After the ceremony ended, the people from the Southern Phoenix Clan departed leaving only the holy maidens as well as the guards the Southern Phoenix Clan arranged for Nanfeng Yunxi. Naturally, Qin Wentian, Jun Mengchen and Purgatory were here as well.

Nanfeng Yunxi?s parents departed after leaving some instructions. After Nanfeng Yunxi became the Holy Successor, she was no longer just the pearl in their hands. She had to depend on herself to create her own future, becoming someone worthy of the title – Master of the Jiyue Palace.

Nanfeng Yunxi smiled at the holy maidens around her, “In the future, Yunxi would have to depend on sisters for help.”

“Yunxi, I will do my best to cultivate and won?t lose out to you.” Nanfeng Aoxue was still brooding over her failure to become the Holy Successor. She was the strongest person among the holy maidens of this generation but in the end, Nanfeng Yunxi who had a lower cultivation base actually became the Holy Successor.

“In that case, sister Aoxue would really have to work hard.” Nanfeng Yunxi didn?t mind it as she smiled. Staring at the situation, Qin Wentian felt a little unhappy at Nanfeng Aoxue?s actions. She was already defeated, yet she was still so arrogant. If Nanfeng Yunxi was as petty as her, she had plenty of ways to make life miserable for Nanfeng Aoxue.

“Yunxi there?s no need for you to be so polite. From now on, all the sisters here will follow your command, and we still need you to take care of us.” Nanfeng Shengge?s gentle voice rang out, she was someone who knew how to smooth away the tension.

Nanfeng Yunxi smiled, “I wish to go out on a trip. Shengge, accompany me along.”

“Mhm, okay.” Nanfeng Shengge smiled and nodded. Nanfeng Yunxi walked towards her guards and gave a command. After which, it was determined that three powerful experts would escort her on this trip.

After that, Nanfeng Yunxi walked over to Qin Wentian?s side, “Shall we go?”

“Are we leaving just like that? You just took over the Jiyue Palace.” Qin Wentian asked.

“My matters are concluded, it?s time to finish yours.” Nanfeng Yunxi smiled as she stepped out. Nanfeng Shengge walked over and winked at Qin Wentian, before following behind Nanfeng Yunxi.

Qin Wentian shrugged, “Let?s go.”

After speaking, the three of them also followed after Nanfeng Yunxi, leaving behind the other holy maidens who were in a state of bewilderment. What was Nanfeng Yunxi helping Qin Wentian with?

Could it be that when Qin Wentian agreed to help Nanfeng Yunxi to become the Holy Successor, the two of them came to an agreement about something? They were all extremely curious in their hearts but they had no way to know. Nanfeng Yunxi only chose Nanfeng Shengge for this.

“Sister Aoxue, you cannot talk to Yunxi in this way in the future. After all, we are her dao protectors. If you continue this way, Yunxi could make things difficult for you if she so chooses, and you won?t be able to receive much cultivation resources. If you are truly sincere in surpassing her, just put in effort in your cultivation.” Nanfeng Qingruo smiled. She didn?t wait for Nanfeng Aoxue to reply before turning around and departing.

“Sure, it?s not so easy to accept a change of status, following the logic of the winner becomes king and the losers are vilified. But our Southern Phoenix Clan has used this method through countless years to select our geniuses. Since you?ve been defeated, just accept that as a fact. Don?t forget to learn a lesson from the mistakes of your past.” Nanfeng Qingruo?s voice drifted through the air, causing Nanfeng Aoxue to furrow her brows. The other holy maidens also sighed in their hearts.

Nanfeng Qingruo?s words weren?t wrong. It?s not so easy to accept the change of status, especially now that they weren?t holy maidens, but were dao protectors of the Holy Successor. Who asked them to fail the trial?

Right now on a pathway in the Southern Phoenix Immortal City, a group of extraordinary individuals could be seen walking, as their presence attracted plenty of attention.

“Where are we going?” Qin Wentian asked.

“In the Southern Region of the immortal realms, there?s a place named the God Hand Mountain Manor. The master of the mountain manor is an immortal emperor character who is extremely skilled in archery. His name is Emperor Yu, and he is someone who rarely cares about things happening in the immortal realms, choosing to roam the world by himself and to cultivate alone. He is quite a fascinating character and stands aloof from worldly affairs. The Mountain Manor accepted several followers and Emperor Yu guided many cultivators who were proficient in archery, yet he didn?t accept any disciples. Many in the immortal realms are indebted to him and he is known to all as a kindly old man. And because his cultivation base was so high, there would rarely be people who want to disturb his peace.”

Nanfeng Yunxi slowly spoke. “This time, our destination is precisely the God Hand Mountain Manor.”

“God Hand Mountain Manor…” Qin Wentian mumbled. God?s Hand, God Hand Mountain Manor. Was this a coincidence? Seems like this was not the case. The Emperor Yu of the God Hand Mountain Manor most probably had a very deep connection to Ancient Emperor Yi.

Nanfeng Shengge was a little puzzled. Her beautiful eyes glanced at Qin Wentian and Nanfeng Yunxi. What were they going to the God Hand Mountain Manor for?

However, Qin Wentian naturally understood that the complete God?s Hand was most likely hidden in the God Hand Mountain Manor.

“The Phoenix Ancestor told me that everyone only believed that Ancient Emperor Yi was proficient in God?s Hand. Because God?s Hand is able to evolve all kinds of energy, it actually hid the other abilities of Emperor Yi. In fact, when Emperor Yi was young, he was extremely skilled in archery.” Nanfeng Yunxi transmitted her voice to Qin Wentian, her words causing his eyes to flash. The Phoenix Ancestor was as expected of a old monster that had lived for countless years, she even knew about this. Most likely, Emperor Yi also lived in the Southern Regions of the immortal realms in the past.

