Chapter 45 (V4) - The Sky City

Editor: Ryuu

The Great Yu Emperor Dynasty was in a valley.

General Tie Xue escorted a group of people with Princess Qianyou to the capital of the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty, the Sky City.

At the moment, they were stationed in the valley, resting for a period of time before continuing on their journey.

The tents were set up in the valley, Princess Qianyou and her group were in the central tent, while General Tie Xue was outside observing the four directions.

Inside the tent.

“Qianyou, it will take some time to reach the Sky City.” Gu Lin asked.

“Soon, this is the last break, next time, you’ll be able to go straight to the Sky City.” Princess Qianyou nodded her head.

“But, we didn’t have assassins on our journey, as you said.” Gu Lin frowned and asked.

“It’s not that there weren’t any, it’s that they saw the army of the Great Great Yu Emperor Dynasty and retreated.” Princess Qianyou was very sure.

“Who exactly are they, do you know, Shui Jing?” Gu Lin looked at the Shui Jing.

“The Emperor Dynasties that wish for a war between Great Luo and Great Yu, especially the ones that are still at war with Great Luo, they wish for it, but of course, other Emperor dynasties besides these people also wish for it as well.” Mr. Shui Jing said.

“Hmm,” Gu Lin frowned.

“Princess, I wonder what is the status of Yi Yan in the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty?” Zhong Shan sat on the side and asked.

“Yi Yan? Yi Yan was a minister of the late Emperor of the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty who was entrusted with the task.” Princess Qianyou said.

“The late emperor? Isn’t the Great Yu Emperor Empire founded by Nalan Piaoxue Blood?” Zhong Shan was confused.

“No, Great Yu Emperor Dynasty, experienced three generations, Nalan Piaoxue Blood inherited the throne a hundred years ago. His father, Nalan Zhengde, as his grandfather, reached the limit, and was unable to break through, only with reluctance of Celestial Five Wanings, the throne was passed down to Nalan Piaoxue, although Great Yu Emperor Dynasty has experienced three generations, but very miraculously it stabled and settled down, especially this generation of Nalan Piaoxue, is even more heavenly! The talent in the cultivation is directly comparable to his father.” Princess Qianyou thought about it.

“Yi Yan was a trustee of the late Emperor Great Yu Emperor? Is Nalan Piaoxue not as good as the previous generation’s late emperor?” Zhong Shan suddenly grasped the key in Princess Qianyou’s statement.

“What goes around comes around, although Nalan Piaoxue’s talent and cultivation exceeds that of his ancestors by a great deal, but, in the end, it is not enough for his father to be old enough, perhaps he will be able to catch up with his father in a few hundred years, but, it is not enough now, his father has left him the amazing talent of Yi Yan.” Princess Qianyou said.

“Astonishing talent? I remember it seems like he’s only at the Nascent Soul stage of cultivation?” Zhong Shan frowned.

“It’s just the Nascent Soul stage, and he’s seriously ill, but no one can erase his monstrous accomplishments. It’s like Mister, who is only at the Golden Core stage and also has amazing talent.” Princess Qianyou smiled.

“Princess has overpraised me,” Zhong Shan immediately shook his head.

Looking at Zhong Shan, Princess Qianyou didn’t praise him any more, but continued, “A hundred years ago, Nalan Zhengde collapsed, and the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty was shattered and stormy. Inside, there was the rebellion of the Eight Kings, and the five great families gathered troops to stand on their own, while outside, there were the four great armies of the Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty, Great Guang Emperor Dynasty, Great Yan Sovereign Dynasty, and Great Lu Sovereign Dynasty, which took advantage of the chaos to attack the city and destroy the dynasty. Basically, the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty should have been finished, but at that time, before Nalan Zhengde’s death, he handed over the Grand Commander Tiger Sign to Yi Yan, and in just thirty-four years, Yi Yan, a weak and unbearable man, shocked the three armies, pacified internal chaos, and struck at external troubles, which could be described as astonishing tactics to deter the world. The Great Yu Emperor Dynasty is standing once again.”

