On the morning of the third day, it was just after Chen hour.
Gao Yuan left the underground stronghold and fled quickly towards Qingliang City.
I was speechless after a while of escaping.
In just one stick of incense, he had crossed a distance of thousands of miles and arrived at a height of about twenty miles from the south gate of Qingliang City.
Looking at the majestic city tower below that was bathed in and reflected the golden sunlight, a hint of emotion suddenly flashed through Gao Yuan's heart.
He subconsciously recalled ten years ago.
After he had just experienced the drastic changes in Qingyuan Town, he led Chen Ziming around for a long time in fear.
Only then did we finally arrive at Qingliang City, which is located in the southeast corner of the Northern Territory and is one of the sixteen major cities.
When he saw this majestic tower for the first time, his whole body and mind were deeply shocked——
At that time, he only had the cultivation level of the late stage of Qi training realm.
Even if you just stay in the outer city area, you will be walking on thin ice with fear.
I am afraid that if I am not careful, I will offend someone who should not be offended, and thus get into trouble that is difficult to deal with.
Even though he later entered the Kaiyuan Realm as he wished, his cautious and cautious situation did not fundamentally change.
So much so that later he decisively killed the minions sent by Xu Liangyong who had evil intentions against him.
He also chose to escape from the city at the first opportunity.
He was afraid that someone would find him committing murder in the city, which would lead to a situation that would be difficult to end.
These events, one after another, flashed before his eyes one after another like a slide.
Clear and familiar, as if it happened just yesterday.
However, ten years passed by in a snap.
And his personal strength continues to rise as his realm improves.
Compared to the past, earth-shaking changes have already taken place.
With his current strength, even looking at the entire Qingliang City, except for the city guard who has already reached the Soul Realm and is known as "Yu Linglong".
From then on, no matter which ancestor of the Hunyuan Realm family he faced, he had absolute confidence and could easily crush the opponent!
In this case, when he looked at the cool city tower in the distance below.
Although the latter is majestic and majestic, there is almost no change compared to ten years ago.
But thanks to the change in his vision and state of mind, at this time, no matter what, he could not realize the solemn and solemn oppressive atmosphere he felt when he first arrived in Qingliang City.
"Speaking of a thousand truths, my original strength was still too weak!"
"Only when you stand at a high enough place can you develop the kind of grandeur that looks down upon the world!"
Gao Yuan sighed softly in his heart, and forced himself to contain his somewhat divergent emotions.
His thoughts changed slightly, and he dispersed the magical power of 'Shadow Whirlwind' lingering around his body.
Then his figure flashed and quickly descended from the clouds.
After landing on the gravel road less than a kilometer away from the city gate, he ignored the awe-inspiring looks of the casual cultivators around him.
He blended into the latter group with a normal expression, followed the flow of people unhurriedly, passed the corner gate on the right, and entered the outer city of Qingliang City.
Along the main road that leads directly from the outer city to the inner city, Gao Yuan casually visited for a while, just like going shopping.
Under his careful observation, he found that in the entire outer city area, there was no sense of turmoil as he expected.
In the entire outer city area, except for the changes in the plaques of some shops, the overall architectural pattern and structure had almost no changes from the Qingliang City in his impression.
"Sure enough, with senior Yu Linglong, the master of the Soul Realm who suppresses all disobedience, there are several Hunyuan Realm families in the city. No matter how many conflicts and disputes they have behind the scenes, they dare not affect them after all.
Inside Qingliang City!"
Gao Yuan muttered to himself with some emotion, briefly estimated the time, and then headed straight towards Beicheng, where Zheng Song's family was located.
Today he came to Qingliang City mainly for two things.
The first thing was, of course, to fulfill the agreement made with Zheng Song three days ago and come to visit him.
Secondly, Gao Yuan is ready to accept the invitation of the previous senior ‘Yu Linglong’ and officially join the Qingliang City.
The road to spiritual practice is long, and naturally it cannot be separated from communication and transactions with the outside world.
Pure "behind closed doors" behavior is absolutely unacceptable.
Relatively speaking, his current external communication channels are highly dependent on the status of the Exile Alliance, and also have great hidden dangers.
