Chapter 2778
Spirit Jade City, the City Lord Mansion.
A buff purple-robed man stood on top of the City Lord Mansion and looked towards the sky with a sharp gaze. His aura and prestige could shake all those that look upon him!
Suddenly, a giant vortex appeared above the sky, ripples and water bubbles appeared on the vortex, and a giant black-hole appeared in the middle of that vortex.
Two figures came out from the vortex calmly.
“Friends that come from afar, I am glad, hahaha.” The man smilingly said, he was the lord of Spirit Jade City, the head of the Qilian Boundary, a Reverend of the Nine Boundaries, Zi Qingtian!
“Long time no see, Brother Zi still looks as great as ever, Mojiu Zhi shall trouble you with my visit.” The black-robed man said.
His eyes were bright, and he emitted a domineering aura. A true Hierarch expert. Also a Reverend of the Nine Boundaries, the Lord of Mohe Boundary, Mojiu Zhi!
“You’re too courteous, Brother Mojiu. This beauty here must be Brother Mojiu’s step daughter?” Zi Qingtian smiled.
“You’re right, Qingcheng, quickly, come and greet Lord Qingtian.” Mojiu Zhi said with a firm expression.
“Yan Qingcheng greets the Lord.” Yan Qingcheng took a step forward and bowed.
She was wearing a red-robe, beautiful as ever, yet still exerting a powerful aura.
“Hahaha, truly, the step-daughter of Brother Mojiu, smart, talented and strong. I’m truly envious. Beautiful to boot, I wonder how many men will fall before her.” Zi Qingtian nodded.
“The Lord is too modest.” Yan Qingcheng gave out a charming smile.
Even Zi Qingtian, an expert who has reached the Hierarch Realm, couldn’t help but gasp. Truly one of a kind, not even heaven has such a beauty.
“Brother Zi, there are only twenty slots for the Profound Connection Divine Palace for each nine boundaries. Meaning, there are only sixty participants that could enter the four great divine territories of the Northern Cold Divine Region, it’s much lesser compared to last year.” Mojiu Zhi said.
“There’s nothing we can do about it, we do not have the power to change anything, hehehe. Only a few dozen people could enter amongst the 27 boundaries, my Lone Dragon County is somewhat honored. However, that is for the future, now that the prodigies of the nine boundaries have gathered, I am feeling the pressure. This Reverend of the Nine Boundaries is not an easy position.” Zi Qingtian slightly frowned and sighed.
“You’re right. Therefore, this time, I chose to move behind the scenes. Hehe, as for the Mo He Boundary, the Chang Sheng (Long Live) Boundary will support me, I am free now and will take this chance to visit you. Maybe, I can even get myself a good son-in-law.” Mojiu Zhi said with a smile.
However, Zi Qingtian was secretly sneering. What scheme is he trying to pull?
“That is naturally great, I, the lord of Qilian Boundary, do not wish to manage it, why not Brother Mojiu take the helm? Hahaha.” Zi Qingtian said with a laugh.
“Brother Zi is joking, I’m just here for the party, I do not wish to question the battle for the Profound Connection Divine Palace. Not even my step-daugther has special privileges, she too needs to work for it, only then could she have the ticket to enter the Profound Connection Divine Palace,” Mojiu Zhi said while shaking his head.
“Agreed, places are scarce, only twenty slots were given for the nine boundaries. A few true great talents will emerge from the fall of countless prodigies. Qiancheng is talented, she’ll certainly have a seat for it. That is without a doubt.” Zi Qingtian looked towards Yan Qingcheng and nodded.
“I heard that Brother Zi’s son is a true prodigy as well, and is already at the Late Divine King Realm. He should probably obtain the top 3 rank.”
“My son is slow, he’s not worth mentioning.”
Even so, Zi Qingtian was smiling, Zi Xi would most likely reach the top 5 without a hitch with his Late Divine King cultivation realm.
“There are still ten more days before the competition starts. Nobody knows what the result would be, as talented men gather from all over. There were countless dark horses that have emerged every single time.” Mojiu Zhi said with a firm tone.
“It’s difficult to break through the Divine King Realm. It’s not enough to just be talented. All Hierarchs are talented and possess great will. One needed to possess great understanding and comprehension of the Dao. It’s even rare for one to reach the Hierarch Realm amongst one million Divine Kings. Especially for a barren place like our Lone Dragon County that lacks talent, it has already been ten thousand years since the last Hierarch.” Zi Qingtian sighed.
“The path of cultivation is difficult.” Mojiu Zhi sighed.
“Brother Mojiu, for the time being, stay in the City Lord Mansion, let’s catch up later.” Zi Qingtian said.
Because, currently, a telepathic message was sent to him, it was from Zi Xi, waiting outside the hall. It was something important.
“Alright, we’ll catch up at a later date. Haha.”
Mojiu Zhi squinted his eyes and looked towards Zi Qingtian who was leaving and said in quiet voice:
“It all depends on you, whether you’re able to get the Great Bright Lord’s Relic.”
“Understood.” Yan Qingcheng replied.
She already possesses a Great Bright Lord’s Relic, it was an extremely important item.
In the City Lord Mansion, within the side-hall, Zi Xi came rushing back with a heavy expression.
“What’s the matter, why are you in such a panic?” Zi Qingtian said.
He did not reprimand Zi Xi as he was not one to fluster. He wouldn’t be showing such an expression if it was not something serious.
“Jiang Chen is not dead.” Zi Xi took a deep breath and said.
“Are you sure?” Zi Qingtian asked.
“Yes, plus, he wrecked chaos upon the Linhe Boundary, turning it upside down.” Zi Xi continued,
“Good, good, a true demon lord indeed. Hahaha, interesting, that fella is really quite capable, never underestimate him. He’s a true prodigy, not even you can match up to him, he was not even a Divine King before, right?”
Zi Qingtian smiled and caressed his chin with an interested gaze. That little fella is definitely the scariest prodigy out of all the nine boundaries under me. He’s tough to be able to escape from the Thunder Rush Sea, he’s phenomenal.
“Eastern Emperor Sect, you’ve gotten yourselves a good disciple.” Zi Qingtian said.
“There’s another news, it’s not verified. But it’s widely spread in the Linhe Boundary.” Zi Xi said.
“What is it?”
“He came out from the Zhou Mountain Ridge, Luo Feng Valley.” Zi Xi said seriously, not knowing whether to believe it or not.
“Zhou Mountain Ridge, Luo Feng Valley?” Zi Qingtian’s expression became serious.
If that is true… then, Jiang Chen is not as simple as he seems. That’s even a place where Hierarchs and Divine Emperors could not enter.
“It’s probably blown out of proportion, I don’t quite believe it, however, stay on Jiang Chen’s good side, remember, you must not become enemies with him.” Zi Qingtian looked at Zi Xi and said in a firm tone.
