Xuantian City was to the west of Divine Sky City. If one continued west, they would be out of the eastern region of the Barren State and into the Zhongzhou City.
Divine Sky City was the only major city in the eastern region of the Barren State. Thus, the Top Three Schools were located there. Many top clans were also in the most prosperous area.
But the eastern region of the Barren State was huge. It didn't mean that there weren't any powerful forces in other places.
In Xuantian City and the surrounding area, the Zhaixing House was definitely the supreme holy land. The Zhaixing House had even set up a city manager in Xuantian City to govern the city and set the rules. They were a true overlord. Although the competition here was not as intense as in Divine Sky City, the Zhaixing House's influence in this area was unparalleled.
In the sky above Xuantian City, a group of people flew in the clouds, heading in the direction of Xuantian City. It was Ye Futian's group, escorted by the Starry School's cultivators. Apart from them, the West Mountain Dragon Clan and Gu Clan also had cultivators. Long Ling 'er was here too. She'd been the one who'd insisted on coming with Ye Futian to see the world, so Madame Long had let her go.
Gu Yunxi from the Gu Clan also came. She was a disciple of Divine Sky City and also represented the Gu Clan.
The Jin Clan would come too, but they didn't travel with them.
"We're almost there," Gu Yunxi said softly.
"Yes," Ye Futian nodded. "Yunxi, how do I get the Polearm of Zhaixing House?"
As he and Gu Yunxi got closer, she'd let him call her by her name instead of Miss Gu.
"This is the mission the college chief gave you. How would I know?" Gu Yunxi smiled. The college chief was too cruel. He wanted Ye Futian to go to Zhaixing House to get the Polearm?
The chief of Zhaixing House treated the Polearm like a treasure and liked to show it off. How could he let Ye Futian take it?
"Sigh …" Ye Futian felt a headache coming on. He'd learned some things on the way here. It turned out that Zhaixing House and the Top Three Schools were related.
Before the Top Three Schools split up, the saint had several disciples, each of whom had inherited a power. When the saint died, his disciples had conflicts and gradually split up, creating the Top Three Schools.
The ancestor of the chief of Zhaixing House was also a disciple of the saint. Back then, he and the senior brother who'd founded the Starry School had different opinions and parted ways.
The founder of the Starry School had obtained the Starry Treasure Book, while the ancestor of the Zhaixing House had inherited the Polearm of Divine Destruction. Many years later, the Top Three Schools had become the sacred grounds of the Divine Sky City, standing at the peak. However, the Zhaixing House had never been convinced. Their ancestor had always believed that they were the true Divine Path.
Until now, the descendants of the Zhaixing House had never entered the Starry School to cultivate. Instead, they would rather go to the Zhongzhou City region to study and cultivate.
Under such circumstances, Chief Chen had actually asked him to take the treasure of the Zhaixing House. Ye Futian was starting to suspect Chief Chen's motives.
As they continued forward, a vast ancient city appeared beneath the clouds.
The sky. a city. It was Master Yun, who had gone to the Evil Dragon Zone previously. When the Son traveled, many top-notch Noble Plane figures accompanied him to protect him, and Master Yun was one of them.
Previously, the Starry School had even asked their upper Noble Plane disciples if they were willing to follow the Son and protect the Divine Path, but no one had responded.
Although Ye Futian had displayed unparalleled talent that day, as top-notch nobles, they naturally had their own pride. How could they be willing to protect the Son? Wouldn't that make them Ye Futian's followers? Therefore, no one was willing to do so.
"Let's go down." Yang Xing, who was behind Long Ling'er, spoke. After that, the demonic dragon swooped down towards the Xuantian City. Their arrival on the dragon attracted the attention of many.
However, the crowd was not too surprised. The Zhaixing House Chief was going to hold a birthday banquet, and experts from all over the world would attend. This was an annual rule, so it was not surprising at all.
After the group arrived at Xuantian City, they booked an inn in the city to stay.
Soon, someone received the news and came to visit. It was someone from the City Lord Mansion of Xuantian City.
Outside the inn, many people discussed and guessed who the newcomers were. Coming on a dragon was quite a big scene. Moreover, the young master and daughter of the City Lord Mansion came to visit as soon as they heard the news.
At the moment, Ye Futian saw the visitors in the banquet hall of the inn. The ones at the front were a young man and woman with extraordinary looks.
"Everyone, you've come all the way from the Divine Sky City. Why are you staying in an inn? Why don't you rest at my City Lord Mansion?" The young man said with a smile, cupping his hands. He looked at Ye Futian, who was sitting in the center of the banquet hall, guessing his identity.
In the past, there had never been such a young person representing the Starry School. He had to be at least in the Noble Plane.
Was the Starry School paying less and less attention to the Zhaixing House now? They were just going through the motions.
Of course, he did not dare to say anything. Even if the Starry School did not come, no one dared to say anything. The Top Three Schools of the Divine Sky City in the eastern region of the Barren State were publicly recognized as a holy land.