Especially in 'Ember' and 'Flying Dragon City', these two big troublemakers are making frequent changes in the dark.
Once the legendary, cruel and bloody dark chaos comes again.
In a situation where a large number of beings in the spirit realm and above are dead.
As a late-stage monk in the Hunyuan Realm whose overall strength is not up to par, it is almost impossible to hide and be alone.
Therefore, it is very necessary to take advantage of the opportunity and join Qingliang City, whether it is based on his personal emotions or simply considering his own interests and safety!
"Well, after I finish visiting Zheng Song's family, I'll use the Jade Talisman to contact them and finalize this matter as soon as possible."
Gao Yuan muttered to himself, standing on the main road and taking a quick look.
Then he turned around and quickly entered the alley on the side of the road, walking slowly towards the depths.
…
Time passed very quickly, and it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon.
Gao Yuan left alone under the grand farewell of Zheng Song's family.
Until I turned out of the alley and got rid of the row of "attention gifts" behind me.
He subconsciously rubbed his stiff cheeks and sighed with a complicated look on his face.
The half-day interaction was completely different from what he had expected, and was completely different from the scene where close friends drank and chatted.
Whether it was the meeting and conversation in the morning or the banquet afterwards, they were all enveloped in a different kind of depressing atmosphere.
Whether it was Zheng Song's wife, who only had Qi Training Realm cultivation, or his two sworn brothers with Kaiyuan Realm cultivation, and their families, they all obviously knew Gao Yuan's identity as a Hunyuan Realm monk in advance.
Therefore, these people were very nervous after seeing him.
Even after Gao Yuan realized this and made a conscious move to be friendly, what he got in the end was just a flattered expression and an even more frightened behavior.
Even Zheng Song himself was infected by the solemn atmosphere created by these people, and gradually showed a hint of restraint.
In this indescribably embarrassing atmosphere, during the whole process, only Zheng Song's son Zheng Ming, who had just turned four years old and was not yet familiar with the world, got along with Gao Yuan in the most harmonious and warm way.
There is no stinginess in being lofty and happy.
He directly prepared a number of protective objects that he had used in the Qi Training Realm and Kaiyuan Realm.
They were all put into a storage jade pendant with a storage space of 500 square meters, and given to little Zheng Ming as a meeting gift.
"Hey, when the gap between the two sides in terms of their own strength, social status, etc. expands to a certain extent."
"This huge gap that has arisen and is deeply rooted in the consciousness cannot be easily bridged by one of the parties deliberately showing a friendly and friendly attitude!"
Gao Yuan muttered a few words to himself with some emotion in his heart. Gao Yuan subconsciously recalled what he heard Chen Ziming mention before:
Back then, even the direct descendants of the Chen family were very reserved and repressed in front of the ancestor of the Chen family.
When he first heard this detail, Gao Yuan didn't take it to heart very much.
But after personally experiencing the cautiousness of Zheng Song's family today, he could intuitively feel the huge power attached to the words 'advanced monk'.
The huge gap created by the latter cannot be easily ignored even by blood relatives!
At the same time, what happened just now also sounded a wake-up call for him invisibly.
Before this, except for the mysterious man who recommended him to join the Exile Alliance, he had no experience in contact with monks whose cultivation level was higher than his own.
In this case, it would be fine if he met a completely unfamiliar high-level monk.
Out of caution, he will naturally pay attention to his words and deeds to prevent him from accidentally offending the other party.
But after he joined Qingliang City, this was no longer the case.
No matter what happens to him in the future, at least before he leaves Qingliang City, he will probably have many opportunities to come into contact with the senior ‘Yu Linglong’.
Although the latter had always behaved very friendly and approachable in previous contacts with him.
But the other party is, after all, a powerful figure in the Soul Realm whose real age is close to two thousand years old and has been powerful in all directions for thousands of years.
When you get along with him, you don't have to act servile and servile.
But at least some due etiquette must not be slacked off as we get to know each other better.
Otherwise, if he doesn't pay attention one day and offends this big boss because of some behavior, it will be an injustice!
