It was Zhao Huai who had infiltrated the city.

He looked at the ever-increasing number of troops flocking around him and was rendered speechless.

He had just arrived in the city and wanted to find the base of the Yan Empire’s army. Before he could do so, however, he was surrounded.

When he and Song Heqing parted ways, they left each other with a way to make contact.

Was there a password to be given at a specific location?

He hadn’t even found that location yet, and he was already surrounded.

Ever since he entered the city, he was watched.

By “watched”, it meant that he was under the surveillance of hidden guards and other spies.

Zhao Huai had excellent senses.

Every step he took, someone was watching him.

Not just him—they watched others just the same.

Every move one made was under scrutiny.

The guards were trained professionals. They blended in amongst the common people so well that it was nearly impossible to tell.

Zhao Huai realized this shortly after entering the city.

Beneath the bustling facade of Nanyu Prefecture was a persistent underground force.

There was always someone on the defense.

Upon reflection, it must be the remnants of the Yan Empire.

As a matter of survival, they were always on edge.

Compared with his life in Jinzhou, it was like night and day.

Zhao Huai looked at the ever-increasing troops around him, each braver than the last, their military formation immaculate. This was an elite force; judging by the weaponry of their time, they were at the pinnacle.

In his memory, these seemed to be the men from the Yan Empire’s army. There was a powerful army under the Yan Empire called the Dragon Riders of the Yan.

Everyone wore a Blood Scale Jade Armor, rode a dragon horse, and followed the strictest discipline—an institution that had been around for over a hundred years.

Though the banner was changed, the appearance could not be mistaken.

In other words, the high-ranking officer before him was also from the Yan Empire.

Most cultivators would be at a loss when cornered by such a massive army.

However, to trap a cultivator of the Initiation Realm might still present sdifficulty.

Zhao Huai was torn between laughter and tears when faced with this situation.

One didn’t know whether to rejoice or lament.

The good news was that the core strength of the Yan Empire remained strong.

The bad news was that these forces were now against him.

With a thought, Zhao Huai said to the middle-aged officer in front of him, “I need to meet your general. If anything goes wrong it will be on your head.”

“The middle-aged other remained unmoved and replied coldly, “What is your status that you qualify to meet the general.” Zhao Huai rubbed his head and sighed,

“You are really inflexible.”

“What is your name?”

Zhao Huai stared at him, his gaze profound.

The middle-aged officer, chest echoing with his voice, announced loudly, “I am the executive officer of Nanyu Prefecture’s left wing army. My nis Wang

Meng.”

“Wang Meng, very well. I’ll remember you,” Zhao Huai nodded his head. Wang Meng furrowed his thick brows and asked,

“If you are an imperial envoy from the Imperial Court, you should show your identity. That would ease our minds, rather than standing here in a deadlock.”

He had already decided in his hart to kill or bury any imperial envoy alive and pretend not to know anything.

Zhao Huai shook his head and said lightly, “I am neither a criminal nor a devil cultivator, nor an imperial envoy from the Imperial Court.” Wang Meng looked puzzled and asked, “So who are you?”

Zhao Huai struck a dignified stance, took a step forward, and said nonchalantly, “I am Zhao Huai.” Zhao Huai?

Sounds familiar.

Wang Meng muttered to himself.

Suddenly, he remembered someone.

A person who had been dead for a long time.

Wang Meng looked at Zhao Huai and asked hesitantly, “You… are the Crown Prince of the Yan Empire?”

This news reached the ears of the surrounding Dragon Riders of the Yan.

It immediately stirred a commotion among them!

Several Yan military officers looked shocked and began to whisper to each other.

“What? This man claims to be the Royal Crown Prince?””ls it true?”

“I don’t know, there’s no news about it. The general never said anything.”

“If it’s true, the Royal Crown Prince would be too young. I am even older than him.

During this discussion amongst the generals… “You’re claiming to be the Royal Crown Prince, can you prove it?” A thunderous voice echoed from the end of the street.

Zhao Huai looked up.

A towering figure with a golden tiger face was slowly approaching.

Seeing him, the soldiers of the Dragon Riders of the Yan all saluted him from their horses with solemn expressions:

“Greetings, general!”

“Greetings, general!”

Even Wang Meng, who had just shown off confidently, quickly rushed over to bow and say:

“Greetings, General.”

Hu Yunjiao lightly nodded and turned his meaningful gaze to Zhao Huai:

“Words alone are not enough proof. How can you confirm your identity as the prince? If it’s just talk, I’m afraid it will not be convincing.”

Hearing this, Zhao Huai gently smiled.

“In that case, I’ll not hide it any longer.”

He pulled out a jade seal engraved with a white dragon from his storage ring.

This was not just a jade seal, this was also an ancestral weapon of the Yan Empire!

If needed, it could transform into a gem-shaped treasured mirror.

But now, it was in the form of a jade seal.

Zhao Huai looked at the white jade imperial dragon seal in his hand, which was stamped with red ink. It had four characters on it –

‘Mandated by Heaven, blessed with eternal prosperity.’

“The Imperial Jade Seal of Yan is here! His Majesty himself is present, why do you not kneel?!”

At this moment,

Zhao Huai raised the white jade imperial dragon seal high and declared in a loud voice.

A terrifying pressure, like a vast sea, erupted from his body.

A surge of magic power infused into the dragon seal. An invisible wave of energy emanated from Zhao Huai, spreading out and sweeping in all directions.The source of this content ɪs ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet

“Roar!”

The dragon symbolizing the country’s fortune rose into the sky, releasing a furious roar.

The sound echoed between heaven and earth, continuing to resonate.

At this moment.

Without a hint of hesitation.

The great general Hu Yunjiao was the first to kneel and pay his respects: “Great Protector General of Yan, Hu Yunjiao, welcomes the Crown Prince!”

The executive officer of the Left Army, Wang Meng, also kneeled without any reservations, struck his chest with his fist, and solemnly said: “Great Yan’s Rebellion Quelling General Wang Meng, welcomes the Crown Prince!” Many other officers of the Yan army followed suit.

“Ningyuan General Li Zhongxiao, greets the Royal Crown Prince!” “Loyal Martial Commander He Rendong, greets the Royal Crown Prince!” “Sky Battalion’s Chen Yi, greets the Royal Crown Prince!”

Then thousands of Yan’s Dragon Riders wearing the Blood Scale Jade Armor, with respect and fanaticism on their faces, gazed at the terrifying aura emanating from the sky. They then roared from deep within: “The Dragon Riders of Yan greet the Royal Crown Prince!”

“The Dragon Riders of Yan greet the Royal Crown Prince!” The combined voices of everyone sounded like thunder from the sky.

Meanwhile.

On the northern border of the Xia Country.

Among the hills, within the yellow sand, numerous shadows could be seen.

The Iron Slaughter Cavalry, riding black wolves, crossed through mountains and fortresses.

Heading straight south.

In the unseen heights above the Northern Wolf Empire, a shadowy wolf was watching the Xia Empire in the east.

The Red-eyed Golden Dragon was facing off the shadowy wolf across the desert.

It formed a triangle with the white dragon that appeared in the south.
