Two hours later, everyone finished their discussion.
Yun Yao, Ji Ke, and the others hadn't obtained their household registration cards yet, so they couldn't show up for the time being.
They returned to the Nine Heavens Ten Absolutes Tower and continued to cultivate in seclusion.
Ji Tianxing walked out of the secret room and left the Autumn Orchid Courtyard alone.
He strolled in Green Mountain City, secretly observing the city with his Divine Sense to understand the layout and situation.
At the same time, he was also silently collecting all kinds of information.
There was information about Green Mountain City, the City Lord's Mansion, the City Guards, and the major families in the city.
When night fell, Ji Tianxing returned to the Star Moon Pavilion and entered the Autumn Orchid Courtyard.
Through an afternoon of investigation, he collected a lot of useful information.
In Green Mountain City, the City Lord's Mansion was undoubtedly the overlord.
The current City Lord was a Divine Lord. Because he rarely acted in the past few hundred years, his realm was unknown.
In addition, there were two other Divine Lords in the City Lord's Mansion. Their strength was between the first and second level, and they were the Deputy City Lord and the Superintendent of the City Guards.
Second only to the City Lord's Mansion were the five major families.
Among them was the Qi Family, which was mainly involved in the pet business and had a network of connections in more than 40 cities.
The current family head, Qi Tianlong, broke through to the Divine Lord realm ten years ago.
The Qi Family was developing rapidly and had strong financial resources.
The other four major families were all noble families with thousands of years of history.
In terms of financial resources, they were naturally inferior to the Qi Family, but their backers and forces were more powerful.
In addition, Ji Tianxing also found a very important piece of information.
Three days later, a grand event would be held in Green Mountain City.
The City Lord's Mansion took the lead and the five major families jointly organized a martial arts competition in the city square.
The six major forces would each send two young geniuses, and the winner would be determined in a martial arts competition under the witness of all the people in the city.
The force with the highest ranking would obtain the ten-year use of the Dark Light Cave.
This was a grand event that was held once every ten years, and it attracted the attention and discussion of the entire city.
Millions of commoners were discussing this matter in secret, discussing which genius was stronger and had the highest chance of winning.
When Ji Tianxing heard this news, he was still a little confused.
So, he asked the people and understood the whole story.
The cause of this matter had to be explained 70 years ago.
Eight hundred thousand kilometers to the north of Qingshan City was the Sea of the Setting Sun.
Seventy years ago, several experts from the Qi Family and the Chi Family were hunting for Mythical Beasts in the coastal waters of the Setting Sun Sea Region and accidentally discovered a mysterious island.
Several experts entered the isolated island and chased after the two divine beasts. They unintentionally entered a mysterious cave.
As a result, the strength of the two divine beasts increased dramatically in the cave, killing and injuring several experts.
Only two experts were still alive. They hurriedly retreated from the mysterious cave and sent a request for help to their respective families.
The experts from the Qi Clan and Chi Clan rushed to the isolated island and started investigating the mysterious cave.
They successfully captured two divine beasts and discovered a secret.
Inside that mysterious cave, there were not only colorful profound lights, but also incomparably rich divine stones and metal ores.
However, there were several powerful Divine Beasts in the cave, as well as several Monarch Grade Divine Formations of the Sea Beast Clan.
The Qi Family and the Chi Family did not have any Divine Lord experts. After paying a huge price, they were still unable to occupy the cave.
Thus, they secretly found the City Lord's Mansion and asked for help.
If they successfully occupied the cave, the three forces would divide the Divine Level Stone and Divine Gold mines equally.
However, the two Divine Lords sent by the City Lord's Mansion also suffered great losses one after another.
When the news spread, the other three great families also came out in full force and rushed over to help.
Hence, the six great forces joined forces and each displayed their abilities.
They racked their brains and methods before killing the divine beasts in the cave and cracking the Divine Formations left behind by the Sea Beast Clan.
After the six great forces occupied the mysterious cave, they named it Mystic Light Cave.
However, they were unable to come to an agreement on the issue of resource distribution.
The various forces put forward various conditions, wanting to obtain more resources and treasures.
In the end, the City Lord made the final decision.
Every ten years, the six great forces would conduct a martial arts competition. Whoever won would be able to control the Mystic Light Cave for ten years!
For the sake of fairness, Divine Lord Realm experts were not allowed to participate.
Only young disciples below the Divine Lord Realm and within a thousand years old were qualified to participate in the martial arts competition.
This compromise received the approval of the several great families.
But the following 60 years made the five great families so depressed that they vomited blood.
The City Lord's Mansion won all six martial arts competitions in a row!
There was no choice. The City Lord's son was seriously too strong. He had long reached the half-step Divine Lord Realm.
The young disciples of the five great families were all defeated under his sword.
Hence, the City Lord's Mansion suppressed all heroes!
In these 70 years, it had always been the City Lord's Mansion occupying the Mystic Light Cave, wantonly extracting the divine stones and resources inside.
The five great families burned with anxiety when they saw this, jealous until their eyes turned red.
But they could not violate the agreement and could only fiercely drill their family disciples.
The five great families were all looking forward to the next martial arts competition, their family disciples could defeat the City Lord's son and seize back the Mystic Light Cave.
In another three days' time, it would be the seventh martial arts competition.
Ji Tianxing immediately understood. No wonder Qi Huanzhi was in a bad mood and came out alone to relieve his boredom.
"Huhu … Although Qi Huanzhi has Ninth Level Celestial Deity strength, he's also pulling up seedlings to help them grow, his foundation weak.
With his combat strength, facing off against a half-step Divine Lord Realm expert, he'll definitely be defeated in less than ten moves. "
Ji Tianxing secretly pondered and had an idea very soon.
However, he could not take the initiative for this matter.
He had to get Qi Huanzhi to speak first, then he would seize the opportunity to take action. Only then could the plan go smoothly.
Hence, he meditated and cultivated in the hidden chamber, waiting silently.
Without his orders, the guards and two maids did not dare to disturb him.
Before he knew it, a whole day had passed.
No one stepped into Qiulan Courtyard.
It was time for the evening lights to be lit again.
Ji Tianxing was still cultivating in the hidden chamber, not in a hurry at all.
Time passed silently …
Four hours later, it was late at night.
Suddenly, the guard's voice came from outside the hidden chamber.
"Reporting to Young Master Tianxing, an important guest has come to visit."
Hearing the guard's report, Ji Tianxing opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.
"He's really here."
He did not know anyone in Qingshan City. Other than Qi Huanzhi, who else would come to visit him?
Hence, Ji Tianxing got up and left the hidden chamber, walking toward the living room.
As soon as he stepped into the living room, he saw Qi Huanzhi sitting at the table, looking dejected and depressed.
Qi Huanzhi was holding a wine cup and drinking by himself, while two maids of the Divine Fox Clan were massaging his shoulders and legs.
Ji Tianxing greeted him with a smile and asked knowingly, "Young Master Qi, what brings you here so late at night?"
Qi Huanzhi gestured for him to sit down and poured him a cup of wine, saying, "The night is long, and I'm not in the mood to sleep. Since I have nothing to do, I came to visit Brother Tianxing and have a drink with you …"
Ji Tianxing held the wine cup but did not drink. He smiled and said, "Looking at your worried face, you must have something on your mind.
I'm curious, what in Qingshan City can make Young Master Qi so anxious? "
