The Earth Exalt Wang Zhengcheng had no personal enmity with Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain.
If there was a conflict between the two, it would lie in two points.
One was the Dim Radiant Wheel that Yan Zhaoge possessed.
The other was Yan Di's wife, Xue Chuqing, Yan Zhaoge's mother.
The root cause of these two was that the Dim Radiant Emperor Yin Tianxia and the Bright Connection Emperor Hu Yuexin had likely done something that disagreed with the Earthly Sovereign.
The Concealed Sovereign was likely on the Earthly Sovereign's side in this matter.
If it was because of the Dim Radiant Wheel, Yan Zhaoge's whereabouts would not be hard to find. Those of the Earthly Sovereign's lineage at Qilin Cliff would probably have long since come knocking.
Therefore, it could only be because of Xue Chuqing whose whereabouts were uncertain.
Xue Chuqing herself was not important. What was important was that she might possess some treasure or know some secret.
This was what the Earth Exalt Wang Zhengcheng valued.
As the Lord of the central Jun Heaven Territory and the chief steward of the entire World beyond Worlds, since Yan Zhaoge and his father had the Sword Sovereign supporting them, the Heaven Emperor, Zhuang Shen and the others would naturally be helpless against them.
Under such circumstances, there was no need for him to pay attention to their enmity.
His attention was naturally placed on other matters.
"Is there such a possibility? With today's chance, us father and son will become famous, our relationship with senior apprentice-uncle Yue known to the entire world. Thus, mother will be misled. "
Yan Zhaoge sent to Yan Di via sound transmission, "Mother will be misled into thinking that the Sword Sovereign who neither supported nor opposed her before will protect her now, thus no longer hiding and coming to find us."
Yan Di's tone was icy cold, "That is not impossible. Still, he is wrong in thinking this."
"He probably does not want to have a head-on conflict with senior apprentice-uncle Yue's Jade Capital Crag." Yan Zhaoge exhaled slowly, "Instead, he wants to intercept us midway, not letting us know at all. Since his whereabouts were unknown before, his whereabouts will forever be unknown then."
Cold light flickered within Yan Di's eyes as he pondered momentarily before saying, "They will be watching us now, but we will be watching them too."
"Precisely so," Yan Zhaoge nodded.
The Northeastern Exalt Liu Zhenggu now said, "Since the Earthly Sovereign and Concealed Sovereign will not directly interfere, it should not be a problem for Broad Creed West to enter the southern Blazing Heaven Territory."
"Setting up the Ten Directions Wishful Formation again will require around a hundred years. Barring any major accidents, Southern Zhuang's death will not affect the overall situation of the World beyond Worlds."
Zhuang Shen, Peng He, Zhang Shuren and many other peak experts had perished. While Phoenix Ritual Mountain's Wutong Slope still had the ninth level Martial Saint 'Phoenix Crying Southern Territory' Mao Yuansheng, they were already destined to be unable to rule over the southern Blazing Heaven Territory.
In order to avoid Broad Creed Mountain and Golden Court Mountain coming back to find trouble with them, Wutong Slope's lineage would definitely have to go into hiding or even migrate.
"Southern Zhuang is a character. As long as Wutong Slope doesn't conspire against us in secret, our sect doesn't have any plans to exterminate them." Yan Di said, "Still, if they do not give up, I do not mind ending this lineage of theirs."
The Southwestern Exalt Bai Tao said, "In the current World beyond Worlds, there are a few martial practitioners of the ninth level of the Martial Saint realm who are merely a half-step away from the Human Exalt stage, able to break through at any time."
Others might not know, but people at their level had heard of it.
"However, senior apprentice-uncle Yan, you and junior apprentice-brother Yan possess extraordinary strength. While you are only at the Immortal Bridge Realm, you are comparable to Exalts."
"While you are lacking in terms of status, it would not be difficult for you to reign supreme over the south in terms of strength."
Bai Tao continued, "As Elder Liu of the northeast says, the current vacancy of the Ten Exalts does not affect us greatly. Also, someone should be able to fill it very soon."
"Even if there isn't, with your strength and potential, you will definitely be able to ascend to the Human Exalt stage in less than a hundred years."
Cao Jie and Liu Zhenggu both nodded.
Actually, even if someone immediately broke through to the Human Exalt stage now and filled in Zhuang Shen's position, it would still be very awkward.
Broad Creed Mountain was on good terms with Golden Court Mountain. Therefore, they did not intend to venture too deeply into the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory.
