Wu Shattered Star River

In the northwest of the Radiant Path, there was a large city called Xiliang City. Because this city was located at the intersection of the four regions, it was exceptionally prosperous and was one of the largest channels for smuggling.

Normally, various races gathered here, and one could even see merchants from the Kan and Fire Spirit races walking around. The restaurants and eateries inside were packed every day, and people came and went at the city gate in a constant stream.

However, the city had been sealed off for the past few days, with only departures allowed and no entry. Moreover, the city was full of troops, and any unrest among the citizens would be immediately suppressed.

At first, the citizens of the city were a little confused and even panicked, thinking that a great war was about to break out again.

Later, they learned that it was because the Heavenly Palace was about to open, and three ancestors from the Radiant Path were coming over, so the city lord ordered a curfew.

It wasn't so much that they were afraid of the citizens or spies in the city assassinating the three ancestors and the ten genius elites who were going in, but rather that they were afraid of offending these important figures from the Radiant Society.

"Buzz ~"

The city lord of the city was a Dao Ancestor realm cultivator and a member of the Pei family. He led the team to greet them respectfully.

Domain Ancestor waved his hand and said, "Let's talk inside!"

The city lord quickly invited the group of experts and geniuses into the city lord's mansion. After entering and taking their seats, Domain Ancestor asked, "Have the Thunder Sect and Sea God Race arrived?"

The city lord reported, "According to the reports from the scouts, the experts from the Thunder Sect have arrived in the nearby city. It is estimated that after learning of your arrival, they will soon come to join us. As for the Sea God Race… this subordinate has not received any news!"

Jiang Han's gaze turned to Ao Xier beside him. Ao Xier shook her head and said, "I don't know either."

"Let's wait!"

Jiang Han said, "Anyway, it's still early, so there's no rush. I estimate they will arrive in the next few days."

"Yes!"

Domain Ancestor waved his hand and said, "Then you all go back to rest and recharge your batteries. Pei Sui, don't go out and fool around. Stay in seclusion for a few days."

"Yes!"

Pei Sui and the others all bowed and retreated. Under the watchful eyes of the three ancestors, they didn't have the guts to fool around.

Jiang Han led Ao Xier away. Two pavilions were arranged for them to live in, but Ao Xier followed Jiang Han into one of the pavilions, making Pei Sui and the others' eyes turn red with envy.

Jiang Han and Ao Xier didn't feel anything was wrong. Jiang Han treated Ao Xier as his younger sister, and Ao Xier had lived on Azure Peak for so long that she was used to it.

After waiting for two days, the experts and elites from the Thunder Sect arrived, led by Lei Zhen.

Jiang Han and Ancestor Xu came forward to greet them. After welcoming the Thunder Sect cultivators in, Domain Ancestor arranged a welcoming banquet to entertain them.

As allies, and because of Jiang Han, the relationship between the two sides was very harmonious, and the atmosphere of the banquet was very good.

Lei Zhen sat next to Jiang Han. Seeing Ao Xier sitting on the other side of Jiang Han, he revealed a meaningful smile and transmitted his voice, "Not bad, Jiang Han, you even got your hands on a little beauty from the Sea God Race?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Jiang Han glared at him and transmitted his voice, "I treat her like my own sister!"

"I understand, I understand!"

Lei Zhen smiled lewdly and transmitted his voice, "I have quite a few sisters like that too, dozens of them. Many of my sisters are married, and we still maintain very close relationships."

"Beast!"

Jiang Han cursed in his voice transmission, "They're all married, and you're still messing around? Are you even human? Aren't you afraid that if things get out, your Thunder Dao's reputation will be ruined?"

"You don't understand!"

Lei Zhen smiled and transmitted his voice, "A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, and stealing is not as good as not being able to steal. The feeling of stealing someone is very refreshing, you can try it later."

"Moreover… do you think their husbands don't know? They all turn a blind eye, and some men even take the initiative to arrange for their wives to seduce me."

