A broken carriage entered the borders of the Meteor Rock Mountain Range. It was driven by a youth with green eyes. Beside him sat a delicate young girl who was constantly whispering in his ear. The two of them were Li Ye and Xu Liqi, who had broken through the God's Army.

"Idiot, can you be faster? Why are you so slow? Right, it's that bend. We'll be there soon." Xu Ruiqi kept whispering into Li Ye's ear.

Li Ye felt his head grow bigger as he spoke, but he had no choice but to ride his horse up the path. When he saw that Xu Liqi was talking nonstop, his expression turned ugly and he begged, "Can't I beg for it? I've been talking about it since yesterday, and I've been thinking about it all day now. I beg you, please don't think about it anymore."

The girl rolled her eyes and clicked her tongue. "Alright, alright. You're not letting me recite it after you've put away my sword. We're almost there."

Li Ye's ugly expression finally regained some spirit. He brandished the horsewhip and rushed towards the finish line.

A short while later, the carriage entered a small teahouse. It was not too big, with a flag, two tables, a few stools and a boss.

Xu Ruiqi jumped down from the carriage and swaggered into the tavern. As she walked, she shouted, "Old Guo, bring me the wine from the bottom of the box. Miss, I'm thirsty."

Old Guo heard the noise and looked outside. Upon seeing the young lady who had left home for a few days, he excitedly fished out a jar of wine from under the counter and hurriedly went to fetch his young lady. He whispered to Xu Ruo Qi, "Miss, be careful. The old master's temper hasn't been very good these few days."

Xu Ruiqi waved her hand and turned to look at Li Ye on the carriage. She shouted, "Idiot, come and drink some wine." With a stern expression, Li Ye got out of the carriage and walked towards the teahouse.

The latter waved his hand and said, "This fool has helped me out a lot and even caused a lot of trouble. I saw he was good at fighting, so I brought him back to see if I can call him up the mountain." After which, he found a clean place in the teahouse and sat down. After sitting down, he called Li Ye in and sat down.

Mr. Guo looked Li Ye up and down, but didn't find anything strange. He walked out of the teahouse, whistled at the sky, and raised his right hand.

A hawk fell from the sky, landing on Mr. Guo's hand, letting out a sharp eagle cry. Mr. Guo caressed the eagle's head, took out a wooden board from his pocket and put it next to the eagle's mouth. He raised his hand, and the eagle with the wooden board flew into the sky and disappeared.

Sitting in the teahouse, Li Ye squinted at Mr. Guo, taking in everything that had happened. He was wondering who Xu Liqi was.

Xu Ruiqi, who was standing to one side, did not make a sound. She placed a hand on Li Ye's shoulder and handed him a glass of wine. "There'll be someone coming soon. Come drink with me for a while."

Li Ye came back to his senses and shook his head slightly. He picked up the tea from the side and took a sip, "I don't drink."

"You're so boring, you don't even drink." Xu Ruiqi gave Li Ye a disdainful look, mumbled something under her breath, and sat down on a stool to drink.

In less than half an incense's time, the sound of fast horses came from afar.

"Guo Tai, where's my daughter?!" A rough voice called out from outside the teahouse.

But no matter how he looked at it, he was not a rich businessman. He was tall and sturdy, with a thick layer of calluses on his hands, and his entire body bulged with well-made clothes.

"Miss is inside." Guo Tai pointed at the teahouse.

The wealthy merchant nodded and walked inside. Seeing a kid sitting next to his daughter, he asked with some suspicion, "Where did this kid come from?"

"I met her in Qingzhou," Xu Liqi replied.

The rich merchant then asked, "He isn't my son-in-law, right?"

Xu Ruiqi looked a little embarrassed. She walked over to the rich merchant and whispered into his ear, "This is not a mountain. We have to explain everything word by word."

The wealthy merchant didn't dare to say anything and could only smile, and politely said: "I don't dare, how about we go home now?"

"Bring this kid along. If I'm not mistaken, he's a land immortal. He'll be useful in the future." Xu Ruiqi pointed at Li Ye.

The wealthy merchant turned his head and looked at Li Ye in surprise. His face was filled with disbelief as he pointed at Li Ye and said uncertainly, "Is it just this kid?" "Land Immortals?" Seeing his daughter nod, the rich businessman had no choice but to believe. He roared at Li Ye: "Kid, come with us."

"Me?" Li Ye pointed at himself and asked Xu Liqi.

"Yes, I'll take you to a good place." The rich merchant nodded, and Ruiqi joined in.

Li Ye nodded and agreed. Seeing that Li Ye agreed as well, Xu Liqi took Li Ye by the hand and ran to the horse of the rich merchant outside the teahouse. She and Li Ye rode the horse out of the eyes of the rich merchant, leaving only one sentence behind, "Father, you go find a horse. We will be leaving first."

The rich businessman looked on as his daughter slowly walked away from him, his eyes slowly turning cold as he said in a deep voice, "Guo Tai, go investigate this kid and clean him up!" I won't allow anyone to place spies around my daughter! " Guo Tai, who was standing aside, bent down and answered with a heavy tone, "Yes."

The businessman looked up at the sky, his face dark as he said to himself, "Don't let me, Xu Baijun, know that you've planted spies next to my daughter, or else I'll risk my life and make the entire Azure Province tremble."

Xu Ruiqi brought Li Ye and walked along a path in the jungle. Li Ye was surprised to see that this path was almost the same size as the five-foot-long path constructed by the Wei. Was the jungle also five-foot-wide? Just what was he going to do?

After passing through the long main road, Li Ye was slightly stunned. In front of Li Ye was a towering city. It stood tall and imposing, like a furious King Kong hidden deep in the forest. How much manpower and material strength was needed to smash out this city?

Looking at Li Ye's stupefied expression, Xu Liqi smiled in satisfaction. She said to Li Ye, "This is the core of our Darkya Army, Dingbei City!"

Although Li Ye had already guessed where they were, upon hearing Xu Liqi's affirmation, Li Ye still harbored his own thoughts. The Langya bandits of Qingzhou were definitely not just simple bandits. There must be some great figure behind them, possibly a giant eagle!

He turned to Li Ye and said solemnly, "Idiot, you have beaten the son of the former general and killed so many God's Army. If you go there, you will definitely die, but it will be different if you do not do so, because you can rest assured that no one will come here to capture you, because there will be no corrupt officials and no rich people. This is the holy land of all those who are oppressed!"

Seeing that Li Ye hadn't answered her yet, Xu Rui Qi became a little anxious. She pointed at his nose and scolded him, "You fool, you really are stupid. What else do you want me to say to me? Do I have to drag you into the city and sign your name before you are willing to join the army?"

Li Ye rolled his eyes at his girl and swaggered into the city with a sword on his back. This was the best reply he could give her.
