Zhao Yue held the rabbit-shaped candy in her hand, her expression complex.
In truth, deep down she didn't like the bustling yet complex atmosphere of Jincheng, which is why she chose to stay in Wucheng, the farthest city from Jincheng, in an attempt to find a peaceful place of her own.
If it weren't for her father's letter saying that the world situation was about to change drastically and was extremely dangerous, and that she had to return quickly, she would have planned to stay in Wucheng forever.
Jiang Yue's personality is clearly more suited to Jincheng. He not only thrives in Jincheng, but is also the most outstanding natural awakener in the Jiang family. He has been able to skillfully use his 'extreme speed' ability since childhood and is highly praised by everyone.
Jiang Yue's father, Zhao Deyang, has always hoped that his daughter could become a lively and outgoing person like her.
Zhao Yue also tried her best, but unfortunately she didn't have that innate potential and talent.
Countless days and nights of hard practice made her realize that some things cannot be achieved simply through effort.
No matter how hard I try, it seems I can never meet my father's standards.
Seeing that Jiang Yue's strength has become so formidable that he was able to travel directly from the distant Jincheng to here at an astonishing speed.
A sense of helplessness welled up in Zhao Yue's heart. After letting out a soft sigh, she silently unwrapped the rabbit candy and slowly put it into her mouth.
"So sour~"
The familiar sour taste spreads across the taste buds.
This was indeed Jincheng's specialty, Liuliu sour candy; she remembered its unique flavor vividly.
The thought of her father mobilizing all his energy and resources to fully support his apprentice left Zhao Yue with a sense of sadness, though she could understand it...
After the fourth star lord Jiang Yue quickly left.
Li Yu looked up towards the southwest, where a faint aura of a dragon vein was indeed emanating, a clear sign that a dragon vein was about to rise.
"Boom—"
A violent tremor swept across the Central Plains once again, as if the entire world was shaking under this force.
However, Li Yun could clearly sense that this tremor came from the far northwest, and was not from the same dragon vein as Yangcheng.
As the earthquake subsided, Li Yu noticed that Fu Xiyao was still nervously clutching her clothes, and smiled.
He patted Fu Xiyao's worried hand and turned around to say, "It's okay, the danger in Yangcheng is nothing."
Then Li Yu turned to the Seventh Regiment and gave the following order:
"keep going."
The Seventh Regiment set off again, heading towards Yangcheng.
Jiang Yue, who had already run far away, also clearly felt the earthquake in Zhongzhou, but her eyes were full of excitement:
"Another star deity."
Jiang Yue's lips curled up slightly as he murmured:
"Oh dear, this pool of water... it's getting muddier and muddier!"
After saying that, she vanished from the spot in an instant.
This is the fifth large-scale earthquake since the first appearance of the dragon vein.
This also means that five of the twelve dragon veins in Zhongzhou have risen, which indirectly indicates that five star lords have been appointed to reside there.
Each tremor of the dragon vein is like the pulse of the earth, announcing to the world the rise of the dragon vein.
Now, the remaining dragon veins have been fully revealed, and some have even taken shape and successfully transformed into dragons, waiting for their successors to awaken them.
Many perceptive awakened individuals can clearly sense the aura of nearby dragon veins simply by relying on their sensory abilities.
Those awakened individuals who were close enough to the dragon vein could even hear the deep roar of the dragon vein from time to time.
With multiple confirmations, the Zhongzhou government could no longer conceal the existence of the dragon vein, and more and more awakened individuals became aware of its existence.
This led to a frenzy of rumors about dragon veins spreading across the Central Plains, and the rumors grew wider and wider.
These rumors are a mix of truth and falsehood, making it difficult to distinguish between them.
The rapid spread of rumors has made most of the awakened ones aware that a dragon vein has appeared in the Central Plains, and the earthquakes of recent days are the shockwaves emitted after the dragon vein rises.
This led them to believe other rumors, including the fallacy that obtaining a dragon vein could lead to immortality.
After this earthquake, all factions realized that there were not many dragon veins left.
Now that all forces have mobilized, it is inevitable that a bloodbath will break out over the struggle for the dragon vein.
However, even if you know the location of the dragon vein and successfully stand in front of it, it doesn't mean you can obtain the dragon vein's inheritance.
Recently, rumors have been circulating in Zhongzhou that a strange celestial phenomenon has appeared in the sky above Yangcheng, with what appears to be a celestial dragon flying by. All signs indicate that the dragon vein of Yangcheng is about to rise.
Everyone wanted to try their luck.
Today, Yangcheng City Lord Li Yang made a remarkable decision.
Li Yang suddenly announced that Yangcheng would invite all forces in Zhongzhou, as well as the Awakened Ones who saw the news, to come and participate in the Auspicious Ceremony.
In order to spread the news of the invitation quickly, Li Yang even spent a lot of money to have his invitation letter published on the front page of various Zhongzhou newspapers.
When the awakened people in the cities of Zhongzhou opened their newspapers today, the headline on the front page boldly proclaimed:
[May the heavens and earth bring auspiciousness, and may we all celebrate this grand occasion.]
Gathering in Yangcheng, bringing blessings to Central China
Below the large title was an invitation personally written by Yangcheng City Lord Li Yang:
[A wondrous phenomenon has appeared in Yangcheng: auspicious energy rises to the heavens, sweet dew falls, spirit birds carry branches, and auspicious beasts tread on clouds—all signs of heaven and earth bestowing blessings upon all people!]
On this auspicious occasion, Li Yang cordially invites heroes, noble families, and virtuous cultivators from all corners of Central Plains to gather in Yang City to share in the auspiciousness and prosperity!
