Cang Xiaotian was discussing with Duanmu Qing when to send her back to the capital, when Yuanfeiji arrived.
"There are visitors from Shangyu City, the capital of the country. They are looking for Master Tianxue by name."
Hearing this, Cang Xiaotian and Duanmu Qing looked at each other.
Someone from Shangyu City?
Without any further speculation, Cang Xiaotian and the others immediately arrived at the Tianyao Gate meeting hall.
The person who came was a middle-aged man, wearing a soap robe, with an intermediate level of spiritual cultivation.
When he saw Cang Xiaotian, the middle-aged man handed him a jade sticker.
Cang Xiaotian took it doubtfully, and a ray of spiritual consciousness penetrated it. It turned out to be an invitation from Emperor Shang Yu.
Ten years ago, Emperor Shangyu sent Duanmu Yun to investigate the neighboring Youhe Empire, and concluded that Emperor Youhe had indeed fallen.
The huge empire suddenly lost its leader.
The leader is second to none, but the most important thing is that Emperor Youhe is the strongest being in the Youhe Empire. When he died, the originally peaceful situation was broken.
Within the empire, the major sects and forces, including the original royal family, began to have constant friction.
As time goes by, the situation gradually escalates from calmness to fierce conflict, and now it is a non-stop fight.
The various forces are competing for each other, and what they are competing for is naturally cultivation resources.
This has always been the case in the entire world of spiritual practice.
In the past, with Emperor Youhe, the strongest man, standing by to frighten him, all forces in the Youhe Empire had to restrain themselves, but now, all restraints no longer exist.
Under such a situation, the Shangyu Empire and the Yelong Empire, two of the three empires, certainly wanted a share of the pie.
This time, Emperor Shang Yu personally sent out invitations, inviting powerful men from all the major sects in the empire to participate. Master Tianxue of the Tianyao Sect was among them.
It seems that Cang Xiaotian's instant kill of Ge Yang has also reached the ears of Emperor Shang Yu.
After seeing off the envoy, Cang Xiaotian and everyone gathered in the meeting hall.
"Cang boy, do you plan to go?"
Yuan Feiji was the first to speak.
On the side, Duanmu Qing, Hu Meng'er and Hu Qiao also looked at Cang Xiaotian.
Cang Xiaotian looked at everyone's expressions and couldn't help but laugh: "Emperor Shang Yu personally invited me. It would be disrespectful to others not to go."
"Moreover, this is also an endorsement of the Tianyao Sect. With Emperor Shang Yu's invitation, I believe that those who are hostile to the half-human and half-beast clan must consider it carefully."
Hearing this, Hu Qiao and Hu Meng'er looked at each other and nodded.
Cang Xiaotian is right. To break the prejudice and hostility of others, in addition to one's own strength, it is also important to have the care of other powerful beings.
In this way, the half-human and half-beast clan will have time to reproduce and improve. Especially Hu Meng'er, who has awakened the nine-tailed fox bloodline before. As long as she is given enough time, she will definitely grow into a powerful being in the future.
"That's fine." Yuan Feiji looked at everyone, "I'm not going anywhere, I'm just guarding the Tianyao Gate. You kid, you must not die."
Hearing what she said, Duanmuqing and Hu Meng'er couldn't help but glance at Yuan Feiji.
I thought this guy was really arrogant.
Of course Cang Xiaotian wouldn't care. He cupped his hands cooperatively and said with a smile, "Then I'll thank you, Mr. Tiange!"
…
The time set by Emperor Shangyu was to arrive at Shangyu City in one month. It was still early, so Cang Xiaotian was not in a hurry to leave, so he practiced at Tianyaomen.
After achieving the Divine Spirit Realm, although Cang Xiaotian's strength has greatly increased, he is very clear that there is still a big gap between himself and other Divine Spirit Realms, especially the high-level powerful ones.
No matter it's physical skills, state of mind, or the degree of mystery of moves.
Don't forget, so far, Cang Xiaotian only has one set of "Water Walking" movement technique, which was obtained at the Cang Family Scripture Collection Pavilion on the fifth continent. It is just an ordinary movement technique.
Although it has been upgraded and improved later, with the improvement of cultivation level, "Water Walking" obviously does not match Cang Xiaotian's current cultivation level.
As for martial arts, he can be said to have created his own sword technique based on the "Taibai Sword Technique". Only the one that suits him is the best. From this perspective, Cang Xiaotian does not need new martial arts skills for the time being.
.
"That sword technique with one real and two imaginary parts is called 'One Life Fate'!"
Cang Xiaotian murmured to himself.
The reason why it is called ‘One Life Fate’ is actually related to Duanmu Qing.
He and Duan Muqing spent a hundred years in the Ice and Fire Continent before they successfully broke through to the divine realm, and thus created this sword technique.
For ordinary people, a hundred years is a lifetime.
The name "One Life Destiny" is both commemorative and forgetful.
In Cang Xiaotian's heart, the relationship between him and Duanmu Qing was over. At the same time, he knew that Duanmu Qing thought the same way.
Of course, the two are still close friends.
Even better than a close friend.
Cang Xiaotian searched the Mei Yuan Sect's warehouse and found no body law books suitable for him. The Mei Yuan Sect was originally a third- and fourth-rate sect and had not many collections, so it was even harder to find suitable books.
"This time when I go to Youhe Empire, I will also collect some classics."
Cang Xiaotian thought to himself.
Even if he doesn't need it, it's still good to give it to the half-human and half-animal clan.
Cang Xiaotian practiced alone in the small courtyard. After only five days, he had to stop.
Another visitor came to the Tianyao Sect, this time, it was Master Mo.
Because of the disappearance of Princess Qing, Master Mo was placed under house arrest by Emperor Shang Yu, and had no way to contact the outside world. Now that Duanmu Qing and Cang Xiaotian have returned safely, Master Mo has also regained his freedom.
Of course Master Mo also heard about Cang Xiaotian's amazing achievements.
Even though Master Mo was horrified by the fact that the basic level of a god instantly killed a high-level god, he could accept it considering Cang Xiaotian's previous performance of being able to instantly kill a basic level of god at the ultimate level of body refining.
Riding a spiritual flying boat, Master Mo took Princess Qing's personal maid Lingxi to the Tianyao Gate.
"Young Master Tianxue is extremely talented, and his cultivation is really making rapid progress!"
While drinking tea, Master Mo smiled.
Going to the extreme cold north to do the coming of age ceremony mission seems like just yesterday. But now, Cang Xiaotian has not only led Duanmu Qing to escape the endless abyss safely, but is even as powerful as Master Mo.
Such progress can only be described as a monster.
Cang Xiaotian and Duanmu Qing looked at each other and smiled: "It's just a fluke. By the way, Master Mo, did you hear about Emperor Shang Yu's invitation this time?"
"I heard." Master Mo gently put down the tea bowl, "I am also here."
"Oh?" Cang Xiaotian and Duanmu Qing were both surprised.
Master Mo is the caregiver assigned by Emperor Shang Yu to look after Princess Qing. Logically speaking, he should be inseparable from Duanmu Qing.
This is the arrangement now...
On the one hand, committing crimes and meritorious service means Duanmuqing's royal status...
Master Mo didn't say it clearly.
Duanmu Qing didn't ask either.
But all three people present understood.
"It doesn't matter, the world of practitioners respects the strong, so just practice hard."
Finally, Master Mo finally said something.
"Xiaoqing..."
Cang Xiaotian wanted to speak but stopped.
"I'm fine."
Duanmu Qing's fair face looked as usual, but two lines of clear tears fell silently and uncontrollably.
