Nanxuan City, Teleportation Array

"Whoosh~"

High above the clouds, Jun Wangyou flew forward on his sword.

The strong wind roared in his ears, noisy.

But Jun Wangyou's heart had become strangely calm.

He no longer felt the irritation he had on Lingtian Peak.

He couldn't explain the reason for that inexplicable irritation.

Perhaps it was because his fellow disciples were fighting on the front lines while he, thanks to his privilege, was able to survive safely in the rear.

Or perhaps it was the pressure from everyone in the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land.

They wanted him to cultivate well in the rear, but for what?

Wasn't it because they valued his monstrous talent, hoping he could turn the tide in the future and save the common people from suffering?

Jun Wangyou didn't like this!

He craved freedom, not just physical freedom, but also freedom of the mind.

No one would ever chain him!

"Hoo~"

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, Jun Wangyou opened his eyes, and asked calmly:

"Tata, do you think what I'm doing is right?"

Above Jun Wangyou's head, Master Pagoda lay with his legs crossed, resting his hands behind his head, looking very relaxed.

Master Pagoda was feeling very relaxed at the moment because Jun Wangyou had finally come out for training.

Master Pagoda had actually been worried before.

He worried that Jun Wangyou, protected by the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land, would not get the opportunity to train.

If that happened, the Heavenly Emperor's plan would be ruined.

Master Pagoda was afraid that the Heavenly Emperor would blame him then.

Now, it was good that Jun Wangyou had finally come out for training.

Master Pagoda's hanging heart finally settled.

Hearing Jun Wangyou's question at this moment.

Master Pagoda didn't think much of it and directly said:

"Of course it's right, whatever Master does is right."

These were Master Pagoda's true feelings.

In his eyes, this was all just a game.

A game with Jun Wangyou as the main character.

Jun Wangyou was the protagonist of this game, so naturally, whatever he did was right.

Hearing this answer, Jun Wangyou twitched the corner of his mouth. He shouldn't have asked.

"Sigh, I originally just wanted to cultivate in seclusion, but fate is unpredictable."

Jun Wangyou sighed with emotion.

Above his head, Master Pagoda pouted and thought:

Master, please don't. If you really keep hiding, then I'll be finished.

The man and the pagoda, each with their own thoughts, hurried towards the distance.

Nanxuan City.

One of the famous great cities in the southern part of the Eastern Continent, with many cultivators within its walls.

There was even a large teleportation array that could cross continents, with millions of people passing through daily.

At this moment, outside the city, a young man in white, wearing a bronze mask, was slowly entering the city with the crowd.

Nanxuan City was dominated by three super families, each of which was a behemoth on its own.

It was rumored that within each of these three great families, there was one or several ancestor-level cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

Therefore, most of the time, no one dared to cause trouble in the city.

The line was long, with both cultivators and mortals.

Everyone was quiet, no one cut in line, showing good manners.

After about half an hour, it was finally Jun Wangyou's turn.

In front of the dozens of meters high city gate, two soldiers crossed their halberds.

One soldier, with a cold expression, held a registration book and asked, "Cultivator or mortal?"

"Cultivator." Jun Wangyou said.

"Realm name, pay 10 Low-grade Spirit Stones to enter the city."

"Jun Wangyou, late Foundation Establishment."

Jun Wangyou slightly altered his name and, after paying the Spirit Stones, couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Can mortals enter too? What do they need to pay?"

"Mortals don't need to pay anything, next."

The soldier clearly didn't want to bother with Jun Wangyou.

His expression was stern.

"I see."

Jun Wangyou nodded to himself, and a good impression of the three major families in the city arose within him.

With rules like these, they couldn't be too bad.

Upon entering the city, Jun Wangyou walked directly towards the city center.

He had only one purpose for coming to Nanxuan City: to use the teleportation array to go to the East.

And he had only one purpose for going to the East: to kill someone.

All disciples from the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land who went to participate in the war were chosen by drawing lots.

Fair and just, whoever was drawn went, including the 108 true disciples; no one had special privileges.

Except for Jun Wangyou.

Jun Wangyou hated such privileges!

