Chapter 309
Although the Wasteland was notoriously barren and its surface resources were far inferior to the Profound Domain, its area was also incomparably vast. To go from the Fire Kingdom to the hinterland of the Shi Kingdom, even if the two countries were adjacent, it still required avian species of the ancient remnant level, and it would take many days of flying to arrive.
This time, Wu Xian didn't need to avoid the pursuit of Mount Bu Lao, so he didn't choose to use the supernatural power of shrinking the ground into an inch to hurry. He just randomly captured an ancient remnant with the bloodline of the Golden-Winged Great Peng somewhere in the Great Wilderness, and then rode it, leisurely flying toward the direction of the Shi Kingdom.
By the way, the original means of transport, the Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow, had already sacrificed itself gloriously. With its dying body, it forcibly erupted the already very unstable Divine Flame in its body, and finally perished together with more than a dozen Qin clan powerhouses, including the Venerable named Qin Zhan.
This great act of sacrificing oneself and loyally protecting the master was truly moving, making Wu Xian feel a bit touched, and he observed a full second of silence for the Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow.
Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow: Are you kidding me! Did you hear that? I said are you kidding me!!
In short, after solving the problem of the means of transport, Wu Xian took the Shi Ziling couple and Qin Hao, who finally recognized reality and stopped crying, and flew in the Great Wilderness for about ten days, finally approaching the destination of this trip.
"A-Ning, we are finally back."
Stepping on the back of the Peng bird in the high sky, Shi Ziling looked at the familiar yet strange scenery in the distance and couldn't help but let out a complex sigh.
That was a giant city, magnificent and incomparable, built of one piece of green crystal stone after another, hundreds of feet high. And the surface of the wall was also engraved with endless runes, as if one big star after another were rotating, shining brightly, like an immortal heavenly palace, with a majestic momentum.
At the same time, inside and outside the giant city, there were teams of soldiers patrolling, disciplined, fully equipped, with sharp weapons, flashing cold metallic luster, as if bursts of murderous aura were permeating.
This was the imperial capital of the Shi Kingdom. Its defense was not inferior to the Fire Kingdom at all. Inside, there were many experts, led by some powerful generals to guard it, making this place as solid as a rock. Especially after opening the city's array patterns, the entire imperial capital would be shrouded in runes, and even a Divine Flame Realm powerhouse would find it difficult to conquer it in a short time.
"Ang————!!"
At this time, a sharp bird cry came from the sky, and the huge wind pressure whistled down, instantly attracting the attention of the soldiers on the city wall.
They were first surprised, and after discovering that the owner of the cry seemed to be a powerful ancient remnant, they immediately reacted, while passing the news into the city, they stood ready, preparing for battle.
Wu Xian had seen a similar scene once in the Fire Kingdom, but the degree was not as exaggerated as the last time.
It was understandable; after all, the Peng bird under his feet was just an ordinary ancient remnant. Whether it was cultivation or body size, it was far from as terrifying as the Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow, so the alert level of the Shi Kingdom naturally had to be lowered a bit.
Thinking this, Wu Xian raised his foot and stepped on the bird's head, signaling it to land in front of the city, and then took the Shi Ziling family of three and walked toward the city gate arrogantly.
After seeing this scene, the city guards, who were facing a great enemy, were shocked.
Just now, they were far away and couldn't see clearly, but now that they were close, they could all see the true body of this ancient remnant and the terrifying aura it emitted. Everyone was terrified; this was a true overlord that would give even the ancestors of various families a headache.
Who is that man? He could actually tame such a powerful ancient remnant to be his mount. Could it be a big shot from some top force?
That's right, these people all misunderstood, thinking that Shi Ziling was the master of this ancient remnant, while Wu Xian and Qin Hao were his sons.
"Who... who are you? What do you want to do coming to the imperial capital?"
A colonel outside the city gathered his courage and stepped forward to ask.
His cultivation was not weak; he was already in the late stage of the Cave Heaven Realm, having opened five Cave Heavens. Usually, his aura was sharp, but at this moment, facing the mysterious Shi Ziling, his attitude softened involuntarily, and his voice was a bit trembling.
Pat!
His knees felt a slight pain. The young general looked down and saw the little boy walking at the very front, looking up at him, his delicate face full of displeasure.
"Hey! Why are you asking him? Can't you see that I am the one in charge?"
"Ah?!"
