Chapter 570: The Great Yan Empire

Chen Zhen and others were surprised as well. They knew that the mysterious figure in front of them was indeed powerful, but to rashly ask him to accept a disciple? Would the other party even agree to it?

Moreover, considering the mysterious origin of this strong practitioner, they did not have to think too hard to know that the other party would not stay in their Dao Sect.

If he really took your daughter with him, were you really comfortable letting your daughter follow him?

What's more, someone who had the Reincarnation Seal didn't really need to take anyone as a Master. Once their Reincarnation Stage memories were restored, they would naturally become a super-strong practitioner.

Considering Ying Huanhuan was the Reincarnation of the Ice Master, one of the strongest figures in the world, second only to the Symbol Ancestor, this mysterious figure in front of them might not even be as strong as her. Wasn't it pointless for her to worship him as her Master?

It might be better to choose the annihilation of the Yuan Gate instead. Not only would it avenge their sect, but it would also provide a safe environment for Ying Huanhuan to grow.

Chen Zhen and the others wanted to persuade Ying Xuanzi to change his mind, but they ultimately couldn't bring themselves to speak.

Ying Xuanzi waved his hand at them and then cupped his fist towards Xiao Ming, saying, "I have made up my mind on this matter. Please grant me this request, Senior."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Ming sighed and replied, "I have never thought of taking a disciple, but since I promised you a request, I will not go back on my word. However, can you tell me your purpose?"

Ying Xuanzi replied, "I want to ask the Senior to seal Huanhuan's memories for some time, at least to let her enjoy one last period of happiness."

Xiao Ming nodded and said, "It can be done. The Reincarnation Seal unlocks itself gradually, and I can seal her memories. But in the end, when it's unsealed, she will remember everything."

Ying Xuanzi nodded, "That is enough."

"Very well, I agree with your request. Go ahead and arrange the discipleship ceremony. I won't stay long in the Dao Sect, just a couple of days, and then I'll take her away."

...

Two days later.

Xiao Ming left the Dao Sect, and the Great Sect Competition proceeded as scheduled.

Before the competition began, the Dao Sect was ridiculed by the Yuan Gate.

"We heard that your Dao Sect was visited by a mysterious figure that took your Sect's treasure, the Great Desolation Tablet, and you had no power to retaliate. Has the strength of the Dao Sect declined so much over the years?"

"Heh heh, our Dao Sect indeed had no power to resist, but if it were your Yuan Gate, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to withstand even a single finger from that person," Chen Zhen, the representative of the Dao Sect this time, replied with a cold laugh.

'There really was such an incident!'

The people from other Super Sects were shaken when they heard Chen Zhen's words. He did not seem to be lying.

The strength of the Dao Sect was well known, and to suppress the entire Sect to the point where they couldn't even catch their breath, that mysterious figure must be at least a Reincarnation Stage practitioner!

Though not the largest in terms of land area, the Great Yan Province boasted the highest concentration of formidable practitioners within the Great Yan Empire. Moreover, some of the most elite factions in the empire were situated here.

Eight major cities were distributed throughout Great Yan Province, with each of these factions controlling one of these cities. Therefore, in many ways, the Great Yan Province could be considered the core of the Great Yan Empire.

...

Great Yan Province, Imperial City.

In the inner sanctum of the Imperial Palace, there was a towering and majestic mountain peak that pierced the clouds. This mountain peak was called the Sacred War Peak.

It was considered a forbidden area because it contained the passageway to the Ancient Battlefield.

At the top of the Sacred War Peak was a huge stone formation. Numerous magical symbols were carved into these huge stones. Waves of terrifying energy were constantly being emitted from these symbols, causing the surrounding Yuan Power to boil over.

Buzz! Buzz!

Normally, this huge formation would only be activated once every twenty years for the Hundred Empire War. However, for some unknown reason, the formation began to tremble today, and its engraved symbols began to emit a brilliant radiance. Then, a light pillar began to form in the center of the formation.

This spectacle naturally attracted the attention of the powerful figures within the palace. A middle-aged man, whose hair was a mixture of black and white, and who was dressed in a dragon robe that exuded an air of nobility, quickly approached the scene.

"Why has the teleportation formation been activated? Could it be that a distinguished envoy from the Upper Sects has arrived to our Great Yan Empire?"

The middle-aged man looked at the glowing formation with a mixture of surprise and anticipation in his eyes.

As the light pillar gradually dissipated, two figures, one tall and one short, slowly appeared.

"I really don't understand why Master brought me to this small Great Yan Empire. It's nowhere compared to my Dao Sect!"

The smaller figure, who looked about ten years old with the appearance of a budding beauty, grumbled as she stepped out of the formation.

'Dao Sect?'

The middle-aged man caught the keyword and felt a surge of excitement in his heart. These were indeed visitors from an Upper Sect!

Behind the young girl, a man looking in his early twenties also stepped out with a smile.

"This place is not as simple as you think," he said calmly.

These two were naturally Xiao Ming and Ying Huanhuan.

After leaving the Dao Sect, Xiao Ming took Ying Huanhuan on a tour of the East Xuan Region to experience the local customs and cultures of the Tian Xuan Continent. Subsequently, they headed to the Great Yan Empire.

Since Xiao Ming was not in a rush and also wanted Ying Huanhuan to properly start her cultivation journey, they didn't travel fast. Instead, they used the teleportation formations to travel between those many regions.
