Bei Yutang looked at the magnificent castle standing at the foot of the towering snow-capped mountains. The closer they got, the more they could feel the grandeur of the castle.
When they were almost there, Ah Hua brought it down.
The place where they landed was still a long distance from the castle, and they had to walk this distance.
Bei Yutang had a hard time walking along the way. Not only was the mountain road difficult to walk on, but more importantly, her body was not strong enough to support her. Ah Hua naturally saw her predicament, but she just stood by and watched coldly without helping.
"You're walking really slowly."
Bei Yutang ignored her. She rested when she needed to rest and walked slowly when she needed to walk slowly.
Ah Hua didn't dare to leave it behind, after all, Bei Yutang was the one she chose.
When they arrived at the city gate, two men with solemn faces appeared silently in front of the empty gate. These men had handsome faces, but their skin was too pale.
When Ah Hua saw the two of them, her face was no longer arrogant. She smiled and took out a token from her arms. After the two guards saw the token, the door behind them slowly opened.
Ah Hua led Bei Yutang into the castle. The first thing they saw was a street about tens of meters wide. The ground was paved with white marble. There were gorgeous houses around it. It was unusually deserted. Only one person was seen.
Ah Hua remained silent throughout the journey, and Bei Yutang was not one for talking too much. The two of them walked silently into the gate of a magnificent palace. As before, the guards hidden in the shadows checked Ah Hua's warrant before letting them in.
Anyone passing through an important city gate would be subject to inspection. She could not see a single person in the castle, and while it looked deserted, it was actually heavily guarded, evident from the layers of inspection.
The higher they went in the castle, the more intense the inspections became, indicating that the higher up the city, the higher the status of the people living there. However, they didn't need to go to the very top, because they didn't have the qualifications to go there either.
After reaching the third floor, the two walked to a bronze door. The guard at the door saw Ah Hua's handwritten order and let them in.
The bronze door slowly opened. Before Bei Yutang entered, Ah Hua said only one thing to her, "If you're smart, hold on to the Duke's legs tightly."
As soon as I entered the hall, the door behind me slowly closed.
The huge palace is magnificent and golden, with rows of fist-sized luminous pearls inlaid on the stone pillars. Looking around, it is so huge. There are dozens of stone pillars in the whole palace, and each pillar is inlaid with hundreds of luminous pearls.
In total, this palace contains thousands of night-shining pearls. The soft light emitted by these pearls illuminates the entire palace, giving it a dreamlike beauty.
Bei Yutang was initially shocked by this grand gesture, but then she noticed six other young women in the hall. When Bei Yutang appeared, they all turned their gazes towards her.
Bei Yutang walked forward, nodded slightly to a few people, and sat aside.
"Where are you from?" a baby-faced woman asked.
"Chato."
"Xiadu?" The baby-faced girl seemed to have never heard of it. She couldn't help but look at the other women, "Have you ever heard of Xiadu?"
Apparently, none of the women had ever heard of it. However, one woman muttered, "I think he's from another world. Look at his attire; it's different from ours."
