Unlike Long Yang and Feng Jue, Xiao Chen wasn't born and raised in the Central World. He didn't have any roots in the Central World, let alone any backing.
Moreover, although the Sacred Palace was undoubtedly one of the strongest forces in the North Star World, a quasi-saint sect like the Sacred Palace didn't have any right to speak in the Central World. It was the Supreme Saint sects that truly dominated the Central World.
Therefore, Xiao Chen could be said to be an ordinary person with no background in the Central World.
However, Long Yang didn't seem to mind Xiao Chen's words at all. He smiled and said, "Brother Xiao Chen, don't belittle yourself. With your talent, you'll soon be able to gain a foothold in the Central World. Haha."
Long Yang didn't really need Xiao Chen to do anything. After all, he knew that Xiao Chen hadn't really adapted to the Central World yet. Moreover, this was Xiao Chen's first time in the Human Territory.
The four of them rose into the air and flew across the Heavenly Chen River along the ferry route.
Soon, the four of them arrived on the other side of the Heavenly Chen River, where the Human Territory was. There was also a stronghold here, but it belonged to the Human Race.
However, the four of them were surrounded by several Human Race experts as soon as they landed. The leading Saint expert looked at the four of them and said after sizing them up.
"A Human Race, a Heavenly Race, and two Beast Race experts? What do you want to do in the Human Territory? "
Xiao Chen and the other three didn't try to hide their identities, so the Saint expert could see through them. Long Yang took the initiative to answer the question.
"Can't we come to the Human Territory for a stroll?"
Long Yang slowly extended his right hand as he spoke, and an ethereal token floated above his palm.
The token didn't have a physical body, but one could see a heavenly lightning pattern on it and the number three on the back.
The Saint was stunned when he saw the token. Then, he asked in a deep voice, "You are Long Yang?"
He had recognized Long Yang's identity with just a token. The token that Long Yang had displayed earlier was actually a token unique to the Chosen on the Saint Rankings.
The 108 Holy Sons and Holy Daughters on the Holy Rankings all had such a token. Once one stepped onto the Holy Rankings, the Heavenly Way would bestow a token. As long as one's will moved, the token would appear out of thin air. Furthermore, the Holy Rankings' token could not be duplicated, nor could it be manufactured, because the token did not have a physical body.
There was no need to doubt the authenticity of the token of a Chosen on the Saint Rankings because it couldn't be fake. Long Yang nodded faintly in response to the Saint's question. "Yes."
Long Yang took out his token, and Feng Jue did the same. Feng Jue took out her token, which was exactly the same as Long Yang's. However, Feng Jue's token had the number six, which meant that she was ranked sixth on the Saint Ranking.
Two Chosen on the Holy Rankings, and both of them were ranked in the top ten. After seeing Long Yang and Feng Jue's tokens, the Saint didn't say anything else. Clearly, he planned to let them pass.
Due to the existence of the Heavenly Way and the uniqueness of the Holy Rankings, there was an unwritten rule among the hundred clans of the Central World that the entry of Chosen on the Holy Rankings could not be stopped. Naturally, the Human Race also abided by this rule.
When he saw the Saint immediately choose to let them pass, he shifted his attention to Xiao Chen and Tian Yue. At this moment, Xiao Chen coveted the Chosen on the Holy Rankings even more. It really wasn't bad to have such an identity. Not only could he obtain the protection of the Heavenly Way, but he could also come and go as he pleased in the Central World. Moreover, he didn't have to worry about his identity being exposed at all.
However, it was still slightly difficult for Xiao Chen to ascend the Hallowed Rankings with his current strength. According to Long Yang, even the person at the bottom of the 108 people on the Hallowed Rankings possessed a cultivation at the perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm, and their combat strength was extraordinary as well.
If Xiao Chen wanted to ascend the Holy Rankings, his cultivation would have to break through to the perfection of the Dao Emperor Stage at the very least. After all, it was basically impossible to surmount a realm of cultivation to defeat an enemy.
The matter of the Holy Rankings wasn't urgent for now. At this moment, Xiao Chen's expression didn't change much when he faced the Saint's gaze.
"The two of us are disciples of the Sacred Palace. We were besieged by the Ghost Emperor Sect, so …"
Xiao Chen gave a simple explanation of what happened. However, the Saint was stunned when he heard his name, and then he interrupted Xiao Chen with an excited expression.
"You're Xiao Chen? The number one Holy Son of the Sacred Palace? "
"Senior, you know me?" Xiao Chen was puzzled when he heard this and saw the excited expression on the Saint's face.
He definitely didn't know this Saint. Of course, Xiao Chen hadn't expected the Saint to be so excited when he heard his name. It was as if the Saint had been searching for him for a long time.
Actually, Xiao Chen's guess wasn't wrong. This Saint was a deacon of the Heavenly Yang Sect, and the Heavenly Yang Sect had indeed been searching for Xiao Chen for a long time. Even their outpost had received an order from the Heavenly Yang Sect to search for Xiao Chen's whereabouts with all their strength.
Moreover, the most puzzling thing was that this order had actually been issued by Yin-yangzi himself. How could someone who could make The Great Sage Yin-yangzi give the order to search for be simple? So, this Saint had instantly become excited when he heard Xiao Chen's name.
He'd been searching for Xiao Chen's whereabouts all this time, but unfortunately, he'd been unable to find anything. Yet now, Xiao Chen had actually taken the initiative to appear before him, so how could he not be excited?
Seeing that Xiao Chen had acknowledged his identity, the Saint's attitude immediately underwent a 180-degree change, and he became very polite.
"Hehe, little friend Xiao Chen, you may not know this, but the Sacred Palace has already become a subsidiary sect of the Heavenly Yang Sect, so we've also received orders to search for your whereabouts."
The Saint didn't know why Yin-yangzi was trying so hard to search for Xiao Chen's whereabouts. After all, his status was still too low. However, the quasi-Saint supreme sovereign in charge of the outpost definitely knew something. Therefore, the Saint invited Xiao Chen and the others into the outpost and then ordered someone to report this to the quasi-Saint supreme sovereign.
This stronghold was a small city. The city walls weren't high and there weren't many houses. There was a courtyard in the center and this was the residence of the quasi-sage Great Sovereign who was in charge of this stronghold.
After being invited into the courtyard's front hall, Xiao Chen and the others took their seats. However, Xiao Chen still felt a little strange. What was the Heavenly Yang Sect doing? Especially that Saint. Was there a need to be so polite to him?
Xiao Chen naturally couldn't imagine that he was now a famous person in the Heavenly Yang Sect. After all, there weren't many people who could make Yin-yangzi pay so much attention to him. Unfortunately, he'd only heard of his name and never seen him in person.
