Tang Xiu was right. In the Immortal World, there were many disciples of major sects and sects. Due to the abundance of resources, many children of important figures in the Immortal World received various elixirs and medicines before they were even born. Some children with extremely high bloodlines were already comparable to Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage experts the moment they were born. There were even some who had powerful bloodlines from prehistoric beasts and ancient Immortal Beasts that were born with strength comparable to ordinary Immortals.
"Let the children win at the starting line."
These words were once familiar to people on Earth, but they were now famous sayings.
Su Lingyun knew that her son was amazing, so she was willing to let Tan Xiu make the decisions regarding cultivation.
"Master."
With a smile, Gu Yan 'er floated over from afar.
Tan Xiu handed his younger brother, Tang Xing, to his mother and smilingly said, "Have you finished your seclusion?"
"I just finished." Gu Yan 'er nodded with a smile.
"How long will it take for you to break through to the Perfected Golden Immortal Stage?" asked Tan Xiu.
"The time is too short. I can't break through to the Perfected Golden Immortal Stage for the time being." Gu Yan 'er shook her head. "But it won't be a problem within 100 years."
"Let's go!" Tan Xiu slightly smiled. "I have something to do with you."
Shortly after.
The duo appeared on an isolated island in the Misty Spring Ocean. Just as Gu Yan 'er looked confused, four figures appeared from the mist.
"Your Majesty."
The leader, Jin Shi, respectfully handed over an interspatial ring.
Tan Xiu took the ring and scanned its interior with his spiritual sense. He then nodded with satisfaction and asked, "How's the development of the Intelligence Department?"
"Our intelligence personnel are everywhere in the entire Immortal Lyceum Domain," said Jin Shi. "Our intelligence network has been spread out in the Senluo Immortal Domain in the southeast, Obsidian Immortal Domain in the west, and Aquamarine Immortal Domain in the north. It's estimated that the intelligence network in these three Immortal Domains will be completed within three years. However, in order to purchase magical stones and crystals, as well as the cost of intelligence, I've used up all the crystals and marrow crystals that you gave me. "
Tan Xiu thought for a moment and said, "Give me two months, then I'll give you enough Immortal Crystals and Crystal Essences for your Shadow Division to use for 100 years."
"Yes!"
Jin Shi nodded and suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, we've noticed a situation. An old man with unfathomable cultivation base has been coming to our Immortal Lyceum since a dozen days ago. He's been asking about you everywhere. According to my calculations, he should be arriving at the Misty Spring Ocean soon. "
Tan Xiu asked, "Who are they?"
"Old Sycamore," said Jin Shi.
Tan Xiu raised his brows and murmured, "I didn't expect that he would come looking for me. Fine, since you're here, stay and work for me! Investigate his whereabouts immediately and send me a message as soon as possible. Also, if you find any traces of him, immediately inform him that I'm here. "
"Yes!"
Jin Shi replied. He immediately walked to the side and sent out dozens of Message Sigils in a row. It didn't take long before a Message Sigil penetrated the misty ocean and lit up in front of everyone. When Jin Shi handed the Message Sigil to Tan Xiu, Tan Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
Celestial Boundary City.
Old Sycamore was sitting in the largest restaurant in the city, his eyes sweeping through the streets outside the window. On the street not far from him, a group of soldiers of the Great Tang Empire in battle robes was besieging two black-robed men. The two black-robed men had very strong cultivation and had already reached the Crossing Tribulation Stage. The soldiers of the Great Tang Empire besieging them were only at the Great Ascension Stage, except for the captain who was at the Celestial Immortal Stage.
"The Great Tang Empire has gone too far!"
A hazy figure appeared out of thin air. It was a white-haired woman with killing intent in her eyes. She angrily shouted, "If you continue to pester us, then don't blame us for being ruthless and killing all of you here."
The Celestial Immortal captain held a spear and looked at the white-haired woman as if he was facing a great enemy. He said in a deep voice, "It's you who didn't abide by the laws of the Great Tang Empire and openly killed others in the city. Also, if you can explain your identity and the grudges you have with the people you killed, you can still get a chance to be absolved. But you were too arrogant and ignored us, so we can only capture you and hand you over to the Ministry of Justice for punishment. "
The white-haired woman shouted angrily, "This place used to belong to the Immortal Lyceum and was the territory of Apotheosis Bella. You occupied this place and even made laws here. Why should we submit to you? "
The Celestial Immortal captain said coldly, "His Majesty of the Great Tang Empire once said that the Immortal World is a world where the strong are respected. Our Great Tang Empire has a strong army and is powerful, so we can naturally make laws. Those who obey us will prosper, and those who oppose us will perish. If you don't want to abide by the laws of the Great Tang Empire, you can leave this place. But since you have violated our laws here, you must be punished. "
The white-haired woman said coldly, "With just you?"
In the teahouse.
Old Sycamore agreed with the words of the Great Tang Empire's Celestial Immortal captain. The Immortal World is indeed a world where the strong are respected. As long as one has absolute strength, they can make laws. In particular, the phrase "those who obey me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish" struck a chord in his heart.