The young general was stunned, but subconsciously repeated the question just now: "Then... then who are you?"
"Me, Dugu Baitian."
Wu Xian raised his thumb and pointed at his nose, his eyes arrogant: "Notify the Wu Wang Fu and the Yu clan, I brought old friends to visit them. Get ready to sweep the couch and welcome us; otherwise, don't blame me for going crazy!"
"Du... Dugu Baitian?"
The young general read this name, and suddenly his pupils shrank, shocked: "You are the Demon Child! The Blood-Handed Demon Child of the Void God Realm!!"
"Hmm?"
Wu Xian raised his eyebrows slightly, and then a terrifying aura erupted from his body, like an ancient fierce beast appearing in the world, startling the group of well-trained soldiers to retreat repeatedly, their bodies trembling involuntarily.
Too terrifying! Is this the legendary Demon Child who suppressed the entire Cave Heaven secret realm with his own strength?
Just the aura naturally flowing out made their physical bodies feel like they were about to collapse, incomparably uncomfortable. Even some Princes might not have such ability. How strong is the Demon Child?
"Go! Enter the city with me!"
Wu Xian ignored everyone's shock, waved his hand at Shi Ziling behind him, and continued to walk into the city with an unbothered gait.
Until the four of them disappeared behind the city gate, behind the city wall above, a general from the Yu clan sat on the ground with a thud, pale-faced, and muttered to himself: "It's Shi Ziling, he is actually still alive, and that Demon Child, could it really be that child from back then."
"But, how could he be so powerful? Wasn't it said that he was only in the Cave Heaven Realm?"
"No! The visitor is not kind, must notify the Yu King, let the clan make preparations early!"
Shi Kingdom, Wu Wang Fu.
As a powerful competitor for the Human Emperor back then, although the Wu King failed in the end, he still had a status in the Shi Kingdom, was titled a super-grade Prince, and was as famous as the Zhan King.
And the mansion he lived in was naturally built in the core area of the Shi Kingdom, occupying a very vast area, with rows of halls, like a vast heavenly palace, located in the human world. The direct descendants were even counted by the hundreds, which was very prosperous.
In the deepest part of the Wu Wang Fu, a small altar lit up, and one letter after another disappeared.
At the same time, in a place of seclusion, an old man with golden light flowing all over his body was restrained, and he immediately said angrily: "Shi Li, Shi Yuan, what are you doing?"
"Fourth Brother, don't be impatient. You rest here for a while first, don't go out."
"You treat me like this, let me guess, it's Ziling who is back, right!"
The old man seemed to have thought of something, a look of grief and shame appearing on his face.
He was one of the clan elders of the Wu Wang Fu, ranked fourth, and had a very close relationship with Shi Hao's grandfather, the "Great Demon God," the fifteenth master. Back then, when Shi Hao's Supreme Bone was dug out, he also strongly demanded that Shi Yi's lineage pay the price.
However, back then, the Wu King intended to favor Shi Yi's lineage and ruthlessly suppressed him, so that after Shi Ziling returned to the Wu Wang Fu, he could only fight alone and ended up being banished.
Regarding this matter, the old man had been brooding over it for these years, living very painfully, so much so that his cultivation had regressed a bit, which was why he was easily ambushed by these two "brothers."
"Tell me! Is it Ziling who is back!"
The old man roared, the golden light on his body soaring, wanting to break free from the shackles.
"Fourth Brother, don't waste your energy. This is the restriction the Wu King planted for you back then. You couldn't break it before, and now you are old, it's even more impossible!"
Shi Li sneered, and then said sinisterly:
"Might as well tell you, Shi Ziling is indeed back, and he also brought back that child... although I don't want to admit it, that child is indeed very remarkable. He is worthy of being a natural Supreme Being. Even if the Supreme Bone was taken away, he is still dazzling and has made a great name for himself in the Void God Realm."
"Unfortunately, he shouldn't have appeared so early, and even more so, he shouldn't have appeared before our eyes."
"You bastards! What do you want to do again!!"
The old man's beard and hair were angry, roaring and shouting.
"Very simple, Little Fifteen hasn't returned for many years, he should be dead already. We elders can't bear to let him be lonely down there alone, so we are preparing to send Ziling and the others down to accompany him."
Beside him, an old man named Shi Yuan smiled kindly.
"After all, they are family, so they should be neat and tidy!"
