The words "Baijing City" were hung high above the city gates.
A large group of fully-armed soldiers patrolled the city gates. The security was tight.
However, they were very lax with regards to pedestrians. They only needed to pay a small entrance fee to enter the city.
Gao Zhengyang followed Ye Xingsha and successfully entered Baijing City. They didn't encounter any checks. However, Ye Xingsha felt that her appearance was outstanding and eye-catching. She purposely wore a veil to cover her face.
Fortunately, many of the women here wore veils as well, so they were not eye-catching.
Gao Zhengyang was very curious about everything in Baijing City, and he looked around. In terms of architectural style, Baijing City was very crude and cumbersome. Most of the houses had pointed roofs, small windows, and heavy doors.
Every building was very sturdy. It had the style of an ancient western castle.
In terms of living, the interior of such buildings was very dark and unventilated. It was very uncomfortable. The only good thing was that it was safe. It could be seen that Baijing City was often involved in battles. That was why it had such architectural style.
Most of the pedestrians on the streets wore linen clothes that were very close-fitting and light. However, most of them wore tattered clothes and had gloomy expressions. The entire city seemed a little gloomy.
Overall, Baijing City looked like medieval Europe. Most of the people here had fair skin, blue eyes, and tall statures.
However, the streets of Baijing City were relatively neat and clean. At least there was no feces on the ground. Moreover, everyone spoke the same common language.
"Honey, why is this place called Baijing City?" Gao Zhengyang asked Ye Xingsha. This city was not big, and it was located in the middle of a mountain range. It did not even have a river, let alone any whales.
"Because it corresponds to the White Whale constellation." Ye Xingsha replied in annoyance. Then, she hurriedly reminded, "When we are outside, don't call her honey. It will expose our relationship."
Gao Zhengyang said nonchalantly, "We are husband and wife. What's there to be afraid of?"
He paused and asked unhappily, "Are you looking for another man?"
Ye Xingsha was furious. Her injuries had not healed, and she could not defeat Gao Zhengyang. She could only suppress her anger and say, "Don't talk nonsense. Right now, there are enemies chasing after us. We need to hide and not expose our whereabouts. "
Gao Zhengyang didn't seem to understand, so he asked, "What does that have to do with me calling you my wife?"
Ye Xingsha was stunned. Indeed, there was nothing between them. She just didn't want others to know that she had that kind of relationship with Gao Zhengyang. If word got out, it would be too embarrassing.
She hesitated and reluctantly explained, "We can't attract attention. We have to keep a low profile."
"Something's not right."
Gao Zhengyang shook his head. "The enemy doesn't know that you have a man like me. If we travel together, they won't be suspicious even if they see us. You're the one acting sneakily. I can tell there's something wrong with you. "
Ye Xingsha was speechless. She had thought that there was something wrong with Gao Zhengyang's brain, but he was actually very smart at times. This was especially true when it came to matters related to his wife.
"In order to fool people, I should call you my wife."
As Gao Zhengyang spoke, he even grabbed Ye Xingsha's hand. "Why are you hiding so far away? You don't look like my wife at all. You look more like a slave who has been bullied."
"I …"
Ye Xingsha didn't know how to explain. She could only say in a small voice, "Don't shout so loudly, okay?"
"If I don't shout, how will people know that you're my wife?"
Gao Zhengyang laughed out loud. Then, he patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry. Your husband is very strong. Don't worry. Follow me. You won't lose anything. On the contrary, you'll get a lot every day. "
Ye Xingsha didn't know what Gao Zhengyang meant. But when she saw that his smile was a little perverted, she somehow thought of something. Behind the veil, her face blushed.
She wanted to scold Gao Zhengyang, but she was too embarrassed to bring up that topic. She could only keep a straight face and keep quiet.
Gao Zhengyang, however, did not mind. He held her little hand with an excited expression on his face.
The two of them walked around the street. Ye Xingsha asked a few people for directions. Finally, they found Wuying Xian's house.
Wuying Xian's house was a huge house. There were guards in armor and swords guarding the door. It looked quite imposing.
Ye Xingsha went up and said a few words to the two guards. Then, she took out a token and gave it to them. One of the guards hurriedly turned around and entered the door.
