This small green mountain is more than sixty miles away from Tengshe City, so the journey is not too far.
However, Ji Liao and Qingxue could not fly away in the air, so they relied on their feet to walk on a winding path in the mountains and forests, which took a lot of effort.
It was only a journey of more than sixty miles, and it took them more than three hours to get out of the forest and onto a main road paved with bluestones.
This main road is extremely wide, about four to five feet long, and goes straight forward between a gap between two mountains.
At this time, there were many pedestrians and carriages coming and going on the main road. These people were dressed in different costumes. Some were traveling businessmen carrying luggage, while others were Snake monks who were not high in cultivation but had great arrogance.
However, most of them were young men and women wearing brocade robes. It seemed that they, like Ji Liao and Qingxue, were rushing to Teng She City to listen to Zhen Ling'er's preaching, so when Ji Liao and Qingxue arrived here It didn't attract even the slightest attention.
"Qing Pheasant, after passing those two mountains, we are near Soaring Snake City." When they reached the main road, Qing Xue pointed towards the distance and said.
"Yeah!" Ji Liao responded without changing his expression.
Although there was no expression on his face, his heart was filled with excitement unconsciously.
Arriving at Soaring Snake City means that he is one step closer to the purpose of his trip, and it also means that he and Zhen Hantian are getting closer.
Ji Liao has a deep understanding of Zhen Huantian's power. When he and Zhen Huantian were beaten, he was unable to fight back. He was so easily suppressed by Zhen Huantian and kept there for twenty years, suffering all kinds of torture. , if it weren't for Zhen Ling'er, Ji Liao would still be suppressed there.
Although he has grown up now and has a slight chance of winning against the Nascent Soul Stage monks, he knows that this method of his is fundamentally unacceptable to Zhen Hantian.
"Teng She City has a lot of rules. After you enter the city, follow me. Remember to be careful about your words and actions. If you encounter anything unpleasant, just be patient. Don't make trouble in Teng She City." Qingxue warned Ji. Liao shouted.
"I know." Ji Liao replied.
The two of them walked towards Soaring Snake City. Qingxue kept talking along the way, telling Ji Liao some things about Soaring Snake City.
Ji Liao also learned a little more about Soaring Snake City through Qingxue's words.
It turns out that Soaring Snake City was built on a mountain range rich in spiritual energy. It covers a huge area and is the most prosperous place in the entire Snow Demon Snake Clan and even the entire Eternal Snow Region.
At the same time, Tengshe City is divided into inner and outer parts.
The outer city contains some business hotels and the like, while the inner city is the center of the Snow Demon Snake Clan. Those who are qualified to live in the inner city for a long time are almost all above the Golden Core stage, and there are also many Nascent Soul stage monks. , even some people with low cultivation level are still the proud sons of the great race in the Snake Clan.
To put it simply, the outer city is where people like them who have no strength or influence stay. When they get to the inner city, they can't afford to offend anyone.
As time went by, Ji Liao and Qingxue had reached the foot of the two peaks. Ji Liao suddenly
He remembered something, and then asked, "By the way, is the goddess preaching in the inner city or the outer city?"
"Of course it's in the outer city. There are too many people from the Snow Demon Snake Tribe. How can we be allowed to enter the inner city." Qingxue replied without any doubt.
Ji Liao nodded, feeling a little at ease.
As long as he doesn't enter the inner city, it will put some distance between him and Zhen Hantian.
It would be a lie to say that Ji Liao is not afraid of Zhen Huantian. It is not only due to Zhen Huantian's terrifying strength, but also because he wants to kidnap his daughter this time. It would be strange if Zhen Huantian doesn't risk his life with him.
There are so many masters in the inner city, and Zhen Ling'er is so conspicuous, Ji Liao might be the one to attract hatred.
At the moment, Ji Liao only knows a little bit about Soaring Snake City from Qingxue's words and has not seen it with his own eyes, so Ji Liao hasn't figured out what to do next, so he can only wait until he sees the situation in Soaring Snake City.
These two mountains are extremely towering. Walking between the two mountains, the sky and the earth are blocked by these two mountains, and the light becomes dim.
This mountain road is about three or four miles long. You can see the bright light at the end, but you can't see clearly what's inside.
Ji Liao and Qingxue walked forward and occasionally exchanged a few words. It didn't take long before they reached the end of the mountain road.
As soon as he stepped out, the dazzling sunlight poured down instantly.
Ji Liao's eyes flashed slightly.
The first thing that caught their eyes was the gate of Soaring Snake City, which was opposite them across a square.
This city gate is incredibly large, with a length of several miles from north to south. The two huge stone gates are like the open doors of the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace.
