Chapter Twenty-Three: Arrival at the State Capital

When releasing the flames, Ye Han's palm accidentally touched the coagulated blood in the heart of the emperor-level master, Ye Han didn't care about it, but the mysterious crystal in the spiritual world moved.

Then Ye Han felt that the mysterious crystal released a suction force, absorbing the blood in this corpse cleanly, and in the next second, the corpse turned into a dry corpse, Ye Han hurriedly increased the flames, so that the flames accelerated and burned the corpse.

Ye Han took a deep breath, and was a little unaware of the sudden change of the mysterious crystal, so he looked at another corpse.

After washing the blood of the emperor-level master in the same way, he hurriedly destroyed the corpse and destroyed the traces.

Then he sat cross-legged on the ground, pretending to be cultivating, and his mind sank into the spiritual world.

In the spiritual world, the mysterious crystals were spinning drippingly, and a layer of blood mist lingered around them, which was the blood of the two emperor-level masters who had just been absorbed.

These blood mist were constantly absorbed by the mysterious crystals, and I saw a line on the surface of the mysterious crystals, which gradually turned red.

Ye Han got closer and found that there were several lines on the surface of the mysterious crystal, three horizontally and three vertically, and the horizontal one turned red.

Crunch...

The mysterious crystal suddenly made a sound, and Ye Han's spiritual body was startled, and he hurriedly retreated, for fear that the change of the mysterious crystal would involve him.

He held his breath and watched the next change in the mysterious crystal—

I saw that the bottom of the mysterious crystal was separated by red lines, and it slowly rotated, and after slowly turning around, it stopped, Ye Han couldn't see the difference, but he knew that it had turned around.

After turning around as if playing a Rubik's Cube, the vast spiritual power swept out from the mysterious crystal, filling Ye Han's spiritual world.

Ye Han only felt indescribably comfortable all over his body, bathed in the ocean of spiritual power, and the pores of his whole body were dilated, fluttering like a fairy.

The spiritual power emanating from the mysterious crystal gradually stopped, and Ye Han was surprised to find that the spiritual power of the spiritual world had doubled, and the spiritual body condensed by the spiritual power became more and more condensed.

"How can this thing have such majestic spiritual power?" Ye Han looked at the mysterious crystal, and was amazed, originally he thought that this thing was related to the source power, but now it seems that it may not be.

And it was after absorbing the blood of the emperor-level master that such a change occurred, does the next change still need the blood of the emperor-level master?

Thinking of this, Ye Han smiled bitterly, today is just a coincidence, his current strength is not the opponent of the emperor-level master at all.

"Emperor-level master..." Ye Han sighed lightly in his heart, to be honest, he wanted to know what the mysterious crystal was, and he also wanted to have another baptism of spiritual power.

As long as the spiritual power is a cultivator, it is fixed, and the spiritual power is more than that of the average cultivator, and the benefit of spiritual talent is that the comprehension ability is extremely strong, and it can also use the spiritual aspect of combat skills.

Therefore, the doubling of his spiritual power made Ye Hanxi smile, which was enough to greatly increase the speed at which he could comprehend the exercises and combat skills, and even allowed him to comprehend the power of artistic conception faster than ordinary cultivators!

"I've got a treasure!" Ye Han was pleasantly surprised, he didn't expect his luck to be so good, he had just come out of the bottom of the Enlightenment Cliff to obtain such a strange thing.

The mysterious crystal just floated in Ye Han's spiritual world, and there was no change anymore, Ye Han let out a sigh of relief and opened his eyes.

"Finished?"

Li Ji's voice sounded, Ye Han raised his head and looked at him, confusion flashed in his eyes: "Uncle Li, what's wrong?"

"You kid, can't you hear a sound at all?" Wu Jun said loudly on the side: "I called you several times an hour ago, and I didn't react at all." ”

"How long has it been?"

"Three and a half hours!" Wu Jun glared at him.

Ye Han smiled bitterly, immersed in the changes of the mysterious crystal, he didn't expect that after such a long time, he thought it had only been a short while.

Li Ji looked at Ye Han with a thoughtful look in his eyes, he obviously felt that some kind of change had occurred in Ye Han's body, he could see it, but he couldn't say it, it was a very peculiar feeling.

"Now that you're awake, let's go. Li Ji said calmly.

So the group set out on the road to the state capital again.

······

This time the speed was faster, and sometimes Li Ji did not take the trail directly, but took the official road, and took the nearest road to the state capital.

Because of the incident of the witch killer, Li Ji tensed his spirits along the way, for fear that another person would come out to intercept and kill.

However, Li Ji also thought about it a lot, after all, this is the Tianxuan Empire, referring to the Xuanwang family as a first-class princely family, only under the imperial family and state religion.

After all, this is still a wasteland, and the governor of the wasteland is Mu Hongyu, Mu Lingyue's father.

