At the same time, he also glanced at the people on the city wall below who were on high alert, as well as the three captains on the city wall who looked no ordinary at first glance.

Their cultivation was clearly visible in Kong Ju's virtual soul's vision.

"Two for building foundation, one for refreshing spirit."

Kong Ju shared the information he saw with Shangguan Yuzhou beside him.

The middle-aged man in black is Shuang Ling, and the other two young men are both in the foundation-building stage.

Shangguan Yuzhou excitedly stuck his head out from behind the big roc, looked at the city below, and said with a smile: "Even if it's a border city, using three lifting wheels is a bit exaggerated."

"Who knows? Maybe he heard some rumors about Gujiang and wanted to prevent those witches."

"If it's to prevent witches from practicing, then three upgrade wheels are a little too few."

Kong Ju and Shangguan Yuzhou looked relaxed. They were not afraid of the heavy battle array outside the city and were chatting happily.

After Kong Ju's voice fell, the three Shenglun standing on the top of the city looked at each other.

Just now, he stopped Dapeng's attack with a shout, just to tell the people below that this Shenglun monster has an owner.

Soon, the older man in black let out a deep voice that reached the sky.

"Which region are you from, my friend? Can you come down and have a chat?"

Huangfu Wuqin saw that Kong Ju was still chatting with Shangguan Yuzhou and had no intention of responding, so she could only say to Dapeng, "Go down!"

As Dapeng slowly landed.

The three lifters were fine, but the other city guards looked nervous.

Until the big roc landed on the city wall, Kong Ju and the other two jumped off its back.

The three Shengluns saw the faces of the three people clearly.

In the end, all eyes were focused on Huangfu Wuqin.

The middle-aged man knelt down first and shouted in a serious voice, "I am the Lord of Woqiu City, Lu Chang, and I pay my respects to the princess."

The other city guards finally reacted and followed the middle-aged man in bowing.

For a moment, the sound of "welcoming the princess" shook the walls.

Kong Ju found this scene strange. In Wudong, even if you meet the leader, you don't have to kneel down to greet him.

"Is this the Tianqi Dynasty? Absolute imperial power."

Kong Ju seemed to be thinking about something, then he exchanged glances with Shangguan Yuzhou and very tactfully retreated to the sides.

Only the young general in golden armor and the young man in dragon robe did not bow down.

But he greeted me with a smile on his face.

"Qinqin, I heard from my father that you were coming back to Tianqi. I have been waiting for you in Woqiu City for a long time. I thought you must pass by here when you came from Wudong."

"As expected, I waited for you."

The young man in the dragon robe looked somewhat similar to Prince Qingluan, with thick eyebrows and a majestic demeanor, but his temperament was much more easy-going than his father.

When he saw Huangfu Wuqin, he smiled warmly.

The young general in golden armor was very heroic and walked up as well, but he did not kneel. He laughed loudly and said, "Princess Qinqin, the commander of the imperial army, Jing Yushou, has been ordered to protect you."

"Thank you for your hard work, cousin Xiangming."

"General Jing is polite."

Huangfu Wuqin's smile was somewhat forced. She seemed not good at dealing with the current situation, but her demeanor was appropriate.

After responding to the two, she raised her hand towards the people kneeling in front of her and said softly, "Stand up. Don't kneel when you see me. We in Wudong don't have so many rules."

This is why Huangfu Wuqin is unwilling to return to Tianqi. He kneels to her wherever he goes the whole day.

Or she would kneel.

In Wudong, she didn't even have to kneel when she saw her father, and she even ignored him.

"Wudong is Wudong, and you are the princess of Tianqi. There is no reason for me not to kneel to you." Bai Xiangming said as a matter of course.

He was having a lively conversation with Huangfu Wuqin.

Kong Ju also looked at the prince in front of him named Bai Xiangming. From his appearance, he knew that he was the son of Prince Qingluan. Huangfu Wuqin called him cousin, so his identity was almost certain.

Compared to the second prince, the cultivation level of this Bai Xiangming is far behind.

He looks to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, and he has just established his foundation, and his Taoist foundation is only at the Profound level.

Considering the resources of the Tianqi royal family, the prince is only of this level and can only be considered average.

He doesn't have the demeanor of his father, Prince Qingluan, at all.

"He shouldn't be a playboy. It's probably because his qualifications are limited." Kong Ju thought secretly and looked at the young general in golden armor again.

This guy is about the same age as Kong Ju, but is much stronger than Bai Xiangming. Although he is also at the initial stage of Xuan-level Taoism, his cultivation has already reached the peak of foundation building. His eyes are full of energy and he looks very heroic.

As for the city lord, he is older than Huangfu Ying and is only at the third level of Youjing. I'm afraid that this is how his life will be.

Shangguan Yuzhou was already bored, and whispered to Kong Ju: "Why don't we retreat first? These people are so useless, I don't want to deal with them."

The young general in golden armor had already noticed Kong Ju and Shangguan Yuzhou following behind Huangfu Wuqin.

When Kong Ju was looking at him, his eyes were also looking at Kong Ju and Shangguan Yuzhou with burning eyes.

Shangguan Yuzhou's eyes were as sharp as torches, and upon closer inspection, there seemed to be a sword light flowing out of his pupils, and his temperament was extremely sharp.

