Chapter 428 - 225: Invitation from the Di Feng Family
Even near the Teleportation Tower in the Capital City, the air was filled with the scent of blood. Though it seemed unbelievable, rebellion was not uncommon in the Capital City, which gathered nearly five million Transcendents.
There would always be a few impulsive ones attempting to stir up trouble during reforms.
"Ms. Tina, this is our guest, sorry to trouble you." Jia Guan politely said to the Red Dragon.
Tina glanced at Baiyi, a hint of amazement flickering in her eyes. After all, there was a time she had thought about taking Baiyi as a male companion.
But now she had no such thoughts. With a flap of her wings, a warm Power enveloped the two, bringing them onto her back.
Amidst the wary or fearful gazes of the surrounding people, the Red Dragon soared into the sky, flying eastward.
Looking down from above, many buildings were vacant, land was for sale, and much of the ground had been cleared, looking newer than other places.
Maneuvering around some Golden Level residences, they arrived at the territory of the Di Feng Family.
The Red Dragon did not land at the gate but charged directly into the No-fly Array. After a burst of light, she navigated unimpeded within this city within a city.
Yes, a city within a city. The territory of the Will Clan had a diameter of three kilometers, while the Di Feng Family’s territory stretched to eight kilometers, much larger than typical county towns.
At a glance, Baiyi saw many docking areas for airships, numerous Extraordinary Botanical Gardens, and quite a few Magic Beast Breeding Bases.
Baiyi recognized some of the plants and Magical Beasts and couldn’t remember how many times he lamented the wealth of a family owning the Soul Master’s Divine Artifact.
Legendary-level Materials, hard to find outside, were being farmed like wheat here, in large patches.
In the Golden Level Magic Beast park, the Magical Beasts were all chubby. He even saw some beasts gnawing on the leaves of Golden Level plants...
No wonder the proud Giant Dragon was willing to become a mount.
After a brief flight, the Giant Dragon brought Baiyi to an exceedingly luxurious palace, where attendants were bustling in and out, carrying all kinds of ingredients and Materials, appearing somewhat busy.
Diane and a somewhat disgruntled Yuan Tang were waiting at the door, seemingly to welcome him.
The Giant Dragon bowed, letting them down with warm Energy, then ascended, flying toward a small artificial volcano specially built for her.
"Baiyi, you’re finally here!"
Diane brightened up as she came forward, but compared to the past, she was a bit more reserved. She grabbed Baiyi’s hand, turned around, and said, "Come on, come on, the feast is about to start. It’s been a long time since I’ve had such a grand meal."
"Ahem..."
A light cough, tinged with discontent, sounded. Diane paused, instinctively let go, held Baiyi’s sleeve, and smiled ingratiatingly at Yuan Tang·Di Feng, then continued enthusiastically, "So many people are here today, I’ll introduce you later."
Diane, protected by her brother since childhood, still found him very intimidating. After all, if she acted up, her parents would just say a few words, but her brother could haul her to the study, bringing in four or five tutors for a whole day of study.
That kind of nightmare made her still reluctant to talk back to her brother even as an adult.
Baiyi smiled at Yuan Tang and followed Diane inside, speaking in low tones.
The battle outside Dongwu City had dispelled much animosity, including that of Yuan Tang·Di Feng, as after all, he found no one better than Helen.
