Chapter 1021: 468: Sky Holy Palace? The secret of Fu Lingxi!

Suo Lun, Zhi Yan Princess, Zhuang Zhixuan, and Duke Zhi Ting rode Griffin Beasts for several hours, arriving at the Tianshui City Territory as night fell.

When they reached the Fenglei Fort Defense Line, a Gryphon Knight welcomed them in the sky and immediately blew the horn upon seeing Suo Lun.

Suddenly, in an instant, thousands of lanterns lit up at once on the four-mile-long city wall of the defense line.

The entire Fenglei Fort Defense Line turned into a brilliantly lit majestic line of defense.

At the same time, tens of thousands of soldiers below ignited torches, waving them and bellowing loudly: "Wishing Lord Suo Lun a joyous wedding and prosperity for thousands of generations!"

Twenty thousand soldiers on the ground arranged neatly, shouting in unison, their voices echoing throughout the day.

Suo Lun and Zhi Yan couldn’t help but stopped, hovering in the sky, gazing at this magnificent scene.

The two Griffin Beasts simultaneously soared up from the ground.

On the Griffin on the left, mounted Fen Mo, the youngest senior commander under Suo Lun’s leadership.

On the Griffin on the right, mounted was Marquis Jianyong’s legitimate son, Thousand Riders Commander Jian Ning of the Southwestern Legion.

The two flew to an altitude of more than a hundred meters, lit a rocket, then drew their bows!

"Woosh..."

"Woosh..."

The two rockets were launched.

Fen Mo’s rocket struck the first beacon tower on the northern mountains.

Jian Ning’s rocket hit the first beacon tower on the southern mountains.

"Boom..." Immediately, the two beacon towers burst into flames.

Subsequently, the beacon towers along the north and south mountains of the Fenglei Fort Defense Line lit up one by one like a relay, spreading in both northern and southern directions.

The flames to the north would directly signal Linhai City.

The flames to the right would directly signal Tianlang Pass.

Of course, this was not a false signal to mobilize the lords. So far in the war, beacon fires had never been used.

This beacon fire was merely a war mechanism newly introduced by Suo Lun, linking Linhai City, Fenglei Fort Defense Line, and Tianlang Pass together.

Should there be enemy attacks in these areas, beacon fires would be lit immediately, much faster than sending messages via flying raptors or Gryphon Knights.

This first experiment was fittingly used to celebrate Suo Lun’s wedding.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Beacons were lit every three thousand meters along the north and south mountains, continuously up to several hundred li away.

In just a few minutes, over three hundred beacon fires were lit across the seven hundred li of mountains.

Upon receiving the signal, Linhai City lit all its lanterns.

The entire main city of Linhai was thoroughly illuminated.

The defending army of Linhai City shouted in unison: "Wishing Duke Suo Lun a joyous wedding and prosperity for thousands of generations."

Being relatively far away, the defending army of Tianlang Pass received the signal slightly later, and only after the last beacon tower was lit. They then lit thousands of lanterns, brightening the entire border city thoroughly.

The defending army at Tianlang Pass, along with the reorganizing Southwestern Legion, tens of thousands of people neatly arranged on the ground, waved their torches and shouted loudly: "Wishing your Highness Princess, Duke Suo Lun a joyous wedding and prosperity for thousands of generations!"

Although briefly.

Whether it was Chu Ye, Jian Yong, or Hai Gang, none of them would let go of this rare opportunity to curry favor.

Even though it was just for a short day, they mobilized a hundred thousand troops, presenting an unprecedented grand lineup to celebrate Suo Lun’s marriage.

Not just Tianlang Pass and Linhai City.

Subsequently, Baiyun County, two hundred li to the west, suddenly lit countless lanterns.

Tens of thousands of soldiers on the city walls waved torches, shouting in unison.

"Wishing your Highness Princess, Duke Suo Lun, a joyous wedding and prosperity for thousands of generations."

This was orchestrated by the Dragon Guard Legion, now only numbering over a hundred thousand, assigned to reorganize in Baiyun County City.

This perhaps is the taste of power.

Although Suo Lun is not indulgent, seeing this scene, he was still filled with emotions and greatly enjoyed it.

Even a serene person like Zhi Yan Princess felt a slight tingling sensation watching this scene. Of course, this tingling was meant in a positive sense, feeling slightly overwhelmed.

After staying for a quarter of an hour, Suo Lun and his group continued their flight, heading toward Heavenly Water Main City.

The scene that followed was even more stunning and admirable.

No matter where Suo Lun’s four Griffin Beasts flew, torches below lit up there.

On the ground, it seemed as though a line of fire constantly marked Suo Lun’s position.

Flying at a low altitude of a hundred meters, Suo Lun headed towards Heavenly Water Main City, with the line of fire spreading towards it.

Soon, Suo Lun reached the sky above Heavenly Water Main City.

At that moment, the entire Heavenly Water Main City was pitch dark, without any lights.

Although night had fallen by then, not a single house in the main city was lit, as if it were a city engulfed in complete darkness.

However, just as the flame light connected to the city wall.

Suddenly...

"Bang, bang, bang, bang..."

Hundreds of signal crystals burst into the sky, exploding into splendid lights, like gorgeous fireworks.

And then truly just in an instant!

All the tens of thousands of lanterns throughout Heavenly Water Main City were lit!

Heavenly Water Main City, from a completely dark city, transformed into a crystal-clear, bright as daylight city that never sleeps.

Brightly lit, radiant and colorful!

Not only every building, but even every tree on the streets was adorned with red lanterns,
