Chapter 597: On the Road

Speaking of strong people, Dio has already started to tremble. This guy was unlucky. When Bai Lang returned through the jade fish, it was rejected and fell into the Ten Thousand Mountains—well, not very far, probably in the Great Chu territory south of the Great Qin and Great Yan. This is also the land of the demon clan, where countless demon beasts and monsters live.

However, this is not a dead zone for humans—in this era, humans and demons have long lived together, it's just that most monsters don't like to live in the human world. And among these monsters living in the Ten Thousand Mountains, many are officials and soldiers in the Great Chu imperial court, serving and paying taxes.

Two-tenths of the successive prime ministers of the Great Chu imperial court were of monster origin, four-tenths of the generals were monsters, two-tenths of the concubines in the harem were monsters, and most of the princes and even the emperor had the blood of the demon clan. So it is not unreasonable for the Great Chu to be regarded as the "barbarians" of the south by other countries, it's just that the Great Chu is very strong...

And Dio fell into this. Although the cat has the instinct to sense which direction its owner is in and how far away, the demon beasts in this mountain are really not to be trifled with—compared to these demon beasts, the top ten dangerous magical creatures in Harry Potter are simply harmless little pigs.

Dio has also opened its wisdom. In the Ten Thousand Mountains, it is of course considered a type of demon beast, and its status is much higher than that of ordinary wild beasts, but it is not as good as a monster that has transformed. Its magic power can also be called a type of demon power. This transformation process is a bit painful, and its combat power is only left with pure physical combat ability.

Fortunately, the physical combat power of the manticore Dio, who has restored its original appearance, is not bad, so it fought and was beaten all the way, and still ran out of the Ten Thousand Mountains to find Bai Lang.

"Restore your original appearance, Dio." Bai Lang said, and put Dio on the ground. The original small yellow cat quickly became larger, its mane exploded from its neck, and soon grew into a manticore as big as a small house. Its bat wings spread out, reflecting the sunlight, and the scorpion tail also clicked and moved.

Dio learned to breathe, and what it breathed out was a misty liquid rich in fire poison. Bai Lang looked at the corroded ground. "This thing can only deal with opponents weaker than you. Innate experts are barely useless, and inner scene grandmasters will kill you in one blow. Forget it, you'd better be my mount, a job with a bright future."

The desperate things can be given to that hyena, anyway, this guy... Now Bai Lang is an inner scene grandmaster, so he naturally sees at a glance that if this thing is hit by an inner scene grandmaster, I'm afraid it will be finished and cannot be revived. The things given to him by that big shot are also considered good, but they are not very strong in this world.

Dio's appearance is still quite majestic, and it quite suits the aesthetics of the Great Qin people. At least after the princess's eunuch reported it, even the Qin Emperor came to see Dio with great interest—in the Central Plains, even in the Great Chu territory, lions are extremely rare. The few lions were tributes from the West. In recent years, wars have been frequent, and the tribute routes have been intermittent, so no one has sent lions for many years.

The funny thing is that Bai Lang heard that there are a few "lions" among the monsters born in the Ten Thousand Mountains, but this lion is not that lion. The Great Chu lions in the picture book Bai Lang saw are actually the same as the stone lions he saw at the door, completely different from the lion head of Dio. The only similarity is probably that they have a mane.

In short, the pet is back. Bai Lang welcomed his wedding in a good mood—the scale was very grand, and the wedding might have to be held for three days.

Now Bai Lang was considered a Commandant of the Imperial Son-in-law, as well as some sort of Duke, and the official robe on his body featured a lion on the chest—originally, it should have had dragon or python motifs as befitted a super-rank official and noble, but Bai Lang had declined them. Princess Mingyue was quite intelligent and refined; in short, Bai Lang could be said to have spent a wonderful half-month here.

"I still want to continue to roam the world. Are you staying here or coming with me?" Bai Lang said to his wife. "Since I married you, we are naturally one body. Wherever you go, I will go." The princess spoke very seriously. "Oh, it's good that the jade fish still has some time. It's okay to take her with me—perhaps this is what she wants."

The Great Qin imperial court gave many treasures, including a cloud carriage. Although this thing is called a cloud carriage, it cannot fly in fact, but it walks on mountains and rivers as if on flat ground, and does not need the mules and horses in front to travel a hundred miles a day—the speed is a bit slow, but although this cloud carriage is as big as a four-wheeled carriage, it is a palace complex inside, and there is a large garden.

Bai Lang has seen that there are at least a thousand acres of land inside, and there are many maids who can serve the couple. Bai Lang has never had such wealth. Although he had similar treasures in the Harry Potter world, this thing was already unusable when it arrived in this world. Conversely, if this thing goes to other worlds, it might be usable.

When it was time to leave, he left; the Qin Emperor naturally understood this, and it was normal for his daughter to go with her husband—after all, he had already gained the upper hand, having nearly pulled one of the few Inner Scene Grandmasters in the world who had no fixed allegiance over to his side. He figured other countries would not be shameless enough to marry off another princess... otherwise, what would they do? Abdicate?

Bai Lang is not impatient to stay in the carriage. He sits on the roof of the carriage and looks around. The feeling this carriage gives him is similar to the car in his previous life, the only difference is that there is no driver—it moves forward, backward, and turns according to his heart. This thing has long been branded with Bai Lang's divine sense, and beside Bai Lang are the lying Dio and the hyena—these two guys turned into orange-yellow kittens and earth-yellow puppies, also lazily looking at the surroundings on the swaying carriage roof.

There were rest stations along the Great Qin imperial highways where passing travelers and officials could rest, and soldiers were stationed there to patrol the roads and kill any bandits who dared to block the way and rob people. However, if there were bandits in the vast mountains, they could generally only be cleared out periodically.

With the sharpness of the Great Qin's military front, even if they patrol every three or five days, there are still fierce bandits who will take the opportunity to make a vote on the road. Now what Bai Lang met is such a guy.

"Sure enough, they are daring enough to rob the road. They are actually led by an innate expert, and the martial arts of the others are not low." Bai Lang muttered while looking at the dozen or so bandits who were approaching rapidly. They had just made a vote further ahead, intercepted and killed a caravan, and still had time to make a vote before the patrolling soldiers arrived.

So they saw Bai Lang's cloud carriage—this is definitely a good thing, a carriage that can move forward on its own without horses or strange beasts. Although it doesn't look big, it must be very valuable. Of course, people who can have this carriage must not be easy to mess with, but wealth is sought in danger. It is not impossible to make a vote if there is an innate expert.