At this moment, at a place a few hundred miles away from Qin Wentian and Nanfeng Yunxi, in an inn of the Southern Phoenix City, a handsome and extraordinary young man was sitting there cross-legged with his eyes closed. Right now, a surge of formless energy drifted from his ears, transforming into sound waves and granting him the ability to listen to all sounds no matter how low the volume was, from all directions.

In fact, golden buddhist runes could be seen shimmering beside his ears. The eyes of this young man opened, gleaming with a strange light. In the depths of his eyes, a faint smile could also be seen.

“God?s Hand, God Hand Mountain Manor; Emperor Yi, Emperor Yu. Who would have thought.” That young man mumbled. After which he spoke, “Come here.”

As the sound of his voice faded away, a silhouette instantly arrived at the courtyard, staring at the young man as he bowed low, “Young Master Ziyu.”

So it turned out that this young man was none other than Jiang Ziyu, a descendant of one of the three great ancient powers of the Southern Region, the Jiang Clan. He could stand equal to Qin Wentian in combat and was extremely powerful and unfathomable.

“Inform the clan that Emperor Yu has a connection with Ancient Emperor Yi. The true location of the secret art of Ancient Emperor Yi, has a very high possibility that it?s being hidden inside God Hand Mountain Manor.” Jiang Ziyu smiled as he commanded.

“Yes sir.” That expert?s eyes flickered, he was also taken aback by this news. To think that young master Ziyu actually was able to obtain such news. When he thought of how powerful Jiang Ziyu is, his heart couldn?t help but to tremble. In the entire Jiang Clan, only a few who were in the Immortal Foundation Realm were able to stand equally with Jiang Ziyu. Jiang Ziyu was one of the most outstanding geniuses born in the Jiang Clan during these hundreds of years. He would definitely have great accomplishments in the future.

Many people only knew that Jiang Ziyu?s vision was powerful, able to peer through all mysteries and illusory things. No one knew about his ears. Only those in the Jiang Clan would understand how powerful exactly the secret arts of the Jiang Clan were.

As that subordinate prepared to depart, Jiang Ziyu suddenly stopped him, “Wait a moment.”

“Does young master have any more orders?” That person asked. He only saw a mysterious smile on Jiang Ziyu?s face, “Help me inform the people of those four great powers that have a dispute with Qin Wentian. Get them to pay some price for this info. And remember, the price must be set high. After they obtain the information, disseminate the info to the other powers in the Southern Regions about this as well.

The eyes of that subordinate flickered, he didn?t understand why Jiang Ziyu wanted him to do this.

“Just do things according to my orders.” Jiang Ziyu waved his hand, no longer bothering with the subordinate. For the things he decided, others merely needed to execute them.

“Yes.” That person retreated, silently musing how ruthless Jiang Ziyu can be. If this is the case, many major powers of the Southern Regions would surely take part. In fact, even external powers like the Violet Emperor and the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor might join in as well.

…

The lands of the Southern Regions in the immortal realms were exceedingly vast. The three main hegemons of this region could be segregated into three – Southern Phoenix Clan, Jiang Clan and Ying Clan. Each of them occupied an area and had a territory under their control. Even though the Southern Phoenix Clan and the Jiang Clan didn?t really ?govern? a majority of the areas away from their central location, those areas were still under their influence. The powers formed in those territories were naturally subservient to one of the three great ancient clans, and their authority and control was vast.

Among these three great powers, the radius of the Ying Clan?s authority was the most vast.

Naturally other than the three great ancient clans, there are also quite a few immortal emperors who had influence in the surrounding areas. After them, were the sects and clans formed by many powerful immortal kings. They were constantly in conflict with each other.

The God Hand Mountain Manor was near the boundary of the territory governed by the Southern Phoenix Clan. However, the three great ancient clans didn?t really have so tight a control over things that were not central to their base of power. In addition, there was also an immortal emperor, Emperor Yu present here. The Southern Phoenix Clan wouldn?t really interfere in how things were run here as long as Emperor Yu?s actions didn?t affect them.

In this location, other than the influence of the God Hand Mountain Manor being the greatest, there were several immortal-king powers here as well.

Qin Wentian and the others soared through the air riding on an immortal weapon at an extremely fast speed. The immortal weapon they were mounted on, was a puppet in the form of a phoenix. It was extremely vivid and life-like, like a real existence. The price of this phoenix puppet was considerably high and it was an immortal king-graded divine weapon. Not only could it be used for flying, it can even attack and provide defense. Only Holy Successors of the Southern Phoenix Clan would be bestowed one.

“The immortal realms are truly vast. How much longer do we need before we can reach there?” Jun Mengchen asked. This place was still considered under the territory of the Southern Phoenix Clan. Despite them travelling using the puppet phoenix, they were not there yet even after such a long time.

“We should be arriving soon according to the map, maybe around one more day of travel.” Nanfeng Yunxi spoke. She turned her head and glanced at Qin Wentian who was currently closing his eyes in cultivation as she silently mused how hard working this fellow was. Geniuses also needed to work hard. If not, even if your talent is high, your accomplishments would be limited.

Because they were hurrying there, Nanfeng Yunxi and the others had no idea that right now, there were several major powers currently also heading to the same destination as them, rushing towards the direction of the God Hand Mountain Manor.

This was something unforeseen. Regardless of Nanfeng Yunxi or Qin Wentian, both of them didn?t expect that Jiang Ziyu had used a divine hearing technique of the buddha?s path, listening in to them from a thousand miles away. In addition, Jiang Ziyu had clearly waited a long time for them to leave the Southern Phoenix Clan!