"Who is this family?" Gao Zhengyang asked.
Although Ye Xingsha didn't like Gao Zhengyang's rudeness and directness, he saved her life after all. Since he sent her all the way here, she couldn't be too cold.
She explained, "Wuying Xian is a good friend of my mother. Back then, he was also a famous Silver Star Master. He's extremely powerful …"
Seeing that Gao Zhengyang was confused, Ye Xingsha was a little helpless. She could only continue to explain to him, "My mother passed away when I was young. Before she died, she gave me a token and told me to go to Wuying Xian if I needed help. Now, someone in my family is trying to assassinate me. Before we figure out who the mastermind is, I can't go back rashly. "
"So, we have to go to this Wuying Xian first?" Gao Zhengyang asked.
"Yes."
Ye Xingsha said, "Uncle Wuying Xian has opened a dojo in Baijing City for decades. He has many disciples and is very powerful. If we stay with him temporarily, at least no one will dare to kill us. "
Just as they were talking, a few young people walked out quickly. The young man in the lead was wearing a luxurious blue robe. He cupped his hands at Ye Xingsha from afar. "Is this Miss Ye Xingsha?"
"Yes."
Although Ye Xingsha was injured, she returned the greeting very meticulously. There was a kind of moving elegance in her seriousness.
The young men's eyes all lit up. Although Ye Xingsha's face was covered, her beauty alone was far better than all the beauties in Baijing City. As expected of a noble lady from the Imperial Capital.
"My name is Takeda. I'm the eldest son of the Wu Family. I'm here to welcome Miss Ye on behalf of my father …"
The young man in the lead introduced himself and looked at Gao Zhengyang. Seeing that Ye Xingsha had no intention of introducing him, he didn't care anymore.
In such a formal meeting, if it was an important person, the other party must be introduced to show respect. If she didn't introduce him, it meant that her status was low. There was no need to introduce her.
Ye Xingsha mainly didn't want to expose her relationship with Gao Zhengyang. She was also afraid that Gao Zhengyang would say something, so she didn't introduce him. Moreover, she felt that Gao Zhengyang grew up in the mountains. Although he wasn't stupid, he didn't know much about the world. He wouldn't notice such details.
Takeda then introduced his younger brothers to Ye Xingsha. They were Wu Shan, Wu He, and Wu Lin. Their names were all quite simple. However, all of them had bright eyes and astral power surrounding them. They seemed to be very skilled.
After the Wu brothers talked to Ye Xingsha, they all seemed a little excited. Wu Lin, who was the youngest, was still a little shy. His face was red when he spoke.
However, he didn't want to leave. It was his first time seeing such a graceful beauty. Her voice was sweet and gentle, but her actions were graceful and calm.
In comparison, the beauties in Baijing City were unbearably vulgar. It was really unappetizing.
The Wu brothers surrounded Ye Xingsha like stars surrounding the moon. They entered the main gate together.
The Wu family's residence was vast. Most of the front yard was used for training and quiet cultivation rooms. Some strong young men were practicing their spear techniques on the training field.
Their movements were uniform, and they shouted rhythmically. They looked quite imposing.
Takeda also introduced to Ye Xingsha proudly. "Our dojo has been established for decades. It's the largest dojo in Baijing City. There are more than two hundred disciples training here. These are the elites of this generation in Baijing City … "
Ye Xingsha nodded continuously. There were hundreds of thousands of people in Baijing City. Two hundred people wasn't a lot, but it represented more than two hundred families. Moreover, these youths of the right age would grow up in batches.
Wu Yingxian had been in Baijing City for decades. Who knew how many disciples she had? This was truly a powerful force.
After gaining Ye Xingsha's approval, Takeda put in more effort in his introduction.
Gao Zhengyang had long been pushed to the back by the crowd. However, he heard everything Takeda said very clearly. He was also a little interested in Wu Yingxian.
Without a doubt, as the only Silver Star Master in Baijing City, Wu Yingxian was considered an expert. Moreover, he had been teaching disciples for decades. If he didn't have some skills, he would have been defeated long ago.
