Budur Ancient Clan, Great Hall.
“After I leave, Elder Qing Tian will take over my role as Great Elder for the time being. I will leave a Spiritual Clone behind. If there is an urgent matter, report it directly, and I will return as soon as possible,” Qing Yanjing said.
In the Great Hall, many Elders of the Budur Ancient Clan were gathered., Qing Yanjing’s gaze swept through the crowd and landed on Xuan Guang and Mo Tong.
She then said nonchalantly, “I hope that nothing untoward will happen in the Budur Ancient Clan while I am away. Otherwise, I will severely punish those behind it!”
Xuan Guang and Mo Tong hurriedly nodded their heads under her watchful gaze, as they could hear the cold hint in her tone. If they stirred trouble in the Budur Ancient Clan while she was away, Qing Yanjing would not hesitate to punish them severely!
As Mu Chen stood beside Qing Yanjing, he looked at the elders calmly. These arrogant elders were as meek as sheep before Qing Yanjing had come to power.
Behind Xuan Guang and Mo Tong, Mu Chen also saw Xuan Luo and Mo Xin, who were the two supreme talents of the Budur Ancient Clan. But, at this time, the pair were huddled at the back of the crowd, not daring to make eye contact with Mu Chen.
After all, they both knew what was good for them. They also were aware that Mu Chen was beyond their reach. In the past, by virtue of their status, they could be condescending towards Mu Chen, as he was a perpetrator.
Before, even if Mu Chen stepped into the rank of Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign, they were not afraid, as they had the powerful background of the Budur Ancient Clan!
But now, everything was different. After Qing Yanjing’s ascension to the position of Great Elder, Mu Chen had the advantage in terms of background. Thus, they did not dare provoke Mu Chen.
“How long will the Great Elder be gone? Now that you have just ascended, I am afraid that it is not appropriate for you to leave for too long.” Elder Qing Tian stepped forward and asked the question carefully.
The other elders of the Qing lineage also looked at Qing Yanjing. They were obviously afraid that she would leave for decades, like she had done in the past.
They were worried that she would even leave the Budur Ancient Clan behind entirely. If that happened, the Xuan and Mo lineages would inevitably cause trouble in the Budur Ancient Clan.
Qing Yanjing knew Qing Tian’s meaning, so she immediately smiled and said, “Rest assured, I know what I’m doing. I will always pay attention to the happenings in the clan.”
Hearing this, they all heaved sighs of relief. Qing Yanjing was more mature now, no longer being as free-spirited as she was in the past. Otherwise, they would be at a loss for what to do.
“In that case, we wish you the best on your journey,” Elder Qing Tian said, while the elders all bowed respectfully.
Qing Yanjing nodded gently, and with a wave of her hand, a spiritual light surged out. The light enveloped her and Mu Chen before both of them vanished in the blink of an eye. The two then appeared outside a Transfer Spiritual Array of the Budur Ancient Clan.
“Aunt Jing!” Ling Xi immediately approached them, taking hold of Qing Yanjing’s arm affectionately. A bright and innocent smile surfaced on her usually calm face.
“Mistress.” Long Xiang bowed.
Qing Yanjing pulled at Lingxi’s hand as she teased, “You still act just like a little girl.”
She then smiled at Long Xiang and said, “We are old acquaintances, so you don’t have to be so courteous.”
However, Long Xiang still shook his head persistently. Seeing this, Qing Yanjing looked at Mu Chen and said, “During the month that you were cultivating, I asked Long Xiang to search for some information. The Ceremony of Audience with the Lord will take place in the Hundred Spirit Continent soon. All of the forces of that land will then head to the Hundred Spirit City. I think your father will be there too, so let’s go find him.”
The land where the Northern Spiritual Realm was located was known as the Hundred Spirit Continent. When Mu Chen left, Mu Feng had established the Northern Spiritual Alliance. It was considered to be a moderate force, so it was required to attend the Ceremony of Audience with the Lord.
Mu Chen nodded with a smile and did not raise any objection. He just said excitedly, “Let’s go then.”
The Hundred Spirit Continent was located in the northwest region of the Great Thousand World. It was among the less famous continents and was basically insignificant compared to a supercontinent like the Tianluo Continent.
