Chapter 865: Two Books of Saint Enlightenment (2)
Longzhou.
Currently, the Barbarian Race’s fiefdom was divided into four regions like the Great Chu Country.
The Miao Sect was assigned to Longzhou.
Xu Bai descended from the sky and slowly walked into the city gate.
When the soldiers guarding the city saw Xu Bai, they were all shocked. They rubbed their eyes hard as if they were seeing things. They could not believe it.
If there were some commoners who did not know Xu Bai, then as long as they were in the industry or working in the Great Chu Country, they would have a portrait of Xu Bai in their hands and knew what Xu Bai looked like.
As for why there was a portrait of him, it was actually very simple.
Great Chu was very big, but the interactions and collisions between people could not be reduced just because the place was big.
If they ran into each other one day and didn’t know what Xu Bai looked like, they would do something to offend Xu Bai. Not only would the gains not make up for the losses, but it would also bring about huge consequences.
Therefore, these were all necessary for a streamer.
Xu Bai nodded to the soldiers and raised his hand slightly to signal them not to disturb the people. Then, he walked in.
When the soldiers saw Xu Bai’s action, they knew that Xu Bai did not want to cause a commotion.
Therefore, none of them said anything and pretended not to see anything.
After entering Longzhou, Xu Bai felt a little emotional.
On both sides of the streets of Longzhou, there were stalls and vendors who were trying their best to sell their wares. All kinds of buildings looked brand new.
After all, it had just been repaired, so the buildings here were much newer. In just a short period of time, they had been restored so much that they could almost be considered as new.
He couldn’t help but sigh at the speed at which the construction of the new class was so fast that it was hard to imagine.
However, he only sighed for a short while. He did not stay any longer and walked in one of the directions.
After passing through one alley after another, the noise in Xu Bai’s ears gradually faded away, and a slightly luxurious mansion appeared in front of him.
The mansion was very large and imposing. Just from the surface, it already showed its luxury.
Not all the people from the Miao School had come. Just like the Academy, they had also sent many geniuses of the younger generation. This was enough to show that they cared about the things here.
To any faction, the younger generation was something that every faction was grooming and nurturing. Therefore, the Miao Sect was able to send all the geniuses of the younger generation here to show that they really wanted to develop here.
At the entrance of the mansion, there were two members of the Miao Cult standing guard. They were so bored that they yawned.
Not far away, footsteps could be heard.
The Miao Temple members guarding the door heard the sound of footsteps. The two of them looked at each other and looked in the direction of the sound.
At first, they thought that someone was passing by, or someone was looking for them.
In fact, they were right.
Someone was indeed looking for them, but when they saw who it was, they were stunned on the spot and their shoulders began to tremble.
A feeling called fear grew in his heart.
The two of them could not help but take a step back. They looked at the figure that was gradually enlarging not far away and felt panic in their hearts.
In the past, they had been through many battles and would not be flustered by some things. However, in their current situation, anyone who came would have the same expression as them.
There was no other reason. The person walking in front of him was tall. Although there was no weapon hanging on his waist and his hands were behind his back, he could still give people a sense of pressure.
This kind of pressure came from his heart and he couldn’t control it.
They wanted to run, but it seemed like there was no need to do so in the current situation. If this famous Prince Xu wanted to kill them, they could just blow on him. No matter how much they ran, they would not be able to escape.
At the thought of this, one of the guards stood out and cupped his hands at Xu Bai. He said respectfully,”This lowly one greets Prince Xu. May I know why Prince Xu has come here?”
Rules still had to be followed, and the procedures could not be simplified.
Xu Bai glanced at the guard and smiled.””Let me know. I’m here to look for you. There’s indeed something important. I want to see the person in charge here.”
“Yes, please wait a moment,” The guard didn’t say anything else. He cupped his hands and said this before turning around and entering the mansion.
After the time for half an incense stick to burn, the guard who entered hurriedly walked in. He opened the door and raised his hand to bow.”Please!”
Xu Bai nodded and followed behind the guard. The guard led him all the way to a very stylish room.
“Prince Xu, please wait here for a moment. Soon, the person in charge will come to look for you.”The guard said respectfully.
Xu Bai could see the sweat on the guard’s forehead. He knew where the sweat came from.
This guy seemed to be very afraid of him. If he stayed by his side for another minute, it would probably be a huge torture.
“When did I become so scary?”Xu Bai rubbed his chin and thought to himself, I remember that I’m quite an easy-going and refined person.”
On the side, the guard saw that Xu Bai did not speak. His head was lowered, but his face was covered in sweat and he kept trembling.
“Alright, you can leave first.” Xu Bai waved his hand in boredom.
The guard felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly ran away without any hesitation, as if he was followed by a ferocious beast.
Xu Bai didn’t care about him. He sat on his seat and poured himself a cup of tea. After taking two sips, the door was pushed open.
