The white marble floor tiles glowed with a gentle luster. Inside the dazzling palace, there were painted beams and cornices. A few beautiful phoenixes and luans perched on precious wood to comb their feathers.
Inside the palace of the Grand Emperor City's City Lord, a thin man in a dark golden summoner's robe gripped a letter with a gloomy expression.
The man's complexion was yellow and his eyes were sunken. At a glance, one could tell that he was someone who indulged in sensual pleasures. Although his appearance could be considered decent, there was always a sinister aura around him.
This person was the only son of the Grand Emperor City's City Lord, Xuan Wuji.
Xuan Wuji was a summoner and was also the fiancé of Yuan Shahua in name.
Ever since he was injured by Yun Bahe, although he had been treated by a famous doctor in Grand Emperor City, his physique was much worse than before.
In addition, his fiancée's annulment of the engagement had caused him to lose face in Grand Emperor City.
He had always hated Yun Canglang to the core and had always been thinking of ways to leave Grand Emperor City to seek revenge on the Yun father and son.
Grand Emperor City was a famous city in the Boundless Continent. The descendants of the Xuanyuan Tribe had lived here for generations.
Xuan Wuji was a summoner and was also the fiancé of Yuan Shahua in name.
Ever since he was injured by Yun Bahe, although he had been treated by a famous doctor in Grand Emperor City, his physique was much worse than before.
In addition, his fiancée's annulment of the engagement had caused him to lose face in Grand Emperor City.
Even though he was now married and had children, he still hadn't forgotten the humiliation he had suffered back then.
He had always hated Yun Canglang to the core and had always been thinking of ways to leave Grand Emperor City to seek revenge on the Yun father and son.
Back then, he had tried his best to kill Yun Canglang, but his Dharma Soul had been shattered by Yun Bahe's palm.
Although he was cured with Di Hong City's medicinal pills, his cultivation remained stagnant because of this. Even his Di Hongge's cultivation did not improve.
In Grand Emperor City, the status of a person was determined by the cultivation of Di Hong Song.
Yuan Shahua's rejection of the marriage had caused him to lose the opportunity to enter the Tomb of the Xuanyuan Emperor. This also meant that he might lose the position of City Lord in the future.
He originally thought that Yun Canglang would have to endure a thousand times more pain than him. Who knew that the letter from the Jade Capital today would tell him that Yun Canglang's hand and dou qi had recovered?
In a few days, Yun Canglang would rush to the southern border of Zhou State.
The southern border of Zhou State? Humph, isn't that where that little bitch, Yuan Shahua, lives in seclusion?
As long as he was around, Yuan Sha Hua and Yun Canglang could forget about being together.
Xuan Wuji felt as if there were needles on his back. He paced back and forth in the residence. Although he wanted nothing more than to tear Yun Canglang to pieces, he was also worried. Back then, he had been pressured by the Yuan Clan and promised them that he wouldn't touch the people of the Yun Clan.
Moreover, he had city affairs to attend to now, so he had no reason to leave Grand Emperor City without permission.
Xuan Wuji's face darkened as he crumpled the letter into a ball.
As he was thinking, a strong fragrance of pollen wafted over. A young girl ran in from outside the courtyard.
The young girl was dainty and beautiful. Her skin was as white as the snow of the Northern Kingdom. She wore a small yellow jacket and her radiance made the flowers around her lose their color instantly.
As soon as the young girl entered the door, the leather whip in her hand swung and lashed out at the Phoenix-Luan standing on the branch. The Phoenix-Luan was startled and immediately flew up, shaking off a few multicolored feathers.
When Xuan Wuji saw the young girl, the gloominess on his face dissipated. He walked up to her dotingly. "Meimei, who provoked you again?"
The young girl was the youngest daughter of Grand Emperor City's mayor, Xuan Meimei. She was also Xuan Wuji's half-sister.
"Who else could it be? It's Yuan Bupo, that damned brat!" Xuan Meimei's face was filled with anger as she bit her cherry red lips.
Speaking of which, it was a sin. Xuan Meimei was Xuan Wuji's sister and the person she liked was Yuan Bupo.
Back then, due to Yun Canglang's appearance, Yuan Shahua, who had always been docile, insisted on breaking off the engagement with Xuan Wuji.
Although Grand Emperor City's mayor did not say anything, he had already decided to let Yuan Bupo marry Xuan Meimei after he reached adulthood.
Both of them were about the same age. What was even rarer was that Xuan Meimei's talent was not inferior to her brother, Xuan Wuji.
Xuan Meimei was dainty and beautiful. She was considered a delicate flower in Grand Emperor City. Since young, she was deeply loved by the mayor and her brother. She was also known to be unruly in the city.
However, she was dead set on Yuan Bupo and stuck to him since young.
However, because of his eldest sister's marriage, Yuan Bupo avoided relationships between men and women. When he found out that his family wanted to pair him up with Xuan Meimei, he ran away without even informing them when he went out on his trip this time.
When Xuan Meimei found out, Yuan Bupo had already gone to Zhou State. When she found out, she was even more furious.
Xuan Wuji was quite fond of his younger sister. When he saw Xuan Meimei's expression, he suddenly had an idea.
"Meimei, how about this? You know that father loves you the most. Why don't you plead with father to let me escort you out of the city? Don't worry, as long as I go out with you, I will definitely help you find Yuan Bupo. "Xuan Wuji was also very worried. His younger sister was too simple-minded. If they left Grand Emperor City, the guards would not be able to do anything to her.
"Big brother, don't try to fool me. You clearly want to use me to sneak out of the city. Why do you still hate that Yun guy?" Xuan Meimei was not stupid. She glanced at her brother.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. As long as you plead with father, I will promise you that after leaving Grand Emperor City, I will find you a suitable guqin. You have already cultivated the Di Hong Song to the fifth movement. It's time for you to have a good guqin." Xuan Wuji was very fond of his younger sister.
Xuan Meimei's eyes lit up when she heard that.
Xuan Wuji was in charge of purchasing all kinds of things in Grand Emperor City. He had dabbled in all kinds of rare treasures and precious artifacts. A guqin that caught his eye would definitely be very precious. It would definitely be very beneficial for Xuan Meimei's future cultivation.
She immediately went to plead with the city lord of Grand Emperor City. A few days later, Xuan Wuji and his sister left Grand Emperor City together.
On one side, Yun Sheng's Heavenly Expedition Hunting Corps was thriving. On the other side, in the Crown Prince's residence in Zhou State, it was a different scene.
"What? You said that father did not pursue the responsibility of that damned summoner?!" The sound of a vase crashing to the ground was heard. Ye Beilian was so angry that he smashed everything that could be smashed.
Empress Qi consoled him from the side, "Beilian, don't be angry. Your Imperial Father also has his own difficulties. Lian 'er, you have worked hard these few days. Go back first. "
A few days ago, Chen Lian 'er was sent back to Jade Capital. According to her, she had been separated from everyone in Later Qin and had only returned to Jade Capital after a few twists and turns.
Her face had also been treated by a famous doctor along the way.
After Empress Qi learned of this, she calmly advised Chen Lian 'er and ordered her to serve in the Crown Prince's residence.
Chen Lian 'er saw Empress Qi's appearance and knew that she was using this as an excuse to send her away. She left with a meek smile on her face.
