Chapter 3223: Wu Ruyi (One)
After hearing Hei Ya’s words, everyone immediately became astounded. All of them praised Yang Lie with some envy.
Yang Lie chuckled away. He stroked his beard as he said with great delight, “Why don’t you take a look at who my great-grandson is? Back then on the Tian Yuan Continent, he possessed the title of the human sovereign. Just with my grandson’s talent, can he be a regular person?” Yang Lie gazed at Hei Ya. He was completely unable to tell his cultivation, but to him, he obviously could not be too powerful since he was a servant.
“You’re called Hei Ya, right? You don’t need to refer to us as seniors. With our strength that hasn’t even reached Godhood, it just feels strange to be referred to as seniors. You can just call us by our names,” Yang Lie patted Hei Ya on the shoulder and said amicably.
Hei Ya clasped his fist again and bowed politely. He was stern and said, “Manners are crucial. I can never do that!’
“Enough, we can talk about this in the future. Let’s go to the Tian Yuan clan first.”
“Wait, I think we should find somewhere safe first and go to the Tian Yuan clan once we’ve broken through to Godhood,” someone suggested.
“Yeah, I think so too. With all these years of accumulation, reaching Godhood shouldn’t take too long for us. Once we reach Godhood, we’ll be freed from the restriction of a lifespan. There’s just an intrinsic difference between Godhood and the Origin realm.”
After some further thought, Yang Lie agreed. He turned to Hei Ya and said, “Hei Ya, you’re familiar with this place. Why don’t you take us somewhere safe so that we can cultivate first? We can return to the Tian Yuan clan once we reach Godhood.”
“As you wish, senior!” Hei Ya abided by everything that Yang Lie said. With a wave of his hand, a carriage immediately appeared. He stood at the front of the carriage and made an inviting gesture towards Yang Lie politely. “Please take a seat, senior. I’ll lead you to somewhere quiet so that you can cultivate.”
They all boarded the carriage. In the next moment, the carriage rushed into the air, appearing over the capital city of the Pingtian Empire instantly. Afterwards, without pausing for a second, it directly shot over the capital city, vanishing very soon.
The capital city of the Pingtian Empire possessed strict rules. The only people bold enough to fly over the capital city in such a fearless manner were the high-ranking members of the Tian Yuan clan.
In the carriage, Yang Lie and everyone else was completely unaware that they had already entered the capital city that they had shrunk back from earlier. They looked and felt around in the carriage as if they were extremely curious about all the decor inside.
“What kind of jade is this? Why does it feel refreshing to the touch?”
“And this fabric, it seems to be something impressive too. When I sit on it, I actually feel warmth fill up my entire body.”
“And this cushion. It seems to possess some special properties too. Yang Lie, this carriage seems quite special. Even we don’t recognise a lot of the materials used to construct it.”
They discussed and studied the carriage seriously. However, before they had even spoken for long, Hei Ya’s voice rang out from outside politely, “Seniors, we’re here!”
“We’re here? So quickly?” They were stunned, disembarking from the carriage in confusion. What filled their eyes was a wide, bustling street.
They were located in the centre of the capital city. It was an extremely busy place.
The carriage stopped quietly in front of a large courtyard. The courtyard took up an extremely vast area. They could not see how it was inside, but the imposing entrance alone was stunning.
“Seniors, you can break through here.” Hei Ya suggested to them politely as he stood to one side.
They gazed at the imposing entrance, all of them astounded.
“We were thinking any safe inn would do, yet you actually found us such a large courtyard. That’s a little wasteful.”
“Tsktsktsk. You can tell that this place is exceptional from a single glance. A year of rent here will probably be quite a lot.”
……
…
Standing at the entrance, they all sighed. Among them, apart from Feng Xiaotian who came from a large sect, all of them had only visited small towns with scarce resources when they roamed the Saints’ World. They had never seen such an impressive courtyard before.
At this moment, at the end of the street, a carriage rolled over slowly, protected by over a dozen Godhood guards.
The carriage belonged to the middle-aged woman from the Hundred Acceptance sect!
Outside the courtyard, Hei Ya had already stowed the carriage away, about to bring Yang Lie and the others inside.
“Hmm? Look, doesn’t that carriage belong to the female senior who helped us out earlier?” The ancestor of the Heaven’s Incense School suddenly noticed the carriage and called out in surprise.
“The female senior had helped us out with kind intentions before. We might not have been able to keep those resources in the end, but we can’t forget her kindness.”
“Yeah. That female senior left in a hurry earlier. We couldn’t even thank her properly. Now that we’ve encountered her here, we ought to pay her a visit.”
Hei Ya, who stood to one side, seemed to hear something from their conversation. A vicious light immediately flashed through his eyes, and he said politely, “Seniors, did you encounter any trouble before?”
“Sigh, it’s all a matter of the past, so let’s not mention it again. We can’t afford to provoke an existence as lofty as them.” Yang Lie waved his hand, reluctant to say anything else. Afterwards, the group of them made their way towards the carriage from the Hundred Acceptance sect.
At this moment, the middle-aged woman sat uneasily within the carriage. She seemed to be pestered by worries that refused to let up.
Apart from the middle-aged woman, there was a young lady sitting in there too. From her appearance, she was around eighteen or nineteen years of age. She had a fair complexion and a pure appearance. She gave off a sense of elegance with her actions, like a young miss of an important family.
The middle-aged woman was a Godking elder of the Hundred Acceptance sect. Her name was Wu Ruyi.
As for the young lady seated with her, she was the youngest daughter of the sect master of the Hundred Acceptance sect, Die Yi.
“Die Yi, you’ll be meeting with the youngest prince of the Pingtian Empire this time. It’s an opportunity that the ancestor of our Hundred Acceptance sect has earned through great difficulties. You have to establish a good impression and cater to the prince when you see him. If he fancies you, the greatest danger that we are facing in the history of our Hundred Acceptance sect will be resolved in passing,” Wu Ruyi instructed earnestly. After saying that, she sighed gently. She was helpless.
Die Yi bit her lip gently. Determination filled her large, dark eyes that were still slightly innocent. She said softly, “I’ll definitely do well, as I know that establishing a tie with the Pingtian Empire is the only hope for saving our Hundred Acceptance sect right now.”
At this moment, the carriage came to a slow stop. A somewhat familiar voice rang out from outside.
“We didn’t expect to encounter senior here again. We’ve come to express our gratitude for senior’s assistance earlier.”
When she heard the voice, Wu Ruyi was immediately taken aback. She emerged from the carriage in the blink of an eye. Immediately, she noticed Yang Lie and the others who stood cautiously yet gratefully outside the carriage.
