"Actually, there's no need for you two to hide. This isn't the center of the world, and you two haven't done anything wrong. It's just Tang Luo who's trying to harm you.
"Furthermore, so what if someone here knows you? You were chased out by the Reincarnation Peak. It's not like you're from the same sect. I can explain it to that elder beforehand. With your talent, he definitely won't reject you."
"In my opinion, you two should join the Dusty Royal City with me. With your talent, you might have a bright future," Xing Jue said to Tang Lian with a smile.
"Really? Really? " At this moment, even Tang Lian's eyes were filled with excitement. How could she not want to join the Dusty Royal City with her sister?
"Of course it's true. Leave with me," Xing Jue said with a smile.
"Mm." Tang Lian and Tang Lian agreed at the same time. The two sisters were smiling sweetly like flowers.
Lin Shishi and the others seemed to understand something from the conversation between Xing Jue and Tang Lian, but they didn't ask too much. The matters of the center of the world were too far away for them to care about.
"Actually, this is pretty good. Junior Xing Jue will be able to come back and visit us often. Besides, with Xing Jue in the Dusty Royal City, the Everlasting Institution will develop even faster." At this moment, even Fang Lianyi was overjoyed.
Moreover, after hearing his words, everyone nodded in agreement because they all had deep feelings for Xing Jue. If they could see Xing Jue often, it was naturally their wish. Moreover, as long as they thought of a protector like Xing Jue in the Eastern Region, they would no longer be afraid of anyone bullying them.
"Hehe, Junior Xing Jue, wait for me in the Dusty Royal City. I'll come find you soon," Yao Di smiled sweetly.
"Yes, yes, Big Brother Xing Jue, Han Xiang and sister will also go to find you." Little Han Xiang grabbed Han Xue and promised.
Han Xue, on the other hand, seemed a little shy. Back then, her relationship with Xing Jue was not good. However, Xing Jue saved her. This made her feel extremely touched and guilty. Even now, when she saw Xing Jue, her face was filled with regret.
"Han Xue, Han Xiang, I'll be waiting for you two in the Dusty Royal City." As if sensing Han Xue's guilt, Xing Jue smiled brightly at the two of them. His smile was like that of a close friend.
In reality, Xing Jue did not bear a grudge against Han Xue at all. Moreover, because of Han Xiang and the others, Xing Jue trusted Han Xue. Otherwise, he would not have called her over after he returned and asked them to keep his whereabouts a secret.
"Eh …" Looking at Xing Jue, Han Xue's eyes became a little red. Then, her beautiful eyes narrowed into two beautiful crescent moons. She nodded and said, "Yes!"
"Also, Shi Shi, Zhang Xing, Sister Zhang Meng, Senior Liu Bing, come quickly. I'll be waiting for you in the Dusty Royal City."
Xing Jue bid farewell to everyone, then left with Tang Lian and Tang Yu. As for Tang Lian and Tang Yu's servants, they stayed in the Everlasting Courtyard. The Patriarch had arranged a very good place for them to live out their remaining years in peace.
Outside the Everlasting Courtyard, the old man was still standing in the air, waiting for Xing Jue. Soon, three figures arrived. It was Xing Jue and the others.
"Who are these two?"
After seeing Tang Lian and Tang Yu, the old man's eyes lit up. Putting aside the fact that Tang Yu was already a beginner level Shura Martial Lord at such a young age, even Tang Lian's talent was extraordinary in his eyes. At the very least, it was difficult to find someone like her in the Eastern Region.
"Elder, these two are my friends. When they heard that I was going to the Dusty Royal City, they also wanted to follow me." Xing Jue said honestly.
"Really? Good, good, welcome, welcome!!! Hahaha … "After hearing Xing Jue's words, the old man was overjoyed. In fact, even if Xing Jue didn't say it, he also wanted to bring Tang Lian and Tang Yu into the Dusty Royal City.
"But …" Xing Jue opened his mouth again. He seemed to be in a difficult position.
"Xing Jue, just say it!" Seeing that Xing Jue seemed to have something he couldn't say, the yellow-haired old man said happily.
"Tang Lian was once a disciple of the Reincarnation Peak, but because she offended an elder, she was expelled from the Reincarnation Peak … She …"
At this moment, Tang Lian was the most nervous. She really wanted to join the Dusty Royal City and cultivate with her younger sister and Xing Jue, but she was still a disciple of the Reincarnation Peak. She was afraid of being rejected.
"Haha, and here I was wondering what it was. It's fine, it's fine. It's fine as long as we break away from our relationship. Such a good seedling is exactly what our Dusty Royal City wants." The yellow-haired old man agreed immediately.
"Thank you, elder!"
Seeing this, Xing Jue and the others bowed to the old man at almost the same time. Tang Lian and Tang Yu were already overjoyed.
After that, the yellow-haired old man didn't bring Xing Jue's group to the Dusty Royal City. Instead, he opened a spatial tunnel and brought them around the nearby countries.
As it turned out, his goal this time was to forcefully sign a subsidiary contract with the top factions of these countries. His previous invitation had failed, so he could only use force. If he failed again, he wouldn't hesitate to destroy them.
