Chapter 1237 – Offering to the Shrine
”I say, Boss, have you guys found anything wrong?”
Not long after walking on this very spacious main road, the big crab among the Eight Sect team couldn’t help but open his mouth to ask the crowd.
Entering into the inner part of the protected city, the outer foot of this huge imperial city was giving people an extraordinarily empty feeling, and even people were rarely able to be seen.
The king seemed to have thought of this question a long time ago, and a smile appeared on his face to answer Big Crab’s query.
”Because this is the Xuan Yuan Imperial City Imperial City, two words are already able to serve as a reply to your answer, this is not a place where just anyone can freely enter and exit.”
Not long after, a team of carriages and horses stopped in front of the king and the others, there are about dozens of people, these people are worth mentioning is that their dress code is not a military armor look, it looks more like some assassin’s dress, each person is a black fine clothes, even the larger weapons are not equipped.
But the breath fluctuations released from these few people, even Xu Yang could not help but look high, there is no doubt that these dozens of people are the forbidden guards near the Xuan Yuan Imperial City.
Their duties were very simple, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, every day was constantly circling around the Xuan Yuan Imperial City, found any suspicious close to the target, shoot to kill.
Their most terrifying power was that as long as they recognized the existence of danger, they would only kill on the spot, not even report to Xu Yang.
After solving the suspicious target, they have the right to dispose of it at will, whether it is thrown into the nearby wilderness mountains, or refined into nothingness on the spot, all depending on the dozens of them to make their own decisions.
Each patrol team has a leader who is solely responsible for handling these matters.
Of course, every other month, these several patrols would have to report a report to the Cloud Dragon Heavenly Emperor himself.
The list of all the people they had disposed of would be presented to the Cloud Dragon Heavenly Emperor, as for what kind of power these people were secretly controlled by no one was sure.
The group of caravans in front of them, after seeing the king’s team, respectfully came in front of Xu Yang’s team, first nodding slightly to the king, and then sweeping Xu Yang and the others with a stern look in their eyes.
Just as the king was still planning to personally explain the identity of Xu Yang and the others, as well as their purpose of entering the Xuan Yuan Imperial City, this black-clothed leader said nothing, directly waved his hand behind him, remounted his carriage, and continued to start the parade.
It soon disappeared in front of the eyes of the crowd.
”Holy shit what the hell is this?
They haven’t said a word since the beginning and just let us go forward like this?
Could it be that in their eyes, these people of ours don’t pose the slightest threat at all?”
Big Crab suddenly had a feeling of being ignored, making him very upset, while his words thus amused the Fifth Prince and the others.
”It seems that inside the Imperial City they have gotten exclusive orders to deliberately let us pass, I think it should also be Father’s orders.”
But the more they traveled unhindered all the way like this, the more it brought an invisible pressure to Xu Yang and the others.
What kind of person was the Cloud Dragon Heavenly Emperor?
Everyone was more than clear, but it was during this trip that Xu Yang’s team seemed to have been given special favors, or special care, more than once, was this arrangement intentional?
Whether this arrangement is intentional or unintentional, no one can give a clear answer.
However, both coming and going has always been Xu Yang’s guideline for doing things, since there was no special arrangement on the part of the Cloud Dragon Heavenly Emperor, there was no need for his team and the others to scare themselves.
After all, it was necessary to meet the Heavenly Emperor himself, no matter what kind of attitude the other party had, as long as they could enter the interior of this Xuan Yuan Imperial City, everything would be revealed.
There were no more obstacles until the crowd arrived at the foot of the Regulus Imperial City, some of the golden-armored warriors guarding the northern gate of the Imperial City routinely carried out a very strict check on each and every one of Xu Yang’s team.
Especially Arnold and the others, the battle axe artifacts that they carried with them were also seized one by one.
For the point of seizing the weapons.
The people in the Eight Sect team had been psychologically prepared.
After all, this was the Xuan Yuan Dynasty.
How could it be possible to casually allow a team of top cultivators like Xu Yang’s team to have an audience with their equipment?
”Your Royal Highness the Martial King, there is an order within the city that today is the second day of the seventh month, and all those who enter the Xuan Yuan Imperial City must go through the Vermilion Bird Gate and worship the Vermilion Bird God Statue before being able to enter the city further.”
Hearing the general guarding the city say this, the prince still didn’t seem surprised at all, as if he had prepared for it in his heart.
One had to admit that the Fifth Prince was thorough, and almost rarely made mistakes in such minor details, and nodded with a smile on his face.
The fifth prince will even worship the Vermilion Bird God statue, Xu Yang’s some of the gifts also let his men followers are ready, after the guarding generals team one by one sieve blood blade without any danger, this is to open the northern city gates.
Just when this huge city gate slightly open a moment, Xu Yang team every one of them are in front of the Xuanyuan Imperial City lofty scenery completely shocked.
”My gosh, it can’t be the Imperial City, this place is the most majestic and magnificent place I’ve seen in all the years I’ve lived.”
Big Crab’s eyes froze as he watched, and the other brothers of the Eight Sect Team all had the same expression.
”Under the heavens, there is no place that is not the king’s land, standing at the very top of the position of power and being able to enjoy such a lofty palace should perhaps be a life that the vast majority of people in this world can only dream of.
Even if you have to carry the eternal loneliness, I think it’s worth it.
At least for any man, having such a dream is a matter of course.”
The old crow leaned on his walking stick and couldn’t help but feel some emotion from the bottom of his heart, saying that this Xuan Yuan Imperial City is a fairyland is a bit of an exaggeration, but all the buildings in here have the kind of unattainable feeling of honor.
Not to mention that the north gate in front of this tunnel leading to the Vermilion Bird Gate, horizontal also has a width of nearly a hundred meters.
The king led Xu Yang’s team without any further hesitation, and after passing the inspection of the guarding general, he immediately led the crowd straight to the right direction where the Vermilion Bird Gate was located.
After traveling for about half an hour, they finally saw the outlines of some brand new buildings. The so-called Vermilion Bird Gate was actually a mountain road, bypassing which they entered the temple area where the Vermilion Bird Gate was located, and only after paying homage were they able to enter the inner part of Xuancheng from the direction of the back of the mountain.
For some reason, Xu Yang had just stepped into the Xuan Yuan Imperial City, especially as he got closer to the direction where the so-called Vermilion Bird Gate was located.
Xu Yang’s body had already experienced a very familiar feeling.
