After Yi Tian intercepted Zhang Xuan in the wilderness, he managed to obtain some information from him. He didn't expect him to be a cultivator from the Shangqing Daoism branch. He had no choice but to leave the Spirit Realm and come to the Asura Realm.
The reason he was able to join the Barbarian Race cultivators was most likely because of his forte. Barbarian Race cultivators were mostly body cultivators, so Zhang Xuan's skills made up for their lack of forte.
When he left the Spirit Realm, he was already a late stage Deity Transformation cultivator. After a thousand years, he was only at the early stage Severed Soul Stage. This was most likely due to his own aptitude and lack of resources.
Seeing the nervous expression on the other party's face without any intention of loosening his grip on the totem, Yi Tian gently took out a jade tablet from his storage pouch and slowly handed it over, "Take a look at it first. Perhaps our conversation will be a little more relaxed and we won't need to be so tense anymore."
Zhang Xuan had a suspicious expression and used his divine sense to scan the jade token a few times. He had an incredulous expression as he said, "You're actually a disciple of the Taiqing Pavilion, but how can you cultivate the Feiyu Kenshū Sect's secret technique to such an extent? Could it be that you're in the same situation as me?"
After he finished speaking, he also took out a jade token from his storage ring and slowly handed it over. After Yi Tian scanned it with his divine sense, he verified the information inside with Zhang Xuan's identity. After making sure that the comparison was correct, the two of them put away their respective identity jade tablets and turned to look at each other with a relaxed expression on their faces.
After three breaths, Yi Tian said, "Junior Martial Brother Zhang has been working hard in the Barbarian Race these years. I'm afraid the lack of resources there will have a direct impact on your cultivation."
"Indeed. The Barbarian Race cultivators are naturally on guard against outsiders like me. If it wasn't for the fact that I still have value, why would they let me stay in Gu Yan City?" Zhang Xuan sighed as he put away the spirit tool in his hand. After understanding Yi Tian's situation, he naturally knew that they were on the same path. Moreover, they definitely had something to discuss, so there was no need for them to meet on the battlefield.
"I do have some properties in the Asura Imperial Capital that are suitable for you. If Junior Brother Zhang is willing, you can follow me to the Imperial Capital. The cultivation resources there are abundant, and with my recommendation, you naturally won't have to worry about running around," Yi Tian said in an orderly manner.
"It seems Senior Martial Brother Yi also has some connections in the Asura Imperial Capital. I thought you were a consecrator of the Tiger Army," Zhang Xuan replied.
"Cai Chaoqiong of the Brave Tiger Army only asked me to help because of Imperial Physician Hao Ren. My connections are all in the Imperial Capital. I'm familiar with Duan Xiaolou, the Crown Prince of the Xun King, and Qiao Yongjun, the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards," Yi Tian explained.
Zhang Xuan revealed a surprised expression when he heard this. He probably knew the identities of these three people. He frowned slightly before asking, "I know that the three factions in the Asura Imperial Capital are like fire and water fighting for power. Could it be that Senior Martial Brother Yi is on good terms with all three of them? Surviving in the cracks is like walking on thin ice. If you're not careful, you'll be dealt with by the other two factions."
"Junior Martial Brother Zhang is right, but I'm still part of Yun Lin's faction on the surface. I have a good relationship with Duan Xiaolou and Qiao Yong Jun in private, and I'm well taken care of in the Imperial Capital. If Junior Martial Brother can come with me to the Imperial Capital, I can recommend you to whichever faction you want to join. It's better than being a rogue cultivator outside the Asura Imperial Capital, "Yi Tian said.
Zhang Xuan revealed a hesitant expression. If he left like this, he would have to find another faction to rely on. Only then would he be able to use his strength and obtain enough cultivation resources. Compared to the situation in the Asura Empire where he had someone to support him, the difference was like heaven and earth. However, looking at Yi Tian's appearance, even if he agreed, it would be a huge favor. If there was anything he needed after this, he would definitely do his best.
Both sides had their pros and cons. It was difficult to immediately make a choice. After thinking for a while, Zhang Xuan asked, "Does Senior Martial Brother Yi have your own faction? I don't want to get too close to any of the three factions. If possible, I want to rely on your residence. That way, I'll have sufficient freedom and won't be entangled with the three factions."
So he was still wary of the various factions in the Asura Imperial Capital. Yi Tian thought for a moment and took out a jade slip. He wrote some things on it and handed it over gently, "This is my recommendation letter for you. Come back to the Imperial Capital with me first, and then take this recommendation letter to Imperial Censor Mei Baiji's residence to be a consecrator."
Zhang Xuan took the recommendation letter and opened it. He quickly scanned through it, and a trace of joy flashed across his face. "That's great. Being able to rely on the Asura Imperial Capital is naturally the best plan. However, I wonder what this imperial censor's cultivation base and stance is. Will he be able to accept me? "
"Mei Baiji's cultivation base is at the Mid Deity Transformation Stage. He can be considered one of the more neutral factions in the Asura Imperial Capital. He is only loyal to the empress, and he keeps his distance from the other three factions. He can be considered a good choice, "Yi Tian explained.
"Since Senior Martial Brother Yi has already told me everything, then I'll accept. I owe Senior Martial Brother a huge favor. If there's anything you need in the future, I'll definitely do my best to help you," Zhang Xuan said with a smile.
The two of them then changed directions and flew toward Solitary Wild Goose City. Along the way, Yi Tian explained the current situation in the Imperial Capital in detail. He also told Zhang Xuan how to avoid getting too entangled with the three factions in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Less than two hours later, the two of them returned to Solitary Wild Goose City. At this moment, the siege had already ended. There were still several places in the city that had yet to be extinguished. However, the resistance forces were nowhere to be seen. Yi Tian scanned the streets with his divine sense and found that there were groups of Tiger Army soldiers coming and going to maintain order.
As for the commander, Cai Chaoqiong, she had already entered the City Lord's Manor. This could be considered to be a success. Once he reported this to the imperial court, his noble title would be set in stone.
Yi Tian brought Zhang Xuan and Zhang Xuan to the City Lord's Manor before slowly descending. Many nearby cultivators had already noticed them and hastily came up to greet them. However, when they saw that Zhang Xuan was also present, they all revealed expressions of shock. Soon after, the two of them walked into the City Lord's Manor under everyone's gazes.
Cai Chaoqiong, who was sitting inside, had probably noticed the two of them long ago. After seeing them, she hastily stood up from her position in the middle of the City Lord's Manor and hurried over to greet Yi Tian.
After scanning Zhang Xuan with his divine sense, he saw that Zhang Xuan's expression was cold. However, since he was able to come along, it was obvious that Yi Tian's methods were outstanding. Zhang Xuan was also a smart person. He immediately blocked everyone in the hall and invited Yi Tian and Zhang Xuan to take a seat before privately chatting with them.
This time, he had received many benefits, so there was no reason for him to refuse Yi Tian's request. After the three of them discussed, Cai Chaoqiong even took out a document and gave Zhang Xuan the status of a Guardian of the Tiger Army. This could be considered as Li Baoxiao giving Yi Tian enough face.