“Only this one person?” Zhong Shan took a deep breath.

“Not bad, this one person alone has saved the world, sweeping away the world in one fell swoop and shocking the eight directions. After this battle, Yi Yan’s great name resounded completely in the divine state, and this person’s great achievements are respected even by the enemy dynasty’s generals, not to mention within the Great Yu Emperor Empire. It can be said that among the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty, the prestige is unprecedented, except for Nalan Piaoxue, this person is the most respected.” Princess Qianyou exclaimed.

Listening to Princess Qianyou’s description in shock, Zhong Shan’s mind kept recalling the last person he saw. The Yi Yan who seemed like a gust of wind could blow him down, the Yi Yan who was willing to be a stepping stool even for the first commander of the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty.

“It should be noted that the high merit can calm down, how does Nalan Piaoxue treat Yi Yan?” Zhong Shan looked towards Princess Qianyou.

“The Great emperor of the Great Great Yu Emperor Dynasty, after all, is only Nalan Piaoxue, the highest prestige should only be him, although Nalan Piaoxue still uses Yi Yan, but also used a distant relative of the Nalan family to counterbalance it, but Yi Yan also seems to be seriously ill, dying, so did not go too far, only some political views when implemented, to achieve the court, not the words of Yi Yan.” Princess Qianyou thought about it.

“A distant relative of the Nalan family, then his status must be very high in the Great Yu Emperor Empire.” Zhong Shan thought about the question.

“That’s right, the Giant Deer King of the Great Great Yu Emperor Dynasty is still above Nalan Piaoxue in seniority.” Princess Qianyou nodded her head.

“How about the Giant Deer King?” Zhong Shan looked at Princess Qianyou and asked.

“Can be used to check Yi Yan, what does Sir think of this person?” Princess Qianyou asked instead of answering.

Nodding his head, Zhong Shan had an idea.

Three days later, Zhong Shan’s group of people, escorted by the army, finally arrived at the capital of the Great Yu Emperor Empire, the Sky City.

General Tie Xue flew at the front with a group of Zhong Shan’s men, while nearly 8,000 generals flew at the rear.

Standing on the clouds, Zhong Shan looked at the Sky City in the distance and was filled with wonder.

The Sky City, the city was two thousand kilometers high, with a white jade color throughout its body, and above the top of the city, a golden yellow, a large amount of golden mist gathered and converged on the entire Sky City.

On top of the city, there was a golden yellow patch of air, and a large amount of golden mist gathered and pooled on the entire Sky City. Golden and yellow, this luck was actually so strong. Even on top of the endless luck, Zhong Shan saw a huge creature.

A dragon, a gigantic golden dragon formed entirely from Luck, the golden dragon was vast and hovering, its head slightly elevated, its eyes seemingly open and closed. It was slightly exhaling its breath, absorbing the city’s Qi fortune, and pointing its two horns to the sky, as if it was receiving the fate of the heavens.

This huge dragon was hovering in the sky above the city.

True Dragon Emperor? God’s will? That’s what an Emperor Dynasty looks like?

Zhong Shan took a deep breath, his eyes filled with shock. If even the Emperor dynasty was like this, what about Heavenly dynasty? And that Great Zheng King Dynasty of his own was really like a village state in the countryside, the road was still far away.

In the distance, it was the North Gate of the Great Yu Emperor Dynasty, with four vast characters ‘Sky City’ floating on top of the gate.

At the North Gate, at this moment, a large number of generals were standing, cleaning the city gate corridor, the city residents were blocked from entering or leaving, and a large number of officials were waiting outside the city, apparently coming to greet a group of people from Princess Qianyou.

From a long distance away, Zhong Shan was able to see the head of the distant officials.

Grand Commander, Yi Yan?

Yi Yan was welcoming personally? Everyone’s brows furrowed.

