After Zhu An finished eating the chicken noodle soup, he walked out of the inn and continued along the official road.
In the middle of the road, there are gradually more and more carriages of all kinds, including many tall horses and brocade carriages, all heading forward.
Sometimes there was even a long convoy, with dozens of carriages lined up in a neat row, following closely behind each other, their wheels rolling away in the sky full of smoke and dust.
There will also be servants driving their cars, whipping their whips, shouting "give way", and speeding all the way.
Pedestrians on both sides ducked and ate a mouthful of ashes, but could only mutter a few complaints.
After all, the people sitting in these fancy cars might be practitioners. It would be bad if someone cursed loudly and let others hear it.
Zhu An saw the pedestrians chatting next to him and approached him with great interest, "Brothers, is there any big event ahead? It's so lively."
Pedestrians glanced at him and saw that this young man was dressed in simple ge clothes. He did not look like a city dweller, but his temperament was clear and his eyes were lively, which made a good impression on others. So they nodded and explained to me one by one:
"Ahead is Changling City, the fiefdom of Prince Song. The old prince is about to celebrate his 600th birthday!"
"Tsk tsk, the whole city is holding a feast with fish and meat. If you go in and say a few auspicious words, you will have a full meal."
"The old prince is really a kind man."
"What a good man, the old prince is the pillar of the human race! He has guarded the border for three hundred years and made countless military exploits. Even His Majesty the Human Emperor praised him endlessly. What the hell do you know..."
Halfway through the introduction, everyone started arguing again, arguing about who was stronger and weaker between the old prince and the currently popular King Qingyang.
Every human king represents a legendary story, which the common people are familiar with and enjoy talking about.
They didn't know whether King Changling was the strongest, but there was no doubt that he had lived the longest.
The king guarded the side court and fought fiercely with the demon clan for hundreds of years, accumulating hidden wounds all over his body. It was often difficult for him to live long, and many people would die at the age of three or four hundred years.
King Changling can live to be 600 years old, which is considered a rare longevity star.
This old prince stopped fighting many years ago, returned to Changling to retire, and withdrew from the ranks of the eight kings in the town. However, as long as he is still alive, his influence will not diminish at all.
Above the court and in the army, there are still countless children and disciples of the Changling Song family. This is a profound accumulation of hundreds of years, and other respected kings are far behind.
As a result, today's grand occasion was created.
On the official roads in the southeast, northwest and north, a long line of carriages lined up, like an endless stream, heading towards Changling City at the same time.
There were also tens of thousands of people walking and driving mule carts. Naturally, they were not qualified to go to the prince's palace to celebrate his birthday. They just planned to go to the city, have a flowing banquet, and enjoy the old prince's happiness.
Zhu An mingled inside, happily feeling the lively atmosphere, just like celebrating a festival in his previous life. In front of him, there was a large area of Uyang, Wuyang, full of moving heads.
People are such strange animals. Even if they don't do anything, if they get together, their joyful mood can be contagious.
After walking for more than an hour, we finally arrived at Changling City.
The city wall of Changling is not high, just like Guangping City, but the area is much larger. The walls on both sides spread out, and you can't see the edges at a glance.
The city gate was wide open. Because there were too many people, the guards did not search and simply let them all in. They were confident and not afraid of anything happening.
Nowadays, there are many masters gathered in the city, and there are practitioners everywhere. Just at the top of the city, there are a bunch of body-training warriors. Daring to cause trouble at this time is no different than seeking death.
Zhu An blended in with the crowd and slowly squeezed into Changling City. He glanced around, looked at the smiling people, and sighed secretly.
It was a grand event for all people to enjoy together, and he couldn't bear to mess with it.
The joy on everyone’s faces is so precious.
"Then let's do it decently."
After making up his mind, Zhu An took his time and slowly approached the palace in the center of the city...
Changling Prince's Mansion has high walls, deep courtyards, towering pavilions, and staggered eaves. Although it is decorated with lights and colors everywhere, it still cannot hide its formidable atmosphere.
In the deepest part of the palace, there is a quiet room.
King Changling has white beard and hair, wearing a scholar's robe, with his waist bent, sitting quietly on a chair.
On his wrinkled face, he has a distinctive pair of snow-white eyebrows, which are long and curved. The tips of his eyebrows hang down from both sides of his eyes and are level with his temples. They are exactly the same as the old longevity star in the folk picture album.
Ordinary people would think that he was an old man about to enter his grave.
As everyone knows, this pure body refiner at the peak of the Five Realms still has the same combat power as before.
Although he has retired and returned to his hometown long ago, and no longer takes action, his rickety body still contains terrifying explosive power under careful care.
Several human kings came to similar conclusions after visiting their homes:
King Changling should not be underestimated!
But at this moment, this powerful and respected old prince did not show the joy of his six hundredth birthday. Instead, he squinted his eyes slightly, his eyes flickering, and his mood seemed not very calm.
"Last night, I actually dreamed about sir."
