Old Lin nodded his head as he stared at the middle-aged man in silver armor in front of him and answered seriously
''Naturally, I wouldn't call you here for no reason. Commander Quan, there are so guests that the city lord has personally invited here, and as per the city lord's instructions, you will be the one to protect them while they stay in our city.''
''Protect?'' The silver-armored middle-aged man, Quan Lin mumbled, as he stared at 'old Lin' with a look of surprise on his face.
Although there had been cases in the past where certain powerful people were invited in the Sovereign's estate by the Northern Sovereign herself, there had never been a case where an exalted peak Dao Emperor like Quan Lin would be assigned to personally protect those people.
Besides, most people who were invited to the Sovereign's estate as guests, would usually be extrely powerful individuals who had no need for protection in the first place.
At most, a group of peak Dao Kings would be instructed to follow them around, in case soone was blind enough to offend them.
''Since the city lord has personally said this, I will naturally follow her orders. General Lin, can you tell if there is sothing special about those guests?''
Shaking his head, the golden-armored old man, 'old Lin' looked at the entrance of the Southern Dragon's courtyard in front of him and said calmly
''I don't know much about this matter either. The city lord just returned from the King's Palace today and told to take care of this issue. If you want to know more about this, you can only ask the city lord herself.''
Nodding his head, the silver-armored Quan Lin didn't say anything else and simply stared at the entrance of the Southern Dragon's courtyard as well, curious to see what kind of guests could warrant so much attention from the Northern Sovereign that she would send a peak Dao Emperor like him to protect them.
In reality, even if Quan Lin was compared to soone like the Grand Elder of the Holy sect, he would still be slightly stronger in terms of strength and he was half a strp away from breaking through to the Sovereign realm. It was no wonder that he was surprised after he was asked to personally guard a group of guests.
At the sa ti, inside the Southern Dragon's courtyard, Shun Long stared at the black token in his hands for a few more monts with a smile on his face, before he turned his attention back towards Jiang Chen and the rest and said calmly
''I'm going to have a look around the city for a bit and see if there is anything to buy. After that, I'm planning to leave for a few months.''
''Leave the city?'' Bai Longtian and the rest were all surprised when they heard this.
''Brother, where are you going?'' Jiang Chen looked at Shun Long and asked curiously a mont later.
As far as Jiang Chen and the others werr aware, ever since Shun Long had entered the Holy sect, aside from cultivating or when they were completing missions, Shun Long had spent his entire ti within the sect.
Shun Long's lips curved up into a big smile as he looked at Jiang Chen and the others before he answered calmly
''I am going to a city called Murong city for a few days. There are so treasures hidden outside the city, and it's finally ti to go get them. It shouldn't take too long for to co back. I should be back in less than 2 months.''
Liu i's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard the words 'Murong city'.
She knew that before she and Shun Long entered the Holy sect, they had obtained Huo Wuyi's treasures from the 'Dragon Lord's villa' back in the Night star continent, and she also knew that Huo Wuyi had buried the rest of it outside Murong city.
In the past, Shun Long didn't have a chance to go to Murong city and he also didn't have any idea how strong the Murong family really was... but now things were different.
Not only had he broken through to the Dao King realm by now, but Little Silver had also reached the peak of rank 6, while Little Black had reached the middle rank 7 and was strong enough to fight most peak Dao Emperors.
Only peak Dao Emperors like the Grand Elder could possibly threaten him, but even then, at least in terms of speed even a peak Dao Emperor like the Grand Elder was vastly inferior to him.
Besides, after breaking through to the Dao King realm, Shun Long was also extrely confident in his ability to survive.
Bai Longtian, Jiang Chen, and Xingyi didn't ask anything else as they simply nodded their heads. Since Shun Long was planning to leave, the best thing they could do was try to find ncrease their cultivation as much as possible during this ti. After all, there was less than half a year left until the estimated opening of the legendary City of Immortals.
A few monts later, Shun Long's group of 5 appeared back in the entrance of the Southern Dragon's courtyard, where 'old Lin' and commander Quan were both waiting for them.
Commander Quan Lin's eyes instantly started to inspect the group of 5 young people in front of him curiously without speaking.
For the Northern Sovereign to take an interest in 5 newly advanced Dao Kings, there had to be sothing extrely special about them.
At the sa ti, the golden-armored old man, 'old Lin' looked at Shun Long and the others and gestured towards the silver-armored man next to him and said
''Young lords, young ladies, this is Commander Quan, the most powerful of the 12 commanders of our city. He will personally protect you while you stay here.''
Commander Quan stared at Shun Long and the others for a few monts, before he nodded his head and said
''Young lords, my na is Quan Lin. If you wish to leave the Sovereign's estate and tour through the Northern Sovereign's city, you should first talk to about it.''
Shun Long didn't object since he knew that these were the Northern Sovereign's arrangents, and after a mont of thinking he said
''Commander Quan, we are planning to take a look around the city. Is there a place where we can get a detailed map of the central region?''
