Chapter 112 – Husband! (1/2)
Yang Ye was shocked when he walked into the Shang Dynasty Ruins that were underground. It was an extremely enormous city wall that lay before his eyes. The wall was over 300m tall, and as for its breadth, Yang Ye was utterly unable to discern it. In any case, the ruins of this ancient city were at least more than 10 times larger than Southpeace City!
Even though it was underground, the illumination here was extremely good. Of course, it wasn’t sunlight. It was silver light that seemed like moonlight, and it was emanated from countless strange rocks that seemed like Moonlight Stones.
The surface of the wall was densely covered in a dense expanse of incomplete and mysterious talismans. Even though these talismans had lost their effects, their density and form still shocked Yang Ye slightly. Because these talismans were a Talisman Formation, a Talisman Formation that enveloped the entire city. So, just thinking about it was shocking! Not to mention that he was looking at it with his very own eyes.
“As expected of the Imperial Capital of the previous dynasty. Even if it’s in comparison to the Imperial Capital of my Grand Qin Empire, it still isn’t much inferior!” The woman sighed with emotion while standing outside the city.
Yang Ye returned to his senses when he heard this, and his gaze had moved from the talismans on the city wall to the entrance of the city that didn’t have a door any longer. He said, “Let’s go in!”
Even though he wanted to carefully observe the Shang Dynasty’s Imperial Capital, he hadn’t forgotten that two Spirit Realm experts were chasing after him from behind.
The woman nodded, and then she hurriedly followed up to him.
At ground level, Man s.h.i.+ and the middle aged man who wore golden armor stood in confrontation at both sides of the entrance. At this moment, both of their expressions were extremely unsightly. With their realms of cultivation, it would have originally been extremely easy for them to catch up to Mortal Realm and King Realm Profounder. However, both of them weren’t able to catch up in the end, and they could only watch as the people they wanted to pursue entered the Shang Dynasty Ruins!
Of course, if they didn’t have the Nether Wolf King to travel on, then Yang Ye and the woman would have definitely been caught, and this would be the case even if they utilized Strider Talismans. However, with the a.s.sistance of the Nether Wolf King, their speed wasn’t something that any ordinary person could catch up to.
The Nether Wolf King was inferior in strength and offensive ability to the Flameroar Lion Clan, but it absolutely surpa.s.sed the Flameroar Lion Clan in terms of speed. Coupled with the fact that Yang Ye and the woman had made the first move, so the middle aged man and Man s.h.i.+ were unable to catch up to them.
As he gazed at the entrance to the ruins, the middle aged man was silent for a short moment before he turned around to look at his subordinates, and then he said in a low voice. “Those that have attained the King Realm step forward!”
All of these Palace Guards had been drafted at the last minute, and even he who was the leader had been drafted at the last minute, so he was utterly unfamiliar with these subordinates of his.
When they heard the middle aged man, five cavalries immediately stepped forward on their Windbreaker Horses.
The middle aged man glanced at the five of them before he said, “All five of you follow me down while the others stand on guard here and follow the orders of Vice Commander Xu. Besides that, send a person back to the empire to notify his Majesty about everything that occurred here.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle aged man glanced at Man s.h.i.+ before he led the five of them into the entrance of the ruins.
Even though it was extremely dangerous down there, he had to go down. Because it was fine if the Princess died, but if she’d eloped with someone, then there would truly only be death that awaited him when he returned. Because the Imperial Family cared about its face the most!
The middle aged man had led his subordinates down there, so Man s.h.i.+ stopped hesitating as well. He turned around and made a few sounds to the pride of lions, and then he entered the ruins as well. Presently, he didn’t care about the woman any longer, and he cared about the mysterious young man instead. It was fine if the young man was a Darkbeast that had taken human form, but if the young man wasn’t, then the matter would be mysterious and terrifying.
Because if humans had found a method to subdue Darkbeasts, then it would undoubtedly be an enormous calamity to the Darkbeasts!
......
On the streets within the city, Yang Ye and the woman ceaselessly sized up the surroundings with curious expressions. It wasn’t difficult to discern how flouris.h.i.+ng the Shang Dynasty was just by looking at the houses in the surroundings. Moreover, Yang Ye was most curious about why this lone underground city wasn’t cold and deserted, and it was slightly bustling instead.
Yes, not only were the streets not cold and deserted as he’s imagined, numerous people were constantly moving up and down on it. Of course, the number of people here was much fewer when compared to the number of people in the cities above ground.
Yang Ye was even more surprised that practically all of these people were First Heaven Realm Profounders, and he hadn’t seen a single Profounder below the First Heaven Realm. So, in other words, he was slightly special for being a Profounder at the Mortal Realm.
