They entered the city!
The city was shrouded in white mist, and everyone and everything seemed to be shrouded in an illusion. Even though all the buildings had become dilapidated after countless years, and looked like ruins, every brick and tile still exuded an indescribable holy aura, which made people feel comfortable and relaxed all over.
As soon as they entered the light, a huge white stone statue, which seemed to have its head touching the sky and its feet stepping on the ground, immediately entered the eyes of Xiao Fan and the others. Not only did Xiao Fan and the others look over, but everyone who entered the City of Light, without exception, could not help but focus their eyes on this stone statue, and they could not take their eyes off it at all.
"This... is the stone statue of the Lord Divine Light?"
Mu Junsu suddenly opened her mouth, and for some reason, her breathing suddenly became incomparably rapid. Her eyes were filled with deep reverence, and her consciousness seemed to have sunk into an abyss, unable to break free, and almost suffocated to death.
Although it was Mu Junsu's first time coming to the City of Light, she had heard before that in every City of Light in the Central imperial realm, there must be a stone statue of the Lord Divine Light at the city gate.
The huge milky-white stone statue in front of her was at the entrance of the City of Light, and she could see it as soon as she entered the city gate. Naturally, there was no doubt that it was the stone statue of the Lord Divine Light.
"The Lord Divine Light!"
Hearing Mu Junsu's words, Kōjirō, Lin Shan, Lime, Jiang Yi, Ningshuang, and the others, and even Xingqing, could not help but stop breathing, and their pupils suddenly contracted. Their hearts beat wildly, and there was a boundless sense of reverence in their hearts. Their consciousness shook violently, and there was a strong feeling of suffocation.
The Lord God of Light, the ruler of the Kingdom of Light, was one of the most powerful people in the Central imperial realm. Every word and action of his could change the fate of countless living beings. In front of such an existence, everyone had to be respectful. Even in this remote and boundlessly remote lower province, his name spread far and wide. There was no one who did not know of him.
Therefore, at this moment, when Mu Junsu first mentioned these four words, a huge invisible pressure swept over like a huge wave from the void, causing people to tremble and bend their backs. They wanted to kneel down and kowtow to the stone statue of the Lord Divine Light.
But right at this moment!
Xiao Fan gently stepped on the ground. All of a sudden, it was as though a bolt of lightning had exploded in everyone's hearts. It was as though a huge bell had reverberated in the vast and boundless universe. Lin Shan, Lime, and the others seemed to have awoken from a dream. They regained their consciousness and immediately calmed down. The reverence they had for the Lord God of Light had completely dissipated without a trace.
"The Lord God of Light is, after all, an existence that is infinitely close to being a Great Emperor!" Xiao Fan spoke once again, and he nodded as he spoke. His voice was calm as before, and it was neither slow nor hurried. "His cultivation and ability are indeed rather shocking. In the entire world, there are indeed very few people that can truly compare to him!
"And he is especially good at bewitching people. His stone statues will naturally contain his unique bewitching Daoist Rhyme. Anyone who sees his stone statues will be shocked by this bewitching Daoist Rhyme, and then their mind will fall into endless shock and fear. From then on, the seed of deep reverence for him will be planted, and it is almost impossible to get rid of!"
"In the Central and Upper Provinces, there are many people who have seen the stone statue of the Lord God of Light and planted the seed of intense reverence for him. Eventually, when the seed grows into a big tree, the person will become a loyal follower of the Lord God of Light. He will have no doubts about it and join the Kingdom of Light, becoming a member and giving his all for the Kingdom of Light!"
"Although the stone statue in the City of Light has been here for a long time and the entire City of Light has been completely abandoned, the bewitching Dao aura still exists and has not weakened much. Now that you've seen it for the first time, you'll naturally be attracted by it!"
"The Kingdom of Light once built Cities of Light all over the world. There must be a stone statue of the Lord God of Light in every City of Light, and there is no lack of such Bewitching Dao Essence!"
"But this kind of means is really a little despicable!" After Xiao Fan's explanation, Lin Shan had already figured out why he was so shocked and lost his composure. However, he was still a little upset and spoke with great dissatisfaction.
"It's just a means. There's nothing noble or despicable about it!" Xiao Fan shook his head and said, "It's all about killing the enemy. How can we talk about who is righteous and who is evil?"
"Whether it's righteous or evil, it's just the declaration of the winner!"
"Master is right!" Hearing Xiao Fan's words, Lin Shan was suddenly relieved and immediately nodded. "I was too rigid!"
Xiao Fan did not speak again, lifted his foot and walked forward. The others all followed, slowly walking into the depths of the City of Light.
