In the room, everyone was seated. The one sitting at the head of the table was naturally Yuan. Beside Yuan sat a man that Lu An had never seen before. Lu An could also sense that this person was not from Sengoku.
Sengoku's rules were very strict. Outsiders were not allowed to enter. Otherwise, Lu An would not have caused so much trouble when he arrived at Sengoku. Since this person was able to come here and sit side by side with Yuan, it was obvious that his status was not low.
"By the way, I haven't introduced him to you yet." Yuan smiled at the man and said, "He is the only disciple of my beloved wife. His name is Lu An."
As he spoke, Yuan looked at Lu An and said, "Why aren't you bowing?"
Lu An heard this for a while, then cupped his hands and said politely to the man, "Junior Lu An pays his respects to senior."
After hearing Lu An's words, the man looked at Lu An with interest. However, it was only a simple glance. However, this glance immediately made Lu An feel like he was sitting on pins and needles!
Strong!
Terrifyingly strong!
"I didn't expect that the Immortal Empress would accept a Celestial Master as her disciple." The man spoke. His voice was clear and slightly dull as he said, "However, this kid is already at the beginning of Level Four at such a young age. Even where we come from, he's not bad."
After hearing the man's words, Jun smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for the compliment. If he can be compared to the people from your place, he's a good seedling."
Lu An listened to the conversation between the two and his eyes narrowed. This person was very strong. It was not surprising that he could tell his strength at a glance. However, this person said that his strength was only considered good in his place. In other words, where this person came from, there were many experts even among the young people?
Thinking of this, Lu An took a light breath. Although he did not belittle himself, he was not arrogant either. He understood that there was always someone better than him. He really wanted to see that place.
At this moment, Yao suddenly stood up from the side and said to her parents, "Father, mother, you guys chat. I'll go out with Lu An."
Hearing this, Yuan and Jun looked at their daughter. They knew that their daughter had feelings for Lu An, so they did not stop her. Jun nodded and said, "Go."
"Thank you, mother!" Yao happily said, and then brought Lu An out of the house.
Soon, the two of them were far away from the house, walking in the beautiful scenery of Sengoku. Under the wind, flower, snow, and moon, Yao's appearance appeared even more beautiful. The so-called countenance of a flower and the moon was nothing more than this.
"And here I thought that you wouldn't come looking for me." Yao suddenly turned around. Her white robes were swept away, and her charming face was raised. She looked at Lu An and softly said.
Looking at this beautiful face, Lu An's heart shook. He smiled and said, "I forgot. If I hadn't forgotten, I would have come long ago."
"You can even forget about me. It seems like you don't care about me." Yao placed her hands behind her back. Her beautiful figure stood tall and straight as she said, "I've been thinking about you every day."
Hearing this, Lu An smiled and said, "It's my fault. I know that I was wrong."
"If you know that you're wrong, then come more often." Yao looked seriously at Lu An and softly said, "You have to come looking for me every time, and I'm the one waiting every time. I want to know where you live."
Hearing this, Lu An was startled. His expression was a little awkward, but he still said, "Purple Lake City. It's a very far place."
"Purple Lake City?" After hearing this name, Yao was clearly startled. She said, "I really want to know about this city. Half a year ago, I went to a country around Purple Lake City with my brother for a mission. I saw the name Purple Lake City on a map."
As she spoke, Yao raised her head and looked into Lu An's eyes. She said, "Is it surrounded by mountains, and there's a lake called Purple Lake?"
Lu An was startled. He nodded and said, "That's right."
"I didn't expect you to live in Purple Lake City. Coincidentally, there's a Celestial Realm Gate near Purple Lake City. I'll be able to find you in the future!" Yao suddenly smiled happily. Under her smile, even the moonlight seemed to be brighter.
However, Lu An shook his head slightly and said with a bitter smile, "Although my home is in Purple Lake City, I don't live there. Right now, it's a time of war. The surrounding countries are all at war. I've already left Purple Lake City to join the army. "
"War?" Yao was slightly startled. She said, "It was still fine half a year ago. Why is there a war now?"
