Entering the border city, Shangguan Yunlong saw a sense of ruin after the war, the houses on both sides of the road were crooked, as if they would collapse in the next moment, and the clothes on people's bodies were also very tattered, all of them were poor and thin, and even the trees on the side of the road were covered with dense tooth marks. Even the animals raised by people are hungry and skinny.

Walking on the road, you can see scenes of fighting for a piece of meat everywhere, and you can also see some people digging up the soil from the ground little by little to satisfy their hunger because they can't compete with others. On the other hand, the groups of patrolling dragon warriors on the road, one by one wearing silver armor, one by one with bulging generals' bellies, walked proudly in front of the group of poor people.

An old man in a shabby fluffy suit sat on the side of the road, his clothes covered in dust.

As soon as the other people saw those dragon soldiers, they rushed over as if they had seen a savior. They scrambled for the few shriveled and thin dried meats in the hands of the dragon warriors who led the patrol.

But the old man sat there quietly, motionless, as if he had not noticed the thin piece of dried meat that he might be fighting for. He's too old to walk.

Shangguan Yunlong's purpose was to walk around first to understand the situation here, and then go to find the nominal city lord of the Shangguan family in the border city, and go to the city lord's hall to complete the succession ceremony.

The City Lord's Hall is very easy to find, as long as you look up, the most ornately decorated building located at the highest point is the power center of the entire border city - the City Lord's Hall.

Shangguan Yunlong led the two gods to continue to walk towards the city, and the scene in the city was not much better than the tragic scenes that Shangguan Yunlong and the others saw when they first entered the city just now, but it was slightly closer to the city lord's mansion, and the materials allocated were slightly more.

Because here, you can already see some small shops run by locals and foreign adventurers.

Shangguan Yunlong and the two gods came to the vicinity of the City Lord's Hall and looked at this gorgeous and majestic building.

It is not so much a castle lord's mansion as it is a royal palace. Because the border city itself is the original site of the Yanlong King City, it is said that Shangguan Yunlong got a royal city that once symbolized supreme power, but due to the war, it is no longer the style of the past.

Shangguan Yunlong ordered the two gods to push open the gate of the palace, and this place was still the same as back then, and it had not changed at all. The golden throne stood alone at the top of the main hall, waiting for the next king to command the world. The corpses that have long been dried everywhere seem to tell the tragedy of the war and the fall of a dynasty.

Shangguan Yunlong stepped on the gap between the corpses and walked towards the throne, and when he came to the throne, Shangguan Yunlong stretched out his hand, brushed the dust off the throne, and turned around and sat down.

The pitiful expressions of the poor people in their minds, they who used bark and dirt to satisfy their hunger, fought for a piece of food, and when they had supplies, they rushed to fight for it, and there were many, many tragic scenes that Shangguan Yunlong did not see, just like a movie, which kept playing in Shangguan Yunlong's mind.

The royal city that Shangguan Yunlong took over was a complete mess, first internally, the people's lives were in dire straits, and there was a possibility of riots at any time, which was not conducive to Shangguan Yunlong's rule, and then it was a foreign enemy, and the royal city was located at the junction of the dragon clan and the beast clan.

Although the royal city has become a ruined city, because all the resources are firmly controlled by the dragon clan and the beast clan, even if Shangguan Yunlong enters the royal city, without resources, the royal city cannot develop, and the people can only continue to be poor, and at that time, this place will only become more chaotic.

However, since Shangguan Yunlong has come here and wants to form his own forces to avenge his parents, then Shangguan Yunlong must be this king, this era of only empty shell kingship is destined to pass, and an era ruled by Shangguan Yunlong is coming!

Shangguan Yunlong did not find the Yanlong King Seal symbolizing the identity of the king on the armrest of the throne, Shangguan Yunlong stood up from the throne, walked down the throne, and said to the two god generals: "Wang Yin is not here, it may be due to the war, the people are lost, you go and catch some dragon people to clean up here, I will go out to find Wang Yin, those dragon people are unwilling, just drive them out, we don't need to grudge with the dragon clan now!"

The two divine generals immediately led the order to go out, and Shangguan Yunlong also walked outside.

After leaving the palace, Shangguan Yunlong came to the place of the strange old man he had just seen. The old man did not leave, but remained where he was. At this time, the crowd of people scrambling for dried meat had already dispersed, and the pedestrians on the road were also sparse, but the old man was still sitting in place.

"Grandpa, where are you from, do you want me to send you back?" Shangguan Yunlong asked him.

"From Yanlong City," he said, smiling.

It was his hometown, and the old man smiled at the mention of it.

"I was taking care of the animals at that time," he said to Shangguan Yunlong.

"Well, I'm listening!, old man, you go on!" Shangguan Yunlong said, not fully understanding.

