Chapter 363: Bai Guang's Personal Charm
Peerless Medicine God · 第363章 白光的个人魅力
Even Ye Yuan was profoundly shaken by the majestic grandeur of the Central Royal City.
Viewed from afar, it resembled a primordial beast, exuding an aura that inspired awe and worship.
This was the sacred land for all martial artists of the Gale Realm!
Not because there was a city here, but because there was a—Wind Emperor!
A Boundless Realm expert was akin to a god in the Gale Realm!
Although Ye Yuan held no reverence for the Wind Emperor, he had to admit that before the Wind Emperor, he was nothing more than an ant.
As he neared the city gate, Ye Yuan quickly sensed something amiss.
The martial artists entering the city had actually formed a long line, stretching for several li.
Ye Yuan had excellent eyesight, and he noticed that someone seemed to be conducting checks at the city gate!
Ye Yuan also joined the line and quietly asked a martial artist, “Brother, this is my first time in the royal city. Has the inspection always been this strict? At this rate, we won’t get in even by nightfall!”
That martial artist grumbled, “Hey, don’t even mention it! It was never this strict before. So many people come and go in the royal city every day—checking each one would exhaust the city guards! But a couple of days ago, for some reason, it suddenly became strict. They said spies from another world had infiltrated. Isn’t that nonsense? For those of us who often enter and leave the city, how much time do we waste on this!”
The martial artist kept complaining, but Ye Yuan’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.
Spies from another world—wasn’t that referring to him?
Could it be… the Lan tribe?
Only the Lan tribe knew that he, the one who had slipped through the net, had entered the Hurricane Realm, so naturally only they would notify the royal city.
From this, it seemed that the news of Lan Bao’s death had already reached the Lan tribe; otherwise, they wouldn’t have gone to such trouble to specifically inform the royal city.
Since the royal city already knew he was coming, lining up to enter would be walking right into a trap.
Ye Yuan naturally wouldn't do something so foolish. He grumbled, "This line is so long, I won't get into the city even by tomorrow! Forget it, forget it. I wanted to see the royal city, but I'm not wasting time on this!"
With that, Ye Yuan turned and left.
Because the line was so long, many people complained and left like Ye Yuan, so he didn't attract any attention.
Ye Yuan slowly walked away from the royal city, feeling troubled.
With such strict checks, how was he supposed to enter the royal city?
Unfortunately, disguise was Ye Yuan's weakest skill; otherwise, he could have changed his appearance and believed even the Blue Tribe wouldn't recognize him.
But now his face was only slightly altered, and anyone sharp-eyed would recognize him at a glance. Ye Yuan naturally couldn't take that risk.
Just then, a carriage approached from afar, clearly belonging to a wealthy family's young lady returning from a trip.
Ye Yuan's mind turned, and a plan came to him!
He went to a secluded spot and released Bai Guang. Bai Guang clearly disliked being in the spatial artifact and always bounced around when let out.
Ye Yuan had no time to play with him. He grabbed him and instructed, "Bai Guang, now's the time for you to use your charm! In a moment, I'll enter the spatial artifact, and you'll carry me and jump into that carriage. Do whatever it takes to make the woman inside take you into the city, understand?"
Although Bai Guang couldn't speak, he was very intelligent. He understood everything Ye Yuan said and nodded his tiger head.
Afraid Bai Guang wouldn't try hard enough, Ye Yuan added, "Little one, my life is in your hands. If you mess this up, I won't have any sugar beans for you in the future!"
Sure enough, at Ye Yuan's words, Bai Guang shuddered.
The sugar beans Ye Yuan mentioned were naturally medicinal pills.
Ever since Bai Guang followed Ye Yuan, he had been eating cultivation pills like sugar beans, and no matter how many he ate, he could digest them.
Because of this, White Light's cultivation speed was astonishingly fast; he had already reached the late second stage and was on the verge of breaking through to the third stage!
Such cultivation speed was absolutely heaven-defying among demon beasts.
Thus, Ye Yuan's threat immediately made White Light snap to full attention.
Seeing that the carriage was about to enter the city, Ye Yuan dared not delay. He muttered incantations, and his figure instantly vanished, entering the spatial spirit artifact.
White Light carried the dust-sized spatial spirit artifact on him, transforming into a streak of light and darting out.
In the blink of an eye, White Light slipped through the carriage window lattice.
Ah!
Inside the carriage were two women. Seeing a ball of white light dart in, they couldn't help but scream in fright.
When they saw clearly that it was an extremely cute and adorable little cat, they instantly melted.
Just then, the carriage curtain was suddenly pulled aside, and a handsome man stuck his head in and asked, "Lingxue, are you alright?"
At this moment, Shangguan Lingxue had already hidden White Light under her skirt hem, and the man didn't see him at all.
The problem was that Ye Yuan, afraid something might go wrong, had been observing the outside situation from within the spatial spirit artifact.
Now that White Light was tucked under Shangguan Lingxue's skirt, Ye Yuan got a full view of the scenery under the skirt. It was truly a feast for the eyes, giving Ye Yuan the urge to have a nosebleed.
"Nothing's wrong. A flying insect just darted in, but Qing'er has already shooed it away," said Shangguan Lingxue.
"Oh, that's good. Sit tight; we're about to enter the city." With that, the man pulled the curtain closed.
Only then did Shangguan Lingxue take White Light out from under her skirt, overjoyed.
"Where did this little white tiger come from? It's so cute!" Shangguan Lingxue rubbed her face against White Light.
White Light instinctively wanted to dodge, but remembering Ye Yuan's words, he steeled himself and rubbed his furry face against hers as well.
At this moment, White Light was forcing a smile on his face, looking just like a little kitten, extremely cute.
Shangguan Lingxue was instantly smitten by White Light, holding him and unable to put him down.
She kissed him, kneaded him, tickled him, making White Light almost feel like breaking down.
A proud descendant of a divine beast, yet being treated as a pet!
How could the proud divine beast bear this!
Just then, voices came from outside.
"Here's our pass. Let us through immediately!" It was the man from earlier speaking.
"Yes!" The guard hesitated for a moment, then let them through.
As the carriage gradually entered the royal city, Ye Yuan's tense heart finally relaxed.
"What's your name?"
"Roar!"
"Will you stay with me from now on?"
"Roar!" White Light shuddered.
"Lingxue, we've arrived!" Just then, the carriage suddenly stopped, and the man's voice came from outside.
Shangguan Lingxue was absorbed in teasing White Light and was startled by the shout.
But in that moment of distraction, White Light "whooshed" out of her grasp and leaped out through the window lattice again.
