If it weren’t for the Land of Descent, Jing Yan might not have been able to successfully harmonize and step into the Divine Lord Realm.
The Land of Descent was created by the All Paths Venerable. It can be said that without the All Paths Venerable, Jing Yan might still be a Martial Artist in the Nine Tripods Main God Realm.
One must not forget the source of their blessings. Jing Yan cannot ignore this genuine grace just because the All Paths Venerable has long passed away. Being grateful and repaying kindness is in Jing Yan’s nature and character. Since Jing Yan was in the All Paths World this ti, it was only natural to pay more attention to the All Paths Sacred Land, which was established by the All Paths Venerable.
Gao Feng and Jing Dongxue had no objections to what Jing Yan said. They completely listened to Jing Yan. Moreover, being with Jing Yan ant that there was no difference between the All Paths World and the Human Territory.
Ti passed day by day,
and the clamor of Tanshan City gradually cald down under the control of City Lord Zhao Tiani. A new structure of city powers was thodically established.
The past top families, the Mo Family and the Liu Family, quietly withdrew from the stage. Almost all the nurous enterprises they controlled were divided up.
However, for the countless descendants of these two families, their luck was already considered good. If it weren’t for City Lord Zhao Tiani’s diation, very few mbers of these two families might have survived. Even though they lost ninety-nine percent of their wealth, at least most of their lives could continue.
Not long after, Zhao Tiani also instructed Chief Manager Chi Lin of the City Lord Mansion to send a batch of resources to Jing Yan.
This was a considerable amount of resources, in Jing Yan’s view.
Initially, Jing Yan did not intend to take a share from the division of the Mo Family and Liu Family’s assets. However, since the gift was sent, Jing Yan naturally wouldn’t refuse. Even at Jing Yan’s level, having more resources was never an issue.
Moreover, Jing Yan definitely needed resources. Though he couldn’t use ordinary resources himself, they were needed by Gao Feng and Jing Dongxue, and in the future, more people close to him would ascend to the God Realm and need them too.
Zhao Tiani might not have sent these resources to Jing Yan to curry favor, but rather to follow the rules.
The major powers of Tanshan City, from the forces dividing the Mo Family and Liu Family’s assets, owed this opportunity to Jing Yan. Therefore, they raised no objections to Jing Yan taking a slice of this big cake, nor did they dare to object.
They knew well that if they angered the powerful figure nad Jing Yan residing in the Seven Treasures Restaurant, their families might follow in the footsteps of the Mo Family and Liu Family.
Enjoying sole benefit was delightful, but reality had to be considered. Their strength was far from enough to enjoy it in front of Jing Yan.
During this ti, both Gao Feng and Jing Dongxue were diligently cultivating. With the resources provided by Jing Yan, their cultivation speed was fast. Their innate martial talent was not low, and Jing Yan could provide any resources needed for their cultivation. Under such circumstances, it was difficult for them to cultivate slowly.
In the blink of an eye, several months had passed.
The City Lord Mansion of Tanshan City!
On this day, a woman dressed in a green long skirt ca to the City Lord. Her na was Liu Lixue.
Zhao Tiani, upon hearing that Liu Lixue had arrived, imdiately t her.
"Junior Sister, why are you here?" Zhao Tiani imdiately asked upon seeing Liu Lixue.
Liu Lixue was her junior sister. Both of them were the most outstanding disciples of the Divine Woman Sect. Liu Lixue’s sudden arrival was unannounced, so Zhao Tiani was sowhat surprised.
"Senior Sister, the Duocheng Battle is about to begin, approximately a month from now. The Sect Master and others are also preparing to head to Black Sun City. I set off a few days early and decided to drop by Tanshan City to see you," Liu Lixue said, waving her hand wearily.
"The Duocheng Battle is starting in a month? Why so soon? Isn’t it still years away from the agreed ti?" Zhao Tiani was slightly taken aback.
"The originally agreed ti was seven years later. But those despicable Ghost Leaf Sect people suddenly want to advance it." Liu Lixue bit her lip.
This Duocheng Battle occurs once every ten thousand years. The main contenders are the Divine Woman Sect and the Ghost Leaf Sect.
The significance of the Duocheng Battle is the territorial contest between the two sects. In every Duocheng Battle, one of the sects, either the Divine Woman Sect or the Ghost Leaf Sect, will lose control of one of its cities.
Simply put, the Duocheng Battle is a wager between the two sects, where they gamble with one of their cities. The losing side loses a city, while the winning side gains a new city.
This Duocheng Battle hasn’t existed for long, starting about ninety thousand years ago. Ninety thousand years ago, in a bid for territory, the Divine Woman Sect and the Ghost Leaf Sect had a great battle with heavy casualties. To prevent sect destruction, they established the more refined territorial dispute known as the Duocheng Battle.
"Senior Sister, the Ghost Leaf Sect is truly despicable and shaless."
"Initially, we didn’t know why the Ghost Leaf Sect wanted to bring the ti forward. The Sect Master agreed after consideration, but just after we agreed, a serious issue arose," Liu Lixue continued.
"What happened?" Zhao Tiani asked with a frown.
"No sooner had we agreed on the new Duocheng Battle ti than Emperor San Shi sent a ssage to the Sect Master, claiming he was injured and couldn’t represent the Divine Woman Sect in this battle," Liu Lixue stomped her foot angrily.
"What?" Zhao Tiani’s expression changed, saying, "Didn’t Emperor San Shi agree long ago to represent our Divine Woman Sect in the Duocheng Battle? Why would he suddenly back out?"
"Isn’t it obvious? The Ghost Leaf Sect suddenly advancing the Duocheng Battle, and right after we agreed, Emperor San Shi said he couldn’t represent the Divine Woman Sect. Hmph, it’s certain the Ghost Leaf Sect promised Emperor San Shi greater benefits. They’re nothing but hypocrites!" Liu Lixue angrily exclaid.
"What do we do about the Duocheng Battle? There’s only one month left before it starts. Where can we find an Emperor-level strong combatant to represent the Divine Woman Sect in such a short ti? Even if we could find such a strong combatant, ti is too short," Zhao Tiani said anxiously.
"The Ghost Leaf Sect planned for this. There’s no way; the Sect Master has decided to take matters into her own hands!" Liu Lixue said.
"The Sect Master personally taking action?" Zhao Tiani’s brows did not relax.
There’s really no choice but for the Sect Master to personally participate in the Duocheng Battle. However, although the Sect Master of the Divine Woman Sect is an Emperor-level powerhouse, hoping to win in the Duocheng Battle is not very realistic. The combatant found by the Ghost Leaf Sect for the Duocheng Battle is very powerful, renowned even among Emperor God Masters.