You can tell at first glance that he is an expert in kendo.

Then he looked at Kong Ju again, and he was shocked to find that he could not see through the cultivation level of that cold-tempered man. He could hardly even sense his breath, which was as deep and dark as an ancient cold pond.

"You two must be the first disciple of Sect Leader Huangfu and the closed disciple of the Master of Dongxian Hall, Kong Ju and Shangguan Yuzhou." The golden-armored young general Jing Yushou looked at the two of them and heard a sonorous and powerful voice.

"Thank you, General!" Kong Ju bowed with a smile, acknowledging his identity.

Shangguan Yuzhou nodded slightly, not in high spirits.

As Jing Yushou spoke, he had already walked past Huangfu Wuqin and came in front of Kong Ju and the other man. He looked them over and over again and then nodded.

This is obviously a recognition of their abilities.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Then he looked at the white-feathered roc behind him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The Tianqi royal family also has many demon beasts in the Shenglun realm, but none of them has the ferocity of the ferocious bird in front of him. The evil spirit on its body is heavier than that of him, a battle-hardened commander of the imperial guards.

"What a vicious bird!"

The two sides exchanged pleasantries.

Dapeng transformed into the size of a bird and stood on Kong Ji's shoulder.

Bai Xiangming and the other two walked down the city wall under the awestruck gazes of the numerous soldiers defending the city.

The group walked all the way to the center of Woqiu City, in front of a formation.

"Princess, Crown Prince, and General Jing, my subordinates have already prepared a banquet. Why don't you enjoy the welcoming banquet before leaving?" Lu Changbin, the Lord of Woqiu City, still wanted to keep them.

Bai Xiangming declined politely, "My father and aunt are still waiting for Qinqin to return, so we won't stay. The Japanese prince will come to bother the city lord later."

Bai Xiangming responded appropriately, without showing any arrogance because of his status.

Shangguan Yuzhou was really fed up with the empty talk in the officialdom. He looked around and saw the imperial guards wearing golden armor. Then he showed some interest. He whispered to Kong Ju, "These golden-armored soldiers are all at the ninth level of the cultivation realm. They are all inner disciples in our Cangwu sect. Adding a prince and a general to the army, just to pick up Junior Sister Huangfu? This is a bit exaggerated."

"If we only talk about Junior Sister Huangfu's status in the royal family, this is a bit of a big deal. But don't forget that she has another status in Wudong." Kong Ju understood clearly and whispered to Shangguan Yuzhou:

"She is the only daughter of the leader of the largest sect in Wudong."

"It's equivalent to the crown prince of the Tianqi Dynasty."

As he spoke, Kong Ju's eyes swept over Bai Xiangming and Jing Yushou, with a hint of mockery on his face.

"This Bai Xiangming represents Prince Qingluan, and standing behind Prince Qingluan is the Second Prince."

"I don't know who Jing Yushou represents."

"Looking at these two people, they seem to be friendly on the surface, but in fact they are both vying to chat with Junior Sister Huangfu. They are probably enemies."

"The water in Tianqi Dynasty is very deep. When we first arrived, the water was already up to our knees."

Shangguan Yuzhou understood immediately after hearing Kong Ju's words.

It is obvious that both sides are vying to play the emotional card with Huangfu Wuqin, and their target is actually the Cangwu faction behind her.

There was disdain in Shangguan Yuzhou's eyes. A cultivator should value the Tao, and everything else is nothing more than external things.

Sword cultivators place more emphasis on self-cultivation. He is the most annoyed by this and asked Kong Ju: "What should we do then? Should we go to the Imperial City with Junior Sister Huangfu? I can't stand the foul atmosphere of this place."

"Anyone who wants to go to the imperial city, once they come to Tianqi, must pay a visit to the master's wife." Kong Ju rubbed his brows. How could he not be annoyed?

However, as Huangfu Ying's apprentice, it would be unacceptable not to meet his master's wife.

He could only patiently comfort Shangguan Yuzhou: "After meeting Master's wife, let's find an excuse to leave first and wait until the day when Chaodi Ancient City is opened."

Before leaving, Lei Zun once said that he would not let him interfere in the affairs of the Tianqi Dynasty and Gujiang.

It also meant to keep him at a distance from the Tianqi Dynasty.

The fight for succession in the royal family was particularly brutal, with brothers killing each other, and their Cangwu faction got involved in the mess.

The purpose of the three of them coming to the Tianqi Dynasty this time was very clear, which was to visit the Chaodi Ancient City. They could ignore anything else.

Bai Xiangming finally finished talking with the city lord. Under the respectful gaze of the Woqiu City lord, Bai Xiangming winked at the followers behind him.

The latter immediately walked towards the formation in front of him and poured out a large number of spirit crystals from his storage bag into the eye groove of the formation.

Kong Ju made a rough calculation and found that there were at least tens of thousands of spirit crystals.

Even though it wasn't his money, it still made him feel sad.

Huangfu Wuqin had a tired look in his eyes. He walked to Kong Ju's side, noticed his gaze, and explained softly, "This is a teleportation array. It can teleport tens of thousands of miles in a certain direction. It just has some useless spirit crystals."

"Although the Tianqi Dynasty is wealthy, it is generally not necessary."

"He is indeed wealthy and powerful." Kong Ju agreed deeply.
