Chapter 52: Arriving At The Sentry City
The further northwest one goes, the colder the weather becomes.
The trees on both sides of the official road began to shed their leaves, which floated down like snowflakes. As the carriage passed by, the leaves were stirred up and swirled chaotically in the air.
The green mountains and rivers that had been seen all the way had turned into barren hills and wastelands. Moreover, dangerous beasts had started to appear, and it was not uncommon for travelers to be attacked and killed by these monsters in the northwestern territory.
A medium-sized merchant caravan was traveling along the leaf-covered official road. The relaxed guards of the caravan suddenly became cautious. Not only were there monsters lurking around, but large groups of bandits could also appear at any time.
Inside the luxurious carriage at the center of the caravan, the Goth Princess raised the curtain and looked outside at the lover trees that seemed to be embracing each other. Were the fluttering leaves like tears of the lovers?
Love is a double-edged sword, how can lovers be together? The Goth Princess sighed softly, stroking her large belly.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
The goth young man, Mimi, secretly watched the Goth Princess, his eyes flashing with a hint of admiration. But when the Goth Princess turned her head, he quickly lowered his head to conceal the irresistible look of admiration.
Mimi, you were too careless in Green Leaf City, the Goth Princess said lightly.
Hua Hua, dont worry about it. Qi Bei Nord should have already been caught at this time. Even if he escapes, the more than 200 soldiers under his command will suffer heavy casualties. He has his own problems and wont have the energy to track us down, Mimi said confidently. He had learned about the events in the Golden Leaf Imperial City and heard that the army of Emperor Han Mo was searching for Qi Bei everywhere. So he had a plan and sent someone to inform them.
Dont forget, Qi Beis fief is also in the West Spirit City. We might meet him there. Moreover, you said he seriously injured Feng Tian, a thunder mage of the Heavenly Mountain Peak. With that kind of strength, it wouldnt be wise for us to provoke him, the Goth Princess said, sounding reproachful. Since that day, she had felt uneasy in her heart.
Hmph, Hua Hua, do we still not know the situation of West Spirit City? Over there, even if Qi Bei is a dragon, he still has to coil up and if hes a tiger, he still has to lie low, Mimi whispered.
If you dont discuss things with me again in the future, Ill kick you back to the gutter. The Goth Princess glared at Mimi. It was too late to say anything now, and maybe the facts would really turn out as Mimi had said.
Under the scorching sun, it was almost noon. The Lord of Sentry City was lying on the white and tender body of one of his newly acquired concubines, thrusting his fat, pig-like body.
Qi Bei Nord!
Li Dongs smile became even more flattering. Qi Beis reputation had spread throughout the entire Golden Leaf Empire. As the head of the Li family, who always looked up to the Nord family, Li Dong had first-hand information about Qi Bei.
Qi Beis miraculous survival in the Undead Mountain Range had already spread like wildfire in the city. Although the news of his defeat of the Holy Lands disciple, the thunder mage Feng Tian, had not yet been spread, Li Dong had already learned about it through special channels.
Although Li Dongs own abilities were mediocre, he was still the eldest son of the Li family, so he was well-informed.
Of course not. Young master, are you joking? Your visit to Sentry City is my honor and the honor of the entire city. Li Dong flattered Qi Bei.
Haha, Li Dong, you really know how to talk. You have a bright future ahead of you. Qi Bei laughed. Although he was only sixteen years old, he called Li Dong, who was more than thirty years old, by his name. It sounded a bit funny, but Li Dong had an expression of great satisfaction on his face, as if Qi Bei calling his name was the greatest honor.
Young master, I heard that you are going to the West Spirit City territory. That place is not peaceful, and only someone as heroic and talented as you can handle it. Li Dong praised and indirectly asked about Qi Beis purpose for coming to Sentry City. It had to be said that although Li Dongs abilities were average, he was very good at ingratiating himself and was very slick when it came to human relationships.
Although Sentry City was also in the northwest, after Qi Bei left Green Leaf City, he had to go around to reach Sentry City, adding a considerable distance to his journey.
Yes, this trip to the West Spirit City is a long one, and theres no need for me to rush there all dusty. Ill just go around and have some fun. Qi Bei, of course, wouldnt tell the truth.
Thats great. Although my Sentry City is not prosperous, it has its own unique flavor. Li Dong emphasized the word flavor and smiled slyly, with only a narrow slit left in his eyes, as if to convey a message that only Qi Bei would understand.
Well, Ill have to experience it. Qi Bei smiled knowingly.
Li Dong then excused himself and left to prepare for the banquet, but Qi Beis smile faded, and the black longsword on his body was trembling slightly.
There was a faint dark aura around Li Dongs body. If he had not practiced dark magic, then someone had cast dark magic on him.
However, this time, the sword did not transmit any relevant information.
