Heaven Dou City.
True to its status as the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, this ancient city possessed a natural imperial grandeur. Travelers and merchants coming from all directions streamed in an endless flow, and the bustling crowds and bustling carriages carried a roar of noise that ordinary kingdom capitals could not compare to.
Yet on this day, a tattered man returned from the Sunset Forest. If not for his credentials as a teacher at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the city guards might not even have let him in.
This man was none other than Teacher Sun Buyu, whom Yang Ming had deliberately let go.
Returning to Heaven Dou City once more, Sun Buyu felt a myriad of emotions in his heart, as if separated by a lifetime. Looking at the familiar streets before him, they actually gave him a strange feeling.
Shaking his head, Sun Buyu did not dare to delay in the slightest. Infusing his soul power into his feet and gathering his breath to hurry along, his speed was not the least bit inferior to a fast horse. Among the crowd, only a black shadow could be seen flashing past, stirring up a violent gust of wind. Occasionally, women clutched their short skirts, cursing at Sun Buyu's retreating figure and inquiring after his relatives.
The imperial palace was located in the center of Heaven Dou City, carrying the meaning of anchoring the four directions. The roads extended in all directions, and those who traveled them were mostly nobles, wealthy families, and rich merchants, with no commoners or weaklings to be seen.
When the tattered Sun Buyu passed by, the high officials and noble lords nearby frowned one after another, seeming to feel disgraced by such vulgar behavior from him as they covered their noses
