A few days had passed. These days, Xiao Chen had heard about the Tai Shi Dao Sect. This time, the Tai Shi Dao Sect had set up a Sword Discussion Conference in the Imperial Continent. The purpose of the meeting seemed to be to establish its might. Previously, many sects had already gone to the meeting, but in the end, they had all been defeated.

Right now, many people were looking at the Four Great Mysterious Gates, especially Xuanqing Sect. Everyone was speculating whether Xuanqing Sect of Qianyu Nichang would go to the Imperial Continent to compete with Tai Shi Dao Sect for the pinnacle of fame.

After all, it was rumored that the disciple who came out of the Tai Shi Dao Sect this time was the disciple of the Tai Shi Dao Sect’s Sect Master. His cultivation was so high that almost no disciple of any sect could compete with him.

In the afternoon of that day, Xiao Chen arrived at a densely populated ancient city. There were islands floating in the sky, and there were pavilions and pavilions built on the islands. They looked like immortal palaces and jade palaces.

Xiao Chen’s divine sense swept across the entire city and he knew that there were 317 sword formations used for defense. The floating islands in the sky were also supported by the Spiritual Energy in the city. They were extremely powerful defensive formations.

It was clear that this city was not a mortal place like Suzhou City, but a gathering place for cultivators. The City Lord must be a figure.

Just as he was walking, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. That person was a white-haired old man. Judging from his aura, he was at least at the Dao Harmonization Realm. Xiao Chen immediately stopped. Seeing that the other party’s gaze was on him, he asked, “Old sir, what advice do you have?”

The old man smiled and said, “My master, I would like to invite the Young Hero’s Mansion to have a chat.”

Xiao Chen’s gaze narrowed slightly. Today was his first time here, and he didn’t have any contact with the people here. Who would recognize him? “Who is your master?” He asked.

The old man smiled and said, “This is Jiangzhou City. My master is the City Lord of Jiangzhou City, Liu Yunhe.”

“So it’s City Lord Liu.”

Xiao Chen nodded slightly, but he thought in his heart, could it be that he recognized him? However, seeing that the other party was intentionally showing his goodwill, it didn’t matter if he went. He said, “Then I’ll have to trouble you to lead the way.”

“Young Hero, please.”

The old man nodded and smiled. He immediately made a gesture of invitation.

A moment later, Xiao Chen followed him to the City Lord’s Mansion. He saw that the red walls and green tiles were orderly, and the pavilions and pavilions were well-arranged. Presumably, the master here was not an ordinary person.

In front of a spacious hall, a middle-aged man dressed in red walked out of the hall with a spring breeze on his face, “Young Hero, you’re here.”

Xiao Chen’s gaze narrowed slightly. He saw that this person was extremely enthusiastic, but there was no impression of him in his mind. The middle-aged man smiled and said, “I’m Liu Yunhe, Young Hero, please!”

The maids in the manor all looked over, thinking to themselves that the City Lord was indeed warm and hospitable, but who was this ordinary man? The maids were curious that the City Lord had welcomed them so warmly.

Xiao Chen did not say anything else. When he went to the hall, Liu Yunhe laughed heartily, “Fairy Xuanqing Miaoyin is indeed worthy of her reputation. It is indeed a great fortune for someone like Liu to meet Young Hero Xiao today! Young Hero Xiao … please sit down!”

Seeing that he recognized him, Xiao Chen didn’t find it strange. What was strange was, why was he so enthusiastic towards him?

“May I ask, City Lord Liu … why do you recognize me?”

“Haha!”

Liu Yunhe raised his head and smiled, “Young Hero Xiao, there is something you don’t know. Four years ago, I met Young Hero Xiao in Zhongyue Peak.”

“Zhongyue Feng …”

Xiao Chen’s eyes narrowed as he remembered the scene from that day at Zhongyue Feng. At that time, countless sects surrounded him. Could it be that Liu Yunhe was also there?

Seeing his current expression, Liu Yunhe hurriedly explained, “Young Hero Xiao, please don’t misunderstand. I’ve always admired Fairy Miaoyin. When I heard that Young Hero Xiao went to the Central Yue Peak alone, I happened to be nearby. On that day, I went up to take a look. Young Hero Xiao fought against experts from various sects alone. I really taught you a great deal …”

After listening to his words, Xiao Chen only understood one thing. This Liu Yunhe did not have any malicious intentions. On the contrary, he might be worried that he would cause trouble in the city. That was why he had invited him to the manor.

