Master Head of the Dragon Soul
Chapter 517 Lord Chu's Castle

Yenching was one of the most ancient cities in Donghua. It was founded more than eight centuries ago and was once the capital city.

The city's history was filled with strife and conflict, but at the same time, it was the birthplace of many famous heroes.

Standing strong against the tides of time, Yenching was the crown jewel of Donghua. Despite its status as a globalized metropolis, Yenching had preserved most of its historical architecture. As soon as one stepped into the city, they would be immersed in the glories of its past. At the same time, the modern skyscrapers and luxury cars gave the city a dreamy and anachronistic feel.

Chu Feng and the others stepped off the plane. Like many other tourists, Zhou Lie and his family were in awe of the city. They snapped photos of their surroundings and bought street food from various vendors.

To many people, Yenching was filled with dreams, opportunities, and endless possibilities...

However, to Chu Feng, the city only brought him pain and suffering.

"It's been a while, Yenching," Chu Feng mumbled to himself as he looked into the distance.

A group of crimson-red buildings located in the center of the city and occupying over three acres of land was one of the landmarks of the city.

The buildings were positioned in the shape of a dragon, and it was the symbol of protection for the city. They were red because they were constructed entirely out of mahogany, a wood traditionally used only for royalty.

Even the royalty of past dynasties would not have been able to afford enough mahogany to build so many buildings. The group of buildings was perhaps the only such location in the world.

"What are you looking at?" Yun Muqing noticed that Chu Feng was looking at something in a daze. She went up to him carrying Duo Duo in her arms.

Chu Feng pointed into the distance. "See the group of red buildings over there, in the city center? Do you know what they are?"

"Of course! That's Lord Chu's Castle! Who in Donghua doesn't know about them?" Yun Muqing said annoyedly. A hint of admiration appeared in her eyes as she looked there.

"That's the abode of Lord Chu, Donghua's protector! Twenty years ago, when the previous dynasty collapsed and external forces threatened Donghua's sovereignty, Lord Chu led an 800,000-strong army on a sixteen-nation conquest. His successive victories brought peace to the nation, and the emperor built the castle for him as a reward. Also, Lord Chu was conferred the 'Emperor's Equal' title! His authority is equal to that of the emperor! His strength is unparalleled, and he is the person who brought Donghua twenty years of peace!"

Yun Muqing's tone was filled with admiration.

When the tourists faced Lord Chu's Castle, they put their phones away and bowed respectfully at it. Some of the tourists were even pilgrims who laid prostrate and bowed to the castle, as though worshiping a deity.

Only Lord Chu commanded the respect of all one billion citizens of Donghua.

Chu Feng nodded. "That was once my home," he said calmly.

Yun Muqing's eyes widened, and she covered her mouth incredulously.

Chu Feng is...
