Ji City.
This square, square, and orderly city had been standing in the Da Ze County for many years.
It was said that it was not like this in the past. Although it was still orderly, it was not as strict as now. It was as if every detail had to be symmetrical.
However, not many people knew how it was like in the past.
The subtle changes in a city were difficult to be noticed by the people who were in the middle of it. People would slowly accept it and get used to it.
As for outsiders …
Other than when the Qixing Tower was open, there were not many outsiders who came to Ji City.
Among all the top families in Da Qi, the Tian family was the most closed off. Why? People were very clear.
Meanwhile, ever since that existence whose name everyone wanted to hide moved into Fu Bi Building, the discussions about this city and Fu Bi Building became fewer and fewer.
What was wrong with discussing?
Even if you want to die, you don't have to be crazy.
If you just want to die, you can choose a more comfortable way to die.
The head of the Tian family, Marquis Gaochang, Tian Xili, was attending the ceremony in Lin Zi. The other powerful warrior in the family, Tian Huanwen, was overseeing the situation overseas.
However, the entire Ji City continued to operate peacefully and monotonously. There were no disturbances at all.
That was because that person … hated disturbances.
Apart from political wisdom and political talent, the officials in Ji City only needed to know two things. First, it was best not to cause trouble for that person. Second, it was best not to cause trouble.
That was because that person solved problems in a very simple way. It was so simple that no one had a chance to make up for it, let alone regret it.
The weather was good today.
Because of the grand ceremony in Linzi, the weather in the entire Kingdom of Qi today would not be bad.
"His name is Tian Kaiyan, Tian Xu Kaiyan."
This was a famous saying in the history of cultivation. There were a few legendary sages who said it, but no one knew who said it. However, the Art of Changing Heavenly Phenomena became simple from then on.
Of course, "simple" was only a relative concept. However, to a powerful country like Qi, it was simple whether it was simple or not.
At this moment, there were no clouds in the sky, and the sun shone on the city.
A person of average height wearing a cloak walked over from the main road and entered the city through the open city gate. His pace was calm, neither fast nor slow.
The city guard, Tian Sifu, yawned lazily. The sleepiness of the end of summer lingered on his eyelids.
In the Great Swamp County, no one dared to find trouble with the Tian family.
And in Jicheng, the Tian Clan did not have any problems.
Thus, the job of guarding the city was truly boring.
But this yawn woke him up abruptly. He quickly adjusted his posture and stood still without looking sideways.
"Damn it, I've let my guard down," he thought uneasily.
No matter how boring it was, there were rules to defend a city.
Even City was a city that was very particular about "rules".
Regarding the rules of this city, the people had already learned about them many times and were very familiar with them. There was no need, and he did not want to be reminded again.
The man in the cloak didn't care about the mood of the guards.
He followed the procession into the city. After entering the city, he stood on the street and looked around.
People hurried along the street. Occasionally, someone saw him, but they only glanced at him curiously.
The people of Jicheng seemed to be exceptionally busy, so busy that they couldn't tolerate curiosity.
On both sides of the street were almost identical houses. The eaves, doors, windows, and all the patterns were simply mirror images. Even the signboards of each shop were of the same standard.
Only the people in the shops were different, but they were all wearing clothes of a similar style. It seemed that in Jicheng, people from all walks of life had a fixed style of dress.
This was really a strict city.
"Hey! I'm talking to you! Don't stand in the middle of the road! "
At the city gate, a guard berated.
Tian Sifu did not look sideways. Maintaining order was the duty of a guard. He was also used to this.
Looking forward from here, the entire street had a strange sense of order.
There seemed to be an invisible line in the middle of the street, dividing the crowd on the street into two halves.
The people who came and went were clearly separated.
And the man in the cloak happened to be standing on that invisible line, which was somewhat abrupt and eye-catching.
"Oh, oh, okay. I'm sorry." The man in the cloak apologized obediently.
This was a somewhat vicissitude male voice.
The apology was very sincere, but he did not really move aside. His feet seemed to be nailed, motionless, still standing in the middle of the road.
He looked around and sighed to himself, "This place is different from before."
"I say, what's wrong with you? Can't you understand when I'm talking to you properly? " The guard who chased him away was angry. He walked over with a knife and said sternly, "Do you want to die!?"
