More than ten days have passed, calculating the time, it has been a full month since Gao Yuan left the Vast Immortal Sect, and only then did he arrive in Donglai City.

Donglai City, more than 30,000 miles away from the vast Immortal Sect, belongs to the jurisdiction of Wu State, but this city is still more than 10,000 miles away from Wu State, although it is nominally subordinate to Wu State, but in fact it is controlled by the three major cultivation families.

And the backers behind these three major cultivation families are the One Qi Imperial Sword Sect, the Vast Immortal Sect, and the Five Elements Sect; on weekdays, the family does things for the sect, and once something happens, the sect will also come out to support it.

Donglai City covers an extremely wide area, with a length of 500 miles, although it is a cultivation city, but there are also many mortals, and it is not uncommon for cultivators to be everywhere on weekdays.

Even the city lord of Donglai City is the power of the Qi Transformation Realm, and his subordinates are all cultivated.

It can be said that the entire Wu Kingdom is like a big cultivation family, from the emperor to the top and bottom of the military officials, basically all of them are cultivated.

Otherwise, the sphere of influence of the Wu State can be said to be very vast, at least hundreds of thousands of miles in radius, if it is a country composed entirely of mortals, how can it be managed.

But even so, the royal family of Wu State is completely unable to manage it, and has to acquiesce to the existence of the Eight Great Sects, in fact, in terms of strength, the royal family of Wu is not weak, and it can be regarded as the ninth invisible sect of Wu State.

It is precisely because the Wu State is so huge that the royal family of the Wu State has to rely on the Eight Great Sects, and even many cities acquiesce to the Eight Great Sects operating behind the scenes. Otherwise, if the eight major factions attacked the capital together, no matter how strong the royal family of Wu was, they would not be able to resist it.

For thousands of years, the state of Wu has been in this situation, and a check and balance has already been formed between the royal family and the sects, and the royal family acquiesces in the growth of the eight major sects, but the eight major factions also do not attack the royal family.

In fact, such a situation is also the eight major sects are happy to see, unlike the royal family of the Wu State, although the royal family of the Wu State is also a cultivator, but it is also obsessed with power.

At this point, it is not as pure as the eight major sects, whether the eight major sects are good or evil, in fact, they are more concerned about the success of cultivation and immortality.

They are too lazy to manage mortals at all, sitting on the high-ranking officials in the mortal world, worshipping the king, although one person is below and above ten thousand, where is there a long life and a long time to see at ease.

Gao Yuan arrived at the gate of Donglai City, and before he could land, someone below shouted loudly:

"Someone is coming ahead, who are you? Why are you coming to our east city? Hurry down and answer!"

Gao Yuan looked at it, and then found that there were two soldiers guarding the gate in armor at the gate of the city, and this sentence came from one of them.

Gao Yuan went to Donglai City to assist the Xiuzhen family under the jurisdiction of the sect, but not to cause trouble, so he lowered his body according to his words at the moment, stretched out his hand and hugged his fists:

"In Xia Gaoyuan, the disciple of the Tibetan Qi Peak of the Vast Immortal Sect, this time I came here to be assigned by the sect, and I have something to do!"

This sentence is not humble or arrogant, it is quite the style of a big disciple, after all, this is different from the sect outside, every move is related to the face of the sect, if the answer is soft, wouldn't it be a fall to the prestige of the sect.

Sure enough, these two guards were still aggressive just now, showing off their might, and after hearing that Gao Yuan came from the door, they obviously changed their faces, and hurriedly said with a smile on their faces:

"I don't know if the immortals of the Vast Immortal Sect are coming, and I hope to forgive my sins, I don't know if the immortals can show us the sect token, and the two of us can make a difference!"

"This is natural, No! This is my sect token, you two can look at it!" Gao Yuan didn't want to embarrass the guards on duty at the two gates, so he took out the token from the space bag and shook it in front of the two guards, and then put it away again.

These two guards were sharp-eyed, and in a flash, the two of them saw clearly what kind of token this was, and they didn't dare to make things difficult at the moment, and said with a smile:

"It turns out that the immortals on the Tibetan Qi Peak of the Vast Immortal Sect are coming, let's open the door, do you need the two of us to pass on the City Lord's Mansion?

"No need to inform me, my coming this time is a private matter, don't alarm the city lord, you two are busy!

Hearing this, the two guards quickly dodged their bodies and moved out of the way of the rear entrance. In fact, people come and go in this Donglai City, and it is not only cultivators who come in and out, but also a large number of mortals.

Therefore, this city gate is actually open, and it will only be closed at night, and the formation will be opened at the same time, but although it is open, there are also guards to check the people who come and go to the cultivators.

Because although Donglai City belonged to the Wu Kingdom, it was actually the three righteous path sects that controlled the entire city, so it was said that the Ten Thousand Swords Alliance, the Heavenly Demon Palace, the Nine Pyloric Sect, the Heavenly Machine Sect and others were denied entry into the city.

Otherwise, let these demonic forces enter the city and make a mess, who knows what will happen.

If you want to say that this Donglai City Lord Yue Song, this city lord is also aggrieved, although nominally he is the leader of Donglai City, but in fact he has said all kinds of things.

For trivial matters, you have to consult the heads of the three major families before you can implement it, but there is no way, the emperor is far away from the royal family, and it is too far away from the royal base camp, so it has long been acquiesced to the three major sects.

And the so-called city lord is just a puppet in the eyes of the three major sects, just an empty name.

After Gao Yuan entered Donglai City, he saw an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going, and the streets and alleys were full of restaurants, green buildings, pawns, and so on.

The crowd was loud and lively, and he was often amazed to see monks bargaining and doing business with mortals.

The heart said that it was really a good cultivation city, and it was able to achieve a mixture of immortals and mortals, and no monk relied on his profound cultivation and regarded mortals as ants.

In fact, this is Gao Yuan's mistake, the high in the bones of the monks is inevitable, just like one is an elephant and the other is an ant, how to talk about peaceful coexistence.

The scene Gao Yuan saw at the moment was nothing more than false prosperity, and it was a rule set by the three major sects in order to stabilize Donglai City, that is, in the city, monks could not rely on cultivation to bully mortals.

After all, the main contributors to the construction of the city are still mortals, and where do the monks have so much time to care about these trivial matters.

Therefore, although Donglai City is known as a cultivation city, it is still dominated by mortals, and at least ninety-nine percent of the residents are mortals.

For example, many shops are actually opened by monks, but where do the monks have so much time to do everything themselves, so they hire some mortals to be subordinates and do what they can.
