Young Master in Flower City

Today at the Yan Mountain battle, the Qianhe Sect was annihilated, and the Sanqing Sect Leader was executed. In just one day, two prodigies of the ancient realm fell, an event unprecedented in ancient realm history.

Moreover, they believe this matter will sweep through the entire Yanzhou ancient realm within half a month, and the names of Xiao Tianyu and his companions will be immortalized.

However, the boastful words Xiao Tianyu just said to Lihen Heaven, Jue Chen, and the Profound Emperor turned into a joke instead.

...

Outside the Yanzhou ancient realm, in the Central Region of Yanzhou.

The Central Region of Yanzhou is truly a place where talents converge, with countless major sects and ancient clans, endless mighty figures, and even super-powerful families like the Liu Family.

The Liu Family is located in Celestial Boat City within Yanzhou’s Central Region.

Celestial Boat City has a history spanning tens of thousands of years, and the Liu Family’s status there is extraordinary, being one of the four major families, with a Divine Separation Stage expert overseeing them, boasting profound heritage.

Furthermore, in recent years, the Liu Family has produced a peerless prodigy, Liu Qianhe, a candidate for the future clan leader of the Liu Family, whose reputation in Celestial Boat City has made the Liu Family rise to prominence.

In fact, their influence has begun to overshadow the other three major families.

Rumor has it that once Liu Qianhe returns from training in the Yanzhou ancient realm, he will undoubtedly step into the Divine Separation Realm, becoming the most formidable person in Celestial Boat City.

As a result, the other three major families in Celestial Boat City have been attempting to align with the Liu Family through marriage, offering direct family members for marriage into the Liu Family.

But who could have anticipated the pride of the Liu Family?

Undeniably, they declined each offer.

The Liu Family claims that Liu Qianhe’s stage is destined not to be Celestial Boat City, for he aims to join the Luoshen Sect for cultivation.

Luoshen Sect, claimed to be the top sect in Yanzhou’s Central Region, has unfathomable heritage. Should Liu Qianhe be truly chosen by the Luoshen Sect, the Liu Family would seemingly be poised to unify Celestial Boat City.

However, today the Liu Family is destined not to be at peace.

At this moment, the great hall of the Liu Family is gathered with all of its high-ranking members, even the Liu Family’s Old Ancestor is present, each bearing a solemn demeanor.

Just moments ago, someone from the Liu Family reported that Liu Qianhe’s Soul Jade Scroll had shattered.

The shattering of the Soul Jade Scroll signifies, without a doubt, that Liu Qianhe has fallen.

This is a furious blow for the Liu Family.

All resources of the Liu Family were poured into Liu Qianhe, yet now Liu Qianhe is dead.

All efforts have been in vain.

He died within the Yanzhou ancient realm.

However, in the Yanzhou ancient realm, Divine Separation Realm experts are simply unable to enter, so who killed Liu Qianhe is currently unknown to the Liu Family.

"Investigate for me if anyone recently came out of the Yanzhou ancient realm. The cause of Qianhe’s death must be uncovered; regardless of who it was, they must pay with their life for Qianhe!" the Liu Family Old Ancestor shouted in fury.

The deceased was, after all, his most cherished grandson, endowed with outstanding talent.

"The investigation is underway. It’s just that Qianhe has just died, and no one has yet returned from the ancient realm, but this matter will ultimately come to light, and the one who killed Qianhe will inevitably pay with their life!" the Liu Family Clan Leader’s voice carried an overwhelming killing intent.

Liu Qianhe was not only the Old Ancestor’s grandson but also his son.

With a son dead, how could a father not be enraged?

...

Seven days later, in the Yanzhou ancient realm.

News that Xiao Tianyu and his companions wiped out the Qianhe Sect spread completely through the Yanzhou ancient realm. The names Xiao Tianyu, Li Fei, Bai Bufan, and Mo Qingluan thoroughly swept the entire Yanzhou ancient realm.

Moreover, the Xiao Sect also stirred quite the waves in the Yanzhou ancient realm.

Even these past few days, people have continuously climbed the mountain to visit the Xiao Sect, hoping to join and cultivate, but each was refused.

The Xiao Sect does not accept outsiders.