Gao Zhengyang still didn't have a complete understanding of the power system of the Star Demon Realm.
Of course, he had already understood some simple concepts.
The most important thing for humans in this world was to find their own Natal Star. Of course, this required all kinds of secret cultivation to strengthen their senses and accumulate star power.
When they found their own Natal Star, they would be able to greatly increase the efficiency of using star power. Moreover, they could use their Natal Star to create Star Equipment!
Star Equipment was undoubtedly the most direct and effective way to use power.
Only those who could create Star Equipment could be called Star Masters. The lowest level was Bronze, and the highest was Gold.
Relatively speaking, there were more Bronze Star Masters. Almost one in ten Bronze Star Masters could be found. However, most Bronze Star Masters could only create one Star Equipment.
Due to the limited number, Bronze Star Masters would usually condense Star Battle Armor. This was also the mainstream in the Star Demon Realm. Including Gold Star Masters, they would rarely create other forms of Star Equipment.
After hundreds of thousands of years of accumulation, the Star Armor in this realm was the most mature and perfect. Even a Bronze Star Master could condense an extraordinary Star Armor according to the nature of the Star Power.
Because of this, the Human Race in this world was able to survive tenaciously and continue to develop and strengthen.
Of course, compared to the star beasts, the human race was still too weak. They could only form a city to defend against the star beasts. Only within the radius of the city could they be considered safe.
The vast world outside the city was still the world of the star beasts.
Gao Zhengyang and Ye Xingsha had been traveling together for the past two days, and he had gotten a lot of information from Ye Xingsha.
He could tell the whole picture just by looking at one spot. Through Ye Xingsha's words, Gao Zhengyang had a general understanding of the situation of the human race. As for Ye Xingsha's situation, although she did not say anything, Gao Zhengyang could guess most of it.
The Ye Xing family was one of the top ten families in the capital. Although they were ranked last, they had many powerful secret techniques. Throughout the ages, they had produced many experts and had a prominent position in the history of the human race.
As the eldest daughter of the Ye Xing family, Ye Xingsha was considered to be extremely talented. She was already a Silver Star Master at a young age and was deeply favored by the family head.
Ye Xingsha's life was originally very comfortable. However, when the family head became seriously ill, there was a turbulent undercurrent in the family. There was also a rumor that the family head had passed the position to Ye Xingsha, which put her under even more pressure.
In the end, Ye Xingsha was ambushed when she went out on a hunting mission. Many of her followers were killed or injured. Even Ye Xingsha was severely injured.
At the critical moment, Ye Xingsha activated the Meteor Token and teleported herself deep into the mountains. If she had not coincidentally met Gao Zhengyang, she would have died.
The Meteor Token was given to her by Wu Yingxian. It was a special Star Equipment that he had created using star power. It was also because of the guidance of the star power on the Meteor Token that Ye Xingsha was able to walk out of the forest and find Baijing City.
Ye Xingsha was brought to the inner hall alone to meet Wu Yingxian. Gao Zhengyang, who did not have much of a presence, was treated as Ye Xingsha's follower and given a room to rest.
Although they did not value Gao Zhengyang, Ye Xingsha was of high status. Takeda and the rest still arranged excellent treatment for Gao Zhengyang.
There was a single room, clean bedding, and bread and other food on the table. Moreover, he was also given a bath.
There was a big wooden bucket filled with clean hot water.
Gao Zhengyang only took a glance and lost interest in the wooden bucket that was full of water stains. Although his strength was restricted, some of the Dragon Emperor Immortal Body's abilities were not affected.
No filth or dust could stain his body. It could be said that Gao Zhengyang was much cleaner than anyone else in this world.
Although Gao Zhengyang was not hungry, he still tried the food here. The freshly baked bread was still soft, but the grains were very obvious. It smelled good, but it was not that good when eaten.
He put down the food and silently used Shadow Shadow. The level of Shadow Shadow was not high, but he was too strong. With a thought, he established a connection with the star in the sky.
The gathering Dark Star Power flowed down from the top of Gao Zhengyang's head like black ink. Soon, the ink-like Star Power solidified and formed a suit of armor that perfectly fitted Gao Zhengyang's body.