After all, there are very few families who are hostile to the Mu family, and it is very good to be able to organize an interception, and if there are too many interceptions, it is easy to expose the horses' feet, and when the Mu family finds out who is behind the scenes, even the emperor will favor the Mu family.

Because there is evidence.

In this way, on the twelfth day, he had come to the outside of the state capital.

Wuchang City.

The three big characters of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing were written on the stone brick wall above the city gate, faintly releasing the meaning of sharpness, and Ye Han felt a momentum of striving upward.

Ye Han had never been to Huangzhou, after all, the Tenglong Legion he was in before was not responsible for the war in the east of the empire.

From the three words of Wuchang City, Ye Han felt the ambition of the first governor of Huangzhou.

The barren state was barren, and although the folk customs were strong, the level of cultivators was generally lower than that of the other eight states due to the scarcity of resources, and the first governor of Huangzhou named this city Wuchang City, which shows his expectations for the cultivators of Huangzhou.

Wuyun is prosperous!

However, after a thousand years, Wasteland is still the weakest state in the empire, and although Wasteland has tried all kinds of means to absorb cultivators from other states over the years, it has made little improvement.

The barrenness of the Wasteland made the people of the rest of the empire prejudiced, and even if the Wasteland did great benefits, few people would come to settle here.

And after so many years, the places that should be developed in the wasteland have been developed, and there are still no good sources or other resources to be discovered, which leads to the gap between the wasteland and the rest of the empire is getting bigger and bigger.

Mu Hongyu, the current head of the Mu family, chose Huangzhou to accumulate qualifications, which made many people incomprehensible and ridiculed.

The governors who once wanted to do a great job in Huangzhou all had the idea of raising the status of Huangzhou, but what was the result? Without exception, they all failed, and no one thought that Mu Hongyu could change anything, even the locals of Huangzhou thought so.

Barren and chaotic, this is the first impression that most people in the Tianxuan Empire have of the wasteland.

A hundred years ago, the war with the Dongying Empire was lost, and some people in the imperial cabinet even proposed to cede the wasteland to the Dongying Empire, after all, the wasteland is a chicken rib in the eyes of the imperial people, and it is still the kind of place where it is tasteless and it is not a pity to abandon it.

Fortunately, the emperor at that time moved out of the ancestral training that the empire was not allowed to cut the land, which suppressed the ministers who wanted to sue for peace, and later under the counterattack led by the marshal of the empire at that time, Huangzhou returned to the hands of the empire, which suppressed the mouth of Youyou.

Even so, no one still has a good impression of Huangzhou, and now it is the head of the Xuanwang Mansion, Mu Hongyu, who came to Huangzhou to serve as the governor, which attracted a group of attention from the cabinet.

"We went into town. Li Ji's heart was completely relieved, in Wuchang City, he didn't believe that anyone dared to kill him.

"Little Brother Ye go to the Governor's Mansion to sit for a while, you saved the young lady's life, and the Governor will definitely be hospitable. Li Ji looked at Ye Han and said with a smile.

Ye Han nodded without hesitation: "Okay." ”

He must go to the Governor's Palace, he must be completely favored by Mu Hongyu and make the Mu family his backer in the empire.

And the starting point is... Mu Lingyue's illness!

Entering Wuchang City, Ye Han began to look around, although the barren state was barren, but as the capital of a state, the governor naturally would not make the state capital even more cold.

Wuchang City is built large enough, but the architectural style does not give people a sense of gorgeousness and magnificence, but a sense of roughness and fierceness.

The people of the barren state are fierce, although the strength of the cultivators is not good, but most of the ordinary people are strong and strong, and they can definitely beat ten of the other eight states.

Although large enough, the population of Wuchang City is far inferior to that of other places, only a million people, which is far from the tens of millions of people in the other eight state capitals.

This is also the biggest reason why the cultivators in the Wasteland are not as good as the rest of the empire, after all, the base number of cultivators is much worse.

Walking on the avenue of Wuchang City, the people on both sides consciously moved out of the way, with expressions of awe and respect on their faces, while some cultivators stared at the carriage pulled by the purple-pupiled Yunyi Tiger, their eyes were blazing and yearning.

Everyone knows that Mu Hongyu's daughter can't cultivate, but this does not hinder the pursuit of her, referring to the pearl of the Xuanwang Mansion, whoever marries can ascend to the sky in one step.

Ye Han looked at the eyes of the people around him, and had a certain understanding of the prestige of the Mu family in the wasteland in his heart.

The rest of the empire looks down on the Wasteland, and what about the natives of the Wasteland?

Therefore, most of the governors of Huangzhou have always been locals of Huangzhou, and Mu Hongyu can be respected by the locals of Huangzhou as a foreigner, which shows his ability.

After walking for about half an hour in Wuchang City, I came to a majestic and solemn mansion, on the vermilion gate, the red plaque was three meters long, and the three big characters written by His Majesty the Emperor himself -

Doge's Palace.
