Chapter 398: Observing the Ceremony (2)

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

The transport ship docked at a special port.

Chen Daoxuan led Chen Fusheng and the others out of the ship.

Everyone flew out of the harbor.

A large number of Zhou Family cultivators lined up in the air to welcome him.

These Zhou Family cultivators were all dressed in the same attire. They were all embroidered with Fire Spirit Pearls and embroidered with Yin and Yang on their backs.

In the high sky where the strong wind was blowing, these Zhou Clan cultivators stood on both sides, giving off a unique aura.

“Welcome, Clan Leader Chen!”

“Welcome, Clan Leader Chen!”

“Welcome, Clan Leader Chen!”

High up in the sky, the Zhou Clan cultivators ‘singing echoed in the sky, their voices imposing.

Other than the Zhou Clan cultivators who were welcoming the guests, Zhou Mubai personally stood in the middle of the line, looking at Chen Daoxuan from afar.

“Fellow Daoist Chen, welcome to the Zhou Clan.”

“Fellow Daoist Zhou, your formation is too big. 1 can’t afford it!”

Chen Daoxuan immediately led his clansmen forward and cupped his hands with a smile.

Since the Zhou family had made such a big fuss, Chen Daoxuan naturally wouldn’t take it too seriously. They had to give each other face. Chen Daoxuan naturally understood this simple principle.

“Haha.”

Zhou Mubai smiled freely when he heard that.” Fellow Daoist Chen, you are now the number one person in our Cang Prefecture. Naturally, you have to have such a lineup. Please!”

“Please!”

Chen Daoxuan said with a smile.

Along the way.

Zhou Mubai kept looking at Luo Li, who was beside Chen Daoxuan.

After a long time.

Zhou Mubai couldn’t help but say,”This fairy seems a little unfamiliar.

Although he could sense the faint demonic aura emanating from Luo Li, he still found it a little strange.

Logically speaking.

The demons had to be at least in the Nascent Soul Stage to reach Luo Li’s level of transformation.

Zhou Mubai could clearly sense that this woman was only a late-stage Zifu Disciple.

He could not be wrong about this.

Furthermore, Zhou Mubai felt that the woman in front of him was somewhat familiar. He seemed to have seen her somewhere before.

Cultivators all had good memories.

Zhou Mubai pondered for a moment and finally remembered where he had seen him before. His expression changed slightly.

“Fairy is from the merman race?”

“That’s right.”

Luo Li suppressed the anger in her heart and said forcefully.

Zhou Mubai knew about the conflict between his family and the merfolk clan. He simply smiled bitterly and did not say anything else.

“This is my dao companion,” Chen Daoxuan said with a smile.”

“What?”

Zhou Mubai looked at Chen Daoxuan in disbelief.

“Fellow Daoist Chen, are you saying…”

“That’s right.”

Chen Daoxuan nodded.

After a while.

Only then did Zhou Mubai regain his senses. He cupped his hands and said,”I hereby congratulate Fellow Daoist Chen and Fairy for being united forever and obtaining the Great Dao together.”

Chen Daoxuan smiled and said,”Thank you.

in

Upon hearing these blessings, Luo Li’s tense expression immediately eased up.

With a smile on her face, Zhou Mubai felt that the scenery around him had become even more beautiful.

“This woman is so beautiful. No wonder Fellow Daoist Chen is so fond of her.”

Zhou Mubai thought to himself.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two sides was a little dull, Chen Daoxuan took the initiative to speak,””Brother Zhou, who are the families that have come to attend the ceremony?”

“It’s a rare event for a Golden Core cultivator to transcend the tribulation. The various immortal clans in Azure Continent have basically sent people over. In addition, Yuanchen Immortal City and the Jiang family in Taizhou have also sent people over.”

“Oh?”

Chen Daoxuan was slightly shocked. He had originally thought that only Azure Continent cultivators would come to watch Ancestor Zhou’s tribulation. He did not expect there to be cultivators from other provinces.

Although it was rare for a Golden Core cultivator to undergo a tribulation, its influence was not so great that it could even attract cultivators from other states.

After all, the distance between the provinces was far. Perhaps by the time the cultivators from other provinces received the news and rushed over, they would have already completed their Golden Core Lightning Tribulation.

The cultivators of the Jiang Family and Yuanchen Immortal City had sent people over. Clearly, something was wrong.

Chen Daoxuan knew that these two forces were rather at odds.

It was rumored that Perfected Lord Yuan Chen was forced out of Taizhou by the Jiang Family. In the end, Perfected Lord Yuan Chen was also unyielding and built an immortal city near Taizhou.

It was as if he was not going to leave!

However, the immortal city built by Perfected Lord Yuan Chen actually grew step by step and became the largest immortal city in the three states.

