3424 The Phoenix Sovereign
Xuanyuan Mo Ze gave them a brief glance but didn’t say anything. Feng Jiu nodded and said, “Yes, please guard the path here! Familiarise yourselves with the place, and if you have any problems you can’t solve in the future, you can find me.”
“Yes, ” The two of them replied with a bow and then vanished into the Immortal Path.
When they saw this, the people below couldn’t help but exclaim and discuss it among themselves. Once Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu descended from the sky and headed for the Sect Master, some people couldn’t contain their curiosity and tried to see what kind of Immortal Path they had opened up, only to find that they couldn’t enter at all.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu made their way to the place where the sect leader was waiting, and they all went to the main peak to discuss matters. Looking at the two in front of him, the Sect Master asked, “So, from now on, Si Que and Mu Xin will stay there?”
“Mm. They can cultivate there while guarding the Immortal Path. I don’t trust anyone else with this task,” Feng Jiu replied. “Now that the Immortal Path is open, we will also leave for a while. I hope the Sect Master won’t be displeased since we’ve transferred them from the sect to guard the Immortal Path.”
The Sect Master looked at her and sighed. “Phoenix Sovereign, you’re being too modest. You’ve arranged everything perfectly, and I have no objections. Moreover, guarding the Immortal Path is much more important than being our sect’s Venerables. Besides, their cultivation will benefit greatly from being there.”
They talked for a time at the main peak before returning to their caves to rest before leaving the next day.
As night fell, Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu once again headed towards the Immortal Path. There was no darkness inside the road, simply daylight. The Immortal Path stretched endlessly as if there was no end in sight.
Si Que and Mu Xin detected their presence as soon as they entered the immortal road and hurriedly approached, bowing respectfully before them. “Master.”
“Mm, “the two replied, and as they walked from the upper realm’s Immortal Path to the mortal realm’s, Xuanyuan Mo Ze glanced at Feng Jiu and asked, “Do you need to rest before we go on, or can we do it now?”
Feng Jiu chuckled. “Even though it consumed a lot of spirit energy, we rested a bit when we returned to the cave, and now our spirit energy has fully recovered. It shouldn’t be difficult for me to descend to the world of mortals.”
As she talked, she stood on the bright immortal road and looked up into the dark sky of the mortal realms with a flicker in her eyes. Back then, only one of the four guardians who watch over the four corners of the mortal realm had shown up.
When she thought about herself in the past, even though she had a lofty heart and couldn’t hide her arrogance, she had to admit that she was insignificant at that time. Now that many years had passed, she had gone from being a person from a small ninth-grade country to a Divine King-level Strong Exponent figure in the Upper Realm. The hurdles and difficulties she faced along the way were by no means trivial.
However, this was the very reason she had grown so quickly, eventually reaching a height at which she could look down on everything…
Xuanyuan Mo Ze didn’t approach, but stood not far behind Feng Jiu, watching. Si Que and Mu Xin also stood behind Xuanyuan Mo Ze, observing silently. They didn’t know what their master intended to do, but judging by the situation, it seemed like it was no small matter.
As the realisation dawned on their faces, their hearts began to shake fiercely…
