Chapter 274 The Great Qing Dynasty Arrived In Heavenly Wolf City, And Everyone Was Excited!
"Since that's the case, National Teacher, should we send troops to support His Majesty?"
In the grand hall, a general suddenly stepped forward and spoke in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Du Yulin let out a sigh and shook his head slowly. "No, His Majesty's whereabouts are currently unknown, indicating that he has other ideas or plans. If we rashly dispatch a large army for support, it will surely arouse the vigilance of the various forces in Awakening Heaven Domain. It may even hinder His Majesty's grand plan!"
"But National Teacher, we are currently outnumbered by the enemy. What should we do? We can't just sit and wait for death!" The general furrowed his brow, clearly tormented by the tension of these past few days.
"Ah..." Du Yulin let out a deep sigh, filled with worries.
But in the end, he firmly waved his hand and said, "Stick to the original plan. Order the entire army to be on guard, awaiting His Majesty's instructions and preparing for battle. At the same time, closely monitor the situation within Great Qin and Heavenly Wolf City. If there are any changes, report immediately!"
As his words fell, the civil officials nodded in agreement.
"We will follow the National Teacher's orders!"
Du Yulin glanced at the ministers in the grand hall and then turned to leave.
Watching Du Yulin's departing figure, the ministers exchanged glances, their eyes filled with a bitter smile and worry.
"Ah~"
"Ah!"
Accompanied by sighs, the ministers gradually dispersed, leaving the grand hall empty.
...
Meanwhile, inside Heavenly Wolf City.
On the bustling streets.
Several majestic and extraordinary beasts pulled a luxurious and extravagant flying carriage, speeding from a distance and landing outside Heavenly Wolf City.
This was a carriage radiating a dazzling light, made entirely of pure and transparent black ice, surrounded by a layer of light blue mist, like a dreamy and ethereal fairyland, stunning to behold.
The top of the carriage was adorned with a lifelike phoenix spreading its wings, vivid and lifelike, as if it could take flight from the carriage at any moment!
When the wheels rolled over the void, they even created ripples, as if treading on clouds.
Clearly, this was an invaluable treasure carriage!
Surrounding the carriages were hundreds of female guards dressed in black armor, with beautiful appearances and graceful figures.
The strength of these female guards was unfathomable, their aura mysterious. They exuded a strong sense of decisiveness, clearly women who had experienced real battles and were not mere decorations.
Among them, one of the female guards held a golden flag that fluttered in the wind.
On it was written a powerful and vigorous golden character - 'Qing'!
The cultivators of Awakening Heaven Domain in Heavenly Wolf City looked at this scene before them, their expressions filled with confusion. They stopped and watched, whispering to each other.
"'Qing'?"
"Who are they? Why haven't I heard of a sect called Qing in Awakening Heaven Domain?"
"Neither have I. Moreover, these people seem to be all women. When did Awakening Heaven Domain have an additional female sect?"
"I don't know. I think they might be from some hidden family or sect."
Just as the crowd was discussing in confusion, a cultivator with rich experience shook his head and sneered, "Heh, stop guessing. These women are clearly from the Great Qing Dynasty of the Wind Spirit Domain!"
Great Qing Dynasty?
Upon hearing the explanation from that cultivator, the onlookers suddenly realized.
No wonder they hadn't heard of them. So they were from the Wind Spirit Domain.
And these people also secretly marveled. No wonder these women looked so young and beautiful, yet possessed unfathomable cultivation.
"I see."
"No wonder they look so formidable."
"That's right. It is said that the people of the Great Qing Dynasty are brave and skilled in battle. They have even destroyed two dynasties of the Wind Spirit Domain, displaying great might."
"Not only that, the Great Qing Dynasty also has its own guardian beast, rumored to be extremely terrifying, even more powerful than the White Tiger in our Awakening Heaven Domain's Forbidden Land!"
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect people from the Great Qing Dynasty to come to our remote little city."
"Hehe, I guess they must be here to take revenge on the Great Qin."
"This will be interesting!"
...
The surrounding cultivators discussed and looked up at the flying carriage in the sky, their eyes filled with envy and astonishment.
"However, I heard that there was a major purge in the Great Qing Dynasty recently. The former emperor, Li Chengtian, died in the Great Qin. The current emperor is an empress named Li Qingluo, who was originally a princess of the Great Qing Dynasty."
At this moment, a cultivator remembered something and suddenly reminded the others.
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caused everyone to exclaim in surprise.
"What?"
"Li Qingluo? The original little princess of the Great Qing Dynasty?"
"I didn't expect her to become the new empress of the Great Qing Dynasty. I heard she is as beautiful as a Celestial Immortal. I really want to see her in person..."
"She is indeed beautiful, but I prefer her ruthless and merciless side. It is said that she killed many opposing voices in order to become the empress of the Great Qing Dynasty. The capital of the Great Qing Dynasty is already flowing with blood. Every time I hear news about her, I can't help but shudder."