Now that Perfected Lord Yuan Chen had the strength and power, it really gave the Jiang Family a headache.

If they wanted to deal with a Nascent Soul Realm rogue cultivator who had no foundation, the Jiang Family might have a lot of means.

However, it was not so easy to deal with a Nascent Soul who had both strength and foundation.

The reason was simple.

The Jiang Family could use force to deal with a Nascent Soul Realm rogue cultivator.

As long as he was not a guest elder of the Qianyuan Sword Sect, even if the Jiang Family dealt with him, it would not cause much trouble.

However, if the Jiang Family wanted to deal with Yuan Chen Immortal City, the impact would be completely different.

As the largest immortal city in the three states, Yuan Chen Immortal City paid an astronomical amount of tax to the Qian Yuan Sword Sect every year.

If the Jiang Family were to force their way in, the Qian Yuan Sword Sect would definitely not sit idly by.

At that time, the Qi family of the Nascent Soul Immortal Race, which had been destroyed back then, would be the example of the Jiang family.

Chen Daoxuan and Zhou Mubai looked at each other and said,””Brother Zhou, why do you think these two families came to my Cang Prefecture?”

Hearing this.

Zhou Mubai thought for a moment and shook his head.” Brother Chen, you’re worrying too much. No matter how the major immortal clans in the Infinite Star Sea develop, their sphere of influence cannot exceed a state. This is an iron law!”

He paused for a moment.” With the example of the Qi Family in Yuzhou, who would dare to cross the line? The Qianyuan Sword Sect is like the sun in the sky. Do they really dare to rebel?””

The Qi Family that Zhou Mubai mentioned was the Nascent Soul Stage family that was personally destroyed by the previous sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.

The reason was that the Qi family had destroyed a small family.

Chen Daoxuan had forgotten whether the small family that had been destroyed was a Refinement Stage family or a Foundation Building Stage family. Anyway, it was a small family at the bottom of the Infinite Star Sea.

It was not much stronger than the fallen Chen family back then.

Logically speaking, for a Yuanying Stage family to exterminate such a small family, it was not even a matter of squashing an ant. How could the Qianyuan Sword Sect be so arrogant?

However, the result shocked all the cultivation families in the Infinite Star Sea. The Qian Yuan Sword Sect had exterminated the Qi Family for the sake of this sect.

It was said that some people from the Qi family escaped back then, but some people said that they didn’t.

However, the destruction of the Qi Family, the overlord of Yuzhou, was certain.

Later, the major immortal clans in the Infinite Star Sea realized that the Qi Family was not destroyed because they had destroyed a small family, but because they had extended their hands beyond Yuzhou.

This had obviously exceeded the bottom line of the Qianyuan Sword Sect.

When the Qian Yuan Sword Sect enfeoffed the immortal clans in each state, it clearly stipulated that the major immortal clans in the state could not expand their forces to other states.

Trade was nothing.

However, the Qi Family had gone too far. They actually relied on their own strength to invade the outer states.

The small family that was destroyed was just one of them.

However, they did it as a declaration to the whole state. Now, the Qianyuan Sword Sect finally got hold of it and ruthlessly destroyed it.

It was also this battle that made the other big families in the Infinite Star Sea fear the Qian Yuan Sword Sect like a tiger, and they did not dare to cross the line.

In fact…

Back then, the Chen family was able to survive when they were weak and not be coveted by other families because of the power of this battle.

As for the reason why the Qian Yuan Sword Sect restricted the power of the families in the various states, it was naturally to maintain its ruling position.

In the end, cultivators still relied on resources to cultivate.

Spiritual veins, spirit stones, magic tools, pills, and so on. All the resources needed for cultivation could only be guaranteed by a huge sphere of influence.

A prefecture could only support two or three Nascent Souls at most.

For example, the Jiang Family had managed Tai Province like an iron bucket, but it was already their limit to support three Nascent Souls and their huge clan members.

If they wanted to produce more Nascent Souls, the resources in Tai Province alone were indeed insufficient.

This was also the fundamental reason why the Qi Family invaded other provinces back then.

From the perspective of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.

As long as the various immortal clans were restricted to a single state, they could limit their strength.

On the other hand, the Qian Yuan Sword Sect relied on the entire Infinite Star Sea and even a part of the Yun Nation to support themselves. Their strength was much stronger than the cultivation families in a state at most.

On the one hand, it would limit the strength of the big families, and on the other hand, it would strengthen its own strength.

In this way, the rule of the Qianyuan Sword Sect was as stable as Mount Tai.

If there was no external intervention or internal strife in the Qianyuan Sword Sect, this situation would be almost impossible to break..
