To the east of the northern border of the Gamma Empire, there are two mountains that run roughly east-west. They are not as majestic as Monster Mountain Range, but they are also extremely tall and difficult for the army to climb.
And at the junction of the two mountain ranges, there is a huge military city-Anbei City!
This city is tall and strong, with banners and flags on the top of the city. There are 24,000 Anbei Protectorate soldiers stationed there, and it is also the seat of Anbei Protectorate.
I entered the city under a false identity, and there was no trace of Chu Sha She in the Protectorate. It seems that with Jia Xingtian's order and the presence of the old man, he had already gone to the Western Front.
"Little guy, I really want to leave the city."
In a quiet Courtyard, Nalan Jie, who had taken over the entire Anbei Protectorate and was wearing Scarlet Heavy Armor, looked at me and said:
"Courage is commendable, but once you enter Tagor Desert, life or death is really unpredictable. If you are scared, just don't go. I won't laugh at you."
I was a little moved in my heart, but I couldn't stop. I cupped my hands and replied, "Grandpa, my grandson will definitely be able to complete his mission. Grandpa just needs to wait for good news."
"Haha, so brave!"
He laughed loudly, stepped forward and patted my shoulder, looked at me with relief, then looked at Ling Ying standing next to me, narrowed his eyes and asked:
"Ye Er, this old gentleman is"
Ling Ying is not Soul Bodies like Yao Lao. You cannot shrink into Ring of Holding. If you want to stay by my side for thirty years, you will definitely have to fight with the Nalan Family.
"Grandpa, he is my teacher. His name is Ling Ying. He was originally a hermit who traveled around and was unknown to everyone."
A great master suddenly appeared around me, and I didn't know how to explain it, so I could only explain it as a teacher.
Nalan Jie looked at Ling Ying, nodded slightly, but didn't say much. After a few more pleasantries, he was busy with military affairs, so he got up and left.
I had a nice night's rest at Anbei City, and after having breakfast the next day, I also came out with Anbei City.
Anbei City The city wall is extremely high and thick. When you slowly walk out of the deep city gate, your eyes suddenly become clear.
In front of me, there is a golden sand sea that stretches endlessly. Behind me, there are green mountains stretching to the east and west sides, blocking all the sand sea from spreading to the hinterland of the empire.
The intersection of the sand sea and the mountains is the ancient mottled Anbei City.
In order to hide myself from others, I didn't let Ling Ying fly on my back until I was more than ten miles away.
Tagor Desert is huge, with seven or eight Gamma Empires in size. Unfortunately, most of them are desert areas where they cannot survive. Only oasis is the foundation for the Snake-People Tribe's survival.
It flew all the way, or detoured, or was covered by clouds, and was not discovered by Snake-People. In the evening of the next day, Snake-People Holy City appeared in front of me.
A large river originated from the Monster Mountain Range, flowing from southeast to northwest in the vast desert, then turning in the distant horizon, washing out a huge lake and oasis.
Under the setting sun, the endless lake is sparkling, and the boundless water extends for dozens of miles to both sides. There are large reeds on the water's edge, with countless white waterbirds hovering above it, and fish jumping out of the water, full of life.
There are Snake-People fishing on the water, and near the lake, there are countless farmlands with criss-crossing roads, and the green and yellow wheat that is about to mature is gently swaying.
And Snake-People Holy City stands on the east side of the lake.
The majestic scene in front of me made me lose my mind for a while, and I was shocked beyond words. Although I had known that Snake-People Holy City looked like this, it was only when I saw it with my own eyes that I realized how shocking it was.
"Jiangnan Beyond the Great Wall!"
After a long time, I sighed leisurely, "Such a beautiful and fertile land, it really deserves to be called Jiangnan Beyond the Great Wall."
After falling behind a Sand Dune, I didn't rush to Snake-People Holy City rashly. Instead, I took out the dry food and said:
"Cai Lin, come out."
Ling Ying on the side raised his eyebrows, wondering who I was talking to.
At this time, a faint White Mist breath emerged from my head, lingering and slowly turning into a graceful figure. When he saw the figure clearly, his face was full of astonishment, and he subconsciously stood up to be on guard.
Medusa ignored him, just stood in front of me, its erratic snake tail gently rubbed Yellow Sand, bent down and worshiped:
"Seen Great One."
I nodded lightly and knew that she could appear just like Yao Lao. At this time, she didn't look much different from when she was alive, but her figure was illusory. After all, she was just a Remnant Soul.
"Elder Ling, this is the new queen of the Snake-People Tribe - Cai Lin. You may have seen her before"
Ling Ying nodded, he naturally knew Medusa. However, his eyes wandered back and forth between me and Cai Lin, with a look of hesitation on his face, and he said:
"Nalan Ye, this is what you are"
I chuckled and said calmly, "That day Cai Lin self-destructed but it was just Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell. Under the cover of the self-destruction, a Remnant Soul escaped everyone's perception and quietly sneaked into my mind."
"Then..."
I spread my hands helplessly towards Ling Ying and said, "As you can see, she was subdued by me."
Ling Ying raised his eyebrows. Although I said it lightly, how could he not know the dangers involved?
A Nine-Star Dou Huang who is no weaker than him, even if it is just a Remnant Soul, there is no reason to lose to a Dou Master!
He looked at me deeply, then remembered the transaction about Azure Lotus Core Flame, and finally couldn't help but ask:
"Nalan Ye, where are you from?"
I shrugged, of course it was impossible to answer. I took out the dried meat and wine from Ring of Holding and threw them over, then looked at Medusa.
She lowered her head and stood beside me, with a submissive look on her face. It was just how much sincerity there was and how much was false.
But it is unknown.
"Cai Lin, according to the plan, go back to the God Hall to meet Yue Mei... and then ask her out. I want to have a talk with her."
I looked at West, and the fiery red sun had mostly sunk into the quicksand. It was getting dark, and it was at the intersection of day and night, which was the most suitable time for sneaking.
"As commanded."
Cai Lin bowed slightly towards me and praised, "When Yue Mei knows that the glory of Great One has come to Tagor Desert, she will definitely kneel at your feet with sincerity."
"Because only your glory can dispel the darkness of Tagor."
I smiled softly and waved to her. She bowed to me again, then Body Flicker turned into a ball of White Mist and floated Snake-People Holy City in the distance.
"You just let her go"
At this time, Ling Ying suddenly spoke up. He looked at it, shook his head, and said, "Although I don't know how you subdued her, it's not good for you to let her go like this."
"You can't tame a tiger with just a cage and a whip - of course, I didn't tame her either."
I smiled softly at Ling Ying and said, "If you use threats and lure her, as long as she can get benefits from me, she will come back no matter how far she goes."
"And I have exactly what she needs in my hands."
Ling Ying didn't ask me what I had in my hand. He just sighed, looked at me and said faintly, "Snake-People Tribe, listen to my advice, don't get too close to them, otherwise you will get into a lot of trouble."
"Elder Ling, Cai Lin are all in my hands. Snake-People Tribe has at most one newcomer Dou Emperor. What trouble can there be?"
I was a little puzzled, staring at Ling Ying, suddenly something occurred to me, and my expression changed. Ling Ying comes from Central Plains, and Snake-People Tribe also comes from Central Plains!
"Elder Ling, could it be that Snake-People Tribe's catastrophe thousands of years ago - is not over yet!"
