Riding on his colorful back, Mu Xuan soared into the sky. Looking at the bustling city, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Half a year ago, he was still unable to cultivate because of the curse. Half a year later, not only was he able to cultivate normally, his cultivation speed was also much faster than an average person.
A few months ago, they were shocked that they could pull up tens of thousands of people. A few months later, several hundred thousand people had already gathered in Heavenly Return City.
One month ago, he was still facing a life and death crisis and had almost been killed by Zhong Bugui. Now, even if he faced a true Deity Stage expert, he had the strength to fight them. Adding Liu Quan and the other three who had just broken through, he already had six peak Deity Stage experts under his command.
"The sky returns to the earth. The grand ceremony shall begin now!"
Mu Xuan was awoken by Liu Zixuan, who had come to take charge of the ceremony. It was only then that he found out that the time for the Marquis' Ceremony had come.
He signaled for the seven colors to soar into the sky, giving everyone present a shocking appearance. Only then did he lead the three, nine, and ten generals onto the stage.
Aside from Mu Xuan himself, everyone was a Deity Stage expert. Such a line-up had indeed shocked everyone present. Even though there were quite a few forces in Liao Gu Town, who would dare to send so many experts? After all, a Deity Stage expert was a cornerstone of any power.
Amidst the discussions, the Feudal Lord Ceremony proceeded in an orderly manner. When it was about to end, a discordant voice rang out. Although Mu Xuan was mentally prepared, he was still a little nervous because the person who spoke was not of ordinary weight. Furthermore, he didn't resemble a marquis like the Marquis of Heaven, but rather the true royal family of the Lu Kingdom.
"I said that the heavens are waiting for the earth to return. Your Great Song will carry out the Feudal Lord Grand Ceremony. I wonder if it will be the same as my Lu Kingdom?"
Although he was not as old as Liu Quan, he still held more authority than Liu Quan. When he saw that the grand ceremony he presided over was disturbed, he said impatiently, "Lu Yan, what are you trying to do? Don't forget, this place is not within the sphere of influence of your Lu Kingdom! "
"It is indeed not within the sphere of influence of my Lu Kingdom, but let me tell you Liu Zixuan, this isn't within your borders!"
Without waiting for Liu Zixuan to speak, Liu Quan laughed loudly and said, "Zixuan, what's the point of wasting so much time talking to these people who break their promises! "It's not worth it. We'll just continue."
Liu Zixuan hadn't been in the Immortal Ancient City for very long, so he didn't know what had happened in the Immortal Ancient City. Thus, he didn't understand why this never-before-seen Brother Wang would say that Lu Yan didn't keep his word.
"Humph!" If he himself does not come looking for trouble with the Heaven, then it does not mean that he has the will of Lu Yan! "
Liu Quan twitched his mouth and stopped talking, because he couldn't suppress Mu Xuan's momentum. After all, Mu Xuan was the main character today. Although he carried the title of prince, he was only a lieutenant general under Mu Xuan in Returning to the City.
At this time, Mei Ping had already explained to Liu Zixuan what happened in the Immortal Ancient City, so Liu Quan stopped talking. He opened his mouth and said, "So that's how it is. Could it be that you are dissatisfied with the Sky Heaven Marquis, and are purposefully looking for trouble with him? "
After these words were spoken, Lu Yan's expression immediately changed, because he could understand the meaning of this period of time. He wanted to sow discord between him and the Sky Lord; how could he allow this to happen? Otherwise, if he angered the Marquis of Heaven, it would be bad for him. He didn't want to swallow his anger though, so he gave a look to a young man who understood and started to look for Mu Xuan.
Following that, many other powers came looking for trouble as the Feudal Lords Ceremony was not yet complete. As long as they could stop this, Mu Xuan would not be able to become marquis and he would not have the qualifications to develop his own forces.
But once the dukedom was completed and the identity of a duke couldn't be changed, Mu Xuan would have the right to interfere in Jiang Shu's affairs, and they would suffer some injuries. It was precisely because of this that they agreed to work with the Lu and Ru kingdoms to delay Mu Xuan's dukedom.
However, they didn't have to worry too much about Mu Xuan, who was being stripped of his foundation. However, the five of them had extraordinary statuses, so they had all accepted the verbal attack.
Liu Zixuan took this opportunity to silently carry out the grand ceremony. Under Liu Rong's persuasion, Mu Xuan endured all the provocations and paid attention to the grand ceremony.
Seeing that his scheme was about to succeed, Lu Yan couldn't help but to open his mouth and start booing. Just as he was about to attack Mu Xuan, he realized that the atmosphere in the entire Heavenly Return City was changing.
At this moment, he finally understood why Mu Xuan had always been patient and allowed Mei Ping and the other four to take over. He had been secretly conducting the Feudal Lord Ceremony and fooling everyone.
"Little Prince, what should we do? Right now, we cannot do such a thing. The greater picture of the Heavenly Return City has already been linked to the Great Song, so we cannot stop it. "
"We'll just wait and see. There's someone here who hates him more than we do. I refuse to believe that those fellows will continue to endure." After he had finished speaking, Lu Yan turned Mu Xuan to a corner where there were four to five experts at the peak of the Deity Stage. However, they had been silent from the start and had allowed everything to happen silently.
One of them laughed sarcastically, "So what if the general situation and the Great Song are one? If my Immortal Ancient Mountain wants you dead, will you still be able to live in peace? "
This single sentence silenced all the powers that were arguing intensely with Mei Ping and the rest. None of them could afford to provoke an existence as powerful as Immortal Ancient Mountain, not to mention the Demon Lord. How could they, the leaders of Liangu Town, not have heard of him?
He knew that Immortal Ancient Mountain was a truly powerful existence within the demon race, and he also knew why Immortal Ancient Mountain, which was controlled by the Demon Lord, was involved. That was why Mu Xuan wasn't worried at all, because he believed that the Demon Lord wouldn't go against the rules that he had set with the members of the Grand Ice Manor and Tang Dynasty, nor would he give out the Consolidating Equipment Pill to them.
However, at this moment, the seven colors that had always remained silent, with bloodshot eyes, roared angrily at the few people who had opened their mouths in the corner.