They would not stand on ceremony with other directions.
At that time, how would the new Southern Exalt face the two Immortal Bridge Martial Saints who were likely to be stronger than him, not weaker?
Also, these two Immortal Bridge Martial Saints were of the same family.
Let alone newly ascended Exalts, even the other nine Exalts of Ten Territories aside from the Upper Exalt Chen Qianhua and the Earth Exalt Wang Zhengcheng would be facing a tough task.
"It is not that there are no exceptions …" Cao Jie and Liu Zhenggu's hearts jolted slightly as their gazes focused on the same person.
Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di were actually also looking at that black-clothed youth beside Bai Tao at this moment.
"Senior apprentice-brother Nie should be one of those who might be able to attain the Human Exalt stage at any time?" Yan Zhaoge asked.
A warm smile appeared on the black-clothed youth's usually cold, resolute face, "I can do it now. Still, I will wait a little longer."
"I have come here this time to congratulate senior apprentice-uncle Yan and junior apprentice-brother Yan's Broad Creed Mountain. It is not that my Jade Capital Crag wants the position of an Exalt."
His tone was casual as if he was speaking of something that could not be any more ordinary.
In the ears of ordinary people, it would probably be like a sudden clap of thunder.
Yet, everyone present, Yan Zhaoge, Yan Di, Yuan Zhengfeng and those of Broad Creed Mountain, did not feel surprised at all.
Earlier, the Heaven Emperor and the others had mainly focused their attention on the Female Emperor, Jie Mingkong.
Yet, when Bai Tao and the others had appeared, other than the Heaven Emperor whose expression was as per usual, Zhuang Shen, Lang Qing and the others all clearly showed signs of fear.
They were not just afraid of their Jade Capital Crag background. Instead, they were afraid of their own strength.
It was just that the person whom Zhuang Shen and the others were particularly concerned about was not the Southwestern Exalt Bai Tao who was also one of the Ten Exalts.
Instead, it was the silent and cold black-clothed youth!
"Two hundred years ago, Little Sword God. A hundred years ago, Young Master Tian."
This was a rather widespread saying in the World beyond Worlds.
Apart from this proverb, there was another one that was equally famous.
"Kunlun God Shocking Dragon, Youth Point Eight Sects."
The latter half of these two sentences referred to the same person, the former Heavenly Young Master and current Upper Exalt, Chen Qianhua.
Before Chen Qianhua had ascended to the Human Exalt realm, he had roamed the World beyond Worlds, guiding and educating the eight major powers and helping them perfect and improve their martial arts.
These eight great forces were spread all over the world, and now they had all become famous sects that dominated a region.
The southeastern Yang Heaven Territory's Green Peak Plateau's Three Foot Mountain was merely one of them.
The Eight Great Orthodox Sects each had their own strengths and techniques. Their styles differed greatly, but they all had as many experts as there were clouds in the sky, and their martial arts were exquisite.
However, the martial arts of the eight great sects had all benefited from Chen Qianhua's guidance, which was why they could achieve what they were today.
At that time, although Chen Qianhua was young and had yet to reach the Supremacy Stage, he was already secretly regarded as the leader of the eight great sects.
As a result, it was known as the "Eight Great Sects of Youth Points".
The first half of the second sentence, "Kunlun's God Shocking Dragon", referred to another person.
This person's name was Nie Jingshen.
While he was younger than Long Xueji and Chen Qianhua, he was publicly acknowledged by the World beyond Worlds as yet another supreme genius after the Little Sword God and the Heavenly Young Master.
Kunlun Mountain's Northern High Peak's Jade Capital Crag, Sword Sovereign Yue Zhenbei's closed-door disciple.
Awakening God Sword, Nie Jingshen.
It was rumored that he was an orphan and the Sword Emperor had met him by chance.
When they met, the Sword Emperor's Saber vibrated on its own in the sheath!
Even the Sword Emperor was surprised by his strangeness. He brought him back to the Jade Capital Crag to be raised and named him Nie Jingshen.
His name was Jingshen, and his title was Jingshen. His swordsmanship was so shocking that even ghosts and gods would weep.
He had battled the lofty Northwestern Exalt Lian Zulin to a draw that year.
That battle was just a spar, so it was considered a draw.
Apart from themselves, no one knew what would happen if they fought to the death.
Only Lian Zulin's words were passed down.
Under the Sword Emperor's tutelage, God-Shaking ranked first.
At that time, Nie Jingshen had been an eighth level Martial Saint.
