56: Chapter 56 Xingluo's Plea to Stay, Yang Wudi's Heart Set on Returning Home

Star Luo Imperial Palace.

"Report!"

An urgent piece of intelligence was presented before the Emperor of Star Luo.

When he saw that the Breaking Clan was suspected of relocating their entire clan, he was instantly enraged.

"Absurd!"

The Emperor of Star Luo slammed the table and stood up; his imperial majesty made the air in the entire hall seem to freeze.

Currently, the healing medicines and other drugs in the Empire's army largely depend on the supply from the Breaking Clan.

If the Breaking Clan were to leave the Star Luo Empire, it would be a huge loss for the entire Empire.

How could he easily let go of a clan with such immense value?

What he feared more was, what if they defected to an enemy country...

"Come here!"

The Emperor of Star Luo shouted in a deep voice.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

A man in black appeared silently in the hall, kneeling on one knee.

"You go and pursue them yourself. You must intercept them before they leave the Empire's borders!"

The Emperor of Star Luo said in a stern tone.

"Remember, do not use force. First, ask clearly why they want to leave and try your best to persuade them to return. No matter what demands they make, agree to them first!"

"Your subordinate understands!"

The man in black accepted the order, his figure flickering as he vanished from the hall.

...

Fifty miles outside Star Luo City.

The Breaking Clan's convoy was moving slowly along the main road.

Just then, from behind the convoy, a black shadow approached at an extremely fast speed.

In the blink of an eye, it blocked the front of the convoy.

The newcomer was dressed in black, his aura restrained yet powerful.

His gaze fell upon Yang Wudi, and he said in a deep voice:

"Clan Chief Yang, His Majesty has specifically ordered me to come and ask, why does your clan suddenly want to leave the Star Luo Empire?"

Yang Wudi replied with a calm expression:

"It is merely changing locations. As for our clan's internal affairs, there is no need to trouble Your Majesty."

"Clan Chief Yang, straightforward people do not speak in riddles. His Majesty values you all highly. As long as you are willing to return, no matter what conditions you propose, His Majesty will do his best to satisfy them."

A trace of sharpness flashed in Yang Wudi's eyes.

"My Breaking Clan is free to come and go. Since when do we need anyone else's permission?"

The man in black raised his voice a few notches and said:

"This is His Majesty's decree! I ask that Clan Chief Yang does not make things difficult for me!"

"I will say this one more time." Yang Wudi's voice was cold. "The Breaking Clan must leave today."

Seeing this, the man in black knew that persuasion was hopeless.

Yang Wudi's strength was not as it appeared on the surface; he was definitely no match for him.

At this moment, facing Yang Wudi's cold gaze and the Soul Breaking Spear ready to strike, he could more clearly feel that heart-palpitating pressure.

He knew well that His Majesty's goal was to persuade the Breaking Clan to return as much as possible, not to make enemies with them.

If he continued to be aggressive, it was very likely he would push the Breaking Clan completely to the opposite side of the Empire.

The man in black took a deep breath, his tone carrying a touch of helplessness as he said:

"Since Clan Chief Yang is determined to leave, then I have no choice but to report the truth to His Majesty."

Having said that, he left quickly, his figure fading into the distance until finally disappearing at the end of the road.

After watching him leave, Yang Wudi retracted his Soul Power fluctuations and turned to look at the convoy, saying:

"Continue moving forward."

Inside the carriage at the end of the convoy, Ji Xuan slowly opened his eyes.

He had perceived everything that happened outside just now clearly.

"The person sent by the Emperor of Star Luo is somewhat sensible."

Ji Xuan spoke indifferently, his voice carrying a trace of coldness.

"If they had chosen to use force today..."

He did not finish his sentence, but Gold Crocodile Douluo opposite him naturally understood the meaning.

...

A month later, the convoy was approaching Heaven Dou City.

"Stop for a moment."