And as they continued to move forward in the City of Light, the stunning beauty of Akira Yuki, Xingqing, Kōjirō and the other women around Xiao Fan, plus Ning Shuang, who had re-joined the team, a total of seven women, naturally attracted many people to stop and watch.
Many men stood there with a dull look on their faces, their eyes following the movements of Akira Yuki and the other women. They did not move for a long time, their eyes full of admiration.
However.
Even so, no one came up to talk to them shamelessly, or even provoke them to death. Because the Southern Yuan area was bitter and cold, there were no disciples of large sects who were willing to come here. Although the City of Light was once glorious, but now there were only loose cultivators who came here to search for treasures. It could be said that the people of the City of Light were all bitter.
Living in the lower strata of society, life was not easy. They had to be careful when they did things. Furthermore, Xiao Fan and the others all had extraordinary bearings. It was obvious that they did not have simple backgrounds. Therefore, who would dare to mess around with them?
No one at all!
After walking for a while, when Xiao Fan led Lin Shan, Lime and the others and was about to turn into another street and head to the real destination of the City of Light, a few extremely surprised voices suddenly sounded in the ears of Xiao Fan and the others, "Ning Shuang, Jiang Yi!"
Hearing the voice, Xiao Fan and the others suddenly stopped, and then turned their heads to look in the direction of the voice.
Behind them were several young people, both men and women. At this moment they were all looking at Ning Shuang and Jiang Yi with a look of surprise and said in unison.
"Lu Yao, Lu Hao...!"
Seeing the several young men and women, Ning Shuang and Jiang Yi also immediately turned their heads to look at them, and then a smile appeared on their faces. They called out their names, turned around, and quickly walked toward them.
"After we parted ways in Clear Wind City, I did not expect to meet the two of you again here. This time we must have a good gathering!" The several young men and women gathered together with Ning Shuang and Jiang Yi, and smiled as they recounted their farewell.
"Didn't you enter the Sky Firmament Academy? You suddenly came to the City of Light because you have a mission? Do you need us to help? " Before Jiang Yi and Ning Shuang could say anything, a cute girl among them spoke up, her voice full of enthusiasm.
"Yes!" The others also opened their mouths one after another, and were also very enthusiastic. "If the two of you need our help, just say the word, we will do our best!"
"Although we are not disciples of any big sects and are just rogue cultivators with limited strength, we do not have many things, but we have many friends!" A long-haired woman, whose temperament and appearance were superior to the others, spoke up at this moment. She then smiled and said, "If you have any information that you need, you can hand it over to us!"
"Lu Yao, you have misunderstood!" Ning Shuang looked at the long-haired woman and smiled, then shook her head and said, "We came to the City of Light for other matters, not for the mission that the Sky Firmament Academy gave us!"
"In fact, we are no longer disciples of the Sky Firmament Academy. From now on, we have nothing to do with the Sky Firmament Academy!"
"What?" Hearing Ning Shuang's words, the several young men and women were stunned as if they had been struck by lightning. They stared at Ning Shuang and Jiang Yi with their mouths agape. They could not believe their ears and were completely shocked!
After a full ten breaths of time!
"Ning Shuang, you... are not joking, right?" The cute girl exclaimed. Her voice was slightly high and sharp, attracting the attention of many people on the side of the road, who stopped to watch.
"Indeed!" Jiang Yi also spoke at this moment. He nodded and said, "We have already left the Sky Firmament Academy and are no longer disciples of the Sky Firmament Academy!"
"But why did you leave the Sky Firmament Academy?" One of the young men and women could not understand Ning Shuang and Jiang Yi's actions and shook his head repeatedly. His voice was full of regret, "You must know that it is the Sky Firmament Academy. Many people have tried their best to enter but failed. You have clearly entered, but now you have left the Sky Firmament Academy. This is really, really, really, sigh!"
"It is just a mere Sky Firmament Academy. Back then, the reason why we joined was because we were curious about this place and wanted to go in and have a look!" Ning Shuang shook her head and said indifferently, "After entering, we found out that it was actually just so-so. It is not the cultivation holy land that we imagined it to be. The people there are all Sages, supreme!"
"Just like other Holy Lands, Sects, and Clans, it is filled with all kinds of dark internal conflicts. Moreover, the conflicts there are more tragic than other places!"
"Since that is the case, why stay there? It is better to withdraw! "
Hearing Ning Shuang's words, the group of young men and women did not say anything else. They just looked at Ning Shuang and Jiang Yi with a strange look in their eyes. Although they still maintained the joyful smile of reuniting with Ning Shuang and Jiang Yi after a long time, the enthusiasm in their eyes had obviously decreased and was no longer as hot as before.
