The black ship wasn't very big. From the outside, it wasn't very luxurious either. It could only be considered exquisite.
There was a cabin on the ship that wasn't very tall. The person who had spoken was standing outside the cabin, looking over indifferently.
This person had a cold expression and looked to be about 30 years old. He wore a dark robe with a green jade pendant hanging from his waist. He looked like an elegant young master.
There were two people behind him. Their hands were hanging by their sides. As they looked around, a cold light flashed in their eyes.
An Ye's expression turned cold. He slowly turned around and looked at that person for a while. Then, he cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Fourth Holy Son!"
That person ignored An Ye. He only looked at Yang Xuan and said coldly, "You're Yang Xuan?"
Yang Xuan squinted his eyes and said slowly, "That's right!"
At that moment, someone came to report, "Lord Holy Son, everything is ready. Should we set off?"
The Fourth Holy Son nodded and said, "Let's set off!"
After that person left, the ship started to move and sailed towards the ocean.
At this moment, the waves were very big, and the ship was shaking non-stop. It was very bumpy, but they were all people with high cultivation, and they stood firmly on the deck.
The Fourth Holy Son looked at Yang Xuan and said with a cold smile, "I heard that you killed that trash Yan Feixu and many people from the Holy Mountain?"
An Ye's expression turned ugly. He said coldly, "Your Highness, Fourth Holy Son, Bai Qi is now returning to the sect to meet the Saints and be conferred the title of the Second Holy Son. You should be more polite."
"Hahaha!" The Fourth Holy Son laughed wildly and said sinisterly, "Who does he think he is? How can he be worthy of being the Second Holy Son?"
Anger flashed across An Ye's face. He said in a low voice, "Your Highness, watch your words. Bai Qi's rank is decided by the Saints. It's not up to you to point fingers."
The Fourth Holy Son seemed to have some misgivings. When he heard that, he only sneered at Yang Xuan. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
After taking a few glances at Yang Xuan, he snorted coldly and turned to enter the cabin.
An Ye looked at Yang Xuan and saw that there was no trace of anger on his face. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Brother Bai, don't mind him. Yan Fei Xu is one of his people. Since you killed him, he will naturally target you."
Yang Xuan laughed involuntarily and shook his head, "I don't care, but looking at him, he doesn't seem to intend to let me go."
A trace of haze appeared on An Ye's face. Looking at Yang Xuan's smiling face, An Ye felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in his heart.
Thinking back to Yang Xuan's past behavior, he could only secretly pray that nothing bad would happen.
Dark Night entered the cabin with Yang Xuan and arranged for him and Monkey to stay in a luxurious room before leaving.
Yang Xuan looked at Monkey, who was scratching his ears and fidgeting uneasily, and could not help but laugh. "Is this your first time on a boat?"
Monkey did not answer, but looking at his appearance, it was indeed his first time. Otherwise, he would not have revealed such an expression.
Yang Xuan thought for a moment, then took out a small jar of Ten Thousand Souls Wine from his storage ring and threw it to Monkey.
When Monkey received the wine, the uneasiness on his face immediately disappeared. He happily ran to the side to drink.
The boat sailed on the sea for about three days. During this time, An Ye also came a few times to drink and chat with Yang Xuan. It was quite a happy time.
The Four Holy Sons did not come to provoke Yang Xuan again. However, Yang Xuan knew that this matter would not end so easily.
As the boat sailed, Yang Xuan also used his Divine Sense to investigate the surrounding area. There seemed to be a strange power in the large area of the sea, causing his Divine Sense to be unable to completely investigate the surrounding environment.
On this day, Yang Xuan's heart suddenly moved.
The boat docked.
An Ye opened the cabin door and walked in. "Brother Bai, we're here!"
This dock was built under a cliff. After alighting from the boat, Yang Xuan followed An Ye and climbed up the stairs on the cliff.
Not long after, they arrived at a relatively high place.
Yang Xuan was a little stunned.
He had imagined the appearance of the Sacred Mountain countless times in his heart, but when he saw it for himself, he realized that he had still underestimated it.
In front of him was an incomparably huge land. Yang Xuan looked at it and actually could not see the edge.
As far as the eye could see, there was a huge plain with no end in sight. And on the plain, there were countless strangely shaped buildings neatly built. It was boundless.
Further away, there was an incomparably huge mountain range, standing in the middle of all the buildings.
On the mountain range, there were countless buildings, shining brightly under the sunlight. And among them, there was a white mountain peak that pierced through the clouds. It was impossible to see its appearance clearly, and it looked incomparably sacred.
What kind of island was this? What kind of sect was this? This was simply a country, an incomparably huge country.
At this moment, Yang Xuan finally had a direct understanding of the colossal Sacred Mountain in his heart.
Seeing Yang Xuan sizing it up, An Ye proudly smiled and said, "Brother Bai, this is the true appearance of my Sacred Mountain. How is it? It's spectacular, right?"
Yang Xuan nodded.
He had to admit that the true appearance of the Sacred Mountain was indeed beyond his expectations. It even surprised him.
An Ye proudly said, "Brother Bai, my Sacred Mountain is not a sect in the secular sense, nor is it a martial arts sect. The Sacred Mountain is a country. Do you know what the people here call it?"
"What?" Yang Xuan asked.
"Holy Empire. You and I are both people of the Holy Empire, and the true Sacred Mountain refers to the white mountain peak in the center of the Holy Empire. That is the true Sacred Mountain, the core of the Holy Empire."
Yang Xuan looked at the white mountain peak and felt a little shocked!
However, he had a question in his heart. Since the Sacred Mountain was so powerful, why were there not many people of the Sacred Mountain in the outside world?
He asked An Ye this question.
An Ye replied, "Most of the people who are active in the outside world are the secular forces of the Sacred Mountain, or the low-level Holy Disciples. As for the majority of the Sacred Mountain's power, it is concentrated here. As for why, I am not very clear."
Since he did not explain clearly, Yang Xuan did not ask further.
Walking down the neat steps, Yang Xuan saw groups of soldiers lined up neatly. Their faces were cold, and their eyes were full of coldness, revealing bursts of murderous intent.
Someone came forward to interrogate, but after An Ye showed his token, he retreated.
At this time, two strangely shaped carriages came in front of them.
Yang Xuan's eyes revealed a strong sense of strangeness because the two carriages in front of them were not the traditional horse-drawn carriages or rickshaws. Instead, they had four wheels and looked like cars. Moreover, there were people driving in front.
No matter how Yang Xuan looked at this design, he felt that it was a convertible car, and an extended version at that.
The Fourth Holy Son who walked past them snorted coldly and ignored Yang Xuan. He boarded the car in front of them and drove away.
An Ye opened the door of the "car" behind and said, "Get in!"
Yang Xuan obeyed and boarded the 'car', bringing Monkey along with him.
Afterward, An Ye also boarded and sat across from Yang Xuan. She said with a smile, "This is called an origin car, a product of the Artifact Hall. It is driven by the power of large origin stones, and it moves forward with four wheels. I don't know the specific principles, but it is much more comfortable and faster than a horse-drawn carriage. Only the Sacred Mountain has it in the world."
Yang Xuan probed with his divine sense and saw the structure of the origin car at a glance.
