The situation in the Boundless Realm had changed. The antiques that had long been thought to have vanished in the annals of history had reappeared. The appearance of the five sealed ancient cities in particular made the various heavyweights even more restless.
Just as the entire Boundless Realm was in turmoil, the Soaring Cloud City where Gu Fei's clone was located remained calm as usual.
This world-class upheaval had yet to affect the city in the mountains. Even the entire Eastmoon Empire had yet to be affected.
However, the arrival of Gu Fei's clone and Dongyue Xue 'er caused the city in the mountains to boil.
"Her Highness has entered the city with the Overlord War God."
The explosive news immediately spread throughout the entire Soaring Cloud City. The entire city was in an uproar, and countless people surged towards the main street of the city gates from all directions.
The Overlord War God was a heavenly figure to the people of Soaring Cloud City. He was an awesome existence that even the lord of the Overlord Empire had to be wary of.
It could be said that more than half of the current territory of the Overlord Empire had been conquered by the Overlord War God.
Even the Eastmoon Empire had always been at a disadvantage in the war against the Overlord Empire. If it were not for Black Qilin City blocking the Overlord Empire's advance, the Eastmoon Empire would probably have been destroyed long ago.
When the news that Dongyue Xue 'er had actually captured the Overlord War God alive in the battle of Black Qilin City, everyone in Soaring Cloud City was naturally extremely excited.
However, due to the cover-up of some people, the news of Dongyue Xue 'er capturing the Overlord War God alive had yet to reach the Eastmoon Royal Capital.
This was because the merit of capturing the Overlord War God was just too great. Countless people were green with envy. Previously, the greatest of the younger generation of the Hu clan, who was also Dongyue Xue 'er's fiance, wanted to take away her merit.
Now, the procession into the city suddenly stopped, because an uninvited guest had blocked their path.
Furthermore, what surprised Dongyue Xue 'er was that she did not even see the shadow of the city lord of Soaring Cloud City.
She was the princess of the Eastmoon Empire. She had come to Soaring Cloud City, yet he, a mere city lord, actually did not come out to welcome her. Was he looking to die?
The crime of looking down on the royal family of the East Moon was not something a mere city lord of Soaring Cloud City could bear.
However, when Dongyue Xue 'er saw the well-dressed young man with a folding fan blocking the way, she immediately understood what was going on.
"Imperial Brother, instead of enjoying your life in the Imperial Capital, you've come here to be a road-blocking dog. If Imperial Father were to find out, your position as the second in line to the throne would be in imminent danger."
Dongyue Xue'er sneered.
When the well-dressed man heard this, a cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes, but he wasn't angry.
"Royal Sister, I heard that you've captured the Sky Hegemonic Battle Immortal alive, so I've specially come to welcome you. I've already arranged a banquet in the City Lord's Mansion. I hope that Royal Sister will do me the honor."
The well-dressed young master waved his fan and said with a faint smile.
"Haha, Royal Brother Yuan Liang, I've already called you a dog, and you're still not angry. You're really a man who does great things!"
Dongyue Xue 'er laughed.
"…"
Hearing this, Dongyue Yuanliang remained calm, as if he didn't care at all.
When Gu Fei's clone, who was acting as a coachman, saw this, he couldn't help but have a higher opinion of the well-dressed young master. This person was extremely shrewd, and he was extremely calm.
Such a person was either a fool or an ambitious and ruthless person.
Since this guy was a member of the Dongyue royal family, and even the second in line to the throne, he was definitely not a fool. Therefore, this guy had the bearing of a formidable character!
"Royal Sister, you must be joking. Please!"
As Dongyue Yuanliang spoke, he turned his body and made an inviting gesture.
"Alright, I'd like to see what you're up to."
As she spoke, Dongyue Xue 'er swung her whip.
The group continued forward.
At this moment, the City Lord's Mansion was decorated with lanterns and streamers. A group of important figures of the city had gathered outside the gate, and everyone was looking at the street.
"Greetings, Your Royal Highness!"
When Princess Dongyue's group arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, those people immediately knelt before Dongyue Xue 'er.
"Where's Chen Aotian?"
Dongyue Xue 'er leapt off her horse, completely ignoring these people.
Chen Aotian was the City Lord of Soaring Cloud City. He was not a member of Dongyue Yuanliang's faction, but a subordinate of the first in line to the throne, the crown prince of the Dongyue Empire.
Dongyue Xue 'er and the crown prince shared the same mother, while Dongyue Yuanliang was born of the imperial concubine. Moreover, the empress of the Dongyue Empire had already passed away many years ago.
Moreover, ever since the empress passed away, the Dongyue Imperial Lord had not conferred another empress.
Dongyue Yuanliang and his mother obviously wanted to ascend to the throne.
One wanted to be the empress, while the other wanted to be the crown prince.
The imperial court of the Dongyue Empire was already clearly divided into two factions. One was the crown prince's faction, and the other was Dongyue Yuanliang's faction.
Therefore, Dongyue Xue 'er obviously did not like this second brother of hers.
"City Lord Chen is not feeling well, so he cannot come to greet Your Royal Highness. Please forgive him, Your Royal Highness."
An armored general walked out from the welcoming group and bowed to Dongyue Xue 'er.
"Chen Fang?"
Dongyue Xue 'er could not help but be surprised when she saw him. He was the younger brother of City Lord Chen Aotian, Chen Fang. Why would Chen Fang appear here?
Actually, from the moment Dongyue Xue 'er saw Dongyue Yuanliang, she knew that the city lord of Soaring Cloud City was most likely done for.
With Dongyue Yuanliang's abilities, killing Chen Aotian would be as easy as crushing an ant.
It seemed that something must have happened to Chen Aotian. However, if something had happened to Chen Aotian, why would Chen Fang still appear here? This was worth considering.
"Royal sister, please!"
Dongyue Yuanliang smiled.
"Tch, do you think I'm afraid you'll eat me?"
Dongyue Xue 'er smiled. With Gu Fei's clone and the fatty as her trump cards, she was not afraid that her dear second brother would cause any trouble at all.
In front of outsiders, Dongyue Xue 'er and Dongyue Yuanliang were on good terms. After all, they were real siblings, even though they did not share the same mother.
"Wang Zhan, come with me. Fatty, you guard the prisoner's carriage. The rest of you, set up camp here!"
Dongyue Xue 'er ordered. The square in front of the City Lord's Manor was very wide anyway. It was more than enough for a team of thousands to set up camp here.
At this time, the square was filled with people. Everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of the Sky Overlord War God.
However, when they really saw the Sky Overlord Martial God, who was tied up like a rice dumpling, they were all very disappointed. Was this old man really the number one Martial God of the Tyrannical Sky Empire, whose name shook the world?
"Say, you know it's a Hongmen Banquet, yet you still dare to come. You sure have guts!"
Gu Fei's clone, who had entered the City Lord's Manor with Dongyue Xue 'er, transmitted his voice to the princess beside him.
"Tch, with a personal guard like you around, what do I have to be afraid of?"
Dongyue Xue 'er replied with a voice transmission.