There was a great distance between the Budur Continent, which was where the Budur Ancient Clan was located, and the Hundred Spirit Continent. Originally, with Qing Yanjing’s strength, if someone crushed the spiritual seal that she had refined while the person was within the Hundred Spirit Continent, she would be able to trace it and tear the space to reach the person directly. However, she wasn’t prepared for to do so now.
However, it was still effortless for Qing Yanjing to make the journey. As she was a Divine Ancestral Master, she could construct a Transfer Spiritual Array with her eyes closed and both hands tied behind her back!
Under her lead, Mu Chen and the other two simply did not need to go to a different continent at all, as it was unnecessary to look for transports across the continent. Thus, Qing Yanjing constructed a temporary long-distance Transfer Spiritual Array, and they followed the transmission route to reach another continent directly.
At this speed, they were shuttling through hundreds of continents in just 10 days! They were now gradually approaching the northwest region of the Great Thousand World. This was quite fast, as if it were others, the same journey would take months, not days!
On a vast ocean, four people were walking on the water. With a wave of Qing Yanjing’s sleeve, numerous spiritual seals converged and a massive Transfer Spiritual Array took shape.
“We just need to transfer one more time, then we should be able to reach the Hundred Spirit Continent.” Hearing Qing Yanjing’s words, Mu Chen and the other two heaved sighs of relief, as this was finally the end of their journey.
The four of them stepped into the Transfer Spiritual Array, while a light surged. The surrounding space underwent an intense distortion as they shuttled through space.
After an unknown amount of time had passed, they opened their eyes again. In front of them were many mountains. It was clear that they were on another continent.
Qing Yanjing pressed her hand down to suppress the violent space fluctuations. She then looked at the heaven and earth, nostalgia surfacing in her gaze. Excited expectations immediately surged in her heart…
That guy… I wonder how he is now…
“Come on, let’s go to the Hundred Spirit City.” Concealing her emotions, Qing Yanjing smiled at the three, and with a wave of her sleeve, turned into a beam of spiritual light and soared into the sky.
“Hehe, I seldom see Aunt Jing in such a hurry.” Ling Xi could not help but to chuckle.
“I would like to see what a magnificent man the Lordship is, as he was able to win the heart of Mistress!” Long Xiang said in anticipation.
Mu Chen’s lips twitched. Although he did not want to belittle his father, no matter how he looked at it, it had nothing to do with how charming his father was. Nevertheless, he shook his head, turned into a light and beamed out, while the other three quickly followed.
The Hundred Spirit City.
As it was the capital of the Hundred Spirit Continent, the majesty of the Hundred Spirit City was naturally beyond compare. It was the most popular and prosperous of all of the cities.
Especially in recent days, it had become the focus of the whole Hundred Spirit Continent. This was because today was the day of the Ceremony of Audience with the Lord!
The purpose of this gathering was to worship the Lord, meaning the Lord Hundred Spirit, who was the Lord of all Spirits. As the ruler of this continent, the Lord Hundred Spirit was obviously the supreme existence of the Hundred Spirit Continent. As such, any force on the land had to offer offerings to him regularly, just like his subjects.
Therefore, whenever the Ceremony of Audience with the Lord happened, the city became extremely lively, as many forces came continuously, which made the city even more prosperous.
In the center of the city, in the Hundred Spirit Palace.
In the luxurious palace, the sounds of drums rumbled and there were numerous performances, filled with singing and dancing. In the most majestic hall, cheering reverberated in the air. The leaders of all of the forces sat on the edge of their seats, while beautiful servers held jade flasks, flitting amongst them and serving wine.
All of the famous leaders of the Hundred Spirit Continent were here, and from the arrangement of their seats, one could see their statuses. Those in the front were more powerful, while those seated behind them were weaker.
At the back of the hall, there were a few people seated, who looked restless. The leader of this group was a tall and upright middle-aged man. His expression was resolute and he had an air of authority. His features were similar to Mu Chen’s, as he was Mu Chen’s father, Mu Feng.
At this time, he frowned slightly, then sighed in his heart. There was a girl sitting quietly on her knees beside him. This was a position that made her delicate body look even more slender.
Her features were exquisite, and she was dressed in black robes. This garb accentuated her curves. Her long, black hair was tied up into a ponytail, which exuded a youthful vitality.
She was like a beautiful painting, attracting a lot of attention in the hall, as everyone was focusing their gazes on her delicate body.
If Mu Chen was here, he would be surprised to see this girl, who he had not seen since he had left the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy.
