The Human World was in chaos, especially the Eastern Region. There were two forbidden areas in the Eastern Region. One was the Eastern Region Devil's Den and the other was the Sky Market. Legend had it that a corner of the Primordial Heavenly Court fell from the Nine Heavens.
Of course, this was only a legend. No one knew the reason for the formation of the Sky Market. It was too long ago, so there was no way to investigate it. It might be a ruin from the Mythological Era.
The Human World had gone through at least three eras. The eras that could be investigated included the Mythological Era and the Primordial Era.
After the Primordial Era was the present era.
However, in some ancient legends, there was an era that was even older than the Mythological Era.
As for the Human Realm, the Teng Long Continent, and the Eastern Sky Ruins, they had existed since the Mythological Era. They had existed for a very long time. Now, this Mythological Relic had become lively because the forbidden area of the Heavenly Realm, the Western Underworld Sea, had been leveled.
The news of the old turtle leveling the Western Dark Ocean spread to the Human World. All the cultivators in the Human World were extremely excited. They could finally ascend to the sky and enter the Heaven Realm.
The Eastern Region of Tenglong Continent was the most chaotic region in the entire Ancestral Dragon Star. This was because the Ancient Road to Heaven and the Devil's Den were here.
The Eastern Region was also the territory of the Dongfang Clan and the Primordial Zhao Clan. Gu Fei still occupied a place in the Eastern Region.
With so many forces in the Eastern Region, there was naturally no lack of friction. However, no one dared to touch the Wanxiang City. Although the Wanxiang City in the Eastern Region was not a big city, its status in the Eastern Region was very high.
This was because the City Lord of Wanxiang City was Gu Fei. After Gu Fei ascended to the sky, the person in charge of Wanxiang City was the Iron Blood Daoist and the only survivor of the 13 Great Bandits, Zhuge Liang.
Back when Hierarch Southern Heaven rebelled, the 13 Great Bandits were all killed by Hierarch Southern Heaven except for Zhuge Liang.
With Wanxiang City as the center, the area with a radius of 30,000 li was Gu Fei's sphere of influence. With the Iron Blood Daoist's cultivation and ability, it wasn't easy for him to protect such a territory.
If it wasn't for Ghost Emperor Fengdu's words, telling Gu Fei and the Eastern World to temporarily put aside their personal grievances and forbid the two forces from fighting, the Dongfang Family would've already attacked the Iron Blood Daoist.
In fact, the major forces of the Eastern Domain weren't afraid of Ghost Emperor Fengdu, but they were afraid of Jiang Renhuang. After knowing that Gu Fei and Jiang Renhuang were bosom buddies, all the people who were eyeing Wanxiang City covetously didn't dare to have any improper thoughts towards Wanxiang City.
One had to know that the Human Sovereign was an invincible existence in the current era. Even the Eastern Region Demon Lair was wary of Jiang Renhuang and didn't dare to make a move against Wanxiang City.
That evening, the Iron Blood Daoist stood on top of the city walls of Wanxiang City and looked into the distance. He saw demonic qi lingering in the mountain ridges.
"What the hell are these demon bastards doing?"
The Iron Blood Daoist muttered to himself. Things like this kept happening recently, and he had a bad premonition. Could it be that those demon bastards were actually going to attack this place?
"If the Lord is here, let's see who would dare to have any ideas towards Wanxiang City."
The Iron Blood Daoist said. He thought of Gu Fei, but he still didn't have any news of Gu Fei. Ever since the news came from the Sky Market that the Heaven Realm's forbidden area, the Western Underworld Ocean, had been flattened, he had been waiting.
He believed that the Lord would be back very soon.
"Boss, do you think the Lord will be back in the near future?"
At this moment, Zhuge Liang also climbed up the city walls and came to the Iron Blood Daoist's side.
"I don't know either. Since the Path to Heaven is no longer dangerous, the Lord should be back. He can't possibly forget about us."
The Iron Blood Daoist said as he looked at the sunset.
Just as the Iron Blood Daoist and Zhuge Liang were talking on the city walls, an ancient formation platform behind the Wanxiang City Lord's Mansion suddenly activated without any warning.
A powerful energy fluctuation spread out from the City Lord's Mansion.
"What …"
The Iron Blood Daoist's expression suddenly changed. He immediately rushed down from the city walls and rushed towards the Lord's Mansion. Very quickly, he returned to the Lord's Mansion.
"What happened?"
Zhuge Liang was extremely shocked. He also rushed towards the Lord's Mansion as if his butt was on fire.
When the Iron Blood Daoist arrived in front of the Teleportation Formation platform in the Lord's Mansion, a figure walked out from a pitch-black whirlpool above the Teleportation Formation platform.
When the Iron Blood Daoist saw this person, he was extremely excited.
When Zhuge Liang, who was a step behind the Iron Blood Daoist, saw the figure walking out of the void, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
The person who walked out of the void was a handsome young man in black clothes.
