In 2035, Spirit Realms and Spirit Gates appeared worldwide, spiritual energy gradually revived, and powerful figures emerged from all factions.
High school student Guo Feng awakened the '...
Yan Shan Xinghe then smiled and invited Guo Feng to pass directly through the barrier on the city wall and enter Yan Shan City.
As soon as Guo Feng entered, he was greeted by a bustling and vibrant atmosphere.
This is different from the wilderness we encountered on our way from the Lieyang Mountain Range.
Compared to Yanshan City, the Lieyang Clan is indeed not in the same league at all.
Calling it a remote and impoverished area is absolutely accurate.
Guo Feng and Yan Shan Xinghe flew over a hundred kilometers before arriving at the inner city at its very center.
This inner city alone is ten times larger than the Forbidden City in Beijing, the capital of China.
Of course, the architectural styles are very different.
The layouts are also different.
They arrived at a grand hall, where Yan Shan Xinghe ordered his men to bring out fine wine and delicacies.
They also summoned a band and dancers to entertain them.
Guo Feng discovered that the delicacies they ate here were very similar to those of Chinese civilization.
It is also divided into hot dishes, cold dishes, pastries, and snacks.
It even has a spicy and savory flavor.
The plating is also very particular.
It emphasizes a luxurious and grand style.
Guo Feng discovered that many dishes used parts of demonic beasts.
It contains intense spiritual energy.
And that wine, like the wine in China, is brewed with baijiu (Chinese white liquor).
Yan Shan Xinghe also summoned some of his other sons, daughters, and servants to accompany him.
It was also learned that Yan Shan Xinghe had eighteen sons and five daughters.
Yan Shan Chi is merely a favored young city lord, whose strength is only at a mid-to-high level.
Guo Feng chatted with them and found that they were trying to trick him into revealing information from time to time.
He didn't care, and only talked about the living environment in ancient dramas that he was familiar with.
The other party's response was ambiguous.
The banquet ended in the afternoon.
Yan Shan Xinghe invited Guo Feng to the backyard of the palace, where the two were alone together.
He looked at Guo Feng and said, "Young Master Guo, you are probably not from Guo Wang City, and you may not even be a member of the Guo clan. Who exactly are you?"
"Oh."
Guo Feng chuckled, "I have never said that I am from Guo Wangcheng, nor am I a member of the Guo clan as you claim."
He paused for a moment, then asked, "Can you guess where I'm from?"
"Two places."
Yan Shan Xinghe's eyes narrowed. "The Land of Forgotten Sins, or the Ancient Clan."
"However, the Land of Sin has not been opened for ten thousand years, and your strength does not seem to be that of the Land of Sin."
He stared at Guo Feng. "You must come from an ancient clan that has never been involved in worldly affairs!"
"So what if it is? So what if it isn't?"
Guo Feng waved his hand, "The main reason I travel is to broaden my horizons. Actually, it's mainly because life at home is too boring."
"Secondly, I've also heard that the Empress is looking for a husband. If she's a beauty, I'd like to play with her!"
He laughed and said, "Do you think I'm qualified?"
"Just playing around?!"
Yan Shan Xinghe raised an eyebrow, becoming even more puzzled.
People from the Guo clan certainly wouldn't dare say such a thing.
Guo Feng must be from an ancient clan!
He smiled. "But you don't have any identity!"
"I don't necessarily need any status."
Guo Feng looked arrogant.
"Alright."
Yan Shan Xinghe actually had an idea, but it was too early to say it since they were meeting for the first time.
"Then I won't say any more."
He clapped his hands, "Meiniang, come here!"
After he finished speaking, one of his pretty little daughters came over, and he instructed her, "Young Master Guo said he was going to the trading post to deliver some things. You will accompany him for me and make sure to take good care of him."
"clear!"
Yan Shanmei smiled sweetly, then led Guo Feng away.
As soon as they left, Yan Shan Xinghe frowned and said, "This person's origins are unknown; he is probably not from an ancient clan. Lu Ming, go and investigate the entrance to the Land of Forgotten Sins."
"yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from afar.
Then, it disappeared into the distance.
Yan Shan Xinghe muttered to himself, "Since you want to play around with the Empress, then I'll give you a hand. Heh, you're only a teenager and you've already reached the eighth rank of cultivation. You were able to severely injure General Luhe with a single strike. Interesting!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand again, "Jiukong, go to Guo Wangcheng and invite Second Master Guo over."
"yes!"
Another voice came from afar.
