Chapter 366: Chapter 184: Divine Power Fruit of Heaven-Deceiving Techniques, Master of the Dragon Gate, World in Turmoil (Part 3)

’Xu Guang is coming back, how will you handle yourself then?’

Handle myself?

Handle myself, damn it!

He’s now the Dragon Gate Sect Leader. According to custom and rules, when he meets Xu Guang alone, he must pay respects.

A year...

How could so many things happen in just a year?

...

The news of the battle outside Chuanbei Prefecture spread like ripples thrown into a calm lake, quickly disseminating throughout Zouchuan Dao, even extending to Yongzhou, Qing Province, South Wind Dao, and other places.

All forces related to the Dragon Gate also received the news.

Wanhua Institute, in a quiet room with wafting sandalwood fragrance.

Master Fuqing sat behind the desk, lightly twisting a jade seal with her delicate fingers, listening to the news brought by an Outer Disciple from the Law Enforcement Hall.

Recently, she acquired a Holy Body Manuscript and had been in seclusion. If not for this disciple bringing the token from the Law Enforcement Hall, she wouldn’t have met him at all.

Upon hearing that the Law Enforcement Hall conveyed Jin Qishan’s jade order for her to represent Jiufeng Mountain at the event in Chuanbei Prefecture in three days, her fingers twirling the seal paused slightly.

"Who did you say... the new Dragon Gate Sect Leader is!?"

The disciple knew about the relationship between Xu Guang and Master Fuqing, and looked at her with reverence, "Sect Leader Xu Guang."

"Alright, I understand."

Master Fuqing’s voice showed little emotion, but deep within her tranquil eyes, a storm was brewing.

She had thought about Xu Guang’s extraordinary potential since she first met him, believing his future achievements would be no less than hers. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have taken him as a disciple. But she could never have imagined that in less than three years, Xu Guang could rise from an Innate to his current status.

People call the geniuses among geniuses "heavenly prodigies," but what about Xu Guang?

Master Fuqing sat back down, "How did Floating Light become the Dragon Gate Sect Leader?"

This matter has already spread widely in the Jianghu, and the Dragon Gate has no intention of concealing it. Perhaps only Master Fuqing in seclusion is unaware; anyone in Jiufeng Mountain with any information source would know by now.

"Sect Leader Xu Guang at Dragon Slayer Mountain outside Chuanbei Prefecture killed Master Nanxuan, who impersonated Sect Leader Fu Zhuoxiao of the Dragon Gate, and was jointly elected by many Dragon Gate seniors as the Master of the Dragon Gate."

Master Fuqing suddenly stood up, "He killed Nanxuan!?"

"Absolutely true! The Dragon Gate has already announced it publicly, and Nanxuan’s body is still displayed outside Chuanbei Prefecture City."

Master Fuqing remained silent.

The disciple spoke softly.

"Elder Jin said the new Dragon Gate Sect Leader’s succession is a major event, and you need to prepare a fitting gift, which the Law Enforcement Hall will strive to find."

Master Fuqing let out a snort, "Go ask Jin Qishan if he’s willing to humble himself and apologize?"

Ah!?

The disciple’s mouth gaped, trembling all over.

Can he really convey these words back?

...

At the foot of Wanhua Peak.

"Shizhen, your master has become the Master of the Dragon Gate. Does that mean you are now the Crown Prince of the Dragon Gate!?"

An Inner Sect Disciple from Wanhua Institute looked at Du Shizhen, asking enviously.

Du Shizhen had experienced quite a lot over the years; he had his own understanding of the Jianghu.

He shook his head.

"The Master is the Master, I am me."

He didn’t explain much.

The disciple showed a bit of regret.

He still wanted to curry favor with someone influential.

After he left, Du Shizhen’s smile could no longer be contained; he turned and ran into the valley.

"Father, my master has become the new Dragon Gate Sect Leader!"

...

Shouyang Prefecture

Inside a luxurious estate.

The Jiang Family is the main force in Zouchuan Dao against the barbarians, naturally, many of the younger generation have gone to the battlefield, and those staying in Shouyang Prefecture gather together daily.

While catching up, they share news they’ve gathered.

It’s like preparing for themselves when they actually go to the Southern Sichuan battlefield.

But today.

The focus of the topic was not on the Southern Sichuan battlefield.

Many Jiang family members looked at the quiet girl sitting aside.

"Zi Yun, I heard you’ve secretly made a lifelong commitment with the new Dragon Gate Sect Leader?"

"What lifelong commitment? Zirong, can you even speak? With Xu Guang Sect Leader’s charisma, in eight years going from a nobody to his current stature, how could he do such frivolous things?"

"Hehe, I certainly know Xu Guang Sect Leader is astonishingly powerful, but who knows what some people are thinking? Do you all agree?"

"Exactly, if the relationship was really good, he wouldn’t visit when he returns to Zouchuan Dao."

Jiang Zi Yun remained calm from start to finish, gently stroking the little mink in her arms.

Not uttering a single word.

Jiang Zi Rong looked at Jiang Zi Yun, jealousy flashing in her eyes.

She, as the illegitimate daughter of Marquis Boyuan from the Jiang family, although nominally a collateral relative, in truth, the resources and information she could access daily were far superior to most present. Though she didn’t know much, the Jiang family elders had once tried to set up Jiang Zi Yun and Xu Guang. Despite Xu Guang leaving due to a crime, it’s not widely known how far Jiang Zi Yun and Xu Guang’s relationship has gone.

’Someone like Xu Guang, is he someone you, Jiang Zi Yun, deserve?’

...

Dragon Gate.

Chujiang River cuts through Dragon Gate like a long knife, flowing incessantly like a giant dragon.

Dragon Gate was built leaning against the mountain and initially, there was no Chuanbei Prefecture. It’s only because Dragon Gate’s mountain gate is located in the area of Tiger’s Mouth Waterfall along Chujiang River. Due to Dragon Gate’s prosperity and the naturally favorable Feng Shui of the place,

Six hundred years ago, with the support of the then Emperor of the Great Zhou, Chuanbei Prefecture was established here.

This was the first time Xu Guang saw the world-renowned Tiger’s Mouth Waterfall, a drop of a full four hundred meters! This is an incredible height; to form such a waterfall shows the abundant water resources of Chujiang River.

From afar, the mountain resembles a crouching tiger, and the entire waterfall looks like an open beast’s mouth.

No wonder it’s named Tiger’s Mouth Waterfall, it really does resemble a tiger’s mouth.

He stood beneath the waterfall, Ah Wei already beginning to get excited.

Since arriving at Dragon Gate, it had become somewhat ecstatic.

Here, it had already caught a whiff of rich Dragon Blood.

It had a premonition, it would advance to Fourth Grade here.

Li Qian followed behind Xu Guang, "The Secret Vault of Dragon Gate was not built by the Dragon Gate, but by our Imperial Family, hidden away when establishing Chuanbei Prefecture — just under Tiger’s Mouth Waterfall."

He looked relaxed; with Nanxuan dead, his biggest threat was gone, feeling a freedom he had never felt before.
