Chapter 2546: Tianyan City

Chapter 2547: Tianyan City

Tianyan City was organizing the Armorer Competition. Just as the news that the various cultivators of the Divine Prefecture were coming to Tianyan City got out, Ye Futian received this news from Xi Chiyao.

Xi Chiyao told Ye Futian through the mirror, “The Armorer Competition is a long-standing tradition of Tianyan City. However, this time it is somewhat different. A few Domain Chief’s Manor will be in attendance. On the surface, it will appear to be a grand occasion for armorers. Yet, they might be meeting in secret to discuss how to deal with the Ziwei Segmentum. This is the best opportunity to convince Tianyan City to use imperial arms for the various forces.”

“Hmm,” responded Ye Futian as he nodded. He also realized this. However, the various forces were all participating in the Armorer Competition. This was the tradition of Tianyan City. Some forces who bore no ill will towards the Ziwei Segmentum would also send members to participate in the event. He couldn’t just attack all the forces who participated in the event.

“I heard that the cultivators of the Dark Court and the Empty Divine Realm have already paid a visit to the Ziwei Segmentum?” Xi Chiyao asked.

“Goddess Chiyao, you are certainly well-informed,” said Ye Futian.

Xi Chiyao smiled and replied, “It is not that I am well-informed. The two major forces did not try to keep it a secret at all. The various forces of the Divine Prefecture, including Donghuang Imperial Palace, all know about this. They clearly did so deliberately. I am sure you understand their motives for doing so. You should still be wary of these two major forces.”

“I know,” said Ye Futian as he nodded his head. He naturally knew this. These two major forces certainly hoped to force him to be at absolute odds with Donghuang Imperial Palace and the forces of the Divine Prefecture. That way, he would join or even rely on them and be under their control.

The last time they visited him, both forces bore their own sinister agendas.

“How do you plan to handle the matters in Tianyan City?” Xi Chiyao asked. “If the forces in Tianyan City agree to use imperial arms, it will pose a certain level of threat towards the Ziwei Segmentum.”

“This is not something I can control,” replied Ye Futian. “However, I should at least make my stand clear to them. It seems like the eradication of the Holy Land of Taichu was not a strong enough deterrent to stop everyone in the Divine Prefecture from targeting me. In that case, I’ll play by ear. I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.”

Xi Chiyao said, “Hmm. West Imperial Palace will also head towards Tianyan City. If there’s any news, I’ll share it with you at once.”

“Alright.” Ye Futian nodded and said, “I might make a trip there too.”

“You want to come to Tianyan City?” Xi Chiyao revealed a worried expression as she said, “Even though you’re proficient in Celerity, it’s still quite risky since Tianyan City will be filled with cultivators then. It will be dangerous, especially because there are imperial arms in the city.”

If Ye Futian were captured by the others, everything they had achieved so far would be in vain.

“My arrival will not threaten the safety of Tianyan City. They can’t use imperial arms on a small fry like me,” Ye Futian said. “If I go, I’ll act cautiously.”

“Alright,” Xi Chiyao nodded and said. “If you need anything, just let me know.”

“Hmm.” Ye Futian nodded, and the two of them ended their conversation.

Under the starry sky, Ye Futian had a cold look in his eyes. The Ziwei Segmentum was an independent body; it was indeed the weakest among all the major forces in the world.

If he compared the Ziwei Segmentum with the various forces of the Divine Prefecture alone, he had nothing to fear. However, Donghuang Imperial Palace was backing the Divine Prefecture. The Dark World and the Empty Divine Realm were also all major worlds. Only the Ziwei Segmentum was a small world that had been sealed away from the outside world for many years.

If Great Emperor Ziwei was alive, then the Ziwei Segmentum could also stand on the same level as the other worlds. Unfortunately, Great Emperor Ziwei was no longer around, and Master had reached an understanding with Donghuang the Great.

Now, the Ziwei Segmentum could only rely on him to grow.

…

In Tianyan City of the Divine Prefecture.

Tianyan City was the largest city in the Tianyan Domain. There was no dispute there.

Tianyan Domain was a domain of armorers. Back when Tianyan the Great was still alive, Tianyan City was glorious. Although it had been many years, the current Tianyan City was still the undisputed number one armorer holy land in the Divine Prefecture. It had always been a place where cultivators flocked to, even top-level cultivators.

It was already a place where cultivators gathered on a normal day, let alone during the Armorer Competition held once a century.

This entire year of the Divine Prefecture Calendar was unique to the Divine Prefecture. The Year 10100 of the Divine Prefecture Calendar coincided with the Tianyan City Armorer Fest. For a time, it attracted the attention of the world. The entire Divine Prefecture had its sights on Tianyan City.

Many taverns in Tianyan City were fully booked. The main streets were also crowded with people. The trade areas for divine arms and ritual implements were even more overcrowded. Some people jokingly said that one could easily hit a high-level Renhuang if they cast a stone into the crowd.

There were countless continents in the Divine Prefecture and numerous cultivators. Aside from the superpowers at the top, there were many more top-level forces beneath them. This time, many of these forces had come.

During the Armorer Fest every century, Tianyan City would not just organize the Armorer Competition. They would also bring out many top-level ritual implements and even some Sub-divine Arms for trading. Hence, each time the Armorer Fest came around, it would stir up the Divine Prefecture. Cultivators would gather from far and wide, and even giant-level figures would personally come here.

