Both Almost Immortals died just like that, leaving everyone with complex expressions and numb from shock.
Everything that happened today was beyond their imagination.
“I finally understand now, it’s true that Taiyan Holy Land and Ziyang Holy Land said the Southern Territory possesses a power that can deter everything,” the Cihang Saint Lord murmured, her beautiful eyes filled with gravity as she bowed deeply to Mu Qianning:
“Cihang Holy Abode pays its respects to the Divine Maiden!”
“Previously deceived by Luofu Holy Land and the Divine Sword Sect, I nearly strayed onto the wrong path, please forgive my sins, Divine Maiden!”
The Western Desert Empty Brightness Sanctum Master also chanted a Buddhist mantra and said, “Only now do I realize that the true Great Sage of the Brahman Path resides in the Southern Territory!”
His hands joined in prayer, he reverently said, “I pay my respects to the Divine Maiden!”
Even the reticent Dugu Chen, at this moment, bowed slightly and said, “Thank you, Divine Maiden, for cutting down a great evil!”
In an instant, all the powers present began to speak!
“We pay our respects to the Divine Maiden!”
“We pay our respects to the Divine Maiden!”
They worshiped her fervently!
When they first arrived in the Southern Territory, everyone couldn’t understand why the formidable Taiyan Holy Land and Ziyang Holy Land would respect two young people who weren’t even Venerables so greatly.
They even doubted the power that both Holy Lands claimed to be able to deter everything!
Now they were completely submissive and had thoroughly understood!
Taiyan Holy Land? Ziyang Holy Land?
The true master of the Southern Territory wasn’t them at all!
It was the terrifying existence behind this young girl!
The items bestowed casually could eliminate True Immortals, and the incompetent disciples taken in casually became peers beyond compare in the blink of an eye… no one dared to imagine!
Upon seeing this, Mu Qianning was somewhat astonished and hurriedly said, “Your honors are too kind, there’s no need for this.”
“We are all cultivators from the Xuantian Realm, of the same origin. As long as everyone can live harmoniously, that will be enough.”
Listening to her words, a group of Saint Lords and Sect Masters, however, were all with solemn expressions: “We will certainly remember the Divine Maiden’s teachings!”
Now, they regarded Mu Qianning’s words as if they were divine decrees!
Not to be violated!
To offend this Divine Maiden was to offend the existence behind her…
Upon hearing this, Mu Qianning smiled happily.
As long as everyone could live in peace, she was reassured.
“This fight was not in vain.”
File Spirit also smiled and said, “Qian Ning, we should return to report to our senior.”
Mu Qianning nodded and looked towards Long Zixuan and Lu Rang.
Both of them had returned to the main platform and were smiling as they approached.
The many Sect Masters and the like were all immensely respectful, clearing a path for them!
They all understood that these two men must also be connected to that existence…
“Let’s go, it’s time for us to head back.”
Long Zixuan spoke.
Lu Rang laughed and said, “That was indeed a thrilling fight, haha… Come on, let’s go back.”
The group then turned to leave.
“Zi Xuan…”
At that moment, a tentative voice rang out.
Long Zixuan turned around.
He saw Long Xiaotian, the emperor of the Saint Dragon Dynasty, approaching with a trace of nervousness on his face, saying, “My son, I’m truly happy that you have grown to this stage… I have decided to make you the crown prince!” “Return with me to the dynasty, you are our dynasty’s pride!!”
He offered a firm promise!
Previously, even though he had such a son, he had never paid him any attention!
For him, the emperor of his generation, the birth of Long Zixuan was an insult!
With the Dragon Soul shattered, unable to cultivate.
Even because of this, he had demoted Long Zixuan’s mother, sending her to the cold palace, and took another favored woman of heaven as Empress!
Listening to LongXiaotian’s words, Empress Gu Shi’s face turned ugly!
This meant that her own sons could no longer inherit the throne…
Her heart ached and was filled with reluctance to the utmost degree, but at this moment, she did not dare show it.
Because the Long Zixuan of today had already become an extraordinary talent of ancient and modern times and had also gained the favor of some terrifying existence; his ascension could guarantee the Saint Dragon Dynasty’s brilliance for another epoch!
Long Zixuan heard the words and glanced at Long Xiaotian.
A complex emotion flashed through his eyes.
But it quickly turned cold.