"It should have started five months ago." Lu An explained, "That's why you won't be able to find me there. When the war is over, or when I'm free during the war, I'll come to Sengoku to find you."
"Alright." Yao was a little sad after hearing this. She said, "Then, you're here to accompany me?"
"Yes." Lu An nodded.
"How long?" Yao was pleasantly surprised and asked.
"Four days." Lu An said, "I'll be going back to join the war in four days."
Hearing Lu An's words, the happiness that had just risen in Yao's heart turned into sadness. However, there were still four days. She smiled and said to Lu An, "That's a promise. You'll accompany me for four days. You're not allowed to lock yourself up to cultivate and ignore me."
"Alright." Lu An said with a smile. Then, he thought of something and asked, "Who's the man who came back with you?"
"Him!" Yao was still immersed in the joy of Lu An accompanying her. She said, "He's a friend of my father's and the Sovereign of a sect. The two of them have a good relationship. They attended a banquet together. After the banquet, they came here to catch up. "
Sect?
Lu An frowned slightly. When they were still at the Starfire Academy, Teacher Han Ying had taught them a lesson. There were many hidden sects and families in the Eight Ancient Continents. The most famous ones were the Seven Sects and Thirty-six Gates. The so-called Seven Sects were the seven families that had powerful Fate Wheels. Thirty-six Gates were the thirty-six sects.
When she was talking about this, Teacher Han Ying mentioned a family that had a pagoda. It was the Thousand Pagoda Sect, one of the Seven Sects. It was said that thousands of years ago, the pagoda suppressed a whole city, which shocked Lu An.
Just as Lu An was thinking about this, Yao suddenly said, "It's the Liang Family of the Zenith. Have you heard of the Sky Suppressing Pagoda?"
Sky Suppressing Pagoda?
Lu An was stunned and quickly asked, "Sky Suppressing Pagoda? Is it the Thousand Pagoda Sect of the Seven Sects and Thirty-six Gates?"
"That's right! It seems that you know a lot! " Yao said with a smile, "The Thousand Pagoda Sect is the Liang Family, also known as the Liang Family of the Zenith. He is the current Family Head of the Liang Family."
Lu An sucked in a breath of cold air when he heard that!
The Liang Family of the Zenith. This was the first time he had heard of such a big family. He never thought that he would be able to see the Family Head of the Liang Family of the Liang Family in person!
At this moment, Lu An suddenly thought of something. He still remembered clearly that when Teacher Han Ying was talking about this family, Fu Yu, who was sitting beside him, had said something.
"It's just a broken pagoda. What's there to brag about?"
If Fu Yu could ignore the Seven Sects and Thirty-six Gates, then how strong was the family that Fu Yu was in? Judging from the relationship between the man and Yuan, the Liang Family of the Zenith, or the Thousand Pagoda Sect, should be about the same strength as Sengoku. Where was the place that was stronger than Sengoku?
Lu An took a deep breath. Although he really wanted to ask Yao about it, he still held back in the end. Actually, knowing about Sengoku and the Liang Family of the Zenith was far beyond what he should know. With his strength, he was not qualified to know so many things. He did not want to give himself too much trouble and pressure.
"However, the Seven Sects and Thirty-six Gates no longer exist." Yao suddenly opened her mouth, her voice was as pleasant as a wind chime.
Lu An was stunned. He raised his head and asked, "Why?"
"Because there will be conflicts between the sects, just like the wars between countries." Yao said softly, "The Seven Sects and Thirty-six Gates is a saying from thousands of years ago. The old forces disappear and new forces appear. The current situation is twenty-one sects."
Twenty-one sects?
Lu An listened to Yao's words seriously. Although it was still early for him to know about this, since he already knew, he would still remember it seriously.
"Twenty-one sects, including fifteen sects and sixteen gates. Everyone's strength is similar. Even the strongest and the weakest sects are not too different. Now that the twenty-one sects are balancing each other, there has been no large-scale conflict for nearly a hundred years. "
Lu An nodded slightly and said, "I see."
"However, it's not that simple." Yao frowned, lowered her head and said, "I heard from my father that many of the twenty-one sects have started to become restless recently."
