"You must be the representative guests of the Tiger Tribe and the Fox Tribe. We have come here to welcome you under the empress' orders, and to convey Her Majesty the Empress' greetings to you."
One of them stepped forward to greet Athena and the others and surrounded them. Of course, he was preparing to escort them!
"Thank you. Please help us convey our greetings to the empress." At this moment, a slightly older member of the Fox Tribe stepped forward to respond.
It wasn't that Athena didn't want to push the responsibility back to others, but she didn't have the qualifications. In this team, Ye Lang and Athena were considered temporary guests, and even if they weren't, Athena had to stand aside in front of her seniors.
"Thank you, I'll pass it on! We have already arranged the accommodation for our esteemed guests. Please follow us! "Those people returned the greeting and prepared to bring Athena and the others to the accommodation they had prepared.
"I'm sorry, but we already have a place to stay. That's where we Beastmen gather. We'll be more used to it." The Fox Race senior refused.
The place the Fox Clan Senior was talking about was a district of Soaring Sky Imperial City. It was called the Hundred Beast District, and it was inhabited by beastmen. It was the first choice for beastmen to come here, but it was a bit lower class.
"You're welcome. We used to live there, and we're used to it. We Beastmen don't like to live in those luxurious palaces. We're more used to living there!" The fox senior still refused.
Apart from the fact that they liked that place, it was also because that place wouldn't be monitored by Xiang Kong. Moreover, Ye Lang could appear there whenever he wanted, and no one would suspect his identity.
Among the hundred beasts, there were more than a dozen people from the fox clan!
"If you insist, then we won't force you. If you have any needs here, you can come and find us at any time. We will think of a way to solve it for you!" Those people said respectfully.
They seemed to have thought about this result. Most Beastmen wouldn't accept benefits from humans. They liked to use their own abilities to solve problems.
At this moment, Xiang Kong's side treated this group of people as a normal diplomatic team, so they relaxed a lot. If they knew that Ye Lang might be among them, they definitely wouldn't let him off so easily.
"Send these guests to the Hundred Beast Area!"
Although the leaders did not send them off and had gone back to report, the soldiers still needed to escort them. This was out of etiquette, and at the same time, it was also to gain the other party's favor.
Athena and the others didn't refuse. There was no reason for them to refuse, and it wasn't a problem for them to send them off.
Just like that, Ye Lang, the most wanted criminal of the empire, entered the Soaring Sky Royal City under the escort of the empire's army. He entered the Hundred Beast District where the beastmen lived.
"Sigh, I wonder how the thirteenth young master is doing now?"
“？！”
As they approached the hundred beast area, a soldier suddenly said. This surprised everyone, especially Ye Lang and Athena.
"Shh! Do you want to die? If the Empress knows that you mentioned the Thirteenth Young Master, she will definitely punish you according to military law! "Another soldier immediately said, while the other soldiers pretended not to hear.
"I don't know what the Empress is thinking. Why did she force the Ye Clan into two sides? Most importantly, the Thirteenth Young Master even left our empire …" That soldier continued to say.
"What can she do? The late emperor and Master Ye Chengtian were very close, and the Thirteenth Young Master and the Seventh Princess were engaged. If she wants to be the Empress, she has to get rid of them.
It seemed like what the people of Soaring Sky Royal City knew was different from the truth. Although they knew that the Empress killed the late emperor and the other princes and princesses, the Ye Clan only said that they were expelled, not that they failed to kill them.
That made sense. No one would admit that they failed to kill a single person with over a hundred thousand soldiers!
"Sigh, I still miss the Thirteenth Young Master, but he is no longer a member of the empire. As long as the Empress is here, he will always be our target."
"Don't say anymore, or else things will get serious!!" Another soldier reminded.
"…" The soldiers began to remain silent.
Athena was a little surprised. She didn't expect Ye Lang to have such a high reputation here. Even after he left for so long, people were still thinking about him.
Ye Lang was just curious. Why did these people suddenly talk about him without any warning?
Ye Lang quickly understood this point, and Athena's eyes became even more misty as she looked at Ye Lang …
After entering the beast zone, the soldiers bid farewell and left. However, before they left, they stared at the beast zone in a daze for a while before leaving.
"Huh, this looks like a tribe …"
When Athena saw the situation in the Hundred Beasts Area, she immediately let out a surprised sigh. This was because she found that the buildings in the Hundred Beasts Area were all built in tribal style.
Not only the style of the buildings, but the layout of the buildings was also the same. It was like a small tribe!
Athena finally understood why the Fox Clan wanted to come here. It was because they felt like they had returned home. It made them feel very comfortable.
"My lords, we have prepared your accommodations. Please follow me!"
At this moment, a similar sentence appeared. This time, the person who spoke was from the Fox Clan. He was the one who had received them here.
"Same place?" Someone in Ye Lang's group asked. It was obvious that it was not the first time this person had been here.
"Yes!" The Fox Clan member nodded.
"Well, Jing Wen, why did you think of building such a place here?" Athena was very curious. According to the scale of the beast zone, it shouldn't have appeared in a human city.
If the beast zone was only a small area, it wouldn't be a problem. However, the beast zone was not small. It covered a huge area.
Without any benefits, such a huge area wouldn't appear in human territory. Especially in the imperial city of the Xiang Kong Empire.
"We didn't think about it before. It's because someone helped us. That's why we have the beast zone today!" The Fox Clan member replied. His eyes revealed a look of respect. It seemed that he respected the person who spoke.
"Someone? Who is it? "Athena asked.
The Fox Clan member was silent for a while. Then, he said mysteriously, "He is a taboo in this empire. However, to us, it's not a problem. He is the thirteenth young master of the Ye family, Ye Lang!"
