Martial Emperor's Inheritance!

Chapter 510 The Martial Emperor's Inheritance!

"Alright, Bu Yu, that's enough."

Wen Fengxiang glanced at his disciple, his mind perfectly clear.

Shang Buyu, that girl, also wanted to get close to that Creation Martial Saint, even if it was just to become a concubine, but she failed time and time again, so she was naturally feeling extremely frustrated.

However, Wen Fengxiang felt that, given the Creation Martial Saint's lustful nature, he would probably take Shang Buyu as a concubine very soon.

At that time, the Longshen Merchant Family will surely gain a great deal of influence, and even the Righteous Qi Sect will benefit considerably.

Therefore, Wen Fengxiang was happy to see Shang Buyu's idea come true.

"Call..."

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in from outside the conference hall, and the next second, Xia Yan and Yun Xin Yue arrived together.

"I'm sorry to have kept you all waiting."

As soon as Xia Yan arrived, she immediately bowed and said apologetically.

"Your Princess Hall, you flatter me."

Apart from the Illusion Venerable, everyone stood up, and the slight displeasure they felt from waiting for so long dissipated.

Wen Fengxiang secretly praised her in his heart, saying that she had done a very good job in putting on a show, worthy of being a princess of the Mystic Xia Imperial Family who had inherited her lineage from ancient times.

"Where is Sage Zhou?"

The Illusion Venerable Xia Yin raised an eyebrow and suddenly spoke.

"My husband was too tired last night and is going to sleep a little longer."

Xia Yan casually made an Illusion Venerable completely bewildered. The others present exchanged bewildered glances, their expressions towards the two women changing.

What kind of inappropriate and lewd words are these?

Well, I never imagined you two were such heroines! How wild did you two go last night that you managed to exhaust a Martial Saint to the point that he's lying in bed wanting to sleep a little longer?!

Of course, this couldn't be said, otherwise the enraged Creation Martial Saint would easily beat him to death.

People pretended not to hear, and Wen Fengxiang immediately changed the subject, saying, "Gentlemen, it's time to head to the Thunder Emperor Relic."

"Yes, that makes sense."

"Are all the supplies ready?"

"Order the fleet to land and welcome the two ladies aboard."

Before Xia Yan and Yun Xin Yue could speak, people immediately surrounded the two women and boarded a landing spaceship.

Immediately afterwards, the entire fleet took off into the air.

On the summit of Thunder Cloud Mountain, Zhou Chen stood tall and elegant, his eyes, as bright as stars, gazing at the departing fleet. A smile played on his lips, and a golden light flashed in his eyes.

Although both are in the Eastern Luo Continent, Azure Xuan Province of the Great Xuan Kingdom is quite far from the Far North Land.

So much so that the entire fleet flew for a whole day before reaching the edge of the Far North Land.

It should be noted that even the slowest small airships in the fleet fly at speeds far exceeding the speed of sound.

It took a whole day to fly at that speed to reach the edge of the Far North Land, which gives you an idea of how far away it was and how vast the Azure Blue World is.

Xuanfu City.

Xuanfu City, located on the edge of the Far North Land, is a key border town of the Northern Han Kingdom, specifically built to defend against the invasions of Demon Beast and Beastman Race from the north.

Therefore, the entire city of Xuanfu City was designed as part of a massive military fortress, built entirely for war and defense.

In other words, most of the people in Xuanfu City were soldiers or their families, with only a small number being native residents or traveling merchants from elsewhere.

As a result, Xuanfu City, which was usually sparsely populated and had a thriving commercial service industry, suddenly saw a surge in visitors after news of the Thunder Emperor Relic spread widely.

Xia Yan and her group had already arrived in Xuanfu City.

Their fleet stopped outside the city, and most of the people stayed on the warships. Only Xia Yan, Yun Xin Yue, Illusion Venerable, and some members of the Shang Family led by Shang Buyu entered the city to gather information.

At this moment, Xia Yan and Yun Xin Yue were in a private room of a tea shop, looking out the window.

The streets were packed with people, a sea of faces, and above the sky, streams of light streaked across the sky.

Those streaks of light were clearly either flying machines or powerful individuals with strength exceeding that of Great Martial Master.

They were heading in the direction that was clearly towards the Thunder Emperor Relic.

The tea shop was bustling with people, most of whom were martial artists brimming with vitality.

"Sister Xia, Sister Xinyue, according to some information gathered by our subordinates, there is an important town called Pearl City on the eastern side of the Far North Land, not far from the Thunder Emperor Relic."

Shang Buyu said calmly, "Pearl City is the largest city in the Far North Land. It is said that an energy defense shield that can resist gales and attacks from Demon Beast is activated there all day long. At this moment, various forces have gathered there, and the number of Martial Venerable experts who have appeared on the surface exceeds two hands."