Following that, the white clouds fell not far outside the city gate. General Tie Xue stepped back slightly, and Princess Qianyou led the crowd forward.

“An ambassador from the Heavenly Dynasty, If Yi Yan has missed somewhere in this welcome. Please do not blame him.” Yi Yan immediately put his hands in front of him, and his two long sleeves that were loosely linked together made a welcoming salute.

“Mr. Yi Yan is too modest, since the start of the Eight Desolates City, for escorting us to Sky City, thank you, sir.” Princess Qianyou bowed slightly.

“Two years ago when the front mountain gathered, the princess’s elegance was still the same, it is an honor for the Crown Prince to accompany us, the Great Yu.” Yi Yan immediately smiled.

“Mr. Yi Yan’s fallacious praise, Mr. Yi Yan has worked hard for the Great Yu, and is also a model for our life.” Qianyou returned.

“The one behind, is he Mr. Shui Jing?” Yi Yan immediately looked at the Shui Jing.

Obviously, Mr. Shui Jing’s portrait, Yi Yan must have already seen it, but now he was just asking on purpose.

“I have seen Mr. Yi Yan.” Mr. Shui Jing smiled.

“Mr. Shui Jing’s great name is like thunder, Yi Yan has long wanted to meet Mr. Shui Jing, and this time when you come to my Great Yu, you must go to my small adobe, and you and I can talk freely.” Yi Yan smiled.

“Definitely.” Mr. Shui Jing nodded, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

“Gentlemen, please.” Yi Yan waved his hand.

“Please,” Princess Qianyou nodded.

Following that, an official behind Yi Yan quickly lifted Yi Yan with a white cloud and slowly flew towards the city. Princess Qianyou and the others also stood on the white cloud and flew towards the city.

Once inside the city, Zhong Shan looked up and saw that the entire Sky City was much more imposing than the Unparalleled City, and in the distance, right in the center, was a high mountain with golden light. The summit of the most central palace was the place where the golden dragon was circling outside the city.

At the bottom of the mountain, there was also a golden light, and the interior could not be seen.

Within the entire Sky City, there were also countless floating islands, covered in red and blue light. The streets were wide, and the mountains and rivers flowed beautifully.

Under Yi Yan’s leadership, the crowd soon arrived at a red light curtain in the west of the city, which was an important private place. There were a large number of military armor stationed outside. Inside, there were many scenic buildings and even a floating island above.

Flying directly to a floating island above, he stood on top of a square. Yi Yan suddenly coughed.

“Cough~~~ Cough~~~ Cough~~~”

With a series of coughing, the officials all looked worried, and Princess Qianyou and the others stood quietly until Yi Yan’s coughing ended.

Gently taking out a silk handkerchief to wipe his mouth, Yi Yan looked towards Princess Qianyou, “Sorry, the old illness is back.”

“It’s okay, Mr. Yi Yan is worried for the Great Yu. It is the blessing of the Great Yu.” Princess Qianyou immediately shook her head.

“Princess is joking, His Majesty is worried about the battle with the Supreme Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva in eight months’ time, so he has been in closed-door recently and cannot welcome you personally. Also today, coincidentally, on the same day, Crown Prince of the Great Guang Emperor Dynasty Han Jue arrived at the Sky City and the Giant Deer King greeted him at the west gate, please don’t blame him.” Yi Yan said to Princess Qianyou.

“No, it’s already a great honor for Qianyou to have Mr. Yi Yan out of the city to greet you.” Princess Qianyou immediately returned.

“Cough~~ cough~~ cough~~” Yi Yan coughed again.

“This is the ‘Western Garden Palace’ specially prepared for the princess. The ceremonial officers of the Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty have already stayed first, and the princess can ask them about all the arrangements, the princess must have had a hard journey all the way here, Yi Yan will not disturb it for now, and will invite the princess and the Crown prince again the next day.” Yi Yan said.

“Thank you for the trouble.” Princess Qianyou said.

Yi Yan nodded and flew away quickly with the officials.