It's a pity that this Heavenly Mirror City is just a small city of the Immortal Lyceum, and the Immortal stationed here is only a Golden Immortal. That white-haired woman is a late-stage Golden Immortal, so I'm afraid it will be too difficult to subdue her. Old Sycamore shook his head and sighed inwardly.
"Oh?"
Old Sycamore's expression suddenly changed as he looked at the teahouse's waiter who was dressed like a manservant.
The waiter looked outside through the window and immediately cupped his fists. "This junior is a member of the Great Tang Empire's Shadow Department. Greetings, Senior Old Sycamore."
Old Sycamore furrowed his brows and asked, "What's the meaning of being a member of the Great Tang Empire's Shadow Department? How do you know me? "
The waiter replied respectfully, "The Shadow Department is the Great Tang Empire's intelligence network, and I'm the person in charge of Heavenly Mirror City. In fact, you've already appeared in the line of sight of our Shadow Department's intelligence members the moment Senior stepped into the Immortal Lyceum. Just a quarter of an hour ago, I received a message from the head of the headquarters informing me of the answer you've been looking for. "
Old Sycamore's expression changed and he asked in a deep voice, "Where is the Great Tang Heavenly Emperor?"
The waiter replied, "Senior, you'll know the location of His Majesty immediately if you help us settle the matter outside."
Whoosh …
Old Sycamore instantly appeared in the sky above the street outside and pressed down on the white-haired woman with a powerful aura. He said coldly, "You have two choices. Tell me your identity and the grudge between you and the victim. Or, kill them on the spot. "
The white-haired woman's pupils contracted and a look of horror appeared in her eyes. She had never imagined that the Great Tang Empire would have a Perfected Golden Immortal in Heavenly Mirror City. Moreover, this Perfected Golden Immortal's cultivation was extremely terrifying and definitely not at the early stages of the Perfected Golden Immortal stage.
"Senior, I'm the Sect Master of the Sky Arcana Sect, Xue Ningshuang. We've chased and killed the traitor of my Sky Arcana Sect, Xuan Fei. He humiliated and killed my daughter and stole my Sky Arcana Sect's Bright Sun Immortal Mirror. Although we despise the laws of the Great Tang Empire, we have no intention of deliberately offending them. "
Old Sycamore looked at the Celestial Immortal captain and said indifferently, "She has already said that you can decide how to deal with this matter."
The Celestial Immortal captain pondered for a moment and sent out a Message Signet. After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a Message Signet came back. Immediately, a look of understanding appeared on his face and he said lightly, "You're indeed the Sect Master of the Sky Arcana Sect. It seems that you're right. Forget it. If you're willing to abide by the laws of the Great Tang Empire, you can stay in the Immortal Lyceum. If you're not satisfied, you can leave. "
Xue Ningshuang pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Actually, the laws of the Great Tang Empire are quite good. They have a very good deterrent effect on those evil people. As long as your Great Tang Empire doesn't make things difficult for the Sky Arcana Sect, we're naturally willing to stay. "
After she finished speaking.
She looked at Old Sycamore and asked respectfully, "May I ask who you are, Senior?"
Old Sycamore said lightly, "You don't need to know who I am. You just need to act according to the laws of the Great Tang Empire. You can leave now. "
"Yes!"
Xue Ningshuang smiled bitterly inwardly. She cupped her fists and left with the two disciples.
Whoosh …
The teahouse waiter shot a jade slip at Old Sycamore, and his figure immediately disappeared into thin air. A moment later, Old Sycamore looked at the teahouse and slightly furrowed his brows. This was because he discovered that the waiter was nowhere to be seen.
"Interesting."
Old Sycamore instantly released his spiritual sense and covered a radius of five thousand kilometers in the blink of an eye. However, the smile on his face froze when he saw that the member of the Great Tang Empire's Shadow Division, who hadn't even reached the Immortal Realm, had disappeared without a trace in just a short period of time.
"What's going on?"
"It's impossible for him to leave so quickly."
"Could there be a concealment array in Skyrealm City? A concealment array that even I can't detect? No, it doesn't seem like a concealment array. It should be … a teleportation array? "
Old Sycamore was startled and immediately became vigilant.
A few days later.
When Old Sycamore arrived at the deserted island in the Misty Spring Ocean according to the location recorded in the jade slip given to him by the teahouse waiter, he saw Tan Xiu and Gu Yan 'er sitting cross-legged in front of a tea table, quietly sipping tea.
"It's been a long time, Old Sycamore. You're still as elegant as ever!"
Tan Xiu slowly raised his head and smiled at Old Sycamore.
Old Sycamore looked at Tan Xiu with a complicated expression and said in a deep voice, "I need an explanation."
Tan Xiu lightly patted the table, and a cup of fragrant tea flew up and floated in front of Old Sycamore. Tan Xiu smiled and said, "This cup of tea is to thank you for helping the Great Tang Empire's soldiers in Skyrealm City. Please have some tea. "
Old Sycamore was silent for a moment, but he still picked up the cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. Then, he said, "Can you tell me now?"
The smile on Tan Xiu's face gradually faded, and he said with a bitter smile, "Is an explanation really that important? He's already dead, and you have your own life to live. Why are you still pestering him? "
