Walking on the busy streets, Hibiscus looked around curiously. Border City could not be said to be prosperous, and even seemed a little barren in her eyes.
"This is the border of the empire, called Frontier City, and it is also an important military location." Yirong explained.
"How can we see troops coming and going in an important military location?" Chen Tian and his group did not immediately go to Sunset City after entering the Tianfu Empire.
Instead, he came to the border city.
This city holds many memories for Chen Tian and Jian Liuzhang. After all, about five years ago, a great battle took place here.
People were walking on the streets of Border City, and when they came to the center, a huge statue caught their attention.
"Hey, there is actually a huge stone statue here?" Hibiscus said curiously.
Chen Tian, Yirong, Jian Liuzhang, Chen Nan, Nanshan, Tianchen and others all had their eyes fixed.
No one said anything, just looked at him.
"Brother Chen, after you left, the people of Border City built a stone statue of your dust-free face to commemorate you for saving this city. It was very sensational in the empire at that time. Later, in order to commemorate you, people built statues in the ancient imperial city and the new city respectively.
The imperial capital has built a stone statue of you."
"This stone statue is Junior Brother Chentian?" Mu Jin asked in surprise, what kind of things did he do to make people build a stone statue to worship.
"Senior sister, when Chen Tian became famous all over the world and became an unparalleled Iron-Blooded Marquis, it was because of the famous Demon Yue War in the Tianfu Empire." Yirong said to Mu Jin.
"Oh, did the conferment of marquises and generals happen in this city?" Mu Jin's eyes flashed with a strong interest, as if everything that happened to Chen Tian was full of legend.
Chen Tian was on the side and naturally heard their discussion, but he did not stop it. Indeed, as Yirong said, this city is of great significance to him.
Recalling his own past, Chentian was young and frivolous at that time, and he poured his blood on the battlefield.
Now that many years have passed, when I think back, I can't help but feel how time flies by so fast.
"There are no strange phenomena in Border City, and the army's logo seems to belong to the Iron-Blooded Army." Chen Nan looked around, and the army was the Iron-Blooded Army's logo, which also showed that the Tianfu Empire was still under their control.
"Well, judging from the traces around it, there should be no war in Border City in these years." In a battle that year, the Demonic Army massacred the entire Border. Now, after reconstruction, the common people and soldiers here seem to be living a peaceful life.
"Brother Chen, after that the imperial capital moved to Sunset City. The former imperial city is now one of the royal cities. However, because the damage was so severe, it almost became an ancient city in people's eyes." Chen Nan said to Chen Tian.
.
Although many things about the Tianfu Empire were mentioned back then, Chen Tian still didn't know these details.
"Then let's go back to Sunset City directly."
Four years have passed, and I don’t know how Liu Yan, Xue Luoxi, and their relatives and friends are doing now. Do they still recognize me? Have they gained weight or lost weight?
Thinking that he would see them soon, Chen Tian suppressed the excitement and excitement in his heart.
"Chen Nan, tell me what happened to the Tianfu Empire after I left." Chen Tian felt a little nervous and uneasy after not returning to his hometown for a long time.
Asked about many things after that.
Chen Nan talked about all the big and small things, including how Liu Yanxueluoxi and the others suppressed the rebellion, and what happened over the years.
"You said Sister Luo Xi and Liu Yan built a bridge between the Ancient Territory and the Tianxin Mountains of the Tianfu Empire, allowing people from the two regions to have friendly exchanges with each other?" This was beyond Chen Tian's expectation.
"Well, now the ancient territory and empire have become one place."
"However, Gujiang suffered heavy losses back then, and many sect ancestors died. I don't know if Gujiang has recovered after so many years." Chen Nan said earnestly.
"Don't worry, I will definitely give everyone an explanation when I return to Gujiang and Tianfu this time." Chen Tian thought that all this was caused by himself, and his heart ached and was full of guilt.
"It's been a long time. Besides, no one regrets it. This time we return from the secret realm, we can compensate them well and help them develop. Chen Tian, you don't need to care too much about the past." Jian Liushang reminded from the side.
.
"Brother Jian, speaking of which, I should also say sorry to you." Chen Tian looked at Jian Liushang, brothers like this, life is enough.
"My brother, you don't have to be polite."
Chen Tian nodded. There were some words that needed to be said between them. When they met, the two of them competed for the Emperor's Spirit Sword, but they never expected that creation would confuse people. Who would have thought that they could reach this point.
"Did Bufan, Wu Xin and the others leave any information back then?" Chen Tian suddenly thought that two brothers had left their hometown.
"They didn't say it, but they said they would come back when they become stronger."
