Chapter 5518

The wind and sand continued to blow as Kai and Hu Mazi followed Lin Yun’er’s footsteps, heading towards Dongxiang County.

Lin Yun’er led the way, her steps light and firm, as if she knew the wasteland like the back of her hand.

“How far is Dongxiang County from here?” Hu Mazi asked impatiently.

Days of travel had left him somewhat exhausted, and now with a clear goal in mind, he was even more eager to find the location of the Sixth Hall of the Divine Temple.

“Almost there! Just past the sand dunes ahead, we’ll see the walls of Dongxiang County,” Lin Yun’er said, pointing ahead.

Sure enough, before long, a majestic city came into view.

The walls of Dongxiang County towered into the sky, constructed of massive bluestones that gleamed in the sunlight.

Guards stood thronging the walls, their gazes warily scanning the surroundings, as if on guard against something.

“How do we get in?”

Hu Mazi asked.

He knew that most cities had strict entry and exit regulations, let alone one so connected to the Sixth Hall of the Divine Temple.

Lin Yuner thought for a moment and said, “I’m from the Lin family, they should let me in. As for you two, you may need to disguise yourself.”

“Disguise yourself?” Hu Mazi was a little puzzled.

Lin Yuner nodded: “Yes, I’m afraid they will recognize you as outsiders and cause unnecessary trouble.”

Kai didn’t care: “No need to be so troublesome, we can just go in directly.”

After that, he walked straight towards the city gate.

Seeing this, Lin Yuner and Hu Mazi had no choice but to follow.

The soldiers guarding the city saw someone trying to enter the city and immediately stepped forward to stop them.

“Stop! Who are you?” A soldier asked sternly.

His eyes swept over Kai and Hu Mazi sharply, as if he was doubting their identities.
Lin Yuner quickly stepped forward and said, “I’m Lin Yuner from the Lin family. These two are my friends. We’re going into the city.”

The soldier looked Lin Yuner up and down, and after confirming that she was indeed from the Lin family, he said, “So it’s Miss Lin, but these two…”

Before he could finish his words, Kai stepped forward and released a powerful aura.

That aura was like an invisible mountain, pressing down on all the soldiers defending the city and making them breathless.

“Get out of the way!” Kai said coldly.

His voice was filled with unquestionable majesty, which made the soldiers involuntarily step aside.

Kai and Hu Mazi swaggered into the city, and Lin Yuner quickly followed.

After entering the city, Hu Mazi asked, somewhat puzzled, “Kai, why did you release your aura just now? Wouldn’t that just attract attention?”

Kai smiled faintly, “I just wanted them to know we were here, so we could better find the person we were looking for.”

Lin Yuner was also a little worried, “But then the princess would definitely know of our presence, and then we’d be in danger.”

“Dangerous?”

Kai chuckled dismissively. “No one in Dongxiang County has ever made me feel dangerous.”

His words were arrogant, but they radiated unquestionable confidence.

Seeing his confidence, Lin Yuner and Hu Mazi said nothing more and simply followed him silently.

Dongxiang County’s streets were spacious and clean, lined with ancient and elegant buildings. Pedestrians

streamed through the streets, and vendors hawked their wares, creating a prosperous scene.

If it weren’t for the knowledge that the princess was in collusion with the Sixth Temple, no one would have guessed that this seemingly peaceful city concealed such a profound secret.

“Where are we going now?” Hu Mazi asked.

Lin Yuner thought for a moment and said, “Let’s go to the Lin family first. I want to see if my father has returned.”
