Chapter 290 - The City Gate Incident

After bidding farewell to the citizens of the Goldfish Island, Long Chen took Ling Xi and the little wolf and stepped onto the road that led to the Biyang Royal City. In front of this huge city, Long Chen was like a tiny ant, or a small stone thrown into the ocean.

As he sat on the wolf cub's back with Ling Xi, the wolf cub's speed was extremely quick. Before long, Long Chen had already seen the city lying across the horizon from afar. This enormous city looked to be at least ten times bigger than the Source Spirit City.

It was this city that separated the heaven and earth.

The closer they got, the larger and larger the city became. In front of this enormous monster, Long Chen was no different from an ant.

In front of this huge city, there were many people riding demon beasts, but the Sun Devouring Demonic Wolf was a little special, because she was worried that it would cause unnecessary trouble, Long Chen made the little wolf withdraw from her fighting state and followed behind him. As for Ling Xi's peerless beauty, it would also make Long Chen look especially bad, thus she took out his cape and let Ling Xi bring it.

”As long as we enter the city and find the Ninth Prince, there shouldn't be any unnecessary troubles.” Long Chen thought.

Since the Ninth Prince was not here, he did not have any status in the Biyang Royal City. Although Long Chen could not see through the Ninth Prince, and estimated that he would not sincerely make friends with Long Chen, Long Chen still had to rely on him to enter the Inverse Wonderland.

Only after he made sufficient preparations did Long Chen begin the process.

This was the southern gate of the Biyang Royal City, although it was not the largest city gate, but its size was still something the Source Spirit City could not compare to. From all directions, people came and went into the city and left, Long Chen stood on one of the wide public roads and walked forward, looking ahead, there were no less than ten public roads, and the closer they got to the Biyang Royal City, the more human and beasts' property they had.

Holding Ling Xi's hand, Long Chen followed the crowd and almost reached the city gate. As long as he pa.s.sed through this gate, he would think of a way to determine the Ninth Prince's whereabouts.

”You two, stop!” Just at this time, one of the guards called out to Long Chen and his group.

Outside of the Biyang Royal City stood rows upon rows of soldiers, all looking to be over a thousand soldiers. Judging from the appearance of the person speaking, he should be a small officer like the centurion, with a fierce-looking face, thick muscles and black stubble covering half of her face.

”I wonder what is the matter, my lord?” Long Chen pulled Ling Xi to his side, and with an indifferent expression, he looked at the little officer who stopped him and asked.

”This woman is wearing a cloak. There must be something that cannot be revealed. I have to check it before I can let her in!” The officer saw that Long Chen was just a yellow haired boy, after saying that, he immediately stepped forward, and without caring if Long Chen agreed or not, he directly lifted Ling Xi's cloak.

Long Chen protected Ling Xi next to him, and looked at the officer with his sharp eyes. He did not want to fight with the officer, but since the officer was so aggressive, he had no choice but to fight back.

”What are you doing?” ”And rebellion?” Seeing that Long Chen actually dared to disobey, the officer looked at Long Chen in surprise, his tone gradually becoming colder.

”Lord, you're being too serious. From what I see, there are a lot of people who don't reveal their true colors. Why are they only targeting us?” Long Chen said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

These city guards had at least the strength of Divine Pill Realm. Although this little officer's rank wasn't high, he still had the strength of Heavenly Core. Furthermore, behind them was the entire Biyang Royal City's army. It was really unwise for Long Chen to clash with him, but he was also not someone to be easily bullied.

At this moment, many people had already seen the conflict. Some people who loved to watch the commotion did not bother entering the city and started pointing.

In fact, there was a reason why this officer was targeting him. Although Ling Xi was wearing a cape, he was curvaceous. Judging from the contours of the cape, he must be a rare beauty. Seeing that, the officer was moved, and then he spoke to stop Long Chen. All for the sake of giving Long Chen a hat, and then openly abducting Ling Xi.

This wasn't the first time they had done this.

Of course, it was not the first time for the people who stayed in Biyang Royal City to see these officers acting so recklessly. They could guess that the reason for Long Chen's death was because he had been killed, his corpse buried, and Ling Xi had become a toy of the officers. If he was really too beautiful, he would have been offered to the higher ups by these young officers. In this way, officers could be rewarded, or even promoted.

Within the imperial city, even if it were the three great families, they would still be running errands for the imperial family. As for the army of the Biyang Royal City, they were the direct descendant of the imperial family, so if one did not have enough power and backing, who would dare to mess with these tyrannical soldiers?

Long Chen was not an idiot. He could differentiate the rules just by thinking about it. The army belonged to the imperial family, but Long Chen was still the fairyland G.o.dly guard that the Ninth Prince had personally recruited. Why should he be afraid of these people?

At this time, the black-bearded officer saw that Long Chen, this rash youth, actually did not understand. He originally wanted to give this brat a way out, but he did not expect Long Chen to court death. He sneered and called out to everyone: ”Men, I have already investigated thoroughly, this man is a disciple of the Demonic Palace.

”Yes, centurion!”