The armor was dark and did not reflect light at all. Gao Zhengyang walked to the window. When the sunlight shone from the window, the armor became translucent.
However, anyone who was not blind could tell that something was wrong with the change in color. The armor could only be hidden from the eyes of others in the shadows.
Gao Zhengyang was not very satisfied with the Star Armor. With his strength, he could be said to have pushed Shadow Star Power to the extreme. However, the Star Armor was useless.
Clearly, the Looming Shadow Technique only had this much power. There was no need to study it anymore.
Gao Zhengyang decided that he would pay a visit to the owner of this place, Wu Fengxian, later.
Wu Fengxian, who was chatting with Ye Xingsha, suddenly felt his heart tighten. He sensed an indescribable malice.
He couldn't help but be stunned. The malice was so strong that it seemed unavoidable and difficult to resist. He had encountered many dangers in his life, but he had never felt something like this.
Wu Fengxian established a connection with the Brilliance Immortal Star when he was young. Since then, he had a strange ability to sense danger in advance. Thanks to this superpower, Wu Fengxian had a smooth life and achieved what he had today.
The sudden warning made Wu Yingxian lose interest in chatting too. He did not know where the danger came from. He only knew that he had a warning the moment Ye Xingsha arrived.
Obviously, the danger was brought by Ye Xingsha. Of course, he might have guessed wrong.
Wu Fengxian did not care about that. The danger was like a huge net that covered the sky, and he could not find a way to dodge at all. It would be useless to blame Ye Xingsha at this moment.
Besides, although the danger was unavoidable, he might not die.
Wu Fengxian pondered for a moment and said, "You are injured. Take a good rest for a few days. We'll talk about other things after you recover. "
Before Ye Xingsha could refuse, Wu Fengxian waved his hands at his sons, signaling them to take care of Ye Xingsha. Then, he stood up and left.
That was a bit out of etiquette. Even Ye Xingsha was a bit stunned. They were talking nicely just now. Why did he stand up and leave?
Takeda did not understand what his father meant either. He hurried over and smiled apologetically. "Miss Ye, I'll send you to rest first …"
Ye Xingsha thought for a moment and said, "Where is my attendant?"
"In the guest room."
Takeda said, "I've arranged everything. He will stay next to you."
"No need. After all, men and women are different."
Ye Xingsha said, "How about this. Arrange a separate room for me to rest."
"Okay, okay …" It was a trivial matter. Takeda hurried to agree.
"By the way, there is something wrong with his brain. He talks nonsense sometimes. Don't take it seriously."
Ye Xingsha reminded, "You better keep an eye on him. Don't let him run around and cause trouble."
Takeda said, "I'll take care of these trivial matters."
Ye Xingsha added, "He has something wrong with his brain. Don't be offended if he does anything impolite."
"Don't worry. Nothing will happen." Takeda was very smart. He could tell that Ye Xingsha was disgusted. Although he did not know what was going on, he only knew what to do.
Takeda personally sent Ye Xingsha to the inner residence. Just as he came out, he ran into his youngest brother, Wu Lin.
"Big brother, bad news. Miss Ye's attendant is causing trouble."
Wu Lin's face was full of panic. He shouted when he saw Takeda.
Takeda was a bit dissatisfied. "Look at how old you are. You still don't act properly. What's with all the fuss! "
He waved his hand. "Don't rush. Talk after you catch your breath."
Wu Lin's face was red. He could not even wait to catch his breath. "Second brother and third brother were both beaten by that guy!"
"What?"
Takeda's expression changed. The Wu brothers were used to bullying others in Baijing City. They were the only ones who bullied others. They had never been taken advantage of.
Hearing that his brothers had been beaten, Takeda flew into a rage. "You piece of trash. How could a group of people get beaten by one person?"
Wu Lin felt wronged. "That guy is strong. We can't beat him."
Takeda walked forward quickly. "He's Miss Ye's attendant. Why did you guys beat him?"
"It was that guy who was shouting. He said he wanted to find his wife …"
Wu Lin lowered his head. "We didn't want to bother with him. Second brother teased him and said that his wife wasn't here. He said that Miss Ye was his wife and that we hid her. We wanted to steal his woman … "
