As one of the seven capital cities of the Tian Yuan Continent, the Holy Emperor's Empire was bustling with activity. Most of the people on the streets were wealthy merchants and disciples of extraordinary clans. Occasionally, there would be a few crudely dressed mercenaries among the crowd.
Not only was the City of God the territory of one of the three great clans that controlled the empire, the Zaar family, it was also a paradise for Radiant Saint Masters. Not only were most of the Radiant Saint Masters gathered here, but all the Class 7 Radiant Saint Masters on the continent were gathered here as well. Currently, there were over twenty known Class 7 Radiant Saint Masters on the continent, and all of them were elders of the Radiant Saint Master Union.
In the center of the City of God, there was a majestic castle that looked like a sleeping beast. It was full of vicissitudes of life. Although the castle was snow-white, its color was a bit old and not bright. It still had the aura of time.
The castle was the headquarters of the Radiant Saint Master Union. At this moment, on the seventh floor of the headquarters, the president, Adami, sat on a throne in a lavishly decorated hall. His face was no longer as bright as it had been several years ago. Instead, it was rather haggard. Even the wrinkles on his face had increased, making him seem even older.
"Esteemed president, Ye Lan requests an audience." At this moment, a rather respectful voice rang out from outside the door.
"Sir Ye Lan, please come in," the president gently said. With a gentle wave of his right hand, a ball of milky-white light flashed in his hand. The tightly shut door was silently opened.
A man in a tight suit walked in from the outside. He looked to be in his early thirties, with a pair of deep black eyes that were bright and full of expression, like two black gems. His handsome face was covered with the vicissitudes of life from the wind, frost, snow, and rain.
"Esteemed president, Ye Lan led a group of people to search for master Yun Tian under your orders, but we still haven't received any news about him," the young man clasped his hands at the president.
Adami frowned as he sat on the throne. He murmured, "Yun Tian has already disappeared for several years. I really don't know where he has gone. I've used a secret technique many times, but I still haven't been able to contact him. Has something happened to Yun Tian …" The president became gloomy when he thought of this possibility. Yun Tian was his first disciple. He had basically watched Yun Tian grow up. Although they were master and disciple on the surface, Adami had already begun to treat Yun Tian as his own son. As a result, Adami felt rather sorrowful when he thought about how Yun Tian might have met with misfortune.
"Ye Lan, it's been hard on you these past few days. You should go and rest first. As for Yun Tian, there's no need to look for him." Adami waved his hand gently, his expression somewhat dispirited.
"Esteemed president, you must take care of yourself. Ye Lan will be taking his leave." Ye Lan's voice was filled with concern before he left silently.
"Sigh." Adami slumped against the wide and comfortable back of the throne tiredly after Ye Lan's departure.
At this moment, Adami could not help but think about some matters of the past. He had taken in a total of three disciples in his life. His first disciple had passed away long ago, while his second disciple was Yun Tian, who he had watched grow up. The third disciple he had taken in was the proudest thing in his life.
Both of his first two disciples were exceptional. They possessed extremely great potential as Radiant Saint Masters, but the difference between them and his third disciple was like the difference between heaven and earth. This was because not only had his third disciple become a Class 7 Radiant Saint Master, but he was also a supreme expert who had shaken up the continent. He possessed an advantage that far surpassed Radiant Saint Masters on the path of cultivation. He was now a renowned Holy Emperor, where even the ten protector clans feared him.
Unfortunately, the unexpected happened. The third disciple that Adami was extremely proud of had taken away the saint artifact of the Radiant Saint Master Union. He had almost caused the union to face the threat of collapse. Not only had the loss of the saint artifact caused irreparable damage to the union, but it had also severed Adami's sliver of hope of becoming a Class 8 Radiant Saint Master.
Adami had already entered the twilight years. He originally had a lifespan of three thousand years. Coupled with the additional two hundred years from the ten-thousand-year-old heavenly resource, he had a total of three thousand two hundred years. He had already used over three thousand one hundred years of his lifespan, so he only had a few dozen years left.
Adami had never married, nor did he have any children. He did not have any extravagant wishes in his old age. He only hoped that he would be able to personally witness the Radiant Saint Master Union become even more powerful and glorious in the final moments of his life if he had not reached Class 8. At the same time, he would have a close descendant. Send him off.