The cloaked man did not turn his head and pressed down with his hand.
The air gathered into a huge translucent palm and fell from the sky, crushing the guard on the spot!
"Ahhh!"
Screams sounded everywhere, and the hurried crowd dispersed.
The guards guarding the city immediately unsheathed their knives, and someone went to beat the drum.
And this person was still standing in the middle of the road, as if he was indifferent to all this.
"There's always someone to talk to, there's always someone to talk to."
He shook his head and said, "It's you surnamed Tian people who don't understand!"
Tian Sifu, who pulled out the standard long knife, his hands were trembling. He shouted in a mess, but his feet did not take half a step forward. Everyone could see that this cloaked man was not someone they could deal with …
He did not know why, but at this moment, outside of danger, he inexplicably thought that the guard who was killed just now was not surnamed Tian. He was surnamed Tian … Of course, his surname was not that good. Otherwise, he would not be guarding the city gate here.
However, his legs became even weaker.
The person who killed the guard was on the street that connected to the city gate. He took off his cloak and threw it to the side.
Whoosh!
The cloak, which was made of ordinary material, flew into the distance with a whistling sound. The sound suddenly became intense, and it flew straight into a shop, creating a smooth hole in the entire building!
After the cloak was taken off, his middle-aged face with stubble was revealed.
This person stood on the long street and shouted loudly, "We've been friends for many years, and it's been a long time since we last met. Liu Xiao from the Ryu clan of Fufeng is here to visit! Who's in the Tian family!? "
Liu Xiao, the only Immortal Arrival Realm master of the Ryu clan of Fufeng!
Back then, he personally led people to kill Tian Anping in Changming County. However, Tian Anping broke through in the middle of the battle and failed to succeed!
He was the enemy of the Tian family of Da Ze!
On the day that Tian Huanwen and Tian Xili were not here, in July, when Tian Anping's ten-year sentence was about to end.
He came to visit!
He asked who was in the Tian family, but he thought that he did not need to see anyone else.
His voice rumbled and covered the entire city.
Under Tian Sifu's horrified gaze, Liu Xiao jumped up and flew over the chaotic crowd. He drew a sharp arc in the air and headed straight for the Fu Bi Tower in the center of the city!
…
…
Linzi.
In the square in front of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, everyone looked solemn.
The ceremonial official held the imperial edict and announced loudly in front of the Dan Emperor, "… Today, there is a person from the Chongxuan Clan who is outstanding and fighting for the country. He will show his might at the Riverview Platform and let the world know that Da Qi is a hero … He will be bestowed with 100 vitality stones and a peerless-grade yellow-grade Daoist technique! Try your best to act according to your heart. Don't forget your ambition and always cherish your virtue. Here is the imperial edict! "
Jung Genzun, who was wearing a snow-white robe, bowed to show his gratitude. His bearing was still impeccable.
The reward was not light, but it was not heavy for Jung Genzun.
However, everyone knew that it was not like he had never won second place in the Yellow River Gathering, so there was no need for such a grand ceremony. For Zhong Xuan Zun to be able to receive this reward, it was more or less because of his victory.
But then again.
The words "outstanding" were read on the imperial edict. It was enough to show the expectations that Emperor Qi had for him.
It was a confirmation of the so-called "taking away the glory of one's peers" that had been circulating among the people.
As for the other rewards, they weren't that important.
As for this elegant white-robed noble young master, there was still a faint smile on his face. There was no arrogance or humility.
Jung Genzun, who was willing to be a supporting character, was enough to show his unparalleled confidence.
Even though he knew that today was Jiang Wang's home ground, he had no intention of avoiding the spotlight.
Even if he left early and found a random reason to go into seclusion, no one would say anything about him. After all, his performance on the Riverview Platform was obvious to all. Everyone also knew how proud he was.
However, he still participated in this ceremony as usual and walked together with Jiang Wang, who was destined to be the most dazzling person today.
He watched Jiang Wang's glory from the sidelines.
There was no need for words to express his arrogance.
There were some people who wanted to see him make a fool of himself, but their contempt was also scattered behind his fluttering white robe.
Winning first place in the Yellow River Gathering was undoubtedly a supreme honor.
However, such a title was not enough to suppress Jung Genzun.
Jiang Qingyang was indeed dazzling, so why should he avoid the spotlight?
