Tianqi Imperial City, on the official road!
A luxurious carriage, engraved with the insignia of the North Li Imperial Family, traveled through the night under the cover of darkness.
It was Xiao Cheng Xuan's carriage.
This journey was to quell the unrest in the Southwest Road, bringing the Southwest Road under the control of the Imperial Family.
Xiao Cheng Xuan understood.
His father had only given him a single order.
He had not sent any army or guards.
Not even a single martial arts master from the Imperial Court's Dark River or Shadow Sect.
This meant.
His father wanted him to conquer the Southwest Road with his own abilities.
It was undoubtedly a test.
Of course, Xiao Cheng Xuan remained composed.
This was a situation destined to happen in the original plot.
If he hadn't prepared in advance, then his life as a transmigrator would be a complete waste.
"Your Highness, on this journey to the Southwest, if there is an opportunity, I would like to have the Madam hide and find safety in the remote areas of the Southwest."
Outside the carriage, a man completely shrouded in black robes.
His entire being seemed to blend seamlessly with the darkness, as he spoke to Xiao Cheng Xuan.
It was Ye Yu, the Pillar State General who Xiao Cheng Xuan had saved five years ago.
Time is forgetful!
Years had passed since the Ye Family Massacre, and the Ye Mansion had faded from everyone's memories.
Even those who remembered, dared not speak of this taboo topic.
Under Xiao Cheng Xuan's support, Ye Yu.
Had broken through to the Fuyuan Realm, becoming a great Daoxiao Realm Sword Immortal!
In return for the kindness.
Ye Yu willingly became Xiao Cheng Xuan's shadow in the dark, codenamed "Blood Shadow".
He used disguise and a different identity to serve Xiao Cheng Xuan.
As for Ye Yu's wife.
She lived in Xiao Cheng Xuan's secret realm space.
"It's alright, I have good news. On this trip to the Southwest Road, if we're lucky, you will have the chance to see her!"
Xiao Cheng Xuan did not refuse.
After all these years, Ye Yu's wife had hidden in the remote areas of the Southwest.
Even the Hundred Knowledge Hall would not be able to find any information about her.
Hearing Xiao Cheng Xuan's words, Ye Yu was immediately excited, and it took a lot of effort for him to calm down.
"Blood Shadow thanks Your Highness for your grace. This great kindness, I will never forget."
"No need for formalities. Have you finished all the tasks I assigned you?"
Hearing the question, Ye Yu replied:
"Your Highness, everything has been prepared. It's all thanks to the fake death pill you provided, everything is now watertight."
"This time, I believe we will bring absolute surprise to the two families of the Southwest Road."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cheng Xuan was very satisfied.
He trusted Ye Yu's abilities.
Suddenly.
Xiao Cheng Xuan's eyes suddenly turned as sharp as a hawk's.
"Whoa～"
"Blood Shadow" was startled, he pulled on the reins, the horse's hooves rose high, then landed, kicking up dust!
Ahead of the carriage, a figure stood gracefully.
The figure stood there.
As if the entire world was under his control.
Space was cut off, isolated from the outside world.
Black-robed Ye Yu stood up, his eyes sharpened as he stared at the figure in front, his whole body tense, ready to attack at any moment.
His Highness had been kind to the Ye Family.
Even if he died, he couldn't let His Highness get hurt.
"Hahaha, don't be nervous, Little Cheng Xuan, I'm here to ask you one question, are you willing to join the School and become my closed disciple?"
The person was naturally Li Changsheng.
Xiao Cheng Xuan also lifted the carriage curtain.
He walked out and stood on the carriage, bowing, he said:
"This King has met the Master. But I'm not interested in joining the School, please return, Master."
Xiao Cheng Xuan politely declined Li Changsheng.
To be honest, if he hadn't had the Devouring the Stars Technique.
Becoming Li Changsheng's disciple would have been a good choice.
After all, in this age where the Four Extreme Realms were closed and the Heavenly Evil Immortals did not appear.
Li Changsheng was indeed undeniably the strongest in the world.
However, he now had the Devouring the Stars Technique, a path to the Dao.
Li Changsheng had lost his qualification to be his master.
Hearing this, Li Changsheng was stunned.
In this world, countless princes, generals, geniuses, and freaks wanted to become his disciple but had no way to do so.
But this was the first time he had taken the initiative to take a disciple, only to be rejected?
However, Li Changsheng's eyes were still filled with excitement and enthusiasm as he looked at Xiao Cheng Xuan.
As if he were looking at an unpolished, peerless jade.
"You are not born with a Martial Vein, nor are you born with a Celestial Vein, your innate talent is a Divine Vein!"
Li Changsheng suddenly remembered what his master had told him.
In this world, those born with a Martial Vein were already one in a million.
Their cultivation of martial arts was like having divine assistance, destined to become Sword Immortals, Dao Immortals, or Gun Immortals.
But, above the Martial Vein.
There was the Celestial Vein.
The Celestial Vein cultivates at a rate several times faster than the innate Martial Vein!
Destined to become immortals above the Divine Wandering Xuan Realm!
And the Celestial Vein is not the limit.
In this world, there are those who are born of the earth, possessing the great fortune of the ancient times.
They are destined to have no limitations on the path of martial arts, cultivating casually, they can break through the ordinary realm, wandering outside the Divine Wandering Xuan Realm, becoming immortals and deities.
These people are called "Innate Martial God Vein"!
Master had said that the Martial Vein was not rare, and a couple of Celestial Veins had appeared, but the Divine Vein, perhaps it was just a mythical legend!
But now, he had seen it.
A living, Divine Vein!
"Little Cheng Xuan, what will it take for you to be willing to become my disciple?"
Facing Li Changsheng's question, Xiao Cheng Xuan smiled, then returned to the carriage.
With a thought of his mental energy, the surrounding space confinement dissipated.
The carriage sped away.
Leaving only Xiao Cheng Xuan's words: "Master, if you want me to join the School, you will have to bring the "Immortal Scripture" and the "Great Tung Technique" for me to have a look!"
The carriage disappeared at the end of the official road.
Only Li Changsheng was left standing there in astonishment.
How could Xiao Cheng Xuan know about the "Immortal Scripture" and the "Great Tung Technique"?
"Master, what happened?"
At that moment, Qi Tianchen, in a white robe, arrived late, just in time to see the carriage disappear into the distance.
"What else could it be! Qi Tianchen, don't even think about taking a disciple on behalf of the Master!"
"If you want to make this Prince join Yellow Dragon Mountain, you'd better enshrine him in the ancestor's shrine of your Yellow Dragon Mountain, and see if he'll agree!"
Li Changsheng left with a dark face.
Leaving Qi Tianchen to stand in the wind, confused.
His heart was shocked.
Li Changsheng, had actually been rejected by the Prince!