Ji Xuan's calm voice came from inside the carriage.

The Breaking Clan Disciple driving the carriage immediately tightened the reins, and the horses pulling the carriage stopped in their tracks.

Ji Xuan and Gold Crocodile Douluo got off the carriage one after the other and came to the front of the procession.

Seeing this, Yang Wudi hurried to meet them.

"Young Master, do you have any instructions?"

"We will go ahead to Heaven Dou City first."

Ji Xuan's gaze swept over the convoy behind him.

"You continue moving forward; I will come back to meet you later."

"I will respectfully follow your order, Young Master."

Although Yang Wudi had doubts in his heart, he still bowed respectfully.

Ji Xuan stepped on his wind sword, and Golden Crocodile flew through the air; the two figures instantly turned into streaks of light and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, the people below felt even more curious about the mysterious Ji Xuan.

...

After only a moment.

Ji Xuan and Gold Crocodile Douluo had quietly arrived before the Spirit Hall in Heaven Dou City.

"Greetings, Elder!"

When the guards saw the token in Gold Crocodile Douluo's hand, they immediately knelt on one knee, their voices trembling.

"Rise."

Golden Crocodile said indifferently.

The two entered the hall and took their seats. Upon hearing the report from his subordinates, Bishop Salas hurried out to welcome them.

"I did not know of your arrival, Elder. It is my failure to welcome you properly; please forgive me!"

Bishop Salas hurriedly bowed in greeting.

Gold Crocodile Douluo glanced at him indifferently without saying much.

Ji Xuan stepped forward and said:

"Bishop Salas, we need a residence that can accommodate over a hundred people, immediately."

Bishop Salas said repeatedly:

"Yes, this subordinate will handle it right away, right away!"

Although he did not know Ji Xuan, anyone who could be by the Elder's side and issue orders so calmly must have an extraordinary status.

He dared not delay in the slightest and went to execute the matter personally.

In less than two hours, Bishop Salas returned to the Spirit Hall to report back, a look of relief on his face.

"My lord, this subordinate has arranged it properly. It is a villa belonging to a wealthy merchant in the west of the city, with complete facilities. It can be moved into after a little cleaning."

Ji Xuan nodded slightly and said: "Take us to see it."

"Yes, my lord."

Guided by Bishop Salas, the two arrived at a quiet residence in the west of the city.

"Not bad, it is indeed a suitable place to live." Ji Xuan revealed a look of satisfaction. "You may withdraw."

"Yes."

Bishop Salas did not dare to say more and immediately turned and left.

...

When the two, Ji Xuan, returned to the convoy, the sun was already setting in the west.

Seeing them return, Yang Wudi hurried forward: "Young Master."

"Follow us." Ji Xuan nodded slightly. "We are taking you to your new residence."

"Yes."

...

Led by Ji Xuan, the convoy slowly drove into Heaven Dou City. By the time they arrived at the mansion, the sky had already darkened.

Looking at the imposing mansion before them, the members of the Breaking Clan all revealed expressions of surprise and joy.

This was countless times more luxurious than their original residence.

"This is the residence prepared for you all." Ji Xuan said to Yang Wudi. "Tomorrow, I will take you to that place."

"Everything is up to your arrangements, Young Master."

Yang Wudi bowed solemnly, his voice carrying a touch of emotion.

He looked at the luxurious mansion before him, then looked at the calm-looking Ji Xuan, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

He never expected that Ji Xuan had specifically left early beforehand just to prepare a residence for his clan members.

Such trivial matters should not have bothered Ji Xuan to attend to personally, yet he had taken them so much to heart.

At this moment, Yang Wudi truly felt the importance Ji Xuan placed on the Breaking Clan, and Yang Wudi was even more convinced that his choice was not wrong.

After everything was arranged, Yang Wudi stood alone in the courtyard, his heart filled with determination.

From this day on, he would wholeheartedly follow this new master.
