Ever since the Alchemist Conference, Purple Lake City had been completely abandoned. It had been two years.
At that time, to protect themselves from the revenge of the Hachiko clan and the other sects, Beauty Yang also wanted to contribute to the Ice Fire Union. Hence, she had no choice but to give up Purple Lake City. Now that the Hachiko clan had retreated from the continent, the thirty-one sects did not dare to attack the Ice Fire Union. If she could move the headquarters to Purple Lake City and take it back, it would be the best thing.
After not returning to Purple Lake City for two years, no one knew what had become of the city. No one knew if it had been destroyed by the world's chaos or if it had been reduced to ruins.
However, to be able to return to Purple Lake City was the best choice for Beauty Yang. Purple Lake City was her home and also the place where she first met Lu An. It was filled with memories of her and Lu An, as well as the memories of her family. Why wouldn't she want to go back?
Looking at Beauty Yang's expression, Lu An took a deep breath and said seriously, "Then send someone to investigate and move the headquarters to Purple Lake City!"

Two days later.
Eight Ancient Continent, Purple Lake City.
Ever since the Lu clan left Purple Lake City, Purple Lake City had fallen into chaos, even though Beauty Yang had already decided on the successor of the city lord. Without a strong backing, power could easily change hands. In order to fight for Purple Lake City, many battles had broken out.
However, what was surprising was that all the battles were fought outside Purple Lake City. None of the battles took place inside the city. Maybe it was to protect the buildings here, or maybe it was for other reasons, but no matter what, Purple Lake City itself was not destroyed by the power struggle.
As for the world's chaos, it did not affect Purple Lake City at all.
Purple Lake City was surrounded by countless mountains. It would take at least a month for an ordinary person to walk to the nearest country. Moreover, the four small countries around Purple Lake City were affected by the world's chaos. They had countless casualties and did not have the time to think about Purple Lake City.
Purple Lake City was now managed by a city lord. Because of the world's chaos, the power struggle had become less frequent. Everyone wanted to protect themselves. As long as they could survive, it was enough.
On this day, in the morning.
Dawn had just broken, and the leaves outside Purple Lake City were covered in dew. The green grass was covered with a thin layer of water vapor, and the dense fog made the surrounding forest seem very quiet.
There were many tall buildings in Purple Lake City, or rather, they could no longer be described as ordinary 'tall buildings'. The buildings here were even taller than the ones in other cities. It was early in the morning, but there were already many people on the streets of Purple Lake City. Perhaps it was because they were deep in the mountains and in the fog, but the people here seemed to be in good spirits, completely different from the solemn, dark buildings around them.
At this moment, the City Lord of Purple Lake City had already woken up and was preparing for work. In fact, the Purple Lake City's City Lord Mansion was very big. Many tall buildings were located in the depths of the city, which was closer to the Purple Lake at the back. No one dared to go to the tall buildings in this area, not even the current City Lord.
This area of tall buildings was originally the residence of the Purple Lake City's City Lord, Yang Meiren. It was equivalent to the back garden of the palace and was her private territory. The Lu Clan had suddenly disappeared and not been wiped out. They might come back to take a look at any time. Trespassing on private property could very well incur the wrath of the other party and bring about a fatal disaster.
Right at this moment, something strange happened!
Purple light.
The purple light shone down from the sky, enveloping the entire Purple Lake City and the surrounding forests. The purple light was very dazzling, and it was impossible not to notice it.
The sudden appearance of the purple light immediately shocked everyone in the city. The pedestrians on the streets stopped and tried their best to look up at the sky while shielding their eyes. The people who were still in the pavilion ran out one after another and woke up everyone who was still sleeping.
Very soon, everyone in the city saw the purple light. Their entire bodies were enveloped by the purple light. Under the purple light, they felt pressure from their souls, and … a familiar feeling.
"City Lord …" In the City Lord Mansion, a servant ran into the courtyard in a panic to report, but found that the City Lord was already standing in the middle of the courtyard, looking up at everything in the sky.
The purple light lasted for twenty breaths before it finally changed.
The purple light in the sky slowly dimmed, from being dazzling to being able to open one's eyes. In the end, it disappeared completely, and the original color of the sky was restored.
