Protect Our Clan Leader Chapter 987 - 987 52 Wang Shouzhe You and I are

Chapter 987: Chapter 52: Wang Shouzhe! You and I are irreconcilable! Chapter 987: Chapter 52: Wang Shouzhe! You and I are irreconcilable! …

Heading northwest from Longzuo County Town, the terrain gradually rises.

A broad river originates from the plateau of the great mountain range—the Tianlong Mountain Range—and traverses Longzuo from west to east, surging into the sea from the Jinzhou Peninsula.

In the middle and upper reaches of the river lies the Red Gold Plateau, where the elevation drops significantly to the east. Mixed with abundant red sand, the river waters run red and majestically, giving rise to its na—the Chijin River!

Compared to Peace River’s “winding embrace” and “magnificent stretches,” the Chijin River is wildly torrential, exuding an overwhelming presence and a unique brand of boldness.

The Chijin Guard.

This Guard City, too, once had its glorious era.

In the early days of pioneering in Longzuo County, this place was densely populated, with various clan forces asserting dominance. It was the undisputed heart of the north of Longzuo, a territory coveted by all Prominent Families.

In the end, with the ascension of the Yan Family Old Ancestor to the Purple Abode Realm, their dominance over the region was declared and has continued to this day.

The current Yan Yufei Old Ancestor is the Yan Family’s third-generation Purple Abode Old Ancestor. Over a hundred years ago, the Sky Pride of the Yan Family, Yan Jingchi, would have been their fourth-generation Purple Abode Old Ancestor had he successfully broken through to the Purple Abode Realm.

Alas, things do not always go as one wishes in this world. Yan Jingchi ultimately failed to break through to the Purple Abode Realm, plunging the Yan Family into a crisis of succession.

Nowadays, within a thousand miles of the seven guards in the north of Longzuo County, the situation seems calm, but in reality, countless Prominent Families are silently sharpening their blades, waiting for the fall of the Yan Family to seize their share.

Even within the Yan Family, there is a pervasive anxiety, with hopes pinned on Old Ancestor Yufei and Family Head Feihong to resolve the family crisis and survive the most difficult tis.

On this day.

Outside the eastern city gate of Red Gold City, the core Guard City of the northern seven guards, the main official road had been under traffic control for three days.

All Independent Cultivators, Prominent Families, commoners, and rchant caravans were strictly forbidden from passing through “Red East Avenue”; those wishing to leave the city had to detour through the west and south gates.

In the majority of cities, eastward is deed honorific, as epitomized by the belief of “Eastward Purple Energy, Honorable Guest arriving.” Therefore, high-profile guests are usually received at the eastern city gate. For instance, when Longzuo County faced a flood, Changning Defender Xiahou Hongde welcod Fang Youan at the city’s eastern gate.

And now, outside the eastern city gate of Red Gold City, preparations were laid out to welco a prestigious guest.

Outside the eastern city gate, Welco to Immortal Plaza.

Bathed in sunlight, the plaza paved with local specialty Chijin bricks sparkled with radiance.

In the vast center of the plaza stood a towering “Welco to Immortal Platform,” grandiose and graceful in design, showcasing the Chijin Guard’s hospitality.

Indeed, this platform was built in yesteryears exclusively for Emperor Longchang’s visit. During the ti of the great clout in the northern regions of Longzuo, there were plans for Emperor Longchang to inspect Longzuo and hold court in Red Gold City.

However, after the platform was completed, Emperor Longchang toured Longzuo County City and proceeded directly to Tianjin Guard, then to the Qingluo Sea for inspection. Overwheld with sorrow for the Eldest Princess Qingluo, he left in low spirits, returning directly to Return to Dragon City.

As a result, the substantial resources Red Gold City invested in building the Welco to Immortal Platform turned out to be for naught, never to be used. But what can you do with an emperor’s whims? Obviously, you can’t scold him in a morial to the throne.

This also leads to the conclusion that Emperor Longchang was quite capricious in his pri. It’s only that now, as his life nears its end, his actions have beco even less conservative, exhibiting his unpredictable mood swings and pettiness all the more freely.

Therefore, the Welco to Immortal Platform beca a facility used to receive other prestigious guests. However, with the decline of the Yan Family, the platform had not been used for nearly a hundred years.

But this ti, after nearly a hundred years of silence, the Welco to Immortal Platform was being used once again.

Beginning three days prior, the platform was gradually cleaned and decorated, and now, the whole structure glead anew, with fresh flowers and colored silk ribbons adorning the sides, presenting a grand spectacle.

At this mont, there were already quite a number of people standing on the Welco to Immortal Platform.

In Red Gold Guard, only a few were qualified to stand on the platform.

Among them were Red Gold City’s Lord Duan Yangxia, Tianlong Old Ancestor Liu Wenzhi of the Chijin 7th Rank Liu Clan, Yan Yufei, the Purple Abode Old Ancestor of Yan Family in Longzuo, Yan Family Head Yan Feihong, the current Purple Abode Seed of the Yan Family Yan Yujing, along with so officials from the City Guard Mansion.

Around the Welco Plaza, fully ard patrolling soldiers kept the onlookers at bay. Atop the city walls, the City Defense Army also appeared particularly spirited.

As everyone waited, the ti slowly ticked by.

Suddenly.

“Myau!”

From within the clouds in the sky, ca the clear and piercing cries of spirit birds.

Imdiately after, several flying carriages broke through the clouds, appearing in the sight of all the people of Red Gold Guard. Guided by the people on the ground, the carriages circled and descended onto the Welco to Immortal Platform.

These flying carriages all bore the emblem of the Keep Achieving Comrcial Firm.

Once they landed, a woman with graceful looks and a mature, elegant bearing was the first to step out of the carriage, followed by nurous young n and won staff officers, as well as guards from the other carriages.

The leading woman, dressed in a modified brocade attire of dark purple, exuded grace and nobility, reminiscent of a blooming peony, dignified yet without a trace of vulgarity.

Surrounded by a host of young n and won, she appeared composed, her gaze steady and assertive. One couldn’t help but sense her authority, clearly soone used to holding power and accustod to grand occasions.
