The Nine Prefectures Battle.
The Sky Martial Continent was divided into nine prefectures: Earth Prefecture, Sun Prefecture, Moon Prefecture, Setting Sun Prefecture, Cloud Prefecture, Scarlet Prefecture, Illusion Prefecture, and Black Forest Prefecture.
Every ten years, the nine prefectures would hold a battle.
The meaning of the Nine Prefectures Battle was very simple. It was a battle between the people on the rankings of the prefectures.
In the nine prefectures, the Sky Prefecture was ranked first, but in every battle, they were ranked last. Because of this, the six great sects attached great importance to the Nine Prefectures Battle.
The nine prefectures had a total of nine rankings, and each ranking had a hundred people. With the nine rankings added together, there were over a thousand people.
Over a thousand people were competing for the top ten spots. Not only would they receive generous rewards, but they would also become famous throughout the continent.
It could be said that the Nine Prefectures Battle gathered all the super geniuses of the Sky Martial Continent.
Deeply sighing, Dugu Bai and Xia Jun clearly knew that the Nine Prefectures Battle was very important to the six great sects. If it was delayed because of the sects, it would attract unnecessary trouble.
"I know that you are unwilling, but I hope that you can understand what is more important."
After Xia Fang left, Dugu Bai and Xia Jun looked at each other and saw a trace of determination in each other's eyes. Even if they couldn't take revenge for now, they had to.
Ghost King Sect.
Long Ao didn't come out, and Ghost King Ao Tian felt a little helpless. After all, the Sovereign Golden Core had followed Long Ao into the Crying Ghost Ridge. In other words, he would never be able to obtain the Sovereign Golden Core.
Without obtaining the Sovereign Golden Core, Ao Tian didn't even dare to mention it to Aoxue. He knew his daughter's character too well. If Aoxue knew that Long Ao was dead, Aoxue would definitely follow him.
Beside the lotus pond.
Sitting quietly and looking at the lotus pond, Aoxue didn't have any expression on her face.
"Aoxue."
Hearing the voice behind her, Aoxue's body trembled. She couldn't help but cry. She suddenly turned around and looked at the youth who had suddenly appeared. She couldn't hold it in any longer and threw herself at him.
The person who had just appeared was Long Ao.
Long Ao hugged Aoxue tightly. Of course, he knew Aoxue's pain. The two of them didn't say much. Everything was in silence.
"Long Ao, let go of Aoxue."
Seeing that Long Ao was still alive, Ao Tian was very surprised. He never thought that Long Ao, who had entered the forbidden area of the Crying Ghost Ridge, would be able to leave the forbidden area so smoothly.
"Father."
"Ghost King, this is the Sovereign Golden Pill. I have completed all three of your tests. Can I take Aoxue away now?"
Sovereign Golden Core.
Holding back the surprise in his heart, Ao Tian took the Sovereign Golden Core from Long Ao. He couldn't wait to go into seclusion to cultivate, but he knew that there were many things that he needed to do. He said, "I have passed the three tests. I won't ask about you and Aoxue. As for the Golden-sun Sect, I will talk to them myself. Long Ao, I am relieved to hand my daughter over to you."
"Aoxue, tell Long Ao what I told you before."
Looking at Ao Tian who was leaving, Long Ao did not have the slightest bit of resentment because Ao Tian was the Sect Leader of the Ghost King Sect. Before he did anything, he had to first consider the interests of the Ghost King Sect, although he despised Ao Tian in his heart.
Holding Long Ao's hand and sitting down, Aoxue and Long Ao talked about their love. After a long time, Aoxue suddenly said, "Long Ao, Father told me that the Battle of the Nine States will begin in a month. As the third on the Battle of the Nine States, you must represent Tianzhou."
The Battle of the Nine States?
Aoxue told Long Ao everything about the Battle of the Nine States. After listening to her, Long Ao had a rough understanding of the Battle of the Nine States. It seemed that he couldn't refuse.
In truth, Long Ao was looking forward to the Battle of the Nine States. That was because the Martial Heaven Continent was divided into nine states. Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult for him to come into contact with the young cultivators of the other eight states. The Battle of the Nine States was a rare opportunity.
"Long Ao, will you participate in the Battle of the Nine States?"
Long Ao smiled and asked, "Do you want me to participate?"
"I don't. The Battle of the Nine States is very dangerous. If you aren't careful, you can lose your life. But I know that as a man, I have to do what a man should do. I just want you to promise me one thing. No matter what, you have to protect yourself. You have to remember that I will always be waiting for you."
Hearing Aoxue's words, Long Ao was very moved.
"Long Ao, I want to ask you one thing. I hope you can promise me."
"Say it. As long as it's something I can do, I will definitely do it for you. Whether it's climbing a mountain of blades or diving into a sea of flames."
"Although father was wrong, no matter what, he is still my father. So I want to continue staying in the Ghost King Sect. I will leave on the day you marry me."
So it was about this.
Although he didn't want Aoxue to continue staying in the Ghost King Sect, Long Ao put himself in her shoes. If he were to encounter such a situation, what would he do? So Long Ao didn't hesitate and nodded, "Of course. When I am strong enough, I will definitely come and marry you."
Aoxue smiled. Long Ao also smiled.
After staying in the Ghost King Sect for a day and a night, Long Ao left the Ghost King Sect early in the morning.
Long Ao's meaning was very simple. If he wanted to protect his lover and family, he couldn't stop. Because his current strength was far from enough. Not to mention the Nihility Realm, even the Transformation Realm had not reached the peak.
There was still a month before the Nine States Ranking. Long Ao prepared to return to his family first.
He believed that his family already knew that he caused a ruckus in the Ghost King Sect. Because of this, Long Ao knew very well that his parents must be worried to death about him.
Scarlet Fire Town.
The current Scarlet Fire Town was no longer the same as before. With the strong support of the Thunder Empire and the Thunder Sect, in just a few months, the Scarlet Fire Town had expanded by three times. Even Thundercloud City paled in comparison to the Scarlet Fire Town.
Scarlet Fire Town. Under normal circumstances, with the current size of the Scarlet Fire Town, it should be renamed Scarlet Fire City. However, the Long Family insisted on not changing it. As the local tyrant of the Scarlet Fire Town, the Long Family's will was the imperial edict. Who dared to go against it?
Long Ao, whether it was status or other aspects, far surpassed the Long Family. Because everyone knew that the reason the Long Family could rise so powerfully was because of one person. That was Long Ao, a heavenly genius, a legendary figure.
Long Ao was now a god-like existence in the Scarlet Fire Town. Many people worshipped him and even worshipped him like a god. Because of this, when Long Ao just stepped into the Scarlet Fire Town, everyone in the town knew that Long Ao had returned. They were completely stirred up.
