Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1368: Immortal Appears in the World, the Emperor Comes

Upon hearing the shouts, the patrolling soldiers immediately turned their horses around and charged directly towards Chu Chen and Li Qinglian.

A short while later, they surrounded the two of them.

The soldier in the lead, wearing an iron mask, leaped off his horse and drew his sword from his waist.

Then, pointing at Chu Chen and Li Qinglian, he said, "Men, seize them and make them slaves!"

At his command, the soldiers dismounted and charged toward the two men, carrying all sorts of weapons.

Chu Chen smiled helplessly at Li Qinglian: "It seems that when we go to places like this in the future, we should prepare some clothes first."

As he spoke, Chu Chen took Li Qinglian's hand and walked directly into the city as if stepping in the air.

All the soldiers were stunned. They seemed to be walking slowly, but in fact they were moving very fast and disappeared from their sight in no time.

The leading soldier was taken aback, then immediately led his men to mount their horses and chase after Chu Chen and Li Qinglian in the direction they had left.

While chasing after them, he shouted to those around him, "Quickly, report to the Emperor, a deity has descended to earth."

In the center of the city, inside a palace built of stone that resembles a castle, a woman dressed in silk is having a meal.

The meal was very simple: a bowl of meat, a bowl of white rice, and some unidentified soup or broth.

Suddenly, a guard-like man entered: "Your Majesty, a deity has descended to earth; he is likely from the upper realm."

Upon hearing this, the woman immediately stood up: "Someone from the upper realm? Where is he/she? Take me there quickly!"

After saying this, the woman hurriedly gathered her clothes in front of her and strode out of the palace with the guards.

However, Chu Chen and Li Qinglian had already shaken off the soldiers behind them and were now strolling around the city.

After walking around, Chu Chen immediately came to the conclusion that this place was not much better than where Gagu and the others were.

The streets were filled with people dressed in coarse linen and hemp clothing. Trade was not developed, with only a few stalls selling grain and cloth.

Moreover, their trading method was very simple: bartering.

There were few pedestrians on the road, but on the outskirts of the fields, countless people, their skin tanned dark by the sun, were working.

However, these people, guarded by soldiers, were undoubtedly slaves.

Chu Chen led Li Qinglian around for a short while, then lost interest and turned his gaze to a house in the distance that looked much taller and sturdier than the other earthen and stone houses.

"That must be their center of power. Let's go take a look!"

"My lord, wherever you say we're going, Qinglian will go."

For Li Qinglian, everything here is new and exciting, so she can see something different no matter where she goes.

Whether it's the culture or the scenery, all of these things offer a unique experience for this housewife who spends most of her time at home.

After hearing this, Chu Chen immediately grabbed Li Qinglian's hand and headed straight for her.

The two continued to move quickly, and in no time they arrived outside the house that looked like a palace.

Just as the two of them appeared, a group of figures hurriedly came out of the house.

The next moment, Chu Chen and Li Qinglian exchanged a glance with the group of people, and immediately, the group knelt down in front of them.

"Human Emperor Ge Ji led her troops to pay homage to the immortals."

Chu Chen and Li Qinglian were quite used to being called immortals.

However, Chu Chen and Li Qinglian were both somewhat surprised that the human emperor was a woman.

So he simply adopted a mysterious demeanor and said to them, "Get up, all of you."

Ge Ji led everyone to stand up and immediately extended an invitation to Chu Chen and Li Qinglian: "Please, both of you, come into the palace to rest."

Chu Chen and Li Qinglian didn't stand on ceremony and followed the woman directly inside.

However, Li Qinglian noticed that when the emperor looked at her husband, there was a hint of joy and longing in his eyes.

She didn't say it aloud, but she was proud that her husband was attractive wherever he went. Moreover, her husband was very capable and always causing trouble, so she wished there was someone else to share the burden.

However, although this emperor has a good face and figure, his skin is somewhat dark, perhaps due to lack of skincare or frequent sun exposure.

But they are still the same species as them, not the black-skinned type mentioned before.

If Chu Chen can accept it, she can try to make this a happy occasion.

After entering the so-called palace, Chu Chen and Li Qinglian took a quick look around.

There was nothing surprising about it; a large table and a few benches were all that was in Geki's office.

Next to the office was a large bed covered with various soft-looking fabrics that neither of them recognized.

Goodness, this is half living room and half bed.

After the two entered and sat down as host and guest, Goji ordered people to bring out various foods and fruits.

Chu Chen lost interest immediately upon seeing the food. Apart from the rice and meat, which were somewhat normal, he couldn't tell what the other foods were.

Those fruits also appeared to be uncultivated varieties, generally small in size, and oddly shaped.

"Are these two deities from the upper realm?"

After gesturing for the two to proceed, Goji immediately asked.

After listening, Chu Chen pointed to the sky: "You mean up there?"

“That’s right, Your Excellency. It is said that the Upper Realm is a paradise on earth. You two are so powerful that you must have come from the Upper Realm.”

Chu Chen nodded without denying it, but instead asked her, "Are you the ruler of this country? How should I address you?"

"I am the human emperor of all races, named Ge Ji, but before these two gods, I am still nothing."

The so-called "Human Emperor of a Hundred Tribes" seems to have not yet formed a nation. This Ge Ji probably conquered a hundred surrounding small tribes, then declared herself Human Emperor, and conscripted people from the conquered tribes to serve as slaves and soldiers, making them work for her.

However, none of that matters. For Chu Chen, since they all mentioned that they came from the Upper Realm, there must be a way and a passage to return to the Upper Realm from here.

In this way, I will be able to communicate with another world.

So he asked, "In that case, do you know how to get to the upper realm?"

After listening, Geji looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression, wondering if these two immortals had come here by accident and then couldn't find their way back.

If we could manage to keep two people for our own use, wouldn't that allow us to unify the surrounding territories?
