Thousands of years ago, the world experienced the greatest war catastrophe in history, and the flames of war left over from that catastrophe have not been extinguished, and are still spreading and burning in this world. The human race continued to develop after this terrible catastrophe, until Hongjun Dila unified the entire human race, and the former Hongjun Empire era created by the Terran Xuanhuang Hongjun Dila became a historical symbol that the entire human race completely got rid of slavery and entered human civilization, and since then, the world has begun to enter a relatively stable stage of development, just like that, until the end of the former Hongjun Empire, that is, the rise of the six races and the occurrence of the Nirvana Rebellion, the former Hongjun Empire in the history of the human race ended like this, but the fire of the Xuanhuang is still burning, It didn't take long for Hong Jun Ling, a descendant of the Hongjun royal family, to establish the revolutionary army, and, Hong Jun Ling changed his name to Hongjun Dila in accordance with the name of the ancestor Hongjun Dila, in the context of the rise of the six ethnic groups, the revolutionary army held high the banner of "New Human Race", overthrew the Nirgen Empire, established the post-Hongjun Empire, and called himself the "first Xuanhuang", soon after that, the first rebellion of heaven and earth broke out, the so-called rebellion of heaven and earth, in fact, "the largest war catastrophe in history" left over from the poison, The seeds of war have been buried deep in the dark corners of the world, and when the rebellion of heaven and earth broke out, it finally broke out, and finally the first rebellion of heaven and earth ended with the victory of the human race, and Hongjun Dila divided the three realms, and since then, the world has entered a period of stability. After the demarcation, there has been civil strife among the Terrans, and the Terrans unified by Hongjun Dila are now divided into the Hongjun Empire, the Aslan Empire, the Ghost Moon Kingdom, the Ghost Empire and other countries, but the center of the Terrans is still in the Hongjun Empire.

The Hongjun Empire is vast, from the North Sea of the Human Continent to the south to most of the South China Sea, as well as most of the East China Sea are within its territory.

After Ziyan, Yuan Ji, and Yan Wei bid farewell to their mentor Celeent Desh Dragon, they embarked on the road north together. The first step of their journey was to leave the Great Forest of Modibeque and head to the water-stopping city-state of Southshire.

Nanjun is the general name of the southern part of the human continent, with the infinite mountain range running east and west as the boundary, and the south of the infinite mountain range is Nanjun, and the main guardian family of Nanjun is the Ximen family in the "Four Inner Families", among them, the southernmost "Zhishui City-State" in Nanjun is named after the greatest genius of the Ximen family.

And Ziyan's first stop out of the primeval forest was the water-stopping city-state.

The three of them walked in the territory of the city-state of Zhishui, and they could already see that there were people living in the city, but they were still far away from the city. Ziyan wears a pair of rimless glasses, his long hair is also cut short, and the clothes he wears are very simple, because now he is a wanted person in the Senate, and after arriving here, he is no longer in a no-man's land, and he needs to simply disguise himself to hide his identity.

"I said, let's find a place to eat first." Ziyan turned around and said.

"In this wilderness, it's hard to find a place to rest, young master." Yan Wei looked around, only to see the lush trees and the smoke rising from time to time in the sky.

"What do you call me?" Ziyan looked at Yan Wei and asked strangely.

"Young master, did you forget that I was called like this when you saved me three years ago?" Yan Wei said.

Dongfang Ziyan shook his head stunned: "It's definitely the first time you have called me like that, and you haven't called me anything before." ”

"Oh, it doesn't matter, since Ziyan is my savior, you will be my young master in the future, right?" Yan Wei turned her head to look at Yuan Ji.

Shangguan Yuanji walked in front: "Hurry up, we can still find a family to live in before dark." He said coldly.

"It's still such a man with facial paralysis." Dongfang Ziyan shook his head helplessly.

"Hurry up, let's go into town." Shangguan Yuanji suddenly turned around and said, "I haven't been back for three years, let's go to the city to investigate the situation first, maybe now the Senate has revoked your arrest." ”

"Makes sense, can Vivi still walk?" Dongfang Ziyan asked.

"Let's go, let's go!" Yan Wei also couldn't wait to enter the city.

Xicheng District, a water-stopping city-state

The streets of Xicheng are very lively, and the night market opens as soon as it gets dark, and the streets will be even more lively at that time. People like to live in a lively and peaceful life, rather than in the dangerous mountains and forests, and perhaps this is the difference between man and beast. , the distinction between civilization and barbarism.

A personable man rode a white horse and wore a gorgeous satin robe, and ran wildly through the crowded streets, almost knocking down passers-by several times, but no one dared to stop him, because the man was the eldest son of the Ximen family, Ximen Yue.

