The arrival of the Territory Lord will bring troubles to the region

Above the clouds, the group continued their journey.

For Zhong Qing, this identity as a Domain Lord was a bit of a pitfall!

The Human Race disliked him, and the Yao Race harbored deep animosity.

But for him, having come this far, there was no reason to give up halfway.

Moreover, in Zhong Qing's opinion, those pitfalls were not big problems; it was just that after so long, the System only told him that the Xuan Domain had the Disciple he was looking for, but it never revealed the specific details.

As for Ye Ji and Snowy Rainbow, their thoughts were much simpler.

Wherever Zhong Qing went, they would follow.

They only needed to stay quietly by Young Master's side.

They believed that even if the sky fell, Young Master could easily resolve it.

The two women had been with Zhong Qing for quite some time.

They always had a mysterious confidence in their Young Master.

This confidence even surpassed Zhong Qing himself.

...

Three days later!

At dusk, the group finally arrived at Tianxuan City!

Tianxuan City!

It gathered more than half of the high-end, top-tier forces of the entire Eastern Continent Human Race.

It could be said to be the Holy Land in the hearts of the entire Human Race.

The city walls, like a giant Dragon, stood majestically upon the earth.

The entire city had been built for countless years and expanded countless times.

One could vaguely see that some places bore the marks of time, with mottled claw marks on them, as if narrating the various battles it had endured.

This was an ancient, primitive city.

Its existence was undoubtedly a historical record witnessing the rise and fall of the Xuan Domain Human Race over tens of thousands of years.

"Domain Lord, this is Tianxuan City!"

As the group arrived before the city gate, Heavenly Mystery Gate Old Ancestor Yin Hao briefly introduced the ancient city to Zhong Qing.

As everyone entered the city,

It instantly drew the attention of many people within the city.

After all, Yin Hao, as a Great Saint expert and one of the Human Race's three stabilizing forces, undoubtedly held one of the highest positions among the Human Race.

And when some people saw Zhong Qing by Yin Hao's side,

And then saw the attitude of Yin Hao and others towards Zhong Qing, they instantly understood Zhong Qing's identity.

"Is this the newly appointed Domain Lord?"

Many people's eyes flickered.

Originally, they wanted to go forward and greet the high-ranking members of Heavenly Mystery Gate, but due to Zhong Qing's presence, their feet seemed to be rooted to the ground, and they paused in place.

The Domain Lord, in name, was indeed the master of the entire Xuan Domain.

He possessed the authority to govern and manage a domain.

In terms of status, the Domain Lord's identity was undoubtedly the most noble existence in the entire Xuan Domain.

However!

The previous Domain Lord's escape had too severe an impact.

Especially in this city, more than half of the people were descendants of the Human Race army from that battle.

The identity of the Domain Lord, for them, truly held no halo whatsoever.

Instead, it caused a feeling of resistance, even disgust, to rise from the depths of their hearts.

If not for the presence of Heavenly Mystery Gate members accompanying Zhong Qing, who knows what extreme actions they might have taken.

Yin Hao felt a pang of bitterness seeing this scene.

His identity and the Domain Lord's were naturally bound together.

He naturally hoped that the Domain Lord could regain his due honor.

But the actions of the previous Domain Lord had truly broken the Human Race's heart.

Facing this scene, he also felt helpless.

He could only say to Zhong Qing: "I hope the Domain Lord does not blame them."

"These people are not targeting you, Master; they are just reacting a bit too strongly to the identity of the Domain Lord. Please forgive them, Master."

"No matter!"

Zhong Qing stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze surveying the surrounding crowd.

He shook his head, naturally not feeling any dissatisfaction about this.

Tianxuan City was large and prosperous!

But Zhong Qing did not have the habit of being given the cold shoulder, nor did he have the desire to stroll around the city anymore.

He lightly waved his long sleeve and said to Yin Hao: "Let's go!"

"Take me to the Domain Lords Mansion to have a look!"

The Domain Lords Mansion was in the very center of Xuan Domain City.

It had always been managed by Heavenly Mystery Gate Disciples.

More precisely, this place was the main base of Heavenly Mystery Gate.

As Zhong Qing entered the Domain Lords Mansion!

The news of the Domain Lord's arrival spread quickly, almost like wildfire, to all major forces and every corner.

...

Futu Hall!

This was one of the Human Race's three transcendent forces.

The entire hall complex was situated on a flying boat, suspended in the western sky of Xuantian City.

The flying boat stretched for countless tens of thousands of feet!

Looking up from below, it resembled an island suspended in the sky.

Although it was deep night, the entire flying boat was brightly lit, as bright as day.

It illuminated the white clouds in the sky, making them appear transparent.

On the entire flying boat, numerous halls stood, nestled among green mountains and clear waters.

Looking down from above, the various halls shimmered, and between the green mountains, mist permeated, Spiritual Qi lingered, Dao Rhythms flowed, and divine radiance covered the ground.

Spirit Ganoderma and great medicines were clustered in the forest, and occasionally a few fiery red spirit monkeys leaped through the mountains.

Several spirit cranes flew with long cries from above the forest.

It was filled with vitality and vigor, a veritable blessed land of caves.

On the mountainside!

There was a Spiritual Spring waterfall cascading down.

Below the waterfall, there was a pavilion!

Inside the pavilion sat two old men!

One of them, dressed in a black luxurious robe, had a square face and deep eyes, like the starry sea.

He sat on a jade platform, leisurely sipping fragrant tea.

The tea was rich in aroma, and it also emitted an ethereal glow; this was what Old Ancestor of Floating Tudor Hall Gu Yan usually liked the most.

But at this moment, drinking it, he felt no taste at all.

After a long while, Ancestor Gu Yan sighed softly.

His eyes carried a hint of sadness: "Now that the Domain Lord has come to take office, the Human Race, I fear, will once again enter a period of turmoil!"

"Brother Fang, what do you think about this?"

The Brother Fang in Ancestor Gu Yan's mouth was named Old Ancestor Fang Quan!

Throughout the entire Eastern Continent Human Race, there were not many people whom Old Ancestor of Floating Tudor Hall Gu Yan would address as brother.

And Old Ancestor Fang Quan was precisely one of them.

Everyone knew that the Human Race had three Great Saint experts.

Ancestor Gu Yan and Old Ancestor Fang Quan were two of them.

Unlike the somewhat rugged Ancestor Gu Yan, Old Ancestor Fang Quan appeared to have a more ethereal, immortal quality.

His white robe fluttered in the wind, as if he might ascend to immortality with the breeze at any moment.

Facing Ancestor Gu Yan's question, Old Ancestor Fang Quan pondered for a long time before also sighing softly.

His gaze towards the sky was filled with a hint of bewilderment!
