47: Qingtian Realm Holy Land Servant, Han Feng

As a series of orders were issued from within the Jun Family, the Jun Family's collateral branches in the Upper Thousand Realms began to operate.

Due to the existence of the realm barrier, one could only descend to the Lower Realm layer by layer. The most convenient method was through the Heaven-Connecting Pillar.

Diagram of the Heaven-Connecting Pillar. Each flashing dot is a Small World.

The Three Thousand Dao Provinces are not parallel existences but are intertwined. Connecting the Three Thousand Realms is a Heaven-Connecting Pillar. This pillar has existed since the beginning of creation, directly penetrating three worlds. The lowest world connected by the pillar is the Lower Thousand Provinces. Other worlds at the same height as the Lower Thousand Provinces are collectively referred to as the Lower Thousand Provinces.

The middle section of the pillar is the Middle Thousand Provinces. Regardless of the world, if it is parallel to the Middle Thousand Provinces, it is also called the Middle Thousand Provinces. The top of the pillar is the Upper Thousand Provinces, and above the Upper Thousand Provinces is the Ten Directions Immortal Court.

The three worlds where the pillar is located are called the Heaven-Connecting Realm, a special territory. If one wishes to go to a certain Dao Province in the Lower Realm, one must first go to the Heaven-Connecting Lower Realm, then find the inter-realm teleportation array of that world, and teleport from the Heaven-Connecting Lower Realm.

The Heaven-Connecting Upper Realm naturally has Jun Family influence. At this moment, they were somewhat bewildered by an order.

Within the collateral Family of the Jun Family in the Upper Realm, a group of high-ranking officials were suddenly recalled urgently.

"If someone from the main Family wants to descend to the Lower Realm, then just arrange it. Why call us here?"

"Exactly. It's common for main Family Disciples to descend to the Lower Realm for training. Could it be that the training location this time is dangerous, and they want us to send more guards?"

"Could it be that one of the Ten Paths from the main Family is descending to the Lower Realm?"

"Last time, the main Family's Second Dao Child returned to the Ten Directions Immortal Court, and it wasn't as urgent as this, was it?"

The Elders in the hall discussed animatedly. Although they were just a collateral branch, those present who could guard the Heaven-Connecting Upper Realm were naturally Great Emperors.

"If it really were one of the Ten Paths, that would be great," the man sitting at the very top said, rubbing his forehead and sighing helplessly.

He then threw out the golden imperial decree in his hand. Instantly, a golden light enveloped the entire hall, gradually forming a line of text.

"Heavenly Emperor's Imperial Decree?!"

An Elder immediately exclaimed in disbelief upon seeing the light.

The others also looked shocked.

Those present were all Great Emperors. An imperial decree from any Great Emperor would naturally not make them react this way, but this light was different; it clearly came from the hands of a Heavenly Emperor.

"Three days later, the Divine Child will descend to the Lower Realm. You are commanded to escort him to the Qing Tian Realm. Should there be any mishap, this Heavenly Emperor will personally pay a visit."

"..."

Unconsciously, someone read out the line of text, and then they all stared at each other.

The Divine Child descends to the Lower Realm?

If there's any mishap, the Heavenly Emperor will personally pay a visit?

At this point, the Elders present finally understood why the Family Head was so anxious.

Who wouldn't be anxious about this!

The Family Head looked at the Elders, who were deep in thought, coughed, and then spoke: "Well, everyone, what do you say? The Divine Child just celebrated his tenth birthday a few years ago and is now only fourteen, but he is the main Family's Divine Child, and we cannot afford to be negligent. The reason I called you all here in such a hurry is to discuss how to avoid being negligent."

"The Old Ancestor only said that the Divine Child would descend to the Lower Realm and that we should escort him, but he didn't say how to escort him. Should it be discreet or grand?"

Indeed, as soon as these words were spoken, the Elders present snapped out of their thoughts and fell into contemplation. After a moment, they began to express their views.

"First, have the Disciples investigate where the Qing Tian Realm is. That's the most important thing."

"Starting with 'Qing,' it seems to be a realm in the Lower Thousand Realms. I wonder why the Divine Child wants to train in such a world. Have someone investigate if there are any opportunities there so we can prepare."

"The Lower Thousand Realms has no Jun Family influence. Should we send people to establish a presence?"

"No, we should not act rashly on matters the Old Ancestor has not instructed."

"I say, for the Divine Child's travels, unless specifically mentioned, keep it low-key. The less attention, the better. But it can't be truly small-scale; we can't let the Divine Child look down on us."

Everyone spoke animatedly. It was clearly just one sentence, but those present wished they could dissect it word by word to analyze the Heavenly Emperor's command, truly being overly cautious.

But this was the Divine Child's journey, and the Old Ancestor himself had personally spoken—an unprecedented event. They couldn't afford to be careless.

After some discussion, they reached a conclusion: three days later, all the Elders and even the Family Head would personally welcome and escort the Divine Child. Afterward, all Supreme Realm Disciples in the Family would be gathered to personally accompany the Divine Child to the Lower Realm.

The Upper Thousand Realms was thrown into turmoil by the Jun Family's sudden various movements, with everyone speculating if the Jun Family was going to war again.

The Jun Family's branch stationed in the Heaven-Connecting Middle Realm also received the news and began to gather the Supremes in their Family, preparing to personally send the Divine Child to the Lower Realm.

For a time, both the Heaven-Connecting Upper and Middle Realms were in an uproar.

Meanwhile, in the Qing Tian Realm.

In Guan Nan City, within the Guan Xue Holy Land, more than a dozen Disciples with malicious eyes were ganging up on a dusty young man, punching and kicking him. Mockery was plastered on each of their faces. Standing nearby was a strong, burly man, watching the scene with satisfaction, as if enjoying a good show.

"Han Feng! You've somewhat forgotten your place. As a Utility Disciple who sweeps floors, how dare you covet the Saintess?"

"Just be good at being trash, don't be ungrateful."

As the burly man spoke, he gestured for the others to step back. He slowly walked forward, his right foot slowly gathering blue spiritual Qi, and then he kicked hard at the young man's abdomen on the ground! Han Feng hadn't even had time to catch his breath before he was struck by the sudden immense force. He was sent flying uncontrollably, crashing heavily onto the ground in the distance.

"Han Feng, next time I see you lingering in front of the Saintess, it won't be as simple as just a beating. The Saintess is the woman my big brother has his eyes on. Just sweep your floor properly. A toad shouldn't dream of eating swan meat."

"Hey, Big Brother, speaking of which, this Han Feng is really useless. He's been a Utility Disciple for several years and is still in the Five Extremes Realm. He's truly a disgrace to our Outer Sect."

"Exactly, exactly! If I were him, I'd have found a place to kill myself already!"

"Pfft..."

Listening to the sneers of the departing group, Han Feng struggled to get up, his eyes black. In a daze, he couldn't hold back and directly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

He collapsed to the ground, pulling open his clothes to check himself, and immediately gasped.

"These beasts, they hit so hard. They really want to beat me to death."

"If I hadn't Transmigrated here, I'd have been dead in their hands a long time ago!"
