Chapter 519 Entering the City
Chapter 519 Entering the City
Afterwards, Jiang Li forced out a drop of blood and signed a master-servant contract with the city spirit.
At Xie Changan's request, Jiang Li shared this contract with him through the Heart Contract. This means that Xie Changan can also monitor the movements of the city spirit at any time.
If it makes any unusual movement, we can kill it immediately!
Although the city spirit had some complaints about the man who replaced its master, it couldn't help but feel fear when it came into contact with the mysterious and deep starry sky in his sea of consciousness.
Deep in that starry sky, there is clearly an even more boundless sea of stars hidden!
This is a hidden boss!
After the master-servant contract was reached, Jiang Li scanned the city with his spiritual sense and soon discovered the imprisoned Bai Xian and her disciples.
Jiang Li moved his spiritual sense and released them.
Bai Xian was still in shock: "Little fairy, be careful, this city... is alive!"
How can this be called a dead city?
It is clearly a city with spirits and spirits that can run around freely!
Jiang Li smiled and said, "It's okay. I've taken Cheng Ling in. He's one of ours now."
Bai Xian finally felt relieved and was filled with admiration. The two immortal kings were indeed extremely powerful!
The city spirit said attentively: "Master, master, please come into the city quickly. I will definitely serve you well!"
Jiang Li laughed secretly, you don’t have your own body, how can you serve others with a bulky city?
"Okay." She smiled and went over to greet the guards, "It's okay, we can go into the city."
Qi Yong and his bodyguards took off the cloth covering their eyes and ears in a daze.
A personal guard whispered, "Your Highness, have you reconciled with the Duke?"
Jiang Li blushed: "It's just a misunderstanding, just talk it out."
Xie Changan looked unhappy and coughed.
The guards were frightened and immediately lined up and got ready to go.
Qi Yong trembled and said, "Your Highness, Duke, I... I didn't hear anything just now!"
After listening to the "love, hate and vengeance" of these two people, he felt uneasy, fearing that he would be silenced for hearing these secrets.
Jiang Li smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I am upright and have a clear conscience. I will not take someone's life because of a few rumors."
Hasn't she been slandered enough?
It’s impossible to stop people from talking so much. Does she have to refute them one by one?
Time will tell, and the truth will eventually come out.
Qi Yong stood in awe and bowed deeply, "Your Highness, your integrity is noble and upright. I admire you deeply!"
Jiang Li briefly recounted the origin of the ancient city to everyone.
"Qi Yong, your father died at the hands of a snake demon. Now the snake demon has been killed. The current city spirit is just a wisp of the snake demon's soul."
"When a person dies, it is like a light going out. All past grudges are wiped out."
After hearing the whole story, Qi Yong bowed and said, "The snake demon is dead, and my father's revenge is finally complete. This... Lord Cheng Ling, naturally, has no grudges against me."
Besides, would he dare to seek revenge on a living city?
If someone throws a brick at him, he will be killed!
"Okay, since everyone has no objections, let's enter the city now."
The city spirit was very happy and ordered the drums and music to play. Amid the solemn music, Jiang Li and Xie Chang'an, surrounded by their personal soldiers, walked into this thousand-year-old city.
Bai Xian led her disciples and came out to greet them respectfully.
"Welcome, Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Qi Yong was shocked when he suddenly saw a group of animals, big and small, bowing respectfully to them.
What kind of monster is this?
The personal guards were not surprised.
Jiang Li introduced them: "This is Captain Bai from our Tianji Camp. Oh, by the way, Captain Bai made great contributions in the Western Expedition. The emperor has issued an edict to promote Captain Bai to the rank of captain. He should now be called Captain Bai."
When the personal guards heard that this was the elusive immortal from the Tianji Camp, they all stood in awe.
When the war broke out with the Turpan Khanate, he made great contributions!
In particular, he besieged Gaochang City for ten days, forcing the Great Khan Ma Su to suffer a mental breakdown and surrender. The Western Expedition Army captured the royal city without bloodshed, and this man was the main contributor!
"Meet Captain Bai."
The personal guards were filled with admiration for the small hedgehog before them.
Bai Xian also bowed in return in a serious manner.
"Hello, comrades."
Qi Yong heard that this group of monsters, big and small, in front of him were actually members of the Dingguo Army, and that hedgehog was an officer of a high rank!
He didn't know how to react.
After entering the city, what came towards me was a white jade statue about several meters tall. It was wearing light clothes and wide sleeves, floating like an immortal, and its face was exactly the same as Jiang Li!
Jiang Li's face darkened. Was this another work of Nan Yonghe?
But why are the statue's eyes closed?
The city spirit explained, "The master's statue uses the eyes of a snake demon. If an enemy invades, the eyes will open and the enemy will turn into stone at the sight!"
Jiang Li suddenly realized.
It turns out that the legend that seeing a snake demon will turn you into a stone statue is actually true!
Xie Changan smiled slightly: "Since it has such miraculous effects, then keep it."
This is a powerful weapon for defending the city!
Jiang Li originally wanted Cheng Ling to tear down the statue, but after hearing what Xie Changan said, she gave up.
Qi Yong looked around and saw that the city was still as it was before with tall buildings and numerous shops, but the doors were closed and the city was deserted.
The city spirit said, "Master, how should the city be planned? Should it be rebuilt? Just tell me. I can do it!"
Jiang Li nodded: "Okay, let me think about it carefully."
The city spirit said attentively: "Master, I have already packed up the palace for you and the Immortal Lord."
Jiang Li raised her eyebrows slightly: "What new house? All the things, all removed! I don't want to see anything related to your previous owner."
Cheng Ling hurriedly said: "Xiao Ling understands. Xiao Ling will go check and see if there is anything missing."
Jiang Li and Xie Changan then led a group of people towards the towering palace in the city.
The architecture of this city combines the characteristics of the Central Plains and the Western Regions, with both towering castles and pavilions with carved beams and painted rafters.
At the end of the road is a majestic palace.
The ochre-red palace walls, with four towers standing at the corners and the gilded spires shining in the sun, look quite majestic and magnificent from a distance.
I guess this is the "love nest" that Nan Yonghe carefully built.
Xie Changan sneered: "An entire city as a betrothal gift, that's quite a generous gesture!"
Jiang Li glanced at him sideways: "He is no match for our Master Chonghua, and his junior sister is willing to enter the cycle of reincarnation and follow him through life and death!"
Xie Changan didn't dare to say anything.
Seeing that Jiang Li was a little angry, he quickly smiled and said, "Little Li Nu, are you hungry? What would you like for dinner?"
I wonder if there is any food in this city?
Jiang Li snorted: "I'm not hungry, I'm full of anger!"
"I was wrong. Even if you're not hungry, please eat something. If you don't eat, our Wuyouwuchou will have to eat too..."
The bodyguards standing by all had stern faces and pretended not to hear.
Soon, the group arrived at the palace gate.
