Chapter 137: The Old Man of the Shu Region! Murderous Intent!

It is just that Sima Qingtian and the others do not know that Shu City is not the final destination for Luo Shuiyan and her group, but merely a transit stop.

"We have been in the vehicle for four days already; I believe everyone is exhausted."

"Let us rest here for one day, and we will set off again tomorrow afternoon."

Regarding Luo Shuiyan's arrangement, none of them had any objections.

Especially Hu Xiaoxiao and Lin Xueer; their eyes were filled with joy.

This place possesses local customs and traditions completely different from Xi'an Ancient City.

Now that they had stepped off the vehicle, they all felt very curious.

Jiang Che was also constantly looking around; the city here is different from Xi'an.

After living a new life, he had been lying flat at home every day.

Now, experiencing the local customs and traditions of different regions is still very relaxing for the mind.

Subsequently, the four women, each with their own Spirit Beast, prepared to find a hotel in Shu City to stay in first.

They prepared to rest for a while before continuing their journey tomorrow.

However, due to their overly large size, Xiaoshan and Xiaohuo could only stay inside the Beast Taming Space.

After all, this is a city of the Human Race, and with people coming and going in great density, it is not the Xi'an Ancient City they were previously familiar with.

For behemoths that could easily spread their wings to over ten meters, it would truly be too conspicuous to parade through the streets.

Jiang Che was held in Luo Shuiyan's arms, while Cailin had shrunk her form to be very slender and hid inside Yi Zimeng's sleeve.

The silver eagle was also being held by Lin Xueer.

As for Dandan, because it has not grown up yet, it was perched on Xue'er's shoulder.

As for Little Tiger and Xiao Hei, it was absolutely impossible to expect Hu Xiaoxiao to carry them.

It would already be quite something if Hu Xiaoxiao did not ride on top of Little Tiger.

Among the group, Hu Xiaoxiao walked at the very front, while Xiao Hei and Little Tiger acted like bodyguards, clearing the path ahead.

Pedestrians on the road, seeing these two fierce Spirit Beasts, moved to the side one after another.

Shu City can be called a very prosperous city; it is bustling with lights and colors, pedestrians are endless, and the sounds of hawking and noise are incessant.

This place is located in the south of the Da Jin and can be considered the most prosperous metropolis in the south of the Da Jin.

Because it is quite a distance from Xi'an Ancient City, the climates between the two cities are even slightly different.

This place is densely populated, with merchants coming and going constantly.

Moreover, three hundred years ago, this Shu City was once the capital of another country.

It covers a large area and is sufficient to accommodate a large population.

However, it was later annexed by the Da Jin and became a city in the south.

And because there are many mountain ranges around Shu City, and it was once an independent country, the cultural traditions here are somewhat different from other regions.

After conquering this country, the Great Jin Imperial Family has continuously employed a large number of people from the Shu Region as officials.

This is to stabilize the hearts of the people and consolidate their own rule.

However, even though three hundred years have passed, the Shu Region has still failed to fully integrate into the Da Jin, and the differences in cultural customs between them are very large.

Luo Shuiyan and the others discovered as soon as they got off the vehicle that even the clothing worn by the residents of this Shu Region was slightly different from theirs.

However, this actually further promoted the interaction between merchants.

"Someone is watching us in the shadows; their strength should be at the same level as the ancestor of the Yin Family, most likely at the Martial Venerable Peak Realm!"

While the four of them, including Luo Shuiyan, were still looking for a hotel to stay in, Jiang Che's Holographic Perspective discovered an uninvited guest.

At this moment, above the void, a mysterious old man appeared.

His hair was white and gray, and his attire looked quite luxurious.

His white robe fluttered in the wind, his bearing was quite extraordinary, and every gesture carried the air of someone in a high position.

Clearly, this person's status is not low; he is someone who has lived in a high position for a long time.

Jiang Che described the demeanor and appearance of this person to Luo Shuiyan, and Luo Shuiyan immediately became thoughtful.

Subsequently, she raised her eyebrows slightly, seemingly having guessed the other party's identity. After hearing Jiang Che's warning, the group did not have much emotional fluctuation.

They are no longer the freshmen they were in their first year; their mentalities have become much more steady and mature than before.

All four of them very skillfully continued their journey, shopping as usual, stopping and going along the way, as if they had not discovered the other party at all.

Until the four of them found a hotel.

After entering the hotel room, Yi Zimeng frowned slightly and asked: "Who exactly was that person who kept spying on us in the dark just now?"

"We have only just arrived in Shu City, and we are already being targeted by an unknown powerhouse?"

"We are all Imperial Rank Beast Tamers now, yet we could not detect them at all."

"This person's strength must be extremely high; I wonder what their intentions are..."

Arriving in this strange city and being targeted by a mysterious powerhouse.

Yi Zimeng's personality is naturally cautious and mature, and now that she has become the Head of the Family of the Yin Family, Yi Zimeng considers more things.

At this moment, she could not help but suspect the identity of this person.

"Don't worry, it's fine. Anyway, we are only staying in this Shu City for one night, and we will leave tomorrow."

"Perhaps that is just a powerhouse of Shu City who is a bit curious about us; everyone need not take it to heart."

Luo Shuiyan was very relaxed at this time and even comforted the others.

Because from Jiang Che's description just now, she guessed the identity of this person.

She is very familiar with this person; that old man is named Zhang Kai, and he is a person from the Shu Kingdom.

However, after the Shu Kingdom was destroyed, Zhang Kai had no choice but to submit to the Great Jin Imperial Family for some reason.

And now, he is the current City Lord of Shu City.

In her past life, Luo Shuiyan consolidated the forces of the Human Race to establish the First Central Empire, and this man was one of her top generals.

"Being watched wherever I go, always being passive—this time, I'm going to watch them too!"

Although Luo Shuiyan said it was nothing, Jiang Che had worked up a bit of a temper.

Being treated like this time and again, he could not swallow this insult.

It is impolite not to reciprocate, so he prepared to go out and conduct some counter-surveillance.

Through his accumulation over these years, the level of Jiang Che's Kirin Bloodline had already reached sixty-five percent!

Furthermore, he had mastered an extremely powerful stealth technique.

Jiang Che estimated that unless it was one of those legendary powerhouses of the Emperor Realm,

otherwise, it would be impossible for ordinary people to discover him while he was in hiding.

After flying out of the hotel, Jiang Che began searching the surroundings.

As his realm continuously broke through, his Holographic Perspective had already expanded to a range of over ten kilometers in radius.

For the current Jiang Che, wanting to find someone was not a difficult task at all.

Through his Holographic Perspective, Jiang Che discovered that Zhang Kai was currently located in the reception hall of the Chengzhou Prefecture, sitting right in the center.

And below his seat were four other people, each with an extraordinary aura.

"City Lord, I presume you must have seen those four little girls, including Luo Shuiyan, today, right?"

One of the middle-aged men looked at Zhang Kai and asked.

"Mm, I observed them from afar; this young woman is indeed quite remarkable!"

Zhang Kai nodded; he thought very highly of Luo Shuiyan in his heart.

After watching Luo Shuiyan's speech video, Zhang Kai was even more full of praise for her lofty ambitions.

In this day and age, among young Beast Tamers, it is truly rare to find someone with such ambition and vision as Luo Shuiyan.

"This young woman is indeed extraordinary, but she doesn't understand the rules."

"The Crown Prince's meaning is that he hopes you, City Lord, can make her stay in the Shu Region forever..."