"Lord, is it really you?"
At this moment, the Iron Blood Daoist's voice was trembling.
"It's not who I am."
The black-clothed young man said with a faint smile. He was finally back here. He was very curious as to how the Iron Blood Daoist and Zhuge Liang managed to persevere.
After all, after he went to the Heaven Realm, it would be a piece of cake for those big forces in the Eastern Region to seize the Wanxiang City.
However, he immediately guessed the reason.
"Lord …"
Zhuge Liang was so excited that he was about to cry. Gu Fei's return was too timely. Because the Eastern Region was very chaotic, if there was no powerful being guarding the Wanxiang City, the city would be seized by other forces sooner or later.
"Alright, let's talk inside."
Gu Fei said.
Then, under the Iron Blood Daoist's lead, he arrived at the main hall in front of the Lord's Mansion. He did not stand on ceremony and directly sat on the throne in the middle of the main hall.
Then, the Iron Blood Daoist passed down an order to gather all the important figures in the Wanxiang City. Soon, the main hall of the Lord's Mansion became lively.
Ever since Gu Fei left, the Iron Blood Daoist had been searching for his subordinates who had escaped the calamity. At the same time, he had also recruited some rogue cultivators to work for him.
In this chaotic era, if the rogue cultivators wanted to survive, they had to rely on powerful forces. Many rogue cultivators relied on the Iron Blood Daoist.
Therefore, during the time when Gu Fei was not around, the Iron Blood Daoist managed to build up a powerful force.
Other than Zhuge Liang, the Iron Blood Daoist also had three sage level experts under him. At this moment, the three saints had also arrived at the main hall of the Lord's Mansion.
They were shocked to find that the Iron Blood Daoist, who usually sat on the throne, was standing below the throne. On the throne sat a black-clothed young man.
Seeing the Iron Blood Daoist's respectful attitude towards the green-clothed young man, the three saints could not help but be shocked. They thought of a person, a fierce person.
"Could it be that he has returned?"
The three saints were extremely shocked. If that person had returned, then they might be able to achieve great things by following this person.
The three saints were very clear about the Iron Blood Daoist's background. In fact, the reason why they relied on the Iron Blood Daoist was mostly because of that person.
The Iron Blood Daoist was also very clear about the reason why the three saints relied on him.
However, there were also some people who did not think highly of that person, so they continued to observe. However, as the situation worsened, even the saints had to work hard to survive.
Those lone saints would either rely on those super factions or form an alliance. However, in the long run, the best choice was still to rely on those super factions.
At this moment, in the main hall of the Wanxiang City's Lord's Mansion, everyone was guessing the origins of the black-clothed young man sitting on the throne.
Some people had already vaguely guessed who this black-clothed young man was.
"All of you have come to greet the master. He is your master."
The Iron Blood Daoist's gaze swept across everyone's faces and said this.
"Master."
Hearing this, everyone in the main hall was both surprised and overjoyed. That person has finally returned? Doesn't that mean that he has successfully passed the tribulation?
"Greetings, master."
The three saints standing at the front of the crowd looked at each other before prostrating towards the black-clothed young man sitting on the throne.
"What …"
Seeing the three of them prostrating towards the black-clothed young man, everyone in the main hall was extremely shocked. This was because the three of them were powerful existences at the Sage level.
It was impossible for such existences to bow to someone weaker than them. There was only one possibility — that person's cultivation was much stronger than the three of them.
"Greetings, master."
Everyone else in the main hall hurriedly prostrated as well.
Even the Heaven, Earth, and Human Saints prostrated before the throne. They were not saints, so there was no reason for them to not prostrate.
"Very good. Get up."
Gu Fei sat on the throne and nodded. From the expressions of the people prostrating before him, he knew that some of them did not know who he was.
"This is a greeting gift. Take whatever you like."
Gu Fei waved his hand and a pile of items fell from the void. The main hall was immediately filled with a divine radiance and the aura of treasures.
Everything floated in the void and emitted an immortal radiance and divine radiance.
There were divine swords that emanated a horrifying aura of slaughter, immortal blades that were branded with ancient talismans, and even over 10 divine herbs.
Every single divine herb was like a sun that was enveloped in a ball of dazzling spiritual light.
However, a few of the items that Gu Fei tossed out were very ordinary. They did not emanate any divine radiance, nor did they emanate powerful fluctuations of Divine Power or Immortal Force.
"This …"
Everyone was stunned by what they saw in front of them. This Lord was really generous. He actually gave away so many good things. Those divine weapons were definitely incomparably powerful immortal weapons or divine weapons.
Especially those 10 divine herbs. Those were rare things in the world, and even a saint would not be able to produce so many divine herbs at once.
Right when everyone was stunned, the three saints moved. They were the first to recover from their shock, and they immediately put away the three ordinary ancient treasures.
The dozen or so stalks of divine medicine were also divided up by them.