This was a matter of the dignity of a top faction. In fact, it was already very impressive that the elder could last until now.
Many elders had used forceful methods right from the start, so almost everyone in the eastern region had signed a contract with the Dusty Royal City.
"Sigh, I didn't think that after thousands of years, no one in the vast eastern region would remember our Dusty Royal City. Instead, only the people at the center of the world have heard of it."
At this moment, the yellow-haired old man finally signed a contract with all the factions in the region he was in charge of. However, when he learned that these factions didn't know about the Dusty Royal City's past and treated them as a new faction, the old man's face was filled with desolation.
"Elder, I've always been curious. Why did the Dusty Royal City hide for five thousand years? Now that it has reappeared, why didn't it directly enter the center of the world? Why did it sign a contract with these small factions in the eastern region?" Xing Jue asked with all sorts of questions.
This yellow-haired old man was not only overjoyed to see a genius like Xing Jue, but he also looked at Tang Lian as if he had found a treasure. This meant one thing, and that was that the current Dusty Monarch City might have already declined. They no longer had the foundation they had in the past. There was no one capable in the younger generation, which was why they were so desperate for talents.
"Awakening. Since you want to know, I won't hide it from you. There's a reason for everything."
"Thousands of years ago, when the Dusty Royal City was at its peak, the city lord suddenly decided to retire. He gave up on the entire eastern region and went into seclusion in the most primitive region of the Dusty Royal City. It was also a region unknown to the world, the Desolate Basin."
"Five thousand years is too long. No one knows why the city lord made such a decision. However, the city lord said that within six thousand years, he was not allowed to come into the world."
"The city lord at that time was great. He was known as the greatest genius in the world after the founder of the Returning Peak, Yun Ming, and the founder of the Misty Peak, Song Zhu."
"That is why our descendants followed his wishes. For thousands of years, close to ten thousand years, our Dusty Royal City was isolated from the world. Although we had the greatest resources at the time, there were no outstanding descendants to join us after such a long time. We have long since run out of descendants, and now we are even worse."
"In fact, after the death of the city lord, no one could take the position. The Dusty Royal City has always been without a leader." The yellow-haired old man spoke of the past without hiding anything.
"Why is there no successor? Is it because of the will of the city lord? Or is there a special reason? "Xing Jue asked urgently.
Several thousand years without a city lord appearing, but the yellow-haired old man also said that if it was possible, he would let Xing Jue become the future city lord. That most likely meant that there was a special reason.
"You're correct. It's not that the city lord left a will, but that the later generations didn't have the qualifications to become the city lord. It's because there's a treasure in the Dusty Royal City called the Dusty Throne."
"There are rules in the Dusty Royal City. To become the city lord, one must obtain the approval of the Dusty Throne. Only those who sit on the Dusty Throne can become the city lord. However, for several thousand years, no one was able to sit on the Dusty Throne."
"Without a leader, it was fated to be unbearably chaotic. So, later on, the Dusty Royal City was split into four camps: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. They were led by four manager elders, and they respectively managed the four main regions of the Dusty Royal City."
"Up until now, the Dusty Royal City entered a land of despair where there were no juniors. Also, the six thousand years set by the city lord back then had already passed. The four manager elders of the four camps unanimously decided to return to the world."
"But at a time like this, if there was still no city lord to lead the situation, it was clearly not appropriate."
"Facing a situation like this, after careful discussion, the four manager elders decided to start everything from the beginning."
"Back then, the Dusty Royal City first dominated the eastern region before entering the world. Now, it is still the same. The four camps can recruit disciples within the eastern region, then develop them, but they cannot leave the eastern region."
"So, the current situation appeared. However, it was useless as even with the reputation of the Dusty Royal City, even those unbearable powers had to refuse the invitation."
"If it wasn't for the manager elders' orders, with my temper, I would have destroyed them long ago. Powers like them cannot become anything great even if they are left alive. They are completely trash, and it would be better for the Dusty Royal City to take control of them!" When he mentioned the matter of inviting the powers from the various countries, the yellow-haired old man was endlessly furious.
Looking at the yellow-haired old man like that, Xing Jue, Tang Lian, and the others couldn't help but secretly laugh. They could understand the old man, and if they were in his shoes, they would also be so furious. However, they could tell that the old man was actually not bad.
He only said it with his mouth. After all, he wasn't like the elders from the other three camps who directly used force to threaten them. At least, he painstakingly advised them for a while.
"Elder, it's not that there aren't any geniuses in the eastern region. It's just that there aren't any powerful powers to develop. Right now, the Dusty Royal City has reappeared in the world. As long as you're willing to provide cultivation resources, it will very quickly return to its former flourishing state."
Xing Jue smiled and said. Actually, there were geniuses everywhere in the world. The reason why there were more geniuses in the centre of the world was because the centre of the world had abundant resources.
Just think about it. Some people used second-rank Body Refining Essence to cultivate their entire lives, while some used fourth-rank Body Refining Essence to cultivate their entire lives. The results of those two people's cultivation would be completely different, and there would be a huge gap.
"Mm, what you said is quite reasonable. However, that requires a long period of time. Right now, I'm afraid it's too late." The old man shook his head, and on his aged face, there was a hint of faint helplessness.
