Chapter 421 Leave The City

The territory of the Chen Kingdom was not large, Xu Han and the others encountered a few interrogations when they entered the Changwu Pass. He didn't encounter any trouble. He rushed with all his might along the way. No one could make Aowu transform into his true body. Some people could make Ah Huang transform into a giant ape and directly escape from the sky. The main reason was that Ah Huang, as a Monster King, didn't seem to like Aowu sitting on a monster that was obviously a level lower than him.

Unless he had to, Ah Huang was unwilling to compromise, and Xu Han did not argue with him.

After spending two days, they finally arrived at the capital of the Chen Kingdom, Jinling.

For the few little fellows, these two days of traveling were like being in heaven. Although influenced by Great Zhou, Many refugees had poured into the Chen Kingdom. Even if Fang Ziyu and the others had brought in more than 100,000 refugees, there were still 600,000 people who had spontaneously poured in from Great Xia and Great Zhou. Such a huge influx of people, coupled with the decay of the Great Zhou's land and the shortage of food, naturally caused the price of goods in the Chen Kingdom to soar.

However, just because Congress Chen grew madly did not mean that there were practically no shops in the Great Zhou Empire. Xu Han had enough silver on him, so every night, everyone would find a city to rest in, and it was inevitable for them to have an extravagant feast.

Most likely because they had satisfied their tongue, the mood of the crowd was pretty good, and they temporarily forgot to enter their situation.

Only when the city gate of Jinling City appeared in front of them did certain problems that they had to face appear in their minds.

Qin Keqing lowered her head. She looked at Xu Han carefully but without leaving any traces. Her heart was filled with bitterness. Xu Han explained his plan early in the morning. After he settled the people in Jinling, he would leave. Qin Keqing did not dare to ask where he was going.

She knew that what Xu Han wanted to do was extremely dangerous, and it was precisely because of this that Xu Han would never bring her along. She still carried a little bit of dragon qi on her body. To this world, dragon qi was more important than anything else. As long as dragon qi was around, there would be a chance of survival in this world. Therefore, whether it was for her own sake or for the sake of the overall situation, Qin Keqing had to protect herself. Therefore, she forcefully suppressed her desire to follow Xu Han and kept silent about Xu Han's departure.

She was enjoying this journey very seriously, and these two days in the territory of the Chen Kingdom could be considered as a peaceful life for the time being. Even though she didn't say much to Xu Han after a day, and even though Xu Han had been thinking hard all day, she couldn't help him. However, it was just like that. Just simply following Xu Han was a wonderful thing for Qin Keqing.

If this was a dream, Qin Keqing would be happy to keep doing so.

However, this stereotyped story did not necessarily end with a stereotyped ending.

Jinling City was completely different from what Xu Han and the others had imagined.

Jin Ling City was naturally not comparable to an ancient capital like Heng Imperial City and Chang'an. Especially at such a time, anyone should understand that the Chen Kingdom was about to face a great war from the Chu Kingdom. Not to mention the people in Jinling City should be panicked, but it shouldn't be like this in the end.

It was already evening, and the winter night had already arrived earlier. By the time the crowd entered the city, the sky had already darkened, and there was even a little snow on the horizon.

However, the chill brought by the fine snow was unable to disperse the lively scene in Jinling City.

Almost every courtyard and shop had bright red lanterns hanging in front of them, and everywhere, the craftsmen of the Imperial Court could be seen decorating the streets and alleys with some festive things.

"Is this… a festival?" Little Nineteen looked at this scene and calculated carefully with his fingers, but it seemed that there was nothing to celebrate today.

Xu Han was also a little strange about this, but after all, the customs of different countries were somewhat different. He did not have the heart to study it carefully. He only frowned and said, "Let's go to Ziyu's residence first."

Although everyone had been separated for a long time, it wasn't difficult to find out where Fang Ziyu and the others lived in Jinling City. The group didn't question Xu Han's decision, so they casually asked a few people on the street and received guidance. Fang Ziyu and the others were arranged to stay at the residence of Qin King at the west entrance of the city.

This mansion was left behind by Meng Liang's father, Meng Ke, after his death.

Originally, when Xu Han heard passers-by say that Chen Xuanji had arranged for everyone here, he felt a little strange, even though Munch's death was claimed to have been caused by illness. However, Meng Liang and Chen Xuanji knew exactly how Meng Liang had died. Perhaps because of the overall situation, Meng Liang would not attack Chen Xuanji, but in his father's former residence, Xu Han could not imagine how painful Meng Liang's heart was.

As for Xu Han, who came to the Qin Palace with this thought, his heart trembled when he saw the scene in front of the palace.

The entrance of the Qin Palace was filled with rows of armored soldiers, surrounding the Qin Palace's mansion to the third floor, which could be said to be packed with water.

Everyone instinctively retreated to a shadow outside the mansion and looked at it vigilantly.

"What's going on? Could it be that Ziyu and the others are imprisoned here?" Qin Keqing whispered.

However, Xu Han decisively shook his head and frowned, "With their abilities, how can these soldiers keep an eye on them?"

This wasn't a lie. From Su Mu'an to Fang Ziyu to Song Yueming, which one of them didn't have combat strength that far exceeded the ordinary Great Development Realm? Moreover, Liu Sheng, who had grasped a bit of half-demonic power, used all of his strength. His cultivation was close to that of an immortal. Of course, there was also Meng Liang, who, like Xu Han, had obtained half of Wang Yangming's Innate Sword Qi. Together, this group of people would absolutely not be able to trap them unless they mobilized half of the troops of the entire Chen Kingdom.

"Then what are they doing?" Nineteen also asked at that time.

Xu Han shook his head again. He wasn't omnipotent, so he naturally couldn't deduce much from such a situation. Therefore, after a moment of silence, he said, "Go take a look and you'll know."

As he spoke, he wanted to lead everyone towards the mansion surrounded by soldiers.

However, at this moment, a hand suddenly reached out from behind Xu Han's back and pressed down on his shoulder.

Xu Han subconsciously clenched his fist with his left hand and turned around to attack the person behind him. However, just as Ling Lie's fist wind reached the person's face, Xu Han's body trembled and he stopped the fist that was about to be swung out.

The person who suddenly appeared did not panic at all under Immortal Xu Han's aura. Instead, he grinned at Xu Han and said, "Follow me to drink a Gu."
