The capital of the dynasty was thousands of miles in diameter.
Just the Imperial City in the inner ring was equivalent to big cities like Beijing, Tokyo, and New York in the olden era. Looking down from the sky, the Imperial City was like a huge square imprint in the center of the capital, branded on the ground. Countless people raised their heads to look, but it was still difficult to see the splendor of the Imperial City.
The imperial city was very empty. There weren't many imperial guards, but they were all abyssal level powerhouses. The captains among them had reached the level of the Lord of the Abyss. Their perception ability was enough to cover half of the imperial city. There were hundreds of Lords of the Abyss guarding the imperial city. Even if a grain of sand fell into the imperial city, they would be able to detect it.
Although the imperial city was big, it was empty.
The Imperial Palace in the center was incomparably huge, comparable to a city district. The palace was towering and majestic, extraordinary in style, as if it was the residence of a deity. Even the cold and cheerless feeling it gave off made it seem like the residence of a deity.
A flock of purple thunderbirds came from the sky and flew into the imperial city.
The imperial guards who were guarding the imperial city were about to stop them. But they stopped when they sensed the unfathomable aura of the thunderbird at the front. Wherever the thunderbirds passed, everyone bowed their heads in worship.
This was the majesty of a king.
It was also the pressure of a god!
Whoosh!
Dean floated down with Aisha in his arms. They landed on the steps in front of the imperial palace. He turned around and looked at the vast square that could accommodate millions of troops.
"I've been waiting for your return here …" Dean looked down at the world and whispered to the person beside him.
Aisha's body trembled slightly. There was an indescribable complex color in her eyes. She lowered her head so the man beside her didn't notice. When she raised her head again, the emotions in her eyes had converged.
She took a deep breath, grabbed Dean's arm and whispered, "I don't want these things. I just want you."
Dean smiled and stroked her head: "Fool!"
"I'm not stupid." Aisha pouted. She was a bit playful but also a bit serious.
Dean smiled: "Yes, of course you're not stupid. I'm the one who's stupid."
Aisha stared at his eyes and slowly lowered her head: "You are not stupid."
A gentle breeze swept over from the plaza. There was no obstruction, so the wind grew stronger and stronger. By the time it reached them, it had already become a violent gale, causing the two's clothes to flutter.
"Let's go in. I have a lot of things to tell you." Dean protected her body and slowly walked in. Although the cold wind would not make them feel cold, but his movements were still gentle, as if he was caring for a weak ordinary person.
Arriving at the Imperial Palace.
Dean led her to a huge palace: "This is for you. It has been empty for a long time. Now it has an owner."
Aisha looked up, lost in thought.
After a long time, she slowly withdrew her gaze and said, "I want to go to the old Sylvia to take a look. I heard that you didn't tear it down, but rebuilt the imperial city on it?"
"Alright, Sylvia is on the west side of the Imperial City. I didn't change the layout there, it's still the same as before." Dean laughed: "Now the people of Sylvia are the most distinguished people. I heard that the temper of the people living there has become bigger."
Aisha didn't speak but accompanied him slowly.
The two came to the west side of the imperial city. The towering giant wall was still towering. A high wall was built outside the giant wall to separate the giant wall from the imperial city. The giant wall was the inner city of the imperial city. It was the closest to the imperial city and also the closest to Dean. The people inside the giant wall had adapted to the changes. There were no more poor people and refugees. All the families had a carefree life and were well dressed.
The aristocrats relied on their advantages and status to vigorously develop the industry. They expanded the business territory to other giant wall and became famous tycoons in the dynasty.
But the aristocrats knew that they couldn't touch some taboos. Most of the children of the aristocrats moved out of the giant wall. They operated and lived in other industries of the giant wall. Sylvia's giant wall was like a home for them, but also like a holy land.
Dean changed his appearance. He draped a veil over Aisha's head and strolled with her in the city.
The Sighing Wall still existed.
The appearance of the city hadn't changed much. But some old houses had been demolished. Most of them were new houses. Even the outer wall area was luxurious and lively to the extreme.
"It's a big change …" Aisha murmured.
Dean nodded: "Although I forbade them to rebuild the city, but some people have money. They will repair their houses and make them more gorgeous. It looks more pleasing to the eye. The air isn't as smelly and messy as before."
"But that kind of air feels more real." Haisha whispered.
Dean was startled: "You are right. I'll let them dismantle all these and return to the original appearance. I'll forbid them to leave the giant wall and keep it closed like before."
Haisha quickly said: "No, it's a waste of manpower and money. The price is too high."
"But such a giant wall is not to your liking."
"It's nothing. Things will always change. People are the same." Aisha looked at the pedestrians coming and going in the street. She could no longer see the poor people in coarse clothes. They were all wearing silk cheongsam or mink coat.
The city was still there but the people had changed.
Dean heard her words and realized that he was negligent in this matter. His heart was filled with regret. There weren't many things that could make him regret. Even if some important people died, he could recreate them. But he didn't want to use this ability on her. If it was an ordinary person, he could even erase the memory of the other person and wait for Sylvia to be restored to its original state.
But he couldn't do it in front of her.
"At least I haven't changed." Dean stared at her. It seemed that he wanted to use his eyes to tell her all his feelings. He had never felt this kind of feeling. At this moment it was like he had taken off all the gorgeous armor and become an ordinary person. He was a young man who had fallen in love.
Aisha nodded and smiled: "I know."
Dean relaxed as he saw her expression. He accompanied her to continue to play.
Dean took her hand and wandered in the garden of the palace: "Now that you are back, I want to hold a wedding for us. Are you willing to marry me?"
"Very willing." Aisha didn't have the slightest shyness nor was she moved to tears. She just gently embraced his arms: "Very, very, very … very willing!"
Dean felt his body and heart melt at the same time.
He hugged her tightly.
