Chapter 2010 - Donghua Heavens

Chapter 2010: Donghua Heavens

Donghua Heavens—the absolute core of the Donghua Domain—was also the strongest among all the continents of the domain. Its terrain was high above the others; hence, the name “Donghua Heavens.”

After the news came out of the Domain Chief’s Manor, it quickly spread toward every other continent within Donghua Domain. As a result, cultivators from the surrounding continents had come to Donghua Heavens, with many others still on their way.

The entire Donghua Heavens seemed extremely festive. It was as if they were holding a feast of Donghua Domain.

Donghua Heavens was the location of Donghua Domain Chief’s Manor, as well as the most powerful continent in the region. There were many powerful forces with countless top-level cultivators, but mega-force principality was still a rarity.

The vast and endless Donghua Heavens did not have many cities. After countless years of development, the entire continent had been built into one cohesive whole with perfect connections. Even the mountains and the ocean regions had been occupied by powerful cultivators, connected to one another without any issues.

Its name may have derived from this design. Donghua Heavens was one entirety, like a massive city without bounds. If it was another continent, it could be divided into hundreds of cities.

But since the Domain Chief’s Manor was here, there was no need for so many distinctive divisions.

The Leng family was a powerful family in Donghua Heavens. Although it was not the strongest, its influence was considerable. With members of the family that were Ninth Realm Renhunag, the family would have been considered top-level on any continent.

But in Donghua Heavens, although it was considered a family of power, it was not at the top level. There were many families or sects in Donghua Heavens that were more powerful than the Leng family.

At this time, the cultivators of the Leng family were busy with their own affairs. Somewhere in a courtyard, several children and a young man were playing, a scene of tranquil beauty.

However, a brilliant light appeared at the Leng family’s compound, shot into the sky. Suddenly there was a very strong fluctuation of the spatial Great Path in the compound grounds. A group of people in the courtyard looked up and exclaimed, “My goodness, what is that?”

Among the family members, a group of cultivators levitated into the sky, looking at that golden beam of light rushing into the sky. Some elders who knew what was going on looked sharply with their eyes and whispered, “They are here.”

“Who?” someone asked.

“Cultivators of Wangshen Watchtower from the Dongxiao Continent,” said the man, as that golden light beam fell from the sky. A group of men emerged from it. It was as if it had materialized out of thin air, descending into Leng’s territory.

“Clan lord.”

“Clan lord…”

Below, many called out and saw an elderly man leap into the sky to greet those that came from the void. He laughed loudly. “Everyone, welcome!”

The group that arrived were Ye Futian, Zong Chan, and the others; they had come to Donghua Heavens earlier than expected.

However, this time they did not travel by road but took advantage of the grand matrix of space.

Donghua Heavens was the main continent, and at Donghua Domain Chief’s Manor, there was a supreme grand matrix of space that led to other main continents, which was much more convenient.

In addition, all the top forces would try their best to create a Great Path of Space so they could come here at any time. Wangshen Watchtower was no exception. There was a portal in Donghua Heavens, and it was located at the Leng family. They had established a super-powerful matrix here, which could descend directly to Donghua Heavens from Wangshen Watchtower.

The clan lord of the Leng family was an elder. A middle-aged man stood beside him with a smile. This man was the next in line of the Leng family, Sky Sword Leng Kuangsheng, an extremely well-known character. He had cultivated at Wangshen Watchtower and associated with the Millet Emperor. Because of this relationship, Wangshen Watchtower’s teleportation matrix to Donghua Heavens was built inside the Leng family compound.

Above the grand matrix, Ye Futian and his party stood there with Li Changsheng in front, who looked at the old clan lord and smiled. “Clan lord Leng is much too kind. We came without notice. Please pardon our disturbance.”

“You are too humble.” Clan lord Leng said with a smile, “You are all Kuangsheng’s brothers. There’s no disturbance to speak of. I was just thinking that after the news, the Domain Chief’s Manor should personally dispatch a messenger to inform Wangshen Watchtower and that you may be here. I was prepared to see you all and was very much looking forward to it.”

“Good to see Senior Brother Li again.” Sky Sword Leng Kuangsheng stood there with a smile. He had thick eyebrows and deep-set eyes with a square jaw. He looked mighty and authoritative, and he inspired respect from those who laid eyes on him. Just him standing there was enough to give people a sense of awe. The name Sky Sword was by no means a vain moniker.

“Junior Brother Leng,” Li Changsheng said with a smile, “Long time no see. You are almost catching up to my realm. No wonder I have not seen you cultivating at Wangshen Watchtower all these years.”

