Even at noon, with the sun high overhead, White Tree City remained cool.
The front courtyard of the White Residence.
Wei Jianxing, Wu Qing, and the other two had already packed their luggage. Once Wei Liu brought Zhang Yuan over, their Demon King subjugation team would be fully assembled, and they could follow the Clan Elder to Roselight Capital.
"Where is Liu? Why isn't she here yet?"
A middle-aged man in purple-black robes, his face covered in thick hair, stood before Wei Jianxing and the others with his hands behind his back. His tone was calm, his brows slightly furrowed, and he exuded authority without a trace of anger.
Wu Qing and Pan Zhong, who were meeting him for the first time, in particular sensed an intense, concealed pressure radiating from him. It was as though the middle-aged man before them was not human, but an ancient, savage beast.
The man was Wei Mian, the Wei Household's Clan Elder who had come to escort them to Roselight Capital. At the very least, he was an expert of the Nether Void or Nether Annihilation realm.
"She should be here soon," Wei Jianxing replied.
He had barely finished speaking.
Wei Liu appeared nearby and walked up to Wei Jianxing and the others. "All packed. Let's go."
"Where's Brother Zhang?" Wei Jianxing asked in confusion when he saw that she was alone.
Wu Qing looked behind her, but saw no second figure. Scratching his head, he said, "Yeah, where's Daoist Zhang?"
"He wished us a smooth journey," Wei Liu said flatly.
Wei Jianxing sighed at her words and said regretfully:
"Ah, Daoist Zhang came wandering here from the Southern Heaven Realm. He must have important business to attend to and can't spare the time to visit Roselight Capital with us. What a shame