"Shh~ Are you looking for trouble? Can we talk about this kind of thing?"
The crowd fell silent, but their eyes still carried a hint of excitement.
After all, the Great Qing Dynasty is the ruler of the Wind Spirit Domain, with vast territories and extremely strong power.
Now, as the little princess of the Great Qing Dynasty ascends to the throne and rules over all directions, such a powerful presence appears before them. Who wouldn't want to seize the opportunity to gain favor?
At this moment, these female guards surrounded the carriage and slowly drove into Heavenly Wolf City.
"Neigh—!"
A neigh suddenly resounded.
The carriage stopped, and the curtain of the carriage slowly lifted, revealing an unparalleled beauty inside.
She was wearing a light yellow silk dress, with a jade pendant tied around her waist. Her skin was as tender as jade, her features were stunning, her eyes were like autumn water, as if they could capture one's soul.
Between her eyebrows, there was a blooming peony flower ornament, adding a touch of charm, making her look particularly enchanting.
She extended her slender and fair hand to push open the window and looked outside.
"This is Heavenly Wolf City?"
The girl's voice was crisp and pleasant, like pearls falling on a plate, clear and clean, as if it were the sound of silver bells, making people feel very comfortable.
Two women dressed in black armor respectfully lifted the curtain.
Then, a slender and graceful figure slowly appeared before everyone's eyes.
Her figure was slender and graceful, her posture was exquisite and charming, her legs were round and straight, her waist was slender and soft, and her waist could be held with just one hand.
Coupled with her world-shaking beauty, it was enough to drive any man crazy.
The girl's bare jade feet stepped on the road paved with blue stones, and the bells hanging from her ankles made a tinkling sound. Strands of light fragrance floated in the air, refreshing the heart and mind.
"Your Majesty, please be careful."
Two old women wearing armor walked over and said with concern.
"I'm fine," said the young girl with a smile, waving her hand dismissively, completely devoid of the ruthlessness and cruelty that others had described. She looked around, her eyes searching for something.

PS: The following does not count towards the word count.
Brothers, Lengmian is here today to vent about the things I've encountered these days and also talk about the preparations for my recent engagement, so that those who haven't gotten engaged yet can have a reference and avoid pitfalls!!
These past few days, I've been going to the jewelry stores in the nearby malls, preparing to buy the three pieces of gold during the New Year's activities. After all, the price of gold is too expensive now. The bare gold price is already over 600, and with the processing fee, it reaches nearly 700 per gram. It's like robbing money, but during the New Year's activities, it might be a bit cheaper.
After looking for a few days, my eyes were dazzled. When I closed my eyes before going to sleep at night, all I could see were golden gold. I was almost going crazy. But there's nothing I can do. I have a limited budget, so I have to compare prices from different stores and choose the most cost-effective style.
In the end, after careful consideration, I chose a small brand that I had never heard of before called Zhou Jinsheng. I don't know if anyone has heard of it... Well, the author had never heard of it before, but it was the cheapest option. I checked and found out that it is a legitimate national chain jewelry store, so I chose it.
When buying gold, there are a few things to pay attention to. First, ask about the current gold price per gram and the overall gold price in the market. Then, choose gold jewelry sold by weight, and never buy gold sold at a fixed price, which means gold sold at the marked price!! Remember, remember!!
The fixed price gold can be as high as over 1,000 per gram. It's a trap!! Many salesgirls will first recommend fixed price gold because it has the highest profit margin!!
Also, check if there are any engravings of the store's name and the words "999 pure gold" on the gold. This is very important. Remember, remember!!
In the end, I bought a pair of rings, a necklace, a bracelet, and a wristband, spending about 40,000. I bought around 70 grams, which came out to about 570 per gram.
Gold is really expensive! I can't even earn one gram of gold with several days' worth of manuscript fees. I'm really, so sad...
Originally, I wanted to buy an engagement diamond ring, the one called Dr. Ring that supposedly can only be bought once in a lifetime with an ID card, but that thing is even more expensive! It's outrageously expensive!
A diamond so small that it's almost invisible, and yet they dare to sell it for over 6,000?!
How dare they!!
And also, a men's ring with no diamonds, just a steel-like band, they dare to sell it for over 5,000!
It looks no different from the ring I bought for a few tens of yuan at a jewelry store!
And even during the New Year's holiday, there were no discounts at all!
Their salesgirls proudly told me, "Since our brand was established, we have never offered any price discounts! No matter when you come, it's always this price!"
Me: "........."
Alright, you guys are great, you're amazing. I won't buy it then...
In a couple of days, I'm going to my future father-in-law's house. I'm starting to get nervous... According to my girlfriend, when her dad first found out about me, he was silent and didn't say a word. What does that mean...