"Are Ming Ye and his brothers buried together?" Chen Tian was silent for a moment when he heard the news, and then asked a question in his heart that he didn't want to touch.
There was sadness in Chen Nan's eyes: "In the back hill of Sunset City, we are buried with our family members."
After hearing this, Chen Tian nodded heavily: "He is indeed our family member."
After returning to Sunset City this time, Chen Tian's first thing was probably to pay homage to those who died in that battle.
At the same time, Chen Tian will use all he has learned over the years to repay Gujiang and Sunset City. Chen Tian will make this small empire grow as quickly as possible.
While their thoughts were swirling, Chentian and the others had already crossed mountains and rivers, passed through ancient cities, and were flying across the sky.
When the scorching sun of dawn shone completely on the land of the Tianfu Empire, Chen Tian and the others finally saw the once familiar yet unfamiliar city in their sights.
Sunset City, this is where everything begins and everything ends.
Back then, Chentian, the city chosen after becoming a lord and becoming a general, witnessed the growth and demise of the unparalleled Iron-Blooded Marquis. However, for the current Sunset City, it has been named the new imperial capital.
Sunset City is now the imperial capital of the Tianfu Empire.
The Chen family lives in this city. After the new emperor ascended the throne, he opened up the ancient territory and imperial trade, allowing the two once incompatible forces to grow with each other and promote the prosperity of the Tianfu Empire in the next few years.
And all of this is thanks to the two empresses of the Tianfu Empire.
"Brother Chen, do you want me to inform them?" When Chen Nan returned to Sunset City, excitement was written on his face.
Chen Tian shook his head: "No, just give them a big surprise."
Chen Tian didn't want to alarm everyone yet, and he didn't want the news of his return to spread so quickly.
Now he just wants to go home quietly and see the people he missed the most, and that's enough.
"Well, okay, let's go directly to the Imperial City." The center of Sunset City, the former Marquis Mansion, has now been expanded into the Imperial City.
The imperial city is heavily guarded, but to Chen Tian and the others, it is as if there is no one around.
The guards and soldiers in the imperial city did not notice the existence of this group of people at all.
But when they entered the imperial city, they could not see any guards or soldiers.
"Is the imperial city always like this on weekdays?" Chen Tian asked strangely.
Chen Nan also showed doubts: "That's not right. There are every sentry within the imperial city. If you want to enter the imperial city, you will be heavily guarded by the Iron-Blooded Army. Even the Flying Eagle Army must guard the imperial city."
"Then why can't we see the defenders today?"
Although the city walls were heavily guarded, there was no one inside the city, which made Chen Tian and others' faces full of doubts.
Chen Tian released his spiritual thoughts, but felt that there were many weak breaths around him, and his life was on the verge of death.
But in a main hall in the imperial city, it was crowded with people, and there were several powerful auras in that hall.
"Well? Is this the aura of the Holy King Realm?" In Chen Tian's mind, he clearly noticed that a strong man of the Holy King Realm was in the palace at this moment.
"Things seem a little unusual." Chen Tian immediately found the faint aura. Not far from them, a group of soldiers fell to the ground, their aura already reaching the edge of life and death.
Chen Nan picked up a soldier: "What happened? How could this happen?"
"Who are you? Oops, someone broke into the palace." The soldier was still breathing, and his breathing was very rapid, as if he wanted to send out a signal to inform the entire Sunset City.
But Chen Tian spoke first: "They are all in the hall, right?"
"right."
"Chen Nan, you stay to save them and use the Miracle Pill to penetrate into their bodies. They cannot swallow it in their current state. I will go to the palace hall first. I want to see who dares to come to the Tianfu Empire.
Making trouble." Chen Tian's tone and expression suddenly became extremely sharp, and he released a killing intent.
He didn't know why, but now that he was in the palace, he could only feel the scent of snow, and Liu Yan didn't seem to be here.
Thinking that someone was causing trouble this time, Chen Tian felt even more uneasy.
But no matter who it is, coming to Tianfu Empire to cause trouble will also threaten the people around him. No matter who he is, he will die.
…
At this time, inside the palace hall.
A group of people dressed in weird costumes took control of the entire palace hall.
In the main hall, several figures were lying on the side, obviously seriously injured, and above the main hall, the figure of the most gorgeous lady attracted attention with every move she made.
At this moment, the crazy sword was guarding the stunning beauty. His body was covered with bloodstains, but he did not move an inch.
"Everyone, what do you think of my master's proposal? Of course, the Snow Queen can refuse it, but the consequences are probably beyond your imagination." The words echoing in the hall were full of domineering words that could not be refused.
