章節 135: Great, He’s Here! Teacher Will Be Saved!
After Jia Xing Tian left the royal palace, he immediately rushed towards the source of the powerful aura. Before long, he spotted where it was coming from.
"This is... the Amethyst Winged Lion King?"
Seeing the Amethyst Winged Lion King, Jia Xingtian quickly recognized who it was. It was Gu Fei!
"So, it's young friend Gu Fei!"
"Young friend Gu Fei, why didn't you let me know you were coming in advance? I could have prepared a grand feast to welcome you."
Jia Xing Tian landed in front of Gu Fei and the others, smiling warmly and speaking with great politeness.
He noticed that the Amethyst Winged Lion King had grown much stronger than before, and even the young girl Qing Lin had advanced to Dou Emperor. It was truly incredible.
In less than three years, a girl who had just started cultivating had already achieved such accomplishments. Jia Xing Tian couldn't help but feel that his own years of cultivation were in vain.
"Queen Medusa?"
When his gaze fell on Cai Lin, Jia Xingtian was stunned for a moment. He had interacted with Queen Medusa before, but now, this fierce and powerful woman was standing beside Gu Fei.
Moreover, the way she looked at Gu Fei was filled with... tenderness? Was this the kind of expression that should appear in this woman's eyes?
Jia Xing Tian took a deep breath, his eyes returning to the unfathomable Gu Fei. Although he couldn't discern Gu Fei's level, the fact that his mount was a seventh-rank magical beast suggested that Gu Fei's strength was unimaginable. Jia Xingtian guessed that he might have reached the peak of Dou Ancestor, or even the legendary Dou Venerate!
"Young Master Gu Fei, since you've traveled such a long way, you must be tired. Why don't you rest in the palace for a while and allow me to extend some hospitality?"
Gu Fei's purpose for this trip was to discuss matters with Jia Xing Tian, so it was convenient to talk in the palace.
"I'll take you up on that offer," Gu Fei replied with a smile.
"Please!"
Jia Xing Tian was overjoyed that Gu Fei agreed and led everyone to the palace.
...
"It was that magical beast earlier... so Young Master Gu Fei has arrived. That's wonderful! Teacher can be saved!"
In the Nalan family estate within the imperial capital, Nalan Yanran finally snapped out of her daze after seeing the Amethyst Winged Lion King pass overhead.
Due to the changes in the Misty Cloud Sect and the fact that her teacher, Yun Yun, was under house arrest, Nalan Yanran had been staying at the Nalan estate.
She wanted to rescue her teacher but was too weak to make any difference. Now, with Gu Fei's arrival, Nalan Yanran felt a renewed sense of hope.
"Tomorrow is my teacher's wedding day. I must act quickly..."
With determination in her eyes, Nalan Yanran hurriedly ran out of the Nalan estate.
"That person earlier was so imposing, riding a seventh-rank magical beast!"
In a nearby inn, Xiao Yan looked up with a burning gaze at the Amethyst Winged Lion King and the figures on its back as they passed by in the sky.
"One day, I will also soar across the sky like that!"
"Xiao Yan, that person earlier has very high cultivation and strong spiritual power. He probably noticed my presence."
"Such a genius would stand out even in the Central Plains!"
Yao Lao sighed from within the black ring.
Hearing that Yao Lao had been detected, Xiao Yan became anxious. "Will he harm you, Master?"
"If he intended to, he would have done so already."
Yao Lao reassured Xiao Yan. Against someone that powerful, no amount of caution would make a difference. Even with Yao Lao's spiritual strength, Xiao Yan wouldn't last a single move against him.
"Hmm? This spiritual wave..."
On the Amethyst Winged Lion King's back, Gu Fei briefly glanced at a certain spot in the city below before quickly withdrawing his gaze.
He had sensed an unusual spiritual wave. It was strong but also seemed somewhat feeble.
"Probably just some wandering spirit... no need to pay attention."
Gu Fei didn't dwell on it. Following Jia Xing Tian's lead, they soon arrived at the palace.
Along the way, Jia Xing Tian sent a message to Yao Ye, informing her that Young Master Gu Fei had arrived. Yao Ye was thrilled by the news and immediately prepared a banquet of the highest order to welcome Gu Fei.
By the time Gu Fei reached the palace, an exquisite and luxurious banquet was already laid out. Even Gu Fei couldn't help but marvel at the efficiency of the royal family.
"Young Master Gu Fei, please be seated. Everyone, please take your seats."
Jia Xing Tian invited them to sit, and the Crown Princess Yao Ye also joined them. Jia Xing Tian was momentarily taken aback when he saw Yao Ye. In just a few minutes, she had changed out of her armor and into a magnificent gown.
Yao Ye's tall figure was perfectly accentuated by the dress, but she still fell short compared to Cai Lin. Yao Ye knew this well, and so her gaze at her was filled with envy.
As someone with experience, Cai Lin could easily guess what was on Yao Ye's mind just by looking at her expression.
Midway through the banquet, Jia Xing Tian spoke up, "Young Master Gu Fei, you suddenly came to the capital. There must be something you need?"
"There is indeed something," Gu Fei replied without hiding his intentions.
"Please speak freely. To be of service to you, I would go through fire and water without hesitation."
Whether for the sake of the Jia Ma Empire or the royal family, Jia Xing Tian felt it necessary to build a connection with this mysterious and extraordinary figure before him. If Gu Fei really needed something from him, it would be an excellent opportunity to earn a favor. A favor from a super-strong individual like him was worth its weight in gold!
"You should know this person, the Queen of the Snake-People Tribe, Medusa."
Gu Fei pointed to Cai Lin beside him.
"Queen Medusa, your grace has only increased with time. I am in awe!" Jia Xing Tian clasped his hands in respect towards her.
"It's like this: The Tager Desert is extremely dry and its environment is no longer suitable for the Snake-People Tribe to live in. So, I would like to request permission for the Snake-People Tribe to migrate to the Eastern Magical Beast Mountain Range through the Jia Ma Empire, hoping that the empire's military won't obstruct us," Cai Lin stated her request directly.
"Simply passing through..."
Jia Xing Tian glanced at Gu Fei and Cai Lin. With their strength, borrowing a passage wasn't even necessary. Overthrowing the entire Jia Ma Empire wouldn't be difficult for them. The fact that they were willing to discuss the matter was already a show of respect.
Helping Queen Medusa in this matter would also mean gaining the favor of both her and Gu Fei, which would be a significant boon for the royal family.
"Of course, the Jia Ma Empire will not obstruct the Snake-People Tribe's migration!"
Upon realizing this, Jia Xing Tian immediately agreed, and Cai Lin visibly relaxed.
"While our empire agrees, I'm concerned about the other nearby empires..." Jia Xing Tian voiced his worry, knowing that the surrounding empires and the Snake-People Tribe had been enemies for generations and would not sit idly by as another race grew stronger.
"I will take care of them."
"You don't need to worry about that; just issue the orders to the border troops," Gu Fei said confidently.
