According to the language of the demon race, it means a city on an icy plain, an impregnable fortress, and so on.
The main purpose is to defend the sealed land, and also to provide logistical support and living conveniences for the relevant personnel stationed there.
At that moment, he vaguely sensed that there seemed to be a life force there.
With lightning speed, he quickly flew over Tieyuan City. Soon, the guards spotted him and began to shout warnings, while many crossbows and rune cannons were aimed at him.
Just then, a pleasant female voice came from the side: "Stop! This is the Regent!"
A remarkable young woman hurriedly stopped the soldiers at the city gate. Her colorful dress stood out vividly and dazzlingly in this world of ice and snow.
A light blue hair accessory adorned her hair, resembling a feather, adding a touch of girlish charm to her elegant and mature demeanor.
"Greetings, Regent!"
"We're saved!"
...
The soldiers saluted and couldn't help but cheer.
After all, Zu'an's reputation for supporting the new emperor's ascension to the throne was so great that many soldiers in the army had heard rumors about him.
"Please rise, everyone!" Zuan landed on the city wall and casually lifted everyone up as if by an invisible hand, making them even more excited.
"Princess, it's been a long time." Zu An then nodded to Kong Nanwu, who was standing to the side.
Kong Nanwu bowed and smiled, saying, "Brother Zu, you are still as dashing as ever."
Before the two could even exchange a few words, a five-colored ray of light flew over. Upon seeing Zu'an, it was first taken aback, then burst into laughter: "I thought it was a demon invasion, but I didn't expect it to be you!"
Looking at the handsome middle-aged man in front of him, Zu'an couldn't help but sigh, "The Ming King is still so elegant, it's truly captivating."
He discovered that all the beautiful girls he met had incredibly handsome fathers.
"I'm getting old, I can't compare to you in your prime." The Peacock King's smile widened. This kid is handsome and speaks well, he really likes him.
At this moment, an old man beside him also bowed to Zu An: "Greetings, Regent."
Zu An quickly helped him up, saying, "Sir, you're too kind."
This person is Kong Qing. The two met in Yunzhong County. He "took it upon himself" to show enough goodwill to the Peacock Clan, so strictly speaking, they still owe him a favor.
Kong Qing felt a warmth in his heart. Although their status and position were now completely incomparable, he was still the same as before, which was truly rare.
The Peacock King nodded slightly, thinking that this kid had a good character, unlike the other demons who were arrogant. Hmm, Wu'er was usually haughty, but she always praised him highly. Kong Qing mentioned that the two seemed to know each other in the human race, and Wu'er even gave him that precious peacock feather. It seemed that he had to think of a way to bring them together.
Hmph, my daughter was originally the Crown Princess, the new generation's empress, but this brat turned her into a widow whose husband died before she even got married. He has to take responsibility!
The only problem is that he seems to have an ambiguous relationship with the Little Demon Queen. That's fine, since the Little Demon Queen can't openly marry him anyway. The real problem is that the Qiao family's daughter seems to be engaged to him. What a hassle!
Zuan glanced at Peacock King with some oddity. From the moment they met, Peacock King had been staring at him, sometimes smiling and sometimes frowning. His gaze was quite strange.
He coughed and said, "By the way, what's the situation in the Sealed Land? Didn't they say the Little Demon Queen was coming with the Golden Crow Guards? Why haven't we seen her for so long?"
Logically speaking, this city isn't very big; if she had received the news, she should have already appeared.
Hearing the concern in his tone, Kong Nanwu smiled enigmatically. There were rumors that he and the Little Demon Queen had an affair. At first, she thought it was just a frame-up by her defeated political enemies, but now it seemed that might not be the case.
At this moment, the Peacock King's expression turned solemn. He led Zu'an to another quiet spot on the city wall before speaking, "The little demon queen has entered the sealed land!"
"What!" Zu An was greatly shocked.
At this moment, Kong Nanwu explained, "The royal court suddenly received news of an incident at the sealed land. Many people suspected that the Second Prince had a problem, so the Little Demon Queen personally summoned experts and elites from various races to come here to check the situation."
"According to our previous investigation, the Second Prince did not betray us. Rather, the cracks in the sealed land here are getting bigger and bigger, and more and more demons are overflowing. The Second Prince knows that if this continues, it will only drain the last drop of blood from the demon race. The reproductive capacity of those extraterrestrial demons is really astonishing. We simply cannot outlast them. So he led the army into the sealed land in an attempt to repair the seal from back then."
