And the reason why Ruan Hongyu came to invite Ling Hao into the forbidden area.
Naturally, he didn't simply want to make friends with Ling Hao, but specially gave him a big gift.
He told Ling Hao the reason directly that day.
The Hongyue Empire has not established a crown prince until now, because its head has been wavering between the eldest prince and the second prince.
Ruan Hongyu and his eldest brother Ruan Hongyuan are very different in personality.
But whether it is in terms of their talent for governing the country or their martial arts skills, the two of them are almost the same.
The leader of the country wanted to use the Forbidden Valley matter to make a choice this time, and gave the two brothers a goal. Whoever can achieve it better will be the crown prince of the Hongyue Empire.
This is the reason why Ruan Hongyu came to Ling Hao. He wanted Ling Hao to help him ascend to the throne of the crown prince.
After all, among the people under the age of forty-five in the Hongyue Empire, there are only a handful of people who can compete with the eighth-grade God Emperor.
If Ling Hao agrees to help, his chances of winning will be much greater!
As for Ling Hao, he specifically asked Pang Yu and Fu Wei a few days ago to inquire about what was going on in the Forbidden Valley.
It is similar to what Ruan Hongyu described before. It is rumored that there are indeed many treasures of heaven and earth and the inheritance of powerful people.
Therefore, for Ling Hao, if he had such an opportunity to explore the Forbidden Valley, why not do it.
As for whether Ruan Hongyu has other purposes, that is not what he is concerned about now.
At the same time, he also briefly inquired with Fu Wei about the situation of Ruan Hongyu and Ruan Hongyuan.
However, Fu Wei didn't know much about them. He only knew that the two brothers had their own characteristics.
Ruan Hongyuan has a rough personality, is domineering and has tough methods.
Ruan Hongyu, on the other hand, feels much more modest. He likes to make friends with people from all walks of life and is relatively low-key.
Of course, this is just how the two of them feel to outsiders. It is difficult to know what kind of character they are behind the scenes.
"As expected of the imperial city in the forbidden world, it's quite majestic!"
At noon, everyone landed on an open space outside the main gate of Hongyue Imperial City. The judge looked in the direction of the city and couldn't help but sigh.
Ling Hao and the others looked around, with a look of admiration also appearing on their faces.
A majestic city gate stands hundreds of meters away, with four paint-red gates that are forty or fifty meters high.
.
The highest point of the entire gate is estimated to be at least a hundred meters high, and the walls on both sides of the city gate are at least seventy or eighty meters high.
About ten meters above the doorway, there are four large Chinese characters of "Hongyue Imperial City" carved with flying dragons and phoenixes.
There are two wide roads entering and exiting below, each about thirty meters wide, with a carriage passage in the middle and pedestrian passages on both sides.
The scale of this city gate alone is much more impressive than the royal cities of Tianfeng and Fengchi Kingdoms.
At this time, under the city gate, there was a constant flow of people coming in and out.
In addition to carriages, you can occasionally see unnamed animals pulling luxurious chariots in and out.
In addition, in the open space outside the city gate, many manned birds landed on the ground from mid-air, and then entered the imperial city in an orderly manner.
Ten minutes later, Ling Hao and others entered the city gate after paying a certain amount of spiritual stones.
"Brother, where are you going now? Are you going directly to the palace compound?" Qinglong looked at Ling Hao and asked.
"No rush!" Ling Hao responded, "Find a hotel close to the palace and settle down first!"
"Okay!" Everyone in Qinglong nodded.
In about thirty or forty minutes, everyone rented a car and drove to a high-end hotel about ten kilometers away from the palace compound.
After checking in, everyone went back to their rooms to wash up briefly before going out to eat.
The front desk of the hotel recommended a restaurant to everyone, which is three or four kilometers away from the hotel.
"The area of this imperial city is really quite large. I guess even if it can't catch up with the capital of our Daxia Kingdom, it probably won't be much different."
After arriving on the street, Qin Yufei couldn't help but sigh.
"Indeed!" Han Yue responded, "Including the people in this city, there are a lot of them!"
"Xiao Fei, Han Yue, you two, please stop sighing." Ye Ji smiled and said.
