Moving through the busy streets of the capital city, Xuan Hao soon saw that the number of people around him began decreasing before everyone except for a few weaker people around the Foundation Establishnt Realm were left on the street.
Even without knowing where he was being led, Xuan Hao understood that it should be sowhere quiet and far away from any of the normal crowded streets that looked like they were everywhere inside the capital city upon first passing through the massive gates.
"We are here. Follow ."
Coming to a stop in front of a small inn after close to half an hour of walking, Elder Scarlet Fla opened the door leading inside the inn before signalling for him to follow.
"…"
Standing in front of the inn without entering imdiately, Xuan Hao could not help feeling curious about what Elder Scarlet Fla wanted from him. Even without entering the inn, he could still feel several powerful auras that had all reached the Domain Lord Realm. The strongest among them had even reached the Sixth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm and was rather close to breaking through to the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm.
Even inside the Sky Empire, such a gathering of experts could normally not be found outside of the largest factions and even then, it would not be easy to gather so many Domain Lord Realm Experts together!
Creak~!
Stepping onto the wooden steps leading inside the rather high up door to the inn, Xuan Hao stepped inside before curiously inspecting the group of Domain Lord Realm Experts he had sensed from outside the inn.
This… There are more people in here than I expected…
After inspecting the group of people, Xuan Hao was shocked to discover that other than the seven Domain Lord Realm Experts that were sitting around inside the inn, there was also close to twenty or so Peak Nascent Soul Realm Experts sitting around the inn in small groups chatting with each other.
Because he had focused most of his attention on the powerful aura belonging to the Domain Lord Realm Experts and had not used his divine sense to investigate the situation inside the inn earlier, he had accidently ended up ignoring the large number of weaker Nascent Soul Realm Experts that were also present inside the inn.
Recognizing most of the Domain Lord Realm Experts present as the leaders of different sects inside the Sky Empire, Xuan Hao turned to look towards Elder Scarlet Fla standing beside him with a questioning look on his face. Wanting to find out for what reason he had brought him to this rather large gathering of powerful experts from different sect all across the Sky Empire.
"Elder Scarlet Fla, who is this? Soone new you found?"
Before Elder Scarlet Fla had a chance to answer Xuan Hao's questioning look, one of the Domain Lord Realm Experts inside the inn walked over and asked Elder Scarlet Fla with a small smile on his face as he curious looked towards Xuan Hao standing a few ters behind him.
"Ah, senior here is also here for the sect alliance eting next week and I thought it would be a good idea to also invite him to join us…"
"I see- Wait, Senior!?"
Nodding his head at first as he listened to what Elder Scarlet Fla said, the Domain Lord that had just asked him soon froze as a shocked expression appeared on his face as he heard how Elder Scarlet Fla addressed Xuan Hao.
Obviously, Elder Scarlet Fla had already reached the Fourth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm and could be considered to have reached the middle stage of the Domain Lord Realm. For him to address soone as senior, the other party had to at least have reached the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm!
With this in mind, it was obvious why the Domain Lord Realm Expert had a shocked expression on his face. After all, the strongest person currently present was only soone in the Sixth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm.
Although there still was a difference in strength between Domain Lords in the fourth and the sixth stage of the realm. The difference was nowhere near what it was between soone in the Sixth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm and soone in the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm!
The main reason for this, was that there was that one's strength would experience a rapid period of growth after breaking through from the third to the fourth stage of the Domain Lord Realm and when breaking through from the sixth to the seventh stage of the Domain Lord Realm…
"Senior? Soone in the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm actually showed up!?"
"Haha, with the support of a Seventh Stage Domain Lord, we are certain to do better in the upcoming eting! Even the Sky Empire won't be able to ignore us!"
"But… What sect is this senior from? I don't seem to have seen him before…"
Following what the Domain Lord Realm Expert who walked up said and also hearing the way Elder Scarlet Fla addressed Xuan Hao, the rest of the people sitting around chatting with each other inside the inn quickly turned their attention towards Xuan Hao before all of them began trying to figure out which sect he was from.
"Elder Water Sparrow, let's talk about this with the others in the back room."
Seeing that everyone had focused their attention on them following what both he himself and Elder Water Sparrow said, Elder Scarlet Fla said this while signalling for both Xuan Hao and the other Domain Lord Realm Experts to follow him as he made his way towards a large empty room located in the back of the inn.
…
"So… Elder Scarlet Fla, care to explain to us now?"
Sitting down around a small table at the centre of the room, the Sixth Stage Domain Lord was the first to step forward and ask Elder Scarlet Fla about Xuan Hao. Given that he had been the strongest person present just a few mont ago, he was obviously curious about the person Elder Scarlet Fla had brought back with him.
Other than this, different from the other Domain Lords present who thought Xuan Hao was soone in the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm, he could clearly feel that Xuan Hao was not just soone in the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm. After all, he himself had already taken a step into the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm and was not too far away from reaching it.
If Xuan Hao was really soone in the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm, he would have been able to see through his strength, yet he could not… This made it obvious to him that Xuan Hao should at least be soone in the Eighth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm!
Eighth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm… Even in the entire Sky Empire, such an expert could be considered to stand at the peak among Domain Lord Realm Experts. Only Ninth Stage Domain Lords and those old people just a single step away from the Soul Ascension Realm stood above them!
"Actually, there isn't much to explain, I just happened to run into senior when I was walking around the southern gate and found out that he had also co here for the sect alliance eting. Hearing this, I thought it would be a good idea to invite him over and ask him to join us for the upcoming eting. After all, the more Domain Lords we have, the better.
Ehm… Senior, if you don't mind asking, what sect are you from and what is your na… It seems like I forgot to ask you about this earlier on our way to the inn due to feeling excited at the prospect of having another Domain Lord join us for the upcoming sect alliance eting…"
Feeling a bit awkward as he suddenly realized that he had not really asked Xuan Hao about his na or what sect he was from, Elder Scarlet Fla turned towards Xuan Hao as he waited for him to introduce himself. Wondering about what sect he was from like the rest of the Domain Lord Realm Experts.
"I'm a grand elder of the Star Shattering Sect, you can just call Elder Xuan."
Not seeing any reason to hide his identity from the group of Domain Lord Realm Experts in front of him, as they looked like they wanted him to join their group for sothing regarding the upcoming sect alliance eting that the imperial family of the Sky Empire had planned out, Xuan Hao turned towards Elder Scarlet Fla after introducing himself.
"So… What did you bring here for?"
Narrowing his eyes as he said this, Xuan Hao stared directly at Elder Scarlet Fla. Wanting to find out just what this person wanted from him and how it was related to the upcoming sect alliance eting.