“How can you say that, brother!? I have been traveling across the continents of Divine Prefecture all these years to cultivate and comprehend. It hasn’t been long since I came back here. I didn’t expect to get together with my brothers and everyone else so soon, what a happy happenstance.” Sky Sword Leng Kuangsheng laughed and said, “This time, I am going to drink to my heart’s content.”

“Okay, Kuangsheng, let’s not chitchat while hanging out here.” The old clan lord laughed. Leng Kuangsheng caught himself with an embarrassed smile. “Brothers, please come with me. The banquet is being prepared. We will drink a bit first.”

“All right then.” Everyone smiled and nodded as the group followed Leng Kuangsheng to the banquet hall of the Leng family. Chief lord Leng waved his hand, “Everyone, please take a seat.”

Everyone found a place to sit down, and someone next to them was serving wine. They saw that Sky Sword was looked at Zong Chan with a smile, who was sitting across from Li Changsheng and said, “Brother Zong, when I left years ago, you were still in the realm of Middle Renhuang. Now you are already in the Upper level, and your Great Path is still perfect. Even in Donghua Heavens, I hear people mention you from time to time, saying that Zong Chan of Wangshen Watchtower is no less than the Desolation of Badlands Divine Palace and Sword Goddess’s eldest disciple, Jiang Yueli.”

“They have already achieved their fame for a long time, while I still have some ways to go,” Zong Chan responded.

“Well, at this level, it’s just a matter of waiting. Now, I am afraid I am no longer a suitable opponent for you either,” Sky Sword Leng Kuangsheng said, laughing.

Zong Chan shook his head and smiled without responding. What the other said was the truth. His strength, by now, should be well above that of Senior Brother Sky Sword.

“I heard that there were some disturbances on that side of Divine Ocean Continent, but I didn’t get any specifics. What’s going on?” Leng Kuangsheng asked again. A few months ago, Emperor Xi crossing the divine tribulation had caused a sensation in the entire Donghua Domain. Everyone knew about it, so the news of trouble also spread, even to Donghua Heavens.

“The grievances between the ancient royal family of Yan and Wangshen Watchtower have been for a long time, but this time, Lingxiao Palace also got involved for some reason,” Li Changsheng responded.

“Lingxiao Palace and Wangshen Watchtower have never had any ill will towards each other, and they actually got involved,” said Clan Lord Leng with a frown. Lingxiao Palace was a major force of power in Donghua Heavens. If the conflict intensified, it was definitely not good news for Wangshen Watchtower.

“I don’t know the reason at this time. We came to Donghua Heavens to see if they will do anything,” Li Changsheng continued.

Clan Lord Leng nodded without saying much. “Which one of you is Ye Liunian?”

As he was speaking, he surveyed the crowd and stopped when he saw Ye Futian.

“I am.” Ye Futian smiled.

Clan Lord Leng look at Ye Futian seriously, with a hint of admiration in his eyes. “One sword strike to defeat Yan Dongyang—the prince of the ancient royal family of Yan—and crossed the realm in the battle to defeat Linghe—the young master of the Lingxiao Palace. Wangsheng Watchtower will produce yet another outstanding figure. I have a feeling that there may be three awesome figures in the future of Wangshen Watchtower.”

“Elder is much too generous,” Ye Futian said modestly. “And, I’m not considered a disciple of Wangshen Watchtower. However, senior brother Li and senior brother Zong will be able to inherit cultivation from the Millet Emperor.”

Clan Lord Leng showed a look of surprise. So, he wasn’t a disciple of the Millet Emperor.

Perhaps it was because of Eastern Deity Island.

“How is Donghua Heavens? This once every 50-year event will be extremely festive,” said Li Changsheng.

“Of course. All of Donghua Heavens is in a jubilant mood. Many cultivators are looking forward to it. This time around, the Domain Chief’s Manor will also be open to recruiting cultivators. Many people are aching to become a member of the Domain Chief’s Manor.” Clan Lord Leng continued, “In addition, all the top figures from all continents will gather in Donghua Heavens. By then, we will be able to see many excellent battles and see how the Chief will choose.”

“We have to ask for the Lord’s opinion. Liunian wanted to cultivate at Domain Chief’s Manor,” Li Changsheng said, which surprised the clan lord a great deal. Ye Futian did not enter Wangshen Watchtower but planned to enter the Domain Chief’s Manor for cultivation?

He couldn’t really understand this. Was it also because of Eastern Deity Island?

“Sure.” Without thinking much about it, he nodded and promised, “I will see what I can do. But you should know that no matter what, any slight movement will be known to everyone.”

“That’s true enough.” Li Changsheng nodded. “Then, we will just have to wait quietly!”
