278: Wu Dynasty

"Master Lin! Master Lin!!! Wait for me!"

Cheng Dezhu ran wildly behind, and soon caught up to Lin Ye.

He considered his performance quite good, and he had even chopped off the heads of those people; his posture had been so dashing!

He even took the initiative to ask his Master Lin if he wanted a bite!

As a result, Lin Ye turned and left.

What was wrong? Was he unsatisfied with the ingredients? Or perhaps...

Forget it. They had already arrived in the Central State; he would likely encounter that group from the Academy soon. Wouldn't it be better to let Master Lin choose then? One had to know, there was still a Senior Sister in the Academy who was often in seclusion!

It was said that the woman was stunningly beautiful, so Master Lin would surely be satisfied, right?

Cheng Dezhu wore a look of confidence!

This time, Master Lin allowing him to accompany him on this trip represented trust!

With such great trust, if he didn't repay it, he would simply be a beast! No, after Master Lin finished his business, he must go and get this matter done!

Cheng Dezhu secretly swore in his heart.

Little did he know, at this moment, Lin Ye looked helpless.

It seemed that Cheng Dezhu was too flighty; couldn't he be like himself, filled with upright Qi?

Always chopping off people's heads at every turn.

Sigh...

He also liked to cause trouble. He didn't know if bringing him along was the right or wrong decision.

The two continued on their way and soon arrived at a place where flying boats were rented. Various flying boats were docked there; as long as one provided Spirit Stones, they could go anywhere.

With Cheng Dezhu here, there was naturally no need for Lin Ye to handle it.

After paying the Spirit Stones, Cheng Dezhu brought Lin Ye onto a flying boat. Accompanied by the surge of spiritual power, the flying boat soared into the sky, turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the horizon.

Meanwhile.

Inside the City Lord's Mansion of Ming Prefecture City.

A tall and mighty Middle-aged Man was kneeling on the ground.

In front of him was a woman who could bewitch the world. Her face was like a hibiscus, her eyebrows like willow leaves, and her eyes, more charming than peach blossoms, were incredibly captivating. Her skin was like snow, her black hair was tied into a high, beautiful bun, her waist was slender and could be grasped in one hand, and her shapely, jade-like legs were so white they reflected light; even her delicate little lotus feet were silently enchanting.

Prodigy!

To describe this woman, one could only use the word Prodigy.

But even facing such a Prodigy woman who topped the world, the Middle-aged Man did not dare to even raise his head.

If anyone were here, they would likely be shocked speechless.

Because this Middle-aged Man was the City Lord of Ming Prefecture City; not only did he possess formidable cultivation, but his background could be traced back to the Ancient Royal Clan, and he did not even fear those Immortal Dao Lineage.

Yet such a person was kneeling directly on the ground, his lowered face full of respect.

"Master, why help that Lin Ye of the Righteous Qi Sect? He has no relation to us, does he?"

"Hmm?"

The woman's enchanting voice sounded: "Are you questioning me?"

Although this voice was seductive to the bone, the Middle-aged Man seemed to have heard something terrifying, and his whole body trembled.

"I dare not! I dare not, I... I was just asking, I have no intention of questioning you!"

"Hehe... That is good. This Lin Ye has some connection to me; he cannot die at the hands of others. Besides... did you not sense the True Dragon intent on him?"

The woman's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her vermilion lips parted slightly.

"Lin Ye took my snake slough and has also formed a connection with the True Dragon Bloodline. It seems I must make a trip myself."

The Middle-aged Man chose to shut his mouth, fearing that he might say something wrong again and provoke the woman's anger.

...

The flying boat's speed was extremely fast, and the destination had already been set in advance. In less than half a day, they arrived at a majestic city.

The city walls of this city were the same as those of the Emperor Pass, towering into the clouds, and the patterns on the walls faintly flowed with Dao Rhyme, unbreakable.

Above the ancient city walls, there were two huge characters.

Martial Dao!

The characters seemed to have been carved above with Supreme power; staring at them caused the Qi Sea within the body to tremble.

Martial Dao City!

This was the capital of the Wu Dynasty. As the capital of an Immortal Dynasty, it was naturally majestic and solemn; even the two True Dragon statues outside the city gate exuded an inviolable aura.

Boom!!!

The flying boat slowly landed on the ground.

Lin Ye and Cheng Dezhu walked down from it.

As the capital of an Immortal Dynasty, naturally, flying boats could not land inside the city.

After parking the flying boat outside, they walked towards the city gate.

As soon as they reached the city gate, they were stopped by the guarding soldiers. Just as that person intended to ask about the identities of Lin Ye and Cheng Dezhu, they suddenly froze.

That set of red robes was truly too familiar.

And... this Lin Ye was the Princess's Dao Companion!

Thinking of this, the soldier hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Lin... Lin Gongzi, please come with me."

The soldier's face flushed red; he almost didn't know how to address Lin Ye. After all, although he had a marriage contract with the Princess, the two had not yet announced it to the world.

If he directly called him the Prince Consort, it wouldn't be right.

So he could only call him Young Master.

Regarding this scene, Lin Ye was not the least bit surprised. He was a Son of Destiny possessing a villain System; he certainly couldn't be like other Sons of Destiny, constantly acting cool and slapping faces. Besides, he only killed people; he didn't easily slap faces.

The surrounding soldiers obviously also noticed Lin Ye, and their pupils constricted.

Recently, the Wu Dynasty had not been peaceful at all.

Besides the friction with other Imperial Dynasty, problems had also occurred internally. Now was the critical moment for selecting the next successor!

If one were not careful, it would implicate many people.

Lin Ye, as the Princess's Dao Companion, arriving at the Wu Dynasty at this time, his purpose was self-evident.

"Sigh..."

The leading general sighed softly and turned to look at the prosperous capital. He seemed to feel a coming storm of blood.

After all, this Holy Son Lin was not someone to be trifled with!

He only hoped that those people in the Imperial Dynasty would not be too stupid! Otherwise, it would be troublesome!

Lin Ye followed the soldier and entered the capital directly.

As expected of the capital of an Immortal Dynasty, the city was prosperous, bustling with traffic and people, with pavilions and towers; the clamor of the Mortal World was intoxicating.

From time to time, Cultivators entered various pavilions, their eyes filled with a hint of fervor.

Coming here, they were either to exchange for resources or to indulge in pleasure.

The Immortal Dynasty was different from the Holy Land; it was open to the outside world, so it naturally attracted Cultivators from many forces to come here.

"Lin Gongzi, the Princess previously gave an order: if you arrived, I am to take you directly to her mansion. It is over here."

Obviously, this soldier was someone arranged by the Princess; otherwise, he would not have neglected his duty to act as a guide.