"This is the Son of the Starry School," Master Yun said coldly at the side. The young man's attitude was too casual.
The young man was stunned, then smiled and said, "So it's the Son. Apologies for not going out to meet you. I am Shi Yanfeng, and this is my sister, Shi Qinglan."
Shi Qinglan also looked at Ye Futian with a strange light in her eyes. It seemed that the Starry School had never conferred the title of the Son before.
The coronation of the Son of the Divine Sky City had shaken the entire city. However, Xuantian City was far away from the Divine Sky City and the City Lord Mansion would not pay attention to the news in Xuantian City. Therefore, they did not know what had happened there.
However, to be conferred the title of the Son by the Starry School, this young man must be very talented.
"If it's just for this, please leave. We will not disturb the Starry School," Ye Futian said indifferently. His tone was rather cold. The young man's tone was not very sincere, and his eyes were flickering. It seemed more like he had come perfunctorily. Ye Futian did not have time for such meaningless things.
Shi Yanfeng and Shi Qinglan were both stunned. They did not expect the Son to not even bother to exchange pleasantries with them and ask them to leave directly. How arrogant. No wonder he was from the Starry School.
"In that case, I will take my leave. If the Son has any instructions, please send someone to the City Lord Mansion to find me." Shi Yanfeng pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and left, as if he could not be bothered to feign civility.
After they left, Master Yun's expression was rather cold. He said, "How dare someone from the City Lord Mansion, a subordinate of the Zhaixing House, show such an attitude. They are really looking down on the Top Three Schools."
"Is it because of the Zhaixing House's influence?" Ye Futian asked. He remembered that back in Yunyue City, the Wang Clan had been very respectful to the disciples of the Top Three Schools. However, perhaps it was because Yunyue City was too weak, and Xuantian City itself had a top clan, the Zhaixing House, so their standards were higher.
"Yes." Master Yun nodded. "If not for the Zhaixing House backing them, they would not dare to show such an attitude."
He stood up and left. At the same time, he said, "Master Yun, I won't bother with such things in the future. You can help me deal with them."
"Alright." Master Yun nodded.
After Shi Yanfeng and Shi Qinglan walked out of the inn, they saw that Shi Yanfeng had a cold smile on his face.
"I don't think I've heard of the Top Three Schools having a Son in the past. He must have been conferred this year, right?" Shi Qinglan asked.
"Probably. The Son of the Starry School is very arrogant." Shi Yanfeng smiled. "He didn't even bother to say anything and sent us away."
"He's a disciple of the Top Three Schools. Since he was conferred the Son, he must be very talented," Shi Qinglan guessed.
"Such a young Son. What is the Starry School thinking? Can they really convince the public?" Shi Yanfeng raised an eyebrow. "As for his talent, that's for sure."
Ye Futian naturally did not doubt the judgment of the Top Three Schools. Those high and mighty figures were not idiots.
"But so what? We have our own beliefs and totems." Shi Yanfeng's expression was solemn as he looked at a tall mountain in the distance. Their belief was the Zhaixing House.
Now, the younger generation of Xuantian City also had their own totems, the two unparalleled geniuses of the Zhaixing House.
One of them had already entered the Holy Zhi Palace, the most powerful cultivation holy land in Zhongzhou City. What was the Top Three Schools to them?
The Holy Zhi Palace was the holy land of the entire Barren State.
"The other forces have also arrived. We'll go visit them first. I wonder if the Blazing Sun School and the Bright Moon School have been conferred the Son." Shi Qinglan did not think too much about it. Just as her brother had said, they had their own beliefs and totems.
The next morning, many strong cultivators in Xuantian City gathered in one direction.
At the border of Xuantian City, there was a mountain range. Raising one's head, one could see palaces erected all over the mountain range, stretching endlessly.
This was the extremely famous Zhaixing House.
There were strong cultivators guarding everywhere at the foot of the mountain. There was only one entrance with a staircase leading up to the mountain. At the moment, strong cultivators from all over had arrived at the foot of the stairs.
"Those are the people from the Blazing Sun School."
"That's the Bright Moon School."
"The Starry School is here too," someone said, looking in the direction of Ye Futian's group.
The Top Three Schools naturally attracted the most attention.
"Those are the people from the Tianwu Palace." Someone looked in another direction. There was a group of people with strong auras.
"The people from the Crimson Phoenix Clan are here too." In another direction, there were many beautiful women wearing flame-red clothes. They were the disciples of the Crimson Phoenix Clan.
"The people from Xuanyuan Mountain and the Qinglei Pavilion are all here." The crowd discussed. Although these forces were not as eye-catching as the Top Three Schools, they were still top forces within the territory of the Zhaixing House and had Sage Plane cultivators. Other than them, many other forces of various sizes had come to visit.
At the moment, even the people from these forces were looking at the disciples of the Top Three Schools. Some looked respectful, while others looked competitive, as if they were eager to try.
However, Ye Futian did not care about these people at all. He only looked up at the mountain and the Zhaixing House on it, thinking about the problem.
