There was no need for the passerby to say more; Xu Tianyu quickly found out what else was required to enter Khan’s Palace beyond having an invitation in hand. He imdiately said to the passerby, "Thank you."
"You’re welco." The passerby waved his hand, walking with his own invitation through the crowd, his figure soon disappearing from sight.
Xu Tianyu approached Su Sigui and said, "Mayor, we can go in."
"Hmm." Su Sigui nodded lightly and said, "Let’s go."
She then led Yan Xing and a few others through the throng of people. Su Sigui looked up at the palace, the walls of which exuded a profound sense of solidity; their moon-white paint lent an air of sanctity to the entire edifice. Owing to its trendous size, it distorted one’s perspective, making it seem closer than it actually was. The wide square in front of them was packed with people and erupted with cheers from ti to ti.
As they continued to make their way through the crowd toward the palace that seed fit for giants, Su Sigui began to discern details of the palace.
The entirety of the palace was unremarkable, but the ground around it and several walls were adorned with a continuous statue—singular because there was only one!
Erging incongruously from the ground was a sinuous form large enough to require ten people to embrace it. Its scales were clearly delineated, and the whole appeared as if carved from a massive stone by a masterful hand, so vivid and lifelike. She had no idea how long this statue was; it seed to be a dragon, part of its body visible outside the palace wall, wrapping around from the ground to the exterior. The head was not in sight, and another part seed to penetrate the interior of the palace.
From a distance, it almost seed as if the entire colossal palace was enveloped layer by layer by this imnse creature!
When Su Sigui reached this imnse sculpture, she touched the scales as if they were truly carved from stone, but her intuition told her it was not that simple!
Looking at the dragon’s body on the wall, it was clearly layered separately from the palace’s architecture, not a single entity.
Xu Tianyu and the others also felt that the dragon sculpture encircling the palace was no simple matter, but before they had ti to examine it closely, they heard Su Sigui say, "Let’s go."
"All right." They didn’t say much and followed Su Sigui through the main entrance of the palace. At the signal of the soldiers, Su Sigui pulled out her invitation and handed it to them.
These han soldiers from the grasslands examined it carefully, confird its authenticity, and after a sweeping glance at Xu Tianyu and the others, nodded to Su Sigui, signaling that they could enter.
Without saying much more, Su Sigui naturally walked in, with Xu Tianyu and the others closely behind.
Facing a screen near the palace’s main door, they walked around it to see the scene unfold before Su Sigui. There weren’t many people inside—of course, it only appeared that way because the palace was so vast. Even though there were tiered cloud-buildings, one could only see the attendants in servant garb carrying various delicacies back and forth.
The magnificence of the palace made it seem sparse even when all its occupants were gathered. Upon Su Sigui’s arrival, many people looked her way, and her eyes also swept around, intercepting glances with several others. Her pupils contracted by the minute!
Most of the people here were Level 8 Powerhouses! And those below Level 8 made up only a small portion!
Every individual in sight belonged to the Level 8 echelon: there were zombies with human appearances, as well as Level 8 New Human Stronghouses. This caused Su Sigui’s calm heart to throb fiercely for a mont before quickly regaining its composure.
She didn’t know how many Level 8 presences were present, but it was definitely more than two hundred—a terrifying number!
This was more than double the number of Level 8 Powerhouses in Cloud Gorge Base, perhaps even more. Although about a third of these powerhouses were Level 8 zombies without any scent of flesh and blood, these zombies were commanded by so entity and could be used as high-end forces for a faction, a truly terrifying prospect!
After a while, as if nothing had happened, Su Sigui began to wander about, getting a sense of the place. Her gaze first turned to the sofa at the very end of the palace at the center. It was unoccupied. Above and to the right, a thick and lengthy dragon’s body entered from outside, coiled around the fourth column on the right front side and hung down to the floor—it was a huge dragon’s head! Its head alone had enough surface area to house a not-so-small building!
However, aside from the protruding layered scales and long horns on the dragon’s head, there was nothing else. The sofa was located next to this dragon’s head, and its eyes, almost as if coming to life, radiated a peculiar glow, as though it were watching everything inside the palace!
anwhile, on the other side, after distributing the live weapons on the table, a group of people all turned their attention to a man in a black suit not far away.
"Boss, what is it?" they asked.
The man known as the ’boss’ kept his eyes fixed on a certain spot. Hearing the question from the person next to him, he smiled, "An old acquaintance has arrived to see ."
"An old acquaintance?" A towering man over four ters tall was taken aback. His physique was exaggeratedly burly, surrounded by nurous han n from the grasslands, each well over two ters tall, so reaching three ters. Even in loose clothes, their muscles would intermittently tense and tighten the fabric.
Yet even these grasslands n seed like dwarfs in front of the giant!
As to other normally statured people, they seed almost a different species next to the giant!
After the giant expressed his curiosity, he began scanning the room, eventually locking onto a woman at the spot where the man’s gaze pointed. Recognizing her, he blurted out a na: "Su Sigui! How did she find this place?"
When the others heard the na ’Su Sigui,’ they all looked puzzled and asked, "Brother Hu, who is Su Sigui?"
The giant didn’t answer, as the man he called boss had already left, heading towards the sofa beside the dragon’s head.
"Let’s go."
As the giant moved, Su Sigui’s gaze quickly turned toward them. Before she could speak, Yan Xing imdiately recognized who the man was. With such a massive figure, it was hard not to notice him.
"It’s Tang Fu! It really is that big guy. It seems we haven’t co to the wrong place, Li Henian is definitely in the Northern Empire."