Liu Yunhe smiled and asked, “Young Hero Xiao, what is the purpose of coming to Jiangzhou City this time?”

Seeing his enthusiastic expression, Xiao Chen was embarrassed to say that he was just passing by. He said, “I’m going to the Imperial Continent.”

“Imperial Continent …”

Liu Yunhe was slightly surprised and said, “Tang Xinhai of the Tai Shi Dao Sect has set up a sword discussion meeting in the Imperial Continent. I heard that countless sects have been defeated during this period of time. Could it be that Young Hero Xiao is also going to that sword discussion meeting? So good, with Young Hero Xiao’s sword techniques, he will definitely be able to defeat that person’s spirit.”

Xiao Chen’s gaze narrowed slightly. “City Lord Liu, do you know this Tai Shi Dao Sect?”

He had just returned from the Eastern Continent, and he really did not know much about this Tai Shi Dao Sect. If he could ask one or two questions, it would be better if he knew himself and his enemy.

Liu Yunhe smiled and said, “It’s already late today. If Young Hero Xiao doesn’t dislike it, he will rest in his humble abode for the night. I will slowly tell Young Hero Xiao about this Tai Shi Dao Sect.”

“Right now, everyone can’t avoid Xiao’s identity. Isn’t the city lord afraid of attracting trouble if he leaves me here?”

“Haha!”

Liu Yunhe smiled and said, “Young Hero Xiao, by saying this, you are looking down on someone Liu. No matter if it is the Demon Gate or the Profound Gate, as long as people come to Jiangzhou City, they are all friends of someone Liu!”

“Those who come are all friends. If everyone were like City Lord Liu, there wouldn’t be so many disputes in this world.”

That night, Xiao Chen stayed in the Liu Manor and listened to Liu Yunhe say a lot about the Tai Shi Dao Sect. It turned out that this Tai Shi Dao Sect was a secluded profound sect. No one knew where its sect was. It was probably hidden in a profound realm.

The strength of the Tai Shi Dao Sect was not trivial. It was definitely not the strength he had seen in the 100,000 dense forest. However, judging from the current situation, the experts of the Cave Ruins Realm of the Tai Shi Dao Sect and even the experts of the Ruins Heaven Realm with a thousand years of cultivation were still unable to come out.

That night, the moon was as bright as day. It was late at night when Xiao Chen returned to his guest room. At this moment, Liu Yunhe was still in the hall. He only saw his brows knitted tightly and his face was filled with deep worry. It was no longer as if he was having fun with Xiao Chen just now.

“Is the City Lord worried that if he tells Young Hero Xiao too much about Tai Shi Dao Sect today, he might cause trouble in the future?”

At this time, the old man walked in during the day.

Seeing him approach, Liu Yunhe gradually loosened his eyebrows and shook his head, “The world is in chaos now. All sides are fighting for fame and fortune. Jiangzhou City is not for fame and fortune, but for self-preservation. I told you, why did Xiao Yichen come to Jiangzhou City for no reason? Sure enough, it was for the Emperor Province. I was a false alarm …”

The old man walked closer and whispered, “I heard that the ancient sword in the Tomb of the Sword is called ‘Di Gu’ in the 100,000-strong forest this time. According to legend, it is one of the six peerless profound weapons of the Primordial Era. This sword was originally something that Tai Shi Dao Sect must compete for, but now, it has fallen into Young Hero Xiao’s hands.”

“Di Gu …”

Liu Yunhe’s eyes narrowed slightly. After a while, he slowly opened his eyebrows and looked at the old man. He shook his hand and said, “This matter has nothing to do with you and me, let alone Jiangzhou City. Once Young Hero Xiao leaves tomorrow, don’t mention it to anyone.”

“City Lord, don’t worry …”

…

The next morning, Xiao Chen bid farewell to Liu Yunhe and left for the Imperial Continent. The Imperial Continent was located to the west of the Central Plains. He would arrive in about three days.

The reason why he wanted to go to the Imperial Continent was not for the sword competition. His only goal was to use all the people from Tai Shi Dao Sect in the Imperial Continent to exchange for those disciples who were captured by Lianhua Palace two years ago. He had already sent a message to Yun Chuan. Madam Xian Shu and Hua Weiyang told him not to act rashly. Presumably, they should arrive soon.
