49: Shujian Lake Opening

"Yumu, I'm not sure. It might be a recently risen Family power." Wu Yujia frowned.

However, as soon as her words fell, she seemed to have thought of something and said with some uncertainty, "A few days ago, when I visited the Wang Family, I found that their Family's Legacy was very profound, the younger generation was excellent, and there was even a Purple Mansion Realm great demon guarding the gate."

"It's just that I didn't pay too much attention at the time, so I'm not sure if it's related to the Wang Family," Wu Yujia said with some uncertainty.

Wu Yumu, the man in golden armor, pondered when he heard this.

Is it the Cultivator who replaced the Qingxuan Sect?

It is said that a senior in his Family is a Dongtian Realm True Monarch.

Other than that, there's nothing special.

Now it seems that his Legacy is extremely profound.

That's quite interesting.

The man in golden armor narrowed his eyes.

Then he looked in the direction of Mountain Eagle, and a few flashes of Divine Thought flickered in his eyes.

At the same time, Wang Gou, who had always been more cautious, had secretly begun to use his Purple Mansion Divine Thought.

He cautiously began to probe among the crowd.

However, he only probed those whose cultivation was lower than his own.

It was mainly for safety.

The more he understood others, the more secure he would be.

But suddenly, his eyes moved.

He clearly spotted Wang Changfeng, who stood out like a crane among chickens.

Is that him?

Immediately, he gestured to Wang Jiayao with his lips.

"Look over there."

Wang Jiayao was startled for a moment, then followed his gaze.

"It's Wang Changfeng."

Everyone was present when the Clan Chief set the development outline for the Family before, so they knew each other.

"Yes, let's go over and take a look," Wang Gou smiled.

His Aura was as calm as water.

He looked like an ordinary person, if one ignored the Purple Mansion Realm great demon behind him.

Actually, Wang Gou didn't like to be so ostentatious.

But unfortunately, the current situation didn't allow him to be low-key.

"Okay."

Wang Jiayao nodded gently, then moved her lotus steps and walked towards Wang Changfeng.

Wang Gou deliberately lagged half a step behind her.

"Clan Brother Changfeng," Wang Jiayao spoke softly.

Wang Changfeng was startled when he heard someone calling him.

He looked back and saw Wang Jiayao.

However, he frowned slightly.

"Why do you know me?"

"Is it hard to know me?" Wang Jiayao looked at Wang Gou beside her.

"Before we set off, the Clan Chief said that another person named Wang Changfeng would be accompanying us, but he had other matters and left first."

"He told us to pay attention to our surroundings after we arrived here. You're the only one in the entire venue whose attire is similar to ours. Besides, we met in the square before, didn't we?" Wang Gou smiled lightly.

Wang Jiayao nodded in agreement.

"Clan Brother, do you still have any doubts?"

"So that's how it is." Wang Changfeng nodded when he heard this, then cupped his hands to the two of them.

He said no more.

However, this scene of the three of them conversing immediately attracted the attention of the people nearby.

Especially the third brother who had challenged Wang Changfeng earlier.

His face instantly turned pale.

Just now, he almost caused trouble.

If it weren't for the Royal Guards stepping in later, he would definitely not have gotten off lightly.

Even so, he had already conceded.

He didn't expect this person to have such a powerful background.

It was not at all what he had imagined, coming from a small Family.

Originally, the third brother's thoughts of revenge instantly vanished.

In fact, if he didn't need to participate in Shujian Lake right now, he would have already considered leaving.

No one who can cultivate to this Realm is not cautious.

Anyone who is not cautious and whose background is not strong enough would have already died on the way.

What's more, everything in front of him was so obvious.

To be able to use a Purple Mansion Realm great demon as a mount.

It's enough to imagine how huge Wang Changfeng's background is.

If he were to crush him, it would truly be effortless.

Although he was arrogant, he was not a fool.

"Did you see that? From today onwards, rein in your temper. After you go back, copy the 'Scripture of Non-Action and Purity' 1000 times. From now on, don't bring disaster to the Family again."

"For the next few days, unless there's an emergency, don't go out. The Imperial Capital is full of hidden Dragons and crouching tigers. You never know who we might offend."

The tall man also lectured the third brother at this moment.

The third brother lowered his head and dared not say a word.

After a long while, a shocking sound came from not far away.

The tightly closed gate of Shujian Lake slowly opened.

An old man in a purple robe slowly walked out from behind the gate and stopped before the threshold.

He was stern, with an inherent imposing Aura. The Qi released from the shadows was enough to make everyone present tremble with fear.

One by one, they dared not speak even more.

Those who could enter and exit Shujian Lake so freely in the Wu Zhou Dynasty were either related to the royal Family or the true power holders of Shujian Lake.

This one was a Dongtian Realm True Monarch, a supreme expert.

"Greetings, True Monarch Liuyun."

The Royal Guards, along with Wu Yujia and Wu Yumu, bowed and cupped their hands.

Everyone followed them, saluting in unison.

True Monarch Liuyun nodded.

"All you Prodigies need not be so polite. Logically speaking, the opening of Shujian Lake this time should have been personally overseen by the King, but he is truly busy this time."

"So, for now, I will take his place. However, you don't need to worry later; I will do everything the King would do, and the final judgment will still be made by the King himself."

"Next, let's discuss some important matters."

"First are the rules of Shujian Lake. I believe your elders at home have already told you before you arrived."

"Those who rank in the top ten will have the opportunity to represent the Wu Zhou Dynasty in the Heavenly Pride War."

"However, there are only 5 specific spots, so if necessary, please try your best to showcase yourselves to facilitate our selection."

"Second, those who stand out in the Heavenly Pride War also have the opportunity to enter various ancient powers and top Legacy Sects. It can be said to be a step to heaven, a Dragon leaping over the gate. As for whether you can seize such an opportunity, that's up to you."

"Alright, without further ado, please enter the lake now."

After the old man in the purple robe finished speaking, his figure flashed to the side.

Immediately after, two Cultivators appeared where he had just stood.

Both were dressed in black, with a vigorous Aura. The one on the left held a roster.

He said to everyone, "Next, I will register. Everyone, step forward when you hear your name."
