First Summoner

District 13 is a bit far from District 9.

They were teleported several times in succession until they arrived at the outskirts of District 9 in the early morning of the third day.

Shen Ce got off the horse, then quickly walked to the side of the carriage, raised his hand to his chest, bowed his head slightly, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, we are going to enter the ninth district next."

At this time, the curtain was pulled open.

Shen Ce looked over expectantly, but what he saw was Feng Xingyao's handsome face filled with smiles. Shen Ce's face instantly turned dark.

Feng Xingyao raised his eyebrows slightly, "District Master Shen, why is your face so dark? Be careful to prevent heatstroke."

Shen Ce's face became even colder, and he sneered: "Shen has always been rough, not as delicate as Your Majesty."

Feng Xingyao smiled softly.

"I am not a squeamish person, but I am naturally beautiful. Unlike you, who are so ugly."

Shen Ce's face turned gloomy in an instant. He glared at Feng Xingyao fiercely, and a trace of anger rose in his heart.

Is he trying to compete with me in beauty?

Just when Shen Ce was about to say something, Feng Xingyao said calmly: "Please make way, I want to go down."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ce gritted his teeth in his heart but did not dare to show it on his face.

He reluctantly stepped back a little to make room for Feng Xingyao.

After Feng Xingyao got off the carriage, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he turned around and looked at the carriage, as if he was waiting for something.

At this time, the girl in the carriage slowly stuck her head out, and her cold and noble face came into everyone's sight.

She stepped out of the carriage.

Just as the girl was about to get off the car, two hands suddenly appeared in front of her, one from Feng Xingyao and the other from Shen Ce.

Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, frowned and glanced at Feng Xingyao and Shen Ce.

Seeing this, Shen Ce hurried forward, looking at Shen Yan expectantly, and invited softly, "Your Highness."

Feng Xingyao stood still, but his affectionate eyes looked at her with a hint of grievance.

Shen Yan: "..."

She said helplessly: "I can get off the carriage by myself."

Shen Ce's expression remained unchanged. He stepped aside tactfully and let Shen Yan get off the carriage.

But Feng Xingyao did not take his hand back. After Shen Yan got off the carriage, she raised her hand and placed it on his palm.

Feng Xingyao curled his lips, gently held her hand, and rubbed it a few times with his fingertips.

This scene made Shen Ce's face even uglier.

Shen Ce bowed his head and said, "Your Highness, this is the outskirts of District 9. Without the guidance of District 9 token, we cannot reach District 9 safely."

Shen Yan looked at Shen Ce and asked doubtfully: "Ninth District Token?"

Shen Ce explained: "The District 9 Token is like a special pass that allows us to pass through the checkpoints of District 9 unimpeded. Without this token, generally speaking, others can only choose to risk crossing those dangerous paths to enter District 9."

Shen Yan asked: "Do you have the District 9 token?"

Shen Ce nodded and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness. I have the District Nine Token in my hand and will do my best to ensure your safety."

Hearing this, Shen Yan nodded slightly, and then she looked at the surrounding environment. The wind and sand had obviously weakened, and the surrounding vegetation had become lush.

The ground is covered with colorful wisteria flowers, like a purple ocean.

Not far ahead, a magnificent giant arch came into view. On the arch hung a plaque with three large characters written in a flamboyant style: District 9.

The arch looks very old and shows signs of erosion by wind and sand.

The group walked through the sea of ​​wisteria and came to the arch.

Feng Xingyao stopped, turned his head to look at Shen Yan, and introduced softly: "There is a formation at this archway, called the Life and Death Formation. Anyone who accidentally enters the formation will either be extremely lucky and arrive at the ninth district city alive, or be extremely unlucky and die directly."

Shen Ce smiled slightly and interrupted, "If you have the District 9 token, you can reach District 9 without any obstacles."

After that, the two men looked at each other.

The smell of gunpowder was extremely strong.

Soon, their attention was attracted by Shen Yan's words.

"Is this the only entrance to District 9?"

Feng Xingyao replied: "More than that, this is indeed the only one on the surface."

Shen Ce looked at Shen Yan, his eyes were gentle and he said, "Your Highness, I have already contacted them in advance. When we arrive, someone will pick us up."

Shen Yan uttered a light "hmm", but no one knew who she was responding to.

Soon, Shen Ce took out an ancient nine-district token from his arms, and then placed it on the concave part of the archway and pressed it gently. In an instant, the entire formation began to change. The originally calm space suddenly set off a strong energy fluctuation. Then, a dazzling light flashed, and a huge vortex appeared before his eyes.

However, this vortex of the formation made Feng Xingyao and Qiu Lao look slightly surprised.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yan asked.

Feng Xingyao smiled and shook his head, and his hand couldn't help but hold Shen Yan's hand tightly.

Shen Ce walked over quickly and raised his hand respectfully towards Shen Yan, "Your Highness, please."

Shen Yan nodded, and walked towards the whirlpool side by side with Feng Xingyao.

Shen Ce and Qiu Lao followed closely behind.

Old Qiu said to Shen Ce with an ambiguous expression: "You are really loyal."

Shen Ce frowned as he listened, because he felt that Mr. Qiu's words were full of sarcasm.

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing." Mr. Qiu laughed twice.

Shen Ce felt a sense of disharmony in his heart.

At this moment, Shen Yan, who was in front of them, heard something unusual.

She couldn't help but turn her head to look at the person beside her.

He smiled and gave her a reassuring smile.

Shen Yan understood immediately.

She stared ahead, her eyes turning cold.

Before stepping into the vortex entrance, she looked back at Shen Ce and said with a smile: "You did a good job."

Shen Ce was stunned, somewhat confused.

But after seeing her and Feng Xingyao enter the vortex, his face suddenly changed and he couldn't help but shout, "Your Highness!"

The entrance of the vortex suddenly became turbulent, as if it was going to tear the person to pieces!

He strode forward and only had time to catch a piece of cloth torn apart by the turbulence of space. This was exactly the fabric of Shen Yan's clothes.

Shen Ce's face was filled with shock and doubt. He lowered his eyes to look at the torn pieces of cloth, and then thought of what the prince had said to him before entering the whirlpool. His heart seemed to be cut sharply.

Shen Ce thought of something and turned to look at Old Qiu: "There is a problem with the entrance to this formation. Did you know about it a long time ago?"

Old Qiu showed an innocent look, "Oh? Don't you know? I thought you were deliberately trying to frame Miss Shen's life."

Shen Ce's face became even uglier.

How could he possibly frame His Highness...

But it was he who opened this entrance...

and many more!

Shen Ce looked down at the District Nine Token in his hand, and suddenly thought of something. His face suddenly became so gloomy that ink was dripping out.

It was them, those old officials...

Cheated him!

Are they going to betray His Highness? !
