A Rather Forceful Rule
Ye Zichen was completely unaware of the Xiao Family's attention. Even if he did, he wouldn't care. After all, he'd done all this to attract the attention of the Divine Mountains.
He'd used Sea Condensing Pills as bait to lure the families of the Divine Mountains into sending people down. Ye Zichen was starting to get bored.
Although Ice Blue City was a gathering place for information, there was still little news about the Yao Realm and the River Styx. Ye Zichen decided he might as well leave.
Half a month later, in Blue Sky City on the Southern Divine Mountain.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this was the most prosperous city in the Lower Lands. Ice Blue City's prosperity was due to the existence of the Skyspan Trading Company.
Blue Sky City's prosperity had a lot to do with its geographical location.
Blue Sky City bordered the River Styx. Beyond the River Styx were yao territory, while the Demon Realm bordered it.
You could say that Blue Sky City was the hub of the Yao, God, and Demon Realms. It was easy to spot demons and yao, and the Parliament of Stars' headquarters was located here as well.
"Woah, this city looks much bigger than Ice Blue City!"
Ye Zichen couldn't help but sigh. Due to the Parliament of Stars' relationship with Upheaval, and Wei Jie being Upheaval's gang leader, the Parliament of Stars was monitoring his every move.
This city was also the Parliament of Stars' headquarters. Although he'd wanted to accompany Ye Zichen, due to his status, he'd given up.
As a newcomer, Ye Zichen didn't have Jiao Qi and Meng Huairong protect him. Instead, he had them stay within the Yao-Sealing Pagoda.
A female skyyao followed him. Her true form was a snow rabbit, but she was only a mid-stage yao king.
Although this level of strength was already quite strong in the Lower Lands, it wasn't particularly eye-catching. Ye Zichen had remained on the Northern Divine Mountain ever since arriving in the God Realm. This was his first time traveling so far, so it was best to be careful.
It would be best if he didn't draw too much attention. That way, he'd be able to gather intelligence.
As for Meng Huairong, who'd been clamoring about tagging along, Ye Zichen directly rejected her.
Perhaps she really was familiar with Ye Zichen. At first, she was worried about their relationship as master and servant, so her behavior was somewhat restrained.
But after half a year, she dared roll her eyes at Ye Zichen.
Just like that, Ye Zichen decided to lock her up for half a month!
"Xiao Xue, you should be very familiar with this place."
Ye Zichen looked at the rows upon rows of buildings and the hawkers' shouts. He couldn't help but smile, then look at the Snow Rabbit Yao King.
After staying in the God Realm for so long, and thanks to the Yao-Sealing Pagoda's existence, Ye Zichen more or less understood the geography of the God Realm and Yao Realm.
The Snow Rabbit Clan was one of the weaker clans in the Demon Clan, and they lived close to the God Clan.
However, due to their docile temperament, their relationship with the Protoss was actually quite harmonious. Normally, when people of the God Race went to trade, they would like to visit their Snow Rabbit Race.
This Snow Rabbit Demon Monarch was especially adorable. She looked like a pretty daughter from a humble family. Since her true form was that of a snow rabbit, her temperament was extremely docile. This was also why Ye Zichen had chosen her out of all the other heavenly yao in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda.
"Hmm, it's alright. My tribe lives on the other side of the Netherworld River, but I've never been here before. I've only heard about it from my tribe members, so I'm not really familiar with it."
Just like its appearance, the Snow Rabbit Demon King's voice was also soft and comforting to listen to.
"How long have you been in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda?" asked Ye Zichen.
"A long time, I guess. I'm one of the first yao to enter the Yao-Sealing Pagoda. However, my talent is limited, so I'm still only a yao king. But if I return to my clan, I'll be considered an expert. "
The Snow Rabbit smiled sweetly. Her smile seemed capable of melting anyone who saw it.
"You must be homesick, right? How about I let you go and let you return to your clan?"
Ye Zichen didn't even know why he'd said something like that. Perhaps her smile really had melted his heart. In any case, he suddenly had the urge to let her go.
To his surprise, the Snow Rabbit shook her head with a smile, then clasped her hands behind her back and followed Ye Zichen.
"Even if I go back now, my relatives from that era might be long gone. Comparatively, I get along better with my companions in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda. It's not just me; perhaps everyone else in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda feels the same way. We've all been in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda for tens of thousands of years. Although we're not family, we're closer than family. "
"That's true."
Ye Zichen didn't comment on that. Since the Snow Rabbit didn't want to leave, he wouldn't force her. He smiled and strolled along the city's streets, enjoying its charm. At that moment …..
"Are you crazy? Can you stop following me? "
Not far ahead of Ye Zichen was a girl in a white dress. She looked to be around fourteen or fifteen years old. Her hands were on her hips, her eyebrows were furrowed, and her hair was braided into dozens of braids. She looked especially shrewish.
Her eyes widened as she looked at the young man in front of her. Behind the young man were a few attendants.
"They're all yao."
The Snow Rabbit batted her eyes and laughed. Ye Zichen arched his brows. He sensed that the attendants were all immortal kings, and that the youth was an early-stage immortal king.
"Mother, you and I are both divine beasts, and we're both canine divine beasts. My clan isn't weak in the yao race, so why are you so dismissive of my love? Yao respect the strong. You're just a heavenly yao, and I'm a yao king. What right do you have to refuse me? "
The youth tried his best to console her, but Ye Zichen understood. The youth was confessing his love to the girl, but the girl was dismissive.
However, feelings were mutual. Why did it have to do with strength?
Ye Zichen glanced at the Snow Rabbit, who explained softly, "That's actually how we yao are. We respect the strong. If you like someone, and you're stronger than them, you can just kidnap them. This custom was left behind by the Yao Ancestor of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan. However, because of this custom, the Yao Ancestor fell for it and became the Five Elements Great Emperor's wife. "
"There's such a thing?"
Ye Zichen had heard of the story of the Five Elements Great Emperor and the Nine-tailed Fox Clan. However, he never would have guessed that the yao had this sort of custom. If you liked someone, you could just kidnap them, as long as they were stronger than you?
Wow!
What a domineering custom!
However, at that moment, the girl laughed disdainfully. She put her hands on her hips and curled her lips.
"I don't like you. You're nothing but a high-grade divine beast. Do you know who I am? I'm a Heaven Devouring Dog, a primordial divine beast! Why don't you take a good look at yourself first? Never mind you, even if your father came to confess his love to me, I wouldn't agree to be your mother! "