“Rumor has it that cultivators from other worlds will make their way into Tianyan City,” someone commented on the streets as they discussed this grand occasion.

“Cultivators from other worlds?” someone asked.

“Hmm,” responded the person who had spoken first. “The cultivators of the Dark World, the Empty Divine Realm, and the Human Realm might all appear. However, the conflict between the Dark World and the Empty Divine Realm with the Divine Prefecture has always run deep. If they came, they should have done so in secret. They would not reveal their identities.”

“Would they be so daring? If they were exposed, wouldn’t they be slaughtered by the forces of the Divine Prefecture?”

“It wouldn’t be that easy. The forces of the Divine Prefecture wouldn’t dare to simply attack the cultivators from the Dark Court and Empty Mountain. They might have come to obtain some incredible Sub-divine Arms. Of course, I still wish for members of Donghuang Imperial Palace to be here the most.”

“Would Donghuang the Great also send people over?”

“He will,” replied the other party as he nodded his head. “A hundred years ago, in the Year 10,000 of the Divine Prefecture Calendar, he sent a Divine General over to congratulate Tianyan City for organizing the Armorer Fest. There shouldn’t be an exception this time. Rumor also has it that Princess Donghuang has already grown up and is a peerless beauty. I wonder whether we will have the chance to meet her. I am looking forward to that happening.”

“Princess Donghuang,” exclaimed the person beside him as he was similarly fascinated. Princess Donghuang was a Proud Daughter of Heaven and the only daughter of Donghuang the Great. What status she had. Donghuang the Great ruled over the Divine Prefecture and had only one offspring.

Princess Donghuang was showered with his affections. However, rumor has it that Princess Donghuang was very independent. Aside from her peerless beauty, she also had extraordinary talent and was one of the top cultivators.

In Tianyan City, such conversation was everywhere. Everyone was looking forward to this grand occasion. Countless prominent figures, monstrous existences, as well as giant-level figures who were renowned far and wide had arrived.

Of course, they were also looking forward to the divine arms that Tianyan City would present.

Tianyan City had always been generous during the Armorer Fest that happened once a century. It would naturally not be an exception this time.

…

The City Lord Office was the ruling force of Tianyan City. It was also an inheritance of the Wang family—one of the Ancient God Clans. Wang Clan was renowned for their blacksmith skills. They had trained and produced many Blacksmith masters. These Blacksmith masters had families of their own and became the rulers of various clans in Tianyan City.

Gradually, the influences of the Wang family spanned the entire city. They became the rulers of Tianyan City. The manor of the Wang family also became the City Lord Office.

At the moment, cultivators gradually arrived at the City Lord Office. The cultivators from the Wang family came out to greet the guests personally.

However, Lord of Tianyan City did not come out personally. Only a few people in the entire Divine Prefecture were worthy of him greeting them personally at the door.

In the hall of the City Lord Office, Lord of Tianyan City sat at a raised seat while listening to the reports of cultivators below. They were updating him on the identities of the cultivators who had come.

“Is there any news from the Imperial Palace?” Lord of Tianyan City asked. His biggest concern was clearly still Donghuang Imperial Palace.

“A century ago, the Imperial Palace sent a Divine General over to join the fest. It should be the same this time around. There will most likely be news soon,” someone replied. Lord of Tianyan City nodded in agreement. The Armorer Fest took place once every century. The Wang family placed great importance on it. It was both a major event in Tianyan City and an ancient ritual.

Right at the moment, someone walked in from outside. The person said, “Clan Leader, the Imperial Palace has sent their reply.”

“What did they say?” Lord of Tianyan City inquired.

“After receiving the invitation, the Imperial Palace said they will send a representative over to join the fest and congratulate us,” the person replied.

“Do you know who will come as the representative?” The gaze of Lord of Tianyan City was piercing. He seemed to be rather excited.

The person said, “I don’t know the details. However, according to my speculation, it will most likely be Spear Emperor Du You, one of the Divine Generals.”

Another person commented, “Spear Emperor Du You is a direct disciple of the Great Emperor. He survived the divine tribulation ten years ago. Currently, his ability is ranked among the top of the Nine Divine Generals. He is quite a prestigious guest to have for our fest.”

“I heard that Spear Emperor Du You has always been by Princess Donghuang’s side?” Lord of Tianyan City asked.

“He is the direct disciple of the Great Emperor. It’s normal for him to have some thoughts about her,” someone answered.

“Princess Donghuang has been cultivating for nearly a century and has become a top figure. She is also the only daughter of the Great Emperor. Countless people in the Divine Prefecture have their eyes on her. If she can come to our fest this time,” the Lord of Tianyan City mumbled. His tone carried a hint of excitement.

The people who stood below all nodded. Their gazes shifted to look at the person who stood beside Lord of Tianyan City. This person had an extraordinary temperament, yet he stood quietly on a side and had not commented.

As mentioned by the underlings, currently, countless great men in the Divine Prefecture had their eyes on Princess Donghuang.

Regardless of how extraordinary Princess Donghuang was, she was a woman after all. Everyone in the Divine Prefecture desired to become the son-in-law of Donghuang the Great.

If they could win her heart, they might even be able to join Donghuang Imperial Palace.

Unfortunately, Princess Donghuang seemed only to be interested in cultivation!