"With your status and power, if you want to play around, I estimate there are many rich wives who will create opportunities as long as you give them a wink. The taste of stealing another man's wife is really exciting, you can really try it later…"

"Get lost!"

Jiang Han turned his head away and stopped paying attention to Lei Zhen. This guy was hopeless, only thinking about playing around all day and not striving for progress.

Lei Zhen's talent was actually very strong, but he just loved to play. If he had focused on cultivation, he would probably have broken through to the eighth level of the Dao Ancestor realm by now.

But on second thought, he was a son of a wealthy family, the next sect master of the Thunder Sect, and there were countless experts above Lei Zhen in the Lei family, so Lei Zhen had no pressure at all. It was already good that he hadn't become a纨绔公子 (wán kù gōng zǐ - playboy), bullying the weak every day.

After the banquet, everyone rested. There were still ten days before the Heavenly Palace opened, and it only took half a day to go up from here, so there was no need to rush at all.

Five days later, the Sea God Race arrived.

However, the experts of the Sea God Race disguised their appearances and entered the city in a low-key manner. From the outside, one could not tell that they were from the Sea God Race.

Jiang Han received the news and personally went to welcome them with Ao Xier, Pei Sui, and the others.

As for Domain Ancestor Xu, Ancestor Fan, and the others, they did not show up. This was decided by the Pei family's clan king, to not form an alliance with the Sea God Race for the time being.

Jiang Han taking Pei Sui and the others was neither a breach of etiquette nor too close, leaving some room for the Radiant Society to advance or retreat.

Three ancestors from the Sea God Race came, led by the Great Elder Ao Tianding himself. The Radiant Society not dispatching a Dao Ancestor realm cultivator to welcome and meet them was within the Sea God Race's expectations, so they didn't care.

The Sea God Race's appearance this time was actually just a test to see the reactions of the major forces.

The Radiant Society's reaction was very normal, and the Sea God Race had been mentally prepared before their emergence.

In the evening, Jiang Han held a banquet, and Lei Zhen actually came uninvited.

The Thunder Dao had obviously received the news, but the Dao Ancestor realm ninth level cultivator didn't come. Lei Zhen coming uninvited actually represented a certain attitude, which made Ao Tianding and the others very satisfied.

The city lord was instructed to arrange a huge manor outside the city for the Sea God Race, and they didn't live in the city lord's mansion, giving them very high treatment.

A few more days passed, and it was the day of departure.

The Sea God Race did not leave with the Radiant Path and Thunder Dao. Ao Tianding was very sensible. Since the Radiant Society and Thunder Dao did not intend to form an alliance, they would naturally not try to force themselves on them. Ao Xier also left with them.

Domain Ancestor led a group of experts and a group of elites to the River of Gods. After entering the River of Gods, Jiang Han thought that they would fly directly towards the Ninth Heaven.

But he didn't expect Domain Ancestor to lead the team to fly down the River of Gods. When they reached the middle of the River of Gods, he actually flew down below the river.

Ordinary cultivators did not dare to enter below the River of Gods, but since there was a group of Dao Ancestor realm ninth level cultivators here, there was naturally no problem.

After entering below the River of Gods, Jiang Han discovered that there was actually a huge vortex inside. The vortex was filled with radiant light, and it seemed to be a space-time passage.

Domain Ancestor and Ancestor Fan took the lead and flew inside. After waiting for a moment, Ancestor Xu waved his hand and said, "Enter!"

After Ancestor Xu finished speaking, he transmitted his voice to Jiang Han alone: "After you go in, immediately enter Black Blood Mountain."

"Okay!"

Jiang Han nodded. Ancestor Xu led a group of cultivators in, followed by the Thunder Dao cultivators.

A dozen breaths of time after the Thunder Dao cultivators entered, a group of experts shot over, and the Sea God Race followed closely behind, entering the space-time passage.
