Urban Invincible Overlord

Xiao Yixian sensed the presence of multiple Divinity Transformation Realm Masters approaching, but his Divine Sense stretched out thousands of miles, yet still did not see anyone close by.

Lu Guangyuan’s words reached his ears, sparking a bit of anticipation within him.

Could it be that the battles at the Shang Qing Sect have already concluded?

After a few breaths, a luxurious Spirit Ship appeared at the edge of his Divine Sense range at an extremely fast speed.

Immediately afterward, seven powerful Divine Senses were probing him, and some of these senses carried a hint of sharpness, as if they were ready to attack him at any moment.

The moment the Divine Senses made contact, Xiao Yixian’s expression drastically changed, and he quickly withdrew his Divine Sense.

At this time, Lu Guangyuan also sensed the approaching luxurious Spirit Ship, even more intimidated by the seven powerful presences emanating from it.

"Be cautious; the situation isn’t right." Xiao Yixian’s transmitted voice entered his ear.

Lu Guangyuan’s heart tightened, hurriedly responding, "Aren’t they fellow cultivators from the Wangxian Sect?"

Xiao Yixian shook his head.

Not long after, the sound of the Spirit Ship breaking through the air came, and soon, the two saw a Spirit Ship enter their vision, traveling forth at a high speed.

Xiao Yixian dared not use his Divine Sense to probe the situation on the Spirit Ship. If he did, the seven masters on the ship could counter with their Divine Senses, greatly risking injury.

Now that the Spirit Ship had come near, he glanced over and saw a large flag on it, embroidered with a large ’Yan’ character in golden threads.

Xiao Yixian’s mind quickly spun, thinking of all the various forces of the Five Immortal Domains, ultimately determining what this flag represented, his expression turning solemn.

The Yan Family of the Central Star Domain.

Their presence here at this moment surely meant they knew everything about Earth.

This is troublesome.

"Brother Xiao, which faction are they from?" Lu Guangyuan, with only an Early-stage Divine Transformation Cultivation, differed significantly in Realm from Xiao Yixian and hadn’t seen the flag, hence he asked.

Xiao Yixian said solemnly, "People from the Yan Family of the Central Star Domain."

Lu Guangyuan, having been to the Central Star Domain, was very familiar with the Yan Family, one of the strongest Cultivation Families there. He went pale upon hearing this and said in a lowered voice, "The Yan Family from the Central Star Domain? How could they come here? Such a grand display, aren’t they violating the non-interference agreements between the Five Star Domains?"

Xiao Yixian coldly replied, "Rules have always been made by the strong. Besides..." He paused, his eyes dimming a bit, "The imbalance within the Southern Domain has given Outer Domain forces an opportunity, and with Earth, this new world has been discovered, anyone with power and knowledge of this wouldn’t be able to resist."

Though a core member of the Wangxian Sect, Xiao Yixian was known for his upright and chivalrous reputation in the Southern Domain Cultivation World, sharing the best reputation with Wan Daorong.

Regarding the Wangxian Sect’s involvement in Shang Qing Sect’s internal conflict, he neither supported nor opposed it.

After all, Shang Qing Sect first stirred up trouble internally, and Wangxian Sect taking advantage of the situation afterward wasn’t all that dishonorable.

Also, as a disciple of the Wangxian Sect, who wouldn’t want the sect to grow stronger?

So, instead of going to the main battlefield of the Shang Qing Sect, Xiao Yixian chose to come to the Southern South Domain to control this Transmission Channel to Earth, aiming to open up Earth’s resources for the sect and seek greater benefits.

Now knowing Yan Family from the Central Star Domain has joined the game, a sense of shame lingered within Xiao Yixian, feeling that the Wangxian Sect might be one of the culprits in disrupting the balance of the Southern Domain. Being one of the strongest powers in the Southern Domain, failing to unite with other top forces to keep the Yan Family out would lead to the Southern Domain’s overall resources and interests being divided by Outer Domain forces, a notion that weighed on his conscience.

However, this was the reality, and Xiao Yixian felt only a slight guilt inside.

