Chapter 469: Chapter 417: Where is the fief located? Secrets of the Divine Dynasty!
Translator: 549690339
This time, when they incorporate the grassland territories, each of their powers will have the opportunity to obtain a significant piece of land as their own fiefdom.
However, despite the vastness of these grasslands spanning millions of miles, only a few places truly catch the eye of these great powers.
“What, Mr. Xue, do you plan to be my neighbor?” Zhao Baiyang smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Xue Wuheng’s face turned cold, he sneered, “As the leader of my cult, I’d like to keep as far away from you as possible so as not to be dragged into your mess.”
Although they are referred to as the Demonic Cult, the cult has remained quite stable for several centuries, rarely causing disturbances in the world of martial arts.
But Zhao Baiyang is very different. Since his fame began, or rather since he made his debut, he has never been overcome by complacency, stirring up countless disputes within the martial arts community.
It is no exaggeration to say that before Pei Xuanjing made his debut, the person most capable of causing trouble in the martial arts world should be Zhao Baiyang and his Mire Sect.
Facing this kind of individual, although Xue Wuheng cooperates with him, he would absolutely not choose to base the Demonic Cult in the grasslands next door to him.
At present, the strength of the Demonic Cult has not yet fully recovered to its peak. What they need most is to recuperate and store up their energy. If they are neighbours with him, and one day there is an issue, they are bound to be implicated.
Zhao Baiyang was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head lightly and said with a smile, “Mr. Xue might be too cautious, after all, you are the famous master of the Demonic Cult!”
“Hehe.” Xue Wuheng did not bite, only sneering at him.
Zhao Baiyang didn’t care and mentioned the location he wanted to select.
In fact, he knows that this is all just a joke. Under no circumstances would their bases be situated close together. Because both parties understand that they are like two hedgehogs. Although they can huddle together for warmth, if they approach too closely, the effect will be opposite.
Apart from these two discussing where to select their domains, the rest of the major powers are also doing the same.
The factions of the Taoist School, the Family Alliance, as well as the second-tier powers in the Jianghu, and distinguished martial artists who have accomplished great deeds all do the same.
Even the Buddhism School, which normally pretends to be uninterested in worldly matters, has now set aside its composure and begun planning its territory.
After all, the benefits this time are too tempting. No power or individual would willingly give up this opportunity, as they do not know if there will be a second chance if they miss this one.
At this moment, everyone is eyeing this vast prairie, eager for a piece of the pie. At the same time, they are also secretly wary, worried that the Great Ming imperial court, tempted by the enormous profits, will renege on their promises.
As for Mr. Wu, once he has handled his affairs, he shows no concern for their allocation of benefits, he’s not interested in these profits. After getting a guide from Wang Bo’an, he embarks alone to enter the pass and head towards Shenxiao Mountain.
As far as he is concerned, nothing at present compares to the upcoming transaction with Pei Xuanjing. If he can leverage the influence of this number one person in the world, his significant cost to return to his ancestral land early will reap some benefits.
As for the Xue Hanyi siblings and Mu Binghua, they didn’t leave. After all, Pei Xuanjing had not invited Mu Binghua to follow him again, so it would seem a bit intentional to follow him now.
The Xue Hanyi siblings finally escaped from Pei Xuanjing’s clutches and naturally wouldn’t walk right into his trap. According to their initial agreement with Pei Xuanjing, as long as they abide by the rules, they won’t be targeted.
Moreover, Pei Xuanjing has already delayed them for four or five years. Now, with their current strength, even if they face two people at the Spirit Realm Third Level, there wouldn’t be much of a gap. The threat they pose has also lessened significantly, so there’s no need to be particularly vigilant.
Shenxiao Mountain has regained its former glory over the past decades, especially after the convening of Shenxiao’s grand assembly. Pei Xuanjing displayed his godly might, single-handedly fighting with more than a dozen Spirit Realm experts, and subjugating the Xue Hanyi twins, which made him famous throughout the world.
At this moment in Great Ming, you may not know the name of the emperor, but if you don’t know about Shenxiao Mountain, then you are not a martial artist of the Divine Continent.
In fact, there is no need for a guide. You can find the direction to Shenxiao Mountain just by asking around.
After half a month, Mr. Wu finally arrived at the base of Shenxiao Mountain.
And when he arrived at the foot of Shenxiao Mountain, Tao Rong had already arrived.
“May I ask if you are Mr. Wu of the Witch Deity Teaching? I am Tao Rong, an elder of Shenxiao Mountain. I was ordered by our leader to receive you.” Said Tao Rong.
He was sent by Pei Xuanjing to welcome Mr. Wu. Regarding this mysterious powerhouse from the top power in Sky Wasteland, Tao Rong wasn’t too humble, his language was neither humble nor arrogant, and his progress was measured.
“Indeed, it is I. Thank you for your trouble.” Mr. Wu replied.
Pei Xuanjing’s previous move revealed that Pei Xuanjing didn’t just cultivate both body and qi, but was a powerhouse who cultivated three paths.
The Witch Deity Teaching just happens to be very proficient in the path of Refining Spirit, so he wasn’t surprised that Pei Xuanjing knew about his arrival.
“Please follow me!”
Under Tao Rong’s leadership, Mr. Wu ascended Shenxiao Mountain and entered a grand hall on the mountain.
“Please rest here for a moment. The leader will be here soon.”
“Many thanks, Elder Tao.”
Tao Rong nodded and then left.
Mr. Wu quietly sat on a chair in the hall, his eyes slightly closed, thinking over things in his mind.
Along the way, he gained more and more information about Pei Xuanjing and formed a clearer understanding of this man’s character.
Ever since he had risen to prominence, Pei Xuanjing had been decisive in his killing, but he distinguished between grievances clearly, valued promises, had never broken his word, and was not a man of many tricks. Of course, he absolutely couldn’t tolerate deception, otherwise it would provoke his thunderous wrath.
From the way he behaved, Mr. Wu was sure that if he really chose to cooperate, then this national teacher would indeed be a good partner to cooperate with.
“A mortal divine dynasty, this is something many kingdoms, ancient countries, and even imperial empires in Sky Wasteland have been trying to achieve for a long time but could never achieve. It’s unthinkable that someone in the ancestral land might be close to achieving it.” Mr. Wu thought to himself.
The plan for a mortal divine dynasty is simple to say but difficult to implement. Many forces in Sky Wasteland have this type of strength, but they dare not actually attempt it because they all have various reservations.
Because the plan for a mortal divine dynasty, reputedly a method close to Becoming Immortal, has attracted the covetous gazes of countless people and forces, it has also caused a catastrophe that swept across countless forces and countless powerhouses throughout the ancestral land.
But the catastrophe that occurred in Tang Dynasty thousands of years ago was too enormous. Countless powerhouses fell during it, and who knows how many ancient forces were extinguished because of it.
