After all, it is a newly opened battlefield, just like when South Celestial City moved to Frost Wind Valley, a large number of demon clan warriors increased in the city. Once Wu An City was established, it also attracted many cultivators to come. Many sect monks or small country cultivators who have ventured into The Gate of All Demons would choose Wu An City as their priority.
For instance—
This high-speed flying cloud chariot in front of us.
In the field of vision, it almost just flashed by, and then it had already flown close, landing outside this newly built grand human city.
The extremely luxurious cloud chariot disappeared, and two figures dressed in white, like fairies descending to the mortal world, walked down.
The man walking in the front was dashing and unrestrained, exuding an ethereal presence. In his bright eyes, there was also an undeniable aura.
The woman walking behind him had a graceful figure, her face covered with a thin veil, and with every movement, seemed to be enveloped in immortal qi. Even though her face was hidden, it was enough to spark endless imagination.
What surprised the passing cultivators even more was that Wenren Shen, the Qi Imperial Court Adviser responsible for the entire Wunan Battlefield, actually walked out of the city gate to personally welcome these two.
Who are these two distinguished individuals?
Wenren Shen proactively saluted, "Separated for many years, Ye True Man, your elegance remains unchanged! Yun Country’s affairs are busy, how come you are here in person today?"
Ye Lingxiao smiled and waved his hand: "Yun Country’s affairs have long ceased to trouble me. Lingxiao Pavilion is small and inconsequential, causing no worry. Well, my little daughter has been cultivating in her boudoir for too long, lacking in experience, and has yet to witness the demon clan. So I specially brought her to the Monster Realm for a look. I heard that Great Qi’s God of War opened a new battlefield with one punch through Frost Wind Valley, and I turned back midway to admire the Absolute Summit scenery."
Wenren Shen’s enthusiasm has its reasons.
Firstly, he and Ye Lingxiao had interacted in the past, making them barely acquaintances. Secondly, since Ye Lingxiao came to Marquis Wu’an, if racial war broke out, as a member of the human race, how could he not lend a hand?
The combat prowess of a True Man of the Age can be applied in too many scenarios on the battlefield!
As the visitor is a guest, if he, Wenren Shen, cannot make the most of him, and lets the guest leave unfulfilled, how could he be worthy of being Governor of the Qi Empire’s cities in the Monster Realm?
That’s why he rushed out of the city gate to welcome them, taking the initiative to salute with the dignity of an Imperial Court Adviser. If he didn’t think it too pretentious, he had even planned to come barefoot... Would the guest not be moved to fight for Great Qi at the sight of a barefoot winter greeting?
"Is this your beloved daughter?" Wenren Shen looked at the cool and elegant woman behind Ye Lingxiao, and exclaimed, "What immortal beauty! Ye Lingxiao’s looks already topped the world in his youth, who knew his daughter’s beauty would surpass her father’s!"
Praising Ye Lingxiao, he could still maintain composure, but praising his daughter made him break into a wide grin, losing any trace of immortal demeanor. With nothing to be modest about, he waved directly: "Qingyu, come here, this is Minister Wenren, a big figure in Qi Country, an old friend of your dad. Come and pay your respects."
Before leaving, he merely mentioned a "familiar old guy," but now he turned into an "old friend."
At that time, Ye Qingyu was gazing at the plaque on the city gate, lost in thought. Called back to her senses by Ye Lingxiao, she gracefully bowed, "Qingyu greets Uncle."
"Good, good." Wenren Shen was genuinely moved and was already planning what kind of gift to prepare for their meeting.
He must entertain this niece-in-law well.
With his daughter brought into the city, could the father not fight desperately on the battlefield?
He keenly noticed Ye Qingyu’s gaze just now and kindly explained, "This name is in commemoration of Marquis Wu’an’s bloody battle at Frost Wind Valley."
Then he saw that pair of beautiful moonlit creek-like eyes, without any warning, begin to shed tears.