"Ah," he added, "you know, I'll just stay there and take care of the animals." I was the last to leave Yanlong City. ”

He didn't look like a poor man or an adventurer. Shangguan Yunlong looked at his dusty old fluffy clothes, his gray face full of dust, and his eyes that had been lowered, and asked, "What animal! And do you know the whereabouts of the Yanlong King Seal?"

"All sorts," he said, shaking his head, "but now he has to leave them all behind." Regarding Shangguan Yunlong's question about the Yanlong King Seal, the old man did not express any opinion of his own.

Shangguan Yunlong stared at the team of dragon clan soldiers who were still patrolling in the distance, looking at the palace that had been destroyed by the ruthless war, Shangguan Yunlong now just wanted to know the whereabouts of the Yanlong King Seal as soon as possible, obviously the old man's attitude of answering the question made Shangguan Yunlong a little irritable.

Finally, the old man said what Shangguan Yunlong was most concerned about, something about the Yanlong King Seal.

The old man sighed and said, "Actually, I am the Yanlong King, and those animals are my people, and when they needed help the most, I fled by myself and made my cruel and unscrupulous brother the new Yanlong King, I am really ashamed of my people! I don't have much time, can you promise this king one thing?"

Shangguan Yunlong was slightly stunned, and said woodly: "You say!"

The old man slowly unbuttoned his clothes, took out something in a golden silk bag from it, handed it to Shangguan Yunlong, and said, "Promise this king to rebuild the Yanlong Kingdom." ”

Shangguan Yunlong trembled and felt very heavy in his heart.

"At that time, I was taking care of the animals," the old man said indifferently, but no longer to Shangguan Yunlong, "I was just taking care of the animals." ”

Shangguan Yunlong put his finger under the nose of the Yanlong King and probed it, and found that the Yanlong King had lost his breath, Shangguan Yunlong held the Yanlong King seal in both hands, and looked at the Yanlong King who had lost his vitality blankly.

He couldn't believe that a peerless king who had once dominated the world and established such a glorious civilization of the Yanlong Dynasty would end up like this, starving to death on the streets where no one cared about, and he didn't even have a loved one to send him to the end, so he could only entrust the throne to himself to such an unknown person before his death.

Shangguan Yunlong hung the seal of the Yanlong King on the belt around his waist, picked up the old man and walked out of the city, Shangguan Yunlong wanted to let the Yanlong King see the whole city, the city that carried the glory of his life, and now his successor has inherited his power and rebuilt this city into a glorious city and a glorious city like the Yanlong King City back then.

Passing by the corpse of Shangguan Leopard, Shangguan Yunlong bent down and picked up Shangguan Leopard's storage bag, and after spitting a mouthful of saliva at Shangguan Leopard's corpse, he carried the Yanlong King to the only place outside the city full of flowers, and buried the Yanlong King.

He found a square stone nearby, erected a tombstone for the Yanlong King, slipped his fingers, and used his own blood to write the epitaph of "One is the king, the world is the king".

Shangguan Yunlong kowtowed three times towards the tombstone of the Yanlong King, and said, "Great King, you know the ground, I will definitely not forget your will, be a good king, be a great king like you." ”

After speaking, he stood in front of the tomb of the Yanlong King and stared at it for a while before Shangguan Yunlong left with a heavy heart.

Shangguan Yunlong poured spiritual power into Shangguan Leopard's storage bag, and used spiritual power to erase the marks left by Shangguan Leopard on it, and found that it was full of piles of gold coins, as well as many exquisite battle armors, many precious pills, and many things that Shangguan Yunlong had never seen before.

Shangguan Yunlong took out a part of the gold coins, went to a small shop opened by one of the adventurers in the city, bought all the food in it, and put it in a storage bag.

Shangguan Yunlong came to the tomb of the Yanlong King again, put all the food in front of the Yanlong King's tombstone, and said, "Great King, eat more, so that you won't be hungry there." ”

Shangguan Yunlong walked to the tombstone, took off his wolf skin coat, draped it on the tombstone of the Yanlong King, and said, "King, the weather is cold, wear more, don't freeze there." ”

Shangguan Yunlong knelt in front of the tomb of the Yanlong King, pointed to the sky with one hand, and swore: "The sky is the proof, I, Shangguan Yunlong, swear in front of the tomb of the Yanlong King, I will seriously remember the will of the Yanlong King, revitalize the Yanlong Kingdom, if there is any violation, heaven and man will be punished!"

After swearing an oath, Shangguan Yunlong kowtowed to the tomb of the Yanlong King three more times before leaving.

Shangguan Yunlong injected a spiritual power into the storage bag, and a golden battle armor instantly enveloped Shangguan Yunlong.

Shangguan Yunlong untied the seal of the Yanlong King tied around his waist, held it high, and returned to the palace.

He wants to prove to the world that an era dominated by his Shangguan Yunlong is about to begin!
