The Legend of Futian

After Leng Yan received instruction from Ye Futian, he went back to cultivate. After sitting in meditation for a day, when he emerged from cultivation the next day, his temperament had changed greatly. He had a breakthrough in his cultivation, and his blade techniques were more refined. He had clearly made considerable progress. Even Leng Xi was a little regretful that she didn’t ask Ye Futian for help.

She was there next to them yesterday, but she had concentrated on Li Changsheng’s instructions and ignored Ye Futian’s instructions to Leng Yan. Although she later asked Leng Yan for details, she couldn’t quite understand the ideas that Leng Yan tried to express for some reason.

On this day, many members of the Leng family gathered, seemingly waiting for someone’s arrival.

Outside the family compound, in the void, a group of cultivators arrived by air. Everyone in the group had an extraordinary temperament and an elegant demeanor. Each one of them was a notable figure in their own right.

Seeing their appearance, the genius talent who was the lead—Leng Kuangsheng—revealed a smile. As the group descended, he smiled and said, “Welcome, everyone, to the Leng family.”

“The elder is too kind. We come this time to trouble you with some business of ours. Please forgive us in advance.” Everyone in the group bowed slightly to pay their respect. They were humble and polite. The visitors were all in Renhuang Realm as far as their cultivation was concerned. The empress who stood in the middle of the group was eye-catching both in looks and temperament. She was like a goddess out of this world, and yet, she had a sense of sharpness about her.

“We are friends here, no need for formality. I think you all know my brother.” The woman pointed to Leng Kuangsheng and introduced him to everyone. She was a lady of the Leng family, the sister of Sky Sword, Leng Qinghan.

“They were my fellow cultivators,” Leng Qinghan said to Leng Kuangsheng.

Leng Kuangsheng knew that, of course, and turned around to gesture. “Please, everyone.”

The group walked inside the family compound. The Leng family had already prepared a banquet like the one they had prepared last time when they hosted the cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower, which was a grand feast. The Chief of the Leng family was also in attendance. After the two parties greeted each other, they took their seats.

Some young members of the family also arrived, including Leng Xi and Leng Yan. However, they could only sit in the back and watch those visitors. They knew exactly where these people came from.

However, although everyone was seated, no one moved, and there were still a lot of empty seats left, which seemed to have been prepared for others.

“Go and ask them to come now.” The Leng family chief commanded. Someone immediately bowed and left to follow the order. The people who needed to be invited were naturally referring to the cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower. This banquet was, in fact, an opportunity for today’s visitors to meet with the cultivators of Wangshen Watchtower. Previously, they had already mentioned this to Li Changsheng and Zong Chan.

Before long, the cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower came to the banquet site, with Ye Futian. Many had visited before, but never with such a grand reception, so he never did come. After all, many had been here to visit Zong Chan.

But this time, it was different. The people who came this time were not some ordinary folks, so he wanted to come and see for himself.

After Ye Futian and the others arrived, the visitors looked up at them but sat quietly without moving. Leng Qinghan stood up and greeted them, “Leng Qinghan greets all of you.”

“No need to be so formal; Kuangsheng is our peer, and the Leng family has been friendly with Wangshen Watchtower. So, Miss, you do not need to be so formal,” Li Changsheng said with a smile.

“Mmm.” Leng Qinghan nodded slightly before sitting down.

Li Changsheng and the others sat and glanced at the group of people around Leng Qinghan. They nodded to Li Changsheng and the others. “We heard that friends from Wangshen Watchtower were here with the Leng family, so we came with Qinghan to visit, and also to meet you. We have long heard of the fame of Wangshen Watchtower but rarely had an opportunity to chat. It is a great honor to see everyone today.”

“You are much too kind.” Li Changsheng smiled and said, “Donghua Academy is famous as the premier Holy Land in Donghua Domain. It is our honor to meet the cultivators from Donghua Academy today.”

The exchanges of both parties were quite polite, especially those from Li Changsheng. When he spoke, his tone was gentle and even, which had a calming effect. It was as if he was an expert in complimenting the other. Obviously, he was quite experienced in these sorts of things.

Those who had arrived were the disciples cultivating at the premier academy of Donghua Domain.

Donghua Academy bore the name Donghua, so its background needed no further explanation. It had the best cultivation resources of Donghua Domain, backed by Domain Chief’s Manor. It came into being by order of Donghuang the Great to preach to the world and grew rapidly. The honorary College Chief of Donghua Academy was also the chief of Donghua Domain Chief’s Manor.

Even the son of Domain Chief’s Manor—that peerless talent—was also cultivating at Donghua Academy.

