Zhenyuan City. This was the largest stronghold of the Western Lion Empire, built in the center of the Qilian Mountains, where heavy soldiers were to be regrouped and used to wage war against the returning Uighurs.2

Zhenyuan City was built in the valley, next to the mountain and the water. There were seven or eight small strongholds built in the surrounding mountain passes to protect the center of Zhenyuan City. It had formed a complete defensive system that was enough to gather troops of at least a hundred thousand people.

In the southeast of Zhen Yuan City, in the direction of the Western Lion Empire, the official road was already completed. All kinds of supplies could be delivered endlessly to Zhen Yuan City from the Western Lion Empire.

When Cheng Qing arrived at the valley, there were many people walking on the official road. Other than the bounty hunters, there were also many caravans.

Of course, the most important thing was still the Imperial Army. Zhenyuan City had just been built up, and the defensive work was still in the process of being coordinated.

At the city gate, through the crowd, Cheng Qing saw the notice posted in Zhen Yuan City.

The intention was very simple: Xi Liang was going to use troops against Qilian Mountain, seize the Amethyst Mountains and the Wolf God's Ruins, call upon the free experts and bounty hunters of the martial arts world, and join the army, or participate in the hunt for the wolf.

In the end, the announcement listed out the standard for military merits. Generally speaking, it was more than twice as high as normal. From this, it could be seen how determined the Western Lion Empire was to take over Mount Qilian. Of course, the Uighurs should have the same attitude.

Cheng Qing looked at the bulletin board for a while, then took down some useful information before turning around and entering the city. As he left, a pair of sharp, malicious eyes stared at his back from the crowd.

"Du Li, what are you looking at?" Bai Jingxue asked curiously.

"I saw that kid!" "That little bastard who provoked me at Liuxi Town!" Du Li's face darkened.

Bai Jingxue blinked, "Are you sure?"

Du Li gritted his teeth and said, "I definitely won't be wrong!"

As the two conversed, a cultivator wearing a black cloak and a bamboo hat walked over. "Is that the boy from last time?"

Du Li quickly said: "Boss Lu, it's that brat! I just saw him enter the city, but he walked fast, so I didn't have time to follow him. "

Boss Lu snorted coldly, "Once we arrive at Zhen Yuan City, we'll meet him sooner or later."

The city was full of beautiful flowers, and it was even more lively than Cheng Qing had expected. All kinds of shops were lined up in rows upon rows of rows of shops, and pedestrians were walking side by side. As a stronghold city, there were very few ordinary people that were active in Zhen Yuan City. Even the shop assistants were cultivators.

Cheng Qing glanced over and saw ordinary soldiers among the patrolling imperial army. Although these ordinary soldiers had no vitality, they still had a strong and vigorous temperament. They had clearly experienced a battle of life and death on the battlefield. When cultivators accidentally bumped into them, they would often face angry glares, or even shouts and curses.

Cheng Qing stopped a cultivator on the street and used a spirit stone as a price to find out where the military merits and goods were registered.

Cheng Qing's Heaven and Earth Pouch was already filled with military merits, and needed cleaning long ago. In the Western Lion Empire, the accumulation of military merits could grant one a title of nobility. Not only could one obtain a fief's land, one's own safety could also be guaranteed by the empire.

The place to exchange for military merits was the military office located in Zhen Yuan City. There were two white jade stone lions that were taller than the head of a man. The guards were all in the Xumi Stage, which showed the extraordinary background of the imperial army.

The last time Cheng Qing went back to exchange military merits, it was at the City Lord's Mansion in Spirit Martial County. In comparison, the military's military meritorious exchange center would undoubtedly have more good items.