"It won't take long before the imperial city of our Tianlong Empire will be much more magnificent than this!"
"Hehe, that's true!" Qin Yufei responded with a smile.
Everyone was wandering around and walking towards the restaurant.
Half an hour later, we arrived at the door of the hotel called 'Grand Hyatt' recommended by the hotel front desk.
The restaurant is quite large, covering an area of nearly 10,000 square meters and having six floors in total.
According to the receptionist, the Grand Hyatt is the most high-end hotel in the entire imperial city.
In addition, the front desk also reminded you not to cause trouble in the Grand Hyatt Village, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.
It was lunch time at this time, and there was an endless flow of people at the entrance of the restaurant.
Many of them are high-ranking officials or descendants of large families. They are all well-dressed and have extraordinary bearing. "Please come in, guest!"
As everyone entered the hall, a waiter came over.
"Waiter, is there any room available?" Ye Ji asked.
"Yes, yes, but since it is the dining peak now, there are only two empty seats on the sixth floor. Is that okay?" the waiter responded.
"What is the difference between the sixth floor and the floors below?" the judge asked.
"This must be the first time for some of our guests, right?" The waiter continued after being slightly taken aback.
"The charges in our store are different on different floors. The higher the floor, the more expensive the charges."
"What is the standard for the sixth floor?" the judge continued to ask.
"The fee for the sixth floor is per person. One hundred high-grade spiritual stones per person." The waiter in the shop replied.
"What the hell! Are you robbing money?!" The judge couldn't help but cursed.
"For a meal, each person needs one hundred high-grade spiritual stones. Are you eating dragon meat?"
This price is indeed a bit exaggerated!
It's been a long time since everyone came to the Forbidden Market Space, and we've eaten a lot at restaurants of all sizes.
So far, the most expensive meal I've eaten was only ten high-grade spiritual stones per person. I didn't expect it to cost one hundred yuan per person.
"This person is just joking." The waiter smiled and responded.
"You get what you pay for. If you are objective and don't have a problem with the money, I suggest you give it a try. I guarantee you won't be disappointed."
“Isn’t it delicious and free of charge?
"Xuan Pang replied.
"Uh" the waiter's mouth twitched.
"Husband, maybe they are really expensive, how about we give it a try?" Qin Yuxin looked at Ling Hao and asked.
"Okay!" Ling Hao smiled faintly.
Later, under the leadership of the waiter, everyone arrived at the sixth floor.
Everyone looked around and saw that unlike the noisy and crowded scene on the first floor, the sixth floor seemed very quiet.
There are only ten dining tables placed on the entire sixth floor, and the space of thousands of square meters seems very spacious.
Ling Hao and others chose a large round table by the window and sat down. The dining table was large enough to seat twenty or thirty people at the same time.
There is no need to order food on the sixth floor. The restaurant prepares food per head, so Ling Hao and others also save the trouble of ordering food.
At this time, there were people dining at seven or eight tables on the sixth floor. Judging from the dress and temperament of these people, it was obvious that they were not ordinary people.
After seeing Ling Hao and the others, the people who were dining looked over at the same time.
Most people's eyes were fixed on the beauties Qin Yuxin and Xuan Chenxi. Regardless of whether they were men or women, there was a flash of surprise in their eyes.
There were several young men among them who were already a little bit ready to make a move and wanted to come over and strike up a conversation or two.
However, thinking of the rules in this restaurant, everyone had no choice but to suppress their burning hearts.
The word "sex" has a knife in your head, but you can't put your life on the line just because of a few beauties.
Of course, not everyone is curious.
On a dining table not far from everyone, there was a man sitting alone. He never looked at everyone and was concentrating on tasting the food.
The man is in his mid-thirties, has handsome features, is dressed in a gray robe, has long shawl hair tied into a ponytail, and has a three-foot-long sword placed on the dining table.
The whole person exudes a sense of chilling, giving people a feeling that strangers should not approach him.
"Brother Lu, that man is so strange. He occupies such a large dining table by himself."
After everyone sat down, Qin Yufei approached Lu Yue and spoke softly.
"That person shouldn't be simple!" Lu Yue narrowed his eyes slightly.