Among the three major principalities of Donghua Heavens, the Domain Chief’s Manor needed no further introduction. The other two were Donghua Academy and Ling Xiao Palace. Except for Ling Xiao Palace, the other two were somewhat different in nature. One was a political ruling power of the Donghua Domain, while the other was a force in preaching.

Furthermore, these two principalities themselves were inextricably linked, as their existences were dependent on the will of the Great Emperor.

The Leng family had produced two genius talents back in the days, and they were brother and sister. After Sky Sword Leng Kuangsheng traveled throughout the world, he settled down at Wangshen Watchtower and cultivated for several years. Years. On the other hand, his sister, Leng Qinghan, chose a relatively simple and effective path by cultivating at Donghua Academy.

Both Donghua Academy and Wangshen Watchtower were considered major principalities in Donghua Domain, but if one were to speak of history, Donghua Academy was clearly a step higher.

However, the difference was that the visitors from Donghua Academy did not represent the top figures of Donghua Academy. Those from Wangshen Watchtower were the most elite group of people under the Millet Emperor. Therefore, at best, it was Donghua Academy that came to pay the cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower a visit.

At this time, the group from Donghua Academy had their eyes on Zong Chan, as if to scrutinize him.

After Zong Chan’s breakthrough, there were now four awesome figures in Donghua Domain under the major figureheads. The one from Donghua Academy needed no other introduction. With a reputation of being the first genius talent of Donghua Domain, he was destined to be a true peerless cultivator in talent and background.

Aside from that person, Jiang Yueli, the chief disciple of the Sword Goddess, was the most well-known among them, with a level cultivation in the Eighth Realm; he was only a step away from giant figures. Some even claimed that Jiang Yueli’s strength was no less than those reigning top figures.

After that, Desolation and Zong Chan.

Now, some people ranked these four. The one from Donghua Academy was the first, Jiang Yueli second, Desolation third, and Zong Chan fourth.

These four people would continue in the footsteps of the previous generation and reach the top. Unless they perish before then, such a day would almost be a certainty.

Subconsciously, they were comparing Zong Chan with that man in their minds. Zong Chan’s temperament was extraordinary, almost as that of a true Master. However, compared to the sense that the other man exuded, it was still quite a ways off.

“Cultivating in the academy, Zong Chan’s name was mentioned a lot recently, and now I finally saw him in person,” a Renhuang said with a smile.

“I haven’t done anything and don’t deserve this fame. And from Donghua Academy, no less. I’m embarrassed,” Zong Chan responded.

“If it weren’t for Qinghan, we wouldn’t be able to come here to see you all. Truth be told, there are many cultivators in Donghua Academy who would really like to see you all too.” The cultivator from Donghua Academy said with a smile, “If you are free, would everyone from Wangshen Watchtower be willing to pay our academy a visit?”

Li Changsheng looked at Zong Chan because those words were directed at him.

Ye Futian sat there quietly without speaking, watching everything in silence. With Zong Chan here, nothing had to do with him.

“I have also looked up to Donghua Academy for a long time, and if the opportunity allows, I must visit,” Zong Chan responded with a smile.

“After the chief’s order, all cultivators are now on their way to Donghua Heavens. Donghua Academy will also be the center of this gathering of unprecedented talents. It is also an important place that you definitely need to visit now that you are here in Donghua Heavens.”

Zong Chan nodded; he did want to go. At this time, Ye Futian heard a voice, “What does Brother Ye think?”

Ye Futian glanced at Li Changsheng, and thought that Li Changsheng was a curious character. He said, “Is senior brother referring to these cultivators or the matter of going to Donghua Academy?”

“Whichever one you think it is,” Li Changsheng responded with a smile.

“These cultivators don’t understand, and there is nothing more to be said. As for Donghua Academy, I would like to see it,” said Ye Futian.

“Junior Brother Ye should go and experience it. Donghua Academy is extraordinary and has a considerable number of treasures. One of the treasures is a magic mirror that can attest to the rank of the Divine Wheel of the Great Path. You have several Divine Wheels. Don’t you want to take a closer look?” Li Changsheng said temptingly.

“Is it really as incredible as it sounds?” Ye Futian showed a look of amazement.

“Mmm.” Li Changsheng nodded. “In the Divine Prefecture, there are the distinction of perfection and imperfection in Divine Wheels, with no distinction in rank. However, in reality, even the most perfect Divine Wheels still have ranks. Every cultivator is different, and that mirror can assess the strength of the Divine Wheel. Countless cultivators have already gone to be examined. Now in Donghua Heavens, and even the entire Donghua Domain, the strongest Divine Wheel ever tested belonged to the son of the current Domain Chief. He is also known as the strongest man of his generation. Donghua Domain has placed high expectations on him. I was talking to brother Zong about if we should go and visit when people from Donghua Academy have arrived by themselves.”

To this, Ye Futian nodded!
