Chapter 1330 Long Fangyu



Alex, the two elders, 20 Alchemists, 20 assistants, and the commander got onto the large teleportation formation that could easily fit 2000 people inside of it.

Alex was quite surprised at the size of the teleportation formations as most other continents had rather small formations that could take maybe 200 people at once. 

Alex could also see just how old the formation was from the slowly fading surface of where he was standing. It wouldn't be long before these people had to fix this formation, but since it was made up of metal, they were probably used to it.

Between Metal and Stone, Metal had the advantage of not having to worry about how the Qi was being delivered to it as it was capable of equally distributing all Qi it was given.

As such, the people could also fix it whenever it broke by just asking someone with the Metal dao for help. A person like that could quickly fix up the places where it was broken within an hour.

The formation was activated and Alex felt the teleportation aura grab onto him. The next second, he was teleported away. 

As soon as Alex arrived on the other side, he noticed 3 distinct things.

First, the Qi around him was much, much thicker than what he was used to. In fact, it was thicker than anywhere he had been in all the world, including the White Tiger's palace, The Demon realm where the Black Tortoise lived, and Scarlet's dome. 

Second, the people around him were a lot stronger than him, and there were many of them. Alex wasn't even there for 2 seconds, and he could already sense at least 4 Saint transformation realm cultivators, who weren't even hiding their cultivation base.

Alex didn't think this was a ploy to intimidate him and the others, but rather that they were all simply used to being around people with similar strength to them so they had no reason to hide anything.

Finally, there were many people waiting for them. Astoundingly many. And each one of them looked rather important too, going by their clothes.

"Your Royal Highness," the commander spoke all of a sudden when he saw someone important in the crowd.

He got off the formation and gave a deep bow toward a man that looked about as old as Bai Jingshen did in his human form. He looked to be in his 30s, but Alex had no way of telling just how old this man was.

'Is this the Emperor?' he wondered. There was a very old image of the Dragon Emperor, and the man that stood before him looked somewhat like him. He wore regal clothes with azure dragon embroidery all over them and had a small patch of beard just like the image Alex saw.

However, he wasn't called 'Majesty', but rather, 'Highness' so it couldn't be the emperor at all. 

"Thank you, Commander Jianyu. You will be greatly rewarded for bringing our important guests through such a treacherous route," the young man said as he opened a golden paper fan with a blue dragon inside of it that almost looked like it moved around the fan.

The commander thanked the man and moved away to the side as his job here was done. 

A very old man with a thick white beard and a dark birthmark on the left side of his face was the first to speak to him.

"Welcome to the Dragon Capital, your Majesty King Alex, and our friends from the Southern Continent," the old man spoke. "This humble one is Long Huogang, and I would like to introduce His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince of the Azure Imperium, Long Fanyu."

"My warmest welcomes to you and your people, King Alex," the crown prince spoke and bowed toward Alex and the others in respect.

The others behind him bowed as well and spoke words of welcome.

"My warmest greetings as well, Crown Prince Fangyu," Alex spoke to the man that was not the Dragon Emperor, but his son. 

"We have carriages ready to take you away, King Alex. If you and others would follow me," the Crown Prince said and showed them all the way out of the building.

Alex nodded and started walking, the two elders walking on either side of him. Behind them, the rest followed.

Yao Ning had a blank look on her face, her wrinkled face giving away no emotion for anyone else to read.

Liang Shufen was bright, happy, and full of smiles, enchanting many of the people that were around them.

Alex on the other hand looked handsome and regal with the royal robes he wore that had many phoenix-like birds embroidered onto them. His long jet-black hair flowed in the wind as he walked.

As soon as they were out of the building, Alex and the others saw a large number of people, either on the street or in the houses, that were gathered there to just see them.

Alex and the rest were made to walk through a large, empty space when going to the large carriages that were prepared for them.

The crowd cheered at the sight of them, but Alex wasn't sure if the cheer was for him or the crown prince in front of him who was waving his hands around at the many people around him.

From what he could tell, it was the both of them, but the crown prince was definitely being cheered for more.

The smiling man who waved to his subjects looked ever the more king-like than anyone else Alex had seen till now, and he was still only a prince.

The carriage they were getting on was truly large with the middle portions entirely open so everyone could see outside and inside all the same. It wasn't a carriage that was made with people's privacy in mind at all.

Alex got on first, sitting towards the front with Yao Ning and Liang Shufen on either side of him. The 40 other people came in with Hao Ya sitting away from them, trying to be as inconspicuous as she could be.

The crown prince finally got in last, walking to the front of sitting down opposite Alex. The old man named Long Huogong had also entered along with him as well as a number of people that Alex wasn't introduced to yet.

He checked the two people's cultivation bases and could tell that the prince was around Saint Transformation 4th realm, while the old man next to him was much stronger than Saint Transformation 6th realm.

The others were around the same range as well.

The crown prince looked outside and waved at the crowd once more before speaking to the rider at the front to move the carriage.

The carriage smoothly started moving and soon they were going through an open road that was cleared for the day just for them.

"May I ask where we are heading to right now?" Alex asked the Crown Prince. "Are we heading to the Palace?"

"I'm afraid it will take a while before we can go to the palace," the prince said. "Right now, we're heading to the Royal School of Alchemy where everyone has been eagerly waiting for your arrival."
