Chapter 317: Imperial Command to Execute Gu Yuan! (Third update)_1

Thousands of miles away.

A black iron city sits in the heart of Desolate Wilds. This massive city, dark and foreboding as if cast from black iron, radiates a fierce, metallic sheen under the sun. The city, spanning dozens of miles in size, is nestled within the mountain range. At the heart of the city, a towering greenstone mountain stands one hundred zhang high. Stone houses dot the city landscape, densely populated with no less than two hundred thousand people.

The city is currently in a total uproar, with squads of war soldiers continuously navigating their way around, dragging behind them enormous beasts; the air is rife with the scent of blood.

Suddenly, a black dot emerges in the distant sky and in the blink of an eye, it hovers over the green hills of the city. Only then is it apparent that the newcomer is a fully grown Qingyu Hawk, and atop the Hawk there stands a Human War Soldier. Without descending, the Hawk continues to circle in mid-air.
