Due to Wu Yu's arrival, there was a lot of noise coming from the ice-cold city.

When they talked about it, most people were filled with righteous indignation and loathing for Wu Yu.

But there was no helping it, defeat was a fact, they could only admit that Wu Yu was very strong, while Yin Xuan was a little disappointed.

No matter how dissatisfied the spectators were, they had no choice but to admit the fact that Wu Yu was indeed open and honorable, and that he had defeated Yin Xuan like a hot knife through butter.

Yin Xuan, from the start, he looked majestic and powerful. However, when he fought, he didn't even have the strength to fight back.

Not long after, Wu Yu and Princess You Yu returned to the City Lord's Mansion. They returned even faster than You Xiaodie and the rest.

The City Lord's Mansion was the most spacious area of the Frigid Immortal City. It was surrounded by thick city walls and many Heaven and Earth great formations. If one looked carefully, even the bricks on the city wall were treasures with spirit markings.

This was the first time that Wu Yu had come to the Mayor's mansion. He was shocked by the building and the magical formation. He looked around and saw snow-white crystal palaces all around. White clouds shrouded the crystal palaces, making them look like immortal palaces.

The size of the City Lord's Mansion could not be considered to be that big, but every part of it had a complex array formation. Using the words of the princess, after entering the City Lord's Mansion, one must follow her.

This was a cultivator's mansion and also a fortress. Basically, there was no need to worry about it being breached. No matter who it was, they would be safe inside.

There wouldn't be any thieves that would dare to charge into the City Lord's Mansion of the Frigid Immortal City.

If anyone else wanted to enter the City Lord's Mansion, they would naturally need to have a thorough examination, but if the princess didn't use the jade, she was a VIP guest. When she returned, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion all half knelt on the ground to welcome her, and they had probably just heard about Wu Yu's situation and didn't have the courage to stop Wu Yu from entering the City Lord's Mansion.

"Is my aunt back?" asked the princess as they entered.

The mayor has returned. He also instructed his subordinate to inform the princess that if she came back, she would be heading to the Water Li Palace to wait for you there. the guard said.

Although they were guards, they only had the right to stand guard here because they had the strength of Immortal Soul stage cultivators. In the Yanzhuang Region, there were many experts at the Form Transformation Stage. Violet Palace Realm cultivators could only be considered ordinary experts.

"Did you ask Wu Yu to come as well?" asked the princess.

The soldier nodded. "The mayor said it's best if we go together."

The princess understood. She looked at Wu Yu, who waved his hand and said, "Go."

This was the Frigid Immortal City she was in charge of, and whatever news it was, she knew it faster than anyone else. Furthermore, she had sent 'Moonpear' to monitor Wu Yu and the rest of them, so Wu Yu had a rough idea. That Yue Yue was still following them secretly even before they entered the City Lord's Mansion.

Princess You Yu led the way, passing by many beautiful palaces and long corridors, and even passing by a fragrant Celestial Spirit Garden. There were many precious immortal spirits planted inside, no less than the ones Wu Yu saw on the giant thunder peak.

"Tell me, what is she trying to say?" Wu Yu said on the way.

"Just to keep me at a distance from you, right?" You Ye said.

Wu Yu knew what she was thinking, so as soon as he asked, he already knew the answer. On one hand, the mayor was worried that the princess and Wu Yu were in love with each other. On the other hand, he was worried that Wu Yu thought too highly of Wu Yu.

"She actually thought too much." Princess You Yu was still well aware of her relationship with Wu Yu. At most, she would be able to be friends with him, but now that she found master and slave, she was already considered a good friend. Dao companion, that was simply impossible, she knew in her heart that Wu Yu didn't even have any intentions towards her back then, let alone now.

In fact, her heart was a bit bitter and she couldn't help but look into Wu Yu's eyes. However, what made Wu Yu quite impressed was that in order to survive, she had adjusted herself well and didn't have the slightest intention to die together with him.

If she had any thoughts of revenge, she would have to endure it all the time. However, this was impossible, because the Soul Controlling Blood Formation would tell Wu Yu everything that she had thought about.

In the blink of an eye, they had arrived at the Water Li Palace. There weren't many people outside the palace, and the city lord of Yuan City was supposed to be alone inside, as if this was a study. When they arrived, the door automatically opened, revealing a dim, purple candlelight.

Deep in the room, there was a graceful beauty dressed in a long purple dress. She was lazily lying on the bench, reading a scroll. Under the purple candlelight, her skin outside the dress flickered with a crystalline radiance, intoxicating people.

You Yuan might not be young, but she was especially tempting. Her long eyelashes trembled as she gently put down the scroll. She stood up, her eyes staring at the princess, then at Wu Yu. "You're back."

