Returning to the Imperial Capital

Chen Ning's eyes flickered slightly.

He pondered Cang Yue's words.

Normally, he doesn't like participating in these kinds of activities; they're too troublesome and not very interesting.

Moreover, given his status, whether or not he accepted the invitation from the Great Yan Emperor was entirely up to his own discretion.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, the Dragon-Seeking Sect is an extremely powerful and terrifying super sect.

There's a saying...

To the untrained eye, the outside world believes that the Dragon-Seeking Sect is incredibly powerful, with countless strong individuals.

However, Chen Ning, an expert, could tell from his eyes that they were all undercover agents!

(╯°Д°)╯┻━┻

But this time was different; the little girl happened to run into some trouble in the capital.

Let's go there while we're at it.

With the emperor's connection, the Shi Clan's predicament might be resolved without much effort.

Chen Ning asked through the Voice Transmission Spirit Stone, "When do we set off?"

Soon.

Cang Yue's reply came through, "There's no rush. The Great Yan Emperor said it's up to you. You can go whenever you have free time."

Have a look!

This is the hidden benefit of status.

Even the overlords of the dynasties in Spirit Province have to be mindful of his feelings.

However, Chen Ning was a little worried about the little girl, so he didn't plan to delay any longer.

He immediately set a time, saying, "Tomorrow night then."

"Of course, I will have someone inform the Great Yan Emperor immediately."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"It's not bitter at all; it's my honor."

"Hehe."

Not knowing how to continue, he simply cut off the connection with the Voice Transmission Spirit Stone.

Chen Ning immediately relaxed.

"Finally, I can rest..."

The next day.

He chose Xiao Yuan and another Black Dragon Clan at the Spirit Martial Realm Peak to accompany him.

Chen Ning felt that things were very different from before.

Now I have trusted confidants.

He has his own loyal subordinates.

Because he didn't trust others, Chen Ning's bodyguards had long been withdrawn.

After the Black Dragon Clan arrived, they immediately assumed this position.

Now I live near my home.

That area is guarded by a group of elite Black Dragon Clan.

If an ordinary expert at the Spirit Martial Realm were to come rashly, they would likely be captured by the Black Dragon Clan.

Beaten half to death.

Most importantly, the Black Dragon Clan is incredibly loyal.

They are also very practical in their work.

I will never leave my post without authorization.

Instead, they diligently performed their duties.

They will do their best to complete any tasks assigned to them.

Even if it costs me my life, I wouldn't hesitate!

Chen Ning considered that when he had time, he could arrange for them to practice a combined attack formation or something similar, which would make their combat strength even stronger.

In front of the teleportation array.

Several figures stood there.

Chen Ning was not going alone this time, apart from Xiao Yuan and the other two who were with him.

Cang Yue accompanied them on this trip as well.

Also traveling with them was Ying Wu, a practitioner of weather forecasting.

To be honest, Chen Ning had never even seen Ying Wu's face clearly once.

Every time I saw her, her face seemed to be shrouded in a shadow.

I wonder what she looks like?

However, as the Grand Elder's personal maid, her combat skills are undoubtedly top-notch.

Chen Ning, however, was pondering to himself.

Cang Yue is going along this time, and there's a certain danger involved, to be honest.

That's their territory.

Just to be on the safe side, we need to keep her calm for now.

Chen Ning hatched a plan and whispered to Cang Yue, who was very close to him, "My disciple, I've recently had some enlightenment and have mastered an even more powerful move. Would you like to experience it?"

Chen Ning did not hide it from others.

None of them are outsiders.

The girl Ying Wu was utterly loyal to Cang Yue.

Xiao Yuan and the other two are also one of my people.

Besides that, there was no one else around, so Chen Ning had no reservations and whispered directly in his ear without any problem.

However, Cang Yue interpreted these words differently.

A blush instantly appeared on her beautiful face.

What is the sect leader going to do?

Cang Yue couldn't help but let her thoughts wander.

"I mean, I've made progress in the art of talismans, and I'll teach you later."

Seeing that the other party seemed to have misunderstood, Chen Ning hurriedly spoke up and drove the car back from the highway.

"Yes, thank you, Master."

Cang Yue's cultivation level was high enough that she could use her True Essence Power to transmit her voice, so there was no need for her to get close enough to speak.

The sounds could all reach Chen Ning's ears clearly and accurately.

As for the others, they couldn't hear a single word.

Chen Ning smiled and nodded; this was his plan.

First, use talismans to stabilize Cang Yue.

At least that would guarantee that Cang Yue wouldn't harm him while they were in the capital.

However, why does Cang Yue sound a little disappointed?

Chen Ning was somewhat puzzled, but since the teleportation array was already activated, he didn't dwell on it.

Then, the group stepped into the teleportation array one after another.

Teleported to the Great Yan Imperial Capital.

This is my second time here.

Last time, adhering to the principle of keeping a low profile and being in a hurry to find the whereabouts of the Thief God, I didn't have time to properly explore this imperial capital.

The Great Yan Imperial Capital.

It was several times larger than the Gold and Iron City.

Moreover, it is more prosperous, and the streets are orderly.

As the overlord of Spirit Province.

The Great Yan Imperial Dynasty possesses an incredibly profound foundation.

The area under his rule was a scene of great prosperity.

The current Great Yan Emperor is quite capable.

Ordinary people live in peace and contentment.

In terms of military force, it is sufficient to protect the country.

Not only does it have the renowned Marquis Who Guards the North, who commands an army of 300,000.

The powerful martial artists also won over many followers.

Instead of finding a place to stay, they exited through the teleportation array and boarded one of the several carriages prepared by the palace staff, traveling without any obstacles.

The imperial carriage was extremely luxurious and prestigious, and only members of the royal family were entitled to ride in it.

With their entourage, the banners fluttered and the retinue was numerous.

Before long, they arrived at the palace.

They headed straight for the Hall of Stars.

The top floor of the Hall of Stars is located at the highest point in the capital.

It is a place for observing celestial phenomena.

At the same time, one can also enjoy a panoramic view of the entire capital city.

Today's banquet is being held here.

However, apart from Chen Ning and his group.

Today, the Great Yan Emperor also invited several other forces from the Spirit Province region.

Compared to a super sect like the Dragon-Seeking Sect, it is naturally far inferior.

However, in Spirit Province, they were all renowned and prestigious families.

They are Heavenly Extremity Pavilion, Profound Yin Sect, and Longevity Hall.

The Great Yan Emperor stood in the Hall of Stars, gazing at the capital, his face expressionless, making it impossible to discern his thoughts.

As a leader who revitalized the dynasty.

Since his accession to the throne, he has successively annexed more than ten countries, large and small, across the land of Spirit Province.

And for decades, they have worked diligently to improve the situation.

Now, looking around...

The Great Yan Imperial Dynasty has become the true overlord of Spirit Province.

As a monarch...

He has every reason to be proud.

Some time ago, divine words were even spoken, bringing blessings to the Spirit Province.

Such a sight, such a stroke of luck, filled Yan Emperor with boundless joy.

Spirit Province is experiencing a period of prosperity.

Doesn't this mean that his Great Yan Imperial Dynasty could also rise to power and have the opportunity to extend its reach to Spirit Province, achieving lasting hegemony?

Reaching heights unattainable by predecessors.
