…
In the east, a group of white-robed swordsmen were ferociously returning to the Sword Manor.
Zheng Mei's master was standing on her flying sword. Her face turned pale when she saw the ravaged valley and the lake, as well as the countless bloodstains.
It was over. The White Robe Sword Sect had been invaded by the Devil Sect. The people inside had probably been slaughtered by those bastards of the Devil Sect. When he thought of this, a kind of sadness welled up in his heart. His anger also surged.
"Sect Master, Master, Elders …"
Lin Zhong, Mingxiu, and the others were standing in front of the manor, shouting at the people returning to the Sword Manor.
A group of white-robed swordsmen landed in front of the ruined manor and glanced at the people left behind to guard the manor.
"Where are the Demon Sect's disciples?" the White Robe Sword Sect's Sect Master asked.
"They were defeated," Lin Zhong replied.
"Just the few of you?" Zheng Mei's master asked in surprise.
"It's that Swordmaster Zhu from the Distant Mountain Sword Sect …" Mingxiu immediately described how Zhu Minglang defeated the Demon Sect's predecessors all by himself.
"He's all by himself?"
The Sect Master, Master, and Elders exchanged glances with one another. Even the Sect Master was not confident that he could defeat the Demon Sect's army led by Demon Supremacy Lu Jiang!
The Sword Manor was saved. Apart from the disciples who were executed during the Demon Sect's sneak attack, most of the people were still alive. Some of the important foundations of the Sword Manor were also preserved.
The Sect Master and Master wanted to thank Zhu Minglang in person, but he had already left the mountain, hiding his achievements and fame!
"If the Distant Mountain Sword Sect is in trouble in the future, the White Robe Sword Sect will definitely help you!" the Sect Master said firmly to the members of the White Robe Sword Sect.
"We'll help you!"
"We'll help you!"
There were many family members of the swordsmen in the Sword Manor. If the Devil Cult took advantage of the situation and massacred them, what was the point of their powerful cultivation? This gratitude was naturally buried in the hearts of these swordsmen in white!
…
The white-haired master was very kind. He taught Zhu Minglang a few of the simplest and most powerful flying sword techniques.
After Zhu Minglang learned it, he bowed and left the territory of the White Robe Sword Sect.
It was better for people to come out more often. Not only had he picked up a female disciple of the Demon Sect as his personal maidservant in this desolate wilderness, he had also learned several practical flying sword sword techniques. In the future, even if he did not use Sword Awakening, he would be able to kill his enemies invisibly!
"With this ability, he should be able to move unhindered in Li Chuan," Zhu Minglang sighed with emotion.
When they left Li River, they had crossed mountains and ridges. Even with the Divine Wood Azure Dragon riding them, it still took a very long time.
When he returned to Li River, Zhu Minglang flew on his sword with his hands clasped behind his back. His hair fluttered in the cool breeze high up in the sky. He was in the clouds, and sometimes there were mountains and plains beneath his feet, and sometimes there were the lights of tens of thousands of homes. How could he be described as free and unfettered and divine?
…
After a thousand miles, another thousand miles had passed. After not seeing them for so long, Zhu Minglang still missed his wives and sisters-in-law. Considering that they had too many secrets, Zhu Minglang also needed to show his absolute strength to deal with them.
There were two things that Zhu Minglang was more concerned about.
The first was the matter of the ancient ruins in the Li River.
What exactly were the ancient ruins? Although there were similar ancient ruins in the Polar Court Continent, it seemed that even Zhu Tianguan had said that the ruins in Li River were very special. Where were the ancient ruins in Li River hidden?
The second was about the Otherworldly Guests, which had come from Zhu Xuehen. What did these people represent?
Li Yunzi had always been preparing for a rainy day. What exactly was she guarding against? What was it that kept her restless?
Along the way, Zhu Minglang heard more and more news about Li River.
Zhu Minglang vaguely felt that Li River might not be as simple as it seemed. Moreover, Zhu Minglang found that a large number of experts from the Polar Court Continent were flocking to Li River. While resting in the cities and relay stations, Zhu Minglang heard more than once that some teams of Divine Mortals and Dragon Shepherds were heading in the direction of Li River.
Did the Primordial Relic appear?
The new ancient ruins were like a treasure mountain to the people of the Polar Court Continent. There were too many extremely old treasures of heaven and earth, and there was also the possibility of discovering the Strange Dragon Sacred Beast, which had already gone extinct on the continent, or the Spirit Vein Secret Realm, which was enough to sustain a clan for a long time.
Last year, Li River was still a desolate piece of land in the easternmost part of the barren land. But overnight, it had become a new continent, a land of gold. All the major forces were sending people there, and even individual cultivators were flocking to it …
At a mobile stronghold, Zhu Minglang saw a group of young travelers, so he asked, "Bro, is there some kind of Golden Tree Immortal Mountain growing in Li River? Why is everyone heading there? Did the ruler there develop some kind of scenic spot and deliberately spread the word about the ancient ruins? In fact, it's just to attract tourists and sell souvenirs like Lingzhi mushrooms that don't have much Spiritual Qi but are ridiculously priced."
That young traveler looked at Zhu Minglang with disdain and sized him up. Seeing that he still had two young pet spirits by his side, he showed some impatience and said, "You are really ignorant. What has appeared in Li Chuan is not some dilapidated remains but a 'door'!"
"A door?" Zhu Minglang was confused.
"Yes, a Celestial Door, a Heavenly Door, a door that leads to the Celestial Land!"
"Has anyone gone in? What's inside?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"There's everything inside. Holy Dragons can be seen everywhere, Ancestral Dragons crawl in the mountains and valleys, Celestial Fruits are everywhere, and Spirit Veins are inexhaustible!" the young traveler said.
"Do people believe that?" Zhu Minglang raised his eyebrows.
"You don't understand. Back then, the land of Li River flew over from outer space, bordering our Polar Court Continent. Since it's outer space, why aren't there any Celestial Immortal Caves or Celestial Kingdoms?" the young traveler said.
"Uh …" Zhu Minglang didn't know how to refute that for a moment.
Back then, Zhu Minglang had stood in the land of Li River. From his point of view, it was obvious that the Polar Court Continent had streaked across the sky and bordered the land of Li River on the westernmost side.
And from the perspective of the Polar Court Continent, there was nothing wrong with Li River being a star flying over.
A door?
Zhu Minglang didn't know how much of what these people said was true. In short, Li River had become a hot spot in the Polar Court Continent overnight. It felt like no matter where he went, there were people discussing the miracle that had appeared in Li River.
On the side of the Imperial Court, it was obvious that they had been prepared for a long time. They'd had the idea of paving the way for this from the beginning when they'd let the Rui Kingdom attack Li River. After they'd found out that Li River was a tough nut to crack, they'd simply chosen to enlist and integrate Li River into the Polar Court Continent's plate.
