Chapter 2018 - 2015: Jiuli!
Two hours later, a heavenly light flashed brilliantly, vast spiritual energy rolled, and then the light disappeared from sight.
The entire sky above the pavilion returned to tranquility.
This change was swift; besides the people at Tieyun Peak who noticed, those at other peaks didn’t pay any attention.
However, in the depths of the Glazed Tile Palace, atop a pavilion, the King of Glaze stood with hands behind his back, gaze like a torch, looking afar.
Beside him stood a youthful figure, handsome and refined.
He was clad in purple clothes, bearing a resemblance in demeanor to the King of Glaze.
At this moment, he stood beside the King, asking in a deep tone, "Father, why did you also give him the token?"
"If he fails, won’t his identity be exposed?"
"Don’t worry. That’s a temporary token, only enough for him to use the super transmission array for a round trip."
"If he’s really killed, the task fails, and the token will disappear as well."
The King of Glaze said casually, "However, I feel like he might actually succeed."
"Really, could he be even more formidable than those Great Powers?"
The young man in purple was somewhat doubtful, yet the King squinted, and stars shone within his eyes.
The Central Continent, vast and boundless, besides the Taiyi Dynasty, there were eight other great dynasties.
The Jiuli Dynasty was among them.
The territory of the Jiuli Dynasty adjoined that of the Taiyi Dynasty. At the border of these two dynasties, there were often conflicts.
But overall, it remained quite peaceful.
In the area near the border between the two nations, there was another special region known as the Eastern Li Tribe.
The Jiuli Clan was divided into eastern and western branches; currently, the Jiuli Dynasty was under the control of the Western Jiuli branch.
Meanwhile, the Eastern Jiuli had been pushed to the fringes.
Within this area lies a city called Dingxiang City.
Not only is this city filled with blooming lilacs, but even the surrounding area is covered in lilacs.
The faint fragrance gathers in the air, refreshing anyone who smells it.
"Young Master, buy a lilac flower."
The buildings within the city were tall and magnificent, and the streets stretched like dragons, seemingly endless.
People came and went, a bustling and lively scene.
On the roadside, a little girl held a bundle of lilac flowers, offering them to passersby.
"Are you stupid?"
"Lilac flowers are everywhere in Dingxiang City. Why buy them?" Mocked someone with a disdainful laugh, casting a glance at the little girl on the roadside.
"No, those lilacs are golden. My lilacs are white."
The little girl said timidly, but received no attention.
However, she did not give up, persistently asking along the roadside.
Soon, she saw a charming young man in a red robe approaching, instantly running over.
"Brother, brother. Buy a lilac flower, mine is white."
"Whose little girl is trying to deceive people here?"
"No one will buy them, lilacs aren’t white. She’s clearly a scam."
"It’s dyed with paint," murmured the pedestrians, shaking their heads in amusement.
Yet, the red-robed youth stopped in his tracks.
This youth was none other than Lin Xuan. Having utilized the super transmission array from the Glazed Tile Palace, he arrived at the Jiuli Dynasty.
Now, in accordance with his mission, he reached Dingxiang City.
Lin Xuan looked down at the frail little girl and said, "Alright, I’ll buy one. How much?"
"One piece of top-grade Subdivine Crystal."
The girl said timidly.
Surrounding members gasped in shock, "Whoa, this girl is crazy!"
"Dare to ask for a piece of top-grade Subdivine Crystal?"
"It’s just a wilted flower, worth that much money?"
However, Su Chen handed over a piece of top-grade Subdivine Crystal and took a white lilac from the girl’s hand.
"Brother, this lilac will bless you."
"Good child." Lin Xuan patted the girl’s head, then asked, "Little girl, do you know where the Jiuli Tower is?"
"Over there," the girl pointed afar.
Then, she departed, skipping with joy after receiving a piece of top-grade Subdivine Crystal.
Soon, she vanished amid the crowd.
The surroundings buzzed with commotion, everyone speaking in hushed tones while looking at Lin Xuan.
"Is this guy an idiot?"
"Using a piece of top-grade Subdivine Crystal to buy a mere flower?"
"He’s brainless, for sure!"
"Such a waste, a top-grade Subdivine Crystal is immensely valuable, yet he spent it on a flower!"
Many shook their heads in disbelief.
Nonetheless, within the crowd, there were a few icy gazes with smiles. They fixated on Lin Xuan, eyes glinting with greed.
Though they didn’t know Lin Xuan, anyone effortlessly producing a top-grade Subdivine Crystal surely had immense wealth.
Moreover, the aura he exuded wasn’t overly strong, so they assumed he was an easy prey.
Such prey was not to be missed by them.
At once, several martial artists concealed their presence, quietly trailing Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan squinted, a cold smile appearing on his lips. Truly fearless, they dare follow him?
However, he paid them no heed, as his goal this time was the Jiuli Tower.
The Jiuli Tower was easy to find due to its grand scale, towering magnificently, resembling a pagoda touching the heavens, standing firmly on the ground.
Its surface was marked by the passage of time.
Yet, the vicinity of Jiuli Tower was desolate; people rarely visited.
Arriving here, Lin Xuan regarded the towering Jiuli Tower ahead, lost in thought.
Soon, however, he frowned, speaking coldly, "Come out!"
Humph!
"Impressive soul perception, managing to detect us three brothers."
"So what if he has detected us? A mere boy, can he hope to escape?"
The three mocked.
"Kid, I’d advise you to hand over your storage ring willingly, and I’ll let you leave."
"Otherwise, don’t blame us for being ruthless!"
Three big men wore sinister grins as they gazed at Lin Xuan.
Get lost!
"I don’t wish to kill." Lin Xuan said coldly.
"Damn! Arrogant?"
"Do you know who we three brothers are?"
"Kid, nobody’s spoken to us like this before, you’re the first!"
"I’ll ensure you experience a fate worse than death!"
"Stop wasting time, let’s move."
The three big men sneered. Next moment, they unleashed three King Domains, overlapping to cover Lin Xuan.
"Three late-stage six-star Kings?"
Humph!
Lin Xuan sneered disdainfully, such people were beneath his notice.
The next moment, black flames rose from his body, enveloping him, then began spreading around.
Instantly, the three King Domains burst into brilliant flames.
"Damn! How is this possible!"
The three men looked horrified, unable to believe their King Domains were ignited.
And they actually burned!
This instilled sheer terror in them.
