palace, it showed the strength of the animal fighting ring.
Inside this strange building, were all the core members of the animal fighting ring. On the top floor, there was a cold faced Black Man, whose Eyes s were flickering as they watched the bustling crowd below.
This was like the most ordinary people, the crowded crowd, all of them were Your Excellency's objects. Anyone who took it out would be a character that would cause fear and reverence.
"Tap, tap, tap." The sound of light footsteps sounded out. It was extremely ear-piercing in this empty top level hall. Black Man turned his head to look, only to see a young White robe walking over.
"Greetings President!" The White robe spoke softly.
The Black-robed man slightly nodded, but did not say a word.
The White robe middle-aged man continued: ", Steward has received a message."
"Oh?" On Black-robed man's expressionless face, there were some fluctuations. White-robed man took out a sparkling jade stone and handed it over to him with both hands. Black-robed man waved his hand lightly, and the White robe bowed as he left.
"Could it be that there is something wrong with the Night City?" Black-robed man frowned, then a light flashed in his hands and a voice rang out, "I, Steward, Steward greets you. When Ye Xiao returned to the Night City, he was suddenly ambushed, and Ye Xiao managed to kill all the disciples of the Ten Origin Sects unharmed. After an interrogation, there is still the Yuan Emperor that is about to visit the Night City, so Your Excellency is bringing his family to the Imperial City to avert trouble, please make a decision. "
Shock flashed past Black-robed man's eyes, but it quickly turned into pleasant surprise after a while. He muttered to himself, "The heavens are truly on my side, yet this Ye Xiao, who received the attention of Great Clan Elder, has actually come to Imperial City. As long as I can satisfy him, with the help of Great Clan Elder, my cultivation will probably advance another step. "
"Hmph, a mere Yuan Emperor dares to lay a hand on someone the Great Clan Elder has paid attention to. He is simply courting death."
This Black-robed man was indeed the animal fighting ring's chairman, Tu Fan. After interacting with the Great Clan Elder and the others many times, he was extremely shocked by the power of the Great Clan Elder. Although he had already become a middle stage Yuan Emperor, in front of the Great Clan Elder, he was like an unarmed mortal.0
"Please come, Chief Reverend. I have something to instruct you." Tu Fan's voice was a little louder as he spoke towards the empty hall.
"Yes sir!" A voice came from the void.
After traveling at top speed for nearly three days, the majestic and imposing Imperial City suddenly appeared in the line of sight of Ye Xiao and the others.
The short and fat Old Man said, "We will reach the Imperial City in the front."
After Ye Xiao heard this, the worry in his heart finally subsided.