"What about the Martial Saint?"

Xia Yan raised a delicate eyebrow and said.

As the woman of the Creation Martial Saint, Xia Yan no longer takes the Martial Venerable seriously.

Upon hearing this, Shang Buyu glanced at Xia Yan, secretly despising her, but on the surface he still said calmly, "Currently, the only Martial Saint who openly appears in Pearl City is the Wind Luo Kingdom's national protector, Wind Saint Meng Yunjie."

"The Wind Saint?"

Yun Xin Yue muttered something to herself, then shrugged and said, "Never heard of this person."

Shang Buyu: "..."

Xia Yan: "..."

After an awkward silence, Shang Buyu continued, "According to intelligence, some audacious individuals have risked crossing spatial rifts to infiltrate the Outer Region of Thunder Emperor Relic and acquired quite a few valuable items. After obtaining these precious items, they directly auctioned them off at high prices in Pearl City, attracting many powerful forces and independent cultivators to bid."

"What? Are these people out of their minds?"

Xia Yan's expression changed. The space where the Thunder Emperor Relic were located was still in constant turmoil, and if she was not careful, she would be sucked into the void rift.

Within the void rift, large-scale Space Storm would occasionally sweep through, annihilating even Martial Venerable experts.

Therefore, entering the Thunder Emperor Relic now is truly a life-or-death situation.

Those powerful figures from major forces are very afraid of death and would never venture out at this time. Those entering the Thunder Emperor Relic now are either death warriors trained by aristocratic families and sects or reckless rogue cultivators. In short, they are all cannon fodder.

Of course, if you can enter the Thunder Emperor Relic ahead of time, obtain some valuable items, and escape unscathed, it's worth it.

If they can obtain further clues and gain an edge over others after the Thunder Emperor Relic officially open, they could potentially make a fortune.

After all, exploring ancient ruins relies on seizing the initiative and having great opportunities and luck.

"It seems we need to get to this Pearl City as soon as possible to see if we can get some information, clues, and valuable items about the Thunder Emperor Relic from the explorers who returned alive."

Xia Yan pondered for a moment, then said.

Upon hearing this, Yun Xin Yue also became interested.

From birth until now, Yun Xin Yue has always stayed in Azure Xuan Province, rarely even leaving Thunder Cloud Mountain. Now that Pearl City has gathered countless sects, families, and powerful rogue cultivators, she naturally wants to see it for herself.

"Let's go to Pearl City."

The decisive Xia Yan didn't hesitate. She got up, left the teahouse, and transformed into Guang Biao, shooting into the sky. Yun Xin Yue and Shang Buyu followed, and soon they flew out of Xuanfu City and returned to the fleet that was parked outside the city.

Meanwhile, the Illusion Venerable, who had been hiding in the spatial interlayer, immediately opened a wormhole and returned to the warship in the blink of an eye.

Pearl City, located on the eastern side of the Far North Land, has always been a desolate and sparsely populated city.

After all, the environment in the Far North Land is too harsh. If it weren't for the protective shield formed by an ancient array, the entire city would probably have been destroyed by the fierce gales long ago.

However, when the Thunder Emperor Relic suddenly appeared not far from Pearl City, it revitalized the city, causing a significant increase in its economy and population, making it as prosperous as the capitals of various great nations.

When the allied fleet of the Mystic Xia Imperial Family, the Righteous Qi Sect, and the Longshen Merchant Family appeared in the sky above Pearl City, they saw the continuous stream of light and shadow coming from the distant horizon, a truly astonishing sight.

The light and shadow that resembled a meteor shower were either various flying machines or powerful individuals at the level of Great Martial Master or above.

Within Pearl City, countless fluctuations of vital energy were rising from this majestic city.

Even from atop the floating warship, Xia Yan and the others could sense that the city's vital energy was surging due to the large number of martial artists gathered there.

"It seems the Thunder Emperor Relic really do have something special, attracting so many familiar faces..."

Inside the flagship command center of the Mystic Xia Imperial Family, Illusion Venerable Xia Yin watched this scene and couldn't help but sigh.

She had just used her God Soul power to roughly probe the entire Pearl City and vaguely sensed that there were many powerful spiritual energy fluctuations hidden within the city.

The owners of these spiritual energy fluctuations were almost all Martial Venerable level experts, and many of them were acquaintances of Xia Yin.

According to Xia Yin's estimation, the number of Martial Venerables currently stationed in Pearl City far exceeds the scale of powerful figures possessed by a major country in the Eastern Luo Continent, such as the Great Xuan Kingdom.

