The Zhuang family was a prominent clan in the Chu Kingdom. Their ancestors were great generals who helped found the kingdom, and they had even produced prominent figures with the eighth level of cultivation. However, in recent years, their fortunes had gradually declined. Nevertheless, with the glory of their ancestors still intact, they should be doing quite well, especially since Zhuang Shengqi's cultivation was unfathomable. It was a mystery why they were living in such a remote little town.
Zhuang Xiyue only had a vague memory of her childhood, and she didn't know the specifics. The city lord was also reluctant to talk about it.
It seems like everyone's stuck in this stalemate.
Zhang Xu scratched his head. No wonder those TV series can be filmed for dozens or even hundreds of episodes. Even if it's just a little bit, it would still take hundreds of episodes.
Yan Chenghuan stayed here because he wanted to see his biological father, but Lord Zhuang knew the news but refused to tell him. Now the two of them are having this argument.
"Oh dear, sister, don't worry about them. Come with me for a walk!" Zhuang Xiyue said with a smile, taking her arm in hers as she saw her gloomy face.
Behind her, Rong Lin had appeared at some point, his expression gloomy, his eyes fixed on Zhuang Xiyue as if they were poisoned.
Zhang Xu pointed at him: "Him?"
Zhuang Xiyue played with the little braid in her hand: "Hmph! I put something in his mouth, and now he's much more obedient."
"He is, after all, a prince of the Chen Kingdom. Isn't this a bit inappropriate of you?"
Zhuang Xiyue slapped Zhang Xu's head without any politeness and said, "How can you be so kind? This person was sent by the cultivation world to monitor Brother Chenghuan! He's not a good person. It's already very kind of you not to kill him."
"But he is of noble status after all. What if he seeks revenge in the future?"
"Hmph, he still wants revenge? Considering what he did to me, I'm already being very kind by not cutting him into a thousand pieces." Zhuang Xiyue's face suddenly filled with a mixture of shame and anger.
Zhang Xu was startled: "What grudge do you two have now?!"
Zhuang Xiyue suddenly snapped, "It's nothing!" and ran ahead.
Seeing her run away, Rong Lin hurriedly followed, glancing at Zhang Xu as he passed by.
Even now, as a prisoner, Rong Lin's expression remains arrogant, but he is filled with grief and helplessness when facing Zhuang Xiyue.
Zhang Xu was a little curious. How had this arrogant person managed to offend this willful young lady, and how had Zhuang Xiyue managed to stop him? How interesting!
As Zhuang Xiyue ran forward, the street ahead suddenly became lively, with crowds surging forward like a tide. Seeing this, Zhang Xu also quickened her pace and followed.
Scattered petals fell from the sky, and a grand musical performance began. A pink sedan chair flew towards Miluo City.
"Oh dear, what are the cultivators from the Hehuan Sect doing in Miluo City? Haven't we always had no dealings with them?"
"Judging from this setup, look at the four female attendants beside the sedan chair, holding yellow feather fans. They must be Dharma Protectors!"
The Hehuan Sect did appear once in the original novel. The novel said that this immortal cultivation sect was all women who cultivated the ruthless path. Their main base was in the Chu Kingdom, which was not far from here. In the original novel, they only appeared during the Talent Gathering and the siege of Yan Chenghuan. Now they have come to Miluo City.
"Quickly! Notify the city lord! The Hehuan Sect has attacked!!" Someone shouted in panic upon seeing the situation.
They were running towards the city lord's mansion.
Hearing the shouts of the people below, the empty, floating sedan chair flew out of the chair and blocked the runners' path.
"I am not here to make enemies of you. I am only here to deliver your invitations to the Talents Conference."
As he spoke, dozens of pieces of paper floated lightly towards the city lord's mansion.
The people in the city were immediately stunned.
The cultivators' conference is sending a demon city to participate! What's wrong with their cultivation?
