BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1843 To Snow Territory 1
She saw the towering walls amidst the snow.
The walls of Snow Territory differed from those of the Saint Divine Land. They weren't made of thick mud, but emitted a chilling aura, making people instinctively want to keep their distance.
Although Snow Territory appeared luxurious…
Gu Chaoyan couldn't help but develop an innate dislike for Snow Territory. If it weren't for the Fire Lotus flower, she would have never approached this place.
It was a city filled with conspiracies and deceit.
As Gu Chaoyan and the hidden guards approached, the sound of horns resounded, and the gates of Snow Territory swung open.
Once the gates opened, guards and civilians from Snow Territory hurriedly streamed out. They were not vastly different from the common folk in the Saint Divine Land, except that their attire was more extravagant.
They warmly greeted Gu Chaoyan and the hidden guards, kneeling on both sides and expressing their heartfelt welcome. "Welcome back to the city, City Lord and Phoenix Girl!"
Their kowtowing continued.
Upon hearing their warm greetings, Gu Chaoyan maintained an impassive expression. She knew that the people of Snow Territory were simply offering well-wishes for their own peace of mind. She had no need for such excessive enthusiasm.
Ouyang Mingjing had a bright smile on his face, relishing the adoration of the Snow Territory civilians.
However, he knew that there were some Elder Men in Snow Territory who held doubts about him. They were instigating the civilians, hoping to sow seeds of suspicion.
He had been living under suspicion for a long time.
Sometimes, Gu Chaoyan wondered if she truly wasn't fit to be the City Lord.
But that wasn't the truth.
Those Elder Men were driven by their own desires, manipulating the situation to create discord.
In reality, the civilians remained devoted to him.
Experiencing this moment, Ouyang Mingjing turned his attention to Gu Chaoyan's carriage and a hint of displeasure appeared in his eyes from the distance.
Snow Territory's people had done so much, yet she wasn't even willing to lift the curtain to take a look?
What kind of attitude was this?
Ouyang Mingjing approached the carriage and spoke softly, "They are all here to greet you. According to protocol, you should step out of the carriage and acknowledge their greetings. They want to see the Phoenix Girl of Snow Territory and their future City Lord's wife."
"…."
"Never forget that we are in this together," Ouyang Mingjing continued. "You can pretend to be the Phoenix Girl, soon to be the wife of the City Lord in Snow Territory, and I will provide you with the Fire Lotus flower you desire."
"…."
"How can you expect to obtain the Fire Lotus flower if you can't even fulfill this simple gesture?" Ouyang Mingjing reminded her in a hushed tone from outside the window.
Gu Chaoyan scoffed inside the carriage.
She had no intention of engaging in further conversation with Ouyang Mingjing.
Lifting the curtain, she stepped out of the carriage and cast her gaze upon the people who were fervently kowtowing. Her face remained expressionless, devoid of any emotions stirring within her.
She stood there silently.
"So, this is our Phoenix Girl?"
"And she's the future wife of the City Lord?"
The civilians of Snow Territory whispered among themselves, discussing Gu Chaoyan's appearance and role.
