Invincible Over the World

Chapter 2253 - 2245: Heading to the Holy Sect Headquarters

Looking at Liu Cheng’s cautious appearance, Huang Xiaolong said, "I’ll go with you to see Continent Master Du Gen later."

Although he is the Saint Heir, Du Gen, as the master of a continent, is equivalent to a sovereign minister governing a territory. Since the other party has personally come, Huang Xiaolong should not be arrogant and must at least pay a formal greeting.

Sun Huage and Liu Cheng both breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

A while later, the two asked Huang Xiaolong some questions before leaving, planning to return later to escort him.

Two hours later, Sun Huage and Liu Cheng arrived to invite Huang Xiaolong. He, along with Sun Huage and Liu Cheng, took the Holy Sect Branch’s carriage to the main gates of Biluo Imperial City.

Huang Xiaolong brought Zhang Wenyue, Zhang Haochen, and Prince Qian along.

Seeing this, Sun Huage and Liu Cheng couldn’t help but smile wryly. Bringing a few Heavenly Monarchs to greet a Continent Master?! This was probably the first time in the Holy Land’s history.

However, this was Huang Xiaolong’s decision, and they dared not say a word.

A few hours later, Huang Xiaolong and his group arrived at the gates of Biluo Imperial City. When they arrived, a large group of people was already waiting, including the Biluo Emperor Bi Liang, the Nine Heavens Sect, Beidou Sword Sect, and strong figures from Annihilation Valley.

Upon Huang Xiaolong’s arrival, Biluo Emperor Bi Liang and others quickly knelt in salute.

Huang Xiaolong asked everyone to rise, then accompanied them to wait for Heavenly Bull Power Continent Governor Du Gen.

Soon, the space ahead shook violently, and a massive ship imbued with Holy Might broke through the sky.

The vast Holy Might radiated from the "Holy" character on the giant ship, astounding everyone.

Then, the ship’s exit opened, and a group of people followed out.

Leading was the thick-browed, big-eyed continent master Du Gen. Behind Du Gen was the white-haired head protector Hu Gengyi, followed by branch members Yang Chunmei and other protectors and experts. However, all were high-level Supremes and above.

"Deacon of the Holy Sect Headquarters Law Enforcement Hall, Sun Huage, greets Continent Master Du Gen!"

"Biluo Branch Sect Leader Liu Cheng greets Continent Master Du Gen and all protectors!"

When Du Gen emerged, Sun Huage, Liu Cheng, Li Junlong, Jiutian Sect Master Du Youze, Beidou Sword Sect Master Wang Tian, and Annihilation Valley Valley Master Qin Zhixu all stepped forward to salute, kneeling black all over the ground.

Aside from Sun Huage bowing, Liu Cheng, Li Junlong, Du Youze, Wang Tian, and others all knelt.

In the field, only Huang Xiaolong stood there.

At this time, Du Gen hurried forward to Huang Xiaolong, kneeling with one knee: "Heavenly Bull Power Continent Governor Du Gen greets Holy Son!"

Although Du Gen was the Heavenly Bull Power Continent Master, a sovereign minister of a territory, his status in the Holy Sect was equivalent to that of hall masters. But even as a continent master, he must kneel before Huang Xiaolong.

This is the Holy Sect’s rule; except for Holy Sect Elders, everyone else must kneel to the Holy Son.

"Head Protector of Heavenly Bull Power Continent Branch, Hu Gengyi, salutes Holy Son!" Subsequently, Hu Gengyi quickly stepped forward to kneel with one knee to Huang Xiaolong.

Afterwards, branch members Yang Chunmei and other protectors and experts stepped forward to greet Huang Xiaolong.

"Continent Master Du Gen, please rise!" Huang Xiaolong stepped forward, helping Du Gen up with one hand, then said to Hu Gengyi and others: "Please rise, everyone."

Du Gen, Hu Gengyi, and others thanked Huang Xiaolong and then stood up.

Subsequently, Du Gen asked Sun Huage, Liu Cheng, Li Junlong, Biluo Emperor Bi Liang, and others to rise.

