"Where exactly is the Bloodline Plaza?" Chu Feng asked.
"Don't worry about that. I've already passed the information to you. Tomorrow I'll personally take you there. Rest assured… I won't let you be late," Ling Xinian said.
"Thank you, Sister Xinian." After saying this, Chu Feng couldn't help but glance out the window.
"Finally… I can leave, can't I?"
The Seven Worlds Holy Land was fine. It had plenty of resources and opportunities, but Chu Feng didn't like it here.
So he was looking forward to tomorrow.
…
What Chu Feng didn't know was that, for tomorrow, there was another existence within the Seven Worlds Holy Land who was equally eager.
And that person was none other than the current master of the Seven Worlds Holy Land.
The Seven Worlds Mansion Lord. Over the past two days, he had personally investigated the cause of Ling Canghai's death but had been unable to find the true culprit.
Though irritated, he was very much looking forward to tomorrow.
At this moment, he stood atop the vast sea of clouds within the Holy Land, surveying from on high the numerous formations and treasures scattered throughout the compound.
But in his hand, he was rotating that sphere — the one containing flowing seven-colored liquid, the orb he had obtained from the rift of the Age of Gods.
"It's almost time."
"Compared to the first matter, announcing this second matter puts this old man in an even more difficult position."
With that, he looked down at the sphere.
"Age of Gods, I hope your prophecy comes true."
"Don't let this old man destroy his reputation for nothing."
The Seven Worlds Mansion Lord placed great hope in this.
Because back in the Age of Gods, he had received a directive — he was required to announce two earth-shaking events to the vast martial cultivation world.
But of these two matters, there wasn't really one that the Mansion Lord actually wanted to announce.
The first major event was the use of the Seven Worlds Decree to summon talented young cultivators into the Holy Land.
He had always believed that those outside the Seven Worlds Holy Land were lowly existences, and naturally had no desire to let outsiders join.
But he had done it anyway.
He issued the Seven Worlds Decree, inviting those he looked down upon into the Seven Worlds Holy Land.
But the second announcement came with conditions.
First, in accordance with the first matter, the entrance trial had to be held as normal.
And the sphere had to meet the required standard before proceeding further.
It was Chu Feng's arrival that had finally brought the sphere to that threshold.
Yet the Seven Worlds Mansion Lord still harbored some doubt.
In fact, because he didn't fully trust the directive from the Age of Gods, the Mansion Lord had deliberately sent Chu Feng and the others to the dangerous Nine Heavens Secret Land for their practical assessment.
If Chu Feng and the others had died, he would have been spared the need to announce the second matter.
But unexpectedly, Chu Feng had actually made it out alive.
It was nothing short of a miracle!!!
This had begun to convince him that the directive from the Age of Gods might be correct.
Now the entrance trial had been completed successfully.
The first place winner had been determined.
Tomorrow was the time to announce the second matter.
This matter was even harder for him to bring himself to say, but he had decided to go through with it.
He wanted to take a gamble.
Because, according to the directive from the Age of Gods, once both major events were announced, his Seven Worlds Holy Land would receive unprecedented glory.
That was the reason he was willing to go against his own wishes and sacrifice his reputation.
The glory of the Seven Worlds Holy Land!!!
He was willing to give up everything for it.
…
The next day, Ling Xinian brought Chu Feng to the Bloodline Plaza.
