Chapter 311: The Request
Yangzhou City was growing. At the gate, the guards looked majestic and ice cold. Outside of the city, in front of the gate, there were two Chi Xie armored horses looking at the sky and neighing.
Beside these two horses, there were two bronze statues, they looked alive. One of them was the creator of the Chi Xie armored horses, Liu Cang Lan.
Liu Cang Lan looked a bit strict with a soft touch. There was also a similar Qi around the statue. Surprisingly, on that statue, there was a Qi similar to Liu Cang Lan's Qi which made the statue even more lifelike.
The other statue was the representation of a young man. That young man looked calm, serene and handsome. That statue looked alive. His eyes were closed and he had a meaningful expression. Some arrogance was also emanating from the statue. That young man looked heroic, natural and unrestrained. That young man was the officer of the Chi Xie army, the Marquis of Yangzhou City, also known as the Chi Xie Marquis.
These two statues were commemorative monuments. They were monuments to the powerful commanders, as if Yangzhou City would always be protected by them.
Outside of the city, many people were paying homage to these statues. Liu Cang Lan the Divine Arrow was considered as a hero by many people. He was a hero who had nearly been killed by the Imperial Family. Life had been truly cruel to him.
This was not a good time to be a hero. Only those who had an incredible strength could scare their enemies away, especially if the enemy was the Imperial Family.
People in Yangzhou City were chatting and laughing. It seemed like they were all in a good mood.
After Lin Feng had become the Marquis of Yangzhou City, the city had dramatically increased in size. Majestic cultivation buildings had been erected across the city. For example, the entrance into the city also looked imposing, especially since all the guards were Chi Xie troops. Their watchful eyes like gods looking down on mortals.
At that moment, Yangzhou City had indubitably become an adequate place for a marquis to live, it had become a place of growing influence.
After the army of Chi Xie troops came to Yangzhou City, cultivation had become one of the core principles of the city. Therefore, people's cultivation level was also becoming better each day. They had all persistently started practicing cultivation. They also hoped that someday, they would be able to reach the sky, become a marquis and command people around them. That sort of culture and atmosphere attracted people from all the neighbouring regions, many people were moving to Yangzhou City each day.
"Eeee...." A gigantic eagle shrieked in the distance which made all the people, who had gathered in front of the city gate, gaze into the distance.
They only saw a black dot on the horizon. It was coming towards them at full speed. It looked clearer and clearer with each second.
"It's a ferocious beast!"
When the crowd saw the shape in the sky, their bodies went rigid. It was a ferocious beast and it was crying out. Sharp murderous lights were flashing though its eyes. It was releasing a bestial Qi. Its huge wings were moving in the air and each time they moved, they created a hurricane like wind. At the same time, in one breath, that beast could cross a distance of a thousand meters. It was a bird of prey.
