Without the hindrance of the sea monsters or the arrival of a storm, they successfully arrived at the port closest to Northern Border City in half a month. Due to the appearance of the underwater palace and the expansion of Northern Border City, the original port had disappeared. Now, Northern Border City was no longer the capital city near the sea.
The two-eared cat was obediently held in Shang'er's arms, not daring to reveal its true form. Everyone around it was someone it could not afford to provoke, especially the little girl who was holding it in her arms. It felt even more terrified.
They disembarked from the boat. Ye Zhen asked Fire Phoenix to keep an eye on Shui Yichen in case he tried to escape again.
Shui Yichen, however, was not in a hurry to escape. He knew that he couldn't escape anyway. This was China, his hometown. When he saw Qi Yu, he would naturally have a way to make Ye Zhen let him go.
"It's still early. Let's continue our journey." Ming Xi said. They had arrived at the shore at dawn. It was still early in the morning. If they hurried, they might reach Northern Border City by tomorrow morning.
"Rest," Ah Bu said coldly. She looked at Huang Fuchen, thinking that he must be tired.
Huang Fuchen said indifferently, "I'm fine. Let's continue our journey."
Ah Bu's expression darkened. She knew that Huang Fuchen was angry because she was hiding something from him.
It wasn't that she didn't want to say it, but it wasn't time yet.
"Sir, we can rest here for the night. We're not in a hurry anyway." Ming Xi said, forgetting that Huang Fuchen's body was that of a mortal. Unlike them, he could recover without sleep for a few days and nights.
Huang Fuchen smiled. "I've had a good rest these days. We can continue our journey. What about Ah Dong?"
Ye Chundong patted his chest. "I've long been used to this kind of life on the sea. There's no problem."
"Then let's go." Ye Zhen saw that they weren't being polite, so she didn't force them. She asked Ye Chundong to use the Ye family's connections to find a few horses and carriages so that they could travel briskly.
They took the official road. The official road in China was very wide. Whether it was horses or carriages, they could travel smoothly.
Just like in Nanzhou, they still didn't encounter any ferocious monsters. The towns they passed were prosperous and undamaged.
Was it because the ferocious monsters didn't come here, or was there another reason?
Ye Zhen's gaze landed on Bu 'er, who was sitting on the shaft of the carriage.
Huang Fuchen originally wanted to ride a horse, but Ye Zhen asked him and Ye Chundong to stay in the carriage, while Shui Yichen was brought by Fanfan.
She would never allow Shui Yichen to get close to Huang Fuchen and the others.
Did the peace and prosperity of China have anything to do with 'No'?
Noticing Ye Zhen's gaze, Abdul suddenly looked over, her eyes sharp and resentful, as if Ye Zhen had destroyed something of hers.
How interesting! Ye Zhen raised the corner of her mouth slightly and continued to ride forward.
Ming Xi and the Fire Phoenix thought that riding a horse was too slow, so they had already gone to Northern Border City.
Tomorrow, before Ye Zhen and the others entered the city, they saw Ye Yiqing waiting outside the city gate with the Fire Phoenix.
"Daddy!" Ye Zhen looked happy as she jumped off the horse's back and ran towards her father.
When Ye Yiqing saw his daughter, a faint smile appeared on his elegant face.
"How old are you already? Still shouting like a child." Ye Yiqing held Ye Zhen's hand, the smile in his eyes growing wider.
"Didn't you say that no matter what happens, I will always be your child?" Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Ye Yiqing laughed. "You have the best memory."
"Daddy! Are you all right? Where are my wife and brother? " Ye Zhen asked eagerly. She hadn't seen Zhao Yang for many years, let alone her younger brother. Thinking that there was such a brother in this world, her heart was full of expectations.
"They are at home. You will see them when you go back." Huang Fuchen said with a smile.
Ye Zhen smiled and nodded. Seeing the Fire Phoenix beside Ye Yiqing, she asked, "Where are Ming Xi and Jin 'er?"
"They …" Fire Phoenix pointed to the east. "They are looking for the sealed palace."
Wu Sheng came over and whispered to Ye Zhen, "You go back first. Leave the rest to us."
Ye Zhen's heart was tangled. She wanted to visit Zhao Yang and her brother, but she had more important things to do.
"We can go back home anytime. It's better to go to Ming Xi first." Ye Yiqing said.
"Okay." Ye Zhen thought for a moment and nodded. "But first, find a place to lock him up."
Ye Yiqing looked at Shui Yichen. Ming Xi had told him about Shui Yichen earlier. He sighed at the man who was once all-powerful.
"Take him to the dungeon first." Ye Yiqing said in a low voice. "The emperor will deal with the rest."
The emperor he mentioned was Qi Yu. He already knew what happened to Shen Luoyang. He would never let Shui Yichen go.
"Daddy, you can't treat Shui Yichen as an ordinary mortal. He has cultivated the Black Blood Demon. Although … the black blood worms in his body have been taken away, I still don't feel at ease. It's best not to get close to him." Ye Zhen lowered her voice. The people of China may not even have seen a demonic beast. If Ye Yiqing was not her father, she wouldn't have dared to speak so clearly.
She was afraid of being treated as a monster.
Ye Yiqing himself had experienced the miraculous events of transmigration. So when Ye Zhen told him about the Xuantian Continent, he completely believed it. So, no matter how strange it was, he believed it.
"I will have someone lock him up alone." Ye Yiqing said in a low voice.
"Daddy, when Qi Yu interrogates him, tell me first. I will have someone protect Qi Yu." Ye Zhen said.
Ye Yiqing agreed. "Okay."
"Fire Phoenix, take Shui Yichen and lock him up first." Ye Zhen said to Fire Phoenix. She and the others headed east.
"Lord Ye." Huang Fuchen and Ye Yiqing could be considered good friends. The two hadn't seen each other for many years. Now that they met again, they were naturally very happy.
Although Ming Xi told Ye Yiqing most of the things, he did not mention Huang Fuchen. So, when he saw Huang Fuchen here, Ye Yiqing was surprised. However, he did not show it on his face. "I haven't seen you for many years, Sir. You are still as elegant as ever."
"Not even one ten-thousandth of Lord Ye." Huang Fuchen's words were sincere. After so many years, Ye Yiqing didn't seem to have changed. This was probably related to his indifferent personality.
Huang Fuchen was already an extremely talented person. However, after meeting Ye Yiqing, he admired this man very much.
"Little Yao!" Wu Sheng suddenly called out to Ye Zhen and looked in another direction.
"What's wrong?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise.
Wu Sheng frowned. "It seems to be Ying Yang …"
Ye Zhen's expression changed. "He's awake?"
"Over there. I will go look for him." Wu Sheng pointed in the direction of the palace. As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared.