“I once eagerly anticipated you saying this, when I was driven from the imperial palace, when they suppressed me, when I watched mother die in the cold palace and no one cared!”
‘Back then, how I wished you would take responsibility as a father, as a husband.”
“But sadly, you did not.”
Long Zixuan’s words were cold!
The hope in LongXiaotian’s eyes dimmed as his face turned ugly, and he said,
“No matter what, you are still my son!”
The Imperial Dynasty raised you, and now is the time for you to repay the Imperial Dynasty, to repay your father!”
Hearing this, Long Zixuan coldly replied:
“The Imperial Dynasty raised me? Sorry, but all I got from the Saint Dragon
Dynasty was mockery and ridicule.”
“Where there is a loving father, there is a filial son. Where the father is heartless, the son is not obliged.”
With a wave of his hand, he tore his robe.
From this moment, our father-son relationship is severed. You remain the Emperor, and I seek my own immortal destiny. We owe each other nothing!” His words were as cold as a knife, “And for those in the dynasty who owe my mother… one day, I will seek justice for each one of them!”
Having said that, he left without looking back!
The light of hope in Long Xiaotian’s eyes instantly faded, and he fell into an
abyss of endless regret…
Why…
Meanwhile, the Empress began to tremble.
It was over.
The current Long Zixuan had profound fortune, exceptional talent, and the favor of unprecedented great figures… Her past actions…
Fire Spirit and the other three had finally left.
In the arena, many powerful forces were still in shock.
“Brother Lingchao, Brother Yuanyang, you kept us in the dark so bitterly!”
Unable to restrain herself, the Cihang Saint Lord spoke up, her beautiful eyes filled with a hint of grievance.
“Right, if we had known of such a presence in the Southern Territory, why would we have clashed with Cao Yijian and the others…”
“No wonder others weren’t generous; it was our mistake in choosing sides.”
Many others spoke up as well, filled with regret.
“Actually, the Yuanyang Holy Lord and Saint Lord Ling Chao had already made it clear to us that there was a power in the Southern Territory that could deter all, but we simply did not truly believe.”
The Western Desert Empty Brightness Sanctum Master opened up, the old eyes filled with hope, saying, “Venerable Lords, could you possibly introduce us so that we may meet this senior?”
“Yes, we would like to meet him too!”
“Just a casual piece of advice from such a senior would be an enormous blessing for us!”
Many people were also making strong requests.
Now, the existence hidden behind the Southern Territory inspired reverence and curiosity in everyone.
That was an existence surpassing that of a True Immortal…
But the Yuanyang Holy Lord and Saint Lord Ling Chao just shook their heads and said, “We understand the feelings of everyone here, but that senior… even we are not qualified to meet him!”
Upon hearing this, the crowd’s expressions became even more complex.
May I ask the two Venerable Lords, there was a rumor previously circulated claiming that at the edge of the Cangli Mountain Range, there was an exceptional individual taking disciples… was this news released by you?”
At this moment, Dugu Chenlu suddenly spoke up!
Upon hearing him mention it, everyone was instantly shaken, their expressions tense as they recalled the rumor, eagerly awaiting the response from Ling Chao and Yuanyang!
Previously, all major forces had received this rumor, but no one paid any attention to it, and some even thought that it was a plot by the Taiyan Holy Land and the Ziyang Holy Land, aiming to ensnare the talents of various forces.
But now, everyone suddenly thought of so much!
There really was an extraordinary figure in the Southern Territory!
Could this be the same reclusive figure mentioned in the rumors, living at the outskirts of the Cangli Mountain Range?
Hearing this, Yuanyang and Ling Chao exchanged glances, revealing a complex smile in their eyes.
“We can tell you two pieces of news.”
Yuanyang began, saying:
“First, Lu Rang was originally an outer disciple of the Divine Sword Sect, and because of his low cultivation level, merely at Foundation Establishment, he was sent to explore the outskirts of the Cangli Mountain Range by the Divine Sword Sect.”
“Second, Young Master Long Zixuan was the cast-off prince of the Saint Dragon Dynasty, as everyone knows. Likewise, not so long ago, the Saint Dragon Dynasty also sent him to the outskirts of the Cangli Mountain Range, leaving him to fend for himself…”
Yuanyang finished speaking leisurely.
All present suddenly had an epiphany!
“So it turns out that the reclusive great figure really did exist…”
