The banks of the Han River formed the heart of Rong City, its most bustling district.
Inns, restaurants, and all kinds of entertainment venues stood close together, and the population was quite dense.
In the next moment, several more strangers were stopped alongside Li Ye.
The newcomers looked bewildered. Once they learned what had happened, they flew into a rage.
The Han River was a public area, yet the other party was blocking access here. This was outrageous.
People denounced them from all sides.
"My master has given her orders: anyone who trespasses here will be killed without mercy."
A red-clad maid near the white-clad woman spoke coldly.

"Are you trying to make an enemy of the Jing Lineage?"
The burly man revealed his identity outright.
The few people who heard him turned pale:
"The Jing Lineage? The Jing Lineage of that reclusive Immortal King Clan?"
"So it really is them. An Immortal King family from the middle of the Ancient Era. They declined, then withdrew from the world to lie low and rebuild their strength. They only emerged again in the past century. I hear they've recovered quite well, with countless experts in their ranks and unfathomable depths."
Li Ye was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected the other party to have such a background.
A reclusive Immortal King family.
"What a powerful aura. Early Stage Domain Saint Sixth Heaven Realm! Could that be the legendary Proud Daughter of Heaven of the Jing Lineage, Grand Princess Jing Lin?"
At that moment, someone recognized the realm of the white-clad woman ahead.
She was the master of the burly men. They had their suspicions, and couldn't help
