Tianqing City, North Gate.
Phew!
The cry of an eagle came from afar.
A dark shadow swooped down from the clouds.
"alert!"
Warning sounds came from the city wall.
Soldiers stationed in various locations quickly entered combat readiness.
"A...a demonic beast!"
As the shadow approached, everyone realized that it was a giant eagle with a wingspan of over 100 meters.
A giant eagle hovered above the city wall, its golden eyes gazing down.
A terrifying pressure swept in like a tidal wave.
In an instant, the soldiers stationed on the city wall staggered and fell.
"Who are you, and why have you come here on a demon?"
The city's general stood suspended in mid-air, looking directly at the people on the eagle's back.
"Tell the ruler of this city that my young master comes from the Northern Eagle Clan."
A burly man stepped forward and said.
The Eagle Clan!
Upon hearing this name, the city's defending general's pupils constricted sharply.
Even though he was in Qingzhou, he had heard of the number one clan in the Northern Territory.
Although the relationship between the Northern Territory and the Great Zhou was not good, the high-ranking figures on both sides were not people like them who could afford to offend them, even if they entered each other's territories.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the giant eagle flapped its wings and flew away.
......
"Your Highness, why should we put up with this?"
"You go back to the North first. I'll stay here. As soon as that lecherous scoundrel is alone, I'll kill him."
Gu Li's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he spoke in a low voice.
He stood on the left side of the carriage, and could see Gulina's delicate face through the curtain.
Gulina did not frown and ignored Guli.
Of course, the reason she frowned was not because of Gu Li.
She didn't understand why the sword technique her father had taught her was useless.
My father clearly said that as long as that person sees it, he will definitely show himself.
Could it be that Li Fan and his group are so carefree that they don't even realize there's something wrong with their trip and haven't made any basic arrangements to have someone follow them?
Forget it, I'll stop thinking about it and just take it one step at a time!
The carriage was heading straight for the Tower of Ascension.
......
"What is that?!"
"An eagle...a demonic beast?"
Why are there monsters in the city?
"Notify the president immediately!"
Giant eagles circled overhead at the Sanbei Chamber of Commerce.
As the warriors stationed at the Chamber of Commerce issued a warning, a burly figure leaped down.
Thump!
A muffled thud came from the ground.
The bluestone floorboards were torn apart by the tremors, revealing the burly man who had spoken at the North Gate.
He was wearing a fur coat, and his exposed chest was covered in scars.
He looked around and said with a disdainful expression, "Where is Gulina? Tell her to come out!"
None of the stationed warriors responded; instead, they looked at the burly man with wary expressions.
The stalemate did not last long, as Lu Xing, alerted by the commotion, appeared at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce.
When the first visitor finished repeating what he had said, Lu Xing felt a sudden unease and realized something was wrong.
Among the Northern clans, only the First Clan of the North dares to be so impolite to Gulina.
The giant eagle soaring through the sky is the symbol of the first clan.
Although the Three North Chamber of Commerce has been getting closer to the Frostwolf Clan in recent years, it doesn't mean they can offend the Azure Eagle Clan.
Ultimately, the Eagle Clan is the true king of the North.
"Welcome, esteemed envoy of the Azure Eagle Clan."
I have prepared fine wine and delicacies for you. Please follow me, esteemed guest.
"Stop talking nonsense and get Gulina out here! My young master doesn't have time to listen to your nonsense!"
The burly man said coldly.
Wumucha was unimpressed by Lu Xing's respect.
The Zhou people are all bad.
The Frostwolf Clan are traitors to the North.
If this clan had not risen to power, the vast and fertile lands of the Zhou people's northern frontier would still have been a hunting ground for the northern clans.
But all of this will come to an end.
The northern tribes are about to begin their hunt for the Frostwolf Clan. Once this thorn in their side is removed, the northern tribes will naturally be able to march north.
Young Master?
Upon hearing this address, Lu Xing's pupils constricted sharply.
