Between the Xiangkong and Suzaku empires, there is a strip of land that is beyond the influence of both empires, with many small kingdoms consisting of one city and one country scattered in the middle.
The so-called one city, one country means that this small kingdom has only one city, but it has subordinate territories of villages and towns. In fact, it does not mean that it is a kingdom with only one city.
These are quite common throughout the continent, so there are only a lot of princesses and princes on this continent, and they are completely worthless, ahem, that's relatively speaking.
Such a kingdom, existing in such a gap, has both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that because of the complex influence of forces, no one will take action against them, so they are always safe. At the same time, they can also stay on the neutral side and gain some benefits.
The downside is that they will always be trapped in this gap and there will be no new growth. At least in terms of territory, there will be no change for hundreds or even thousands of years.
And in the middle of it, there is an unknown small country, which is one of so many small kingdoms.
To say that she is unknown is indeed very unknown. Even most of the citizens of her own country do not know the name of their small kingdom.
They only knew that their kingdom was one of the members of the Thirteen Alliances, and everyone directly called themselves people of the Thirteen Alliances.
The Thirteen Kingdoms is an alliance organization that unites the various kingdoms so that they can pool their resources and have more ability to survive on this continent.
This alliance has a history of thousands of years. Over time, everyone got used to calling it the Thirteen Alliance, and ignored the names of the member states. In the end, even they themselves forgot themselves.
No one has forgotten what the small kingdom was called, but everyone knows what the city is called because the name is a bit special, it is called Tianjiu City!
Isn't Tianjiu just Tianjiu? Is that right?
This requires asking the person who founded this city and created this kingdom. Legend has it that he was born a little gangster and his favorite game was Tianjiu cards, so he named it this way. If no one had objected, he might have directly called this kingdom Tianjiu Kingdom.
Of course, this is just a legend. It has been so long since the incident happened, and no one knows whether it is true or not. Maybe this is just a legend!
Regardless of whether it is a legend or a fact, no one would care about such a small kingdom. Many people who come here are just passers-by and pass by in a hurry.
This time, it seems like there is another group of passers-by, passing by in a hurry...
This group of passers-by is a bit special. None of them seems to be a simple character. Although they seem a little dusty, the temperament they exude makes people feel that they are not ordinary people.
Normally, it would be rare to see one person like this here, but now there are so many of them, which makes people feel a little confused about the situation.
Of course, this temperament is just a feeling, and most people won't care about it. However, among this group of people, the men are handsome and powerful, and the women are pretty and noble. Even ordinary people can see that this group of people is extraordinary.
This group of people were none other than Ye Lanyu and the others. They had arrived here after almost a month, and they had encountered troubles of varying degrees, so it took them a little longer than normal.
Perhaps, it was also because they deliberately slowed down, as if they wanted to wait for Ye Lang to catch up, but Ye Lang never caught up!
However, they were somewhat confident in their own abilities, or perhaps they knew too well the power structure of the Xiangkong Empire, and knew that after leaving the Xiangkong Empire, they would be safe and would not be trapped.
"After passing here, we will reach the scale of the Suzaku Empire's power, and then we can basically rest assured!" Ye Chengtian looked ahead and said thoughtfully.
"Let's find a place to rest. We've been traveling for such a long time and we're all tired!" Long Anqi also had some thoughts. The closer she got to the Suzaku Empire, the more scared she became.
This kind of fear is the kind of fear that comes when you return home but dare not enter the house!
It has been so many years since she went home or met her parents and relatives. If she faces these now, she will naturally feel a little uneasy and uncomfortable.
"Oh..." Long Anqi sighed, but Ye Lanyu, who was standing next to her, also made the same movements as her. The expressions and movements of the mother and daughter were almost identical.
"...Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you? Are you thinking about your brother again?" Long Anqi understood that apart from Ye Lang, there was almost no other thing that could make Ye Lanyu like this.
"Yeah, it's been almost a month, and there's still no news. Do you think my brother has been captured?" Ye Lanyu asked worriedly. Although she believed in Ye Lang, she couldn't help but think too much. This is a girl's, no, it should be said that it is human nature.
"It's okay to capture him. I believe the Queen should ask him for more help now." Ye Yi said nonchalantly, "As long as he's okay, he must have found a way to escape. There's no doubt about that!"
"I'm not worried that he can't escape. I'm worried that Eighth Sister might go crazy and do something scary!" The Seventh Princess was very worried. She was completely unfamiliar with her Eighth Sister. She was no longer the gentle and well-behaved Eighth Sister she knew before.
"In fact, you should believe Thirteen. Even though he usually seems confused, he will definitely not be vague at critical moments. I always had a feeling that he had a backup plan before, so he threw the matter to us to deal with. It turns out that he does have a backup plan and can hold back those tens of thousands of troops by himself!" The third son of the Ye family spoke. He had a high opinion of Ye Lang, but this seemed to be true.
"Yes! Hundreds of thousands of people were held back by him alone. I don't understand what that alchemy array was and how it could be so powerful!" Ye Chengtian is still feeling the pain of the situation at that time. It is something he will never forget.
"You can ask him later. Now let's think about our own affairs. After arriving at the Suzaku Empire, how should we deal with the Suzaku people? I believe Suzaku will definitely win us over." Ye Yi waved his hand and said.
Everyone knows that wherever Ye Yi and his gang go, they will be recruited. It is not only because of their extraordinary strength, but also because of their other abilities that everyone wants.
This was probably the main reason why Zhao Yarou wanted to kill them, because she didn't want to have more enemies, which would give her a headache! !
It would be the same for anyone else. I would rather destroy them than let them become other forces and become my enemy!
