Chapter 243: Return to the Sunset Cloud City!
Just like that, Ye Chen and Seventh Senior Sister traveled together.
Finally, in half a month’s time.
They saw Sunset Cloud City.
Sunset Cloud City, which Eldest Senior Sister guarded for Ye Chen, was waiting for Ye Chen to return.
Ye Chen realized.
It had been seven to eight months since he left.
He and Eldest Senior Sister had not seen each other for seven to eight months. Soon, a year had pa.s.sed.
Many things had happened in the past year, but now, Ye Chen had finally returned.
On the flying sword.
Ye Chen was carrying Seventh Senior Sister.
Seventh Senior Sister Zhao Xiyao looked at the city below and quickly asked, “Little Chen, is this Sunset Cloud City?”
Ye Chen nodded. Because the two of them were in the sky, they could not see the city clearly, so Zhao Xiyao did not know about the city below.
Zhao Xiyao did not expect this.
Perhaps she was too forgetful with her little junior brother, and the two of them were having too much fun, so she lost track of time.
She felt that she had arrived at the Sunset Cloud City not long after she left the Heavenly Demon City.
“I’ve been gone for seven or eight months, and now I’m finally back!” Zhao Xiyao said.
Ye Chen nodded and said, “Yes, I can finally see Eldest Senior Sister.”
As for Eldest Senior Sister…
Ye Chen could not help but think about the woman who had given him his first time.
Now that he was back, the person he wanted to see the most was his Eldest Senior Sister, Xu Qiuya.
Then, it was his mother.
“It’s been so long. I wonder how Sunset Cloud City is doing?” Zhao Xiyao asked.
“We’ll find out when we go down!” Ye Chen said calmly.
…
Sunset Cloud City.
In the governor’s mansion.
A woman in red was in the governor’s mansion.
At this moment, an officer came in and said, “Governor, the master of Silvermoon City outside requests to see you!”
The woman in red was Ye Chen’s Eldest Senior Sister, Xu Qiuya.
She was wearing a light and simple red dress with golden cloud patterns. A golden belt was tied around her waist.
A bright red flame was drawn between her eyebrows. The woman held her hands and danced. Her expression was bright and elegant, but there was a hint of arrogance and sharpness in it.
The woman was very beautiful. She wore a gold-plated b.u.t.terfly dress, a red satin dress, a jade satin dress, and a pair of gold-plated red suede boots. She was already very rich, but when she wore this girl…it was as if she was already wealthy.
The white fox fur that was revealed by the side of the red crane cloak had a silver glow to it. It was truly lively and radiant.
Xu Qiuya’s appearance was exceptional. She did not wear any makeup, making her look even more beautiful. She was delicate and beautiful, like the most beautiful cloud that flew from the sky in the direction of a great brocade. The light of the sun shone down on the slightly desolate autumn scenery, it made her look even more like a blooming spring flower. Her fierce look faded away, and her gaze was a little lost. She was like a young beast that was teasing others, attracting everyone’s attention to her.
She asked softly, “What is he doing here?”
“Reporting to the City Lord, he seems to be here to propose a marriage!” The officer immediately said.
At this moment, the woman in red immediately frowned.
She said coldly, “Didn’t I say that anyone who comes to propose a marriage will be rejected?”
“But Silvermoon City is powerful, we…”
Xu Qiuya nodded and then said indifferently, “I understand.”
Xu Qiuya actually also understood that Silvermoon City was the neighboring city of their Sunset Cloud City. Moreover, Silvermoon City was powerful, and the City Lord of Silvermoon City was a Transcending Tribulation Realm expert. Therefore, their Sunset Cloud City really could not afford to offend him.
Ye Chen knew which guards did not dare to obstruct the young master of Silvermoon City.
In that case, he could only act on his own.
Xu Qiuya slowly walked out.
This sort of thing did not happen once or twice.
Many times, there were high-ranking officials and dignitaries who came to ask for Xu Qiuya’s hand in marriage, but they were all rejected by Xu Qiuya.
After all, Xu Qiuya was the City Lord personally appointed by the Emperor of the Eastern Empire. So, even if Xu Qiuya rejected, they did not dare to act rashly.
Xu Qiuya arrived at the guest hall.
At this moment, she saw an elegant young man dressed in green holding a folding fan and waiting in the hall.
She saw that the man was extremely handsome. His facial features were as distinct as a sculpture, and his angular face was exceptionally handsome. He appeared to be unrestrained on the outside, but his eyes inadvertently revealed a sharp light that no one dared to underestimate.
His lips were like warm jade, and a few strands of long purple hair on his forehead fluttered in the wind. His features were like a painting, and his clothes were as white as snow. Half of them were draped over his shoulders, and the other half was wrapped in bandages.
Under the light of the night pearls that were as elegant as fog, his slightly wet long hair clung tightly to his skin that was as fine as porcelain. His slightly tender face, his breathtakingly beautiful eyes, and his lips were as beautiful as cherry blossoms.
At a glance, one could tell that he was an elegant and handsome young man.
However, Xu Qiuya was not interested in any handsome young man.
She already had her own junior brother, so she would not be interested in anyone else.
Xu Qiuya came to the hall.
At this moment, the young man in green clothes immediately said, “Greetings, City Lord!”
Xu Qiuya looked at the young man in green clothes calmly and said, “You are…?”
“I am Zhao Qi, the son of the City Lord of Silvermoon City,” the young man in green clothes said politely.
Xu Qiuya did not want to waste time with him and asked directly, “Oh, the young man of Silvermoon City? May I know why you are here in Sunset Cloud City?”
