Chapter 187 Capital City
Chapter 187 Capital City
This result was actually beyond Gu Yuchuan's expectations. The enemy of the Hu family and the Wang family was actually the same person, the Marquis of Champion. The most crucial point was that the Marquis of Champion had a very bad relationship with him. After all, he had killed Ningzhi, and the other party would not let it go. Therefore, Wang Ruoxin's move was much more important. The Marquis of Champion had to die. Otherwise, it would not be a good thing for him to have a powerful and talented person as his enemy.
He raised his hand to kill the three people in front of him. After all, they were the enemy's core members, and he should kill them as much as possible. However, when his magic appeared above the City God's head, he felt an immense power, as if something bad would happen after he killed him. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the City God immediately spoke.
“Fellow Daoist, I am a righteous god appointed by the imperial court. My soul is connected to the dynasty’s fortune. If you kill me, you will naturally suffer the backlash of the imperial court’s fortune. At that time, your fate will not be good either. Even a powerful being in the Golden Core stage or even the Nascent Soul stage will not be able to withstand the backlash directly. I guarantee that I will keep what happened today to myself and will never tell anyone.”
To be honest, Gu Yuchuan definitely didn't believe it. He wasn't a three-year-old child, but there was nothing he could do. He didn't have the rank of the Great Yong Dynasty and couldn't kill gods at will. Presumably, when the previous City God died, this Marquis of Champion used his title to suppress the dynasty's fortune in order to kill him.
However, just because he couldn't kill the City God didn't mean Gu Yuchuan was powerless. On the contrary, he could still kill the two guards in front of him. These two would lose their positions in the dynasty, right? He killed them casually. Sure enough, there was no backlash. He had finally gained something.
"City God, you'd better watch yourself. Although the Marquis of Champion is powerful, his influence in the capital is nothing more than that. Although the Wang family is now extinct, their in-laws will not let go of this opportunity to strike at the Marquis of Champion. You'd better stay here and behave yourself. If you make any moves, there are plenty of methods in the capital to suppress the dynasty's backlash. I won't mind making another trip. You know what your fate will be."
The City God dared not make any move, and could only keep saying things he dared not say, hiding all his ambitions in his heart. Gu Yuchuan was too lazy to say anything, and left directly with Wang Ruoxin. Now that everything was clear, there was no need to stay in Chaoyang City. At dawn, they boarded a flying boat to the capital.
The flying boat was anchored outside the capital city and could not enter. From a great distance, he could see the magnificent capital city. It truly lived up to its reputation as the largest core territory of the human race. He could even see the sky above the capital city. Its fortune was like a dragon's, such luck was enough to withstand even a Nascent Soul cultivator. Indeed, the Heavenly Dao favored the human race more; the human race truly deserved to be called the spirit of heaven and earth.
After the airship landed, they could line up to enter the city. As they approached, the pressure of the capital city increased even more. The vermilion city walls seemed to exude endless pressure, and as they slowly drew near, they found it difficult to breathe. When it was their turn to enter the city, the mirror on the city wall emitted a golden light, and their original forms appeared in the sky above.
Instantly, several soldiers guarding the city picked up their weapons, but Gu Yuchuan threw out his token.
"Look carefully, I am a demon race contestant here to participate in the human-demon inter-race arena battle."
At this moment, a man who looked like a general walked over. He appeared to be a Golden Core cultivator. This man was Wei Wushuang, the captain of the city gate guards. After taking the token and examining it carefully, he returned it to Gu Yuchuan. With a single glance, everyone put away their weapons.
"So you are the pride of the demon race. I am truly sorry for your rudeness. Please come in. The place that my emperor has arranged for you is Anlefang in the inner city. You, take this demon general to Anlefang and make sure no one disturbs them. Please, both of you."
This made Gu Yuchuan even more curious about the capital. As soon as he entered, he could feel that his magic power was suppressed to a certain extent. This must be the luck of humanity. However, his dragon bloodline stirred, and the suppression became much less. He even felt that he might not be suppressed by the luck of humanity after becoming a dragon.
In fact, he was right. This stemmed from a secret conversation in ancient times. When the human race rose to power, the dragon race made great contributions. Therefore, although the dragon race is also a demon, it is not defined as evil spirits, but rather as auspicious. The bloodline of the dragon race will not be suppressed by the fortune of the human race. This is the benefit brought by the dragon race's early investment.
Led by the soldiers, they moved quickly forward. Along the way, he kept observing the people around him. Indeed, the people of the capital seemed to be living very well, and their spirits were high. This meant that they did not have to worry about not having enough to eat or wear every day. There were also quite a few cultivators. Many ordinary people, although they did not cultivate, still had some martial arts skills, so they were definitely healthy and strong.
This is the Holy Land of Humanity, and it is indeed impressive. At least it is more developed than the Cloud Sea Heavenly Palace of their demon race. It will take their demon race a long time to reach this level.
They finally arrived at Anlefang, a new street built for them by the human race. It was magnificent and well-built, which Gu Yuchuan liked. An official arranged for them to stay in a three-courtyard house.
"Azure Scale Demon General, this is your residence for the time being. If you need anything or are dissatisfied with anything, just tell me directly, and I will definitely take care of it for you. Don't be shy, the most important thing is that you are comfortable."
The other party's attitude was very good, and Gu Yuchuan didn't put on airs: "Thank you very much, sir. It seems to be very good for now, and I am very satisfied. If there is anything I need, I will not hesitate to ask. Now, I do have something to ask. I wonder when our main force of the demon race will arrive. I came alone, so I am not sure."
The official was a junior official in the Ministry of Rites, and this was what he was in charge of: "The main force of the demon race will arrive the day after tomorrow. I can inform you then, and we can go together to welcome the Fox Immortal Venerable."
Gu Yuchuan nodded: "Okay, I understand. Then you can go ahead and do your work, I'll just rest here."
After saying that, the official left, leaving the two of them to rest inside. Gu Yuchuan scanned the area with his magic power and divine sense many times, but found nothing that was monitoring them. However, this could be due to his low cultivation level. But most likely, the other party really hadn't placed any such things, since their Venerable One would also be coming, and it wouldn't look good if things got out of hand.