Everyone in the city stood on the streets and pavilions and looked up at the sky. At this moment, they finally saw the figure in the sky.
"Hiss!!!"
Everyone in the city sucked in a breath of air!
In the sky, there were at least a hundred people standing there, and there was a huge purple teleportation array above them. Even more people were flying out from it, all of them standing in the sky!
Being able to fly meant that they were at least Level 6 Heavenly Masters!
More than a hundred Level 6 Heavenly Masters? This was a huge formation that Purple Lake City had never seen before!
The people in the sky continued to descend, and finally, they arrived among the many tall buildings, allowing the surrounding people to see them clearly!
"It's the City Lord!!!"
Suddenly, someone exclaimed, and in such a quiet environment, it spread far and wide!
"It's City Lord Yang! It's really City Lord Yang!! "Immediately, another voice sounded, shouting excitedly," City Lord Yang is back!! "
The person who spoke was a Level 5 Heavenly Master, and immediately, the loud voice spread far and wide in Purple Lake City! One spread to ten, ten spread to a hundred, and soon, everyone in Purple Lake City knew about it!
City Lord Yang was back, and the natives here were more excited and excited than anyone else!
This Purple Lake City was personally built by City Lord Yang, and in the past two years, it had changed hands many times, but no matter what, it was different from the original Purple Lake City! Every City Lord would set a different policy, and the original Purple Lake City had already gone further and further away.
In the past two years, many of the original residents had left, and those who stayed behind were also hesitating. Now that City Lord Yang was back, Purple Lake City could return to how it was before!
Finally, in the midst of the cheers of the entire city, the teleportation array in the sky was completely closed. At this moment, there were more than five hundred people standing in the sky, and this was only a portion of the Ice Fire Union. More people were waiting for orders in the surrounding territories and on the Ice Fire Island.
In the Lu Clan, Lu An and the seven women stood in the sky, looking down at the Purple Lake City below, and a nostalgic feeling appeared in everyone's heart.
Before the battle of Purple Lake City, everyone lived here. Now that they thought about it, that was the happiest and most carefree time for everyone.
Life in the ocean was too tiring and busy, and no one thought that they would come back one day. Now that they were back, they couldn't help but miss it.
Lu An was the same. Even though he had been to a few sects, the uniqueness and beauty of Purple Lake City was something that even sects didn't have. It was probably one of a kind in the entire Eight Ancient Continents.
Lu An turned to look at Beauty Yang, and the six women did the same. This place was built by Beauty Yang, so she should be the one to announce her return.
After returning to her own territory, Beauty Yang naturally wouldn't be polite. She walked out from the crowd and looked at the City Lord Mansion. Her voice was very cold as she said, "Everyone in the City Lord Mansion, leave immediately, or you will be killed without mercy!"
Even though it was the most ordinary voice, it was as cold as an iceberg. Everyone who heard it shivered as if a cold wind had blown past them, but the smile on their faces became even more obvious!
The familiar feeling was back!
Within the City Lord's Mansion, everyone immediately retreated and fled, including the City Lord. He didn't have the strength to fight against so many powerful Heavenly Masters. He was lucky that the other party was willing to let him go, so he quickly slipped away.
After everyone in the City Lord Mansion left, the people of the Lu Clan flew towards the City Lord Mansion. The others in the sky followed closely behind, forming a long line in the sky.
Nothing in the City Lord Mansion had changed, and the people of the Lu Clan were very familiar with it. Soon, everyone arrived at the square outside the City Lord Mansion. However, Beauty Yang frowned slightly, obviously not wanting to go in.
"I want to rebuild this place," Beauty Yang said softly to Lu An.
Lu An was stunned. He knew that Beauty Yang was obsessed with cleanliness in some aspects. She wouldn't like to use places that had been used by others before. Moreover, although the tall buildings here weren't destroyed, their strength was no longer suitable for them, and they wouldn't be able to withstand the destruction of the war in the future. They could use this opportunity to rebuild and strengthen the buildings here.
"Okay," Lu An nodded and said with a smile, "I'll listen to you."