Ximenyue has been a pampered young master since he was a child, he naturally likes to hunt on horseback, and he never brings an entourage, he is a gentleman, he is more powerful than Emperor Xuan in the city-state of Zhishui, and no one dares to go to him.

At the corner of the street, Zi Yan Yuan and Yan Wei were talking while walking, and Zi Yan suddenly said, "Do you eat octopus balls?" I'm going to buy it. ”

"Let me go, lest you be recognized." After Yuan Ji finished speaking, he walked to the roadside stall.

Yan Wei and Ziyan stood in the middle of the road and waited, Ziyan said: "This place is near the sea, there are a lot of seafood snacks, I heard that the octopus balls here are a must." As soon as Ziyan finished smiling, the sound of horses' hooves and horse neighing came from the street at the bend of the street, and Yan Wei walked in front and was still watching Yuan Ji shopping. Ximenyue rode a tall war horse and suddenly appeared around the corner, and a horse neighed and rushed straight towards Yan Wei, but Yan Wei was still looking elsewhere, and she didn't notice that Ximenyue had already rushed towards her on horseback.

"Yan Wei be careful!!" Ziyan took the lead and rushed forward, pushing Yan Wei away, and at the same time, Ximen Yue pulled the reins suddenly, the horse's front hooves were raised high, and the horse's hooves stepped on the top of Ziyan's head, and suddenly stopped, Ziyan rolled his eyes in fright, and he exclaimed: "Hey, hey!" It's dangerous for you to ride a horse like this!! ”

Ximen Yue calmly jumped off the horse, and the people on the side of the road were all talking, he glanced at Ziyan with disdain, and didn't seem to take this bespectacled teenager in his eyes at all, and then walked to Yan Wei's side and took Yan Wei's hand, "This beautiful young lady, please forgive me for scaring you." After speaking, he took Yan Wei's hand and kissed the back of his hand, and said with a smile: "I'm too reckless, my name is Ximenyue, can you come to the house to talk about it?" ”

Yan Wei's face was slightly red, and she didn't know what to say.

"Let go of your hands! What are you doing!! Ziyan said.

"I'm sorry, I almost stepped on you just now, this money is compensation." Ximenyue took out a money bag, "This money can probably cost you ten years." ”

"You kid owe a beating! I don't want your money!" Dongfang Ziyan glared angrily.

"What? Do you want to fight. Ximen Yue smiled.

"Ahh Lord Ximenyue, she is so handsome and manly!! Suddenly, a woman screamed among the onlookers.

"I'm going to marry you, Master Simon!!"

"Please come and trample on the slave family!!"

A tidal wave of screams sounded, all of them were girls, that's right, the reason why Ximenyue has been rampant and domineering without causing public anger is because... He's very handsome.

At this time, Ximenyue fiddled with her long hair, shook her gentleman's braids, took off her shawl with a brush, and only wore a slim suit, and she didn't know when she had a rose in her mouth, which seemed to be swaggering through the market.

And Shangguan Yuanji was standing aside eating octopus balls, looking lively, and didn't seem to have the intention of helping to say a word.

Dongfang Ziyan had a jealous and hateful expression, and immediately pulled up Yan Wei, and then pulled up Shangguan Yuanji, who had been eating octopus balls on the side of the road, ignored Ximenyue, and walked past Ximenyue. Just as they were about to pass, Ximenyue suddenly stretched out her hand to stop them.

"Didn't you hear that I was going to invite this beautiful young lady to my house?" Ximen Yue said coldly.

"What if we say no." Shangguan Yuanji threw away the octopus balls and bamboo sticks, the corners of his mouth were still sticky with hot sauce, his tone was extremely cold, and his eyes were as sharp as knives.

Before the words fell, Ximenyue pulled out an extremely thin long sword from her waist, "Then I have to use the duel of men to decide whether the young lady in front of me will stay or not." ”

Dongfang Ziyan said: "Fight it, we can't do it." ”

"This is the territory of the Simon family, although the Simon family may not have anything to do with the Senate, but you must not let them know your true identity until they are sure, so as not to have an accident." Shangguan Yuanji whispered to Ziyan in a low voice.

"That's right." Ziyan cupped his glasses and said.

"Let's go." Yan Wei said as she hid behind the two.

"I'm going to invite this young lady to the house no matter what!" Ximen Yue threw the rose in his hand into the air, and the sword in his hand was about to stab at Ziyan.

Suddenly, a thunderous sound of mechanical operation sounded, it was a girl's roar, and the screams of the audience turned into exclamations, behind Ziyan and them, a behemoth was approaching, and Ximen Yue looked back with a look of fear.

"Ximenyue, hurry up and go home, otherwise I must tell my father today that you are bullying the market again!!"