Sect Leader Xiao Tianyu, Li Fei, Bai Bufan, and Mo Qingluan support the entire Xiao Sect.

This is rather frustrating.

The grand Xiao Sect accepts no disciples and consists only of four people. How can it be considered a sect?

However, Sect Leader Xiao Tianyu insists on this, and those who hope to join the Xiao Sect for cultivation simply give up.

Yet, in the Yanzhou ancient realm, there are also widespread rumors.

A week ago, during the Qianhe Sect battle at Yan Mountain, Xiao Tianyu offended the Juechen Sword Sect, Lihen Heaven, and the Profound Emperor Hall, three powerful forces. It was said that on that day, Jue Chen warned that if Xiao Tianyu deceived him regarding the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave, the consequences would be beyond what Xiao Tianyu could bear.

Furthermore, there’s word that Li Fei once invited Jue Chen to battle, but Jue Chen was disdainful, thinking Li Fei did not qualify to make him take action.

Not just Jue Chen, but also the Profound Emperor Hall Master, the Profound Emperor, issued bold words that day, saying Xiao Tianyu did not understand the vastness of Yanzhou and should not be so arrogant.

Indeed, these two truly had the qualifications to teach Xiao Tianyu a lesson within the ancient realm.

That day, although Xiao Tianyu retorted, he was at a disadvantage, and how could he be of concern to the two men?

Then came the matter of the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave, half a month later.

That day was indeed an opportunity for everyone in the Yanzhou ancient realm.

Xiao Tianyu had said that the Heavenly Dao pressure inside, not even the Profound Emperor, let alone anyone stronger, could withstand, hence the Ghost Cave gathering after half a month.

At this moment, within the Xiao Sect.

The vast hall of the Xiao Sect contained only four people.

Since the founding of the Xiao Sect, Qin Lan, who once caused trouble, was expelled.

Qin Lan’s sister, Qin Shuang, could have cultivated in the Xiao Sect, but because her sister had once bitten the hand that fed her with Xiao Tianyu and others, she felt she could not face staying and thus left.

Xiao Tianyu did not stop her.

However, after Qin Lan was expelled from the Xiao Sect, she left the ancient realm. Rumors spread that, after leaving the Yanzhou ancient realm, Xiao Lan headed towards Celestial Boat City in the Central Region of Yanzhou.

Seemingly, her purpose for this trip is not difficult to guess.

Liu Qianhe was killed by Xiao Tianyu and the others, and the Qianhe Sect was renamed. If this matter was reported to the Liu Family in Celestial Boat City, would the Liu Family allow Xiao Tianyu and his companions to continue living in this world?

It seems likely that once Xiao Tianyu and his party leave the ancient realm, they will be hunted by the Liu Family’s strongmen.

Regarding the external rumors, Xiao Tianyu seems unconcerned.

At the time of killing Liu Qianhe, he already inquired, knowing the Liu Family had five Divine Separation Stage experts stationed, with the most formidable being the Liu Family Old Ancestor, whose cultivation was at the second level of the Divine Separation.

Following this were the Liu Family Clan Leader and three Elders.

With such familial heritage, he, Xiao Tianyu, had never feared a battle.

After all, he, Xiao Tianyu, was currently at the pinnacle of the Divine Level.

He considered himself invincible below the Divine Separation.

Above the Divine Level, he had yet to taste defeat.

Half a month passed quickly.

At this moment, the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave was filled with every prodigy from the ancient realm, leaving the Ghost Cave area deserted.

Even upon arrival, many had already felt the pressure of the Heavenly Dao emanating from the Ghost Cave.

It seemed Xiao Tianyu’s previous statements were not mistaken.

The Heavenly Dao power within the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave was something that no one could withstand.

But truly, was there no one?

Shush, shush~

Many eyes were on the direction of the Profound Emperor Hall. Half a month ago, the Profound Emperor claimed that although Xiao Tianyu and his companions could not endure the Ghost Cave’s heavenly force, it did not mean others couldn’t.

As expected, the Profound Emperor led a group towards the Ghost Cave entrance.

He intended to see just how terrifying the heavenly force within the Ghost Cave was, to determine if it was as Xiao Tianyu had described.