As his mind turned, Gao Yuan's figure flashed and turned into a secluded place on the stone roadside.
There is no hidden restriction at hand, and the interaction with the surrounding environment is isolated.
He reached out and tapped lightly on the storage bag at his waist, and directly took out the summons token that the previous senior 'Yu Linglong' left for him before leaving.
After standing there and considering his words for a moment, Gao Yuan chose a slightly humble attitude, skillfully activated the communication token, and sent a communication message to the other side through the air.
Then he stood there with his hands tied expressionless and waited quietly.
…
It only takes about two minutes.
Gao Yuan felt a slight shock on the communication token around his waist.
He subconsciously reached out a little, and a human voice emerged in his mind.
The latter was not the clear female voice, but a strong and upright male voice.
The other party calls himself 'Yin Shiyi' and is the eldest disciple of the city guard 'Yu Linglong'. He is currently in charge of the position of the city lord of Qingliang City.
This person had obviously received the news in advance, and did not show any surprise at Gao Yuan's message and intention.
The lord of Qingliang City named 'Yin Shiyi' sounded very humble and polite in his tone.
Not only did he enthusiastically respond to Gao Yuan's message, but at the end, he directly stated that he had been in the city lord's palace recently.
As long as Gao Yuan is free, he can go to the City Lord's Mansion to meet him at any time.
"It's actually not the senior 'Yu Linglong' from before."
"That's right. I'm just a small Hunyuan Realm monk receiving me. Naturally, I don't need the big boss from the Soul Realm to come and arrange it myself."
"The main reason why it came to Dharmakaya through the air before was that it was alarmed by the coercive aura of the divine realm that erupted when the giant skeleton monster appeared."
"As for soliciting me, it's just that he did it casually after seeing a suitable person."
As his thoughts turned, Gao Yuan was not polite to the Yin Shiyi City Lord.
After a brief conversation with him, he directly agreed on a time to meet with him, and then headed straight towards the inner city.
…
We just arrived at the square outside the north gate of the inner city.
Still far away, Gao Yuan noticed a fat middle-aged man wearing a black uniform.
The latter was standing outside the corner door on the right side of the north gate with his hands lowered, his eyes scanning the surroundings from time to time.
At the same time that Gao Yuan noticed him, the fat middle-aged man also quickly noticed Gao Yuan.
I saw this man's spirit was slightly shaken, and he hurriedly trotted all the way to meet him.
It was at this moment that Gao Yuan noticed that behind him, there was also a gorgeous jade chariot pulled by two rows of sixteen unusually majestic alien camel beasts.
After this slightly fat middle-aged man came closer, he bowed quickly to Gao Yuan and saluted.
Then he said in a low voice with a respectful look on his face:
"Junior Chai Siyun, Tian is the senior deacon of the City Lord's Mansion. On the orders of the City Lord, I came here to greet my senior."
"Senior please move to the jade chariot, and junior will lead you to the city lord's palace."
Gaoyuan's gaze quickly tapped on this extremely luxurious jade chariot.
Then he didn't say much, just said a faint 'hmm'.
Then he flashed, walked straight through the open door, and boarded the jade chariot.
At the same time, the scene inside the jade chariot also caught Gao Yuan's eyes.
This giant jade chariot is about three feet wide and two feet deep.
The entire body is forged from some kind of dark golden metal material, and is faintly surging with energy fluctuations from a variety of high-level talisman arrays.
The interior of this jade chariot is paved with gorgeous brocades, tables with a wide variety of snacks and desserts, incense burners with fragrant fragrance emerging from time to time, etc., and the facilities are very complete.
Coupled with an area of at least fifty square meters, this is exactly the size of a medium-sized living room!
In addition to these hardware facilities, there are eight handsome maids in uniform uniforms in the jade chariot.
After the latter saw Gaoyuan boarding the jade chariot, he knelt down on the ground.
Gao Yuan's consciousness flickered slightly, and his heart suddenly moved.
These eight beautiful maids all have Kaiyuan realm cultivation!
"Tsk, is this how the ancestors of the Hunyuan Realm are treated?"
"Compared to a person practicing hard in the cold outside the city, there is a huge difference!"
