Xiao Tian did not choose to queue. Instead, he directly found the family controlling the wormhole. After demonstrating his strength, he walked into the spatial wormhole under their respectful gazes.
With strength, who would bother queuing like a bitter person? He was not some Son of Destiny with a masochistic tendency.
Do not like it? Then I will punch my way through. My fists really like your face.
Xiao Tian lay on the spatial ship, his face devoid of any will to live, as if his soul had already departed.
So boring! Loneliness truly is the greatest enemy, Xiao Tian rubbed his temples and said helplessly.
Although most of his time was spent cultivating, he still needed to constantly pay attention to the situation outside.
If he was careless and did not notice a sudden spatial storm or spatial rift, it would be no laughing matter. Who knew where he would be suddenly sent?
After continuously transferring through multiple spatial wormholes, Xiao Tian finally arrived at the closest location to Tianbei City. However, Tianbei City itself did not have a spatial wormhole, so Xiao Tian had to travel there himself.
Xiao Tian summoned the Amethyst Winged Lion King to travel, while he lay on its back, feigning sleep to recover his spirit.

At dusk, the setting sun cast its rays.
On a hillside on the way to the South Gate of Tianbei City, a caravan-like group of carriages and horses was stopped.
From inside a rather luxurious carriage, a somewhat cold voice emerged. Han Chong, give the order to set up camp here tonight!
Yes, Miss! The somewhat burly, slightly simple-minded middle-aged man responded, then began to direct the team. Ghost Head, you take people to prepare the camp. Wolf Fang, you take people to set up sentry posts. Steelback, you take people to fetch clean water for dinner. Iron Horse, you…
Orders were issued one after another from the middle-aged man's mouth. Those whose names were called did not object, all smiling as they accepted their tasks.
For a time, the entire hillside became lively.
In less than half an hour, white tents appeared on the hillside, and many bonfires were lit.
Everyone was doing their own thing, appearing orderly and without any chaos.
Just as all the tents were set up, a young maiden stepped out of the luxurious carriage.
The maiden had eyebrows like willow leaves, skin like snow, a tall figure, and straight, slender legs.
Dressed in purple silk, her curvaceous figure appeared particularly full beneath the fabric. The only flaw, however, was a hint of coldness on her cheeks, and a sternness in her beautiful eyes as they looked around.
A peak Half-Step Dou King aura emanated from her, as if she could break through her realm at any moment.
The maiden stepped down from the carriage, her beautiful eyes slowly sweeping across the camp. Everyone she looked at showed respectful gazes.
From their gazes, it was clear that their respect was from the heart, indicating that this maiden was not as indifferent as she appeared in her daily actions.
Because mere indifference could not earn the respect and loyalty of subordinates.
The maiden came and sat down in front of a bonfire. The others also took their seats in front of other bonfires.
She picked up a small knife and cut slices of meat from the already roasted meat, eating it slowly and deliberately.
The others also began to eat, but they did so in a rather ravenous manner.
Those on night watch tonight are not to drink alcohol. The rest of you should drink a little less, to prevent any sudden situations, the maiden said indifferently as she wiped her mouth and hands after eating a little, then stood up and walked toward her private tent.
Yes, Miss! The many guards immediately stood up and shouted respectfully.
They had a hundred percent faith in their young mistress.
Not only because of her strength and talent, but more so because of her conduct and work style. In other families, guards were never looked at directly.
But their young mistress treated her guards differently. If someone was sacrificed or severely injured during a mission, she would have the family pay a sum of money to their families, ensuring they could survive.
One must know that in other families, a severely injured person was considered worthless, and such people would be directly abandoned, or even killed.
As for severance pay, that was even more impossible.

Master, it seems there are people ahead, like a caravan, the Amethyst Winged Lion King said in a booming voice as he flew high in the sky.
No need to bother with them. We will enter the city first, Xiao Tian instructed him.
Yes! The Amethyst Winged Lion King continued to fly toward Tianbei City.
***
Did you all hear something? It sounds like a magical beast flapping its wings. Han Chong, holding a wine pot, stood up from beside the bonfire and listened carefully.
At this moment, the woman who had entered the tent also came out, her slender hand gripping a long sword, her eyes coldly looking at the distant sky.
In the distant sky, a small purple dot gradually grew larger.
Miss, it seems a flying magical beast is coming, and its aura seems very strong. I do not know if it is friend or foe, Han Chong said in a deep voice as he approached the maiden.
Everyone, be prepared. It might just be passing by, but do not let your guard down, Han Xue commanded with a cold face.
The others all picked up their weapons and surrounded the maiden in the center, protecting her safety.
***
As the purple light dot drew closer, the caravan members finally saw it clearly.
In the sky, the Amethyst Winged Lion King flew rapidly, its body of amethyst shimmering under the moonlight.
Master, those humans seem very nervous, Zi Yao said.
Xiao Tian did not even open his eyes. Ignore them. Keep going.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King flew over the caravan. The caravan members felt a powerful sense of oppression, as if the entire sky was pressing down. This was the aura the Amethyst Winged Lion King unintentionally emitted.
Everyone gripped their weapons tightly, warily watching the Amethyst Winged Lion King in the sky.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King flew over their heads without a glance, its eyes looking at them as if they were a group of ants.
At this moment, everyone finally saw a handsome man, like a banished immortal, lying on the magical beast.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King gradually flew away from above the caravan, heading toward Tianbei City.
It was at this moment that Xiao Tian, as if sensing a somewhat familiar aura, opened his eyes. Oh!
Master, is something wrong? Zi Yao asked upon hearing Xiao Tian's voice.
Xiao Tian did not answer. Instead, he turned his head, his eyes seemingly piercing through layers of space to see the previous caravan.
He found the source of the somewhat familiar feeling.
It was the maiden, protected by layers of guards.
Xiao Tian scrutinized the maiden for a moment. When he saw her hair and face, Xiao Tian immediately understood what this sense of familiarity was about.
He thought to himself, No wonder there was a slight feeling of familiarity.
