Chapter 1037 - A Human in the Hall (1/2)

The two of them soon arrived at the gates of a large city. Leng Jin Yu hadn't been here before but just judging from the place where it was situated and its expanse, he was pretty sure that this should be the capital city of the beast tribe's territory. It seemed that the person he had met out there wasn't just anybody in the clan. In that case, how he handled this might have a bigger influence than he would've have assumed before. He definitely had to be careful with how he behaved and what he said.

The beast person led him into the city, taking another glance at Leng Jin Yu when they crossed through the gate but he didn't say anything. Leng Jin Yu also didn't speak up and just followed him, waiting to see where he would lead him.

In the end, he found himself in front of the palace. Leng Jin Yu slightly raised his brows when he looked at it. This place … It looked quite a bit like the palace of the dragon realm, didn't it? Maybe these two races were closer than he would've assumed in the beginning.

It seemed he still had quite a lot to learn if he wanted to be with Jinde. He definitely couldn't let him get into trouble because he didn't know about the relationships between the different races. He should really ask him about the spirit beast people as soon as he got back.

The beast person turned back to him, once again watching his expression. ”I'm going to have you meet with our king. If they really return, then this is the place where they would go. I assume you don't have a problem with that?”

Leng Jin Yu shook his head. ”No, that will be alright.” He just hoped that the spirit beast people would be fast with getting back home.

The two of them entered the building and went into the hall behind the gate. A throne could be seen on the other side of the room but it was currently empty.

Leng Jin Yu glanced around a little more, trying to see where the similarities with the dragon race stopped. From what Jinde had told him, that palace of the dragon race had undergone several changes because it was demolished in the war. The one he had lived and grown up in together with Chun Yin was not the same one that Qiu Ling was currently ruling from.

In general, the way they were built should have stayed the same though. For example, the hall where the king would receive visitors was not right at the front. There were several other rooms before it that visitors would have to pass before they could to see the king. In a way, it seemed that the spirit beast people were a bit more open than the dragons in that regard.

”You wait here for me.” The beast person clutched the box with the herb inside and then left the hall, not bothering to explain to Leng Jin Yu where he intended to go.

Leng Jin Yu stayed back and sighed. He really hoped that this would be over fast. He'd like to return soon so Jinde wouldn't have to worry.
