Chapter 417

Northern Plains had been sealed in ice for thousands of miles since ancient times.

The weather here was cold and the ground was frozen. As far as the eye could see, everything was covered in silver.

In such a harsh environment, the people here were tough and valiant. The creatures that could survive here, whether it was the Human Race or the Demon Race, had always been brave and good at fighting.

Today, in the face of a snowstorm, a majestic warship stepped into the Northern Plains and flew toward a city called Frostless City.

The owner of Frostless City was Nalan clan, a famous tyrant of Northern Plains since ancient times.

They dominated Northern Plains and had good relations with the neighboring demons. Even if the major forces of Middle Plains came here, they would not show any courtesy.

After a long journey, the warship finally arrived at the city gate of Frostless City after many days.

Then, Gui Wang appeared first and entered the city to discuss with Nalan clan.

Not long after, Nalan clan's ancestor, the famous sage of Northern Plains, Nalan Su, led a group of clan members to personally welcome Gu Chen.

"Overlord, long time no see. I did not expect you to visit, what a pleasant surprise!"

Nalan Su welcomed Gu Chen with great enthusiasm.

"I hope Senior Nalan can forgive me for disturbing you."

Gu Chen did not dare to be rude and said politely.

"Not at all, not at all. I did not see you after leaving the weapon arsenal. The Old Man was worried that something had happened to you. Fortunately, the heavens have eyes and you are safe and sound. "

Nalan Su led Gu Chen into the city. His etiquette was extremely considerate.

Not only did Gu Chen receive a warm welcome, even the people who came with him were treated like distinguished guests.

This made Gu Chen feel somewhat unaccustomed. The other party's extravagance in welcoming him could easily attract the attention of people with ulterior motives.

"Senior Nalan, do you know my current situation?" Gu Chen reminded.

"You mean the wanted poster of Middle Plains?"

Nalan Su said disapprovingly, "Don't worry, everyone in Frostless City is my Nalan clan's people. This is Northern Plains, a long journey with few people here. Why would we be afraid of the new emperor of Middle Plains?"

Nalan Su chuckled, "Since you're here, I'll have to entertain you well. I can't let you down."

Nalan Su was too enthusiastic. He did what he said. After arranging accommodation for Gu Chen's group, he held a grand welcoming banquet that night.

The grandeur of his etiquette and the enthusiasm with which he treated his guests made others feel overwhelmed by the favor.

Gu Chen did not like this kind of scene, but he had to ask for help, so he could only exchange toasts with the Nalan family.

That night, both sides had a pleasant conversation. Gu Chen had wanted to bring the topic to the Demon Tribe several times, but every time he brought it up, Nalan Su, that old fox, would change the topic at the right time. There had never been a suitable time to discuss important matters.

"Overlord, last time the Old Man said he wanted to introduce his own granddaughter to you. Now that you are here, it is the right time."

After three rounds of wine, Nalan Su was already somewhat drunk. At this time, he clapped his hands.

He clapped his hands, "Xue Ling, come out and meet the Overlord you have admired for a long time."

As soon as he finished speaking, a graceful figure slowly walked in from outside the house.

Nalan Xue Ling, the famous beauty of Northern Plains' Nalan clan. She was only eighteen this year, the same age as Gu Chen, who had just turned eighteen not long ago.

This young girl had her hair combed, with a golden hairpin on her head. She wore a blue robe with ruyi cloud patterns, and her figure was almost perfect.

Her biggest characteristic was her skin, which was especially white. It seemed that the cold of Northern Plains had nurtured her skin to be especially moist, as if water could be squeezed out with a pinch.

Be it her appearance or figure, she was not inferior to the eight girls around Gu Chen. She even had a soul-stirring beauty that was unique to Northern Plains women.

Gu Chen's eyes brightened when he saw her. He did not expect Nalan Su to not lie. His granddaughter might really be the number one beauty of Northern Plains.

"Xue Ling greets Young Master Gu."

Nalan Xue Ling came to Gu Chen and lightly bowed. Her voice was gentle and pleasant to listen to.

She raised her head and secretly glanced at him before lowering her head again. Her ears were blushing.

She looked like a young girl in love who had just seen her lover, making people's hearts flutter.

"Overlord, you don't know. Even in this bitter cold of Northern Plains, everyone knows what you have done."

"True Martial Academy continuously battled various Kings, triggered Stars in Daytime when it was breaking through, killed a genius in the imperial capital Luoyang, and even issued a sky-high bounty not long ago … All of these are not things that an ordinary person could do."

Nalan Su sighed, and his eyes were filled with admiration. "The Old Man's granddaughter keeps mentioning your name in front of the Old Man every day. Ever since the Old Man came back from Baijing Prefecture, she heard that the Old Man met you. She kept asking for details, almost annoying the Old Man to death."

Nalan Su's tone was almost teasing. Nalan Xue Ling's face blushed and she said anxiously. "Grandfather, you …"

"Alright, alright. The Old Man will not meddle in the affairs of the young. The Old Man has drunk a little too much tonight, so he will go back and rest first. You accompany Young Master Gu."

After Nalan Su finished speaking, he left with the help of his juniors, looking like he could not hold his liquor anymore.

Nalan Xueling, on the other hand, blushed and sat next to Gu Chen. She poured wine for him like an obedient and sensible wife.

Gu Chen originally wanted to talk business with Nalan Su, but he never expected that he would do this. Since Nalan Xueling was already by his side, it was not appropriate for him to say anything, so he could only chat with her.

As the two talked, Nalan Xueling gradually moved closer and closer to Gu Chen. She covered her mouth and chuckled when she was happy.

This scene was witnessed by the eight women and the Ghost King who were sitting below.

"The Saint of the Nalan Clan is too unrestrained. He is blatantly trying to seduce her."

The Ghost King had a strange expression. To be honest, Nalan Xueling was indeed a great beauty. He really suspected that Gu Chen, who was full of vigor, would not be able to control himself.

"Hmph, one look and I can tell that she is a little vixen. She is getting closer and closer to Brother Gu!"

Before they came, the eight women were still teasing Gu Chen about Nalan Xueling. But when they really saw Nalan Xueling and realized that she was such a great beauty, and she even took the initiative to approach Gu Chen, a few of them suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"Brother Gu, why did he really accompany her to drink?" Zhao Rou peeked at Gu Chen from time to time and couldn't help but pout.

"Let him be, he should not forget about business."

Lu Yichen looked at her for a while and didn't look anymore. But everyone noticed that she had obviously drunk a lot.

When the banquet ended, it was close to midnight. Nalan Xueling could not hold her liquor and frequently accompanied Gu Chen. When the banquet ended, she could not even walk steadily and was on the verge of falling.

"Young Master Gu, Xueling is not feeling well. Can you send me back?"

Nalan Xueling summoned her courage and said softly.

Hearing this, the eight women widened their eyes.

"This … Isn't there someone else …"

Gu Chen was just about to ask the Nalan Clan to send Nalan Xueling back, but he found that the Nalan Clan suddenly left one by one. He called out to them, but they also said that they had something to do and couldn't send her back.
