Chapter 1135: Submission of Xuan Prefecture
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In his previous life, Lu Xuan had grown all the way to become a Golden Immortal before he finally had the chance to participate in the war on the battlefield, which was extremely cruel.
The destiny of Great Luo Golden Immortals was not much better. However, there were also many opportunities on the battlefield of the worlds. This was because so many people had fallen since ancient times. From Golden Immortals to Great Luo Golden Immortals, from Immortal Kings to Immortal Emperors, everyone had fallen on the battlefield of the worlds.
These fallen powers would leave behind many opportunities. At the same time, there were also a lot of people who rose up because of various fortuitous encounters.
Lu Xuan had gained a lot of benefits from the wars of the worlds, so he gradually became an immortal king in the war.
However, it was a very long war!
This life was obviously different. At the beginning of the war, he already had the combat strength of an Immortal King. Many things would be much easier to handle!
A hundred years was enough time. In addition, he had obtained so much wealth and resources from the Immortal King and the Ninth Night Immortal King. It was enough for him to cultivate.
If the Shi family thought that he was easy to bully, he would let them know his true power.
However, just as Lu Xuan was about to announce that he was going to enter seclusion and ignore the affairs of the world for a hundred years, more than ten great Luo Golden Immortals from the Xuan State came directly to the Great Void Pavilion to visit him.
The person in the lead was none other than the leader of the Xuan State’s Nandou Sect, the Venerable Nandou.
Venerable Nandou was not the strongest among the dozen or so people. However, he was the only one who had ever interacted with Lu Xuan.
Back when Lu Xuan had fought Zhao Jing, the latter had broken through the world passage and released the hell demon. It was Venerable Nandou who had taken care of the funeral.
“Greetings. May I know why you are here?”
Lu Xuan sat cross-legged on the cloud bed and looked at the group of Golden Immortals from the Xuan Prefecture. Most likely, all the big and small golden immortals from the prefecture should be here.
The Xuan Prefecture was located in a remote area. Among the three thousand prefectures under the Heaven Court, it was ranked relatively low. Therefore, there were not many Big Luo Golden Immortals in the Xuan State. There were only a dozen of them in total. Now, all of them were gathered here.
“Greetings, Master Lu!” Venerable Nandou and the others hurriedly cupped their hands and their fists as they greeted.
Everyone glanced at Venerable Nandou. Clearly, they hoped that he would do something. Meanwhile, he seemed to have mentally prepared himself, so he immediately stepped forward and said, “The reason why we have come this time is to express our support for you. Regardless of what the Shi family is like, the entire Xuan Prefecture will support you.”
Venerable Nandou looked at Lu Xuan. His expression did not change, but he was extremely emotional in his heart. It had only been a hundred years. Back then, Lu Xuan, who still needed to rely on himself to settle his funeral matters, had now become a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Moreover, Lu Xuan’s battle results were extremely resounding in the Xuan State, far surpassing that of other regions.
Although he was an ascendant from the lower realm, the first place he ascended to was in Xuan Prefecture, which explained why many people in the place faintly regarded him as one of their own.
As a remote region of the Heavenly Court, the Xuan State had never produced such a supreme figure who could shine in the heavenly realm.
One could imagine how huge the commotion would be. The full moon sect had now become the hottest sect in the Xuan Prefecture, although its strength was not worth mentioning in the prefecture, who asked them to have an extremely awesome Grand Elder.
That was Lu Xuan’s direct descendant!
“I see. Lu Xuan, thank you all for your support!” Lu Xuan said with a smile. Naturally, he understood the thoughts of the living beings in the Xuan Prefecture. After all, there had never been such a powerful character in the history of the Xuan Prefecture.
There might be more than 3,000 prefectures in the Heaven Realm, but it was impossible for there to be thousands of immortal kings. If they were divided equally among each prefecture, there might not even be enough for one.
However, he was also happy to have such support. To him, this was also a good thing. He could completely turn the Xuan Prefecture into his own foundation. Any immortal king, immortal emperor, or even celestial venerable would have their own foundation. They would not be alone.
“Other than that, we represent all the sects in the Xuan State and are willing to follow your lead!”
Immediately, Venerable Nandou continued to speak.
The other Great Luo Gold Immortals also nodded. Regardless of whether they were willing or not, Lu Xuan was already a peerless figure. He was not just a little stronger than them, but an existence that could defeat them easily.
For this reason, Lu Xuan would not occupy their positions in the Xuan Prefecture; both parties were not on the same level.
Undeniably, Lu Xuan’s existence could also bring many benefits for the Xuan Prefecture.
After all, not all of the 3,000 prefectures in the Heaven Realm had immortal kings. Hence, the prefectures with immortal kings could easily obtain many beneficial policies.
There was no need to doubt the many benefits!
And the prefectures without immortal kings were much worse. Everything had to wait for those prefectures with Immortal Kings to choose first before they could eat some leftovers.
The Xuan Prefecture was even worse off. Not only did they not have immortal kings, there also had never been any immortal kings in history. They didn’t have any strong connections and couldn’t even eat leftovers.
Now that Lu Xuan finally appeared, they naturally had to hurry up and suck up to him!
Fortunately, Lu Xuan’s rise was much earlier and didn’t clash with them. If not, the situation would be undesirable.
As for the rumors that Lu Xuan had used some special methods to kill Immortal Kings, they didn’t take it to heart. Even if he used some special forbidden methods, it was only because he had the ability. If it was an ordinary person, how would he have the strength to do so.
Most importantly, even if the forbidden methods weren’t considered, Lu Xuan’s strength was still second to none in the prefecture.
In the knowledge of many people, with such strength, as long as he did not die midway, he would at least reserve the position of an immortal king in the future.
“I understand. Since everyone is praising me, then I, Lu Xuan, will not give up my position!” Lu Xuan said with a smile.
Joy appeared on the faces of Venerable Nandou and the others. However, they also had a strange feeling in their hearts. If it was a few years ago, they would not have thought that they would be willing to submit to someone. They simply did not dare to imagine it would happen.
“Everyone, please return home. I will be in closed-door cultivation for the next hundred years. I will not see any guests for the next hundred years. If it is not an urgent matter, do not come and see me!” Lu Xuan said.
“Yes, we do not dare to disturb your closed-door cultivation!” Venerable Nandou hurriedly replied. They had all heard that Lu Xuan and Shi Tatian had been grounded by the Moon Emperor for a hundred years.
They naturally did not dare to court death and provoke the emperor’s decree.
What would happen a hundred years later? It was probably another story!