"Imperial Grand-Aunt, what's wrong?"

Seeing that the Illusion Venerable seemed to be deep in thought, Xia Yan asked with slight doubt.

"Oh, just sensing some old acquaintances."

Although the Illusion Venerable's words were plain, Xia Yan and the others felt that they contained a great deal of information.

Who is the Imperial Grand-Aunt? She is a powerful figure at the Heavenly Martial Venerable realm, a powerful being capable of intimidating an entire nation.

Therefore, her old acquaintances are probably all strong individuals at the same level as her.

In other words, there are quite a few Martial Venerable experts in this Pearl City!

Xia Yan and Yun Xin Yue exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

"Alright, stop being shocked, let's get going."

The Illusion Venerable made a joke, then ordered his men to open the hatch of the floating warship and took the lead, with Xia Yan, Yun Xin Yue, Shang Buyu and the others quickly following behind.

Meanwhile, Wen Fengxiang, Zhang Zhengdao, Shang Daoming, and others led the Mystic Xia Imperial Family, the Righteous Qi Sect, and the powerful figures under the Shang Family, transforming into streaks of light and surrounding Xia Yan and the others as they surged into Pearl City.

After entering Pearl City, the extravagant Mystic Xia Imperial Family bought a building to serve as residences for their people.

Under the protection of the Illusion Venerable, Xia Yan and her group arrived at a large and luxurious teahouse.

Generally speaking, in the Eastern Luo Continent, many teahouses in the cities are established with the participation of local martial arts associations, or at the very least, they are related to some large aristocratic families or sects.

Therefore, teahouses often became places where martial artists would connect, gather information, and exchange intelligence.

At this moment, Xia Yan and her group deliberately sat in the main hall of the teahouse, sifting through the chaotic and noisy environment to extract some useful information.

"Legend has it that within those ruins lies the Thunder Emperor Sword, the Emperor Artifacts of the Thunder Martial Emperor, a top-tier figure even during the mythical era!"

"Hmph, what's a mere Emperor Artifacts? I received word from a direct descendant of the Northern Di Zhang Family that the Void Mystic Thunder Sutra, an Emperor-level Martial Dao Technique created by the Thunder Emperor, is also within those ruins!"

An old man stroked his beard, beaming with pride and self-satisfaction.

"What?! There's even Emperor Scriptures? That's a supreme cultivation technique capable of revitalizing an entire clan!"

The onlookers were immediately shocked, feeling that the trip was worthwhile, and even secretly thinking about how to find the Emperor Artifacts and Emperor Scriptures after the Thunder Emperor Relic officially opened, so as to make a name for themselves.

"Hmph, what do Emperor Artifacts and Emperor Scriptures have to do with you bunch of trash who're at most Great Martial Master?"

A young-looking man carrying a gleaming silver spear swept his gaze coldly around the crowd, saying in a threatening tone, " In Pearl City today, there are at least two dozen Martial Venerable experts just in name only. Don't get any ideas, or you'll face dire consequences!"

These words immediately enraged everyone present!

"Fart!"

"Who do you think you are, daring to look down on the heroes present here!"

"I am Zhang Yi of the Northern Di Zhang Family!"

The man said coldly with an arrogant expression.

Upon hearing this name, most people immediately back down.

Putting aside the fact that Zhang Yi himself is Martial Grandmaster, his very identity as a member of the Northern Di Zhang Family is enough to make people wary.

You should know that the Northern Di Zhang Family is a powerful and influential family with a Martial Venerable expert in charge!

"Oh, so it's Master Zhang. I've long admired your name. Sorry to have disturbed you earlier..."

"Everyone, let's go drink somewhere else..."

Many cowards tried to back down.

However, Pearl City is now a place teeming with hidden talents, so how could a mere Martial Grandmaster be allowed to show off?

"Sandy!"

An old man slammed his hand on the table, stood up abruptly, and said coldly, "I am Liu Bingzun. Others may fear your Zhang family, but I do not. Zhang Yi, you brat, if you kneel down and beg for mercy today, I might spare your life. But if you dare to glare at me, I will kill you!"

Before the words were even finished, snow began to fall throughout the teahouse, and the tables, chairs, and floor started to freeze.

"Liu Bingzun, I feel like I've heard that name before?"

"Legend has it that in the Ice Mountain County of the Great Xuan Kingdom, there is a sect called the Ice Snow Saint Sect. The sect leader is King Rank Martial Venerable, known as the Ice Venerable, and his name is something like Liu..."

"It's actually the Ice Venerable!"

"That Zhang Yi really got what he deserved – he tried to show off but got struck by lightning!"

"Let's see how Zhang Yi gets out of this!"