Because it made him feel that every fellow disciple who died on the battlefield was directly causally related to his privilege.

This placed a heavy burden on Jun Wangyou psychologically.

So, he decided to go all out and participate in the war himself.

Although this went against his principle of cultivating in secret.

It was better than having a clear conscience.

Soon, Jun Wangyou reached the city center.

But as soon as he arrived, he was stunned by the scene before him.

He saw a sea of people, with crowds packed three layers deep and three circles around, surrounding the entire teleportation array.

At a glance, it was dense, with at least hundreds of thousands of people.

At the same time, countless people were shouting and pushing their way in.

"This..."

Jun Wangyou was a bit dumbfounded.

Judging by the situation, he definitely wouldn't be able to get in today.

After observing from the periphery for a while, Jun Wangyou sighed inwardly.

Through the discussions and arguments of the people around him, He finally understood where these people were going.

It turned out that all these people were going to the Central Continent.

Why go to the Central Continent?

To seek refuge, of course.

Of the thirteen states in the Mystic Realm, the Central Continent was the strongest.

If one were to ask where in the Mystic Realm was relatively safe now, it would undoubtedly be the Central Continent.

"When disaster strikes, everyone flees for themselves. Who would have thought that the land beneath their feet once nurtured them, that it was their root?"

Jun Wangyou shook his head and turned to leave.

And not long after Jun Wangyou left.

A majestic figure descended from the sky, looking at the crowd and coldly stating:

"By joint decree of the three major families, the teleportation array, except for those going to the East, Central, and West, will be completely shut down!"

As soon as this was said, the crowd erupted in thunderous clamor.

"What's going on? What do the three major families want?"

"Can't you see? They don't want us to leave, they want us to die with them, these fools!"

"Insolence! I am the son of the Myriad Sword Sect Master! Order you to open the teleportation array! You are not qualified to shut it down!"

"..."

The crowd erupted in dissatisfaction, and gradually began to stir.

The commotion of hundreds of thousands of cultivators was truly terrifying.

But facing this scene, the majestic figure in the sky directly unleashed a sword energy.

The sword energy landed in the crowd, and in an instant, countless people were directly cut in half.

The crowd fell silent, and no one dared to make a sound again.

Everyone looked up at the sky with extremely fearful eyes.

At this moment, a powerful voice echoed from a luxurious mansion in Nanxuan City.

"Anyone who dares to make noise again will be executed without mercy. In this Nanxuan City, even if you are the King of Heaven, you have to lie down for me!"

"Hmph! What right do a bunch of cowards afraid of death have to clamor."

Yuelai Tavern.

The tavern had 5 floors, with a hollow space in the middle, unobstructed.

One could see the first floor from the fifth floor.

The tavern gathered people from all walks of life, with various individuals chatting and discussing within its walls.

However, at this moment, most of the conversations were about the three battlefields.

Jun Wangyou was sitting on the second floor, drinking his wine, listening to the noisy chatter in the tavern, and silently gathering the information he wanted.

"Did you hear? Taixuan City, the largest city in the east, has already been breached by the demon-monster allied forces. All the tens of millions of people in the city were slaughtered, truly a sea of blood."

"Nonsense! How come I heard that Taixuan City had a peerless expert who made the demon-monster allied forces flee in panic?"

"Oh, you're both wrong. What I heard was that Taixuan City has already surrendered to the demon-monster allied forces..."

"..."

Listening to these various rumors, Jun Wangyou smiled helplessly.

In this situation, obtaining the correct information he wanted was not easy at all.

Just then, Jun Wangyou, who was forcing a smile, suddenly shifted his gaze.

His attention was caught by a young man wearing a blue brocade robe.

The young man was currently moving among the tables of guests.

He was constantly asking something.

Jun Wangyou listened carefully, and then his mouth twitched.

The young man was actually asking:

"Brother, are you going east?"

"Big brother, are you going east to get rich?"

"Brother, let's go together and achieve great things in the east!"

"Miss, are you going east? Big brother will protect you."

As expected, the responses he received were all curses.

The most frequent response was: "Are you an idiot? Only an idiot would go east to die now."
