"Then let me state my third requirement: you are not allowed to go looking for Queen Yaotao!"

"This…" Lie Yan was stunned.

This was the most important thing for him to do in Goldendell.

If he didn't agree, then what was the point of going to Goldendell?

But if he didn't agree, he might not even be able to leave this door, let alone go to Goldendell.

So, it seemed that whether he agreed or not, he wouldn't be able to see Yaotao.

What to do?

In the short time Lie Yan was stunned, he had already come up with an idea:

Pay lip service.

He could agree to Marquis Baiyu first, and then act according to the circumstances after arriving in Goldendell.

Having made up his mind, he replied:

"Okay! I promise you!"

"You promise? You're not trying to trick me, are you?" Marquis Baiyu was a little skeptical.

"How is that possible? Don't worry, I always do what I say!" Marquis Baiyu replied, feigning certainty.

"Is that a promise?" Marquis Baiyu confirmed again.

"A promise!" Lie Yan patted his chest and promised.

"Good! Since you agree, then pack your things, and we'll leave tomorrow," Marquis Baiyu said.

"Okay!"

Marquis Baiyu also knew that Lie Yan might be deliberately敷衍(fū yǎn: go through the motions) him in order to go to Goldendell.

But he had no other choice.

After all, Yandi was not his own tribe. Although he had the power granted by Marquis Liehuo, it was not good to interfere too deeply.

Therefore, before he came to find Lie Yan, he had actually discussed it with the elders.

The elders' unanimous opinion was: let Lie Yan represent Yandi to participate.

Although it was not yet certain that Marquis Liehuo would have an accident, he was already old after all. In the future, the affairs of the tribe would still have to be borne by the younger generation.

As Marquis Liehuo's only son, Lie Yan would inevitably have to bear this important task. Therefore, he must grow up little by little.

And the best way to grow up is to experience things.

Therefore, although the elders knew that letting Lie Yan go to Goldendell was risky, he had to go even if there was a risk. This was his destiny, and he had to face it.

In the end, Marquis Baiyu listened to the opinions of the elders and planned to take Lie Yan with him.

Late July, Year 1287 of the Nata Era of Blue Star.

Marquis Baiyu and Lie Yan each led a hundred warriors and headed towards Goldendell.

Marquis Baiyu represented his own Ladi tribe, while Lie Yan represented the Yandi tribe.

It would take about 4 months to travel from the current location of the Yandi tribe to Goldendell. So if they set off now, they would not arrive until the end of the year.

The journey was relatively smooth.

Many tribes were on the road, so the road was relatively safe.

Late December, Year 1287 of the Nata Era of Blue Star.

They arrived at Goldendell.

At this time, Goldendell was already overcrowded, and many tribes had already arrived.

In order to prevent riots and uncontrollable risks, everyone was arranged to camp outside the city.

Except for the leaders who could bring 10 followers, others were not allowed to enter.

As the queen's maternal clan, the Yandi tribe received special treatment. He had the right to lead up to 20 followers and could spend the night in the city.

Marquis Baiyu was worried that Lie Yan would do something out of line if he was alone in the city. He had no choice but to follow in the team of followers and enter the royal city with him.

"Young Master Lie Yan, this is the residence that the King specifically instructed to arrange for you. Please see if it meets your approval," said a servant in charge of receiving Lie Yan.

"I am very satisfied. Thank you for the King," Lie Yan nodded absentmindedly.

"Okay, I will arrange for two servants to stay here. If you have any other needs, you can instruct them to do so."

"Okay."

"Then Young Master Lie Yan, please rest well. I will leave first," the servant bowed.

"Okay, goodbye," Young Master Lie Yan nodded.

"Oh, right, Young Master Lie Yan. As the Queen's maternal clan, the King has specially arranged a special viewing seat for you. On the day of the ceremony, someone will come to pick you up, please be sure to wait at your residence," the servant added.

"Okay," Lie Yan nodded.

After the servant left, Lie Yan left his residence and strolled around the royal city.

Marquis Baiyu followed him closely with three people, never leaving his side.

In addition, the two servants arranged by the King also followed behind.

"You don't have to follow me, I can do it alone," Lie Yan said, turning his head.

"Young Master Lie Yan, it is too dangerous for you to act alone, I must follow you," Marquis Baiyu replied pointedly.

His implication was that Lie Yan was an uncontrollable factor, and letting him act alone might cause trouble.

"I'm talking about those two!" Lie Yan could hear what he meant and gave him a roll of his eyes.

"Young Master Lie Yan, the King has instructed us to follow you every step of the way. Wherever you go, we will go," one of the servants replied.

"Am I a prisoner? Do I need you to follow me?" Lie Yan asked unhappily.