Such vast matters were not his alone to bear.

Nor were they solely Wangxian Sect’s responsibility.

Ultimately, it was because the Southern Domain’s overall strength could not compete with the Central Star Domain; for five thousand years, no Unity Realm Stage Master had appeared, causing the Southern Domain Cultivation World to lag behind. How could other Immortal Domain forces not wish to divide it?

In Xiao Yixian’s view, breaking down and rebuilding was the only way out for the Southern Domain.

As long as the Wangxian Sect gained abundant resources from Earth, especially that Genetic Liquid Medicine, if it could nurture even one or more Unity Realm Stage Masters, whatever the Yan Family and other Outer Domain forces took from the Southern Domain now could be returned manifold in the future.

Soon, the Spirit Ship pierced the sky, arriving overhead.

The suppressed cultivators from the Lingxiao Sect, Flame Moon Sect, Feng Family, and Zhong Family eagerly looked toward the Spirit Ship, hoping it was strong individuals from the Shang Qing Sect; they had been suppressed here for over a month and wished to break free soon.

"Xiao Yixian, it’s been over two hundred years since we last met; everything well?" An energetic voice descended from the Spirit Ship.

Although surprised inside, Xiao Yixian maintained his composure, laughing heartily, "Hahaha, so it’s Brother Tianshu; it’s been over two hundred years since we last met, and you’re as elegant as ever. Congratulations."

One of the seven masters on the Spirit Ship, a man who knew Xiao Yixian, flew down. It was Qiu Tianshu.

As a tributor to the Yan Family, Qiu Tianshu was originally a Loose Cultivator in the Central Star Domain but offended a powerful enemy and was nearly besieged to death, also implicating his family who were slaughtered in large numbers. It was the Yan Family who saved him, and since then he joined them, becoming a loyal retainer.

When Xiao Yixian was training in the Central Star Domain years ago, he met Qiu Tianshu, and they were considered friends.

After Qiu Tianshu flew down, several others followed; they were Yan Xihua, Sun Xingyu, and Sun Jianping, along with six other Divinity Transformation Realm Masters.

"So, Master Yan is here too." Xiao Yixian gave a slight smile toward Yan Xihua.

Yan Xihua giggled, "The young lady meets Mr. Xiao."

Xiao Yixian sighed, "Back then, when Master Yan established West Phoenix Valley, the Southern Domain’s factions suspected; otherwise, with the strength of the Shang Qing Sect and the Mu Family, how could they have allowed West Phoenix Valley’s existence? It turns out Master Yan is indeed a member of the Yan Family from the Central Star Domain."

Lu Guangyuan’s heart tightened.

He naturally had heard of Yan Xihua’s reputation, but he always thought she was merely at the Nascent Soul Realm, and that West Phoenix Valley was no match for the Lu Family.

West Phoenix Valley’s existence seemed to be merely because Yan Xihua was flaunting her charms.

Never did he expect her true identity to be from the Yan Family of the Central Star Domain.

"I am Lu Guangyuan; it’s an honor to meet Master Yan, the famous name precedes you." Lu Guangyuan clasped his hands in greeting towards Yan Xihua and respectfully greeted Qiu Tianshu and the other Divinity Transformation Realm Masters beside her one by one.

He had no choice; though he was in the Early-stage Divinity Transformation, these seven were all Late-stage Divinity Transformation Masters; before them, he had to present himself humbly.

Yan Xihua and the others did not even glance at Lu Guangyuan, leaving him embarrassed, with feelings of shame and anger, harboring silent resentment.

"Lu Guangyuan, what have you done with my brother Yang Fei?"

At this moment, a voice of questioning entered his ears.

Lu Guangyuan squinted at the speaker, seeing it was a weak young man in the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, he nearly burst with anger.

Yan Xihua is of the Yan Family bloodline, Qiu Tianshu and the others are Late-stage Divinity Transformation Masters—I truly can’t provoke them—but you, just a small Foundation Establishment Cultivator, dare to look down on me, calling me by my name?
