Outside Tianfeng, on a carriage heading towards the Yunjing Empire, Yin Tianping closed his eyes slightly and leaned on the chair with his eyes closed to rest.
Beside him, Chen Yujiao huddled like a frightened rabbit, trembling.
Her brother died, and even the gold and jade breast shield she wanted was taken away by Ye Kun. She had lost her temper before, but she didn't want to offend the already angry Yin Tianping. How could she dare to do more at this time? say what.
"grown ups!"
A voice came from outside the car, and immediately, a figure flashed into the car.
"My lord, Ye Kun chose the Beast Control Sect."
"oh?"
Yin Tianping's closed eyes suddenly opened, and a cold light flashed as sharp as a blade. He subconsciously reached out to touch the jade ring on his thumb. The entire carriage was filled with a sense of chilling!
"My lord, either we are on our way"
"No need!" Yin Tianping immediately closed his eyes and said indifferently: "Zhao Jinglun and Xiong Qianjun are not fools. If they take action forcefully, not only will they not be able to hurt Ye Kun, but they will be in trouble again."
After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Yin Tianping glanced at the trembling Chen Yujiao beside him, then smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, I won't just let that kid who dares to disobey me go. Now my brother seems to be locked up to death." Guan, and that kid is not worthy of bothering my elder brother to take action. You should inform Qian Heng. Since he chose the Beast Control Sect, this matter should be left to the people within the Beast Control Sect."
"And" Yin Tianping sighed deeply and took out a piece of iron from the pouch on his waist.
This piece of iron looks like an ordinary piece of iron, but there is a map printed on it - it is exactly the same as the star iron fragment in Ye Kun's hand! !
"Now we have more important things to do!"
¡¡
With the end of the martial arts tournament of various countries, all the major forces left Wanzhu Kingdom one after another. As for Ye Kun and other monks who joined the Southern Third Sect, they would not go back to their respective countries, but would go to Chiyan with the three elders of the Southern Third Sect. County, joined the Southern Three Sects.
However, the Ye family is not too worried about the people from Wanzhu Kingdom. This time he won the first place in the martial arts competition of various countries. Not only Tianqing Kingdom, but even Qi Kingdom recognized the situation and abandoned their original allies. Tianfeng Kingdom has good relations with the new force Wanzhu Kingdom. Several powerful countries left Tianfeng Kingdom together, giving Tianfeng Kingdom some courage and not daring to make a sneak attack halfway.
What's more, Zhao Jinglun will stay in Tianfeng Kingdom for a period of time to fully integrate all the information about this martial arts meeting. This period of time is enough for the Ye family to return to Wanzhu Kingdom safely.
As for returning to Wanzhu Kingdom, Tianfeng Kingdom probably won't dare to make things too difficult for a short period of time. For them, not only will their face be lost in this martial arts meeting of various countries, but also because they support Yin Tianping's arrest of Ye Kunnao. Foreigners are not human beings. If troops are sent to the Wanzhu Kingdom at this time, neither the Tianqing Kingdom nor the Qi Kingdom will sit idly by. If Chen Shanglong cannot even see this clearly, he is not worthy of being called the leader of the Tianfeng Kingdom.
What he needs to worry about most now is himself!
On the official road, a convoy moved forward slowly. In this team, in addition to Xiong Qianjun and his entourage, there were ten monks from the Twenty Southern Nations. Among them, in addition to Ye Kun and other four top ten, there were also There were six other people, but Xiong Qianjun accepted them because they saw good talent. Most of them were monks from the Tianqing Kingdom, and Wu Gang was among them.
After a simple exchange, everyone quickly became familiar with each other. Even Tie Muhan had a brief conversation with Ye Kun. After all, they will all be brothers. They are both from the twenty southern countries, so they naturally have to look after each other.
Ye Kun rode a horse and walked side by side with Wu Hui and others, following Xiong Qianjun's carriage, but his eyes were looking at the Yunjing Empire in the distance.
Yin Tianping probably wouldn't let him go easily, but instead of making Ye Kun feel scared or intimidated, it actually made Ye Kun's blood boil!
Yunjing Empire, the place he has always longed for!
Only when you are recognized here can you be called a strong person!
He, Ye Kun, is here!
¡¡
The southernmost part of the Yunjing Empire, the junction of Chiyan County and the twenty southern countries.
The north-south Fengjue Mountains and the east-west Shangyun Peak meet here. The two huge mountain ranges meander and intersect, with their backs connecting the sky and the earth. The birds are exhausted, but in the center of the intersection of the two sides, there is a straight canyon. .
On both sides of the canyon, the Qianren cliffs are as smooth as a mirror. Standing on the cliff, you can only see a sliver of sky when you look up!
A line of sky, this is the name of the canyon here.
And right at the mouth of this canyon, a huge pass with a height of several hundred feet lies across it.
Blade Pass!
This is the only channel connecting the twenty southern countries and southern Jingzhou!
When Ye Kun and others came to the Blade Pass, many people opened their mouths when they looked at the city wall hundreds of feet high. They were already so shocked by the majestic pass in front of them!
Is this really something that can be built by manpower?
Ye Kun was also among the shocked crowd. After all, it was his first time here. But unlike the people around him, when he saw the majestic pass in front of him, he was more sure of his previous thoughts - the Yunjing Empire was here. A pass was set up here to guard against the large number of alien monsters that would emerge from the Kyushu barrier deep in the Jingtie Bamboo Forest when it was damaged!
The twenty southern countries are just outposts that provide the Yunjing Empire with time to react!
Ye Kun narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he knew that the Yunjing Empire had its reasons for doing this, as a member of the Wanzhu Kingdom, Ye Kun still couldn't control the anger in his chest!
"Brother Ye, what's wrong?"