But now, his final wish had become nothing more than a dream. Let alone becoming even more powerful and glorious, it would already be extremely fortunate for the union to not decline. It was even more impossible for him to be sent off by a descendant he was close to. His second disciple, Yun Tian, had already gone missing for many years. His third disciple's status was no longer the same as before. Even he, the president of the union, could not befriend him, let alone send him off.
"I, Adami, have worked my entire life for the glory of the Radiant Saint Master Union. I never thought that after working for the union for over two thousand years, not only would I fail to see the union achieve its glory, I would even cause the union to fall to my hands. I, Adami, am a sinner of the union," the president sighed. The president of the Radiant Saint Master Union sighed at the sky. His voice trembled slightly and was filled with misery. Tears even flickered in his old eyes.
In a deep mountain thousands of miles away from the City of God, a small wooden hut stood alone on a mountain peak. Inside the hut, Zaar Caiyun was still lying on the bed with her eyes closed. She had been unconscious for many years and still hadn't woken up.
"Caiyun, do you remember when we first met in the City of God? Back then, I was only an Earth Saint Master and was chased into the City of God by an evil person. I was heavily injured and my Space Ring had been taken away, so I was penniless. At the same time, I was unbearably thirsty. Without any other choice, I stole a set of clean clothes from a small family and changed into them. Afterward, I dragged my exhausted body to an inn to eat and drink. In the end, when I was paying the bill, I had originally planned on taking a beating in exchange for some money, but I never thought that you would suddenly appear at that crucial moment. Back then, you were so beautiful, like a fairy from the heavens. From the first moment I saw you, I was deeply attracted to you. "
"Back then, I still didn't know who you were. Not only did you help me pay the bill, but you could tell with a single glance that I was heavily injured as well. You gave me an extremely precious Class 6 Radiant Spirit Pill and constantly chatted with me. From that moment onwards, we became friends.
"I still remember how furious you were when you learned that I had been hunted down by an evil person. Afterward, you left the city with me to find that evil person. We worked together to kill that evil person …"
Hao Wu gently spoke as he held Zaar Caiyun's hand. Reminiscence and nostalgia filled his eyes. Zaar Caiyun had been unconscious for several years, and he had also stayed with her for several years. He had not left for even a single moment.
"Caiyun, do you still remember the promise we made back then? You said that once we were powerful enough, we would travel to the ends of the world and travel the entire continent. Caiyun, wake up. Let's fulfill our promise back then …"
On a lone island several million kilometers away from the Tian Yuan Continent, a barefoot, disheveled beggar-like person in tattered clothes crouched on the ground as he wolfed down a raw fish in his hand. "Eat, eat, eat. Eat. Eat. Eat. Eat. Eat. Eat.
Yang Yutian. I want to eat you. I want to eat your flesh and drink your blood. Hahahaha, isn't it painful? Cry out, cry out. Cry out. Cry out and struggle. Before me, master Yun Tian, it doesn't matter how you struggle. You'll still end up as food in the end. " The beggar-like person wolfed down the raw fish in his hand as he mumbled to himself in a rather crazy manner. He would giggle foolishly from time to time.
With a plop, a splash appeared on the shore. A huge fish over two feet long had accidentally leaped onto the shore. It struggled desperately in an attempt to return to the water.
The eyes of the man who was wolfing down the raw fish suddenly lit up. He threw away the unfinished fish in his hand and exclaimed, "Yang Yutian, don't run!" As he spoke, he quickly ran forward and pounced forward, pressing the big fish that was about to return to the water under his body. A stone on the ground made intimate contact with his mouth, causing blood to flow from his nose and mouth.
However, he didn't seem to feel any pain. He opened his mouth and spat out two broken teeth and a mouthful of dirty blood. He laughed foolishly in excitement, "Yang Yutian, I've caught you. I've caught you. Let's see how you're going to run now. In front of me, master Yun Tian, even if you have three heads and six arms, you won't be able to escape from my grasp. I want to eat your flesh and drink your blood."
He used his two heads to grab the fish that was under his chest. The fish immediately struggled with all its might in his hands, its mouth constantly opening and closing. Seeing this, Yun Tian became even more excited.
He laughed loudly and said, "Yang Yutian, I didn't think that you would have a day like this. Struggle, struggle with all your might. Scream out loud, scream, scream, beg for mercy. If you beg me, master Yun Tian, to spare you, perhaps I'll spare your life. Yang Yutian, why aren't you saying anything? Why aren't you begging for mercy?
