126: Twenty-eight cities in turmoil

The City Lord immediately issued his command.

The struggles between Secluded Factions would affect the future development of a city.

There was once a city that, due to its ignorance, provoked a Genius from a Secluded Faction, which ultimately enraged that Secluded Faction. In the end, all of its high-ranking officials were reshuffled, and even the City Lord lost his life because of it... In the Senate.

The Senate President looked down at the Vice-Dean kneeling on the ground.

"You mean that girl is from the Liu Family?"

The Vice-Dean quickly prostrated himself and said, "Yes, she told me at the time that her surname was Liu, the Liu of Liu Changqing."

Hiss!

The Senate President couldn't help but gasp.

Liu Changqing, that was a legendary name.

He rose to prominence three thousand years ago, achieving Blood Refinement in one day and Origin Qi in three days. In just thirty short years, he had already achieved a Breakthrough to the Dian Ling Realm and joined a Secluded Faction.

After that, Liu Changqing's reputation soared within the Secluded Factions, and he eventually founded a new Secluded Faction, the Liu Family!

At that time, he was only a hundred years old and was already a Zhu Tai Realm expert.

Now, after so many years, Liu Changqing's cultivation must have advanced further, reaching an unimaginable height.

That's right!

Liu Changqing, the ancestor of the Liu Family, was still alive.

And the Liu Family, because of Liu Changqing's existence, was one of the top Secluded Factions.

Of course, these matters were only known to big figures like the City Lord and the Senate President.

For lower-level Martial Artists, they had never even heard of Secluded Factions.

"You should be grateful for your good fortune. The young person the Liu Family sent out for experience this time has a relatively kind personality and only abolished your cultivation. If it were someone with a bad temper, let alone you, not even one of your clansmen would have survived."

The Senate President paused, his eyes gradually turning cold. "However, even so, I will not keep you any longer. I don't want to bring unnecessary trouble upon myself. I'll give you three days to pack everything and leave Twenty-eighth City. This is also out of consideration for our past relationship; it's the last chance I'm giving you."

The Vice-Dean was terrified, his pupils contracting. "But, but... that girl already said she would spare my life?"

The Vice-Dean hadn't expected the Senate President to be so resolute, actually wanting to drive him out of Twenty-eighth City.

Originally, he had imagined a beautiful future. Even if his cultivation was completely abolished, his Family still had several Acquired Realm Martial Artists, and they held important positions as Senators.

Even without the identity of Vice-Dean, he would still have a place in the Inner City.

But he hadn't expected that the Senate President would not only abandon him but also expel his clansmen from Twenty-eighth City.

"Precisely because of that, I didn't kill you. Otherwise, do you think you'd still be alive? Yes, that girl did promise to let you go, but you ultimately offended the Liu Family. Who can guarantee that other members of the Liu Family won't vent their anger for that girl? I won't offend the Liu Family for your sake, get out immediately!"

The Senate President's voice gradually grew colder.

In fact, he had initially intended to kill the Vice-Dean directly to avoid trouble for himself.

But upon second thought, Liu Yiyi had already spared the Vice-Dean. If he were to forcibly intervene, it might anger her, so he decided to have the Vice-Dean and his clansmen get out of Twenty-eighth City.

"I... understand!"

The Vice-Dean finally bowed his head.

He knew that if he dared to refuse again, it would only lead to death.

This was the terrifying aspect of Secluded Factions.

Even a casually released signal would make countless important figures tremble in fear... In just a few short hours.

Everyone of renown in the entire Twenty-eighth City was set in motion.

Whether it was searching for Liu Yiyi's whereabouts or warning the Juniors in their Families not to act domineeringly, all sorts of situations arose.

And it all boiled down to one sentence: live cautiously!

... Star Zenith Department Store.

"This Enlightenment Room is also well-known in Twenty-eighth City. If you want to participate in the Legacy of the Martial Dao Token fragment, you can choose here."

Shen Xi introduced to Liu Yiyi.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi generally looked around, then nodded.

The Enlightenment Room at Star Zenith Department Store naturally couldn't compare to their Liu Family's, but within a Federal Safety City, it was indeed quite good.

Coupled with the various external aids she carried to enhance her Comprehension Ability, she should be able to fully comprehend the Legacy of the two martial token fragments within a month.

However, as she thought of this, Liu Yiyi's mind couldn't help but recall the scene of Shen Xi instantly mastering two Legacies.

This made her increasingly feel that Shen Xi was like a monster.

It was precisely because of this that Liu Yiyi's attitude towards Shen Xi was completely different from others.

Even for Liu Piaoling, she only regarded him as a respected elder, but for Shen Xi, she regarded him as a peer, a Genius who could advance alongside her, or rather, a Prodigy...

"Then this will be the place."

Liu Yiyi agreed.

The two walked into Star Zenith Department Store.

The next second, Manager Wang proactively came out to greet them.

"Esteemed guest, you've finally returned."

Manager Wang said with a beaming smile. He had a deep impression of Shen Xi.

This was an esteemed guest with a Supreme Black Card.

"This is my friend. She wants to rent the most top-tier Enlightenment Room."

Shen Xi said with a smile.

"No, no problem. Your friend is also an esteemed guest of our Star Zenith Department Store."

Manager Wang was stunned for a moment, then immediately agreed.

Although Shen Xi still owed the store money, he was, after all, a Supreme Black Card guest, so he had to be given enough Face.

"Don't worry, I brought money this time."

Shen Xi saw through Manager Wang's thoughts. He wasn't the type to like owing money either.

Saying this, he opened his Storage Ring and dumped out all the Materials he had collected during this period.

For a moment, Star Zenith Department Store glowed brightly.

Especially a scale left by the Jade Fire Lion, it was even more dazzling like a star.

"This is... a scale from a Jade Fire Lion!"

"No, this is even Innate-Grade!"

Manager Wang's pupils contracted, and he cried out in shock.

Materials left by an Innate-Grade Yao Beast were worth at least a hundred billion.

And the Jade Fire Lion was an extremely precious species among Yao Beasts. The Materials it left behind could potentially be worth even a trillion.

This was the earning capability of a powerful Martial Artist.

Sometimes, the profit from just one set of Materials was enough to allow a Martial Artist to rise up and become a great wealthy person.

"Esteemed guest, I need to find professional personnel to evaluate these Materials. Please wait a moment."

Manager Wang suppressed the excitement in his heart, but his constantly twitching mouth still betrayed his mood.

"Naturally, but can you arrange for my friend to enter the Enlightenment Room first?"
