I Truly Am The Villian-Chapter 1149 - 1148: North Sea City, The Great Hero Yan Yingzhou

Chapter 1149 -1148: North Sea City, The Great Hero Yan Yingzhou

The Golden-Winged Roc gazed at the sky with a solemn look.

The night sky seemed washed clean, clear and void of any clouds or moonlight.

Only on the southeastern side, a few stars were flickering in a sporadic brightness.

A gale surged, and another Golden-Winged Roc flew by.

Its wings were like blades, and its entire body shimmered with gold; its eyes were as sharp as daggers.

“Great Ancestor, what is the matter?” The newly arrived Golden-Winged Roc asked.

“I observed the Heaven Phenomenon at night. The Monster Star in the east is dimming, our Monster Race’s fortunes have waned again,” the Roc on the mountaintop said lightly.

“Go down and investigate, has anything significant happened in the Nine Domains?”

“We’ve been keeping a close eye on the Nine Domains; so far, there haven’t been any major events,” the new Golden-Winged Roc replied with a hint of confusion.

“If the Monster Star is fading, it means either a great calamity has befallen our Monster Race or there’s an issue within our Sixteen Monster Clans.

Go and further your investigation,” the Roc on the mountaintop continued.

“As you command, great grandfather,” the newly arrived Golden-Winged Roc nodded slightly.

Golden light flashed, and the valley returned to calmness.

………

“Do you know about the North Sea?” Xu Zimei looked at Xie Changliu and asked.

“Among the Nine Domains are eighteen seas, and the North Sea occupies three parts of it; of course, I know,” Xie Changliu replied.

“There are eighteen famous seas in the Nine Domains, and our Mortal Domain’s North Sea undoubtedly ranks in the top three.

It extends from the East in the Four Directions Domain to the Lion Territory in the West.

From Heaven Spiral Bay in the South to North Sea City in the North.

Everyone in the entire Mortal Domain knows it, there’s no one who isn’t aware.”

“Are we heading to the North Sea next?” Xie Changliu guessed and asked.

Xu Zimei nodded slightly.

“Then let’s go. I haven’t been to the North Sea in a long time,” Xie Changliu replied.

The North Sea is located at the border between the Tuocang Domain and the Four Directions Domain.

It spans the space between the two domains, and one can reach the North Sea from any direction.

However, this time Xu Zimei is going to find the Dragon Maiden to request her help in merging the Xuan Yuan Sword.

Secondly, he is seeking the ancient art of Ancient Gods Seeking the Dao.

Naturally, he must head to North Sea City.

The only city acknowledged and established by the North Sea.

Because Beiluo City is a major city in the Tuocang Domain, its Teleportation Array connects to half of the Tuocang Domain.

Taking the Teleportation Array directly to North Sea City from here is much more convenient.

Along the way, Xu Zimei and Xie Changliu attracted many gazes, after all, the memories of the recent great battle were still fresh.

The Teleportation Array in Beiluo City was built by a family known as the Wang Family.

Using the Array naturally requires a fee.

Both of them entered the Array, and the world around them began to spin.

Streams of chaotic space flowed around them, and space-time travel was an idle affair.

Because at that moment, you can’t make any movements, or you’ll easily disrupt the spatial teleportation mark.

Beiluo City is very far from North Sea City, even with spatial teleportation; both of them experienced more than two months of travel.

Only then did they arrive within North Sea City.

This time took longer than Xu Zimei had anticipated; when the void shattered and light emerged, they both stood upon the land of North Sea City.

“Change into appropriate clothes before entering the city,” the voice of the city guard echoed in their ears.

The Teleportation Array of North Sea City was located outside the city.

At this moment, not only Xu Zimei and Xie Changliu, but many others had also traveled through the Teleportation Array.

Xu Zimei looked up to see a massive glass city before his eyes.

Calling it a glass city might be an exaggeration, but all buildings of the city, including the city walls, are built with a material resembling glass.

Sunlight shines upon it, causing the light to reflect, blend, and penetrate at all sorts of incredible angles.

This can certainly be called a miraculous city.

You can see neither bricks nor other materials; everything is made of this glass-like crystal stone.

“This is Mysterious Ice. How about it, isn’t it quite shocking at first glance?” Xie Changliu said with a smile.

“There’s a legend that a long time ago, the Dragon Maiden had a dream.

In the dream, she saw an ice city near the Northern frontier, a city built entirely of ice, breathtakingly beautiful.

After waking up, she began to build the city from her dreams and named it North Sea.

But as soon as the city was built, she realized that ordinary ice was not feasible.

Because once the sun is out, the ice would melt.

Hence, she transported over Mysterious Ice Crystals from the depths of the North Sea; this kind of Mysterious Ice would not melt for tens of thousands of years, impervious to swords and spears, impenetrable by water and fire.

That’s how we have the city as it is today.”

“It’s quite nice,” Xu Zimei’s gaze shifted away from the miraculous city and looked straight ahead.

There stood two guards wearing Cold Ice Armor at the entrance of the city.

These Cold Ice Armors were so lifelike that if they didn’t move at all, one might mistake them for ice sculptures.

Between the two guards, there was a small mountain of clothes piled up.

These clothes were in the style of robes, alternating in black and white, simple and dignified.

Both guards wore robes of this black and white design over their armor.

Every person entering the city had to take a set of these clothes from them and had to wear them before they could leave.

“What is this for?” Xu Zimei asked curiously.

“These clothes…” Xie Changliu slightly furrowed his brow, as if he had just remembered something.

He quickly pulled aside a passerby and asked, “Brother, what is the date today?”

“September 9th, Hero Memorial Day. Don’t you know about it?” The passerby said with surprise.

Xie Changliu then remembered and said to Xu Zimei, “Let’s go get a set of clothes first. I will explain it to you in detail later.”

Though Xu Zimei was somewhat puzzled, he nodded anyway.

After receiving and putting on the clothes, the two headed towards North Sea City.

“In the history of our Nine Domains, there was once a great hero.

Legend says that 30 million years ago, darkness descended, the Demon King dominated everything, seeking to destroy the world and enslave all beings.

However, the hero Yan Yingzhou stood up, annihilated the Demon King, led the people to disperse the darkness, and restored peace.

That day happened to be September 9th.

Since then, the Nine Domains commemorate the great hero Yan Yingzhou on this date every year.

Everyone must wear black and white robes, the same as the battle robe once worn by Yan Yingzhou.

And no fighting is allowed.

This day is the most peaceful in the Nine Domains.”

Xie Changliu laughed, “We’ve been time-traveling for more than two months; I completely forgot about this holiday.”

“Yan Yingzhou,” Xu Zimei murmured to himself.

“This holiday has been passed down for 30 million years?” Xu Zimei questioned.

“That’s right, whether it’s the Holy Court or other Overlords, no one is allowed to violate it,” Xie Changliu nodded.

After dressing in black and white robes, the two entered North Sea City.

North Sea City remained as bright and colorful as Beiluo City, no less extravagant.

Being close to the North Sea, many things here are related to the ocean.

People bustled about, and on the streets there were shadow play performers, their stories about the heroic Yan Yingzhou slaying the Demon King to save the world.

There was also the lively sound of gongs and drums, and lion dance celebrations.