While helping Du Gen, Huang Xiaolong sensed the vast, unfathomable power within Du Gen’s body, unconsciously settling down. Is this the power of a Late Stage Tenth-rank Supreme?!

According to Holy Sect rules, only Late Stage Tenth-rank or above Supremes can become a continent master.

This is the most basic condition.

Then, Huang Xiaolong, Sun Huage, Liu Cheng, and others escorted Du Gen, Hu Gengyi, and others back to the Holy Sect Branch.

The Holy Sect Branch had long prepared a banquet.

The banquet was set in both the Inner and Outer Halls.

Huang Xiaolong, Sun Huage, Liu Cheng, Biluo Emperor Bi Liang, Du Gen, Hu Gengyi, and various branch protectors sat in the Inner Hall, while Li Junlong, Jiutian Sect Master Du Youze, Beidou Sword Sect Master Wang Tian, and others could only sit in the Outer Hall.

As for other family heads or first-class forces, they could only respectfully wait outside, without even a seat.

After a series of drinking games, exchanging cups, Du Gen talked with Huang Xiaolong about the journey to the Holy Sect Headquarters and asked for Huang Xiaolong’s opinion.

Huang Xiaolong pondered for a moment and set the schedule for six months later.

He planned to spend these six months properly consuming and refining the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Elixir offered by Biluo Emperor Bi Liang, Jiutian Sect Master Du Youze, and others to further enhance his power.

Six months later, he was confident he could break through to the Dominator Ninth Stage Middle Stage.

At that time, he would set off for the Holy Sect Headquarters.

Hearing Huang Xiaolong set the time for six months later, Du Gen hesitated for a moment before nodding in compliance with Huang Xiaolong’s intentions, because, according to Holy Sect rules, the new Holy Son must report to Headquarters within a year and undergo a second assessment. Huang Xiaolong only needed to arrive at the Headquarters within a year.

With the speed of the branch’s spaceship, it would take only three months to get from Heavenly Bull Power Continent to the Holy Sect Headquarters, so there was still plenty of time.

In the Biluo Branch, Du Gen stayed for two days. After two days, he returned to Heavenly Bull Power Continent City, waiting for six months to come back to escort Huang Xiaolong to the Holy Sect Headquarters.

During Du Gen’s two days at the branch, Huang Xiaolong had quite the "pleasant conversation" with him.

Time flew by, and soon six months passed.

Du Gen arrived as promised, preparing to escort Huang Xiaolong to the Holy Sect Headquarters.

"Holy Son, are you only bringing these few people to the Holy Sect Headquarters?" Du Gen, seeing Huang Xiaolong only accompanied by Zhang Wenyue, Zhang Haochen, Prince Qian, and several Ice Element Divine Beasts, showed a strange expression.

Relative to Huang Xiaolong’s status now, having only these few accompanying seemed too simplistic.

According to the Holy Sect’s rules, the Holy Son may bring up to a thousand followers to the Holy Sect Headquarters. In the past, when a new Holy Son was born, he would have at least hundreds, if not a thousand followers, and most were Supremes.

Huang Xiaolong, however, only brought a few Heavenly Monarchs, and though the Ice Element Divine Beasts were good, they were only at the Dominator Realm.

"A few people are enough." Huang Xiaolong smiled at Continent Master Du Gen, "It’s just followers. Why bring so many?"

Currently, Huang Xiaolong primarily focused on cultivation, improving his strength, first breaking through to the Supreme Realm. After breaking through, he would recruit a batch of Supreme followers later.

Upon hearing this, Du Gen joked half-heartedly, "If every Holy Son were like Holy Son Huang Xiaolong, only bringing a few followers, the Holy Sect Headquarters would probably be much quieter."

The two laughed.

Subsequently, the spaceship took off, rapidly heading for the Holy Sect Headquarters.

On the journey, Huang Xiaolong conversed with Du Gen during the day and cultivated at night.

In these six months, he had already broken through to the Dominator Ninth Stage Middle Stage, but that is still too low. Huang Xiaolong had to fully dedicate himself to cultivation, narrowing the gap with other Holy Sons.

From Wan Zhuoyuan’s memories, Huang Xiaolong learned most other Holy Sons were high-level Supremes, the lowest being middle-stage Supremes.