A voice suddenly rang in his ears, breaking Ye Kun out of his anger. Taking a deep breath, he gradually regained his composure, looked at Wu Hui beside him, smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, it's just that he was suppressed by this male pass." Living."
Immediately, as if to cover up his previous gaffe, Ye Kun asked curiously: "Brother Wu, have you been here before? Tell me about it. I'm not afraid of Brother Wu's jokes. This is my first time leaving the twenty southern countries."
"I've been here before."
The doubts in Wu Hui's eyes flashed away. Ye Kun's expression was definitely not one of shock, but he didn't point it out and immediately introduced the situation in Chiyan County to Ye Kun.
Chiyan County is one of the nine major counties in the Yunjing Empire, and it is also the weakest among the nine major counties in the Yunjing Empire. It lags far behind other counties in terms of population and area, but even so, The area of ??Chiyan County is almost as large as one and a half of the Southern Twenty Kingdoms, and its population is ten times that of the Southern Twenty Kingdoms, with a population of nearly ten million.
The fact that just one of the weakest counties has such strength shows how powerful the Yunjing Empire is.
¡°Perhaps it was clear that Ye Kun knew almost nothing about the Yunjing Empire, so Wu Hui spoke in great detail, and focused on introducing the divisions of the major forces in Chiyan County to Ye Kun.
The first is the three southern sects, Shangyunge, Withered Wood Sect, and Beast Control Sect. Although the three major sects are close to the holy land in the minds of the twenty southern countries, they are only three of the forces in Chiyan County.
In addition to the three southern sects, there are three other major forces in Chiyan County - the Prince's Palace, the wealthy Yin family, and the Tiandu Merchant Alliance.
These six major forces jointly maintain the balance and order of Chiyan County. The most powerful among them is undoubtedly the Prince's Mansion, which commands the entire 100,000 troops of Chiyan County and is the nominal master of Chiyan County.
The wealthy Yin family is the family that Yin Tianping comes from. This is also a force that Ye Kun needs to pay attention to. But now that he has joined the Beast Control Sect, even Yin Tianping does not dare to deal with him blatantly. After all, this It may provoke hostility between the two major forces.
As for the Tiandu Commercial Alliance, it is the most mysterious force among the six major forces. The Tiandu Commercial Alliance is composed of Yuyaofang, Yuqifang, Yudanfang, Yushufang and Tiandu Auction House. Its scope of influence is, It can be said to be the number one chamber of commerce in Jingzhou. It is said that there is a mysterious figure from the royal family of the Yunjing Empire behind it. Therefore, even those from the Tiandu Merchant Alliance would not dare to offend easily.
"Yaoyoufang?"
Ye Kun was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that the chamber of commerce where he sold the monster materials and gold stones, and bought the Ice Silkworm Armor and Feng Xinglu, turned out to be a member of the Tiandu Merchant Alliance!
Just when Ye Kun was about to ask, the convoy had already arrived below the Blade Pass. There were three city gates in the Blade Pass. The central gate was about fifty feet high, but it was not usually opened. On the left and right sides, there was a gate ten feet high. The two small doors that are more than ten feet high are usually open. At the city gate, there are two rows of soldiers with their heads wrapped in armor. There are some flame marks on the chests of these people. The most powerful military force in Chiyan County - the Chiyan Army.
Normally, if Ye Kun and others came by themselves, they would not only need to show their identity, but also pay a spirit stone to pass. However, this time the leader was Elder Xiong Qianjun of the Beast Control Sect. Naturally, there were no such obstacles and they could pass through the city gate. Along the long corridor, a deafening noise came like a tide.
This is the southernmost city in Chiyan County - Blade City.
This city seemed extremely noisy, and it was the gathering place for all the three religions and nine streams in Chiyan County. However, Ye Kun took a cursory look and found that there were a large number of Chiyan troops in this city, and it was a complete fortress!
"It seems that the Yunjing Empire's precautions are extremely good. Even if it is not clear when the Kyushu barrier will lose its effect, it has laid a heavy defense here.soldiers. "
Ye Kun glanced around, a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes, and then he let out a heavy breath.
Is this the Yunjing Empire?
In the streets and alleys, you can see pedestrians passing by everywhere. Even the hawkers on the streets all look full of energy. Obviously, even if these people are not congenital monks, they have acquired cultivation levels above the fourth level of bone strengthening. .
Many people even had their temples bulging high, and their eyes were shining brightly, showing that they were innately at level seven or above!
Walking slowly on the street, the team of Ye Kun and others naturally attracted the attention of many people, but even if these people were ordinary vendors, they looked at Ye Kun and other foundation-building monks with a hint of pride in their eyes.
This pride does not come from strength, but from a sense of superiority from the heart!
"Sure enough, as Ye Ying said, people in the Yunjing Empire basically look down on the twenty southern countries and treat us as barbarians."
Ye Kun smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he didn't feel too burdened. He knew very well that respect is not earned by others' charity, but by his own strength!
Temuhan and others, on the other hand, were not used to this gaze and glared back with ferocious gazes from time to time. However, this did not frighten the people around them. Many people even covered their mouths and snickered, whispering, "southern barbarians". The general vocabulary is endless.
Even under such gaze, the convoy did not stop at Blade City and headed northwest, where was the destination of Ye Kun and others - the Beast Control Sect!

I hesitated for a long time after writing this chapter. The original idea was to stay in Blade City for a while, and then some plot would happen, but I felt that this would drag out the plot a bit, and it was not the main plot, so I simply deleted a lot of changes and used this chapter. Introducing the major forces in Chiyan County, and writing about the attitude of the people of the Yunjing Empire towards the twenty southern countries, to illustrate and lay the groundwork.
After several revisions, I finally reduced it to 3,300 words, which I am quite satisfied with. Please give me a recommendation vote.