"Aunty."

While Princess You Yu was speaking, Wu Yu also lowered his head slightly. He could be considered to have been saluted by an elder since he had said that he had seen the mayor.

"Yes." She walked barefoot on the smooth ground, and before long, she appeared before them. She first looked at Wu Yu and said, "I heard that you've obtained a spiritual tool, so I want to take a look."

This woman was truly domineering, but Wu Yu couldn't do anything to her, and she wasn't someone who didn't have a spiritual tool of her own, so there was no point in hiding it. He simply took out the Myriad Dragon Rod and placed it in You Yuan's hand, saying, "Mayor, it's a bit heavy."

You Yuan accepted it, but it didn't matter to her at all. She played with it for a while, stroking the dragon patterns on its surface as she muttered to herself, "This is a very good top grade spirit artifact. I just don't know if its owner is worthy of it."

As she spoke, her gaze seemed to pierce into Wu Yu's eyes.

Wu Yu had the Fiery Eyes of Truth, and his eyes were strong enough. At this time, he didn't retreat at all and said, "City Lord, it might not be suitable right now, but before long, the Myriad Dragon Rod will know that it has made the right choice."

"You're pretty confident." You Yuan gave a faint smile, her smile was a bit cold and mocking, but it didn't make anyone too uncomfortable. She put the Myriad Dragon Rod back into Wu Yu's hands and said, "In the future, you have to serve You Yu well, and if I find out that you have ulterior motives, you will definitely die in my Darknorth Empire. You will naturally know that once you enter the Darknorth Empire, it will be hard to leave.

Her voice was even colder as she threatened Wu Yu with her primordial spirit to suppress him. It was indeed a great suppression on Wu Yu, and he couldn't catch his breath, but he managed to hold it back. The other side was standing from the perspective of the princess, so it was understandable. He didn't think much of it, and after saying goodbye, he walked out first, leaving the princess behind.

After the door closed, You Yuan thought that with the magical formation blocking them out, Wu Yu wouldn't be able to hear anything. In fact, Wu Yu could easily tell what they were talking about from her mind.

In the Water Palace, Youyuan lay back on her bench and asked, "You're in trouble. Do you want to return to Mingdu as soon as possible?"

Princess You Yu stood to one side and held onto You Yuan's arm as she spoke. "Aunty knows me. I plan to leave tomorrow. Next time, if no one bothers me, I'll come see Aunty again."

You Yuan shook her head. "Since you're leaving, I'll explain myself. You have to listen."

"Auntie, please speak."

You Yuan responded bluntly, "I know that on the Immemorial Immortal Road, the two of you may have a mutual interest in each other, but you also know that you're the future of our Beiming Clan. No matter if it's your father or the rest of the royal family, they won't be able to marry you, so it's impossible for you to be in love with Wu Yu, much less become a Dao-companion."

Moreover, after training in the Road of Immemorial Immortal, my son's heart has changed a bit. He no longer believes in companions, at least for a few decades, I want to concentrate on cultivating the Dao, not paying attention to love and such things. My aunt also said that if a partner is good, then they can improve themselves, but if a partner is bad, then they will also be implicated. If they want to find a suitable partner, then it would be too difficult for them to take the risk.

You Yuan couldn't believe it. "Are you sure you're telling the truth?" she asked.

The princess nodded and said, "I dare to swear to the heavens that I'm only seeing Wu Yu as a friend. Of course I'm close friends, and he's willing to help me. "As for Yin Xuan, he's too noisy today, too ungracious. On the contrary, he lets me see him clearly, and if I were to marry him in the future, he would definitely become a burden to me, so I might as well just cut off his thoughts."

You Yuan thought about it for a moment, then gave You Yuan a few more glances and nodded: "I'm very satisfied with your thinking this way, but Yin Hu is the direct grandson of the Duke of Yan, and his future prospects are not too bad. Even if you don't like him, don't be too desperate, understand?"

"I understand."

You Yuan continued, "Like I said, those who are not of my race will have a different heart. Wu Yu was of the Yellow-Flame Race, and was someone who would come from the Yellow-Flame Country sooner or later. No matter how close your relationship is, Aunt has always advised you to be on your guard against him. It's best if you enjoy his cultivation secrets and strengthen yourself, I know that you will have a hard time doing that, after all, young children are all loyal to you, but Aunt said that it must be your best choice. One day, you will understand. As for this Wu Yu, if I follow you back to Ming Du, I'm sure he won't be able to live for long. "

Quiet And Steadfast asked, "Why?"

"This guy loves to show off, he doesn't know how to hide himself. As a foreign race, he doesn't know how to keep a low profile. One day, our entire Beiming Clan will want to get rid of him."

"Oh, I see." The princess lowered her head and said.