There are two huge sculptures on both sides of the city gate.
This sculpture is about 500 feet high. It depicts two soaring snakes with their fleshy wings spread out. The body of the soaring snake reaches straight into the sky, but its head hangs down, its mouth is slightly open, and a pair of big eyes looks down at all living beings. The aura is extremely terrifying. .
But there are two such huge statues, the whole is one and the same, as if they were carved from two adjacent mountains.
The square in front of them is paved with huge and flat white jade stone slabs, covering an area of more than a thousand acres. It is crowded with people, and at a glance, more than ten thousand people can be seen, swarming into Soaring Snake City. .
"That's Soaring Snake City! How about it! Look majestic!" Qingxue pointed at the gate of Soaring Snake City and said.
"Hehehe, this is the only one I've seen in my life." Ji Liao nodded and replied in agreement.
"Let's go, we have to find an inn when we get to the city."
Before arriving at the gate, Ji Liao found that there was no guard at the gate.
Ji Liao thought about it and smiled.
"With the strength of Soaring Snake City, no one dares to make trouble here." Ji Liao thought to himself.
As soon as they entered the city gate, various hawking sounds came in.
Ji Liao looked around and saw extremely wide strips of trees.
The buildings in Baiyu Street are almost the same as those of the human race. The only difference is that the buildings in Soaring Snake City are mostly made of stone, while those of the human race are mostly made of wood.
There are many shops on all sides, but they are very well-organized. Even the appearance of the shops seems to have a prescribed location. They do not occupy half of the street, giving a prosperous atmosphere.
Soaring Snake City is really too big. Although a large number of people poured in at this time, they were spread out in the city and it was not crowded.
Qingxue led Ji Liao in a familiar way, twisting and turning to a street, and walked for a while before stopping in front of an inn.
"Hey, you two gentlemen, are you going to stay at an inn when the goddess preaches tomorrow?" As soon as the two of them stood firm, an excited waiter came up to them.
"I stayed with you last time. Open a room for us..." Qingxue hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Ji Liao beside him before changing his words and said, "Open two ordinary rooms."
"Okay, you two, please come in." The waiter responded and led Ji Liao and Qingxue in first.
As soon as we entered the hall, the noise from the outside world immediately subsided a bit.
The lobby covers an area of about ten acres, and the decoration is quite grand, but it is sparsely populated, with only a few tables scattered here and there.
Ji Liao and Qingxue arrived on the second floor.
"Guest officer, these two rooms are yours." The waiter said, pointing to the two connected guest rooms.
"Here, here is the rent, and the remaining one is for you." Qingxue waved her hand, and threw three low-grade spiritual stones.
The waiter reached out and took it with a smile on his face, "Thank you, thank you so much."
"Young man, I'm going down now. If anything happens, just call me." After the waiter said this, he turned around and went downstairs.
Ji Liao and Qingxue looked at each other and smiled, without saying anything more, they each entered the room.
With a creak, Ji Liao closed the door.
Then he let out a long breath.
"After a day of walking on the mountain road, I can finally rest." Ji Liao smiled bitterly.
Imagine that since he established the foundation, this is the first time he has walked such a long distance on two legs.
After taking a look at the room, I saw that the furnishings inside were not surprising. Except for a wooden bed with a curtain and two chairs, there was nothing else.
After all, it's just an ordinary room, so how can it be as satisfactory as it is?
Arriving at the open window, Ji Liao put his hands behind his hands and looked at the scene outside the street for a while, then returned to the wooden bed and sat down, starting to think about how to contact Zhen Ling'er.
"Although this Soaring Snake City is unguarded on the surface, it must not be like this secretly. The place where Zhen Ling'er is must also be the core area of Soaring Snake City. Judging from the current situation, if I want to enter the inner city, I will take the initiative to find Zhen. Ling'er is impossible, so the only thing left is to take a look tomorrow when Zhen Ling'er is preaching.
There is no chance yet. "Ji Liao analyzed the situation in front of him and whispered in his heart.
"Hey..." Ji Liao sighed and turned over and lay on the bed.
The sun is setting in the west and the sun is setting low, but Soaring Snake City is still very lively.
Ji Liao's eyelids were slightly closed, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
At this moment, a sudden commotion was heard on the streets outside.
"Hey, look what that is."
"That's... that's the sedan chair of the goddess. The goddess is going to the palace in the outer city."
"How is this possible? How could the goddess pass by here this time?"
"Then who knows, let's get out of the way quickly. Anyone who blocks the goddess's sedan will be punished by death for treason."
Then the people on the street became swarming and fled in two places.
Ji Liao, who seemed to be sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes. As soon as light came out of his eyes, he sat up like a spring.
