Chapter 88: Arrival in the Imperial Capital
Chapter 88: Arrival in the Imperial Capital
A pair of jade arms wrapped around Su Yun.
Su Yun was taken aback and turned his head to look at the figure behind him.
"What were you thinking just now, Brother?" Xiao Yi Xian's eyes were watery, with a hint of shyness, as she stared straight at Su Yun.
Su Yun felt warm in his heart; Xian'er was becoming more and more considerate.
Turning around, Su Yun embraced Xiao Yi Xian, their cheeks rubbing against each other.
On the side, Hai Bodong sighed and took Qing Lin, walking aside.
"Kids shouldn't watch this." Hai Bodong couldn't help but turn his head to look, seeing the two of them hugging each other.
Xian'er Sister and the Young Master were acting coy.
A blush flashed across Qing Lin's face, and she followed Hai Bodong to admire the scenery.
The gentle breeze blew, and Hai Bodong looked towards the direction of the Tagore Desert.
...
Xiao Lan's flying speed was not too fast; they rested in some cities along the way.
Hai Bodong and Su Yun didn't mind, but Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin couldn't go without eating, sleeping, and resting for several days.
Several days later, the four finally arrived in the Imperial Capital.
Hai Bodong instructed Xiao Lan not to stop at the city gate but to fly directly to the Miteer family.
The capital prohibited private flying beasts from flying in the sky, but this rule only applied to people without much background.
Hai Bodong, as one of the top ten powerhouses of the previous generation of the Jia Ma Empire, sneered at these rules.
Su Yun wanted to keep a low profile, but considering what he had to do next, which would probably make him famous throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire, he didn't say anything.
Moreover, with his current strength and with Hai Bodong by his side, there was no need to be too low-key.
Xiao Lan flew to the gate of the Miteer family, immediately attracting the attention of the guards.
"Who goes there!"
Two guards looked wary, staring at the group.
Hai Bodong leaped off Xiao Lan and landed on the ground.
Looking at the vigilant guards, a smile appeared on his face.
Vigilance was a good thing, indicating that Miteer Tengshan, that waste, had managed the Miteer family well.
Su Yun then successively carried Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin down from Xiao Lan's back, looking at Hai Bodong with a smile.
"Old Hai, it's been decades since you came back. I'm afraid there aren't many people in the Imperial Capital who recognize you anymore."
Hai Bodong snorted coldly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with Su Yun's teasing.
This kid, his tongue was as sharp as his talent.
Hai Bodong ignored the two guards, and his cold air permeated his body, condensing into a pair of Dou Qi wings behind him!
Dou King powerhouse!
A hint of shock flashed in the guards' eyes, and their legs trembled.
If Su Yun knew what they were thinking, he would definitely laugh at Hai Bodong again.
Look, the mighty Ice Emperor Hai Bodong was mistaken for a Dou King.
Hai Bodong ignored the guards, and his aura suddenly rose, gathering his Dou Qi at his throat.
"Miteer Tengshan, come out to me!"
Hai Bodong released his entire aura, not only the Miteer family, but even the entire Imperial Capital's powerhouses could sense it.
Su Yun smiled faintly; it was obvious that Old Hai was provoked by his words just now.
This act was a declaration to the entire Jia Ma Empire that this former Emperor-ranked Dou was back!
Just as Su Yun expected, several powerful auras sensed Hai Bodong's outburst and rushed over here.
After a short while, a figure dashed out from the Miteer family.
It was an old man with graying hair, a face marked with age, and a faint aura of authority.
The old man's expression was excited, and his hands couldn't help but tremble as he looked at Hai Bodong.
"Old Hai, is that you?"
"Hmph, what? Haven't seen me in decades and don't recognize me anymore?"
Chapter 89: Arrival in the Imperial Capital (Second Update!)
Master Hai crossed his arms, visibly displeased.
"H-How could I not recognize you, even if you turned to ashes, I, Tengshan, would still recognize you."
"Pfft."
Qing Lin, standing beside Su Yun, couldn't help but burst into laughter.
In an instant, all eyes in the courtyard focused on her.
Qing Lin covered her mouth, her small melon-seed face turning as red as a ripe apple, hiding behind Su Yun.
Su Yun gently patted Qing Lin's head with his large hand, a smile appearing on his face.
"Master Hai, don't argue with the kids. Qing Lin didn't mean it."
This Miteer Tengshan was quite interesting, but he was probably in for some bad luck.
Master Hai's face turned ashen, and he glared fiercely at Qing Lin.
This girl, I treat her so well, and yet she still...
This old man was obviously Miteer Tengshan.
Miteer Tengshan's smile turned bitter, realizing his mistake.
"Master Hai..."
"Tengshan, it's been many years. I wonder how much progress you've made in your strength. Let's spar later."
Master Hai's expression was indifferent, his tone calm.
But anyone could sense the coldness in his words.
That girl Qing Lin has that kid to protect her, so I can't do anything to her, but can't I deal with you?
Miteer Tengshan's smile became even more bitter.
After Miteer Tengshan greeted the four and offered them hospitality, he was pulled away by Master Hai.
Soon after, two bursts of energy erupted, accompanied by screams and pleas for mercy.
"You dare to hide! You've gone too far!"
"Master Hai, ah... Have mercy, Master Hai!"
"I don't know when I turned to ashes, but if I don't turn you into ashes today, I'm not Master Hai!"
Su Yun stood in the courtyard, watching this ridiculous scene, unable to help but laugh.
These two were old friends who had known each other for many years, so the probability of them turning each other into ashes was low.
But this Miteer Tengshan happened to run into trouble.
Su Yun looked at the four figures on the rooftop, and through soul perception, he was able to discern their Dou Qi fluctuations.
Two Dou Emperors and two Dou Kings.
However, one of the Dou Kings seemed to have some physical issues.
Su Yun smiled inwardly and turned back into the house.
Master Hai looked at the battered Miteer Tengshan, flexed his wrist, and exhaled a sigh of relief.
Since he had recovered his strength, this was the first time he had felt so satisfied after a fight.
He slightly tilted his head and looked at the distant figures.
"Alright, since you're here, come over. Do I have to invite you?"
Master Hai crossed his arms, his expression unreadable.
At his words, the four figures on the rooftop, with their Dou Qi wings, arrived beside Master Hai and Miteer Tengshan in a few seconds.
"Ice Old Man, it's been decades since we last met, right?"
One of the old men smiled.
"Yeah, it's been decades. Why haven't you died yet?"
Master Hai replied nonchalantly.
"Hehe."
The old man didn't get angry when he heard this, just chuckled.
Obviously, he knew Master Hai's temperament very well.
This old man was the president of the Alchemist Guild of the Jia Ma Empire, a fifth-grade Alchemist named Fa Ma.
"Your mouth is as sharp as ever."
Fa Ma stroked his beard and said.