This title should not be used carelessly.
In the Northern clans, only the designated successor to the leadership can use this title.
The young master of the Azure Eagle Clan must be a very important figure in the Northern Territory.
He's someone you can't afford to offend!
"Respected envoy of the Azure Eagle Clan, Princess Lina is not currently at the Three Norths Merchant Guild."
You can rest for a bit; if nothing unexpected happens, she should be back within an hour!
"Stop talking nonsense and take us to him!"
Wu Mucha reached out and grabbed at Lu Xing.
"How dare you!"
Upon seeing this, the guards rushed forward.
But right there, Lu Xing hurriedly shouted, "Stop! Guard the Chamber of Commerce and wait for me to come back!"
He knew exactly how to deal with the Northern clans.
The first ironclad rule is: never be stubborn when you are not as strong as them.
Wu Mucha led Lu Xing toward the direction of the Ascending Heaven Tower, while the giant eagle soaring in the sky lowered its body and followed.
The giant eagle left a trail of destruction in its wake, and both people and animals were terrified by its overwhelming power.
......
The convoy stopped outside the Dengtianlou building.
Gulina got out of the car and went into the building alone.
She has come every day for the past eight days.
Going into the building is fine, and seeing Li Fan is also fine.
However, the prepared spiritual fruits could not be sent out, and Li Fan's attitude was one of complete non-cooperation.
Of course, she did not give up.
Taking a deep breath, Gulina walked towards the Tower of Ascension.
Just then, Zhang Jin and the other two came out of the building.
"Your Highness Lina, I'm leaving."
If you still want to marry me, come find me in Jiangzhou. I'll be waiting for you!
Long Xiaoyun looked at Gulina with a big smile.
"Alright, you idiot who never learns from your mistakes, have you forgotten that you were being chased for thousands of miles!"
Zhang Jin slapped Long Xiaoyun on the head, then stepped forward and teased, "Your Highness Lina, if you don't like Long Xiaoyun, you can consider me. Whether in terms of appearance or cultivation, I completely surpass Long Xiaoyun."
Moreover, unlike him, I have no psychological burden about marrying into the North.
I can state here that, if you agree, I can change my name to Gu Jin right now!
These words were, of course, a joke.
They had witnessed Gulina's behavior over the past few days, and even though Li Fan hadn't explicitly said so, they realized that they had been set up.
A little teasing is a small form of revenge.
"How dare you be disrespectful to His Highness! I'll beat you to death!"
Gu Li and his two companions were furious, but before they could even step forward, a long spear flew out from the building.
Wang Tianzuo stepped forward, looked at the three of them coldly, and said, "If you're asking for a favor, you have to act like one."
This is the Great Zhou Dynasty, not the Northern Border.
If you don't understand etiquette, I can teach you!
Guli glared angrily, but did not lash out.
In the northern clans, the strong are respected.
He was no match for Wang Tianzuo, so he could only hold back!
Gulina glanced at Long Xiaoyun and then walked toward the Tower of Ascension on her own.
"Lina..."
"Alright, you little brat, shut up!"
"You're all going home now, so don't cause any more trouble for your dad."
Just as Long Xiaoyun was about to continue the verbal duel, Wang Tianzuo interrupted her spellcasting with a slap.
The group, carrying their luggage, headed south to return home.
"Brother Li, we're leaving now!"
"Yes, when you get back, please give my regards to your grandfather!"
"Brother Li, why don't you come back with us?"
My grandfather has a few secret sword techniques; I'll have him teach you then.
Yang Xiaoqian looked at Li Fan with shining eyes.
"Not now!"
Li Fan shook his head and refused.
Yang Dong has kept his identity hidden for so many years because he didn't want to get involved in any trouble.
Although I may seem successful now, I am actually facing many dangers.
He didn't want to cause trouble for Yang Dong. Although the old man was a bit unreliable, he had laid a solid foundation for Yang Dong's martial arts practice.
